Diabetes clinic, waist measurement
MODEL RELEASED. Diabetes clinic, waist measurement. Nurse using a tape to measure the circumference of a womans waist. The patients waist-to-hip ratio is an indication of whether they have excess fat around their internal organs (visceral fat). A ratio of more than 0.8 in women, and 1.0 in men, points to an increased risk of developing heart disease, diabetes or a stroke. Diabetes mellitus affects glucose sugar metabolism. The patients blood sugar is not oxidised due to a lack of the pancreatic hormone insulin. Treatment is based on a strict diet and insulin injections to maintain the blood-sugar balance

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in a diabetes clinic, where a nurse is using a tape measure to determine the circumference of a woman's waist. The measurement being taken is crucial as it helps assess the patient's waist-to-hip ratio, which indicates whether they have excess fat around their internal organs. A waist-to-hip ratio higher than 0.8 for women and 1.0 for men suggests an increased risk of developing heart disease, diabetes, or stroke. In this case, the focus is on diabetes mellitus, which affects glucose sugar metabolism due to insufficient insulin production by the pancreas. The treatment for this condition involves maintaining blood-sugar balance through strict dietary control and regular insulin injections. This image sheds light on the importance of monitoring one's health and taking necessary steps to manage chronic disorders like diabetes. Taken in a European hospital setting within the United Kingdom's National Health Service (NHS), this photograph showcases medical personnel diligently assessing patients' risk factors and providing healthcare services. It serves as a reminder that age or ethnicity does not exempt anyone from potential health concerns; rather, it emphasizes how metabolic disorders can affect individuals across different demographics. Captured in 2012 but still relevant today in our 21st-century society, this image highlights both the advancements made in healthcare and ongoing efforts to combat conditions such as diabetes through early screening and check-ups.
