Why effective Web app firewalls are worth the investment
Web app firewalls offer excellent protection against threats and attacks, but security expert Dan Cornell says investment is required to get results.
How much work will a Web application firewall do? How much attention does it need to keep it in sync with applications that are continuously improving?

Rather than asking how much work your Web application firewall can do for you, start by asking how much you want to do for your WAF. This is an important question to ask before you embark on deploying a WAF, especially one that is going to be guarding an application or applications with a fast development cycle. Web app firewalls can provide excellent protection against certain types of threats and certain types of attacks, but many organizations embark on deployments without a full understanding of the investment required to achieve the desired results.
Start by asking how much you want to do for your WAF.
Most commercial WAFs have two important capabilities: training and customization. If you are looking to deploy a WAF to detect and block application attacks, certain characteristics of your application are going to determine how effective the detection and blocking will be and how much work will be required to maintain custom protections.
For applications that are frequently changed, protection thresholds may need to be relaxed in order to avoid false blocks, as the training capabilities may fail to keep pace with an accelerated deployment schedule. In addition, complex applications or ones with unique requirements will likely require rule customization to shape how the WAF's detection and blocking algorithms view traffic sent to the application.
Added customization can make WAFs more effective in detecting and blocking, but these customizations take time and have to be maintained as applications evolve. A failure to maintain rule sets can result in degraded protection over time, as well as requests that are blocked unnecessarily.
Many organizations look at Web app firewalls as protection technologies that are deployed to detect and stop attacks before they can result in some sort of loss or compromise. This is certainly desirable, but, as previously discussed, actually achieving these results can be challenging and involve hidden or unplanned costs. An alternate way to look at a WAF deployment is to consider it a way to gain intelligence about the application's usage and attack patterns.
In intelligence-gathering deployments, blocking rules are eliminated or scaled back, and the focus is instead on gathering log data about traffic patterns, suspicious requests over time and so on. This can provide a picture of reconnaissance activities and also potentially provide forensic value in case of an incident. These types of deployments might not live up to the hype surrounding so-called magic WAFs that are deployed, instantly learn about the application and are then successful blocking all attacks, but they might be more realistic, given an organization's level of resources and commitment to ongoing investment in its WAF deployment.
In the end, an organization should embark on a WAF deployment only if it has a thought-out set of goals for the deployment, other than, "Please make my auditor leave me alone." An organization also needs to have realistic expectations about the level of protection it will receive, as well as the amount of investment that will be required to achieve that protection.

Gov't spending as of May still below target
popular .
Government spending in the first five months of the year jumped by a double-digit pace from that of the same period last year.
The Department of Finance reported Thursday that government expenditures amounted to P751.21 billion from January to May—up by 12.4 percent from the P668.39 billion reported in the same period last year.
However, spending in the first five months was still significantly lower than the official target set for the first semester. Under its fiscal program, the government should spend P945.7 billion throughout the first semester. This means that, if the government were to follow its own spending program for the first half of the year, it would need to dispose of P194.5 billion in June alone.
Budget Secretary Florencio Abad said in a statement that the government intends to ramp up spending in the months ahead in order to stick to its full-year expenditure goal and provide the necessary boost to the economy.
"We're looking at accelerating disbursements further and, more crucially, ensuring high-impact spending that will translate to direct, immediate, and sustainable benefits to Filipinos," Abad said.
Also, the DOF reported that total government revenues collected in the first five months reached P708.37 billion—9.7 percent higher than the P645.64 billion collected in the same period last year.
Despite the significant rise in collections, the government may not attain its official revenue target for the first semester.
The government set a goal of collecting P861.04 billion in the first half of this year. This means that line agencies, led by the Bureau of Internal Revenue and the Bureau of Customs, would need to collect P152.67 billion in June alone to meet the government target.
Revenue Commissioner Kim Henares said the tax bureau would continue going after tax evaders and step up tax audits to boost collection.

. The usual assumption for proofs of the optimality of lossless encoding is a stationary ergodic source. Dynamic sources with non-stationary probability distributions occur in many practical situations where the data source is constructed by a composition of distinct sources, for example, a document with multiple authors, a multimedia document, or the composition of distinct packets sent over a communication channel. There is a vast literature of adaptive methods used to tailor the compression to dynamic sources. However, little is known about optimal or near optimal methods for lossless compression of strings generated by sources that are not stationary ergodic. Here we do not assume the source is stationary. Instead we assume that the source produces an infinite sequence of concatenated finite strings s 1 ; s 2 ; : : : where (i) each finite string s i is generated by a sampling of a (possibly distinct) stationary ergodic source S i , and (ii) the length of each of the s i is lower b...

