A recent study by Tianjin Medical University shows that the incidence and prevalence of tuberculosis in patients with diabetes is three to six times higher than that of the general population. Professor Wang Jianhua, director of the Department of Epidemiology, Tianjin Medical University, recently completed the National Natural Science Foundation of China, the epidemiological study of type 2 diabetes and its common complications in Tianjin, showing that at present, middle-aged and elderly people over 50 years old The proportion of patients with diabetes complicated with tuberculosis is 70.20%, and peaks in the 50-69 age group. Among them, women are the most in 50-59 years old, and men are the most in 60-69 years old. The number of people with diabetes mellitus complicated with tuberculosis in China is 19.3% - 24.1%, which is 3-4 times that of the general population, and there is an increasing trend. How to prevent diabetes and tuberculosis? Zhang Hong, director of the Metabolic Disease Hospital of Tianjin Medical University, said: Poor blood glucose control is a major risk factor for tuberculosis in diabetic patients, and active tuberculosis can aggravate diabetes and induce various complications. In the treatment of diabetes with tuberculosis, you should pay attention to: 1 appropriate diet, slightly increase the intake of protein, fat, carbohydrates and total calories. 2 control blood sugar. (Hypergic control is too prone to hypoglycemia, early treatment of reasonable anti-tuberculosis treatment and hypoglycemic drugs should be extended). 3 Eliminate tension and maintain a good attitude.

After the condition is stable, often go for a walk outdoors, should not be too tired, strictly observe the doctor's advice, control blood sugar, keep the skin clean, prevent infection and prevent complications. ——Midi Medical Network
