[The risk of cardiovascular death in type 2 diabetes]. 
To evaluate effects of metabolic disorders on the risk of cardiovascular death in patients with type II diabetes based on Framingham risk score.  We analyzed results of examination of 210 men and 210 women with type 2 diabetes who applied for medical care to the VM center of Endocrinology during 1997-2014.  A virtual control group was formed matching real patients in terms of the number, sex, age, and height having ideal body mass index, total cholesterol and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels.  The average risk of cardiovascular death in patients with type 2 diabetes was equal to 4,56±0,254% compared with 0,6±1,028% in the virtual control group.  The differences was significant (p <0,001).  The minimum risk for the patients of the two groups was estimated at 0,001% and 0,01% respectively.  The maximum risk of cardiovascular death is 34,17% in patients with diabetes and 8,24% in controls.  It is concluded that type 2 diabetes and related metabolic disorders significantly increase the risk of cardiovascular death.
