Type 2 Diabetes 2021

J Fam Pract. 2020 December;69(10)

This supplement was sponsored by Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals, Inc. It was edited and peer reviewed by The Journal of Family Practice.

 

The management of type 2 diabetes (T2D) has changed substantially over the last several decades. Standard practices have moved away from the glucocentric approach of T2D management into an era in which the interplay among T2D, obesity, atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, heart failure, and chronic kidney disease is increas­ingly recognized.

This supplement to The Journal of Family Practice brings together key updates in the field of T2D to help care for patients who have not only T2D, but also other intercon­nected diseases.
