Abstract

Purpose: With the continuous progress and development of social economy, the process of urbanization has been significantly improved. As people’s physical fatigue and work intensity are significantly weaker than before, the way of sitting and working is significantly reduced, life and dietary habits have also undergone significant changes, high-calorie diets have further increased, and many regions and countries in the world are currently aging. At the stage of transformation, the average prevalence of diabetes is also on the rise in most parts of the world. Diabetes has become an important global public health and hygiene event in the 21st century. This article aims to study whether controlling hyperglycemia will reduce the white blood cell count and the expression of inflammatory genes. Methods: 85 diabetic patients with poor blood glucose control in a hospital were selected for three months of hypoglycemic treatment, and the difference between the groups was compared by t test. Results: After three months of hypoglycemic treatment, the improvement group showed statistically significant differences in the measured quantity counts of leukocytes, neutrophils, monocytes, and lymphocytes and in the measured quantity counts of S100A8 gene and S100A9 gene mRNAs, none of the differences in the non improvement group. Conclusion: Controlling the blood sugar of diabetic patients can reduce their white blood cell count and also have an effect on the decrease of the expression of inflammatory genes in their granulocytes and monocytes.
