Infos

Now in its second edition, The Evidence Base for Diabetes
Care has been fully revised and updated to incorporate new
evidence from clinical trials. The aim of the book remains the same
- to provide treatment recommendations based on the latest
research and ensure patients with diabetes receive the best
possible care.

Designed to be user-friendly, the evidence is displayed in clear
tables with accompanying critiques including grading of evidence
where appropriate. As well as summarizing the current evidence
available for diabetes prevention and care, the contributors
highlight areas where evidence is lacking and where studies are
underway.

This book is an invaluable source of evidence-based information
distilled into guidance for clinical practice.
