Population
Patients with type 1 diabetes
Aged between 13 – 40 at randomisation
Excluded Cardiovascular disease
BP > 140/90
Fasting cholesterol > 3 SD above age and sex-specific means
Mean 17 years follow up

Intervention
≥ 3 daily injections with insulin, OR
Insulin pump
4 self-monitored glucose measurements/24hrs
Target glucose 3.9 – 6.7 mmol/l
Target HbA1c < 6.05%
At the end of DCCT, conventionally treated group offered intensive treatment
Differences between 2 groups less over 11 yrs of EDIC

Comparison
Conventional therapy = No glucose goals beyond those needed to prevent
symptoms of hyperglycaemia and hypoglycaemia
1-2 daily injections of insulin
At the end of DCCT – 7.4% vs 9.1% (p<0.01) Conventional group offered intensive treatment
HbA1c differences narrowed over 11 years of EDIC

Outcome
Primary outcome = time to first cardiovascular event Non-fatal MI/stroke
Death due to CVD
Subclinical MI
Angina
Need for angioplasty/CABD
Effect of HbA1c during EDIC was not assessed

Medications
No medication history during DCCT but use of ACE inhibitors discouraged and statins not available – microalbuminuria associated with 2.5 x increased risk of CVD
Year 11 of EDIC – significant difference in use of beta-blockers: conventional 7% vs intensive 3% (p<0.05)

Discussion
Should we intensively treat early then relax? i.e. “metabolic memory”
What role do beta blockers play in diabetes and cardiovascular disease risk
Low numbers of events
Some CV events subjective
High number of silent MIs
