Abstract
In diabetic adults with no previous cardiovascular events, treatment to current targets for lipids and systolic blood pressure reduces atherosclerosis progression and when more aggressive targets are met, atherosclerosis regresses. The aggressive targets for LDL-C and non-HDL-C appeared to be the main determinants of CIMT regression and were more predictive of this outcome than changes in LDL-P or apoB.
