Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Microvascular ComplicationsFrom enrollment to the end of the participant's participation or 4 weeksTo describe the rates of microvascular complications (retinopathy, nephropathy, and peripheral neuropathy) and their relationships with HbA1c and diabetes duration in diverse cohort of adolescents and adults with CFRD for ≥5 years.
Macrovascular SurrogatesFrom enrollment to the end of the participant's participation or 4 weeksTo describe macrovascular surrogates (resting blood pressure (BP), fasting lipids) and their relationship with HbA1c, diabetes duration and BMI in a diverse cohort with established CFRD.

Secondary
