दुनिया भर में मधुमेह को लेकर जारी पैरामीटर 6.5 से 7 को बढ़ाकर 7 से 8 करने का सुझाव अमेरिकन कॉलेज आफ फीजीशियन ने दिया है। इसे लेकर एख बहस छिड़ चुकी है कि इससे मधुमेह रोगियों पर क्या अशर होगा और इसके इलाज पर क्या इससे कोई प्रभाव पड़ेगा
A new set of global guidelines on managing diabetes that aim to replace those followed for over three decades, has stirred up a controversy within the medical community.The controversial guidelines relate to relaxing the long-term blood sugar target, hemoglobin A1C (HbA1c), which through a blood test gives an estimate of a person’s blood sugar level average over the past few months. Generally, an HbA1c of 6.5% indicates diabetes. American College of Physicians, an organization of internal medicine physicians, recommended recently in the medical journal Annals of Internal Medicine, that clinicians should aim to achieve an HbA1c level between 7% and 8% in most patients with type 2 diabetes, as against the traditional 6.5 to 7% which has been followed over decades.
