Abstract

We aimed to study the association of copeptin with carotid intima-media thickness in 60 patients with type 1 diabetes (T1DM-patients). Our results suggest that copeptin might improve the stratification of cardiovascular risk in T1DM-patients. Further research is needed to determine the value in identifying carotid disease of this biochemical marker.<br /> (Copyright © 2021. Published by Elsevier Inc.)
