And that for every 1% decrease in HbA1C, there was a 35% reduction in risk of these complication! ? That the UKPDS also showed a 25% reduction in diabetes-related deaths, a 7% reduction in all-cause mortality, and an 18% reduction in myocardial infarctions (MI) for every 1% reduction in HbA1C? ? That the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial (DCCT) showed that patients with Type 1 Diabetes had a 50-75% reduction in microvascular complications when their HbA1C was less than 7.2%?
