I will send you a guide for scientific prevention and treatment of diabetes.

There are many patients with prediabetes, which leads to the development of diabetes, and even causes complications such as nephropathy, cerebral infarction, diabetic foot and so on. Some pre-diabetic patients do not have any symptoms in the early stage, how to treat diabetic patients scientifically? Diabetes is a metabolic disease caused by a variety of causes, characterized by chronic hyperglycemia, accompanied by insufficient insulin secretion, deficiency of insulin action and other reasons, such as sugar, fat and protein metabolism disorder. Some atypical symptoms of pre-diabetic patients are easy to be ignored, such as hypoglycemia symptoms such as palpitations, sweating and hunger before meals. Prediabetic patients should control their weight and, if necessary, conduct oral glucose tolerance tests to determine the diagnosis of diabetes.

Xinhua News Agency, Changsha, 14 Nov (Reporter Shuai Cai Yao Yu) 14 November this year is the United Nations Diabetes Day. Experts point out that there are many patients with prediabetes, but they do not pay enough attention to it, which leads to the development of diabetes and even complications such as kidney disease, cerebral infarction, diabetic foot and so on. Some patients with pre-diabetes do not have any symptoms in the early stage and are in the incubation period, how to prevent and cure them at this time? How to treat diabetes scientifically? The reporter interviewed multi-disciplinary experts to learn about it together.

Shao Fengo, director of the Endocrinology Department of Changsha Central Hospital, said that diabetes is a metabolic disease caused by a variety of causes, characterized by chronic elevated blood sugar, accompanied by insufficient insulin secretion, insulin deficiency, and other reasons, such as carbohydrate, fat, and protein metabolism disorders. The typical manifestation of diabetes is "three more and one less": polyuria, excessive drinking, overeating and weight loss.

Shao Fengo said that some atypical symptoms of pre-diabetic patients are easy to be ignored, such as hypoglycemia symptoms such as flutter, sweating, hunger, and so on, before meals; recurrent infections, wounds that do not heal for a long time; patients with unexplained weight loss, often feel tired; dry skin, itching, blurred vision.

For patients who have been diagnosed with diabetes, how to treat it scientifically? Professor Liu Youshuo, director of the Department of Geriatric Endocrinology at Xiangya second Hospital of Central South University, suggested that the treatment of diabetes includes diet control, moderate exercise, self-blood glucose monitoring, health education and drug treatment. Among them, diet control is the basis of diabetes treatment, patients should develop their own daily total calories and scientific diet, regular blood glucose monitoring, effectively avoid the occurrence of severe hypoglycemia.

Hu Zhongdong, a doctor at the Health Management Center of Changsha third Hospital, suggested that diabetic patients should take hypoglycemic drugs under the comprehensive evaluation and guidance of specialists, set blood sugar control targets, and regularly review to adjust the treatment plan.

"what needs to be vigilant is that more and more young people are suffering from diabetes." Hu Zhongdong suggested that in order to prevent diabetes, teenagers should reduce the intake of high-fat, high-calorie and high-sugar diet, develop good living habits, stay up late as little as possible, ensure adequate exercise, effectively control weight, and avoid obesity.

"Diabetes patients must scientifically control their condition and avoid serious complications." Li Huijing, a nephrologist at Hunan Aerospace Hospital, said that long-term hyperglycemia can lead to a series of chronic complications, including diabetic nephropathy, diabetic retinopathy, diabetic peripheral neuropathy, diabetic foot and other serious complications. In particular, it is necessary to be vigilant that patients with long-term hyperglycemia are prone to diabetic nephropathy, and in severe cases, renal failure and uremia may occur, requiring dialysis to maintain.

Li Huijing reminded that when diabetic patients have more urine foam and lower limb edema, they should hurry to the hospital to check urinary protein and renal function. Early diabetic nephropathy will not show any symptoms. It is recommended that diabetic patients should do urine protein testing every six months to a year, early detection, early intervention.
