Diabetes Discourse

Guest: David Kendall, MD Host: Steven Edelman, MD The assessment of intensive glycemic control in preventing cardiovascular disease is unclear. Discrepancies in recent clinical trials such as ACCORD, ADVANCE, PROactive and UKPDS 80 may reflect difference in study design and patients, versus glycemic control. How can using the Archimedes model illuminate this quandary? Join host Dr. Steven Edelman and his guest, chief scientific and medical officer of the American Diabetes Association, Dr. David Kendall, as they discuss the effect of glycemic control on macrovascular outcomes in patients with diabetes.
