The featured article of the first issue of 2011 focuses on the importance of taking charge and improving patient outcomes in the management of type 2 diabetes. The American Diabetes Association (ADA) estimates that more than 20 million people in the US, or 7 percent of the population, have diabetes, and that one in three Americans born in 2000 will develop diabetes sometime during their lifetime. Despite numerous treatment approaches and pharmacologic agents, the treatment of hyperglycemia in patients with type 2 diabetes remains a major clinical challenge. This article details the importance of improving these outcomes and closing gaps in the management of type 2 diabetes.
