Background: The positive and negative health effects of dietary carbohydrates are of interest to both researchers and consumers. Low glycemic index (GI) and glycemic load (GL) carbohydrates have been shown to have favourable effects on blood lipid parameters. Objective: This study aims to investigate whether the GI and GL diet in dyslipidemic individuals. Methods: The subjects, 15 men and 15 women, dyslipidemic patients followed up at Hospital de Coari, were invited to answer a self-administered questionnaire for 3 days about food intake. The fasting biochemical profile was analyzed, such as total cholesterol, triglycerides and blood glucose. Results: Low GI diet daily value were observed in women and men and GL diet daily value below the minimum low line for both. A correlation was found between GI and GL diet with triglycerides levels and woman and not in men. Lunch GL value were associated with blood triglycerides parameters. Biochemical profile showed an increase in fasting blood glucose only in men and in lipid levels for both. Conclusion: Dyslipidemic individuals might be potential influencing factors in the associations between GI and GL diet and dyslipidemia, suggesting such modifications could potentially be a useful public health recommendation.

Aims: The progression of prediabetes to T2DM can be delayed through diet modification and weight management. However, the intensive lifestyle program is often not covered by medical insurance. This retrospective analysis evaluates the association of a patient self-paid weight management program on an improvement of blood sugar in overweight and obese patients with impaired fasting glucose (IFG). Methods: The medical records of 4634 patients who participated in the self-pay UCLA Weight Management Program were reviewed and 2572 patients met the criteria for this retrospective analysis to examine whether this program was associated with the reversal of IFG over 3 months among 1396 patients with normal fasting glucose (NFG) and 1176 with IFG. Results: The patients with IFG lost comparable amounts of weight (10.5 ± 1.3 kg) at three months, as did the subjects with NFG (10.1 ± 1.3 kg). Fasting blood glucose in the IFG group decreased from 108.49 ± 6.4 to 101.8 ± 9.41 mg/dL (p < 0.0001) after three months. There were also significant reductions in triglycerides, and both systolic and diastolic blood pressure in both groups in association with weight loss. Conclusion: Our medically supervised self-pay multidisciplinary weight management program was associated with reduced fasting blood glucose levels in patients with IFG over three months with comparable weight loss to patients with NFG.

Aim.To study the associations between blood lipid profile and blood glucose levels in men with coronary heart disease (CHD), stable effort angina (SEA), metabolic syndrome (MS), and Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM-2).Material and methods.The study included 82 men (mean age 50,5±0,9 years) with CHD, Functional Class I–III SEA, MS, and DM-2. The following lipid profile parameters were assessed: total cholesterol (TCH), triglycerides (TG), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL–CH), very low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (VLDL–CH), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL–CH), atherogenic index (AI), and triglyceride index (TGI), together with fasting blood glucose.Results.There were positive (direct) associations between higher levels (>90th percentile) of lipid profile parameters (TCH, TG, LDL–CH, VLDL– CH, HDL–CH, AI, TGI) and blood glucose, as well as between lower levels (≤10th percentile) of lipid profile parameters (TCH, TG, LDL–CH, VLDL– CH, AI, TGI) and blood glucose. At the same time, there were negative (inverse) associations between lower lipid levels (≤10th percentile of TCH, TG, LDL–CH, VLDL–CH, HDL–CH, AI, TGI) and higher glucose levels (>90th percentile), as well as between higher lipid levels (>90th percentile of TCH, TG, LDL–CH, VLDL–CH, HDL–CH, AI, TGI) and lower glucose levels (≤10th percentile).Conclusion.Dyslipidemia and hyperglycemia demonstrate synergetic proatherogenic effects in patients with CHD, SEA, MS, and DM-2, as suggested by significant heterogeneous (direct and inverse) associations between lipid profile parameters and fasting blood glucose. The results obtained provide an opportunity for the assessment of risk levels, prognosis, and need for pharmacological prevention and treatment in patients with combined cardiovascular pathology.

Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a combination of physiologically dysregulated parameters that can include elevated fasting blood glucose, high blood pressure, central obesity, increased triglyceride levels, insulin resistance, diabetes, elevated low density lipoprotein levels, and reduced high density lipoprotein levels in the blood. Effective clinical management of MetS is critical as it is strongly associated with long lasting and fatal complications in patients. Alongside standard care of lifestyle changes and medication, dietary supplements derived from herbal resources could be an alternative therapeutic strategy that is safe, efficient, culturally acceptable, and has few side effects. Of the dietary supplements, spicy foods have always been considered a great source of functional bioactive compounds. Herbal therapy is broadly used in many countries as a treatment or as a preventive measure in the management of MetS risk factors, including blood glucose, blood pressure, and blood lipid levels. Herein, an attempt is made to evaluate the recent studies in the management of MetS with herbal alternatives, and to explore the possibility of their use as therapeutic treatments or supplements.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: The aim is to investigate if sustained weight loss due to caloric restriction can be achieved in a community setting, using faith-based organisations (FBOs) as hubs; and if this weight loss can lead to the re-establishment of normal metabolism (using the normalisation of blood sugar levels while off glucose lowering medication as a proxy) in a person with pre-diabetes or T2DM. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Members of the FBO with either a diagnosis of T2DM for <6 years or pre-diabetes as defined by the American Diabetes Association (ADA); and a Body Mass index (BMI) of ≥27 kg/m2 are eligible. After counselling, participants will be placed on a 12 week low calorie liquid diet, supplemented by low carbohydrate vegetables, totalling approximately 840 kcal/day. During this time, participants will be monitored weekly at their FBO by trained members of their congregation, with oversight from the study team, for change in weight, fasting blood glucose, waist and hip circumference and blood pressure. This will be followed by a 3 month period during which participants will receive ongoing dietary advice as they transfer to a balanced, reduced calorie, solid diet. Physical measurements will be monitored monthly during this 3 month period. The next 6 months is a period where the participants and the FBO health team move towards ‘independence’. This involves further training of the FBO health team and participants in healthy lifestyle habits; and a commitment by the leadership of the FBO to assume ‘ownership’ for NCD monitoring within their community. Physical measurements will be repeated at the end of one year. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Based on previous studies, we expect that participants who are compliant to the diet will lose approximately 2.2 kg per week over the 12 week period. This will be associated with rapid (within 1 week) normalisation of fasting blood glucose levels (<7mmol / L). We expect that, due to the accessibility of NCD monitoring and support, that participants to be satisfied with their care and compliant to their regime and that the results of the first 12 weeks will be sustained at the 12 month follow up. We expect that the FBO leadership will assume the responsibility of continuing and NCD programme, not only for the local congregation but for the surrounding community. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Diabetes remission with a low calorie diet is a viable intervention for T2DM remission however social support is key to an individual’s success. This novel study which proposes institution of a diabetes remission intervention which fits into the participant’s locale and involves peer support, should increase long-term success.

