SummaryFifteen haemostasis parameters have been measured in 48 normal persons, 36 diabetics without and 44 with complications and 27 with peripheral arterial disease. Since the patients groups are older than normals, part of the differences are due to age. However, the differences are significant between normals and patients. They become highly significant for the diabetics with complications and nephropathy (Table 7). In diabetics without complications factor VIII functions, fibrinogen and thrombin time are related to age whereas there is a negative correlation for the fibrinolytic activity and antithrombin III. The diabetic complications shade off the correlations, which subsist only for VIIIR: CoF, VIIIR: Ag, ATIII and lysis before stasis. With Hbalc as dependent variable VIIIR:CoF is the only significant predictor variable in diabetics (Table 9).

Aims: Increased level of glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) is associated with an increased prevalence of peripheral arterial disease (PAD). This study aimed to assess the relationship between the anatomical distribution of symptomatic PAD lesions in patients with type 2 diabetes and HbA1c levels at the time of PAD diagnosis. Patients and methods: A retrospective study was conducted at King Abdullah University Hospital during the period August 2011 to December 2015. Consecutive patients with type 2 diabetes presented with symptomatic PAD confirmed by computed tomography-angiography (CTA) were included in this study. CTA images were reviewed. Relevant information including demographic data, PAD symptoms, comorbidities, HbA1c level, lipid profile, C-reactive protein and the mean platelets volume were retrieved from medical records. Results: A total of 332 patients with type 2 diabetes (255 males and 77 females) were included in this study. The mean HbA1c at the time of PAD diagnosis was 8.68% (±2.06%). The prevalence of hemodynamic relevant atherosclerotic lesions of the superficial femoral artery, popliteal artery, leg vessels, femoro-popliteal, and crural segments was significantly higher in patients with HbA1c >7.5% compared with patients with HbA1c ⩽7.5%. Conclusion: The anatomical distribution of symptomatic PAD in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus differed significantly according to HbA1c level at the time of PAD diagnosis.

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) merupakan penyakit yang tidak dapat disembuhkan, namun dapat dikendalikan. Prevalensi penderita DM di Indonesia 6.9% dan di Jawa Barat sekitar 29,4% dari jumlah penduduknya. Sebagai mother of desease, penyakit DM memiliki komplikasi yang serius seperti retinopati diabetik, neuropati, amputasi, penyakit jantung, gagal jantung, stroke dan peripheral arterial disease. Kondisi tersebut menunjukkan perlunya keseriusan dalam penanganan penyakit DM. Diperlukan dukungan dari kader (sebagai bagian dari support group) bagi peserta prolanis DM. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui implementasi metoda support group dalam meningkatkan persepsi pasien tentang perawatan DM di Kota Bandung. Penelitian ini termasuk jenis penelitian kuantitatif dengan menggunakan rancangan quasi experiment dengan pretest and post test non equivalent control group. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan peningkatan persepsi pasien prolanis sebesar 3,08 dan peningkatannya dinyatakan sangat bermakna (p<0,01).  Edukasi yang dilakukan kader (support group) berpengaruh terhadap peningkatan persepsi pasien DM. Metode support group dengan memberdayakan kader dalam memberikan edukasi sangat bermanfaat dan dapat dijadikan kebijakan di pelayanan kesehatan masyarakat.
