We also need to revisit recommendations which have been extrapolated from T2D eg statin recommendations - perhaps using observational data to check our assumptions

@nictitate @DiabetesCanada Awesome to have great researchers and clinicians at the same meeting. Hopefully enough interest for everyone AND start forging connections and breaking down silos Diabetes is complex. Needs networks and different perspectives if we are to have impact

@ShivaniM_KC Wait for the full text. The evidence for A1c, weight and insulin dose reductions is level 1A. The grade D recommendation is because of uncertainty about who will benefit and recognizing uncertainty re balance of risk and harm

@Abdul_stock A real risk - hence need for risk mitigation. But PWD live with risk everyday (eg hypo). For many years DKA risk was the objection to pumps. Continuous ketone monitoring will be here before you know it and could help mitigate risk

We don’t have good data. We don’t necessarily restrict to high BMI. We hope having a recommendation will facilitate access to drugs for individuals who would like to use them. The evidence is strong but there is uncertainty about who will benefit and how risks are perceived

2 words that I think will be the themes we need to tackle in #diabetes in the next 5-10 years 1. Gatekeeping 2. Heterogeneity Relevant for both clinical and preclinical domains
