Abstract

There are few studies on type 2 diabetes complications from Indian metropolitan and non-metropolitan cities. Macrovascular and microvascular complications during the second year of LANDMARC, a 3-year nationwide prospective observational study (CTRI/2017/05/008452) , were evaluated in participants from metropolitan versus non-metropolitan cities. LANDMARC included participants with T2D who were on ≥2 antihyperglycemic medications. Of the total 6234 participants, 2376 and 3858 were from metropolitan and non-metropolitan cities, respectively. Age, T2D duration, and baseline A1C were similar across groups. Microvascular complications were significantly higher in participants from non-metropolitan than metropolitan cities (12.93% vs. 4.65%; p<0.0001) during the 2 years. Neuropathy was the most common microvascular complication in both metropolitan and non-metropolitan cities. Among macrovascular complications, a greater number of participants reported heart failure (p=0.0160) and CV deaths in non-metropolitan cities than metropolitan cities (Table) . The present data from India demonstrates that participants from non-metropolitan cities may have higher complications, particularly microvascular, and may need to be better understood through future studies. The LANDMARC results elicit a pattern of disease progression among participants with T2D. Disclosure S. Kalra: Speaker's Bureau; Boehringer Ingelheim International GmbH, Novo Nordisk A/S, Sanofi.
