We aimed to estimate the threshold level of glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) for the fasting plasma glucose of 100 and 126 mg/dL in the Korean adult population, using the 2011 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. A total of 4,481 participants over 19 years of age without diabetic medications and conditions to influence the interpretation of HbA1c levels, such as anemia, renal ...

Aim: The aim of this study was to determine the effects aerobic and strengthening exercise combination on glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), muscle strength, balance, sleep quality in individuals diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). Material Methods: Fifty aged between 30 65 years DM were included study. Anthropometric measurements, HbA1c, quadriceps hamstring evaluated. Aerobic exercise...

The risk of development and progression of chronic complications of diabetes is closely related to the degree of glycemic control as measured by glycosylated hemoglobin level. Glycosylation of tissue proteins occur when blood glucose level remain elevated for a prolonged duration. Due to this, there occur irreversible changes in the chemical structure of tissue proteins. Connective tissues in s...

To compare the therapeutic effects of different regimens in Chinese obese type 2 diabetic mellitus (T2DM) patients. From October 2013 to July 2014, a total of 166 T2DM outpatients who attended the Shanghai Changhai Hospital and the Yijishan Hospital of Wannan Medical College were randomly assigned into an experimental sitagliptin/metformin combined with low caloric diet group (n = 115) and an i...

We evaluated the influence of the levels of glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1C) and fasting plasma glucose on the variation in low density lipoprotein (LDL) peak particle size in 210 subjects who were undergoing an annual check-up. Univariate analysis showed that LDL particle size was significantly and positively correlated with high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels, and was inversely c...

OBJECTIVE We examined the role of parental monitoring (general and diabetes specific) on metabolic control through better adherence and lower externalizing behaviors for adolescents with type 1 diabetes. METHODS Adolescents aged 10-14 (n = 252) completed assessments of general and diabetes-specific mothers' and fathers' monitoring, adherence, and the Youth Self Report (YSR). Glycosylated hemo...

Patients with diabetes have an increased prevalence of lipid abnormality, contributing to their high risk of cardiovascular disease. This study is an attempt to evaluate the diagnostic value of glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) for diabetes in acute myocardial patients and to assess the presence of dyslipidemia in them. 100 blood samples were collected from acute myocardial Infarction patients at...

Objectives: Due to the important influence of glycemic control on oral health, this study aimed compare gingival index and decayed, missing, filled teeth (DMFT) in participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus receiving insulin metformin. Materials Methods: In cross-sectional study, 130 treated metformin were studied two groups based treatment. The information for DMFT indices obtained using exami...

OBJECTIVES A study was made of the effect of nonsurgical periodontal treatment upon blood glucose control in type 2 diabetics with periodontal disease. STUDY DESIGN A pre-post repeated measures analytical design was used, with a PubMed search of the related articles published up until December 2008. RESULTS The improvement in glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) after nonsurgical periodontal tre...
