Key Challenges of Type 2 Diabetes
Diabetes is a progressive disease characterized by:
Declining β-cell function
Insulin resistance
Deterioration of glycemic control
Obesity, mainly abdominal fat accumulation
Increased prevalence of cardiovascular disease
Hypoglycemia risk
Complex treatment regimens