Background: Several previous studies suggest that SPX plays a role in appetite control and body weight and blood glucose regulation. The aim of this study to determine SPX levels in healthy pregnancies and in gestational diabetes (GDM) and to investigate the association of SPX levels with weight gain and lipid and glucose metabolism in subjects with and without GDM.Methods: A total of 44 women with GDM and 44 women without GDM were randomly enrolled who applied for GDM screening during the 24-28th week of pregnancy. Demographics, blood glucose and lipid profiles and Spexin levels were compared between groups.Results: The mean age, BMI, and weight gain during pregnancy were higher in the GDM group. The LDL cholesterol, Hba1c, SPX and glucose levels in response to OGTT were higher in the GDM group. The SPX levels were correlated with Hba1c and blood glucose levels after OGTT, and were not correlated with the age, BMI, weight gain during pregnancy, lipid parameters, and fasting blood glucose levels in the whole study population.Conclusions: SPX levels were higher in the GDM group compared with non-GDM group and SPX levels were correlated with HbA1c levels and post-OGTT glucose levels but not with fasting glucose levels.

Background:Fat deposits in obesity can trigger oxidative stress and systemic inflammation that cause insulin resistance, which increases the risk of diabetes mellitus. Magnesium is a cofactor of various enzymes in glucose metabolism that plays a role in the process of glucose uptake in the muscles and also acts as an anti-inflammatory. Good intake of nutrients can prevent the metabolic diseases.Objectives:to evaluate the correlation among serum magnesium,energy, macro nutrient and magnesium intake with fasting blood glucose levels in overweight and obese adults.Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 93 overweight(BMI ≥ 25-29.9 kg/m2) and obese (BMI ≥30 kg/m2) adults in February to May 2019 in Serengan District, Surakarta City. The measurement of serum magnesium using kalorimetri and fasting blood glucose using hexokinase method. Energy, macro nutritionand magnesium intake was assessed using 2x24 hour food recall. The bivariate analysis was carried out using Pearson correlation with p value of <0.05 followed by multivariable multiple linear regression analysis with 95% CI.Results:There was no significant correlation of energy, macro nutrient and magnesium intake with blood glucose level. There was a significant negative correlation between serum magnesium and fasting blood glucose in overweight and obese adults (p=0.009; r=-0.286; CI95%=-71.321–(-10.480)).Conclusions: Serum magnesium are the factors most associated with blood glucose in overweight and obese adults. Blood glucose will increase along with decreasing level of serum magnesium.ABSTRAKLatar Belakang: Timbunan lemak pada obesitas menjadi pemicu terjadinya stress oksidatif dan inflamasi sitemik penyebab resistensi insulin sehingga risiko terjadinya diabetes mellitus akan meningkat. Magnesium merupakan kofaktor berbagai enzim dalam metabolisme glukosa yang berperan dalam proses ambilan glukosa di otot dan juga sebagai antiinflamasi. Asupan zat gizi yang baik dapat mencegah terjadinya penyakit metabolik.Tujuan: untuk mengevaluasi hubungan magnesium serum, asupan energi, zat gizi makro dan magnesium dengan glukosa darah puasa pada dewasa overweight dan obesitas.Metode: Penelitian crossectional terhadap 93 orang dewasa dengan status gizi lebih atau overweight (IMT ≥ 25-29,9 kg/m2) dan obesitas (IMT ≥30 kg/m2) pada bulan Februari hingga Mei 2019 di Kecamatan Serengan Kota Surakarta. Pemeriksaan magnesium serum dengan metode kalorimetri dan glukosa darah puasa dengan metode heksokinase. Penilaian asupan energi, zat gizi makro dan magnesium dengan food recall 2x24 jam. Analisis bivariat menggunakan korelasi Pearson dengan nilai p < 0,05 dilanjutkan analisis multivariabel regresi linier ganda dengan CI 95%.Hasil: Tidak ada korelasi signifikan asupan energi, zat gizi makro dan magnesium dengan glukosa darah. Adanya korelasi negatif yang signifikan antara kadar serum magnesium dengan glukosa darah puasa pada dewasa overweight dan obesitas (p=0,009; r=-0,286; CI95%=-71,321–(-10,480)).Kesimpulan: Kadar magnesium serum merupakan faktor yang paling berhubungan dengan glukosa darah pada orang dewasa overweight dan obesitas di Kecamatan Serengan Kota Surakarta. Glukosa darah akan meningkat seiring dengan penurunan kadar magnesium serum.