SEATTLE -- Acknowledging a rising wage disparity across the United States, President Barack Obama called for the federal minimum wage to be increased from $7.25 to $10.10 per hour.
He used the forum of his State of the Union address to plead his case, while declaring his intention to use executive powers to make a similar increase for new federal contract workers.
The cold, hard fact is even in the midst of recovery, more Americans are working hard just to get by, let alone to get ahead, the President said.
Join the rest of the country, he implored Congress, Say yes. Give America a raise.
The President's call for an increased minimum wage was greeted with muted optimism in Seattle, where Mayor Ed Murray and Councilwoman Kshama Sawant have pushed for a $15 wage.
Sawant was pleased the President indicated he wanted to raise the federal minimum, but added $10.10 for the next three years...is not a ticket out of poverty for working families.
Rep.Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-Washington) gave the Republican response to the State of the Union, claiming the President made more promises that sound good, but won't actually solve the problems facing America.
Democrats tout the plan to raise the minimum wage will help around 500,000 federal workers. It likely would not take effect for at least two years, and could face legal challenges.

Dual monitor config w/o HDMI
1 Attachment(s)
My old 9600GT had deceased, so I bought a new GTX560 based card with a pair of DVI connectors and one HDMI.
The trouble is I can't do without two monitors (I've a pair of BENQ 241W ones), but when I connect them both via DVI, the second one doesn't get recognised and remains black.
When I attach the first monitor to DVI (no matter which), and the second to HDMI, it does work, but the picture on the second screen is horrible, probably, because it takes my monitor for TV and also downscales everything from 1920x1200 to FullHD (can't change that in nvsettings).
I'm using the latest 64-bit drivers and old good config (attached) that worked OK with the previous card.
I'd be very grateful if somebody would explain how to fix that!

Incumbent President of Nigeria Goodluck Jonathan today conceded defeat in last weekend's election, and called President-Elect Muhammadu Buhari to congratulate him. The election has generally appeared to be the fairest in Nigeria's history and mostly free of the bloodshed of Jonathan's 2011 defeat of Buhari; this transition will mark Nigeria's first transfer of power to an opposition party after an election. Buhari's presidency will be his second administration as leader of Nigeria after acting as the head of a military junta from 1983 to 1985. [more inside]
Let Us Face the Future - "All parties pay lip service to the idea of jobs for all. All parties are ready to promise to achieve that end by keeping up the national purchasing power and controlling changes in the national expenditure through Government action. Where agreement ceases is in the degree of control of private industry that is necessary to achieve the desired end. In hard fact, the success of a full employment programme will certainly turn upon the firmness and success with which the Government fits into that programme the investment and development policies of private as well as public industry."

Obama won Ohio by two points, and Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown won by five, but Democrats emerged with just four of Ohio's 16 House seats. In Wisconsin, Obama prevailed by seven points, and Democratic Senate candidate Tammy Baldwin by five, but their party finished with just three of the state's eight House seats. In Virginia, Obama and Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Tim Kaine were clear victors, but Democrats won just three of the commonwealth's 11 House seats. In Florida, Obama eked out a victory and Democratic Sen. Bill Nelson won by 13 points, but Democrats will hold only 10 of the Sunshine State's 27 House seats. The Revenge of 2010: How gerrymandering saved the congressional Republican majority, undermined Obama's mandate, set the terms of the sequestration fight, and locked Democrats out of the House for the next decade. It's not a new problem. But if the Supreme Court guts the Voting Rights Act, it could get a whole lot worse. And the electoral college may be next. (What's gerrymandering, you ask? Let the animals explain. Meet the Gerry-mander. Peruse the abused. Catch the movie. Or just play the game. Previously.)

Iraqi insurgents are rejecting al-Qaida in favour of the political process. Ghaith Abdul-Ahad spent 5 days with an Iraqi resistance group during the constitutional vote, and found that al-Qaida involvement in the insurgency-particularly their tactic of targetting Iraqi police and soldiers-is both unwelcome and unwanted. Instead many Sunni are looking toward using the democratic process to achieve their ends.

