The book "Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: An Evidence-Based Approach to Practical Management" offers a comprehensive analysis of the challenges associated with the treatment of type 2 diabetes. Given the growing global epidemic of diabetes, which is expected to increase over the next 20 years, this work is of critical importance. It brings together the expertise of an interdisciplinary team of scientists and medical professionals, providing a wealth of information on clinical issues. The authors integrate the best available evidence for the evaluation and treatment of type 2 diabetes, also considering comorbid conditions such as hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and vascular diseases. Each chapter highlights relevant conditions and addresses barriers to effective treatment, such as stress, depression, and patient motivation.
