Background: To determine the prevalence of HU in Indian subjects attending the HU screening camps and in subjects with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM), Hypertension (HTN), and T2DM+HTN.Methods: This was a retrospective, non-interventional study where medical records of subjects attending HU screening camps across 592 locations in India, between June 2017 to May 2018, were analyzed.Results: A total of 197097 subjects (T2DM: 19.69%; HTN: 14.08%; T2DM+HTN: 21.60%) attended the screening camps. Mean age of the study participants was 48.43±13.38 years (Male: 53.80%). A total of 48606(24.66%) subjects had HU. In the overall population, a higher proportion of subjects with T2DM + HTN (7.36%) had HU in comparison to subjects with T2DM (5.63%) and HTN (4.25%) alone. Similar results were reported when the data was evaluated only in HU subjects (T2DM+HTN: 29.85%; T2DM: 22.82%; HTN: 17.22%). Proportion of HU subjects increased with age, with the maximum prevalence evident in subjects aged >50 years (12.94%), followed by 30-50 years (10.65%) and <30 years (1.07%). Gender-wise, a slightly higher proportion of males (14.13%) were found to be hyperuricemic than females (10.53%). Higher proportion of subjects with disease (T2DM and/or HTN) duration of 2-5 years were found to be hyperuricemic in comparison with subjects with disease duration of >5 years or <2 years. Similar results were reported when the data was evaluated in the overall HU subjects and by indication.Conclusions: Authors observed a high prevalence of HU among subjects attending HU camps and those with associated comorbidities. The prevalence of HU was higher in males and has an increasing trend with age. Furthermore, the prevalence of HU was observed to be higher in subjects with 2-5 years of duration of T2DM and/or HTN.

ABSTRACT Objective: to investigate the association between resilience and sociodemographic variables and the health of people with chronic kidney disease and / or type 2 diabetes mellitus. Method: a cross-sectional observational study performed with 603 people with chronic kidney disease and / or type 2 diabetes mellitus. A tool to collect socio-demographic and health data and the Resilience Scale developed by Connor and Davidson were applied. A descriptive and multivariate analysis was performed. Results: the study participants had on average 61 years old (SD= 13.2), with a stable union (52.24%), religion (96.7%), retired (49.09%), with primary education (65%) and income up to three minimum wages. Participants with kidney disease showed less resilience than people with diabetes. Conclusion: the type of chronic illness, disease duration, body mass index and religious beliefs influenced the resilience of the study participants.

Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic condition with an impairing effect on multiple organs. Numerous respiratory disorders have been observed in patients with T2DM. However, T2DM e ect on pulmonary function is ff inconclusive. Aims: In this study, we investigated the effect of T2DM on respiratory function and the correlation of glycemic control, diabetes duration and insulin intake. Methods: 1500 patients were recruited for this study, 560 having T2DM for at least a year were included in the final data, in addition to 540 healthy volunteers. Forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory flow at 25-75% (FEF 25-75%), as well as FEV1/FVC ratio values were measured. Results: A two-sample t-test showed that z-scores produced by Al-Qerem et al.’s equations for FEV1, FVC, and FEF 25-75% were significantly lower for the T2DM group than the control group (p < 0.01). FEV1/FVC ratio in T2DM group were significantly higher (p < 0.01). Multiple linear regression analysis found that glycemic control represented by HbA1c as well as disease duration were negatively associated with pulmonary function (p < 0.01). However, insulin intake was found to have no significant correlation with the pulmonary function. Conclusion: T2DM was linked to reduced pulmonary function and was consistent with a restrictive ventilation pattern. HbA1c as well as disease duration were independent risk factors for reduced pulmonary function.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus with chronic hyperglycemia can cause a hypoxic environment in the renal interstitium and can cause kidney disorders (diabetic nephropathy), this can lead to decreased kidney function and the production of erythropoietin produced by peritubular fibroblasts is disrupted, and hemoglobin is not formed optimally and occurs anemia. Thei purposei ofi thisi studyi wasi toi determinei hemoglobini levelsi in patients withi typei 2i diabetesi mellitusi in RSUD. K.R.M.T Wongsonegoro Semarang. This is a descriptive quantitative study, the data comes from the medical records of patients with typei 2i diabetesi mellitusi withi complicationsi ofi diabetici nephropathyi at RSUD K.R.M.T Wongsonegoro Semarang as many as 40 samples with non-probability samplingi itechnique. The results showed that there were 20 men who had decreased hemoglobin levels and 1 person who had normal hemoglobin levels. Meanwhile, in women, 17 people had decreased hemoglobin levels and 2 people had normal hemoglobin levels. Based on the age category, the most were the early elderly as many as 15 people and the least in the late teens and early adults each as many as 2 people. Meanwhile, based on the average level of anemia, more experienced moderate levels of anemia. Hemoglobin levels in patients with type. 2i. diabetesi. mellitusi. withi. complicationsi. ofi. diabetici. nephropathyi. at RSUD K.R.M.T Wongsonegoro Semarang were 40 samples, on average they had low hemoglobin levels.

Introduction: Hearing impairment due to cochlear damage is one complication of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DM2). Objective: This study aims to determine the relationship between duration of DM2 with hearing impairment.Method: The analytic observasional study with the cross sectional design using the medical record of DM2 outpatient in internal clinic of Islamic Sultan Agung Hospital Semarang and also pure tone audiometric examination’s record in Otorynolaryngology clinic of Islamic Sultan Agung Hospital Semarang.31 medical records of DM2 patients were meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The data consist of 18 medical records of patients with less than6 years duration of DM2, and 13 medical records of patients with more than 6 years duration of DM2. The pure tone audiometry was used to classified the hearing impairment. The data analysis was conducted using SPSS 20.0. The correlation between the duration of DM2 and hearing impairment was analyzed using Chi Square test. The significance relation between the duration of DM type 2 and hearing impairment was analyzed using cooficient contigency, with significance of < 0.05. Result: hearing impairment’s distribution frequency on tested ears in Sultan agung Islamic Hospital Semarang were 27 ears having SNHL type (43,5%), 19 ears having CHL (30,6%) and 16 ears were normal (25,8%), p = 0,02 (p < 0,05). Conclusion: There is a weak correlation between the DM 2 duration and the incidence of hearing impairment in Sultan Agung Islamic Hospital Semarang.
