AB  - Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in persons less than 20 years of age is 
      increasing dramatically due to increasing obesity and inactivity, particularly in 
      young African Americans. Risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD) in this 
      population are similar to those observed in adults with T2DM, including 
      hypertension, dyslipidemia, hyperglycemia and proteinuria. Accordingly, it seems 
      prudent to pursue therapeutic strategies proven to reduce CVD in adult patients 
      with DM soon after the diagnosis of T2DM in young persons.
