摘要：

All persons admitted to a medical school affiliated nursing home during a one-year period were evaluated as to their metabolic profile and diagnoses. Of 93 persons studied, 34 (36.6%) were diagnosed as having hypertension and 19 (20.4%) diagnosed as having diabetes mellitus. Ten (10.8%) of the persons admitted to the nursing home had both diseases co-existing. Of note, persons with both diseases had poorer control of their problems than persons with either disease alone. Persons with diabetes had the greatest number of coexisting problems. Diabetes and hypertension are common problems affecting persons admitted into the nursing home, and often occur together.
