Not Applicable
- Conditions
- Diabetes Mellitus

- Lead Sponsor
- Kumamoto University, Department of Metabolic Medicine, Faculty of Life Sciences.
- Brief Summary
A total of 557 patients were enrolled and data were collected from 13 months before to 13 months after the earthquakes. In patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) or specific types of diabetes due to other causes, glycemic control was not altered during the observational period. This glycemic stability in T1D may result from self-management of insulin doses (increase in 7% and decrease in 20% of patients). In patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D), HbA1c was decreased by 0.11% (from 7.33% to 7.22%) at 1-2 months after the earthquakes compared to that before the earthquakes, and increased thereafter.
