- Fasting glucose levels, incident diabetes, subclinical atherosclerosis and cardiovascular events in apparently healthy adults: A 12-year longitudinal study(2016) SITNIK, Debora; SANTOS, Itamar S.; GOULART, Alessandra C.; STANIAK, Henrique L.; MANSON, JoAnn E.; LOTUFO, Paulo A.; BENSENOR, Isabela M.We aimed to study the association between fasting plasma glucose, diabetes incidence and cardiovascular burden after 10-12years. We evaluated diabetes and cardiovascular events incidences, carotid intima-media thickness and coronary artery calcium scores in ELSA-Brasil (the Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Adult Health) baseline (2008-2010) of 1536 adults without diabetes in 1998. We used regression models to estimate association with carotid intima-media thickness (in mm), coronary artery calcium scores (in Agatston points) and cardiovascular events according to fasting plasma glucose in 1998. Adjusted diabetes incidence rate was 9.8/1000 person-years (95% confidence interval: 7.7-13.6/1000 person-years). Incident diabetes was positively associated with higher fasting plasma glucose. Fasting plasma glucose levels 110-125mg/dL were associated with higher carotid intima-media thickness (=0.028; 95% confidence interval: 0.003-0.053). Excluding those with incident diabetes, there was a borderline association between higher carotid intima-media thickness and fasting plasma glucose 110-125mg/dL (=0.030; 95% confidence interval: -0.005 to 0.065). Incident diabetes was associated with higher carotid intima-media thickness (=0.034; 95% confidence interval: 0.015-0.053), coronary artery calcium scores 400 (odds ratio=2.84; 95% confidence interval: 1.17-6.91) and the combined outcome of a coronary artery calcium scores 400 or incident cardiovascular event (odds ratio=3.50; 95% confidence interval: 1.60-7.65). In conclusion, fasting plasma glucose in 1998 and incident diabetes were associated with higher cardiovascular burden.
