Aim
To evaluate the clinical and microbiological profile of diabetic foot ulcer patients admitted to a tertiary care hospital.Methodology
This study recruited 120 diabetic foot ulcer patients of all grade. Their medical records were evaluated retrospectively.Results
We found that median age of patient was 60(52, 67.75) years. 68.3% of patients were males. Median duration of diabetes mellitus was 15(10, 20) years. Mean HbA1C and fasting glucose was 10.3 ± 2.3 and 167.6 ± 52.42 respectively. Neuropathy (35%) and peripheral vascular disease (23.3%) was major micro vascular and macro vascular complication associated. Different locations of ulcers were toe (23.3%), sole (20%), dorsum (18.3%), shin (16.6%), heel (13.3%), and ankle (8.3%). Bacterial infection was seen in 81.66% patients out of which 23.3% had poly microbial infection.Conclusion
Diabetic foot ulcer patient had poor blood glucose control with elevated HbA1C and fasting blood glucose level. Neuropathy and peripheral vascular disease, hypertension were major complications. Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa were common infecting bacteria. 相似文献2.

Aims
The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of diabetes among women 5 years after having gestational diabetes during pregnancy. Also, we sought to determine whether women who develop diabetes after GD during pregnancy differ from women who do not develop diabetes after GD during pregnancy.Methods
This longitudinal study was performed using data from medical birth certificates and CroDiab diabetes registry. Women burdened with gestational diabetes in Croatia in 2011 were followed up until year 2016. Those registered in CroDiab registry were recognised as new patients with diabetes.Results
Among 40,641 deliveries in 2011, gestational diabetes was reported in 1181 (2.9%) women. Among them 853 (72.23%) were followed up in CroDiab diabetes registry and 32 (3.75%) were identified as new patients with diabetes. Median time from childbirth to onset of diabetes was 29.12 months. The diabetes group did not significantly differ to the group without diabetes according to age (p = 0.587), level of education (p = 0.549) or marital status (p = 0.849) except that the diabetes group was significantly more obese than the group without diabetes (p = 0.002).Conclusions
Based on CroDiab diabetes registry data prevalence of diabetes 5 years after pregnancy complicated with gestational diabetes is 3.75% in Croatia. Women with gestational diabetes during pregnancy, and especially those with higher BMIs, are an important risk group for developing diabetes later in life so screening and preventive measures should be oriented toward them in primary care settings. 相似文献3.

Aims
Determine the mortality experience among adults with diabetes in meeting and not meeting less intense control for glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), blood pressure (BP), and cholesterol.Methods
National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 1999–2010 participants with self-report of diagnosed diabetes (N = 3335), measured HbA1c, BP and non-HDL cholesterol were linked to the National Death Index through December 31, 2011. Proportional hazards models were used to estimate hazard ratios (HR) of meeting HbA1c < 9% and BP < 160/110, and non-HDL cholesterol < 190 mg/dL. Models used age as the time scale and adjusted for demographics (sex, race/ethnicity, education), diabetes duration, history of cardiovascular and chronic kidney disease, and treatments for elevated glucose, BP, and cholesterol.Results
Over a mean 5.4 person-years of follow-up, participants meeting all less intense control had a 37% lower mortality (HR = 0.63, 95% CI 0.54, 0.74) relative to those who did not meet the goals. Of approximately 306,000 deaths per year that occur among Americans with diabetes, we estimate 39,400 might have been averted by improving the care of those who have not met these less intense control goals.Conclusions
Meeting the less intense control goals is associated with 37% reduction in mortality and could lead to 39,400 fewer deaths per year. 相似文献4.

Aims
To assess whether an integrated hospital-community diabetes management program could improve major cardiovascular risk factor control among patients with diabetes in real-world clinical settings.Methods
985 adults with diabetes in the Shanghai Taopu community health service center were enrolled at baseline and 907 subjects completed the follow-up. The follow-up levels of the metabolic profiles were assessed by their averages during the follow up period.Results
After a mean 7-year follow-up period, heamoglobin A1c, systolic and diastolic blood pressure levels decreased by 0.6%, 5.7 mmHg, and 1.5 mmHg, respectively (all P < 0.001). There was a non-significant difference in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, while high-density lipoprotein cholesterol increased 1.9 mg/dL and triglycerides decreased 28.3 mg/dL, respectively (all P < 0.001). The percentage of patients with diabetes who met any one of three Chinese Diabetes Society goals (heamoglobin A1c <7.0%, blood pressure <140/80 mmHg, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol <100 mg/dL) increased from 58.2% to 70.1%. The chronic diabetes complication screening rates (diabetic retinopathy, diabetic neuropathy, diabetic nephropathy) have significantly increased, from almost zero to 12–78%.Conclusions
This long-term program has increased the proportions of attaining major cardiovascular risk factors control goals and diabetic chronic complication screening rates among patients with diabetes. 相似文献5.

