The aim of our study was to examine the association between pulse wave velocity (PWV) and glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) and low density lipoprotein (LDL-C) level in patient with T2DM. (1,2) Methods: We performed a prospective observational study, outpatient measurement included: aorta PWV measured by arteriograph, HbA1c and LDL-C level. The cut off-points are: PWV: 9 m/s, LDL-C: 2,5 mmol/l, HbA1c: 6%. In the first part of the analysis were included 169 patients with T2DM (106 men, 63 women, average age: 59 year), and were 152 patients (99 men, 53 women, average age: 59 year) in the second part.
