ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of the humanized care on the blood glucose, blood lipid and diabetic ketoacidosis control of type 1 diabetes patients outside the hospital. Methods Fifty type 1 diabetes patients were enrolled in this study, aged from 18 to 30 years old, outside the hospital. The duration of this study was from Mar 2009 to Jan 2016.The clinical and laboratory data of patients,including HbA1c,LDL-C,HDL-C,TG and diabetic ketoacidosis were collected and analyzed. Results About 60.0% and 80.0% of type 1 diabetes pa-tients achieved the goals of contorlling glycemia (HbA1c < 6.5%) and dyslipidemia (LDL-C < 2.6 mmol/L) respec-tively, after receiving the humanized care outside the hospital, while only 32.0% and 22.0% of type 1 diabetes pa-tients achieved these goals before.Moreover,after receiving the humanized care outside the hospital,only 16.0% of type 1 diabetes patients suffered from diabetic ketoacidosis which was 40.0% before.Conclusions The humanized care outside the hospital can help patients to acheive the goals of contorlling glycemia and dyslipidemia among the type 1 diabetes.Besides,it contributes to reduce the incidence rate of the diabetic ketoacidosis.
ABSTRACT
Objective To ascertain the significance of qualitative and quantitative detections of urine neutrophil gelatinase-associ-ated lipocalin(NGAL)in the early diagnosis of diabetic nephropathy.Methods 74 patients with diabetes mellitus were divided into the normoalbuminuria group[(DN1 ,n =26,urinary albumin excretion rate(UAER)300 mg/24 h)according to the 24 h UAER,and at the same time the control group(n=25)was set up.Both the activity and levels of urine NGAL in the above groups were examined and compared.Results The activity band of urine NGAL in each group were more distinct than that of the control group(P =0.000).The NGAL activity in the macroalbuminuria group was higher than that in the normoalbuminuria group(P 0.05);the quantitative detection demonstrated that differences of the NGAL content existing between the macroalbuminuria group and the other three groups had statistical significance(P =0.000),the urinary NGAL excretion in the macroalbuminuria group was higher than that in the microalbuminuria group,normoalbuminuria group and the control group(P =0.000);No differences were found between the control group and the normoalbuminuria group and between the control group and the microalbuminuria group(P >0.05).Conclu-sion For the patients with diabetic nephropathy,the activity detection of urine NGAL is more sensitive than UAER and the NGAL quantitative detection and could become a new type index in the early diagnosis of diabetic nephropathy.
