“…The prevalence of hypercholesterolaemia in the present study was similar to that found in the Wisconsin Study (46%) [36] and by Winocour et al . [37]. In the EURODIAB Study, 45% of patients had LDL‐C levels > 3.35 mmol/L, which is associated with an increased cardiovascular risk in adults with diabetes [38], but 86% of women and 69% of men had HDL‐C levels > 1.15 mmol/L, which is considered to be a low‐risk category [38].…”

“…The prevalence of hypercholesterolemia in IDDM women was slightly higher than that in men (13 vs. 8%, respectively). However, because some studies do not reveal significant excess of dyslipidemia in IDDM women (16,17), other risk factors may be contributing to the excess of atherosclerosis in IDDM women. The true prevalence of dyslipidemia in IDDM patients, however, should be higher because older patients (>40 years of age), those with proteinuria, or those with a longer duration of diabetes were excluded.…”

“…Little data exists on lipoproteins and CHD in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus. As noted above, dyslipidaemia in well‐controlled type 1 diabetes mellitus is not more common than in the general population[14–16], although there may be subtle abnormalities in the composition of circulating lipoproteins[14]. However, in many patients with type 1 diabetes development of nephropathy leads to dyslipidaemia with elevated levels of total and low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, elevated triglycerides and low levels of high density lipoprotein (HDL)‐cholesterol.…”
