Abstract

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). CVD occurs much earlier in people with T1D than in the general population, and several risk factors have been identified some of which are modifiable. Risk prediction models and imaging tests to detect early signs of CVD have not been extensively validated. Strategies to promote cardiovascular health (CVH) in T1D include identifying risk factors, early treatment to achieve CVH targets, and improving the education of health care providers and people with T1D.

Keywords: Cardiovascular disease risk; Cardiovascular health; Prevention; Type 1 diabetes.
