PurposeThere has been a recent increase in interest in chia seeds as a growing number of people try to observe a healthy lifestyle, particularly healthy eating habits. Given the increasing popularity of chia seeds in Hungary as well, we performed a study to examine what information on chia seeds is available on Hungarian websites.Materials and MethodsWe conducted a systematic, qualitative content analysis to examine the first 200 Hungarian results of a Google search on “chia seeds”.ResultsWe identified five main topics: 1. general information, 2. effects/side-effects, 3. modes of preparation, 4. target audience, and 5. tone of the article. Sometimes information (especially on the effects) was presented in a sensationalist manner, and some claims were not scientifically well-founded, but rather based on subjective opinion.ConclusionsIn the online media, chia seed consumption was mainly recommended for those who are trying to lose weight and for diabetics, even though there is currently no proof that it can improve the condition of such people. Further studies are needed to demonstrate and confirm claims related to the beneficial effects of the chia seed. Until this has been done, readers of Google-search results – especially those who have a health condition – should be cautious about certain statements published on non-scientific websites.
A vércukor-önellenőrzés a cukorbeteg-gondozás sarokköve. Jelenleg azonban a gondozók és betegek sem aknázzák ki megfelelően az önellenőrzési adatokban rejlő információt. Kevesen töltik le az elektronikus vércukormérőkből az adatokat, és még kevesebben vannak azok az orvosok, akik a vizitek alkalmával szisztematikusan elemeznék és értel-meznék a rögzített adatokat. A szerzők bemutatnak egy szisztematikus eljárást, amely alkalmas a 2-4 hónap során gyűjtött vércukor-és terápiás adatok elemzésére, értelmezésére, az esetleges beállítási és monitorozási problémák feltárására és okainak felderítésére. Az eljárás során meghatározzák: 1. a glykaemiás kontroll általános minőségét, 2. a hypo-és hyperglykaemiák gyakoriságát, súlyosságát és időbeli előfordulását, 3. a vércukorértékek variabilitását, 4. az adatokban megjelenő klinikailag releváns mintázatokat és 5. az önellenőrzés minőségét. A feltárt jellemzők segítsé-gével előállítható egy rangsorolt problémalista, ami segítheti az egyes problémák okainak feltárását. Ezek alapján elvégezhetők azok a módosítások a beteg kezelésében és életmódjában, amelyek várhatóan megszüntetik a kimutatott problémákat. Orv. Hetil., 2015, 156(29), 1165-1173. Kulcsszavak: klinikai döntéstámogatás, diabetes mellitus, önellenőrzés, orvosinformatika Intelligent interpretation of home monitoring blood glucose dataSelf monitoring of blood glucose is the cornerstone of diabetes management. However, the data obtained by self monitoring of blood glucose have rarely been used with the highest advantage. Few physicians routinely download data from memory-equipped glucose meters and analyse these data systematically at the time of patient visits. There is a need for improved methods for the display and analysis of blood glucose data along with a modular approach for identifi cation of clinical problems. The authors present a systematic methodology for the analysis and interpretation of self monitoring blood glucose data in order to assist the management of patients with diabetes. This approach utilizes the followings 1) overall quality of glycemic control; 2) severity and timing of hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia; 3) variability of blood glucose readings; 4) various temporal patterns extracted from recorded data and 5) adequacy of self monitoring blood glucose data. Based on reliable measures of the quality of glycaemic control and glucose variability, a prioritized problem list is derived along with the probable causes of the detected problems. Finally, problems and their interpretation are used to guide clinicians to choose therepeutic actions and/or recommend behaviour change in order to solve the problems that have been identifi ed. Különböző multicentrikus vizsgálatok egyértelműen igazolták, hogy a diabetes súlyos késői szövődményei megfelelő beállítással jelentősen késleltethetők és sok esetben elkerülhetők [1]. A gondozás során ezért a betegek vércukorszintjét egy meghatározott céltartomány-
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
