Intense control can reduce the risk by nearly half. And, the study found, the effect occurred even though the patients had only had a r

11、elatively brief period of intense blood sugar control when they were young adults. None the less, more than a decade later, when they reached middle age, when heart disease and strokes normally start to appear, they were protected. The study involved those with Type 1 diabetes, which usually arises

12、early in life and involves the death of insulin-secreting cells. The question of whether rigid blood sugar control protects against heart disease and strokes has divided the field for decades, diabetes researchers said. “Its really a major question that has been around for a long time,“ said Dr. Jud

14、nst damage to the eyes, kidneys and nerves, there was no conclusive evidence that it would have the same effect on heart disease and strokes. “In that sense, this is a landmark study,“ said Fradkin. But the result also gives rise to questions: Does the same effect occur in people with Type 2 diabete

15、s, which usually occurs later in life and involves an inability to respond to insulin? And why would tight control of blood sugar for one brief period have such a pronounced effect later? Fradkin said she expected the results would hold for Type 2 diabetes. Another large U. S. federal study is addre

16、ssing that question, she notes, but it is already known that tight control of blood sugar in Type 2 diabetes protects against nerve, kidney and eye damage, just as it does with Type 1 diabetes. In addition, a study in Britain hinted although it did not demonstrate that Type 2 diabetics who keep thei

17、r blood sugar low have less heart disease and strokes. Fradkin said she hoped the emerging evidence and improving therapies would make a difference.

18、成立，定北京为首都。 在漫长的历史进程中，各民族不同的文化在这块宝地上相互渗透交融，孕育成一种特有的北京韵味。那金碧辉煌的宫阙殿堂，那雄伟壮丽的城墙门楼，那纵横交错的大街小巷，那淳朴憨厚的民风民俗，以及那些充满地方色调的店铺摊贩 北京，无一时，无一处，无一事不令人流连怀念，津津乐道。 4 在战地，我们的生活特别快乐。虽然我们睡的 是潮湿的地铺，喝的是泥沟里的污水，吃的是硬饭冷菜，穿的是单薄的衣裤，盖着从上海妇女慰劳会 (Shanghai Womens Armed Forces Relief Association)捐赠的薄被，睡在朔风凛冽的堂屋里，但我们这一群平时过惯了舒服生活的小姐，一点也不

20、大自然赐予希腊的，除令人惊叹的天然美景之外，还有许多温泉，其医疗性能，在古代即已闻名于世。医学之父希波克拉底，约 2500年前就 首先发现了温泉的这种功效。 温泉的地理分布也并非偶然，因为这是与地壳运动或火山活动相关的，温泉的泉水对许多疾病有疗效，例如风湿病、关节炎以及与肺、肾、血液循环和皮肤有关的各种疾病。在 750多个天然温泉之中，有约 80处是按照天然水疗中心的规格经营的，许多地方具备住宿条件和其他设施。 政府经与旅游协会、酒店老板和旅游投资顾问协商，正在起草一部新的法律，以便使健康旅游有章可循。预计此项法律明年初即可在议会通过，这样就为建立各健康旅游中心确定一个法律框架，并提出先决条件

21、，包括有关残疾客人的各项条款。一个条件是，这类中心必须常年营业，而不是只在夏季营业。另一个条件是，提供保健设施的旅店要建在医院或机场附近。 2004年 12月生效的发展法规定了颇具吸引力的奖励措施，例如健康旅游中心投资者可享受补贴或减税优惠。政府鼓励在希腊西北部各地实行区域开发。 瑞典、英国和德国的医生和投资者已经表示有意在希腊建立健康旅游中心，以利用希腊温和的气候、较低的湿度和常年的阳光。有些健康旅游中心除进行水疗外，还治疗精神方面的疾病 抑郁症、心理问题和上瘾的习惯等。希腊乡村有许多地方安宁恬静，人们认为这样的环 境对北欧人来说可以起到医疗的作用，因为北欧各国气候阴冷，能使患者染上抑郁症，

24、成果也引起了一些问题： 2型糖尿病患者通常在年纪较大时发病，而且不能对胰岛素作出反映，对于这样的病人，也能产生同样的疗效吗 ?为什么在一段不长的时间里严格控制血糖，会在日后产生深远影响 ? 福莱德金说，她预期这项研究结果将同样适用于 2型糖尿病。她说，美国另外一项大规模的国家级研究项目正在解决这一问题。现已查明，严格控制血糖对 2型糖尿病的作用和对 l型糖尿病的作用相同，能防止神经、肾脏和眼睛受到损伤。此外，英国进行的一项研究已经露出迹象 虽然没有公开表示 表明 2型糖尿病患者，凡是保持血糖低的，患心脏病和中风的可能性就小。 福莱德金说，她希望随着新证据的出现和医疗方法的改进，情况将有所变化。