Introduction
Foot disease is a common complication of type 2 diabetes that can have tragic consequences. Abnormal plantar pressures are considered to play a major role in the pathologies of neuropathic ulcers in the diabetic foot.Aim
To examine Relationship of Planter Pressure and Glycemic Control in Type 2 Diabetic Patients with and without Neuropathy.Materials and methods
The study was conducted on 50 type 2 diabetic patients and 30 healthy volunteers. BMI calculation, disease duration, Hemoglobin A1c and presence of neuropathy (by history, foot examination and DN4 questionnaire) were recorded. Plantar pressure was recorded for all patients using the Mat-scan (Tekscan, Inc.vers. 6.34 Boston USA) in static conditions (standing) and dynamic conditions (taking a step on the Mat-scan). Plantar pressures (kPa) were determined at the five metatarsal areas, mid foot area, medial and lateral heel areas and medial three toes.Results
Static and dynamic plantar pressures in both right and left feet were significantly higher in diabetic with neuropathy group than in control group in measured areas (P < 0.05). Static and dynamic pressures in right and left feet were significantly higher in diabetic with neuropathy group than in diabetic without neuropathy group in measured areas (P < 0.05). On comparison between controls and diabetic without neuropathy group there was a significant difference in plantar pressures especially in metatarsal areas (P < 0.05). No significant correlations were present between the studied variables age, disease duration, BMI and HbA1c and plantar pressures in all studied areas.Conclusion
Persons with diabetic neuropathy have elevated peak plantar pressure (PPP) compared to patients without neuropathy and control group. HbA1c% as a surrogate for glycemic control had no direct impact on peak planter pressure, yet it indirectly impacts neuropathy evolution through out disease duration eventually leading to the drastic planter pressure and gait biomechanics changes. 相似文献6.

Aim
Diabetes is a growing public health problem in India which is soon going to become the ‘diabetes capital’ of the world. It requires regular care and follow up. We aimed to estimate the household out-of-pocket (OOP) expenditure and catastrophic expenditure due to hospitalization and outpatient care as a result of diabetes.Materials and methods
Secondary analysis of nationally representative data for India collected by National Sample Survey Organization in 2014, reporting on health service utilization and health care related OOP expenditure by income quintiles and by type of health facility (public or private).Results
The median household OOP expenditure from hospitalization due to diabetes was USD 151, and was 3 times higher among the richest quintile compared to the poorest quintile (p < 0.001). There was a significantly higher prevalence (p < 0.001) of catastrophic expenditure among the poorest quintile (36%) compared to the richest (14%). Median private sector OOP hospitalization expenditure was four times higher than the public sector (p < 0.001). Medicines accounted for 41% and 69% of public sector hospitalization and outpatient care respectively. Concentration indices show gross inequity in hospitalization expenditure, prevalence of catastrophic expenditure and utilization of public health facility.Conclusion
Households with diabetic patients incur a high risk of catastrophic expenditure, particularly for those in the lowest income quintiles and those seeking care in the private sector. Increased availability and access to essential drugs and strengthening of public facilities will significantly reduce OOP expenditure. 相似文献7.
Aim
The role of glycaemic control in the mortality of elderly diabetic patients remains uncertain. GERODIAB is the first multi-centre, prospective, observational study that aims to describe the link between HbA1c and 5-year mortality in French, type 2 diabetic patients aged ≥ 70 years.Methods
Consecutive patients (n = 987; mean age 77 years) were included from 56 diabetes centres and followed for five years. Individual histories, risk factors, standard diabetes parameters and geriatric evaluations were regularly recorded. Survival was studied using the Kaplan–Meier method. Multivariable analyses used Cox regression.Results
Twenty-one percent of the patients died, 13% were lost during follow-up. Patients with a 5-year mean HbA1c in the range [40–50) mmol/mol ([5.8–6.7) %) had the highest survival (84%); those in the range [50–70) mmol/mol ([6.7–8.6) %) or < 40 mmol/mol (< 5.8%) an intermediary survival rate (79%); patients with HbA1c ≥ 70 mmol/mol (≥ 8.6%) the worst survival (71%). Patients with mean HbA1c ≥ 70 mmol/mol (≥ 8.6%) had a significantly higher mortality than those with lower HbA1c (P = 0.011), and HbA1c remained a significant predictor of mortality after adjusting for individual, diabetic and geriatric factors (hazards ratio [95%CI]: 1.76 [1.21 to 2.57], P = 0.0033). Survival was also significantly associated with both HbA1c variability and with the frequency of HbA1c determinations.Conclusion
In this large sample of elderly French type 2 diabetic patients, an HbA1c level < 70 mmol/mol (< 8.6%) was associated with lower mortality. The range [40–50) mmol/mol ([5.8–6.7) %) could be an acceptable target provided patients are not exposed to hypoglycaemia. 相似文献8.

