Insulin resistance (IR) was described in type 1 diabetes (T1D) and is related to higher risk of complications. The association of estimated Glucose Disposal Rate (eGDR), a proxy of IR, to all-cause mortality was assessed in 774 T1D (age 40.2±11.7; DD 19.4±12.2 years; HbA1c 7.8±1.2%) in a follow-up of 10.6±2.5 years. Mean eGDR was 7.52±2.28 mg/kg/min (median 8.29; IQR 5.54-9.31). In agreement with the “Swedish National Diabetes Register” eGDR was stratified in 4 categories: C1: ≥8.0 (n. 424, 54.8%); C2: 6.0-7.99 (n. 125, 16.1%); C3: 4.0-5.99 (n. 149, 19.3%) and C4: 2 (p Disclosure M.
