Morbidity and Mortality in Diabetics In the Framingham Population: Sixteen Year Follow-up Study
TLDR
In a sixteen year follow-up study in Framingham, it was found that diabetics in general show an increased morbidity and mortality from all cardiovascular causes and Insulin-treated diabetic women showed the greatest relative mortality from coronary heart disease.Abstract:Â
In a sixteen year follow-up study in Framingham, it was found that diabetics in general show an increased morbidity and mortality from all cardiovascular causes. Insulin-treated diabetic women showed the greatest relative mortality from coronary heart disease. Diabetics were found to have higher lipid values, more hypertension and more obesity, even prior to diagnosis. When all the associated risk factors, individually or together, were taken into consideration their presence could not entirely explain the increase in cardiovascular morbidity and mortality experienced by the diabetic. An as yet unknown factor appears to be present in diabetics that could be responsible for much of the higher incidence of cardiovascular complications in diabetics.read more

TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared tight control of blood pressure with less tight control aiming at a blood pressure of <150/85 mm Hg with the use of an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor captopril or a beta blocker atenolol as main treatment.

MRC/BHF Heart Protection Study of cholesterol-lowering with simvastatin in 5963 people with diabetes: a randomised placebo-controlled trial.
TL;DR: Direct evidence is provided that cholesterol-lowering therapy is beneficial for people with diabetes even if they do not already have manifest coronary disease or high cholesterol concentrations and statin therapy should now be considered routinely for all diabetic patients at sufficiently high risk of major vascular events, irrespective of their initial cholesterol concentrations.
