Intensive blood-glucose control with sulphonylureas or insulin compared with conventional treatment and risk of complications in patients with type 2 diabetes (UKPDS 33)

R C Turner, +398 more
- 12 Sep 1998 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of intensive blood-glucose control with either sulphonylurea or insulin and conventional treatment on the risk of microvascular and macrovascular complications in patients with type 2 diabetes in a randomised controlled trial were compared.
Journal Article

Tight blood pressure control and risk of macrovascular and microvascular complications in type 2 diabetes: UKPDS 38

M R Stearne, +262 more
- 12 Sep 1998 - 
TL;DR: Tight blood pressure control in patients with hypertension and type 2 diabetes achieves a clinically important reduction in the risk of deaths related to diabetes, complications related to Diabetes, progression of diabetic retinopathy, and deterioration in visual acuity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tight blood pressure control and risk of macrovascular and microvascular complications in type 2 diabetes: UKPDS 38. UK Prospective Diabetes Study Group.

Stearne, +263 more
- 01 Jan 1998 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared tight control of blood pressure with less tight control aiming at a blood pressure of <150/85 mm Hg with the use of an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor captopril or a beta blocker atenolol as main treatment.
Journal Article

Efficacy of atenolol and captopril in reducing risk of macrovascular and microvascular complications in type 2 diabetes: UKPDS 39

M R Stearne, +262 more
- 12 Sep 1998 - 
TL;DR: This study provided no evidence that either drug has any specific beneficial or deleterious effect, suggesting that blood pressure reduction in itself may be more important than the treatment used.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sulfonylurea inadequacy: efficacy of addition of insulin over 6 years in patients with type 2 diabetes in the U.K. Prospective Diabetes Study (UKPDS 57).

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the efficacy of the addition of insulin when maximal sulfonylurea therapy is inadequate in individuals with type 2 diabetes and found that the early addition of a small amount of insulin can significantly improve glycemic control without promoting increased hypoglycemia or weight gain.
