Background: The high prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) among patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) is becoming a serious public health concern worldwide. FOLFOX4 chemotherapy is one of the most widely used adjuvant therapies in patients with stage III colon cancer after surgical resection. However, chemotherapy resistance is associated with a poor prognosis. The prognostic impact of high blood sugar levels on oxaliplatin resistance in CRC patients is an unexplored topic. Methods: In total, 157 patients with stage III CRC were classified according to their fasting blood sugar level (⩾126 or <126 mg/dl). Clinicopathological features and oxaliplatin chemoresistance/survival outcome of the two groups were compared. In vitro cell proliferation assay was performed through d-(+)-glucose administration. Results: Multivariate analysis results revealed that high blood sugar level was a significantly independent prognostic factor of disease-free survival and overall survival (both p < 0.05), but not DM history. After metformin administration, enhanced proliferation of CRC cells (HT-29, HCT-116, SW480, and SW620) with d-(+)-glucose administration could be reversed and oxaliplatin chemosensitivity considerably increased ( p < 0.05). Furthermore, phosphorylation of two glycolysis-related target proteins, SMAD3 and MYC, notably increased under high glucose concentration. Conclusions: Hyperglycemia can affect clinical outcomes in stage III CRC patients receiving adjuvant chemotherapy, and the mechanism underlying oxaliplatin resistance is possibly associated with increased phosphorylation of SMAD3 and MYC and upregulation of EHMT2 expression.

532 Background: FOLFOX4 chemotherapy is one of the most widely used adjuvant therapies in patients with stage III colon cancer after surgical resection. However, chemotherapy resistance is associated with a poor prognosis. The prognostic impact of high blood sugar levels on oxaliplatin resistance in CRC patients is an unexplored topic. Methods: A total of 157 patients with stage III CRC were classified according to their serum blood sugar level (≥ 126 or < 126 mg/dL). Clinicopathological features and clinical outcomes (oxaliplatin resistance) of the two groups were analyzed. Results: Through multivariate analysis, both disease-free and overall survival of CRC patients was found to be significantly associated with serum blood glucose levels (both P < 0.05) but not DM history. In vitro cell proliferation assay was performed through D-(+)-glucose administration. After metformin administration, enhanced proliferation of CRC cells with D-(+)-glucose administration could be reversed and oxaliplatin sensitivity considerably increased ( P < 0.05). Furthermore, phosphorylation of two glycolysis-related target proteins, SMAD3 and MYC, notably increased with high glucose concentration. Conclusions: In summary, hyperglycemia could affect clinical outcomes in CRC patients receiving adjuvant chemotherapy, with the underlying oxaliplatin resistance mechanism possibly associated with increasing phosphorylation of SMAD3 and MYC and upregulation of G9A expression.

Diabetes mellitus was a disease with macro and micro risk of angiopathy, which includes the impact of causing cataracts. Diabetic patients with high sugar levels have a greater chance of developing cataracts at a younger age and certain tendencies towards cataract type. The aim of the study was to analyze the correlation between diabetes blood sugar levels and cataract type. The research design was correlation analysis with Cross-Sectional approach. Samples in the study were some cataract patients who had a history of diabetes mellitus in Surabaya Undaan Eye Hospital as many as 125 people, it was taken using consecutive sampling technique, and fulfilling the criteria of the study (age range 45 - 65 years, have complete medical records related to the continuity of sugar examination results in blood, the incidence of cataracts is not caused by congenital cataracts, juveniles, due to trauma, chemical exposure to UV radiation). Independent variable was the blood sugar level of Diabetes mellitus and the Dependent variable was cataract type. The instruments used were laboratory tests related to blood sugar levels, and medical diagnosis related to cataract type. Data were analyzed by Spearman rho, with a significant value <0.05. The results showed a close association between diabetes and cataracts, where as many as 47.2% with high blood sugar levels, 40% with nuclear cataract type and from 59 respondents with high blood sugar levels 26 people experienced nuclear cataract type, with rho value = 0.001. The mechanism of glucose toxicity in Diabetes Mellitus which causes cataracts can go through three paths: increased activity of the aldose reductase enzyme which causes the formation of sugar alcohol, sorbitol and galactitol in crystalline lenses; through the non-enzymatic replication process; and at high blood glucose levels a glucose oxidation process will occur which causes oxidative stress conditions. Maintenance of managing blood sugar levels must be a concern for diabetics.   Keywords: Blood Sugar Level, Diabetes Mellitus, Type of Cataract

Uncontrolled hyperglycaemia in individuals with diabetes mellitus can increase the risk factors for disease complications. Therefore, lifestyle management becomes a vital measure for those individuals, especially in diet management, to control their blood sugar level. Breadfruit starch-based cookies contain resistant starch, amylose, and amylopectin that can inhibit the increment of blood sugar levels. Hence, these cookies can be used as an alternative snack for those individuals. This study was aimed to analyse the content of resistant starch, amylose, and amylopectin, as well as the acceptability level of breadfruit starch-based cookies. We used a completely randomised experiment using four formulations with various breadfruit flour content: 25%, 50%, 75% and 100%. The breadfruit formulation containing breadfruit flour (BF) and wheat flour (WF). Formula 25% (25% BF 75% WF, 50% (50% BF and WF), 75% (75% BF 25% WF), and 100% BF. The one-way ANOVA was used to compare the content of resistant starch, amylose, and amylopectin among the cookies. Furthermore, the Friedman test was used to analyse the acceptance level of the cookies, which includes colour, odour, texture, and flavour. The cookies contain 19.38-20.51% of resistant starch, 13.55-16.60% of amylose, and 83.39- 86.44% of amylopectin. The highest resistant starch and amylose contents were found in cookies with 100% breadfruit flour content, while the highest amylopectin content was found in the 25% formulation. The acceptability level of the cookies included colour, odour, texture, and flavour. Cookies made with 100% breadfruit flour contained the highest resistant starch and amylose, but the lowest amylopectin. It also received the highest acceptability among the panellists.
