Abstract

Purpose of review: To review the recent evidence for lipid management in type 1 diabetes (T1D) for cardiovascular risk reduction. Recent findings: Individuals with T1D are at increased risk for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, with atherosclerosis beginning as early as adolescence. Elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), triglycerides, and lipoprotein (a) are associated with increased cardiovascular risk in T1D. Although high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) in T1D is often normal or higher than in nondiabetic controls, HDL in T1D has structural alterations, which make it proatherogenic rather than cardioprotective. Similarly, although LDL-C is not particularly elevated in T1D, LDL still contributes to cardiovascular risk. Studies in individuals with diabetes have primarily included T2D participants, with a much smaller number of T1D participants; such studies have shown that lipid-lowering therapies, such as statins, ezetimibe, and proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitors reduce LDL-C levels and cardiovascular events in both those with and without diabetes. Individuals with T1D have increased cholesterol absorption, suggesting that ezetimibe may be particularly effective in T1D. Results of the REDUCE-IT trial show cardiovascular risk reduction from high-dose omega-3 fatty acid (Icosapent Ethyl) therapy in patients with diabetes (primarily type 2 diabetes), independent of triglyceride lowering, but similar data in T1D are currently lacking. Summary: Individuals with T1D are at high risk of cardiovascular disease, necessitating close lipid monitoring and management from adolescence through adulthood.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
