[A plea for a chronobiological approach to diabetes mellitus].
Diabetes mellitus is, in most patients, a multi-metabolic condition disease under fixed standardized conditions. We develop here the advantages of a chronobiological approach, exploring nycthemeral variations in blood pressure, variations in insulin resistance, postprandial changes in blood glucose and postabsorptive variations in blood lipids. Such information can help improve our understanding of the disease, better identify risk and prognosis, and enlighten therapeutic options.
