The currently available diagnostic tools, up-to-date means for monitoring glycemia, introduction of innovative insulinpreparations and hypoglycemic agents, development of high-technology therapeutic modalities may greatly improve disease prognosis, reduce the frequencyof chronic complications, related disablement and mortality rates. The targeted control of major risk factors, viz. hyperglycemia, hypertension,and dyslipidemia, during the patients lifetime starting from the onset of diabetes remains the most promising strategy for the prevention of diabeticcomplications.
