NHANES Advances in Therapy, but Falling Short of Goals 1980s 1990s 2000s HbA 1c (%) SU / Insulin Metformin (1995) TZDs (1998) Incretins (2004) Pre-DCCT9.0% 7.7NHANES NHANES NHANES Future 6.0% ? 1997: ADA lowered T2DM diagnosis from FPG ≥7.8 mmol/L to ≥7.0 mmol/L 2003: ADA eliminated HbA 1c “action point” of <8% from guidelines SU=sulfonylurea; TZDs=thiazolidinediones; T2DM=type 2 diabetes. Koro CE, et al. Diabetes Care. 2004;27:17-20; Hoerger TJ, et al. Diabetes Care. 2008;31: : ADA added HbA 1c goal of <6% for “individual patients” to guidelines General ADA Target: <7% 1998: UKPDS results published 2008: ACCORD, ADVANCE, VADT, and UKPDS 80 published 2009: ADA added “less stringent” HbA 1c goal for patients with significant comorbidities or risk of hypoglycemia, or short life expectancy
