After implementing current guideline-directed medical management, there is still urgency to address residual cardiovascular risk. Among the drivers of residual cardiovascular risk, inflammation has generated considerable interest, first based on preclinical and biomarker studies in humans. More recently, translation has inspired clinical trials in this domain. This presentation will consider inflammation as a process that links traditional and nontraditional risk factors to atherothrombotic events.

Close to the Heart: The Importance of Recognizing Cardiovascular Risk in Type 2 Diabetes
Javier Morales, MD, FACP, FACE
The objective of this program is to communicate the importance of addressing cardiovascular risk in patients with type 2 diabetes. The program will cover data on prevalence, morbidity, mortality, and intensive versus conventional glucose lowering on macrovascular complications. In addition, the program will review guidance from leading medical associations that is based upon completed cardiovascular outcome trials of antihyperglycemic medications in patients with type 2 diabetes.
