Diabetes mellitus [DM] is a major disease worldwide with increasing prevalence. Its etiologic heterogeneity comprising genetic predisposition and environmental factors may provide a characteristic feature among the population helpful for the early diagnosis. This study aims to evaluate the palmar dermatoglyphic patterns in DM patients. This case controlled cross-sectional study included 100 type 2 DM patients in group A and 100 healthy subjects in group B. Each group has equal gender distribution. The palmar dermatoglyphics were evaluated quantitatively using standard methods. Student’s t-test and Chi-square test was used to determine the level of significance. The palmar triradius number varied significantly (Pd”0.0001). The angle of palm variations were statistically insignificant between groups, but TAD angle showed significant gender variations in group A patients (Pd”0.0001). The variation in palmar triradius revealed in this study may help in early diagnosis of type 2 DM patients and also may provide a scope for further studies with larger sample size.

Abstract Aim Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a major long-term complication of diabetes mellitus (DM). Given the paucity of data on DKD in Jordan, we aimed to evaluate the prevalence, characteristics and correlates of DKD in Jordanian patients with type 2 DM. Methods This cross-sectional study included 1398 adult patients with type 2 DM who sought medical advice in the endocrinology clinic between March and September 2019. Demographic, clinical and laboratory data were reviewed. DKD was defined as reduced eGFR, and/or albuminuria. Three regression models were constructed to identify factors associated with CKD stages, albuminuria and DKD. Results Overall, 701 (50.14%) patients had DKD, with a median age of 59.71 ± 11.36  years. Older age, high triglycerides, and low high-density lipoprotein were associated with DKD (multivariable odds ratio [OR]: 1.02, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.01–1.03, p < 0.01; OR: 1.1, 95% CI: 1.01–1.2; and OR: 0.98, 95% CI: 0.97–0.99, p < 0.01 respectively). Metformin and renin-angiotensin system blockers were negatively associated with albuminuria and chronic kidney disease stages (p < 0.01). Conclusion Our study demonstrated that approximately one half of patients with type 2 DM had DKD. Further studies are necessary to understand this high prevalence and the underlying factors. Future research are needed to assess implementing targeted community-based intervention.

Diabetes mellitus (DM) and thyroid disease are the two most common endocrine disorders in the general population. Several Studies have shown that thyroid dysfunction is common in patients with DM, and thyroid dysfunction have been found to have a considerable impact on the glycaemic control and often increases the risk of development of long-term complications in patients with diabetes mellitus. This study determined the prevalence of thyroid dysfunction in patients with type 2 DM in Kano, North-Western Nigeria. The study was a descriptive cross-sectional study conducted on 250 participants made up of 130 patients with type 2 DM and 120 apparently healthy non-diabetic controls. Questionnaires were used to collect information on bio data, medical history, duration of diagnosis of diabetes and type of treatment. Also, blood samples of the participants were collected and analyzed for fasting plasma glucose, fT3, fT4, and TSH. The results were interpreted using American Thyroid Associations’ criteria and the data was analyzed using the statistical software package, STATA version 20. Two hundred and thirty-four (93.6%) of the participants were euthyroid while sixteen (6.4%) were found to have various forms of thyroid dysfunction. The prevalence of thyroid dysfunction was 10% and 2.5% among type 2 diabetics and controls respectively. Among the type 2 DM patients with thyroid dysfunction, 38.5% had hypothyroidism. Thyroid dysfunction was found to be commoner among type 2 DM patients than non-diabetic individuals with hypothyroidism being the commonest disorder.

