“…More than 14% of Oman populations with T2DM had diabetic retinopathy, 27% had microalbuminuria and 50% had amputations in Oman compared to 11.6% of Saudis and 6.7% of Indians with retinopathy [8,9]. Among 7442 Type 1 DM and T2DM patients, only 22.8% had good glycemic control influenced by control of blood pressure, blood glucose and body mass index, while 77.2% did not have a good glycemic control [10,11].…”

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to assess the determinants of demographic and clinical factors associated with HbA1C levels among adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in Muscat. Glycosylated Hemoglobin (HbA1C) is used as marker for long term blood glucose control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods:A cross-sectional design was used. Simple random sampling was used to select 300 adults with T2DM in Oman in 2011. Ethical approval and hospital permission was completed from the Institutional Research and Ethics Committee. Informed consent was obtained from the participants. Chi-square and multiple logistic regression models with demographic and clinical characteristics as predictors of glycemic control (HbA1C) were used to analyze the results. Results: Nearly half percentage of the adults with T2DM had better or controlled HbA1C (<7%) while the rest had poor or uncontrolled HbA1C (>7%). Younger ages, females, higher education, non-tobacco users, short duration of diabetes, compliance with OHA and high waist-hip ratio predicted better control of HbA1C. Conclusions:Socio-demographic and clinical factors were consistently associated with glycemic control. Gender, education, perception of prevention of ADL, doctor-patient relationship, compliance with medications, and non-tobacco users were significant predictors of better glycemic controls among adults with T2DM. Relevance to clinical practice. Assessment of determinants of HbA1C may assist in determining individualized goals and strategies, subsequently improve glycemic control and enhance self-care management.

“…Diabetic nephropathy in the Arab Gulf countries was positively related to male gender, body mass index, poor diabetes control and presence of diabetic retinopathy and/or neuropathy [25,26,27,28,29]. Other risk factors include genetic susceptibility which may be an important determining factor of both the incidence and severity of diabetic nephropathy [6,30,31] and it is markedly increased in patients with a diabetic sibling or parent who has diabetic nephropathy [32,33,34].…”

“…Ten years later, a study in Abha City, Saudi Arabia, showed that more than half of the diabetic patients had proteinuria (proteinuria was considered whenever the last and any of the preceding three urine analyses revealed it by the dipstick test provided that the patient was not suffering on the day of the test from fever, urinary tract infections, other renal diseases or congestive heart failure) [27]. Microalbuminuria was found to be 27% in outpatient type 2 DM in Oman [28]. We did not find any available studies on diabetic nephropathy in adults in Bahrain.…”

While the prevalence of diabetes mellitus is increasing worldwide, one third of the diabetic patients will eventually develop chronic kidney disease. The aim of this review is to present the available data on diabetic nephropathy and its complications in the Arab Gulf countries. This will eventually help to raise the awareness of both government and healthcare systems towards the substantial value of prevention, early detection as well as proper management of both diabetes mellitus and chronic kidney disease. This could be achieved by funding large-scale longitudinal studies, improving training programs (both research and clinical) and increasing the role of media in fighting this epidemic.

“…Al-Futaisi et al[1] zeigten, dass der HbA1c-Wert ein signifikanter Prädiktor für die Mikroalbuminurie bei Patienten mit Typ-2-Diabetes ist. Eine HbA1c-Erhöhung um 1% war mit einer Zunahme der Entwicklung einer Mikroalbuminurie um 23% verbunden.…”

Marker und Ursache der diabetischen Nephropathie und vaskulärer Komplikationen LeitthemaVor dem Hintergrund der ständig wachsenden Zahl von Patienten mit Typ-2-Diabetes gewinnen dessen Folgeerkrankungen zunehmend an Bedeutung. Eine die Lebensqualität und -erwartung von Diabetespatienten stark reduzierende, recht häufige Folgeerkrankung ist die diabetische Nephropathie, deren frühestes Zeichen eine beginnende Mikroalbuminurie ist. Sie entwickelt sich im weiteren Verlauf zu einer Makroalbuminurie und schließlich zu einer unselektiven Proteinurie, was durch frühzei-tige Präventions-und Therapiemaß-nahmen zumindest verzögert werden kann.
