Exploring the significance of phase angle in diabetes management: a narrative review.
Purpose: The phase angle is a mathematical concept representing the time relationship between two periodic waveforms, and has gained some importance for its potential clinical applications. The purpose of this review was to investigate the role of phase angle in diabetes mellitus.Studies have investigated the relationship between the phase angle and glycemic control, insulin resistance, and diabetes-related complications. Phase angle has demonstrated its potential as a prognostic marker for diabetic complications, enabling early identification and intervention. It might be beneficial for evaluating disease severity, monitoring treatment response, and predicting long-term results in diabetics.
Results and conclusion: Although the phase angle offers significant advantages, its clinical use in managing diabetes is still in its early stages, and there are certain issues that need to be resolved. Standardization of measurement techniques and interpretation criteria is essential to ensure consistency and comparability across studies and clinical settings. Investigating the role of phase angle in the treatment of diabetes provides significant knowledge about its potential as a non-invasive and informative parameter. Identifying the importance of phase angle in diabetes might help to improve risk stratification, treatment strategies, and patient outcomes. Additional research is required to determine its therapeutic value and discover the mechanisms underlying its association with diabetes and its complications.
期刊介绍:
Diabetology International, the official journal of the Japan Diabetes Society, publishes original research articles about experimental research and clinical studies in diabetes and related areas. The journal also presents editorials, reviews, commentaries, reports of expert committees, and case reports on any aspect of diabetes. Diabetology International welcomes submissions from researchers, clinicians, and health professionals throughout the world who are interested in research, treatment, and care of patients with diabetes. All manuscripts are peer-reviewed to assure that high-quality information in the field of diabetes is made available to readers. Manuscripts are reviewed with due respect for the author''s confidentiality. At the same time, reviewers also have rights to confidentiality, which are respected by the editors. The journal follows a single-blind review procedure, where the reviewers are aware of the names and affiliations of the authors, but the reviewer reports provided to authors are anonymous. Single-blind peer review is the traditional model of peer review that many reviewers are comfortable with, and it facilitates a dispassionate critique of a manuscript.
