Electrochemical skin conductances values and clinical factors affecting sudomotor dysfunction in patients with prediabetes, type 1 diabetes, and type 2 diabetes: A single center experience.

Background And Aim: Sudomotor dysfunction is linked to small fibers damage. We investigated sudomotor dysfunction in a large group of participants with diabetes, prediabetes, and nondiabetic healthy subjects. This study aimed to complete knowledge on sudomotor dysfunction in this population, especially regarding the threshold values for the electrochemical skin conductance (ESC) and factors affecting it.

Telemedicine as a Motivational Tool to Optimize Metabolic Control in Patients with Diabetes in Turkey: A Prospective, Randomized, Controlled TeleDiab Trial.

Telemedicine is a follow-up system that can improve the quality of management and cost-effectiveness of rapidly increasing diabetes patients. Two hundred adult patients with diabetes were enrolled in this prospective, randomized study. Consecutive patients were divided equally into two groups.

Assessment the effect of diabetes education on self-care behaviors and glycemic control in the Turkey Nursing Diabetes Education Evaluating Project (TURNUDEP): a multi-center study.

Background: Diabetes education in Turkey is provided by diabetes nurse educators in almost all healthcare organizations. However, the education is not standardized in terms of learning content, duration, and methods. This multi-center study was performed to assess the self-care behaviors and glycemic control following education provided to the patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus by diabetes nurse educators.
