Waist-to-Height Ratio Is Associated With the Risk of Coronary Artery Disease in Type 1 Diabetes: A 19-Year Cohort Study Obesity, kidney disease, and coronary artery disease (CAD) are interconnected. Here, the relationship between central obesity and CAD across albuminuria ca

New findings from the FinnDiane study: central obesity in type 1 diabetes matters. Even a 0.1-unit increase in waist-to-height ratio was associated with a 21% higher risk of coronary artery disease, and the association was most pronounced among those without kidney disease. doi.org/10.2337/dc25...

Cerebral microbleeds are associated with deficits in cognitive processing speed and executive functions in middle-aged adults with type 1 diabetes Adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D) have an increased risk of cerebral small vessel disease (cSVD)-related brain changes already in midlife, yet their s…

In middle-aged individuals with T1D, cerebral microbleeds were related to a subtle, yet systematic impairment in cognition. Results provide insight into the development of early cerebral small vessel disease-related cognitive changes already in midlife.

Individuals living with type 1 diabetes face a significantly elevated risk of myocardial infarction. A new study shows that the two main subtypes, STEMI and NSTEMI, behave differently over time.

Comparison of incidence patterns and risk profiles of ST-elevation and non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction in type 1 diabetes in Finland: a nationwide cohort study We report that STEMI and NSTEMI exhibit different incidence patterns depending on age and year of myocardial infarction. STEMI and NSTEMI also differed regarding risk profiles, demonstrating that myoc...

STEMI rates are falling in type 1 diabetes 📉 but NSTEMI rates are not📈 New data from the FinnDiane cohort show these two myocardial infarction subtypes have distinct risk profiles, with microvascular complications playing a key role in NSTEMI @helsinki.fi ➡️ www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

Our new #article on depression and adherence to cardioprotective medication in people with T1D is now published. Those prescribed cardioprotective therapy who had diagnosed depression or antidepressant purchases had higher odds of having poor rather than good adherence to cardioprotective therapy.

Huge congratiolations to Dr. Marika Eriksson for the second place in Finnish Diabetes Research Society's competition for the best thesis of the year! #ValtakunnallinenDiabetespaiva #diabetes #research

Excessive occupational sitting increases risk of cardiovascular events among working individuals with type 1 diabetes in the prospective Finnish Diabetic Nephropathy Study - Cardiovascular Diabetology Background Sedentary behavior, such as excessive sitting, increases risk of cardiovascular disease and premature mortality in the general population, but this has not been assessed in type 1 diabetes....

Today is #WorldDiabetesDay! The #FinnDiane Study highlights that reducing sitting at work can help people with #Type1Diabetes maintain cardiovascular health doi.org/10.1186/s129... Let’s make workplaces healthier for people with #diabetes: move more, sit less! #DiabetesAndTheWorkplace

Exome-Wide Analysis Identifies a Rare EXD3 Missense Variant Associated With Diabetic Kidney Disease Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a major complication of diabetes, with genetic factors contributing to its progression. Although genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified common variants...

Our new #article on diabetic kidney disease has been published! Using exome-wide analysis, the GENIE consortium identified a novel rare EXD3 variant linked to the diabetic kidney disease in T1D. Full study: www.kireports.org/article/S246...
