Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
To assess the effect of liraglutide on carotid intima media thickness in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus.Baseline and 6 months

Change from baseline measure of right carotid intima media thickness with doppler ultrasound at 6 months in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus who meet inclusion criteria.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
To assess the effect of liraglutide on cardiovascular risk factors, cardiometabolic markers Laboratory studies (HbA1c)0, 3 and 6 months

Laboratory studies will be taken: HbA1c at baseline, 3 and 6 months.

To assess the effect of liraglutide on cardiovascular risk factors, cardiometabolic markers (BMI, weight and abdominal circumference)0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 months

Somatometry: weight will be measured at baseline and every month until completing 6 months.

To assess the effect of liraglutide on cardiovascular risk factors, cardiometabolic markers. Somatometry (BMI, weight and abdominal circumference)0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 months

Somatometry: abdominal circumference will be measured at baseline and every month until completing 6 months.

To assess the effect of liraglutide on cardiovascular risk factors, cardiometabolic markers Laboratory studies (total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, triglycerides, non-HDL cholesterol)0, 3 and 6 months

Laboratory studies will be taken: complete lipid profile (total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, triglycerides, non-HDL cholesterol) at baseline, 3 and 6 months.

To assess the effect of liraglutide on cardiovascular risk factors, cardiometabolic markers. eGDR (Estimated glucose disposal rate)0, 3 and 6 months

Estimated glucose disposal rate will be calculated at baseline, 3 and 6 months.