Aim
Diabetic peripheral neuropathy is an important complication and contributes to the morbidity of diabetes mellitus. Evidence indicates early detection of diabetic peripheral neuropathy results in fewer foot ulcers and amputations. The aim of this study was to compare different screening modalities in the detection of diabetic peripheral neuropathy in a primary care setting.Method
A prospective non-experimental comparative multi-centre cross sectional study was conducted in various Primary Health Centres. One hundred participants living with Type 2 diabetes for at least 10 years were recruited using a convenience sampling method. The Vibratip, 128 Hz tuning fork and neurothesiometer were compared in the detection of vibration perception.Results
This study showed different results of diabetic peripheral neuropathy screening tests, even in the same group of participants. This study has shown that the percentage of participants who did not perceive vibrations was highest when using the VibraTip (28.5%). This was followed by the neurothesiometer (21%) and the 128 Hz tuning fork (12%) (p < 0.001).Conclusion
Correct diagnosis and treatment of neuropathy in patients with diabetes is crucial. This study demonstrates that some instruments are more sensitive to vibration perception than others. We recommend that different modalities should be used in patients with diabetes and when results do not concur, further neurological evaluation should be performed. This would significantly reduce the proportion of patients with diabetes who would be falsely identified as having no peripheral neuropathy and subsequently denied the benefit of beneficial and effective secondary risk factor control. 相似文献9.

Purpose
To determine the prevalence of depression and related risk factors among type 2 diabetes mellitus patients (T2DM) in Jazan area, Saudi Arabia.Method
A cross sectional, self-administered questionnaire study was conducted among T2DM patients in Jazan area, Saudi Arabia. A total of 385 patients were selected at randomly. The Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) was utilized to measure symptoms and signs of depression.Results
The overall prevalence of depression among T2DM patients was 37.6%. Of them, 24.2% were mildly depressed, 9.6% were moderately severely depressed, and 4.2% were severely depression. Significant predictors of depression include the presence of diabetic foot (P = 0.000), cardio-vascular diseases (P = 0.000), eye complication (P = 0.073), and erectile dysfunction (P = 0.090). The prevalence of depression was not significantly associated with the age (P = 0.375) and gender (P = 0.374). Similarly no association was found with duration of diabetes (P = 0.475) and HbA1c (P = 0.555).Conclusion
The study revealed that diabetes complications are strong predictors of the rate of depression among T2DM patients. Therefore, early depression screening is needed to improve the quality of life of diabetic patients. 相似文献11.

Background
The quality of life is an important indicator of quality of care in chronic diseases such as diabetes and TB. The present research is conducted with an aim to assess the Quality of Life of Diabetic Patients with Smear Positive PTB.Methods
This cross-sectional study was conducted on 62 diabetic patients with smear positive PTB from January to May 2016 in a diabetes clinic in Zahedan city (southeast of Iran). A simple random sampling method was used in this study. Instrument for data collection was quality of life (SF-36) questioner.Results
Total quality of life score was 48 that showed an average level of quality of life. Sixty-five patients with diabetes and affected by smear positive pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) with the average age of 51.30 ± 10.84 years participated in this research. Four patients (0.06%) suffered from type 1 diabetes and 58 (94%) from type 2 diabetes, and all of them were smear positive PTB patients. Study of their quality of life revealed that, in general, the average scores for quality of life in the two main subgroups of physical health and mental health were lower than the average and, among the eight studied dimensions, the highest scores were those for physical activity (60 ± 14.23) and the lowest (31.42 ± 12.14) for general health in the subgroup of physical health.Conclusion
Results indicated that the patients had a low quality of life although they received the care and treatments that are effective in patients with diabetes and suffering from smear-positive PTB. 相似文献12.

