[QUOTE="cugila, post: 181360, member: 15325"] Thanks for that Phoenix. I think the difference in the OP's post and what was actually stated in the report is significant. This was what the Op posted as part of the conclusion......... What the abstract shows was actually stated was this........... The actual conclusion was this.......... Whilst I think it is a good idea to keep BG levels within targets it doesn't appear to me that the report is saying if we don't achieve the fasting levels quoted that we are [b]poorly controlled Diabetic's[/b]. Neither does it say that if the fasting levels are not in the range quoted that there is a significantly higher risk of death ??? What it does say is that those levels were [b]associated[/b] with death, in other words......[b]at the time of death[/b] mainly from the causes listed. That's my take on it. [/QUOTE]
