Abstract

Introduction: Improvements in glycemic outcomes have stalled since 20in some international surveys. We examined the latest trends in drug use and glycemic outcomes following recent introduction of newer classes of glucose lowering drugs (GLDs) in a territory-wide analysis. Methods: Using data from the Hong Kong Diabetes Surveillance Database, we estimated age-specific trends in the proportion of patients reaching different glycemic targets, and rates of severe hypoglycemia (SH) in 963,612 patients between 2002-2019. We assessed patterns of GLDs use by age, sex, presence of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) . Results: HbA1c improved most markedly between 2007-2014 but plateaued since 2014, with 53.1% patients achieving HbA1c Conclusions: Following rapid improvement in 2007-2014, glycemic control and SH rates had plateaued despite the increasing use of SGLT2is and GLP-1RA in Hong Kong.
