Keep in Mind. 6/44 A1C threshold of 6.5% is strongly correlated with retinopathy ~33% of newly diagnosed patients already have complications Complications (particularly macrovascular) are present even in patients with pre-diabetes Diabetes Care 2009;32:1327 34.
Also Keep in Mind. 7/44 Intensive group vs less intensive: 6.3-7.4% vs 7.3-8.4% The therapy options for type 2 diabetes have drastically changed over the past 10 years Sulfonylureas and insulin have a high risk of hypoglycemia
