Type 2 diabetes is typically not diagnosed until Beta cell function has been significantly impaired. After diagnosis, beta cell function deteriorates linearly with time. Extrapolating back a graph of time vs. function from the UKPDS suggests that beta cell dysfunction begins many years before it results in a clinical presentation of type two diabetes.

Women with at least one risk factor for GDM GTT 24-34 weeks â FPG <7.8 and 2-hr 7-8 - 11 1000 randomly assigned to âIntensiveâ versus âRoutineâ care â Routine careâ â patients and physicians were not aware of the diagnosis of GDM
23,316 pregnant women at 15 centres in 9 countries with 75-g oral glucose-tolerance testing at 24 to 32 weeks of gestation. Blinded if fasting glucose <5.8 and 2-hour glucose <11.1 mmol/l
Reviewed the evidence from HAPO, ACHOIS and all other available smaller randomized trials.
