The application tracks almost all aspects of the diabetes treatment and provides detailed reports, charts, and statistics to share via email with the supervising physician. It provides various tools to the diabetics, so they can find the trends in blood glucose levels and allows users to calculate normal and prolonged insulin boluses using its highly effective, top-notch bolus calculator.

“Diabetes:M” can analyze the values from the imported data from various glucometers and insulin pumps via the exported files from their respective diabetes management software systems.

Credentialled Diabetes Educator Louise Brown goes through all the numbers and levels that people living with diabetes need to know: including HbA1c, blood glucose levels (BGLs), cholesterol levels, blood pressure levels (HDL),

Individual levels can vary from person to person. We encourage you to check with your GP or health professional if you have any concerns.

Health officials urge us to ‘know our numbers’ in particular when it comes to indicators of heart disease. But many doctors find people are clueless when it comes to numbers related to diabetes.

“We need to know our HDL, LDL and our cholesterol but you need to know your hemoglobin A1c,” says Dr. Yorke.

Dr. Victoria Yorke is a primary care physician with Lee Memorial Health System. Blood sugar is a good start, but she advises her patients to get a fuller picture.

“I tell them they need a test called a hemoglobin A1c. And that tells you not just what your sugar is that day, but what it’s been for the last three months,” says Dr. Yorke.

The A1c measures your glucose over time. The lifespan of a red blood cell is about 120 days. By dissecting the sugar attached to it, doctors get an average read on your blood sugar. Used for diabetes management, the American Diabetes Association recommends it as a diagnostic tool because it looks beyond blood sugar fluctuations.

“You can have a normal fasting sugar, meaning under 100 and your hemoglobin A1c is elevated, between 5.7 and 6.4 you’re considered pre-diabetic; and you should know that number,” says Dr. Yorke.

It’s estimated 86-million Americans are pre-diabetic. Getting a real read on their risk may provide a good opportunity to better their overall health.

“What is the number one killer in this country? Vascular disease. One of the biggest culprits for vascular disease is long-term diabetes. It’s not having high sugar just once- it’s over time,” says Dr. Yorke.

Making it pay to know your numbers.

Type 2 diabetes, formerly called adult-onset diabetes, is the most common type of the disease, affecting 95 percent of people with diabetes. Type 2 diabetes affects people at any age, even during childhood. However, this type of diabetes develops most often in middle-aged and older people, and those who are overweight and inactive.

Columbia University researchers have developed a personalized algorithm that predicts the impact of particular foods on an individual’s blood sugar levels. The algorithm has been integrated into an app, Glucoracle, that will allow individuals with type 2 diabetes to keep a tighter rein on their glucose levels—the key to preventing or controlling the major complications of a disease that affects 8 percent of Americans.

Type 2 diabetes can be a potentially deadly disease. Exercise and eating right can lower risk for stroke and death in patients who are overweight with diabetes. But what about when diet and exercise don’t work? Cleveland Clinic Bariatric Surgery study is for patients who need additional help. The bariatric surgery procedure reduces the size of the stomach and may help reduce or even act as a diabetes treamtent without the use of medicine.

Remission in type 2 diabetes is a relatively new concept that has gained exposure and traction in recent years, particularly with the advent of bariatric surgery. Now, there is emerging evidence that individuals may achieve type 2 diabetes remission without the aid of weight loss surgery.

David Rometo, MD, of the Center for Diabetes and Endocrinology at UPMC, discusses the concept of diabetes remission, and how early insulin, lifestyle modifications, and other considerations can be beneficial in helping patients achieve this goal.
