The number of elderly persons with diabetes mellitus type 2 is expected to progressively increase. Management of this category of patients should be individualised and include the adequate correction of hyperglycaemia, prevention of long-term complications, prevention of hypoglycaemia, reduction of cardiovascular mortality and preservation of quality of life. This article summarises basic information on the pathophysiology of carbohydrate metabolism, peculiarities of the course of diabetes and use of antidiabetic drugs in the elderly. Special attention is paid to reviewing the goals of glycaemic control and proposed clinical guidelines.

Aim. To study the influence of hypoglycemic therapy on hospital and long-term prognosis in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and diabetes type 2.Methods. The study included 63 patients with ACS and type 2 diabetes. All patients had a clinical examination, assessment of mortality risk and myocardial infarction on GRACE scale (Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events) and TIMI (Thrombolisis In Myocardial Infarction) in-hospital and six months after hospitalization.Results. Metformin is associated with a lower estimated risk of in-hospital mortality and within 6 months after discharge in patients with acute coronary syndrome on the background of type 2 diabetes and with less risk of adverse cardiovascular events within 14 days of their occurrence in patients with unstable angina pectoris on the background of diabetes. High daily doses of metformin have also been associated with a decrease in the estimated risk of in-hospital mortality and within 6 months after discharge in patients with ACS associated with diabetes. The inverse association between the daily dosage of metformin and the presence of angina pectoris in patients with ACS and diabetes type 2 indicates a protective effect of metformin high daily dosages in relation to the risk of complications within six months after the discharge from hospital.Conclusion. One of the important aspects of ACS treatment, along with effective therapy, is the impact on concomitant risk factors, including blood glucose control. The main groups of hypoglycemic drugs have currently been identified; their effect on cardiovascular events, long-term effects and long-term prognosis are being investigated.

IntroductionDiabetes type 2 is 2–3 fold more common in patients with schizophrenia compared to the general population. A lifestyle with focus on diet, exercise and medication is required to prevent complications from diabetes type 2.ObjectivesPatients may have trouble complying with a well-structured and healthy lifestyle because of factors related to their illness e.g. cognitive disturbances, negative/positive symptoms and treatment with psychotropic medication.AimsTo measure and reduce diabetes type 2 risk factors in patients and examine characteristics associated with a positive outcome.MethodsA naturalistic intervention study through 30 months of clinical work with individual guidance, group sessions and treatment as usual.ResultsAt index, the newly diagnosed patients had a high consumption of soft drinks and low physical activity. Over time, the newly diagnosed patients worsened their physical profile with increased weight, waist circumference, visceral adiposity index (P = 0.030) and HbA1c (P = 0.010). HbA1c increased for newly diagnosed male patients with 0.24 m.mol/L (P = 0.007). The long-term patient's physical activity level was low. After the intervention, they improved in consumption of soft drinks (P = 0.001) and fast food meals (P = 0.009). Furthermore, the long-term patients lowered their weight and waist circumference while becoming more physically active. There were no changes in HbA1c in the intervention period.ConclusionOur study showed being long-term ill and female gender was associated with positive outcome of lifestyle intervention into improving physical health and reducing diabetes type 2 risk, meanwhile being newly diagnosed and being male showed a negative outcome despite intervention.Disclosure of interestThe author has not supplied his/her declaration of competing interest.

 Individuals who have a family history oftype 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) have a highrisk for type 2 diabetes. Type 2 diabetescan be prevented by improving modifiablerisk factors, supported by self-awareness,perceptions and attitudes of individualswho have a high family history of DM. Thisstudy used a qualitative phenomenologicaldesign. A Purposive Sampling techiniquewas applied to determine individuals whohad parents with type 2 diabetes. Nineindividuals participated in this study. AQualitative content analysis with Collaiziapproach used as a data analysis method.The main themes depicted individuals selfawareness,perceptions, & attitudes were:denials that diabetes caused by heredityfactors; misperception about diabetes;“traditional modalities” as a preventionmeasurement toward type 2 diabetes; andDM is perceived as a “threatening disease”.Further study is needed to examine indepth the themes that have been identifiedon the number of participants are morenumerous and varied.

Introduction: Hyperuricemia is common Type 2 diabetes at very high cardiovascular risk. Objective: Evaluate the relationship between hyperuricemia and diabetes type 2, and determine its predictive factors in this population. Patients and Methods: Retrospective study cross including 190 patients with diabetes type 2 hospitalized Service of Endocrinology of CHU Ibn Rushd Casablanca from January 2015 to December 2017. Hyperuricemia was defined as a serum uric acid concentration> 70 mg/L (men) and> 60 mg/L (women). The variables studied were the anthropometric measurements), cardiovascular factors (tobacco, hypertension, dyslipidemia), and degenerative complications (retinopathy, neuropathy, kidney failure, ischemic heart disease). The analyzes were performed by SPSS software. Results: Hyperuricemia was found in 26.5% of patients with a female predominance (76%), an average age of 55.9 years, and an average age of 12.4ans diabetes. The glycemic control was found in 84.6% of cases with mean glycated hemoglobin 8.6%. Factors associated al hyperuricemia were the blood pressure in 86% (p <0.05), dyslipidemia in 76.3% of cases (p <0.001) with hypertriglyceridemia in 48.3% of cases (p <0.02), and a hypoHDLémie 28% (p <0.001). The age, obesity, smoking, and glycemic control were associated significantly n al hyperuricemia. The research of degenerative complications of hyperuricemia has objectified renal impairment (GFR between 15 and 60ml / min) chez47% (p <0.001), it was kind of moderate in 35.8% (p <0.01) and severe in 5.1% (p <0.02), ischemic heart disease was found in 34% of cases (p <0.01). Conclusion: In our study, hyperuricemia in type 2 diabetes is common in female patients, especially with hypertension, dyslipidemia, and renal failure. Other factors such as age, obesity, smoking is not associated with hyperuricemia in type 2 diabetics.
