The objective of this study was to assess whether poor sleep is independently associated with cardiovascular disease in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). ⋯ Poor sleep quality and higher RDW levels are associated with macrovascular disease in a T2DM population. Increased BMI as well as depression also appear to have an independent role in subclinical atherosclerosis, as assessed by CIMT.
