aCase 1: estimated HBPs for a Black woman, aged 50 years, BMI = 36, FPG = 150 mg/dL, HbA1c = 9.5%, diabetes duration = 1 year, and treated previously with DE only.

bCase 2: estimated HBPs for a White man, aged 50 years, BMI = 30, FPG = 150 mg/dL, HbA1c = 9%, diabetes duration = 1 year, and treated previously with DE only after 12 weeks or DE+S monotherapy.

cCase 3: estimated HBPs for a White woman, aged 40 years, BMI = 38, FPG = 145 mg/dL, HbA1c = 9.0%, diabetes duration = 5 years, prior diabetes medications.

dCase 4: estimated HBPs for a Black man, aged 40 years, BMI = 30, FPG = 145 mg/dL, HbA1c c = 9.0%, diabetes duration = 5 years, no prior diabetes medications.
