Validation and Comparison of ASCVD Risk Score and SCORE2-Diabetes in Japanese Patients with Diabetes Mellitus

Diabetes mellitus is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD), and prediction models are recommended to identify patients with diabetes mellitus at high CVD risk. However, no risk prediction models have been developed for Japanese patients with diabetes mellitus. Therefore, we aimed to validate the Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease (ASCVD) risk score and Systematic Coronary Risk Evaluation 2-Diabetes (SCORE2-Diabetes) model in Japanese patients with diabetes mellitus.
