These results suggest that the lytic C5b-9 complement complex leads to reperfusion injury in the early phase (30 min) of ischaemia, resulting in a larger infarct. After 2 h of ischaemia, complement activation enhances the no-reflow phenomenon but does not affect infarct size. Finally, the C6 status seems to influence the susceptibility to ventricular arrhythmias after coronary artery occlusion, independent of reperfusion.

Quality interactions between physicians or other HCPs and their patients before and during the initiation of basal insulin may help to manage patient expectations and to improve persistence to insulin therapy.
