Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Diabetes mellitus is a common complication after kidney transplantation.
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the risk factors for diabetes mellitus after kidney transplantation diabetes mellitus risk factors and clinical treatment based on integrative medicine.
METHODS: Literatures concerning diabetes mellitus after kidney transplantation were retrieved in the database, and the articles that met the study criteria were analyzed. In this paper, we analyzed the risk factors for diabetes mellitus and concluded the therapies for diabetes mellitus after kidney transplantation.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Diabetes mellitus after kidney transplantation is an abnormal glucose metabolism caused by multiple factors, which is related to age, body mass index, lipid levels, immunosuppressant program, frequency of acute rejections, and cumulative dose of glucocorticoid. Periodic monitoring of blood glucose after kidney transplantation contributes to the earlier detection of the occurrence of diabetes mellitus. Integrative medicines that can lower blood glucose level and immunosuppressant adjustment can be effective for the treatment of diabetes mellitus after kidney transplantation.