Prevalence Of Diabetes Mellitus

Background: The prevalence of diabetes mellitus in the world has increased which is certainly accompanied by a rapid increase in the incidence of its chronic complications like kidney disorders. Insulin resistance, the patophysiology of diabetes mellitus, also associated with obesity, which both are the main risk factors for cardiovascular events. Obesity also known as a risk factor for kidney disease that proved by the presence of proteinuria in obesity patients. Objective: To determine the correlation of obesity with occurrence of proteinuria in patients with type 2 DM in internal medicine polyclinic Ibnu Sina Hospital Makassar. Method: A cross sectional study on 32 type 2 DM patients at Ibnu Sina Hospital as measured by body weight, height and waist circumference. Urinalysis examination is also performed at that time. Results: In this study, there were 4 patients (12,5%) patients with proteinuria (+), 1 patient (3.1%) with proteinuria (++), 2 patients (6.3%) with proteinuria (+++) and 1 patient (3.1%) with proteinuria (++++). According to BMI, we found that 17 patients (53.1%) were overweight,  5 patients (15.6%) were class 1 obesity, no class 2 obesity patient, and 1 patients (3.1%) were class 3 obesity. In Waist circumference examination we found that  in normal waist circumference group there is 1 patient that did not has proteinuria while in the  abnormal waist circumference group, 8 patients out of 31 patients have proteinuria. After doing statistical analysis to assess the correlation of obesity with proteinuria obtained p value> 0.05. Similarly, the correlation analysis waist circumference with proteinuria obtained p value> 0.05. Conclusion: There is no correlation between obesity and proteinuria as well as waist circumference and proteinuria correlation in type 2 DM patients.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the association between usual physical activity and 24 h blood pressure (BP) profile in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). This is a cross-sectional study of 151 participants with type 2 DM. Usual physical activity was assessed by step counting and self-reported questionnaire. BP was measured in office and by 24 h ambulatory BP monitoring (ABPM; 24 h, daytime and nighttime). Mean participant age was 61.1 ± 8.4 years, 64% was women, and mean duration of diabetes was 14.3 ± 8.5 years. Ninety-two percent of participants had hypertension, and office BP was 138 ± 18/78 ± 10 mmHg. Inverse correlations were observed between step count and 24 h BP (systolic, r=−0.186; p=0.022), daytime BP (systolic, r=−0.198; p=0.015), and nighttime BP (pulse pressure, r=−0.190; p=0.019). People were categorized into tertiles of daily step count, and the 1st tertile had higher 24 h systolic BP, daytime systolic BP, daytime mean BP, and daytime systolic BP load than those in the other tertiles, even after adjusting for age and HbA1c. Participants with type 2 DM and low levels of physical activity exhibit higher 24 h and daytime systolic ambulatory BP values as compared with those who performed more steps per day, even after adjustments for confounding factors.

Aim. A cross-sectional study was performed to examine the alterations of the retinal pigment epithelium– (RPE–) photoreceptor complex layer in type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) without diabetic retinopathy (DR), using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT). Methods. Patients with type 2 DM without DR and healthy controls without DM were recruited. All participants underwent examinations including SD-OCT. The thickness measurements of the retinal neural layers were calculated after automatic segmentation. An independent-sample t-test was used to compare the means of the thickness of retinal neural layers in patients with DM and healthy controls. Results. Sixty-seven eyes from 67 patients with DM and 30 eyes from 30 healthy controls were included in this study. No significant differences were found in age (P = 0.601), gender (P = 0.560), axial length (P = 0.414), best-corrected visual acuity (P = 0.963), or intraocular pressure (P = 0.112) between the two groups. There were significant increases in the hemoglobin A1c value (P < 0.001) and mean thicknesses of the RPE–photoreceptor complex layer in the foveal area (P = 0.027) and paracentral area (P = 0.001) in the DM group compared to the control group, whereas the thickness of the retinal nerve fiber and ganglion cell layers in the foveal and paracentral areas between the two groups showed no significant differences. Conclusion. Lesions in the RPE–photoreceptor complex are present without vascular abnormalities, which may precede the alterations of ganglion cells in patients with type 2 DM.

