基糖測® — 及早預防糖尿病
DForesee® — Early Diabetes Prevention
預防勝於治療
It’s better to foresee than to lament
基糖測®是一套創新的風險評估工具，利用經香港中文大學及亞洲糖尿病基金會授權使用之技術及資料庫，結合先天糖尿病遺傳基因及後天可變風險因素（例如體重）進行分析，比傳統血糖檢測更早地精準評估您患上慢性疾病的風險。
它能夠解讀您的糖尿病遺傳基因，闡釋糖尿病風險與您的關係 — 絕非一般檢測可比擬。我們的專業醫療團隊會分析測試結果，為您設計出專屬的個人醫療計劃及指引，助您有效預防糖尿病，減低風險。
不論您是注重健康人士還是糖尿病高危人士，基糖測®都是讓您了解身體狀況的最佳測試。
DForesee® is an innovative risk assessment tool using the licensed technologies and databases from the Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) and Aisa Diabetes Foundation (ADF). By combining your unique genetic makeup and variable risk factors (such as body weight), your risk of developing chronic diseases can be precisely evaluated, which is way earlier than traditional glucose test.
It reads into your genes and tells you the likelihood of developing diabetes – not something conventional screening tests can deduce. The results may provide a guide to your professional medical team in designing a personal healthcare plan and guidelines to help you – and you only – to lower the risk of getting diabetes effectively.
This is the best assessment to have for both health-conscious individuals as well as those at risk of diabetes.

傳統血糖檢測不能有效預防糖尿病
Traditional Glucose Test Cannot Effectively Prevent Diabetes
大眾一般以血糖檢測得知自己患上糖尿病的風險，但血糖值並不能反映即時身體機能狀況。即使血糖值只是微微上升，仍在建議範圍內，身體機能已在不知不覺間逐漸下降。當等到身體再不能維持血糖於正常水平，血糖值響起警號時便已經太遲，很大可能已經患上糖尿病。因此，不能單靠血糖檢測來預防糖尿病。
Public generally uses glucose test to know their risk of developing diabetes. However, glucose level cannot reflect the immediate body function status. Even if the glucose level only rises slightly within the range, body function has gradually declined unconsciously. If you wait until the body is no longer able to maintain blood glucose at normal level and appears warning signal, it is already too late. Diabetes is most likely developed already. Therefore, glucose test is not reliable for diabetes prevention.
糖尿病與遺傳
Diabetes and Heredity
二型糖尿病的形成是綜合先天及後天因素的。若先天帶有多個高危的糖尿病遺傳基因，加上受到後天不良因素影響（如肥胖、吸煙等），這人患上糖尿病的機會相對較高。相反，若本身帶有的高危基因數目不多，後天亦關注生活健康，這人患上糖尿病的機會相對較低。雖然糖尿病遺傳基因是無法改變，但仍可透過改變後天因素而降低風險。所以，越早了解自己的先天遺傳風險及身體狀況，就越能夠預防糖尿病。
Type 2 diabetes results from both genetic and acquired variable risk factors. If an individual naturally has multiple high-risk genes related to diabetes and is also affected by adverse environmental factors (e.g. obese and smoking, etc.), these factors will increase the overall risk of developing diabetes. On the contrary, if one has a limited number of high-risk genes and concerns healthy lifestyle, this individual has a relatively lower chance of developing diabetes. Although genes are irreversible, variable risk factors can be changed to reduce the diabetes risk. Therefore, the earlier you know about your genetic risk and physical conditions, the better you can prevent yourself from developing diabetes.
