The patients were well motivated and improved control of diabetes was obtained. The method would seem to be useful for juvenile-onset diabetics, especially of the unstable type and for pregnant diabetics.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

The American Diabetes Association recommended that only a single fasting plasma glucose of greater than or equal to 7.0 mmol/l should be used for diagnosing diabetes in epidemiological studies and did not recommend using a 2-h oral glucose tolerance test. We evaluated the effect of diagnostic changes on the prevalence of diabetes and on the choice of subjects diagnosed with diabetes. Methods. Existing epidemiological data collected from Asian people between 30 and 89 years of age, was re-analysed separately in 11 population-based studies (n = 17 666), 6 pre-selected hyperglycaemic cohorts (n = 12 221) and one suspected diabetic cohort (n = 8 382). Results. Among the 11 population-based studies, the new fasting glucose criteria resulted in an overall reduction of 1.8 % in the prevalence of diabetes, which ranged from a reduction of 4.8 % to an increase of 1.7 % in the different studies. Of 1215 subjects diagnosed with diabetes by either criteria, only 449 met both criteria, a concordance of 37 %. More than half of the diabetic subjects had isolated post-challenge hyperglycaemia and three quarters of the subjects with impaired glucose tolerance, according to the 2-h glucose criteria, were normal according to the fasting glucose criteria. Subjects diagnosed as diabetic based only on the 2-h glucose criteria were, on average, older than those with diabetes according to the fasting criteria. Conclusion/interpretation. The fasting and the 2-h glucose criteria diagnose different groups of subjects. It would therefore be inappropriate to use the fasting glucose criteria alone for screening diabetes in Asian populations. [Diabetologia (2000) 43: 1470–1475]Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

The study was based on two population-based cohorts consisting of 1374 cases from Japan and 995 cases from Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, USA, who were diagnosed between 1 January 1965 and 31 December 1979. The living status and dialysis experience were determined as of 1 January 1990. The duration-adjusted renal-failure-related mortality rates in the Japanese cohort and the USA cohort were 277.2 and 130.9 per 100,000 person-years, and the duration-adjusted incidence rates of dialysis were 564.9 and 295.6 per 100,000 person-years, respectively. After adjustment for sex, age at onset, calendar year of onset, and duration of diabetes, individuals with insulin-dependent diabetes in the Japanese cohort were still 2.4-fold more likely to receive dialysis compared to those in the USA cohort. Ten of the 36 renal-failure-related deaths in the Japanese cohort had never been treated by dialysis, while all renal-failure-related deaths in the USA cohort had been treated by dialysis. Survival after initiation of dialysis in the Japanese cohort was virtually the same as the USA cohort. These data suggest that a greater frequency of diabetic end-stage renal disease and reduced access to acceptance at dialysis underlie much of the excess of diabetic renal deaths in Japan.

The study was based on the population-based cohort of IDDM subjects in the Diabetes Epidemiology Research International Mortality Study. We studied 90 cases who died and 90 living control subjects, selected from the rest of the cohort, who were matched for sex, birth year, year of diagnosis and duration of diabetes. Socioeconomic and behavioural status were surveyed through a questionnaire. Conditional logistic regression analyses based on 55 respondent pairs revealed that the better educated patients (year of completing education: odds ratio =0.66) who kept the same physician (number of times a patient changed physician: odds ratio =2.77) and who attended a clinic specializing in diabetes (attendance at university hospital clinic: odds ratio =0.18) injecting insulin several times a day (number of injections, odds ratio =0.31) and more frequently attending the clinic (≥ 12 times per year, odds ratio =0.23) were at substantially lower risk of death. The results begin to profile the patients with the highest risk of dying who could be identified earlier and undergo intervention treatment.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL:
