[QUOTE="ziggy_w, post: 2277855, member: 323454"] Hi Rabdos, What you are looking for is probably the ACCORD trial. This was a trial done on T2s to see if lowering average blood sugars (HbA1c less than 6% rather than 7 to 7.9%) by intensifying the adminstration of blood glucose lowering drugs leads to a lower incidence of cardiovascular disease. What they did find, however, was that in the intensive treatment group mortality increased compared to the control group.
