Lack of sleep worsens the control of diabetes in adolescents

Teenagers with type 1 diabetes who regulate their dream improve the control of their diabetes, while those who show greater variability in the duration of their rest between working days and on weekends are more prone to a higher HBA1C and pass lessTime in the target range of glucose in blood, according to the results published in the Pediatric Diabetes magazine.

"The dream is a potential risk or protection factor for the results related to diabetes in adolescents with type 1 diabetes," according to Sarah S. Jaser, PHD, associate professor of pediatrics at the Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville, Tennessee."In particular, it was found that greater variability in the duration, or the differences between the night during the week and the duration of the sleep on the weekend, are related to a worse control of blood glucose and self -care."

The study analyzed the data of 65 adolescents with type 1 diabetes and their caregivers, recruited during scheduled clinical quotations.Teenagers and caregivers received training in the use of a clock that measures rest hours.The teenagers used the clock continuously for 7 days, pressing a button to determine the time in bed.The teenagers also completed a sleep diary, registering day behaviors related to rest (use of caffeine, the level of daily activity, electronics in the room) and the night characteristics of the sleep, as well as the specific factors of diabetes thatThey can influence sleep.

The researchers also evaluated the HBA1C levels collected as part of the regular visits to the clinic of and the average daily monitoring of blood glucose obtained by discharge of glucometer readings to measure adhesion.

The researchers identified an association between greater variability and blood glucose control, and between sleep variability and HBA1C.The researchers also observed a relationship between the levels of sleep variability and blood glucose and the percentage of glucose levels within the target range.

"The dream is often addressed in the clinical visits of diabetes, and our results support that health professionals should ask about the duration of nighttime and time and make basic recommendations to achieve a repair dream," Jaser said.
The researchers added that the associations between sleep and glycemic control are bidirectional.With a bad blood glucose control, the probability of nocturnal hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia increases, which in turn can disturb nighttime rest.

And I say, it would not be better to make a bad control of diabetes with hyperglycemia or nocturnal hypoglycemia derives in a lack of sleep and poor quality !!One thing leads to the other.-

"Dream is often addressed in the clinical visits of diabetes, and our results support that health professionals should ask about the duration of nighttime and time and make basic recommendations to achieve a repair dream"B> The majority of "professionals" of diabetes, of type 1 diabetes knows fair and try that the visit is fast because it is a brown, also since type 2 diabetes has had qualified as the most important, most of "the majority of"professionals "specialize in that and since we know very little they have to do.So I'm still a type 1 when you visit an endocrine to adjust your treatment for lack of control finding with 50/50 guidelines same amount of fast distributed in meals, as slow.This is to get to piss and not drop and they will ask you if you sleep well ???.
