A nationwide cohort study for comparative vascular safety of long-acting insulin analogue versus intermediate-acting human insulin in type 2 diabetes
Abstract Little is known about the comparative vascular safety of basal insulins (intermediate-acting human insulin [IAHI] or long-acting insulin analogue [LAIA]) in type 2 diabetes (T2D). This study sought to examine the vascular and hypoglycemic effects associated with IAHI versus LAIA in real-wor...
