Background: High glucose level can cause many serious complications, especially for type 2 diabetic patients. Poorly blood glucose control in type 2 diabetic patients usually induces serious complications. Objective: (1) To evaluate blood glucose control state and (2) To describe affected factors to blood glucose control in type 2 diabetic patients. Subjects and method: We carried out a survey on blood glucose control in 104 type 2 diabetic patients (based on HbA1c results), admitted to Dept of Endocrinology, Bach Mai Hospital from December 2005 to April 2006. 73.1 % of patients is female, average age is 63.4 years old, 57.7% has hypertension, and 62.5% has diabetes for \ufffd?5 years. Results:Blood glucose is poorly controlled in 80.8% (HbA1C > 7.5%), and good controlled in only 12.5% patients (HbA1C < 6.5%). Several affected factors are identify, such as patients were not educated and/or do not perform correctly nutritional and exercise therapy (48.1 %); not compliant with drug treatment; or not measure regularly blood glucose; and long duration of diabetes (p < 0.01). Conclusions: (1) Blood glucose in majority of type 2 diabetic patients is poorly controlled. (2) Factors affected are non - compliance with therapy, irregularly blood glucose measurement and long duration of diabetes.

The treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is traditionally focused on glycemic control. In recent years, comprehensive treatment approaches including blood sugar control, blood pressure management, and use of antihyperlipidemic agents (e.g. statins) and aspirin play critical roles in improving the outcomes of T2DM. Some newly developed approaches such as stomach reduction surgery also have been applied.

Exercise training plays a critical role in the prevention and control of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). New guidelines on exercise training for T2DM patients was jointly published by American College of Sports Medicine and American Diabetes Association at the end of 2010. In the Guidelines on Prevention and Treatment of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in China issued by Chinese Diabetes Society, the role of exercise training is also clearly defined. The implementation of guidelines requires individualized exercise training prescription and program. In this article, we review the procedure of individualized aerobic exercise training prescription, resistant exercise, safety issues, and other relevant topics.

The number of diabetic patients visiting stomatology for periodontal disease is increasing, and the symptoms are relatively severe, and often complications increase the complexity of periodontal treatment. This article briefly describes the research progress and clinical manifestations of the epidemiology and related pathological mechanisms of periodontitis with diabetes, focusing on the treatment and providing reference for stomatologists in the clinical diagnosis and treatment of patients with diabetic periodontitis.

As the incidence of diabetes mellitus is rapidly increasing worldwide,that of related complications,such as diabetic kidney disease(DKD),also increases,conferring a heavy economic burden on the patients,families,society,and government.Diabetes mellitus complicated with chronic kidney disease(CKD)includes DKD and the CKD caused by other reasons.Because of the insufficient knowledge about CKD,the assessment of diabetes mellitus complicated with CKD remains to be improved.The therapies for diabetes mellitus complicated with CKD focus on reducing the risk factors.In clinical practice,DKD may not be the CKD caused by diabetes.According to clinical criteria,some non-diabetic kidney disease may be misdiagnosed as DKD and not be treated accurately.This review summarizes the status quo and research progress in the assessment,diagnosis,and treatment of diabetes mellitus complicated with CKD and predicts the directions of future research in this field.
