AimTo ascertain whether patients with type 2 diabetes are screened for diabetic foot, and to analyze the factors related to patients and centers associated to performance of such screening.Material and methodsA multicenter, epidemiological, cross-sectional study was conducted. The clinical records of 443 patients with type 2 diabetes monitored at Primary Care for at least 12 months were reviewed. Demographic and healthcare variables and characteristics of the primary care center were recorded.ResultsIn the previous year, 51.2% of patients had been trained on foot self-care, 56.4% had undergone foot inspection, 39.5% had been examined with a monofilament, and palpation of peripheral pulses and measurement of the ankle-brachial index were performed in 45.8 and 10.1% of patients, respectively. Diabetic foot screening (inspection, monofilament testing, and palpation of peripheral pulses) was performed in 37% of study patients. Ulcer risk stratification was done in 12.4% of patients. A significant association was found between diabetic foot screening and presence of foot deformities (P < .001), history of neuropathy (P = .005), and history of peripheral artery disease (P < .05). Screening was also associated to some characteristics of the center, such as reception of information about goal achievement (P < .001) and economic incentives for goal attainment (P < .001).ConclusionsCompliance with diabetic foot screening and ulcer risk stratification in patients with type 2 diabetes in Primary Care was poor. 相似文献

Objectivesto study the balance and the gait by the Performance Oriented Mobility Assessment (POMA) in the population of people ≥ 65 years in function of age, gender; relation with the capacity to develop the activities of daily living, physical exercise, perception of health and previous falls.Material and methodsWe study a cohort of 443 people, 262 women and 181 men, representative of the population ≥ 65 years, resident in the community and able to walk from the city of Mataró. The evaluation was made with the 22 items POMA. Basic and instrumental activities of the daily life (Katz Index and Lawton), physical activity, health perception (Iowa test) were also assessed.Results29.3% of subjects did not present abnormalities in any of the items, 22.6% presented one abnormality, 12.4% two, and 35.7% three or more. 35.9% and 50.2 of subjects did not present abnormalities in the static and dynamic components respectively. Women had greater number of abnormalities than men (42.0% vs 20.6%) for the global and also for each of the two components (static and dynamic) (p < 0.0001). The number of abnormalities increased significantly with age, specially on those 75 years and older (p < 0.0001). A greater number of errors was correlated with less independence on the basic and instrumental activities of daily living, with less physical activity, health perception and with antecedents of previous falls. 相似文献

Background and objectiveThe aim of this study was to assess the utility of arterial calcium stimulation with hepatic venous sampling (ASVS) in the localization of tumors in patients with endogenous hyperinsulinism not detected with other methods.Patients and methodsWe performed a retrospective study of 26 patients admitted to our hospital for hypoglycemia who underwent ASVS because the source of hyperinsulinism was not clearly identified by other imaging techniques. The histopathological result in patients who underwent a surgical procedure was considered the reference for statistical study of the accuracy of this technique. Statistical analysis was performed by comparing proportions with the chi-squared test with Yates’ correction for contingency tables, and Cohen′s kappa coefficient as a measure of interrater agreement between two observations.ResultsSurgery was performed in 17 patients, 13 with positive ASVS and the remaining four with negative results. An insulinoma was removed in 12 patients, and 10 of these were detected in the ASVS. A total of 76.9 % of positive ASVS tests corresponded to a histological diagnosis of insulinoma, and 83% of these insulinomas were positive in ASVS. This association was statistically significant (chi cuadrado = 7.340; p = 0.012). Two of three patients with nesidioblastosis had a positive response in the ASVS. A good and statistically significant agreement was obtained between histopathologic diagnosis and ASVS results (κ=0.556, p = 0.007).ConclusionsASVS is a useful procedure in the localization diagnosis of endogenous hyperinsulinism not detected by other imaging tests. This technique allows tumors in the pancreatic gland to be identified and may be useful in the choice of the surgical technique to be used. 相似文献

