This study used the diabetes prevention and follow-up research queue in Daqing and the public database of UKbiobank to evaluate the risk factors of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events in diabetes patients, and built the first risk prediction model of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events in diabetes patients based on the Chinese population follow-up queue and externally verified, so as to identify high-risk groups and guide the early prevention of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases in diabetes patients. To evaluate the effect of incretin drugs on reducing the risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events, and the impact on the remission rate of diabetes in people with initial diabetes, a randomized, multicenter, controlled clinical study was conducted. The long-term follow-up of 2 years was conducted to evaluate whether the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular risks of those who stopped drug treatment after remission of diabetes compared with those who continued drug treatment were reduced, as well as the long-term impact of incretin on cardiovascular and cerebrovascular risks and the role of long-term mitigation of diabetes.

Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular event risk score
The cardiovascular and cerebrovascular event score (0-100%)is based on the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular event risk prediction model for diabetic patients established in Objective 1. In this prediction model, age, gender, smoking status, body mass index, waist circumference, glycated hemoglobin, blood sugar, blood pressure, and blood lipids correspond to certain scores. Higher scores indicate a higher risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events and a worse outcome.
Time frame: One-year follow-up
Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events
The Mace event includes cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction and non-fatal stroke.
Time frame: Baseline and every 12 weeks until 96 weeks
Cerebrovascular disease events
Cerebrovascular diseases include ischemic stroke, hemorrhagic stroke, transient ischemic attack, cerebral vascular malformation, etc.
Time frame: Baseline and every 12 weeks until 96 weeks
The remission rate of diabetes
Time frame: at 9 months, 1 year and 2 years of follow-up
Glycated hemoglobin
Reduced levels of glycated hemoglobin
Time frame: Baseline and every 12 weeks until 96 weeks
Fasting and postprandial blood glucose levels
Time frame: at 2 year and 8 year of follow-up
pancreatic islet function
The study evaluated pancreatic islet cell function by testing fasting insulin, insulin one hour after a steamed bread meal, and insulin two hours after a steamed bread meal.
Time frame: Baseline, 48 weeks and 96 weeks
Heart rate
The heart rate of the subjects were measured by electrocardiogram when they were at rest.
Time frame: Baseline, 48 weeks and 96 weeks
Carotid artery peak systolic velocity
Evaluate the systolic peak blood flow velocity through carotid artery ultrasound.
Time frame: Baseline, 48 weeks and 96 weeks
Routine urine examination
Evaluate the levels of red blood cells, white blood cells, urine glucose, urine ketones, and urine protein in urine through urine routine testing.
Time frame: Baseline, 48 weeks and 96 weeks
Urine microalbumin
Urine microalbuminuria for early assessment of renal damage.
Time frame: Baseline, 48 weeks and 96 weeks
Heart rhythm
The heart rhythm of the subjects were measured by electrocardiogram when they were at rest.
Time frame: Baseline, 48 weeks and 96 weeks
Carotid artery peak diastolic velocity
Evaluate the diastolic peak blood flow velocity through carotid artery ultrasound.
Time frame: Baseline, 48 weeks and 96 weeks
Carotid resistance index
Evaluate resistance index through carotid artery ultrasound. Carotid resistance index = (peak systolic velocity - end diastolic velocity) / peak systolic velocity
Time frame: Baseline, 48 weeks and 96 weeks
common carotid artery diameter
Evaluate the common carotid artery diameter through carotid artery ultrasound.

Evaluate the wall thickness through carotid artery ultrasound.
Time frame: Baseline, 48 weeks and 96 weeks
Carotid Intima-media Thickness
Evaluate the intimal thickness through carotid artery ultrasound.
Time frame: Baseline, 48 weeks and 96 weeks
