A large multicenter cohort study, the DAI study, is being performed on patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who are followed by diabetic care units in Italy, to study the prevalence and incidence of macrovascular complications. The reference population consists of all patients visited at the participating units in the period September 1998-June 1999. Patients were randomly chosen so as to create a sample representative of the diabetic population visited at the units. Overall, 201 Italian diabetic care units participated in the study and 19,570 patients were included in the study. The prevalence of macrovascular complications in Italian type 2 diabetics is 15.6% (17.2% in males and 14.0% in females). Acute miocardial infarction was the most prevalent (7.6%) complication among males, while angina was more frequent (9.3%) among females.
