Abstract:
Recently, several large, long-term rendomized controlled trails (ACCORD, ADVANCE, VADT) and long-term epidemiologic follow-up studies (UKPDS, STENO-2) have compared the effects of intensive versus standard glycemic control on cardiovascular disease events. Based on reviewing aforementioned studies, the present article would suggest that intensive glycemia control is still considered as one of the principal therapies for the prevention of cardiovascular events in diabetes while stressing on safety and individualization for glucose-lowering strategy.
