The objective of this study is to establish the usefulness of FMD as measured by online semi-automatec software in the risk stratification for cardiovascular diseases in Japanese subjects. In addition, there are secondary objectives, as follows: 1) to clarify whether FMD might serve as a reliable predictor of the rate of progression of carotid atherosclerosis, arterial stiffness and microalbuminuria in subjects with hypertension or diabetes mellitus, independent of the biochemical marker, including pulse-wave velocity (PWV), ankle-barchial index (ABI), serum C-reactive protein, and proteomic biomarkers; 2) to asses the relationship between biomarkers of atherosclerosis and FMD; 3) to assess the predictive value of FMD for the progression of microalbuminuria; 4) to assess the predictive value of FMD for impairment of PWV, or the predictive value of PWV for impairment of FMD.
Efficacy
1) Ultrasound examination of the carotid artery: max intima-media thickness (IMT), mean IMT. 2) Urinary microalbumin and creatinine excretion measurements.

Male and Female
Enrolled patients are those with hypertension or diabetes mellitus, whose conditions are being well-controled with treatment (ie, blood pressure of <150/95 mmHg and HbA1c level of <7.5%), and who have been receiving follow-up at 1 of the participating centers for at least 6 months.
The exclusion criteria are: the presence of coronary artery disease, including a history of percutaneous coronary intervention or coronary bypass surgery; severe valvular heart disease; arrhythmia requiring treatment (ie, atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, permanent pacemaker implantation or frequent ventricular premature beats); impaired left ventricular systolic function (left ventricular ejection fraction of <40%); malignancy; receiving treatment with steroids, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs or immunosuppressive drugs; a serum creatinine level of greater than 2.5 mg/dL; stroke or aortic disease (except peripheral artery disease) and serious liver disease.
