"Lessons from the UKPDS"Prof. Alastair Gray (biography)
English - 2005-04-15 - 33 minutes
|
 | (25 slides) |
Summary :
In this presentation Prof. Gray descibes results from UKPDS 61 and 68, which looked at fasting plasma glucose (FPG) levels at diagnosis of diabetes in relation to clinical outcomes, and the UKPDS Outcomes Model, respectively.
UKPDS 61 found that those with lower FPG levels at diagnosis of diabetes had fewer complications but similar rates of deterioration in glycemic control compared to those with high FPG levels. The UKPDS Outcomes Model is a comprehensive health outcomes model for type 2 diabetes that uses long-term outcome data from the study and predicts the risk of major diabetes complications.
