Brief Summary: To determine the role of dyslipidemia markers of endothelial dysfunction genetic susceptibility and dietary fat intake on the development of cardiovascular disease CVD complications in Type II diabetes mellitus
Detailed Description: BACKGROUND

The cardiovascular disease complications of Type II diabetes mellitus are a major public health problem The research is designed to provide new information about the relation of specific biomarkers genes and diet on risk of CVD complications in the high-risk Type II diabetes mellitus population

DESIGN NARRATIVE

The study assesses biochemical markers of dyslipidemia and endothelial dysfunction and omega-3 fatty acids in relation to risk of CVD among men and women diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in two large ongoing cohort studies the Nurses Health Study NHS and Health Professionals Follow-up Study HPFS By 1998 12600 confirmed type 2 diabetic cases had already accumulated in the two cohorts By the year 2002 5507 blood samples prospectively collected from persons with previously or newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes will be available for analyses Using this unparalleled resource the investigators will evaluate 1 The relationship between plasma levels of cell adhesion molecules ie sICAM-1 sVCAM-1 E-selectin diabetic dyslipidemia and risk of CVD among diabetics 2 the association between Lpa concentrations and risk of CVD among diabetics independent of high triglycerides and low HDL 3 the association between long-term intakes of omega-3 fatty acids and CVD risk in diabetes The main NHS and HPFS grants will provide follow-up and documentation of CVD in addition to covariate information Overall the large size of these cohorts the prospective design the high follow-up rates and the availability of archived blood specimens provide a unique opportunity to study the relationship between diabetic dyslipidemia and risk of CVD in an extremely cost-efficient and timely manner In addition these two cohorts provide an unusual opportunity to compare lipid profiles and endothelial markers of CVD between diabetic men and women