Objectives
To evaluate the role of primary care healthcare delivery on survival for American Indian patients with diabetes in the southwest United States.Methods
Data from patients with diabetes admitted to Gallup Indian Medical Center between 2009 and 2016 were analyzed using a log-rank test and Cox Proportional Hazards analyses.Results
Of the 2661 patients included in analysis, 286 patients died during the study period. Having visited a primary care provider in the year prior to first admission of the study period was protective against all-cause mortality in unadjusted analysis (HR (95% CI) = 0.47 (0.31, 0.73)), and after adjustment. The log-rank test indicated there is a significant difference in overall survival by primary care engagement history prior to admission (p < 0.001). The median survival time for patients who had seen a primary care provider was 2322 days versus 2158 days for those who had not seen a primary care provider.Conclusions
Compared with those who did not see a primary care provider in the year prior to admission, having seen a primary care provider was associated with improved survival after admission. 相似文献13.

Background
World Health Organization estimated that people with diabetes (DM) are at 2–3 times higher risk for tuberculosis (TB). Studies have shown that DM not only increases the risk of active TB, but also puts co-affected persons at increased risk of poor outcomes.Objectives
To determine the protective effect of metformin against TB in DM patients and also, to investigate the relationship between poor glycemic control and TB.Methods
A case–control study was conducted over 8 months, where cases and controls were selected based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria of the study. The diabetics diagnosed with TB were selected as study group (SG = 152) and without TB were as control group (CG = 299). Exposure status of metformin in both groups were analyzed.Results
The mean (SD) age of both CG and SG were 55.54 ± 11.82 and 52.80 ± 11.75, respectively. Majority of the subjects in the study were males. The mean hospital stay of SG and CG were 7 days and 6 days, respectively. Poor glycemic control (HbA1c > 8) observed in SG (51.7%) vs CG (31.4%). HbA1c value <7 is associated protective factor for TB occurrence [OR = 0.52 (95% CI 0.29–0.93)]. The protective effect of metformin against TB was 3.9-fold in diabetics (OR = 0.256, 0.16–0.40).Conclusion
Poor glycemic control among diabetics is a risk factor for TB occurrence. The result shows metformin use is a protective agent against TB infection in diabetics. Hence, incorporation of metformin into standard clinical care would offer a therapeutic option for the prevention of TB. 相似文献14.

Aim
This study investigates the prevalence of smell and taste impairment in adults with diabetes and potential risk factors for sense deterioration and its influence of daily food intake.Methods
Data from the NHANES 2013-2014 were analyzed. Smell impairment was defined as failing to identify?≥3 of 8 odors in NHANES Pocket Smell Test. Taste impairment was defined as being unable to identify quinine or NaCl in NHANES Tongue Tip and Whole-mouth Test.Results
A total of 3204 people (428 patients with diabetes, 2776 controls) were suitable to be included. The prevalence of smell impairment in patients with diabetes was higher compared to the controls: 22% versus 15% (p < 0.001). The difference prevailed after adjustment for age, BMI, alcohol misuse and smoking status. Taste was not impaired in patients with diabetes (p = 0.29). Patients with diabetes and smell impairment had a lower daily calorie intake compared to patients with diabetes and normal smell function. The duration of diabetes, diabetic complications and other potential risk factors were not associated with smell dysfunction.Conclusions
Smell dysfunction appears with a higher prevalence in patients with diabetes, and this seems to negatively affect daily food intake. 相似文献15.

Background
The epidemiology of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) suggests diagnostic delays may contribute to children developing diabetic ketoacidosis at diagnosis. We sought to quantify opportunities for earlier diagnosis of T1DM in primary care.Methods
A matched case-control study of children (0–16 years) presenting to UK primary care, examining routinely collected primary care consultation types and National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) warning signs in the 13 weeks before diagnosis.Results
Our primary analysis included 1920 new T1DM cases and 7680 controls. In the week prior to diagnosis more cases than controls had medical record entries (663, 34.5% vs 1014, 13.6%, odds ratio 3.46, 95% CI 3.07–3.89; p < 0.0001) and the incidence rate of face-to-face consultations was higher in cases (mean 0.32 vs 0.11, incidence rate ratio 2.90, 2.61–3.21; p < 0.0001). The preceding week entries were found in 330 cases and 943 controls (17.2% vs 12.3%, OR 1.49, 1.3–1.7, p < 0.0001), but face-to-face consultations were no different (IRR 1.08 (0.9–1.29, p = 0.42)).Interpretation
There may be opportunities to reduce time to diagnosis for up to one third of cases, by up to two weeks. Diagnostic opportunities might be maximised by measures that improve access to primary care, and public awareness of T1DM. 相似文献16.

