A German research study conducted at the German Diabetes Research Center, published in a journal, revealed Nature Medicine There are 6 different subtypes of prediabetes.People with prediabetes have higher than normal blood sugar levels, and sometimes but do not always develop type 2 diabetes, as the results of this study will enable clinicians to better manage this risk. According to a newspaper report sciencealert Scientific.
Types of diabetes–
In a 25-year analysis and study of data on 899 individuals, researchers were able to classify these six subspecies through a series of common biomarkers, including glucose levels, liver lipids, body fat distribution, blood lipid levels, and genetic risks..
“For people with prediabetes, it has not been possible until now to predict whether they will develop diabetes and are at risk of serious complications such as kidney failure, or whether they have a form,” said medical researcher Hans Ulrich Harring of the German Center for Diabetes Research. It is harmless with slightly higher blood glucose levels but without major risks. “
He added that groups 1, 2, and 4 with a low risk of diabetes include participants who are not overweight, or who are overweight but have other diseases, groups 3, 5 and 6 are associated with an increased risk of diabetes and secondary diseases..
Group 3 produces very little insulin naturally, in addition to showing other biomarkers such as thickening of the upper inner layer in the arteries. Group 5 includes people who are more resistant to the effects of insulin and also with higher amounts of liver fat..
Those in Group 6 trials have higher levels of certain types of body fat (while these individuals have a lower risk of developing diabetes compared to groups 3 and 5, there is a higher risk of death and a greater chance of developing impaired kidney function in these individuals). the group.
“There are also different types of diseases in the initial stage of diabetes, which differ in blood glucose levels, insulin action and insulin secretion, body fat distribution, liver fat and genetic risks,” said Robert Wagner, a diabetes specialist..” .
The study confirmed that with the rise in the number of people with diabetes, the number of people with type 2 diabetes worldwide could reach 700 million by 2045, the condition that already causes millions of deaths annually.