In July Diebold's voting machines were rejected by the state of California after "possibly the most extensive testing ever on a voting system" revealed a high incidence of crashes and paper jams. Not to mention the undocumented backdoor in Diebold's GEMS vote tabulator. Meanwhile, in Ohio, two officials of the Cuyahoga County Board of Elections have been indicted by a grand jury on charges that they "did not permit a random selection of precincts for the recount and it did not let witnesses oversee the opening of the sealed ballot cases and the first recount of the votes." And John Conyers is urging Americans to oppose a proposed national ID voting requirement, which he calls a "21st Century poll tax". Is this what democracy looks like?

PREP Q&A: Busy Bee
Mt. Carmel's Voris is never without a sport to play each season
Carly Voris is a rare breed of high school athletes, a three-sport performer in an age where almost everyone else specializes with one sport.
The Mt. Carmel High junior began playing volleyball, basketball and lacrosse in elementary and middle schools and just couldn't bring herself to give up even one of them once she got to high school.
She played outside hitter in volleyball, forward in basketball and midfielder in lacrosse where she scored 14 goals and had five assists in 2008.
She's experienced so much success as a Sundevil with league and CIF San Diego Section championships as well as being named to all-league teams as well in her three seasons there.
Q: As busy as your schedule is, how do you compete in volleyball and basketball without playing on a club team in either sport?
A: I was told I had to quit something so I could fit in a club team, but I didn't want to give up anything. I was the only girl on our volleyball team that didn't play club.
Q: Wouldn't just playing two sports give you more time for something else?
A: I still have lots of time for other things. It's just that I hate to sit around the house and do nothing. I got on great teams right away, so I have no regrets. I've always been interested in drama, but just never had the time to really get into it. I hear seniors groan about not playing their sports and wishing they'd stayed in their sport.
Q: That won't happen to you will it?
A: No way. I can lift weights the rest of my life and I want to play basketball and volleyball after I'm done here. Once you graduate from high school, it's over and you can't go back and do it again. It's over.
Q: When did you actually start playing your three sports?
A: Basketball was second grade. Volleyball I started in seventh grade. Lacrosse I first saw in middle school. I love basketball and lacrosse because there's so much running involved.
Q: What's the best part of playing three sports?
A: I have three times as many friends as most athletes.
Q: Any one of the three sports hold a special place in your heart?
A: Lacrosse. I spent most of last summer traveling all over the East Coast. I played in the North Carolina camp, at Oregon and I played with the West Coast All-Stars in a tournament in Maryland. I still had time to hang out with my friends a little bit.
Q: In girls lacrosse there is less contact than in the boys. Do you wish there was more contact in the girls game?
A: I like the finesse of the girls game instead of just going out and beating each other up like some boys games wind up being.
Q: How many letters have you won so far at Mt. Carmel in those three sports?
A: Three in volleyball, three in basketball and three in lacrosse, so nine in all.

Hat Nai Yang Beach, Phuket
4 Reviews
4 Reviews
This is a beautiful beach and everyone is so friendly. No fancy restaurants (except maybe at the few bigger hotels?) but lots of small restaurants right on the beach - eat with your bare feet in the sand - it feels so good! There are also casual restaurants not right on the beach. Delicious food at all the places we tried and not expensive at all!
Set in a national park, this beach is very laid-back and uncommercial. Now more than 2 hotels, as well as private bungalows. Excellent job cleaning up the tsunami damange! See my other travel descriptions for a better look at the beach and things to do.
You can visit the little coconut tree-covered island at Nai Yang Beach by walking there during low tide and you'll probably have it all to yourself like we did (during high season). It's a nice little place to hang out but be sure to wear sports sandals or old trainers as you have to walk over some dead coral and rocks. Don't be a doofus like me and wear flip-flops 'cause you will have problems. A coral reef is off the far side of it, my husband saw some interesting things while snorkeling. We saw some locals hunting for things in the shallows around the island, maybe mussels.
You can see more about this lovely beach in my other tips.
Nai Yang Beach is set in a lovely national park, so you have a chance to see some wildlife. We saw this guy on the shore of the small headland, catching fish. See my other tips for a full description of the beach and things to do.
Nai Yang is one of the least unknown beaches in Phuket, and yet one of the most beautiful.
The beach is included in a national park, and there is also the park's headquarter.
The sand is the whitest in Phuket, there's a coral reef with small coloured fished swimming around, and there is a long row of pine trees that border the beach. Only two hotels plus the park's basic bungalows.
To eat there are a few stalls plus the park's restaurant.
Definitely deserves a day trip.

