What went wrong with the glucose-lowering arm of the ACCORD (Action to Control Cardiovascular Risk in Diabetes) Trials? Intensive therapy was expected to reduce cardiovascular events in Type 2 diabetics at high risk of cardiovascular disease. Instead, it appears to have led to an increase in mortality. Dr. John Buse, president of the American Diabetes Association and vice chair of the ACCORD Trials Steering Committee, details the confounding results of ACCORD and offers a few ideas to explain the unexpected outcomes. Dr. Matthew Sorrentino hosts.
