Estimating the Risk of Lower Extremity Complications in Adults Newly Diagnosed With Diabetic Polyneuropathy: Retrospective Cohort Study

Estimating the Risk of Lower Extremity Complications in Adults Newly Diagnosed With Diabetic Polyneuropathy: Retrospective Cohort Study

Up to 50% of the more than 38 million Americans who have diabetes experience some peripheral nerve damage, known as diabetic polyneuropathy [1,2]. Distal symmetric polyneuropathy, the most common type of diabetic polyneuropathy, is frequently characterized as pain, tingling, and numbness that starts in the extremities. Motor and autonomic involvement, also seen in those with diabetic polyneuropathy, can lead to foot deformity.

Remote Foot Temperature Monitoring Among Veterans: Large Observational Study of Noncompliance and Its Correlates

Remote Foot Temperature Monitoring Among Veterans: Large Observational Study of Noncompliance and Its Correlates

Diabetic foot ulcers are common, debilitating, and costly diabetes complications. Over 10 percent of US adults [1] and nearly a quarter of veterans enrolled in Veterans Health Administration (VHA) have diabetes [2]. In patients with diabetes, lifetime risk of ulceration is estimated to be 14% [3]. Ulcerations negatively impact mobility, mental health, and quality of life, and have high recurrence rates. Nearly two-thirds of patients have a recurrence within 5 years of ulcer healing [4].

Addressing Information Biases Within Electronic Health Record Data to Improve the Examination of Epidemiologic Associations With Diabetes Prevalence Among Young Adults: Cross-Sectional Study

Addressing Information Biases Within Electronic Health Record Data to Improve the Examination of Epidemiologic Associations With Diabetes Prevalence Among Young Adults: Cross-Sectional Study

Second, “sufficiency” models were estimated among the subset of patients who we hypothesized to have sufficient data, defined as those with at least 1 encounter with an endocrinology review of systems or those who were classified as diabetic through the above definition (n=181,036). Since diabetes is a rare disease within the young adult population, we assumed that the specificity of the classification was near-perfect and all patients who were classified as diabetic had sufficient data [28].

The Development of an Electronic Medical Record System to Improve Quality of Care for Individuals With Type 1 Diabetes in Rwanda: Qualitative Study

The Development of an Electronic Medical Record System to Improve Quality of Care for Individuals With Type 1 Diabetes in Rwanda: Qualitative Study

Diagnostic confirmation is usually based on glycated hemoglobin (Hb A1c) testing, age at diagnosis, response to insulin, presence of diabetic ketoacidosis symptoms, and underweight [20-22]. The RDA has 1 clinic in the capital, Kigali, and works closely with the noncommunicable disease clinics at the district hospitals located throughout the country. Individuals with T1 diabetes living in the Kigali region go directly to the RDA clinic.
