National trends in treatment initiation for nursing home residents with diabetes mellitus, 2008 to 2010.

They found that, between 2008 and 2010, there were substantial decreases in the use of oral glucose-lowering agents and corresponding increases in the use of insulin among long-term residents of US nursing homes.
