A study on the 55 patients (27 patients with diabetes mellitus and 28 patients with the suspecting of diabetes mellitus) in the hematology and blood transfusion department of friendship hospital was carried out. The patients received the quantitative analysis of HbA1C by Diastat. The relation of HbA1C with glycemia was evaluated. The results were reported that the rate of patients with the high concentration of HbA1C is valuable. There was a direct correlation between HbA1C and glycemia in the most of patients.

A three step cross-sectional analysis was realized on 5,153 above 15-year-old patients (2,311 male and 2,842 female), who enrolled at randomly from 6 districts and towns of Ha Tay province. Conclusion is as follows: Diabetes prevalence 1.490.33% (male 1.64%0.43%; female 1.370.54%). Glucose intolerance disturbance rate was 2.15%. 80.5% of total number of patients was detected by screening survey.

Study on the patients  40 years old with type 2 diabetes were treated at Bac Giang general surgical Hospital from 9/2003-4/2004. The average age within diabetes group (55.457.53) was different from the control group (57.210.47). The average age of infected group in male was 41 years old and 38 in female. The average weight was the highest (63.3%). The WHR pathology rate was 65.8% diabetes patients. 84.8% was infected under 5 years old. The average time of sleepping was lower than the control group. 20.2% diabetes patients had hypertension.

Objective: In this present study, we aim to evaluate the accuracy of the HbA1c relative to fasting plasma glucose (FPG) in the diagnosis of diabetes and pre-diabetes among The Malaysian Cohort (TMC) participants. Methodology: FPG and HbA1c were taken from 40,667 eligible TMC participants that have no previous history of diabetes, aged between 35-70 years and were recruited from 2006 – 2012. Participants were classified as normal, diabetes and pre-diabetes based on the 2006 World Health Organization (WHO) criteria. Statistical analyses were performed using ANOVA and Chi-square test, while Pearson correlation and Cohen’s kappa were used to examine the concordance rate between FPG and HbA1c. Results: The study samples consisted of 16,224 men and 24,443 women. The prevalence of diabetes among the participants was 5.7% and 7.5% according to the FPG and HbA1c level, respectively. Based on FPG, 10.6% of the participants had pre-diabetes but this increased to 14.2% based on HbA1c (r=0.86; P<0.001). HbA1c had a sensitivity of 58.20 (95% CI: 56.43, 59.96) and a specificity of 98.59 (95% CI: 98.46, 98.70). Conclusion A higher prevalence of pre-diabetes and diabetes was observed when using HbA1c as a diagnosis tool, suggesting that it could possibly be more useful for early detection. However, given that HbA1c may also have lower sensitivity and higher false positive rate, several diagnostic criteria should be used to diagnose diabetes accurately.

Study on 120 men with diabetes type 2 were treated at the Central Military Hospital 108. Results: 61% patients were between 50 and 60 years old, the rate of overweight and obesity were relative high (46.6%), more than 40% patients had comorbidity of hypertension, dyslipidemia. Most patients were diagnosed between 2 and 5 years (46.3%). Most common clinical symptoms were excessive thirst (61%), frequent urination (61%), weight loss (57.4%), but 20% patients were asymptomatic. The rate of diabetic encephalopathy were 7.4%, diastolic dysfunction 68,5%, left ventricular hypertrophy 31,5%, proteinuria 51.8%, grade 1 renal insuffiency 5.6%, eye damage 30%.

Sarcopenia is defined as the loss of muscle mass and strength that occurs with aging. Although the etiology, pathogenesis, and diagnosis of sarcopenia are obscure, sarcopenia has been suggested to play a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of frailty and functional impairment in diabetes. The aim of this article was to provide an overview of the pathogenesis, diagnosis, epidemiology, and clinical implications of sarcopenia and the relationship between diabetes and sarcopenia.

Whereas most people with diabetes mellitus have type 1 or type 2 diabetes, there are other inherited forms of diabetes, including single-gene forms of diabetes and rare genetic syndromes. Monogenic forms of pancreatic beta cell dysfunction include maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) and neonatal diabetes, with MODY being the most common form of inherited diabetes. Mitochondrial diabetes and monogenic severe insulin resistance are also inherited forms of diabetes. In addition, more than 100 genetic diseases are known to be associated with diabetes mellitus. Diagnosis of inherited diabetes has important implications for patients, allowing personalized management and screening of their relatives. This review briefly presents genetic diseases associated with diabetes mellitus.

BACKGROUND: This study was aimed to investigate the diagnosis-related characteristics of the microvascular complications among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and to identify the relationship ship between regular check-up and detection of complications of diabetes. METHODS: The study subjects were 63 patients with diabetic microvascular complications. The data were collected with self-administered questionnaire and analyzed with descriptive statistics. RESULTS: The main motive to identify retinopathy was through 'visiting hospital after having symptoms (58.9%)', and not through regular checkup. The most common symptom of retinopathy was dim dye (84.3%) and the mean duration after diabetes mellitus diagnosis was 6.8 years. The main motive to identify renal complications was through 'visiting hospital after having symptoms and checking for other complications (28.0%)'. The most common symptom of renal complications was edema of face and hands (72.0%) and the mean duration following diabetes mellitus diagnosis was 8.4 years. The main motive to identify neuropathy was through 'visiting hospital after having symptoms (34.8%)', and not regular checkup. The most common symptom of neuropathy was tingling sensation of feet (100.0%) and the mean duration following diabetes mellitus diagnosis was 7.4 years. CONCLUSION: Based on the results, we suggest that diabetes complications check-up should be performed simultaneously to make the diagnosis of diabetes mellitus, and that the health care providers could provide them with more opportunities to have such check-ups with standardized complications care guidelines.
