TL;DR
The risks for the development of ischemic stroke in both sexes and coronary heart disease in women were significantly higher in subjects with diabetes than in those with normal glucose tolerance even after adjustment for other confounding factors, but such association was not seen for coronaryHeart disease in men.
Abstract
Two cross-sectional surveys of diabetes mellitus using a 75-g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) conducted in the town of Hisayama showed that the prevalence of diabetes and other glucose intolerance statuses steeply increased during a 14-year period. In a prospective study of Hisayama residents, who underwent the OGTT at baseline, the risks for the development of ischemic stroke in both sexes and coronary heart disease in women were significantly higher in subjects with diabetes than in those with normal glucose tolerance even after adjustment for other confounding factors, but such association was not seen for coronary heart disease in men. Additionally, we observed a synergistic effect between diabetes and metabolic syndrome for the development of ischemic stroke and coronary heart disease.

A representation and interpretation of the area under a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve obtained by the "rating" method, or by mathematical predictions based on patient characteristics, is presented and it is shown that in such a setting the area represents the probability that a randomly chosen diseased subject is (correctly) rated or ranked with greater suspicion than a random chosen non-diseased subject.

CirculationInflammatory Cytokine Concentrations Are Acutely Increased by Hyperglycemia in Humans

Hyperglycemia acutely increases circulating cytokine concentrations by an oxidative mechanism, and this effect is more pronounced in subjects with IGT, which suggests a causal role for hyper glycemia in the immune activation of diabetes.

It is found that MetS is relatively common in diabetic patients with no history of CVD, and commonly used definitions of MetS, at least in their present forms, have limited clinical usefulness for Asian diabetic patients and may need some ethnic group-specific modifications for global use.
