Methods: Cross-sectional descriptive study with a multicenter analytical aim conducted in the hot and cold season from April 2019 to February 2021. Included were 392 pregnant women at 24-28 weeks of amenorrhea. Blood glucose, cortisol, SO2, anthropometric measurements, 30 previous day’s temperature, altitude and atmospheric pressure (atm) were examined. The glycaemia ≥92mg/dL was pathological, in which case cortisolaemia was measured after matching with normal glycaemia. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 23 by calculating median, proportion, ANOVA, Pearson's Chi2 or Fisher's exact test, Wilcoxon -Mann–Whitney test. Results: The proportion of 23.8%, 37.4%, 13.8% and 25.0% of 392 pregnant women lived respectively at the altitude of 1400 m, 1500m, 1700m and 2419m. Pathological glycaemia was twice higher at < 1700 m = atm > 82% [32.9% (n = 295)] Vs ≥ 1700 m [15.0% (n = 295)] [OR 2.2 95% CI (1.5- 3.2)] (p<0.001)] and at SO2 > 95% [30.8% (n= 331)] Vs SO2 ≤ 95% [15.3% (n= 144)] [OR 2.0 95% CI (1.3 - 3.1)] (p < 0.001).

The quality of life and life expectancy are both significantly impacted by this chronic metabolic condition. To help control their blood glucose levels, patients with T2DM adhere to a self-management regimen as instructed by a professional. Various technological options are available now to help self-management. Methods: Here, we present a case of a 64-year-old female with insulin-dependent type 2 diabetes mellitus, multiple co-morbidities, depression, confined to her room, and inability to walk for about a year. After six months of the Sugar fit approach with daily-personalized life coaching, expert medical advice, tech-enabled, AI-driven model, she showed tremendous improvement in every parameter. Results: Before joining sugar fit, the patient was on 44 units of rapid insulin and 18 units of long-acting and oral anti-diabetic medications. The patient’s Hba1c at baseline was 8%; six months later, it is 6.8% with all rapid and long insulin stopped and oral meds essentially the same as before. She has reduced creatinine from 1.88 to 1.37 and triglycerides from 1015 to 448, respectively. Her BP medications have been reduced to 50%. She walks for 2 km every day and is socially active with resolved depression. She has lost 3 kgs of weight and 3 inches of waist circumference. Conclusions: The findings indicate that a tech-enabled, AI-driven model with intensive, personalized coaching, lifestyle modification, and expert physician guidance has shown remarkable results even in this particularly complicated case.

Aim: With this fact in the background, the current study was conducted with an aim to understand the incidence and prevalence of pre-diabetes among adults of Gujarat. Methods: The survey study was conducted in Sourashtra part of Gujarat (N=230 adults; 32.9±9.6 years), India. Based on Capillary fasting blood glucose (CFBG) subjects were grouped into non-diabetes (n=108), pre-diabetes (n=92, 40%) and T2DM (n=30). Demographic data sheet (DDS) was used to assess the origin, socioeconomic status and habit of the respondents and Indian Diabetes Risk Score (IDRS) screening form to detect the risk for T2DM. Results: Close to half of the screened subjects were newly diagnosed with pre-diabetes, among which one-ninth of them were (n=9; 9.8%) identified with high risk for T2DM. Statistical assessment manifested female subjects at higher risk based on low physical activity and higher waist circumference as compared to male. Substantially, risk identification with IDRS was in line with the expedited results of CFBG among pre-diabetes. Conclusion: Incidence of pre-diabetes among adults of Gujarat is found escalating. Matched with the data obtained from DDS, the current study identified diet, physical inactivity and higher waist circumference as most contributing factors increasing incidence of high risk for T2DM among females and more or less the same factors in male as well.","PeriodicalId":398876,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Diabetes Research Reviews &amp; Reports","volume":"72 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127191018","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The diabetes model was performed by applying 40mg/kg STZ and was not established in the subjects in the control and citrate buffer groups with STZ solvent. The quercetin and moss extract were given by gavage for three weeks. The liver and pancreas tissues were examined by histochemical and immunohistochemical methods. Ki-67 (proliferation marker), antinuclear factor kappa (NF-κB), and interleukin 6 (IL-6) immunohistochemically staining revealed significant differences in inflammation and regeneration in the liver and pancreas tissues. In addition, the TUNEL staining method was used to determine apoptosis. Positivity was significant between the treatment and diabetes groups. It was determined that the agents used as treatment changed serum superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA), C-peptide, insulin, and glucose levels.","PeriodicalId":398876,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Diabetes Research Reviews &amp; Reports","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124575722","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objective of this study was to asses DRP in type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients and factors associated with its occurrence and the DRPs that affect QoL. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among T2D patients who were attending a tertiary care teaching hospital, Lebanon. The identification and assessment of DRPs were based on the Pharmaceutical Care Network Europe tool version 8.03. The QoL was assessed using Health Related Quality of Life Brief Clinical Inventory. Results: The total number of DRP was 313 with a mean of 2.05 ± 1.03 per patient. The most common DRPs encountered were adverse drug event (31.3%), untreated symptoms or indication ( 10.54%), effect of drug treatment not optimal (7.34%) and high drug dose (7.34%). Logistic regression showed that polypharmacy and several comorbidities such as stroke, dyslipidemia, heart failure, coronary artery disease, renal and liver impairment were common factors significantly associated with different types of DRPs (p<0.005). The risk of having problems” No effect of drug treatment”,” Effect of drug treatment not optimal” and “Adverse drug event (possibly) occurring” was significantly increased in patients with abnormal HbA1c. The use of sulfonylurea increases the risk of ” Inappropriate duplication of therapeutic group” (p= 0.047). Following a low sugar diet showed to decrease the probability of having problem” Patient uses/takes more drug than prescribed” by 99.99%. On the other hand, insulin administration showed to increase 7.63 times this probability (p=0.006). The average HRQoL was 40 ± 9.900. Linear regression showed that problems “Untreated indication and “Patient uses unnecessary drug” were associated with poor QoL score.

Previously thought to be a linear series of events consisting of ultrafiltration, glomerular hypertension, albuminuria, and successive decreases in GFR, it is now known to be affected by multiple metabolic and hemodynamic pathophysiological mechanisms, leading to cell signaling pathways, oxidative stress, dysregulated autophagy, triggering structural damage and functional alterations leading to disease. There are also recognized risk factors for the disease that trigger pathophysiological mechanisms that contribute to its development, such as obesity, smoking, poor metabolic control, arterial hypertension, ethnicity, among others. Although current therapies have not completely halted the development of the disease, current efforts are focused on developing new therapies that can positively influence its onset and progression, with both SGLTi and AR-GLP1 playing a leading role, improving cardiovascular and renal outcomes, independently of their effect on the control of hyperglycemia, which is why they are currently a fundamental pillar of management.