Beyoncé blasts off into space? Well, not exactly, but she did record a special wake up call for the crew aboard the Atlantis space shuttle.
The crew of four were awakened by Bey's voice over her single "Run the World (Girls)" from her latest album 4.
According to MSNBC.com, Beyoncé greeted the astronauts, thanked them for their hard work and inspiration.
"Good morning, Atlantis. This is Beyoncé," she said to the NASA space shuttle crew as they awakened. "Sandy, Chris, Doug and Rex, you inspire all of us to dare to live our dreams, to know that we're strong enough and smart enough to achieve them."
Sandy, the only woman aboard, also received a special shout out for "running" space and providing motivation for all of the girls still down here on Earth.
"This song is especially for my girl Sandy," she said to the mission specialist. "And all the women who've taken us to space with them and the girls who are our future explorers."
Sandy sent an excited reply to Houston saying thanks to Beyoncé for taking the time out of her schedule to record the space travelers a greeting.
"We're ready for another day here in Atlantis!" Sandy said. "Hopefully, we as a team at NASA can keep our inspirational work up for the young people of America."
The Atlantis space shuttle will be landing at the International Space Station to deliver supplies. It is set to return to Florida in less than a week.

Magoo, did you read this?
I have re-read Marciano_Frazier's initial post ( not all of it could be re-posted here due to character limit ), and he has his share of
points. I take it many liked his examples of Frazier facing highly ranked ring magazine contenders on his way up in the 1960's? Do we all agree here? Yes or no?
Read on. Can others ( M_F, John Thomas, and Chris ) admit the reverse? I see a pattern of Frazier not picking or facing higher ranked big punchers besides Foreman in the 1970's, and not facing the biggest pucnhers in the 60's ( Patterson, Liston, or Mac Foster )
Let us fully examine them fairly, and like Marciano_Frazier's use Ring Magazine Annual ratings as the benchmark for the 1970's to see if Frazier avoided matches with higher ranked pucnhers.
This is fair:
Frazier picked two non-ranked top ten guys in 1972 in Stander and Daniels. Why?
Patterson, Norton, and Lyle
were ranked fighters in 1972, They were also punchers. Check the annual ratings in 1972:
Muhammad Ali
George Foreman
Jimmy Ellis
Ron Lyle
Floyd Patterson
Ernie Terrell
Jose Roman
Joe Bugner
Ken Norton
Jose Luis Garcia
In 1973, Fraizer lost to Foreman badly, then picked gun shy - light punching Bugner, while punchers such as
Norton, Lyle and Shavers
were all rated higher annually by Ring Magazine.
George Foreman
Muhammad Ali
Joe Frazier
Ken Norton
Jerry Quarry
Ron Lyle
Earnie Shavers
Oscar Bonavena
Joe Bugner
Jimmy Ellis
Chuck Wepner
1974: Why pick Quarry again? At least Quarry was ranked, yet as we can see
Lyle and Norton
were once again rated higher.
Muhammad Ali
George Foreman
Joe Frazier
Ron Lyle
Oscar Bonavena
Joe Bugner
Ken Norton
Jerry Quarry
Chuck Wepner
Henry Clark
Larry Middleton
1975, and this one's really bad. Why pick a washed up Ellis? Ellis, like Stander and Daniels was not annually ring ranked. Ellis was done. Once again, punchers like
Norton, Lyle, and Shavers
were highly ranked. If Frazier wanted to pass Norton, a fight with Lyle or Shavers might have done it. Or why not pick Norton? Heck, Bobbick who really was not that good, had a decent enough right hand and he would have been a much better choice then Ellis.
Muhammad Ali
Ken Norton
Jimmy Young
Joe Frazier
George Foreman
Ron Lyle
Earnie Shavers
Duane Bobick
Joe Bugner
Chuck Wepner
Randy Neumann
Summary: Using ring ranking, fights with Patterson, Shavers, Lyle, and Norton could have been made and were all higher rated that ANYONE Frazier fought with the exception of Foreman. I have little doubt Frazier management avoided punchers in the 1970's. I am twisitng no facts here at all. We know who was higher ranked, and we know who the pucnhers were. I also beleive Patterson, Shavers, Lyle, and Norton hit harder than ANYONE Frazier beat.
Regarding the second Foreman vs Frazier fight in 1976, it was clear Foreman lost a lot of confidence from the Ali fight. Foreman was nearly upset by Lyle before the 2nd fight with Frazier. So perhaps Frazier's' team figured this time was the best to avenge a bad TKO loss. As it was, Frazier did much better the second time around, but still did not come close to beating a mentally deflated Foreman.

