Is our treatment in type 1 diabetes mellitus (insulin therapy models, metabolic control) optimal for preventing cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy?

CONCLUSIONS: Optimization of metabolic control, especially the level of glycaemia, shows positive correlation with decreased frequency of the development of CAN. The results presented in this study draw attention to the high prevalence of CAN among T1DM patients. In addition, the study reveals the need for more intensive monitoring and treatment of hyperlipidaemia, despite good glycaemic control, especially in those over the age of 40 .
