TL;DR: A strategy of intensive glucose control, involving gliclazide (modified release) and other drugs as required, that lowered the glycated hemoglobin value to 6.5% yielded a 10% relative reduction in the combined outcome of major macrovascular and microvascular events, primarily as a consequence of a 21%relative reduction in nephropathy.

TL;DR: It is concluded that microalbuminuria in patients with Type II diabetes is predictive of clinical proteinuria and increased mortality.

TL;DR: It is concluded that microalbuminuria predicts the development of diabetic nephropathy and that elevated glomerular filtration rates and increased blood pressure may also contribute to this progression.

TL;DR: Cadesartan 16 mg once daily is as effective as lisinopril 20 mgonce daily in reducing blood pressure and microalbuminuria in hypertensive patients with type 2 diabetes and combination treatment is well tolerated and more effective in reducingBlood pressure.
