Background: The relationship between cutaneous and extracutaneous complications in pediatric patients with type 1 diabetes is unclear. Objective: The objective of the current study is to investigate the relationship between skin disorders and diabetic microangiopathic changes in pediatric and adolescent patients with type 1 diabetes. Patients and methods: Eighty patients with type 1 diabetes and 50 healthy controls were enrolled in the study. All recruited patients were followed up monthly for a total period of 12 month. Monthly visit included thorough clinical examination with system review, as well as whole-body cutaneous examination. HbA1c was assessed every 3 month. Twenty-four hours urine was collected for measurement of urinary albumin. Results: Fifty percent of the screened diabetic cohort had diabetic nephropathy (DN). The overall prevalence of cutaneous lesion among the studied diabetic cohort was high (72.5%), with cutaneous infections (40%) and xerosis (30%) being the most prevalent. The frequency of cutaneous infections, xerosis and rubeosis faciei was higher in patients with nephropathy than in those without nephropathy. Conclusion: cutaneous affection in patients with diabetes may be a clue to the presence of associated microangioapthic complications. The significant association between diabetic nephropathy and cutaneous lesions support the concept that cutaneous lesion in diabetes is a reflection of diabetic angiopathy, highlighting the importance of identifying patients at risk of other microvascular complications.

Objectives: To determine the epidemiological profile of patients in a podiatric clinic, and in turn assess correlations and variables associated with the occurrence of diseases to establish results that will discuss the scientific literature and set a target population to improve both prevention and treatment of the most common foot problems. Material and Method: Quantitative and qualitative analysis of the variables in medical records of patients in a Podiatric Clinic of La Coruña Province. Non-experimental, descriptive study with retrospective analysis of a representative sample of the population with a confidence interval of 95% (p≤0,05) and an accuracy of ±6%. Results: 236 medical records were selected randomly. The more representative type of patient are middle-aged women and the most common motive for coming to the clinic has been suffering from pain in the feet (81.36 %) a high prevalence of keratopathies affections of the foot was found( 74.6 % ), as well as nail affections (55.1%). Conclusions: Being female and elderly age are the variables that have demonstrated a strong statistical association with the appearance of podiatric conditions. The target population to focus on preventive action as to the conditions of the foot, would be the school population. Conducting an awareness program of the use of appropriate footwear for the wearer's foot, the activity performed and the surface where this is done; especially in the female adolescent population, which is starting to develop the use of inappropriate footwear.Key Words: epidemiology, foot, podiatry, epidemiologic profile, foot diseases, ResumenObjetivos: Conocer el perfil epidemiológico de los pacientes de una clínica de podología, y a su vez valorar correlaciones y variables asociadas a la aparición de patologías para establecer resultados que permitan discutir la literatura científica y establecer una población diana para mejorar tanto la prevención como el tratamiento de los problemas más frecuentes del pie. Metodología: Análisis cualitativo y cuantitativo de las variables recogidas en las historias clínicas de los Pacientes de una Clínica Podológica de la Provincia de A Coruña. Estudio no experimental descriptivo con análisis retrospectivo de una muestra representativa de la población. Resultados: 236 historias clínicas han sido seleccionadas aleatoriamente. El tipo de paciente más presente son las mujeres de mediana edad y el principal motivo de consulta ha sido padecer dolor en los pies (81.36%). Se ha obtenido una alta prevalencia de afectaciones queratopáticas en el pie (74.6%), así como de onicopatías (55.1%). Conclusiones: El sexo femenino y la edad avanzada son las variables que han demostrado una potente asociación estadística con la aparición de afecciones podológicas. La población diana en la que centrar una acción preventiva en cuanto a las afecciones del pie, sería la población escolar. Llevando a cabo una concienciación del uso de un calzado adecuado para el pie del usuario, la actividad a realizar y a la superficie donde esta ...
