Clinical Trial Summary
There is a systemic low-grade chronic inflammation in diabetes, and research suggests that
this inflammation plays a vital role in the development of diabetic complications.
Macrovascular complications, which are associated with atherosclerosis, are recognized as a
chronic inflammatory disease. In this study, the aim was to evaluate the potential alteration
in hematologic inflammatory markers among patients with poorly controlled type 2 diabetes
subsequent to the enhancement of diabetes management.
Description:
Patients who were referred to the Diabetes Outpatient Clinics and had HbA1c levels equal to
or greater than 10% were enrolled in this study. Detailed medical histories, comorbidities
and medication usage (including both regular and new prescriptions), adherence to dietary
recommendations, and occurence of recent infections were collected. Additionally, the
patients' biochemical and hematological data were collected. After a three-month period,
follow-up interviews with the same patients were conducted to inquire about any changes in
medication usage, experienced illnesses, and hospital admissions. Based on the changes in
HbA1c levels during this three-month period, the patients were divided into three equal
groups. The baseline and third-month leukocyte counts, neutrophil counts, lymphocyte counts,
and platelet counts for these groups were recorded. Furthermore, the neutrophil/lymphocyte
ratio, lymphocyte/monocyte ratio, platelet/lymphocyte ratio, monocytes/HDL-cholesterol ratio,
and platelets/HDL ratio for each group were analyzed.
