Abstract

Type 2 diabetes has been definitively characterized as one of the most physiologically complex and heterogeneous metabolic known diseases. The extraordinary depth of knowledge that has been achieved regarding the pathophysiology has helped to stimulate an explosive array of therapeutic regimens and monitoring tools for improving outcomes in this disease. Indeed, the clinical narrative about ‘control’ of diabetes has shifted markedly in the last two years, away from a focus on glucose-mediated vascular complications to defining diabetes control as cardiovascular risk reduction and end organ protection. The new tools for management coupled with new pathophysiologic insights have brought a tide of good news for the millions of people living with type 2 diabetes.
