有些专家也对逐渐增强药物疗法强度的益处提出质疑,这一获得广泛认可的方法在最新的指引中也再次得到肯定。该疗法的目的是要维持患者的血糖水平,同时也要跟上糖尿病会不断加重的这种特性。其中,位于达拉斯的德克萨斯大学西南医学中心(UT Southwestern Medical Center)的研究人员在最近一次小规模研究中提出,早早采用高强度疗法治疗糖尿病会更好。
More than 24 million Americans have Type 2 diabetes, the version of the disease usually associated with being overweight and living a sedentary lifestyle. By some estimates the number could double by 2025.

In diabetes, the body isn't able to effectively use insulin or to make enough of it to metabolize glucose in the food we eat, resulting in higher than normal levels of blood sugar. Heart attacks and strokes, kidney failure, nerve damage, blindness and vascular problems leading to amputation are among the long-term complications when the disease isn't well controlled. That makes diabetes a precursor to many of medicine's most debilitating conditions. Annual costs for treatment and loss of productivity associated with the disease are about $174 billion, according to the American Diabetes Association, an education and research association that devised the new treatment guidelines in collaboration with its counterpart the European Association for the Study of Diabetes.
