High fruit intake has been shown to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease and some forms of cancer; however, the association between fruit intake and glycemic control in diabetes has...
To achieve effective patient behavior change, a technique based on the seven solution-focused approach can be applied in clinical fields. Way of asking for a change, exception questions, scaling questions,...
People with diabetes mellitus develop lower-limb complications such as diabetic neuropathy, peripheral vascular disease, foot ulcers, and lower-leg amputations. Widespread failure to carry out diabetic foot screening can lead to...
Glycemic variability comprises 'glucose variability' and 'hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) variability.' Glucose variability relates to the within-day fluctuation of glucose level and may eventually reflect an increase in HbA1c level. Long-term...
Monoballismus-monochorea is abnormal neurologic sign characterized by continuous, involuntary and irregular movement involving one extremity. Hyperglycemic ballism-chorea is predominantly observed in older type 2 diabetic patients and non-ketotic hyperglycemia, and...
BACKGROUND: We aimed to study the importance of diabetes education by investigating diabetes education rate and the associations between the presence/absence of diabetes education and the clinical outcomes of diabetic...
Chronic hyperglycemia is the main risk factor for the development of diabetes-related complications in diabetes mellitus (DM). Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) is used to estimate the risk of developing diabetic complications,...
Metabolic syndrome is a complex disorder and an emerging clinical challenge. It is induced by the interplay of genetic and environmental factors. Recently, evidence has emerged to suggest that circadian...
Diabetes among young patients in Korea is caused by a complex set of factors. In addition to the typical T1aD and T2D patients, there is a variable incidence of cases...
Blood pressure values are characterized by marked fluctuations occurring not only within a 24-hour period, but also on a day-to-day and even visit-to-visit basis. Such blood pressure fluctuation was once...
Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus L.) is hot topic recently because its tubers have been introduced as a beneficial food for decreasing glucose level. Therefore, this study focuses on providing accurate...
The analysis of heart rate variability (HRV) has recently been established as a non-invasive measurement method for estimation of autonomic nervous system function in the cardiovascular system. HRV reflects the...
