PG - EVIDe2200039 LID - 10.1056/EVIDe2200039 [doi] AB - Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is defined by a common end point: hyperglycemia diagnosed by fasting plasma glucose, plasma glucose during an oral glucose tolerance test, or hemoglobin A1c without autoimmune beta-cell destruction.(1) Historically, little attention has been paid to the etiologies driving hyperglycemia; as a result, there has been an absence of an elegant pathophysiologically directed diagnostic and therapeutic approach. T2DM has simply been thought to be a result of insulin deficiency and/or peripheral insulin resistance. However, the phenotype of T2DM is heterogeneous, as is the pathophysiology.(2,3).
