Studies have shown that control targets that reduce the HbA1C to less than 7 are associated with fewer long-term complications of diabetes. Patients who should have such a target include:
 
  1. Those with long-standing diabetes
  2. Older adults
  3. Those with no significant cardiovascular disease
  4. Young children who are early in their disease

Question 2

Prevention of conversion from prediabetes to diabetes in young children must take highest priority and should focus on:
 
  1. Aggressive dietary manipulation to prevent obesity
  2. Fostering LDL levels less than 100 mg/dl and total cholesterol less than 170 mg/dl to prevent cardiovascular disease
  3. Maintaining a blood pressure that is less than 80 based on weight and height to prevent hypertension
  4. All of the above
