Today, let’s talk about the “magic number” that is closely related to friends with type 2 diabetes. These numbers are like health signal lights, reminding you of the risks in controlling sugar levels at any time. Remembering them is equivalent to taking the initiative in fighting diabetes and its complications. 1. Weight : Weight management is an important part of comprehensive management of diabetes. Controlling weight can improve blood pressure, blood sugar, and blood lipids. Diabetics should keep in mind that the body mass index (BMI) should be less than 24 kg/m2. 2. Blood sugar: Under normal circumstances, the capillary blood sugar (fingertip blood sugar) self-monitored by diabetics is controlled at 4.4-7.0 mmol/L when fasting and within 10 mmol/L when not fasting. 3. Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c): HbA1c is the three-month blood sugar control "report card" of diabetics. Most people should control it below 7 %. 4. Blood pressure : Studies have shown that controlling blood pressure below 130/80 mmHg can significantly reduce the risk of large vessel and microvascular diseases. 5. Blood lipids : Abnormal blood lipids are an important risk factor for diabetic vascular disease. The primary goal of blood lipid management is to control low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol is a secondary goal. Remember the following key numbers for blood lipids: •Total cholesterol: <4.5 mmol/L . •High-density lipoprotein cholesterol: men >1.0 mmol/L , women > 1.3 mmol/L. •Triglycerides < 1.7 mmol/L . • LDL cholesterol: - No atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease < 2.6 mmol/L , - Combined with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease: < 1.8 mmol/L (should be reduced to 1.4 if possible). Doctor's reminder: Individual situations vary, so the specific target value should be determined in consultation with the attending physician! Failure to meet the target does not mean treatment failure. Any improvement in the indicators is beneficial to diabetics! Remember that numbers are not the goal, the key is to develop scientific management habits! |
