Insulin therapy in type 2 diabetes: insulin analogue mix 50, a potential role in
reducing postprandial hyperglycaemia and cardiovascular disease.
IMPORTANCE OF THE FIELD: Postprandial hyperglycaemia is becoming topical, with
studies suggesting a link to cardiovascular disease. Recently, a number of new
therapies for the treatment of type 2 diabetes have become available. AREAS
COVERED IN THIS REVIEW: This review looks at the evidence for the potential role
of insulin analogue mix 50 to reduce postprandial hyperglycaemia and
cardiovascular disease. SEARCH STRATEGY: Medline and Embase databases were
searched using the MeSH terms to identify relevant studies from 1980 to 2009.
Both original articles and reviews were extracted. Published reference lists were
also examined. MeSH terms used for literature searching: human insulins, insulin
analogues, insulin analogue mix 50, glycaemia, postprandial glucose, fasting
glucose, type 2 diabetes, type 1 diabetes, cardiovascular disease. WHAT THE
READER WILL GAIN: The reader is presented with evidence discussing the importance
of postprandial hyperglycaemia and studies comparing different insulin regimes
and in particular insulin analogue mix 50 and its potential to reduce
postprandial glucose surges and reduce cardiovascular disease. TAKE-HOME MESSAGE:
Insulin analogue mix 50 is a viable therapeutic option in a sub-group of patients
with type 2 diabetes.
