Abstract: Aims: The aim is to study cardiovascular di-sease in two cohorts (diabetic versus no diabetic) followed for 10 and 15 years since 2003 analyzed by sex.Method: Analytical, observational, longitudi-nal prospective study of cohorts over a 10 and 15-year period. 200 patients are studied, 100 exposed to the risk factor diabetes and 100 non-exposed. They are patients of the Torrero-La Paz Health Cen-tre (Zaragoza) in 2003.Results: Diabetes mellitus (DM) increases the risk of cardiovascular disease (RR 9 in 2003, 3.37 in 2013 and 2.66 in 2018) with statistic significance; women do no't have more risk than men. Cardio-vascular disease is developed 7,5 years earlier in patients exposed to the risk factor diabetes than in non-exposed.Conclusions: the prevalence cardiovascular disease increases during the followed years. Women diagnosed of DM do not have more risk than men diagnosed of DM of cardiovascular disease. Cardio-vascular disease is developed at 59.62 years in me-dia, and it is developed earlier in patients exposed to the risk factor diabetes than in non- exposed. Diabetes mellitus is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease (RR>1 in 2003,2013 and 2018 in exposed pa-tients compared with non-exposed ones).
