Biochemical characteristics from patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and re-admitted within 30 days following a surgical procedure at a Taiwanese hospital and a control group

This dataset consists of a single Excel .xlsx file containing biochemical measurements gathered from patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus that underwent a surgical procedure at Pao Chien Hospital, Taiwan, between January 2007 and December 2016. <br>The dataset (<b>diabetes-30-day-readmission-biochemical-data.xlsx</b>) is split into two sheets according to the two groups enrolled in the study: patients re-admitted to hospital within 30 days of discharge (sheet labelled "<b>30-day-re-admitted</b>", n = 206) and a control group (sheet labelled "<b>control-group</b>", n = 610).<br>The dataset presented here contains the following variables measured from each patient:<b>SBP </b>- Systolic blood pressure (mmHg)<b>DBP </b>- Diastolic blood pressure (mmHg)<b>HbA1c </b>- Glycated hemoglobin (%)<b>AV1 </b>- Average blood glucose (mg/dL)<b>SD </b>- Standard deviation of average blood glucose (mg/dL)<b>Cr </b>- Creatinine (mg/dL)<b>Tchol </b>- Total cholesterol (mg/dL)<b>HDL </b>- High density lipoprotein (mg/dL)<b>LDL </b>- Low density lipoprotein (mg/dL)<b>TG </b>- Triglyceride (mg/dL)<b>LOS</b> - Lenght of stay (days)<b><br></b>Average blood glucose measurements (measured during the hospital stay 4 times per day before breakfast, before lunch, before dinner and at sleep time), their standard deviation and HbA1C were recorded from electronic medical records within 1 month before and after admission. TC, HDL, LDL, TG and CR were recorded at admission and within 1 month before and after admission from medical charts.<br>The related study investigates the relationship between the glucose variability of type 2 diabetes patients and 30-day hospital re-admission rates. Further analyses are included in the related study.
