Today at ADA 2021, ABCD is pleased to announce the launch of the ABCD nationwide oral semaglutide audit. As you will know, the clinical trials with semaglutide suggest that it may be more effective than the other GLP-1 receptor agonists. Results from the ABCD semaglutide audit, presented this weekend at ADA 2021, have demonstrated significant reductions in HbA1c and weight following commencement of semaglutide in a real-world cohort that was heavier with higher baseline HbA1c levels than those in clinical trials.
King's College London are seeking applications for the prestigious RD Lawrence Chair. For further information please see the detailed advertisement.
The ABCD Empagliflozin audit has provided valuable insights into empagliflozin use in UK based real-world practice.

We are pleased to be presenting our first analysis from the ABCD Semaglutide audit at the American Diabetes Association Scientific Session virtual session this weekend.