Introduction and Aims : Untransmitted diseases is the leading cause of death globally. Diabetes mellitus is one of the four priorities of untransmitted diseases. This disease is a chronic disease characterized by blood glucose levels that exceed normal values. High blood sugar levels (hyperglycemia) will cause various complications, one of which is chronic complications that can attack various organs such as eyes, kidneys, nerves and blood vessels. This study aims to find out the correlation between the results of the examination of HbA1c, urea and creatinine levels which is an indicator of complications of Chronic Kidney Failure in Type 2 DM patients. Methods : This research is a survey research using cross-sectional study design. The respondents in this study are Type 2 DM patients who filled out the questionnaire and examined levels of HbA1c, ureum, and creatinine. Analysis of the data performed by using the SPEARMEN test SPSS for Windows 17. Result : The result of the SPEARMEN analysis is p = 0,016 (p < 0.05) which means there is a relationship between the levels of HbA1c with age of respondent. Meanwhile, p = 0,84 (p>0,05) which means there is no relationship between HbA1c levels of type 2 DM with urea levels of type 2 DM patients. While, there is no relationship between HbA1c levels of type 2 DM with creatinine levels of type 2 DM with p = 0.693 (p > 0,05). Conclusions : There is a correlation between HbA1c levels of type 2 diabetes mellitus with the age of the respondent, but there is no correlation between HbA1c levels of type 2 diabetes mellitus with ureum levels of type 2 diabetes mellitus and there is no correlation between HbA1c levels with Creatinine levels of  type 2 diabetes mellitus patients.

Objective: The aim of this study is to determine the frequency of peripheral neuropathy in newly diagnosed cases of type II diabetes mellitus. Study Design: Cross Sectional Study. Setting: Department of Medicine at Avicenna Medical & Dental College, Lahore. Period: 1st February 2020 to 31st July 2020. Material & Methods: One hundred and twenty newly diagnosed patients of type 2 diabetes mellitus were enrolled in this study. Patients detailed demographically recorded after getting written consent. Patients were diagnosed for the duration of 4-weeks and calculated fasting blood sugar (FBS) of ≥126mg/dl, and Random Blood Sugar (RBS) of ≥200 mg/dl or HbA1c ≤6.5. Results: Seventy (58.3%) were males and rest 50 (41.7%) were females with mean age 37.15±10.91 years. Mean body mass index of the patients was 22.48±3.66 kg/m2. Forty two (35%) patients had symptoms of peripheral neuropathy while that patient’s who did not have any symptom was 78 (65%). Same symptoms were observed within 4-weeks and we noticed that 23 (19.2%) patients showed peripheral neuropathy and rest 97 (80.8%) patients did not have any symptoms. Conclusion: The frequency of peripheral neuropathy is higher in early stages of type II diabetes mellitus and its frequency can be reduced to diagnose within a month.

Objective We aimed to evaluate whether traditional and non-traditional adiposity indicators are associated with cardiometabolic risk factors among adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). Methods In this cross-sectional study among 240 inpatients with type 2 DM, we determined traditional anthropometric indicators including body mass index, waist circumference, hip circumference (HC), waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), waist-to-height ratio, and non-traditional anthropometric indicators including lipid accumulation product (LAP), visceral adiposity index (VAI), deep abdominal adipose tissue (DAAT), and Després indices. Lipid profile, fasting blood glucose, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), systolic blood pressure (SBP), and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) were measured to evaluate cardiometabolic parameters. Results In overweight patients, DAAT was positively correlated with total triglycerides. LAP was negatively correlated with serum HDL-C levels. WHR and DAAT were associated with total triglycerides, HbA1c, total cholesterol, total cholesterol/HDL-C, and total triglycerides/HDL-C, after adjustment for age and duration of disease. VAI, DAAT, LAP, and Després index were significant determinants of lipid profile and SBP. Conclusion Traditional and non-traditional anthropometric indices are associated with cardiometabolic risk factors in patients with type 2 DM.
