In Madras city (India) 10,513 school students between 3 and 20 yr of age were investigated for glycosuria and its causes. While no previously known cases of diabetes mellitus of any type were encountered, four students (0.038%) in the survey population were found to have glycosuria. One (0.009%) had renal glycosuria, two (0.019%) were possibly NIDDY (MODY) and one (0.009%) had transient glycosuria while receiving anti-tuberculous chemotherapy. It is therefore concluded that neither diabetes mellitus nor glycosuria of non-diabetic causes is a crucial health problem in Indian children and adolescents. While the reasons for this are not known, further research in this field could be of global interest.
在印度马德拉斯市,对10513名3至20岁的在校学生进行了糖尿及其病因调查。虽然未发现任何先前已知的任何类型糖尿病病例,但在调查人群中发现4名学生(0.038%)患有糖尿。其中1名(0.009%)患有肾性糖尿,2名(0.019%)可能是非胰岛素依赖型糖尿病(青少年发病型糖尿病),1名(0.009%)在接受抗结核化疗时出现短暂性糖尿。因此得出结论,糖尿病和非糖尿病病因导致的糖尿在印度儿童和青少年中都不是关键的健康问题。虽然原因不明,但该领域的进一步研究可能具有全球意义。
