Abstract

Macrovascular and microvascular complications were evaluated in participants from metropolitan versus non-metropolitan cities during the three years of LANDMARC, a nationwide prospective observational study (CTRI/2017/05/008452). LANDMARC included participants with type 2 diabetes (T2D) who were on ≥2 antihyperglycemic medications. Of the total 6222 participants, 2375 and 3847 were from metropolitan and non-metropolitan cities, respectively. Age, T2D duration, and baseline A1C were similar across groups (Table). At the end of three-years, microvascular complications were significantly higher in participants from non-metropolitan than metropolitan cities (13.13% vs. 4.89%; p<0.0001). Neuropathy was the most common microvascular complication in both metropolitan and non-metropolitan cities. Among macrovascular complications, heart failure (p=0.0160) was reported more in non-metropolitan than metropolitan cities (Table). The LANDMARC data demonstrates that T2D participants from Indian 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; Abbott, Bayer Inc., Novo Nordisk, Sanofi.
