“…Additional support for our analyses is provided by the finding that the costs of managing complications over 10 years were actually found to be reduced in patients with type 2 diabetes receiving intensive treatment rather than conventional therapy (55). Other shorterterm studies have also concluded that the costs of medical care are increased if HbA 1c levels exceed 7% (5) or 8% (56) and that a reduction from a baseline level of HbA 1c of 10% by at least 1% or more that was sustained over 2 years is associated with lower costs (6,18).…”

“…1) simulates patients with type 2 diabetes from diagnosis to death (18), including the occurrence of macrovascular complications (stroke, transient ischemic attack, myocardial infarction, and angina) and various levels of the progressive complications (nephropathy, retinopathy, and neuropathy), which start at the mildest level but can develop into major complications. For example, nephropathy has three levels: microalbuminuria, gross proteinuria, and end-stage renal disease (ESRD).…”

“…The estimated costs and outcomes associated with diabetes were based on a previous diabetes model developed by the authors. 177,178 The diabetes submodel consisted of several Markov processes that were used to model disease progression on several complication pathways including retinopathy, nephropathy, neuropathy and CVD (stroke, transient ischaemic attacks, MI and angina). Individuals progressed through the model based on their starting characteristics (age, sex, HbA 1c ) and were tracked until death.…”

“…However, it is unclear from the paper how these characteristics were assigned to simulated patients and modelled to progress over time. From review of a previous version of the diabetes model used in this analysis, 177,178 it appears that patient characteristics were assigned by sampling from probability distributions. However, there is no mention in the current analysis of the distributions used for the IGT cohort.…”
