Popis: | AIMS Better understanding of the timeline and risk factors for the appearance of complications in pediatric Type-1-diabetes is key for developing prevention strategies. We studied endothelial markers and their determinants in adolescents with Type-1-diabetes at different time points from diagnosis. METHODS A cross-sectional study of 58 adolescents, mean age 15.0 ± 2.4 years; 20 with recent-onset Type-1-diabetes, 20 with over 7 years of Type-1-diabetes and 18 controls. Clinical and biochemical data were collected. Fingertip arterial reactive hyperemia (EndoPAT) and carotid intima-media-thickness (cIMT) were measured to assess endothelial function and structure. RESULTS Compared to controls, individuals with prolonged Type-1-diabetes had higher mean cIMT (0.49 ± 0.07 mm vs. 0.43 ± 0.05 mm p = 0.021) and maximal cIMT (0.61 ± 0.08 mm 0.52 ± 0.08 mm, p = 0.025). Endothelin-1 levels were significantly lower in subjects with prolonged Type-1-diabetes (1.2 ± 1.0 pg/ml) compared to controls (3.0 ± 1.7, p = 0.008 pg/ml); they negatively correlated with the mean cIMT (c = - 0.291, p = 0.031) and mean 6 months hemoglobin A1c (c = - 0.301, p = 0.022) and positively correlated with mean c-peptide levels (c = 0.356, p = 0.006) and the weekly exercise time (c = 0.485, p |
