Sažetak
The study aimed to assess the benefit of regular vs. intermittent reporting of main risk factors for chronic complication in patients with type 2 diabetes (DM) to the Croatian National Diabetes Registry (CroDiab) by general practitioners. Data on age, DM duration, BMI, systolic, diastolic blood pressure (BP), HbA1c, fasting, postprandial glucose (BG), total-, HDL-, LDL-cholesterol and triglycerides from 2006 to 2008 were extracted. Group1 (G1) consisted of patients with intermittent reports (2006 and 2008 ; n=1100) ; Group2 (G2) included patients with regular monitoring of indicators (2006-2008 ; n=333), with at least one report annually. Groups did not significantly differ in baseline parameters except systolic and diastolic BP (G2 lower). During the study, improvements were observed for all parameters in both groups but more pronounced in G2. At the end of investigation G2 had statistically lower systolic and diastolic BP, HbA1c, postprandial BG, total- and LDL- cholesterol level after controlling for age, duration of disease and baseline values. There was no statistically significant difference in BMI, fasting BG, HDL-cholesterol, triglycerides. This study indicates that continuous monitoring of diabetes indicators may be beneficial for improving diabetes care in general practice.
