Diagnosing and managing type 2 diabetes presents an enormous
challenge to the primary care provider confronted with multiple
emerging scientific insights, therapeutic strategies and risk
reduction principles. In Type 2 Diabetes, Pre-Diabetes, and the
Metabolic Syndrome: The Primary Care Guide to Diagnosis and
Management, Second Edition, Ronald A. Codario, M.D., FACP -- a
well-known and highly respected authority on diabetes -- details
the state-of-the-art in diagnosing, managing and attenuating risks
in patients with this disease. Utilizing his extensive experience
in private practice, medical education and clinical research for
over 35 years, Dr. Codario explains in simple clinical terms, the
current understanding of the pathophysiology of diabetes, the
latest clinical trials, developing controversies, updates on new
medications and an expanded section on Special Populations. With
his unique, multiple board certifications in clinical hypertension,
vascular medicine, internal medicine, vascular ultrasound and
clinical lipidology, Dr. Codario provides practical guidelines for
treatment with insulin and oral agents, lipid and hypertension
control and comprehensive risk reduction strategies. Extensively
reviewed are the metabolic syndrome, the role of exercise and
nutrition, and key issues associated with herb and nutriceutical
use. Illustrative case studies in diabetes management, an
outstanding bibliography of suggested readings, and extensive
chapter subheadings for quick reference make this book a practical,
easy-to-read guide for dealing with this killer disease. Type 2
Diabetes, Pre-Diabetes, and the Metabolic Syndrome: The Primary
Care Guide to Diagnosis and Management, Second Edition is the
direct result of many years of listening, teaching, lecturing and
empathizing with fellow primary care providers and their patients
in the ongoing fight against diabetes. Like the internationally
acclaimed first edition, this is a must read and invaluable guide
for all primary care providers, students, caregivers and patients
battling the ravages of this ever increasing epidemic.
