Reproducibility of diabetes diagnosis in women reported.
2004 JUN 3 - (NewsRx.com & NewsRx.net) -- Investigators report the reproducibility of a diabetes diagnosis in women using the World Health Organization (WHO) 1999 criteria.
"Reproducibility of diabetes mellitus (DM) diagnosis has been recognized as non-optimal and a few studies have analyzed its reproducibility using new diagnostic criteria. Our aim was to evaluate the reproducibility of WHO 1999 criteria for DM diagnosis in women. A total of 696 Caucasian women with previous gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) underwent an OGTT at a median of 6.2 years (interquartile range, 0.5-7.3) after delivery," scientists in Spain report.
"When OGTT was diagnostic of DM, a second test was scheduled and performed after a median of three months (interquartile range, 1.6-10.6)," said Merce Albareda and colleagues at the Autonomous University of Barcelona. "At the second test, 35 women were diagnosed with DM (12 by fasting plasma glucose (FPG) alone, 10 by isolated post-challenge hyperglycemia (IPH), 10 by fasting and two-hour plasma glucose, 3 by symptoms of hyperglycemia plus measurement of plasma glucose).
"DM was confirmed in 56.3% of women diagnosed without symptoms," reported the researchers. "In this subgroup, reproducibility ...
