A randomised trial of the effect and cost-effectiveness of early intensive multifactorial therapy on 5-year cardiovascular outcomes in individuals with screen-detected type 2 diabetes: the Anglo–Danish–Dutch Study of Intensive Treatment in People with Screen-Detected Diabetes in Primary Care (ADDITION-Europe) study

Background: Intensive treatment (IT) of cardiovascular risk factors can halve mortality among people with established type 2 diabetes but the effects of treatment earlier in the disease trajectory are uncertain. Objective: To quantify the cost-effectiveness of intensive multifactorial treatment of screen-detected diabetes. Design: Pragmatic, multicentre, cluster-randomised, parallel-group trial. Setting: Three hundred and forty-three general practices in Denmark, the Netherlands, and Cambridge and Leicester, UK. Participants: Individuals aged 40–69 years with screen-detected diabetes.
