Comparative Effectiveness for Glycemic Control in Older Adults with Diabetes
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To review and summarize the current data for comparative effectiveness of glycemic control in older adults. RECENT FINDINGS In the last several years, professional societies have released guidelines for glycemic control in older adults, generally recommending individualized HbA1c goals. However, recent observational studies demonstrate that many older adults remain aggressiv...
متن کاملSerum biomarkers for assessing glycemic control in diabetes mellitus
Clinical evidence has revealed the association between complications Diabetes Mellitus (DM) and serum glycemic control. Thus, evaluation of the glycemic control status is crucial in the management of DM. Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) is the most common method for monitoring serum glycemic control. However, several confounding factors including red blood cell lifespan and hemoglobinopathies can affect ...
متن کاملTarget for Glycemic Control
I t is commonly admitted that the glycemic control of patients with type 2 diabetes proceeds from a complex “alchemy” in which the respective contributions of both fasting and postprandial glucose are still a subject of debate (1). A1C, which remains the gold standard for assessing glucose homeostasis, is an integration of both fasting and postprandial glucose variations over a 3-month period (...
متن کاملSecond-line agents for glycemic control for type 2 diabetes: are newer agents better?
OBJECTIVE While metformin is generally accepted as the first-line agent in treatment of type 2 diabetes, there are insufficient evidence and extensive debate about the best second-line agent. We aimed to assess the benefits and harms of four commonly used antihyperglycemia treatment regimens considering clinical effectiveness, quality of life, and cost. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We develope...
متن کاملVirtual testing of decision support for tight glycemic control in the ICU
The Glucosafe decision support system for glycemic control in intensive care has previously been tested clinically. Evaluating modifications to advice generation requires clinical trials. This study evaluates the use of virtual patients, derived from real patients, and which modifications to Glucosafe advice generation are necessary to lower blood glucose under 6.1 mmol/L. Based on data from 5 ...
