AB  - BACKGROUND: Uncontrolled type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is widely recognized as 
      a significant risk factor for the emergence of cardiovascular events. Early risk 
      assessment, especially for coronary artery disease, is crucial to starting 
      therapeutic strategies to lower cardiovascular risk. OBJECTIVE: To assess 
      cardiovascular risk in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. METHODS: 64 
      patients were divided into groups according to age, gender, disease duration, 
      glucoregulation, and applied treatment. The SCORE table was used to quantify 
      cardiovascular risk. RESULTS: Our research showed that cardiovascular risk in 
      patients with diabetes mellitus increases with age (rho = 0.458; p = 0.0001; p 
      <0.05) and is higher in men (rho = -0.417; p <0,0001). It has been found that 
      patients with a longer duration of diabetes mellitus have a higher cardiovascular 
      risk (rho = 0.266; p = 0.032). Patients with better glucoregulation had a 
      slightly lower cardiovascular risk, but correlation was statistically 
      insignificant. No statistically significant correlation was observed between 
      applied therapy and cardiovascular risk. CONCLUSION: Good control and treatment 
      of T2DM is of crucial importance for reducing cardiovascular risk.