Aim
As periodontitis may contribute to the pathogenesis of diabetes, the effects of periodontitis on diabetes incidence and HbA1c change was quantified in a prospective cohort.Methods
Data from an 11-year follow-up of the Study of Health in Pomerania were analyzed to evaluate the effects of periodontitis on incident diabetes and long-term HbA1c changes in 2047 subjects aged 20–81 years. Diabetes was based on self-reported physician diagnoses, antidiabetic medication use, or HbA1c ≥ 6.5% or non-fasting blood glucose levels ≥ 11.1 mmol/L. To assess periodontal status, periodontal pockets were probed, and their depth and clinical attachment levels measured. For both measures, means and percentages of sites ≥ 3 mm were calculated. In addition, all probing depths ≥ 4 mm were summed (cumulative probing depth). Modified Poisson and multivariable linear models were applied, adjusted for age, gender, highest level of general education, marital status, waist circumference, physical activity, smoking status and follow-up time.Results
Over a mean follow-up period of 11.1 years, 207 subjects developed diabetes. Baseline mean clinical attachment levels (CAL) and probing depths (PPD) were not significantly associated with either diabetes incidence [mean CALs, fourth quartile, incidence rate ratio = 0.819, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.489–1.370; P = 0.446] or long-term changes in HbA1c (mean CAL, fourth quartile, β = ?0.086, 95% CI: ?0.187, ?0.016; P = 0.098). Sensitivity analyses using alternative exposure definitions confirmed these results.Conclusion
Contrary to the currently available literature, no convincing evidence was found of any potential association between periodontitis and diabetes incidence or HbA1c change. 相似文献17.

Aims
The study aimed to launch a T2DM adult cohort that is representative of Hungary through a cross-sectional study, to produce the most important quality indicators for T2DM care, to describe social inequalities, and to estimate the absolute number of T2DM adult patients with uncontrolled HbA1c levels in Hungary.Methods
A representative sample of the Hungarian T2DM adults (N = 1280) was selected in 2016. GPs collected data on socio-demographic status by questionnaire, and on history and laboratory parameters from medical records. The process and outcome indicators used in the international monitoring practice were calculated. The socio-economic status influence was determined by multivariate logistic regression models.Results
Target achievement was 61.66%, 53.48%, and 54.00% for HbA1c, LDL-C, and blood pressure, respectively, in the studied sample (N = 1176). In Hungary, 294,534 patients have above target HbA1c value out of 495,801 T2DM adults. The education-dependent positive association with majority of process indicators was not reflected in HbA1c, LDL-C, and blood pressure target achievements. The risk of microvascular complications and requirement of insulin treatment were higher among less educated.Conclusions
According to our observations, the education-independent target achievement for HbA1c and LDL-C is similar as, for blood pressure is less effective in Hungary than in Europe. 相似文献18.

Background
It is being increasingly reported that some of the youth onset diabetes patients cannot be classified clearly as type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) or type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) based on usual criteria and the term double diabetes (DD) coined for these cases.Aim
The objective of the study was to find out the prevalence of DD in youth onset diabetes patients from east Delhi and neighboring NCR region.Methods
A total of 200 patients with youth onset diabetes below 25 years of age were recruited from a tertiary care hospital in East Delhi. Clinical history, family history of diabetes and anthropometry of patients were recorded. Fasting serum C-peptide, Anti-IA2-antibody and Anti-GAD-antibody were measured in all patients. Patients positive for Anti-GAD-antibody (>1.05 U/ml) and C-peptide level >0.3 nmol/l were characterized as DD patients. Patients negative for Anti-GAD-antibody and C-peptide >0.3 nmol/l were kept under the category of T2DM. Patients with low C-peptide level along with one of the following, positive Anti-GAD-antibody, positive Anti-IA2-antibody and diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) were considered as T1DM. Remaining patients were kept under the unknown category.Results
Mean age of study subjects was 18.2 ± 7.1 years. Seven percent (7%) of the subjects were classified as DD, 51% as T1DM, 13% as T2DM and 29% were kept under the unknown category. Mean age of subjects with 22.2 ± 9.7, 16.9 ± 6.7, 20.6 ± 7.7 and 19.4 ± 7.4 years in DD, T1DM, T2DM and unknown category respectively. Mean BMI of subjects with DD, T1DM, T2DM and unknown category was 19.8 ± 5.7, 16.6 ± 3.7, 19.3 ± 4.1 and 18.0 ± 4.6 kg/m2 respectively.Conclusion
Double diabetes is an important occurrence among youth onset diabetes subjects. Only half of the subjects with youth onset of diabetes had T1DM. 相似文献19.
