Perspectives of Patients with Insulin-Treated Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes on Hypoglycemia: Results of the HAT Observational Study in Central and Eastern European Countries
The results of two large multicentric, observational and cross-sectional studies (the DIAINFORM study and BALI study) reflecting routine clinical practice for insulin treatment in type 2 diabetes mellitus in the Czech Republic were published recently. In this commentary, we analyze these results and compare them with the findings of similar studies conducted in other countries within the last decade. The analysis focuses on achievement of glycated hemoglobin goals, insulin dosage and frequency of hypoglycemia.
