PubMed
This site provides free access to the electronic archives of the United States National Library of Medicine (NLM). It includes links to online full-text articles at journal websites and other related Web resources. In addition to publisher supplied citations, PubMed provides access to MEDLINE, a bibliographic database covering the fields of medicine, nursing, dentistry,
veterinary medicine, the health care system and the preclinical sciences. MEDLINE contains over 12 million citations and abstracts from more than
4800 biomedical journals published in 70 countries worldwide. Most records are from English-language sources or have English abstracts.
United Kingdom Prospective Diabetes Study
(UKPDS)Cardiovascular Risk Engine
This validated cardiovascular
risk calculator is specific to Type 2 diabetes and is based on 53,000
patient-years of data from the
UK
Prospective Diabetes Study.
Risk calculators based on equations from the Framingham Heart Study tend
to underestimate risks for people with diabetes as this study included
relatively few diabetic subjects. The UKPDS Risk Engine also provides
an approximate 'margin of error' for each estimate. The risk engine can
be downloaded for free by individuals or non-profit entities, subject to
certain copyright restrictions. Also, the site includes an FAQ section
that describes the patient populations for which the risk engine has
been validated and provides other information on the use of the engine.
