Abstract 50: Cardiovascular Event Rates Among Adults with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus at Risk of Cardiovascular Events in the Large Population-based Study to Help Improve Early Evaluation and Management of Risk Factors Leading to Diabetes (SHIELD) [Poster Session I]
Conclusions: T2DM individuals at risk for CVD events had significant incidence of MI, stroke, and revascularization in this large US population-based study. T2DM adults with established CVD are at higher risk of CVD events than those with no CVD but have multiple risk factors.
