    Title : Choice of Insulin in Type 2 Diabetes: A Southeast Asian Perspective

    Selected sentence : It seems natural, therefore, for Southeast Asian nations to continue their
    proactive and patient-centered approach toward the management of diabetes. This is
    accomplished by ensuring publication and adoption of updated national clinical pathways and
    guidelines, which reflect and respond to the lifestyle, dietary patterns, and biomedical as well as
    psychosocial needs of their citizens.

    Paraphrased Version : Therefore, as Southeast Asian countries continue a more active and
    focused approach to diabetic patients. This goal can be achieved by ensuring the publication and
    clinical adoption of an updated national clinical pathway along with guidelines to reflect the
    lifestyle, dietary patterns, and biomedical and psychosocial needs of the Southeast Asian
    community.

    Title : Perceptions of Painful Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy in South-East Asia: Results from
    Patient and Physician Surveys

    Selected sentence : Most patients were monitored upon diagnosis of pDPN (range 55–97%), but
    patients reported a shorter duration of monitoring compared with physicians. Both physicians
    and patients agreed that it was patients who initiated conversations on pDPN. Physicians most
    commonly referred to guidelines from the American Diabetes Association or local guidelines for
    the management of pDPN. This study highlights important differences between physician and
    patient perceptions of pDPN, which may impact on its diagnosis and treatment.

    Paraphrased Version : Most of the patients were monitored after diagnosis of pDPN (range 55-
    97%), but patients needed shorter checking times compared to doctors. Doctors most often use
    guidelines from the American Diabetes Association. This study looks at the differences between
    doctors 'and patients' perceptions about pDPN, which can have an impact on the diagnosis and
    treatment of patients.

    Title : Treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus worldwide: Baseline patient characteristics in the
    global DISCOVER study

    Selected sentence : Sustained glycaemic control, along with the management of comorbidities
    such as hypertension and hyperlipidaemia, remains a key component of the effective treatment of
    patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Clinical guidelines recommend the use of metformin, in
    conjunction with lifestyle changes, as the first-line glucose-lowering therapy. However, when
    metformin monotherapy fails to control glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) levels, there is no
    consensus on optimal subsequent treatments, and guidelines recommend an individualized and
    patient-centred approach to drug selection based on patient characteristics including age,
    duration of diabetes, presence of comorbidities and risk of adverse events including
    hypoglycaemia and weight gain

    Paraphrased Version : Continuous glycemic control, together with comorbid management such
    as hypertension and hyperlipidemia, is an effective treatment for patients with type 2 diabetes
    mellitus. The use of metformin, and lifestyle changes, is the first step in glucose-lowering
    therapy. However, when metformin monotherapy fails to stabilize hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels, it
    is recommended to take an individual and patient-centered approach to drug selection for
    patients including age, diabetes time, presence of comorbidities and risk of side effects including
    hypoglycemia and weight gain.
