| pubmed-article:8722053 | pubmed:abstractText | In insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, institution of good glycemic control has been shown to retard development of retinopathy even though temporary progression has occurred. Few data have been available from patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). To determine the impact of improved glycemic control on retinopathy in patients with NIDDM, we examined, in a case-control study, the progression of retinopathy in 94 patients who changed treatment from oral antihyperglycemic agents to insulin. | lld:pubmed |
