Introduction and Objective: Coronary artery calcium score (CACS) is an effective marker to stratify cardiovascular risk. Compared to type 2 diabetes (T2D) Ketosis Prone Diabetes (KPD) has an atypical presentation marked by ketosis during decompensation. We compared CACS and cardiovascular events (CVE) in KPD and T2D.Methods: It is a retrospective observational study (2014-2024) of KPD and T2D patients attending the diabetology day hospital and undergoing CACS evaluation. We recorded CVE occurring after CACS evaluation: non-fatal myocardial infarction (MI), coronary revascularization (CR), heart failure (HF), obliterative arteriopathy of the lower limbs (OA).Results: A total of 1244 patients (106 KPD and 1138 T2DM) were included in the analysis. Their characteristics are presented in Table 1. In the study population, 66.8% had CACS <100 and 16.2% >400. Median KPD CACS compared to T2D was lower (p<0.0001). Percentage of KPD with CACS <100 was higher and CACS >400 lower compared to T2D (p=0.001). Odds ratio (OR) for CACS <400 was 5 times higher for KPD 5.37 (1.95 – 14.75, p<0.0001) (95% CI). In multivariate logistic regression, OA, limb amputation and albumin/creatinine ratio (ACR) were significantly associated to CACS >400 (p<0.05)Conclusion: KPD showed lower CACS and lower frequency of OA occurrence compared to T2D. However recorded MI were similar in both groups.
