Estimation of HbA1c in hospitalized patients with bronchial asthma

Qasim Bayar , Haj Safer , Ahmed Herish

Background: Asthma is a chronic inflammatory respiratory disease. Stress hormones may increase in asthma and expected to induce hyperglycemia. Some anti-asthma medications increase blood glucose levels e.g. Beta-agonist, while others are known hyperglycemic agent’s e.g. steroids. People who have experienced stress hyperglycemia during severe illness have a threefold risk of developing diabetes in subsequent years, and it may be appropriate to screen for diabetes in surviv...

Introduction: Tumor necrosis factor-like weak inducer of apoptosis (TWEAK) belongs to TNF family and is released from inflammatory cells. It has been reported that TWEAK has several biological actions ranging from cell proliferation to stimulation of apoptosis. In in vitro studies, it was reported that TWEAK has alleviating effect on insulin resistance in hepatocytes. TWEAK decreases insulin resistance induced by TNF-a through activation of phosphatase 2A pathway in a...

Maternally inherited diabetes and deafness (MIDD): the many faces of the same disease in a Spanish family

Silva Carlos , Garcia Elena , Villa Gema , Martin Alba , Males David , Martinez Guillermo , Leon Miguel

Introduction: Maternally inherited diabetes and deafness (MIDD), is a rare entity. Most commonly, it is related to a point mutation in the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) at position 3243 (m.3243A>G) encoding the gene for tRNA. A high index of suspicion is required for the diagnosis due to a wide heterogeneity in its clinical presentation which reflects different levels of mutated mtDNA among mitochondria in a given tissue (heteroplasmy). Thyroid cancer risk has never been speci...

The detection of disordered eating risk in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus

Labashova Veranika , Shepelkevich Alla , Dydyshka Yulia , Kozlova Alena

Background and aims: Type 2 diabetes is strongly associated with obesity as the major potentially modifiable risk factor. Apart from total caloric intake, certain eating patterns have been associated with the risk of diabetes and insulinoresistance. Researchers have found that specific groups in the community may be at increased risk of eating disorders, including people with diabetes and those who are obese. The aim of the study was to detect the risk of disordered eating in ...

Demographic and clinical factors associated with having ischemic heart disease as a multiple contributing causes of death among diabetes mellitus deaths in the United States and Brazil

Sugai Maaya Kita , Nomura Shuhei , Gilmour Stuart , Stevens Gretchen A , Shibuya Kenji

Introduction: Between-country comparability and validity of mortality statistics is a global public health challenge, especially for cause-of-death assignment of diabetes mellitus (here after diabetes) in relation to cardiovascular disease. The multiple contributing causes of death (MCD) representing comorbidity are not used to classify mortality cause, as the underlying cause of death (UCD) becomes the cause-of-death. Diabetes increases risk of ischemic heart disease (IHD). T...

Luchtenberg Maria Florencia , Capel Ismael , Mazarico Isabel , Cano Albert , Albert Lara , Casamitjana Laia , Subias David , Martinez Jose Miguel , Caixas Assumpta , Rigla Mercedes

Introduction: Stiff person syndrome (SPS) is a rare neurological disease resulting in stiffness and spasm of muscles and, as a consequence, severely impaired ambulation. Pathophysiology of the disease is based on an increased muscle activity caused by the decreased level of the inhibitory neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) due to an autoimmune attack against glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD); enzyme which is also one of the main autoantigens of type 1 diabetes mel...

Reactive hypoglycaemia – a debilitating condition

Grant Bonnie , Bonner Caoimhe , Lee Yun-ni , William Augustine , Tanday Raj , Hawkins Anna , Casey Edel , Nikookam Khash

Although there are no formal diagnostic criteria, reactive hypoglycaemia is a term generally used to describe hypoglycaemia occurring within a few hours after meal intake where other causes of hypoglycaemia such as medications, cortisol deficiency and insulinoma have been excluded. Although this is considered a benign, easily managed condition here we present three cases of reactive hypoglycaemia with significant debilitating symptoms. The first case is a 26-year-old man who w...

Metabolic syndrome in patients with latent autoimmune diabetes of adults (LADA)

Zahra Zaher Fatima , Elmghari Ghizlane , Elansari Nawal

Introduction: Latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA) is an endocrine disorder characterized by a progressive destruction of pancreatic beta cells by an autoimmune mechanism leading to absolute insulin deficiency. However, recent studies have shown the presence of a certain degree of insulin resistance in LADA patients, hence the possibility of the existence of a metabolic syndrome in these patients.
