A Decrease in Glucose Variability Does Not Reduce Cardiovascular Event Rates in Type 2 Diabetic Patients After Acute Myocardial Infarction
OBJECTIVE To assess the effect of intraday glucose variability (GV) on cardiovascular outcomes in a reanalysis of Hyperglycemia and Its Effect After Acute Myocardial Infarction on Cardiovascular Outcomes in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (HEART2D) study data. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Type 2 diabetic patients after acute myocardial infarction were randomized to an insulin treatment ...
متن کاملDoes exercise reduce all-cancer death rates?
A reanalysis is made of earlier data relating to initial physical fitness and the likelihood of death from all forms of cancer. It is argued that the original analysis may have been biased by an association between initial fitness and other health habits, particularly cigarette smoking. The association with fitness status remains after reanalysis of the data on the assumption that current smoki...
متن کاملGlycemic Control Impact on Body Weight Potential to Reduce Cardiovascular Risk
The prevalence and incidence of type 2 diabetes are progressively increasing because of a concomitant rise in the prevalence of obesity. Intentional weight loss in patients with type 2 diabetes has been associated with a 25% reduction in total mortality and a 28% reduction in cardiovascular disease and diabetes mortality (1). Weight gain is not only a risk factor for development of type 2 diabe...
متن کاملShould patients with type 2 diabetes focus on glycemic control to reduce their cardiovascular risk?
3 very large randomized trials have recently announced their results, massively expanding the evidence base for the efficacy and safety of intensive glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes. Taken together, these trials indicate that tight glycemic control is potentially harmful (one of the trials was stopped earlier than planned because of an increased risk of death in patients assign...
متن کاملNumber 1985 Does Rent Control Reduce Segregation ?
Advocates of rent control often argue that rent control aids the mixing of rich and poor, and perhaps of the races as well. Economic theory does not necessarily predict that rent control will reduce segregation. The best case for rent control as an aid to integration is that it creates pockets of low rent (and low quality) apartments in expensive cities. However, by creating an excess of demand...