William Francis Smith
William Francis Smith (February 24, 1904 – February 26, 1968) was an American jurist who served on the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey and the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit.
Smith was born in 1904 in Perth Amboy, New Jersey, the son of John Stephan Smith and Ann Elizabeth Owens.[1] After graduating from the Columbia University School of Pharmacy, he was named deputy mayor of Perth Amboy in 1926.[2]
His work in municipal government led to an interest in law, and in 1929 he enrolled in the New Jersey Law School. He received a law degree the following year and joined the school's faculty as an instructor, remaining until 1935.[2] On August 29, 1935, he married Marie Cathers.[1]
He served as U.S. Attorney for the District of New Jersey from 1940 to 1941.[1][3] In 1941, at the age of 37, he was appointed to the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey. He was believed to have been the youngest Federal Court judge at the time of his appointment. In 1959 he was called upon by Chief Justice Earl Warren to clear up a logjam that had developed at the Brooklyn Federal Court of the Eastern District of New York, and he brought the court's docket up to date in six months.[2]
Smith remained on the New Jersey district court bench until 1961, when President Kennedy appointed him to the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit. He served until his death in 1968. He died at the age of 64 at St. Peter's Hospital in New Brunswick, New Jersey, where he lived.[2]

The new research offers what is believed to be the first evidence that mutations within cancer cells can signal surrounding tissue cells to alter their molecular composition in ways that promote tumor growth and proliferation. Moreover, the findings also suggest that cell mutations that promote cancer progression may arise in cells other than the predominant cancer cell.
The new findings are published as the cover story in today's (Dec. 16) issue of the journal Cell.While not offering immediate application to the treatment of human cancers, the research indicates that new anti-tumor therapies may be more effective if their targets are broadened to include molecules within supporting cells of the cancer.These additional target cells are in the tumor's surrounding "microenvironment," or stroma, including the supporting connective tissue that forms the framework of organs such as the breast, colon and prostate. They also are found in the tumor's blood vessels, or its vasculature.
"Basically, virtually all the studies on genetic changes or changes in gene expression have focused on the cancer cell, on events within the cancer cell itself," said Dr. Terry Van Dyke, professor of genetics and biochemistry and biophysics in the School of Medicine, member of the UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center and the study's senior author.Thus, research focused solely on the predominant cancer cell, such as epithelial cells that form the bulk of many tumors including breast cancer, would be on the accumulated mutations that have allowed the cell to survive and grow unchecked. "But over the last several years, it has become increasingly clear that cancer involves complex interactions among different types of cell compartments, and, as in any organ, these compartments

LUCKNOW: The Uttar Pradesh Government is planning to move the Supreme Court early next year seeking relaxation for tourists visiting the Taj Mahal at Agra for moonlit viewing. The government would approach the apex court in January when the resumption of night viewing of the world famous monument -- following an apex court order -- completes one year.
The State will also petition the court for reduction in the night viewing fee from the current Rs 750 for 30 minutes.
Hinting at the State Government's move, Tourism Minister Kokab Hamid said at present tourists were allowed only a distant glimpse of the Taj during night viewing schedules. ``We will plead the court to allow tourists up to the main edifice so that they can marvel at its beauty,'' he added.
Observing that the entry fee for night viewing was steep for the common man, Mr Hamid said the apex court would be urged to reduce the same so that more people could avail of the facility.
Night viewing is permitted for five nights at a stretch during a full-moon (one full-moon night and two nights each before and after the full-moon). However, any Friday falling in the midst of the schedule is excluded from viewing. Seven teams of 50 tourists each are allowed per night.
Night-viewing of Taj Mahal was banned in 1984, but it resumed for a couple of days in December, 2000 for special reasons. -- UNI

Civilization and its latest Discontents. Review: Against History, Against Leviathan!Submitted by RevolutionaryRumors on Wed, 07/21/2010 - 04:07.
Fredy Perlman's influential book Against His-tory, Against Leviathan! expresses the position of the new 'primitivist' current in which the enemy is not capital but progress. Going beyond leftist notions of the basic neutrality of technology is a step in the right direction; but seeing all technology as essentially alienating is a mystification. Since it is itself an expression in theory of a radical setback, primitivism contributes little to the practical problem we all face of overthrowing capitalism.

