This paper discusses the adverse effect of statins on the HbA levels of diabetic patients. Studies have shown that statins may slightly worsen the HbA level. The effects vary depending on the type of statins, the dosage and the duration of therapy. However, it has been confirmed that statin use has benefits that outweigh its harms. Therefore, a diabetic patient should be given advice on the need for appropriate lifestyle changes and the importance of continuing the statins.
本文讨论了他汀类药物对糖尿病患者糖化血红蛋白(HbA)水平的不良影响。研究表明,他汀类药物可能会使糖化血红蛋白水平略有恶化。其影响因他汀类药物的类型、剂量和治疗持续时间而异。然而,已证实使用他汀类药物的益处大于危害。因此,应向糖尿病患者提供有关适当改变生活方式的必要性以及继续服用他汀类药物的重要性的建议。
