ACCORD

I hadn't heard of ACCORD until I ran across a reference to it on another blog.

ACCORD is some kind of NIH study of diabetes

The overall goal of the Action to Control Cardiovascular Risk in Diabetes (ACCORD) trial is to address this challenge by testing three complementary medical treatment strategies for type 2 diabetes to enhance the options for reducing the still very high rate of major CVD morbidity and mortality in this disease.

So much of this kind of stuff is controled by pharacutical interests that I'm not ever sure what to think about it. I'll have to do some reading.
