Early check in high-risk diabetes

To be kind to your body, it is first necessary to understand the body.

If you stick to the annual medical check-up, that's good, but check back those filled with proper names of documents will you be watching? you know how in medical reports, find your health "yellow light"?

Diabetes, yellow light values?

Medical report on "fasting blood glucose" and "2 hours after meal blood glucose is higher than normal standard", but the doctor said that this is not diabetic.

What does this mean Guangdong provincial people's Hospital Endocrinology Department director Yang Hua Chang said that this situation is called "sugar regulation" (IGR). This is an early stage of diabetes.

"Diabetes is a slow process of development, from normal blood glucose values, to the ' sugar regulation ', and then to the average incidence of diabetes, take 10-15 years.

But this time, the positive control plays an important role in space. "Professor Yang Hua said. Currently, academics authoritative view, diabetes is a disease to be lifelong treatment, but in "sugar regulation" phase, through the active intervention, so that the blood sugar back to their normal level is entirely possible. Therefore, "diabetes mellitus reserve force" should be confident that we are busy on preparing actively for.

Confirmation of the development stage of diabetes, is lit Amber Alert.

In accordance with the standards promulgated by the World Health Organization, normal fasting blood glucose should be below 6.1-mol/l, 2 hours after meal blood glucose is below 7.8-mol/l. If the fasting plasma glucose ≥ 7.0-mol/l, 2-hour postprandial blood glucose ≥ 11.1-mol/l, meet diagnostic criteria for diabetes. But between these two phases, namely fasting blood glucose in 6.1-6.9-Moore/l, or 2 hours after meal blood glucose in 7.8-11.0-mol/l, then the "sugar regulation", also known as prediabetic.

It is important to note that even if the medical report, the blood glucose targets are in normal, should pay special attention to the fasting blood glucose value.

In recent years, the United States the research shows that when fasting blood glucose is higher than 5.6-Moore/l, the human body insulin secretion has been affected, the United States to normal fasting plasma glucose standard down to 5.6-mol/l.

China is still one of who's the old standard, but Professor Yang Hua, where public health examination found the fasting blood glucose than 5.6-mol/l, should still be classified as diabetes "high-risk groups", for diabetes screening, prevention and treatment of diabetes mellitus as soon as possible.

Between security and risk

"Since 2000 to date, China has diabetes incidence in the world's first 2 bits.

According to the Shanghai 2003 survey data to account for adult patients with diabetes mellitus 11.4% sugar regulation population accounted for adults 11.7%. But people with diabetes awareness is still far from enough, this is the diabetes in grim conditions in China. "Professor Yang Hua said," if not timely intervention, adjust the way of life, ' sugar regulation ' who will make a 10% rate to type 2 diabetes, and easy to throw and cerebrovascular diseases. Thus the ' sugar regulation ' is often seen as reservists ' Diabetes '. While most type 2 diabetes is the development of postprandial glucose. ”

The study showed that in diabetes "reserve force", postprandial blood glucose is higher than normal 2 hours but normal fasting plasma glucose (IGT) accounted for about 70%, and fasting blood glucose is higher than normal but after 2 hours of normal blood glucose (IFG) accounted for less than 20%, and fasting blood glucose and blood glucose two hours after meal at higher than normal (i.e., IFG + IGT) only about 10%.

Although often appear microvascular complications in diabetic patients, but in the early stages of IGT to diabetes, vascular diseases such as high cholesterol, hypertension, coronary heart disease and other diseases of risk is increased significantly.

In 2005, China 52 big hospital jointly conducted a survey of the "heart" shows that 80% of coronary heart disease in patients with high blood sugar, of which 32% was ill before has proved to have diabetes, 17% for new diabetes, only 20% of the normal blood sugar.

Therefore, the positive intervention "sugar regulation", in addition to being able to prevent diabetes, also can reduce the incidence of vascular disease.

This is a section on security and risk is an important stage in between.
