Abstract Aims/hypothesis Diabetes is the leading cause of kidney disease worldwide. There is limited information on screening, treatment and control of kidney disease in patients with diabetes in low-to-middle-income countries (LMICs). Methods The International Diabetes Management Practices Study is an ongoing, non-interventional study of clinical profiles and practices among patients receiving outpatient care mainly by internal medicine physicians and endocrinologists in LMICs. We examined screening, prevalence, treatment and control of kidney disease across seven waves (W) of data collection between 2005 and 2017. Results Among 15,079 patients with type 1 and 66,088 patients with type 2 diabetes, screening for kidney disease increased between W2 and W3 followed by a plateau (type 1 diabetes: W2, 73.7%; W3, 84.1%; W7, 83.4%; type 2 diabetes: W2, 65.1%; W3, 82.6%; W7, 86.2%). There were also decreasing proportions of patients with microalbuminuria (type 1 diabetes: W1, 27.1%; W3, 14.7%; W7, 13.8%; type 2 diabetes: W1, 24.5%; W3, 12.6%; W7, 11.9%) and proteinuria (type 1 diabetes: W1, 14.2%; W3, 8.7%; W7, 8.2%; type 2 diabetes: W1, 15.6%; W3, 9.3%; W7, 7.6%). Fewer patients were reported as receiving dialysis for both type 1 diabetes (W2, 1.4%; W7, 0.3%) and type 2 diabetes (W2, 0.9%; W7, 0.2%) over time. While there was no change in mean HbA1c or prevalence of diagnosed hypertension (type 1 diabetes: W1, 22.7%; W7, 19.9%; type 2 diabetes: W1, 60.9%; W7, 66.2%), the use of statins had increased among patients diagnosed with dyslipidaemia (type 1 diabetes: W1, 77.7%; W7, 90.7%; type 2 diabetes: W1, 78.6%; W7, 94.7%). Angiotensin II receptor blockers (type 1 diabetes: W1, 18.0%; W7, 30.6%; type 2 diabetes: W1, 24.2%; W7, 43.6%) were increasingly used over ACE inhibitors after W1 (type 1 diabetes: W1, 65.0%; W7, 55.9%; type 2 diabetes: W1, 55.7%, W7, 41.1%) among patients diagnosed with hypertension. Conclusions/interpretation In LMICs, real-world data suggest improvement in screening and treatment for kidney disease in patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes attending non-nephrology clinics. This was accompanied by decreasing proportions of patients with microalbuminuria and proteinuria, with fewer patients who reported receiving dialysis over a 12-year period. Graphical abstract

In this article Martha Stewart discusses how illness affects diabetes management and outlines the ‘sick-day advice’ that should be shared with people living with type 1 and type 2 diabetes Intercurrent illness can cause glucose levels to rise in people with diabetes mellitus. These illnesses include the common cold, diarrhoea and vomiting, urinary tract infections and COVID-19. If diabetes is not managed well during illness it can escalate and result in more serious conditions, such as diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and hyperosmolar hyperglycaemic state (HHS), which would require emergency hospital admission. This article discusses how illness affects diabetes management and outlines the ‘sick-day advice’ that should be shared with people living with type 1 and type 2 diabetes.

AbstractIntroductionAccording to diabetes care standards nutrition therapy should be an integral part of diabetes management, and all individuals with diabetes should be referred to a registered dietitian for nutrition therapy at—or soon after—diagnosis and for ongoing follow-up. There is limited international data that indicate that a large percentage of people with diabetes have not received structured diabetes education and have not visited a dietitian. The aim of this study was to assess the involvement of dietitians in diabetes care in Greece.Materials and MethodsAll adult diabetic patients admitted to a secondary care general hospital in Greece during 30 consecutive days were included in the study. Patients admitted in the ICU, CICU, day clinics and hemodialysis patients were excluded. Data were obtained by personal interviews using a 40 item questionnaire which included 10 questions regarding number of visits to dietitians for diabetes management, whether patients were referred by their doctors or sought dietary advice by their own, reasons for visiting a dietitian, goal achievement and patient satisfaction.ResultsIn total 124 patients (68 males and 56 females) with diabetes were admitted to the hospital during the study period (4 type 1, 114 type 2 and 6 pregnancy diabetes). Data were obtained from 3 (22.8 ± 6 yrs, 26.1 ± 5.7kg/m2,8.3 ± 5.9 yrs with diabetes),105 (76.6 ± 11.3 yrs, 28.0 ± 5.3 kg/m2, 12.8 ± 9.3 yrs with diabetes), and 5 (32.6 ± 4.4 yrs, 28.5 ± 4.0 kg/m2) patients with type 1, type 2 and pregnancy diabetes respectively. Two out of 3 type 1 diabetes and 1 out of 5 patients with pregnancy diabetes interviewed reported to have been referred to a dietitian by their doctor. Only 5.7% (6 patients) of type 2 diabetes patients reported to have been referred to a dietitian by their doctor and another 5.7% have visited a dietitian on their own initiative. Five out of 6 referrals were at diabetes diagnosis. The number of encounters with a dietitian ranged from 1 to 24 with patients seeking to loose weight having the greater number of encounters. Of type 2 diabetes patients 94.3% did not receive lifestyle advice before commencing diabetes medication whereas 25% did not receive any dietary advice by any health professional even after starting medication.ConclusionsIn our cohort the majority of diabetes patients had not received dietary counseling by a dietitian, whereas about one fourth of type 2 diabetes patients had not received any dietary advice.

Glycemic control represents an integral part of diabetes mellitus (DM) therapy. It is not surprising that diabetes technology is evolving to not only create new routes of insulin administration, but also to improve the measurement of glycemia. A significant number of new glucose monitoring systems have been launched to the market over the past 10 years. Nevertheless, only 30% of patients with type 1 diabetes and very few patients with type 2 diabetes use continuous or flash glucose monitoring. The reason for this is not only the cost and technical difficulties of continuous glucose monitoring, but also its clinical appropriateness. There is indisputable evidence that patients who receive intensified insulin therapy, especially those with type 1 diabetes, need frequent self-monitoring / continuous glucose monitoring. As for patients with type 2 diabetes receiving basal insulin and / or other antihyperglycemic therapy, the data received seem to be contradictory and uncertain. However, most of the recommendations simmer down to the need for self-monitoring of blood glucose levels in patients with type 2 diabetes. The diabetes technology section of the American Diabetes Association guidelines 2021 goes into details about the role of self-monitoring of blood glucose in diabetes management, including the need for continuous patient education on the principles and rules of self-monitoring, interpretation and practical use of the results of self-monitoring, various standards of glucometers, factors affecting the accuracy of the results.
