Abstract: Aims/hypothesis Although cardiovascular disease is the biggest cause of death in people with diabetes, microvascular complications have a significant impact on quality of life and financial burden of the disease. Little is known about the progression of microvascular dysfunction in the early stages of type 2 diabetes before the occurrence of clinically apparent complications. We aimed to explore the determinants of endothelial-dependent and-independent microvascular function progression over a 3 year period, i… Show more

“…Thus, the studies by us and others suggest that antidiabetic drugs may have divergent effects on glucose control and microvascular function, and their relation to future cardiovascular events 37. The observed weight reduction (−3.9%) is unlikely to change microvascular function since previous studies have shown that a reduction in body weight of 5% or more of is associated with clear benefits in endothelial-dependent microvascular function 44. Our secondary analyses in patients who tolerated the higher dose of exenatide for the reminder for the study suggest improved skin microvascular reactivity, which was not seen in patients continuing on the lower dose, while HbA1c did not change.…”

“…Reactive hyperaemia index (RHI) was calculated as the ratio of postocclusion to preocclusion signal amplitudes as a marker of endothelial-dependent vasodilation. Urinary albumin to creatinine ratio (UACR), a marker of endothelial dysfunction, was obtained by a random spot urine sample obtained during the study visit with a detection limit for albumin of 3.0 mg/l [18].…”

“…BMI (calculated from height and weight) and waist circumference were obtained using a standard protocol. Total and HDL cholesterol, and HbA1c were measured from participants' fasting blood samples by the Exeter Pathology Services (Royal Devon and Exeter NHS Foundation Trust, Exeter, UK) [18]. SBP and DBP, PP, MAP and heart rate were measured from the brachial BP assessment as described above.…”

“…Urinary albumin to creatinine ratio was obtained by a random spot urine sample obtained during the study visit with a detection limit for albumin of 3.0 mg/L. 21 Albuminuria (macro-albuminuria) was defined as the urinary albumin to creatinine ratio >25 mg/ mmol for men and 35 mg/mmol for women.…”
