2. 6. Glycaemic Control and Complications in Type 1 Diabetes

   Author : Mats Bojestig; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

   Abstract : There have been substantial changes in the management of diabetes since the 1960' s.We studied all 213 patients in our catchment area in whom Type I diabetes was diagnosed before the age of 15 years between 1961 and 1980, 92% were followed from the onset of diabetes to 1991 or to the time of deathThe cumulative incidence of diabetic nephropathy has decreased substantially in recent decades from 30% to 9% after 25 year's diabetes duration, probably as a result of improved glycaemic control.

4. 7. Long-term glycaemic control and complications in Type 1 diabetes

   Author : Carin E. Kullberg; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

   Abstract : The impact of long-term glycaemic control, assessed by HbA1c measurements for five years or more, on diabetic retinopathy, nephropathy, and impaired vibration perception threshold was investigated in adult patients with Type 1 diabetes mellitus. Type 1 diabetes was defined as onset of diabetes before the age of 31, with insulin therapy introduced within 6 months from onset, and with no other known cause of insulin deficiency. READ MORE

5. 8. Endothelial dysfunction in atherosclerosis and type 2 diabetes : clinical and molecular studies of the role of endothelin and arginase

   Abstract : An increase in the incidence of type 1 diabetes in childhood has been reported in several countries, especially among the youngest children. Although clinically apparent diabetic vascular disease is rare in children and adolescents, 30-40% are at risk of developing nephropathy during their lifetime which may lead to renal failure.