BackgroundAn epidemiologic survey showed in 1992 iodine deficiency and endemic goiter in schoolchildren from the Basque Country.Objectives1) To determine the percentage of homes of schoolchildren where iodized salt (IS) is used; 2) to assess iodine nutrition status in schoolchildren and to compare the data collected to those available from previous epidemiological studies.Design and MethodsA cross-sectional study in 720 randomly selected schoolchildren. Urinary iodine concentration (UIC) was measured using high-performance liquid chromatography(HPLC) with electrochemical detection.ResultsIS was used at 53.0% of the homes (95% confidence interval [CI], 49.2-56.7%). Median UIC has increased by 226%, from 65 μg/L in 1992 to 147 μg/L (percentile [P], P25, 99 μg/L; P75, 233 μg/L) today. Both schoolchildren consuming IS and those using unfortified salt at their homes had UICs corresponding to adequate iodine intakes (165 and 132 μg/L respectively). UICs experienced great seasonal fluctuations, being 55% higher during the November-February period than in June-September period (191 μg/L vs 123 μg/L; p < 0.001)ConclusionsSchoolchildren from the Basque Country have normalized their iodine nutrition status. The strong seasonal pattern of UICs suggests that consumption of milk and iodine-rich dairy products coming from cows feed iodized fodder is one of the most significant factors involved in the increase in iodine intake since 1992. 相似文献

Introduction
The limitation of therapeutic effort (LTE) depends on medical, ethical and individual factors. We describe the characteristics of patients with bacteremia in which it was decided to limit the therapeutic effort.Method
Prospective study of bacteremia in a community hospital in 2011. We collected information regarding patient variable (age, sex, Barthel index, comorbidities, Charlson Index and exogenous factors) as well as regarding the infectious episode (etiology, focus, place of adquisition, clinical expressivity, LTE and hospital mortality). The group in which LTE was performed was compared to the one that was not.Results
We collected 233 episodes of bacteremia in 227 patients. We performed LTE in 19 patients (8.2%). Patients with LTE were older (80.7 vs. 72.6 years, p=.014), had more comorbidity (Charlson index 4.6 vs. 2.1, p<.001 and most frequently were severe dependents (57.9% vs. 18.8%, p<.001). We found no association with sex, place of adquisition or clinical expressivity. The commonest clinical focus in patients with LTE was the urinary (42.1%) and there was a predominance of gram positive bacteria (63.2%). The empirical treatment was started early in 73.7% of cases. All patients except one died.Conclusion
LTE is considered in an important number of patients with bacteremia. They usually are older, with more comorbidity and functional dependence, bad functional basal status and important comorbidity. Knowing their differential characteristics allow us to understand this decision. 相似文献8.
Aimsto compare posturographic test with One-Leg Balance test in the elderly.Methodswe studied 59 healthy men and women living in the community who were at least 65 years of age. All of them were evaluated with One–Leg Balance (defined as the ability to stand on one leg unsupported for 5 seconds) and Modifies Clinical Test for the Sensory Interaction on Balance by the Balance Master (Neurocom®). We distributed the patients in two groups. Group A included those who couldn’t perform one-leg balance and group B those who could perform it.Results62.6% of subjects could perform one-leg balance and 37.2% could not perform it. On a firm surface with opened eyes, the A group made a variation of 0.4 deg/s (0.28-0.6) in the gravity center position and the B group 0,2 deg/s (0.1-0.3) (p = 0.010). On a firm surface with closed eyes, the A group made a variation of 0.5 deg/s (0.3-0.8) and the B group 0.3 deg/s (0.1- 0.4) (p = 0.002). On a foam surface with open eyes, the A group made a variation of their gravity center position of 1.10 deg/s (0.90-1.60) and the B group 0.9 deg/s (0.73-1.30) (p = 0.045). On a foam surface with closed eyes the A group made a variation of their gravity center position of 6 deg/s (4-6) and the B group 2.3 deg/s (1.63-3.08) (p < 0.001).Conclusionselderly patients who can perform one-leg balance, make less variations of their gravity centre. The results are the same when visual and propioceptive afferences are suppressed. 相似文献

