Abstract
BACKGROUND
The use of fructosamine to assess the glycemic control represents a new step in diagnostics, and it has been accompanied by the active scientific discussion in recent years. That is why the purpose of this work is to study the average level of fructosamine in apparently healthy individuals and individuals with diabetes mellitus (DM), as well as the possibility to use it when evaluating the effectiveness of inpatient treatment of patients with hyperglycemia on the seven to ten days of hospitalization.
METHODS
This research work was carried out in Alma-Ata, Republic of Kazakhstan, based on the endocrinology department in the period from 2020 to 2022. The work consists of a retrospective analysis of previously examined patients and a prospective stage. The statistical evaluation was carried out with the calculation of reliability coefficient, confidence interval, and criteria for testing for normality. The level of fructosamine in healthy individuals in the corresponding region was analyzed in this article for the first time, and the correlation between this indicator and the level of glycated hemoglobin was found.
RESULTS
The effectiveness of treatment of the Type 2 DM (according to the treatment protocol) has also been studied in stationary conditions for the seven to ten days, which makes it possible to judge the effectiveness of the prescribed therapy.
CONCLUSIONS
These results will allow identifying the irrationality of the prescribed therapy at an early stage, which is especially important for the correct management of patients with this pathology, and minimizing the possible complications.
