“…For example, 67.8% of patients in Southern Italy were treated with metformin in 2012, while 66% of patients were treated with metformin as monotherapy in France in 2013, and 83.6% received metformin in a UK primary care setting in 2013. In a Greek nationwide real‐world data analysis, metformin was the most frequently prescribed medication (77.4%) for T2DM, followed by DPP‐4 inhibitors (44.8%) and sulfonylureas (34.5%), while insulin was used by 19.4% of patients . The national diabetes report of the United States showed that approximately 57% of all patients in 2014 were treated with OADs alone, while approximately 15% of patients were given a combination of insulin and OADs, and insulin monotherapy was established in 14% of patients.…”

“…Mindazonáltal szulfonilureát még minden bizonnyal sokáig fogunk használni, de érdemes az egyes készítmé-nyek eltérő tulajdonságai alapján differenciált szulfonilurea-terápiát folytatni [18]. A metformin előretörése és a szulfonilureák viszonylagos háttérbe szorulása számos országban (Amerikai Egyesült Államok, Egyesült Király-ság, Dánia, Németország, Svédország, Görögország) megfigyelhető volt [19][20][21][22][23][24][25].…”

“…To differentiate type 1 from other types of diabetes, we used case definition criteria based on the review of existing definitions and algorithms [28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35] and available clinical guidelines for type 1 diabetes treatment. None of the existing algorithms were suitable to use in the Irish context for a variety of reasons.…”

“…We also excluded those patients receiving prescriptions for long-acting (basal) insulin only, without any prescription for prandial insulin, as these people are more likely to have type 2 diabetes than type 1 diabetes. 38 39 After initial analysis of different definitions based on the type 1 diabetes specific treatment schemes (online supplementary table 1), algorithms (online supplementary table 2) and comparisons with other existing evidence, [28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35] the following definition was used (see figure 1).…”