AimTo assess the effect of moderate regular aerobic physical activity not associated to body weight changes on insulin resistance and the associated metabolic changes in general population.Sujects and methodsA cross-sectional, observational study in an adult population (n=101 sujects aged 30-70 years) with no personal history of disease and with stable weight in the three months prior to the study. The group with regular exercise performed 30-60 minutes of moderate regular physical exercise 5 days per week (7.5-15 hours MET per week), while a control group performed no regular physical excersice and had a sedentary lifestyle. Subjects were age- and sex-matched. Lipids, lipoproteins, and HOMA index were measured using standard methods.ResultsThe group with regular physical activity consisted of 48 subjects (21 male/27 female), while the group with no regular physical activity included 53 subjects (31 male/22 female). No significant differences were found between the groups in age, sex, BMI, waist circunference, and blood presure. Significant differences were found between the groups in fasting serum triglyceride, HDL-C, and apoB levels. Fasting plasma insulin levels (12.1 ± 4.13 vs 14.9 ± 4.8 mU/L, P= .004) and HOMA index (2.8 ± 1.1 vs 3.5±4.1, P= .001) were significantly lower in the group with regular physical activity as compared to the sedentary group. Prevalence rates of metabolic syndrome were 20.7% and 45.8% (P=.01) in the regular physical activity and sedentary groups respectively.ConclusionModerate regular physical activity is associated to higher insulin sensitivity, an improved lipid profile, and a decrease in components of metabolic syndrome with no change in weight or BMI. 相似文献

ObjectiveTo evaluate the extent to which metabolic targets in type 2 diabetes (DM-2) are achieved in the Endocrinology and Clinical Nutrition Unit of the Hospital Puerta del Mar in Cadiz (Spain) from 2005 to 2008.MethodThe database included in the computer application HP-Doctor used for all patients attended in our unit (admissions, consultations and peripheral centers) was analyzed. All patients with a principal or secondary diagnosis of DM-2 were included. Clinical characteristics, chronic complications, drug treatment and the percentage of patients who achieved annual mean targets of glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDLc) were analyzed.ResultsFrom 2005 to 2008, the number of DM-2 patients with computerized records increased by 108.7%. In 2008, 1,177 patients were evaluated. A total of 10.8% were active smokers, 53% had hypertension, and 51.2% and 12.6% presented with retinopathy and cardiovascular disease, respectively. During the study period, the percentage of patients with a mean HbA1c <7% was similar (2005: 31.7% 2008: 30.4%), those with LDLc <100 mg/dl increased from 19.2% to 25.6% and only 9.2% of patients achieved both targets, HbA1c <7% and LDLc <100 mg/dl.ConclusionsIn 2008, only 30% of DM-2 patients achieved a mean HbA1c < 7% and only 25% had LDLc < 100 mg/dl. Metabolic control in DM-2 patients should be improved. 相似文献

IntroductionIn elderly, impaired kidney function may lead to relevant clinical implications, especially in drug dosage. There is no consensus on the best formula to estimate glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in this context. While the Cockcroft–Gault (CG) equation is the most used one in drug development, the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation is the most employed by clinical laboratories. The objective of this study is to analyze the differences and implications of using one or another equation when adjusting the dose of antibiotics.Material and methodsCross-sectional study performed in patients older than 80 years admitted to an acute geriatric unit for infectious disease. Socio-demographic, functional, clinic, assistance and laboratory variables were gathered, calculating GFR according to CG and CKD-EPI. A concordance study between both equations, bivariate analysis and multiple linear regression were carried out.Results100 patients were recruited, with mean age 88.5 ± 4.2 years, and 54% women. A relative overestimation of 13.63 mL/min was observed in GFR according to CKD-EPI, with a low-moderate concordance between both formulas. Greater need for dose adjustment of antibiotics with GC than with CKD-EPI was detected (38% vs. 23%; P < .001), as well as dosage discrepancies, especially with levofloxacin.ConclusionsBoth equations are not interchangeable in the elderly. When used to adjust antibiotic dose, CKD-EPI may overestimate GFR and may cause an increase in adverse reactions. Further studies should be carried out with the aim of reaching a consensus on the most appropriate equation for the elderly patient. 相似文献
