"Targets for Glucose Control: A Review of Recent Evidence"

Dr. Gillian Booth (biography)
English - 2003-10-31 - 29 minutes
(44 slides)

Summary :
The UKPDS and DCCT studies showed the need for good glycemic control in terms of HbA1c, to reduce the risk of microvascular complications (1, 2). However some studies have also looked at the relationship between fasting blood glucose and post prandial glycemia, and the risk of complications. For example, the Kumamoto study looked at FBG (3) and 2-hour postprandial glycemia (4) and risk of retinopathy and nephropathy, and a metaregression analysis done by Coutinho et al looked at the effects FBG and 2-hour PPG on CHD risk (5). More recently Monnier et al described the contribution of PPG to overall hyperglycemia (6).

Intensive therapy to achieve glucose control comes with the risk of hypoglycemia and this will be discussed here, along with the new 2003 CDA blood glucose and HbA1c targets. Finally, the ACCORD (Action to Control Cardiovascular Risk in Diabetes) study is now underway, and is designed to test complementary strategies to reduce CVD outcomes in high-risk type 2 diabetic patients.
