Sentences with phrase «of microvascular complications»

The Diabetes Control and Complications trial has provided conclusive evidence that strict glycemic control in patients with type 1 diabetes can both delay the onset of microvascular complications and slow the rate of progression of already established complications.

By focusing the analysis on date of diagnosis, this study found blood glucose control had little effect on the rates of microvascular complications, with the exception of PDR in the most recently diagnosed group.

Intensive glycaemic control of young people diagnosed with type 2 diabetes is warranted early to minimise the risk of microvascular complications.»

With regard to microvascular complications, the authors say that «a refocus towards intensive management of hyperglycaemia at diagnosis, particularly in younger people, may be warranted if the long - term risk of microvascular complications is to be minimised.

New research published in Diabetologia (the journal of the European Association for the Study of Diabetes) shows that age (or age at diagnosis) and duration of diabetes disease are linked to the risk of death and marcovascular complications (those in larger blood vessels), whereas only diabetes duration is linked to the risk of microvascular complications (in smaller blood vessels such as those in the eyes).

By contrast, only diabetes duration is independently associated with the risk of microvascular complications, and the effects of diabetes duration are greatest at younger rather than older ages.

This means younger people with diabetes are more at risk of microvascular complications since they are more likely to have diabetes for longer over their lifetimes than those diagnosed at an older age, and should be targeted for more intensive interventions to help control their blood sugar.
