Associations of insulin resistance and beta-cell function with abnormal lipid profile in newly diagnosed diabetes.
Abnormal lipids are strong predictors of cardiovascular disease in type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, the potential associations of insulin resistance (IR) and beta-cell function (BCF) with abnormal lipids in newly diagnosed T1DM or T2DM patients are not fully understood. ⋯ High IR had different associations with the risk of dyslipidemia in newly diagnosed T1DM and T2DM patients, suggesting that early treatment that improves IR may benefit abnormal lipid metabolism.
