Three-year efficacy of complex insulin regimens in type 2 diabetes.

20 Oct 2009 BACKGROUND: Evidence supporting the addition of specific insulin regimens to oral therapy in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus is limited. METHODS: In this 3-year open-label, multicenter trial, we evaluated 708 patients who had suboptimal ... Read more...

Pharmacotherapy of hyperglycemia.

29 Sep 2009 Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic, progressive disorder that affects more than 230 million people worldwide and is expected to affect 366 million by 2030. Both the prevalence of T2DM and the cost of its long term complications has driven ... Read more...

Position statement of the Australian Diabetes Society: individualisation of glycated haemoglobin targets for adults with diabetes mellitus.

19 Sep 2009 Tight glycaemic control reduces the risk of development and progression of organ complications in people with type 1 or type 2 diabetes. In this position statement, the Australian Diabetes Society recommends a general target glycated haemoglobin ... Read more...

Technical information about 'Hypoglycemia'

Definition: A syndrome of abnormally low BLOOD GLUCOSE level. Clinical hypoglycemia has diverse etiologies. Severe hypoglycemia eventually lead to glucose deprivation of the CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM resulting in HUNGER; SWEATING; PARESTHESIA; impaired mental function; SEIZURES; COMA; and even DEATH.
