In treating diabetes, what is important? Glucose levels or outcome measures?

Table 1 A 78-year white male with established diabetes showed the following results in his first office visit

Glucose (mg/dL)		Scr (mg/dL)		eGFR (mL/min)
F	2hPP	F	2hPP	F	2hPP
114 (6.3 mmol/L)	235 (13 mmol/L)	1.18	1.28	> 60	58
Dglucose (2hPPG-FBG) 121 mg/dL

2hPP: 2-h postprandial; 2hPPG-FBG: 2-h postprandial blood glucose - fasting blood glucose; eGFR: Estimated glomerular filtration rate; Scr: Serum creatinine; F: Fasting.