Since the last thread went so well on keyboards I should get…
What monitor should I get?
The best monitor you can think of, list it. Your monitor, a friends monitor a monitor you've found on the net… any monitor.. post it
LED Cinema Display http://www.apple.com/displays/ & http://www.apple.com/imac
Monitors are overrated… use your imagination instead… it's more rewarding, less errors…

LED Cinema Display http://www.apple.com/displays/ & http://www.apple.com/imac
well, here it really depends on the budget!
If you have money look at this brand: http://www.eizo.com/
If you are on a tiny budget, some of the Samsung screens are awesome: 2443BWT – http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824001371
some of Samsung screens are pure shit. I have SyncMaster 244T at work. It is brilliant. Than based on the brand I purchased shiny Samsung shit (do not remember the model). Soon I realized that the quality is not based on the Brand. Some models are just awesome and some are crap.
All apple monitors compared to the mentioned Samsung above have more calm, lower contrast color. They look awesome, just I do not want to spend a fortune just to have the apple logo on my screen.
In my opinion double screen is a must.
Also I prefer mat vs glossy. http://www.flickr.com/photos/gepat/173245190/in/photostream/
You should really get 2 monitors then have them set side by side. 2 Alienware OptX AW2210 21 .5" monitors. 1920×1080 resolution. Best monitor in my opinion.
and on sale at the moment too! $70 off.

People who are at high risk of having a child with sickle cell anemia and are planning to have children may want to consider genetic counseling. A counselor can explain the risk (likelihood) of having a child who has the disease. He or she also can help explain the choices that are available.
You can find information about genetic counseling from health departments, neighborhood health centers, medical centers, and clinics that care for people who have sickle cell anemia.

There have been so many theories flying around the internet recently pertaining to why Nintendo are struggling, with some of them being incredibly bizarre. Theories aside, there is one element to Nintendo's situation which makes me a little sad, mainly for a generation of youngsters who are growing up with the likes of Grand Theft Auto, Call of Duty, and various other 'big hitters' that all tend to blur together. Simply put, the Nintendo generation may be dying out.

Series Finale
Episode 26 — George & Kym Rapier: Oakridge, Oregon
George Rapier is the founder of WellMed, a medical management company that provides services to senior citizens. He and his wife, Kym, leave the comforts of their home and lives in Texas to travel to the town of Oakridge, Oregon.
With a population of just over 3,000 people, Oakridge was once a booming town with the lumber industry as its main source of employment, but today, the mills have shut down and the local economy is struggling.
George and Kym set out in search of people and organizations in need. During their week-long visit, the couple meet a number of people who touch and move them in amazing ways… including a mom who works tirelessly to raise money for local high school students by organizing fundraisers and volunteering her time at school sporting events, a former principal who started a snack program providing provisions to students, who in many cases would not have food to eat on days when school is not in session, the local physician's assistant at Five Rivers Family Practice, the only medical facility in Oakridge, and the local firehouse, which has only four, full-time, paid employees and relies on 52 volunteer firemen to service the Oakridge area.
After a week of getting to know the people of Oakridge, George and Kym donate more than one million dollars of their personal fortune — providing the entire town of Oakridge the largest donation in the history of the show.
First aired: September 8, 2013.

Presentation Number 779
Poster Session 062--Exenatide: twice daily to once weekly
Tuesday, Sept. 13, 2011, 1:30-2:30 p.m. Western European Summer TimeThe 26-week, double-blind, randomized, four-arm parallel study enrolled 820 drug-naive patients with type 2 diabetes and compared BYDUREON with metformin, Januvia and Actos monotherapies. The primary endpoint was reduction in A1C levels, while secondary endpoints included change in body weight along with other parameters of glucose control, cardiovascular health and patient-reported outcomes.
The post-hoc analyses assessed change in cardiovascular risk factors; correlations between changes in risk factors and body weight for each treatment group; and the percentage of patients achieving composite goals (A1C <7 percent, no weight gain and no minor or major hypoglycemia; and A1C <7 percent, systolic blood pressure <130 mmHg and LDL cholesterol <100 mg/dL). At baseline, more than 50 percent of patients had abnormal blood pressure and lipids, except for total cholesterol.
