Introduction: Diabetes is a very prevalent problem in Pakistan. Depression along with diabetes affects not only quality of life but compliance and management of patient. Various studies have found high prevalence of depression among T2DM depression. In our study we shall determine the prevalence of depression among T2DM patients in Pakistan. Period: May 2017 to December 2017. Objectives: The objective of this study was to find out the prevalence of depression in Type2 diabetes mellitus patients. Study Design: A cross-sectional study. Setting: Jinnah Post Graduate Medical Centre Karachi. Results: Mean PHQ- Score is 10.83±5.6. 81.9% had PHQ Score > 4. According to PHQ-9 scale, 18.1% (n=30) had no depression, 26.5% (n=44) had moderately severe depression and 3.6% (n=6) had severe depression. In our study females had more severe depression in comparison with male (5.2% vs. 0%). Conclusion: Depression is very common in Pakistan among Type 2 Diabetic patients. Antidepressant has key role to break the vicious cycle of depression and type2 diabetes mellitus diabetes.

INTRODUCTION: Diabetes Mellitus is a major public health concern worldwide. Global burden of diabetes is increasing at an alarming rate. The lack of awareness among population is the major cause of the disease burden as well as its complications. According to the Global Burden Disease Study, the prevalence of diabetes mellitus (DM) in India was 31.7 million in the year 2010, and the prevalence is expected to upsurge to 79.4 million 1 by the year 2030. AIMS AND OBJECTIVES:To assess the awareness level of Diabetic Retinopathy among the diabetic individuals. To increase the level of awareness regarding one of the leading causes of blindness among population and thereby minimizing the sight threatening complication of Diabetes. METHODOLOGY Study design/ Experiment design:Institution based cross-sectional study. Study setting and timelines:All patients who fulll the inclusion criterias, presented to the Out Patient Department of RIO, Kolkata in a time span of 18 months were taken for study with their informed consent. Apre-tested interviewer-administered KAPquestionnaire was asked to the patients. Eyes were examined by slit lamp biomicroscope, detailed posterior segment examination by +90D lens and indirect ophthalmoscope to detect diabetic retinopathy. Period of study:January 2019 - June 2020 Study population: 200 patients RESULT AND ANALYSIS:We found in Knowledge about DR Present, 7(21.2%) patients were Female and 26(78.8%) patients were Male. Association of Gender vs Knowledge about DR was statistically signicant (p=0.0017). In Knowledge about DR present, 4(12.1%) patients had DM 1 and 29(87.9%) patients had DM 2. Association of Type of DM vs Knowledge about DR was statistically signicant (p<0.0001). SUMMARYAND CONCLUSION:In Knowledge about effect of DM on eyesight present, 119(90.8%) patients were having duration of diabetes for 10-20yrs and 12(9.2%) patients were having duration >20yrs which was statistically signicant. It was found that Education Level was signicantly associated with Knowledge about effect of DM on eyesight as well as with Knowledge about Diabetic Retinopathy. 33(25.2%) patients had both Knowledge about DR and Knowledge about effect of DM on eyesight. Association of Knowledge about DR with Frequency of eye check-up was statistically signicant

Type2 diabetes mellitus is associated with central obesity. Studies shows that central obesity, leads to insulin resistance is an important determinant for insulin resistance and cardiovascular morbidity. In the present study clinical profile of type2 diabetics with special reference to cardiac changes were studied and their relationship were established. This is a prospective cross-sectional study conducted in Sree Balaji Medical College and Hospital. 50 obese patients with controlled diabetes less than 5 years of duration were compared with obese non diabetics. There is significant statistical correlation with obese diabetic subjects particularly females, alterations in LV geometry. Obese female subjects had predominantly higher left ventricular mass. From the data of the present study high BMI, WHR have increased incidence of cardiovascular disease.

Objetivo: Determinar o perfil epidemiológico dos pacientes com Doença Renal Crônica em tratamento conservador no ambulatório do Hospital Escola de Itajubá. Materiais e Métodos: Estudo descritivo, de corte transversal, de abordagem quantitativa. Realizado com 171 pacientes atendidos em tratamento conservador no ambulatório de nefrologia no período de janeiro de 2012 a dezembro de 2013. A coleta objetivou caracterizar idade, sexo, raça, estado civil e procedência. Também foram avaliados dados do primeiro atendimento como: valores de ureia e creatinina, o grau de DRC, a etiologia e o número de retorno. Resultados: Dos doentes renais crônicos avaliados, 50,3% eram do sexo masculino, 88% da raça branca, 54,4% casados e a maioria (70,8%) possuía faixa etária prevalente >60 anos. A maioria dos atendidos, 98,5% pertence a microrregião de referência. Quanto a dados de primeira consulta, o diabetes mellitus foi a principal etiologia (38%). Os valores de ureia e creatinina acima da referência preconizada foi observado na maioria dos pacientes e o grau III de DRC em 31% dos casos. O número médio de retornos após a primeira consulta foi de três retornos em 25,13% dos pacientes. Conclusão: A pesquisa permitiu o conhecimento do perfil epidemiológico dos portadores de DRC em tratamento conservador. Os achados reforçam a necessidade de implementação de políticas voltadas para promoção e prevenção à saúde com divulgação de mais programas de controle para minimizar o surgimento de novos casos da DRC. Palavras-chave: Epidemiologia.

Materials and Methods: A retrospective, descriptive, cross-sectional study of quantitative approach. It was conducted with 171 patients who were treated in conservative treatment at the nephrology clinic from January 2012 to December 2013. The collection aimed to characterize age, sex, race, marital status and origin. We also evaluated data from the first service as: urea and creatinine values, the degree of CKD the etiology and the number of return. Results: Among the chronic renal patients evaluated, 50.3% were male, 88% Caucasian, 54.4% were married and the majority (70.8%) was the most prevalent age group> 60 years. Most of the patients 98.5% belong to micro region of reference. As the first appointment data, diabetes mellitus was the major cause (38%). The urea and creatinine values above the recommended reference was observed in the majority of patients and the DRC grade III in 31% of cases. The average number of returns after the fisrt visit was three return in 25.13% of patients. Conclusion: The research gave us the knowledge of the epidemiological profile of patients with CKD on dialysis. The findings reinforce the need to implement policies for health promotion and prevention with more disclosure of control programs to minimize the appearance of new cases of CKD. Keywords: Epidemiology.

ObjectiveThe objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of secondhand smoke (SHS) exposure during childhood on type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypertension, hyperlipidaemia and coronary heart disease among Chinese non-smoking women.MethodsIn this cross-sectional study, the SHS exposure data in childhood were obtained using a questionnaire survey. Self-reported childhood SHS exposure was defined as the presence of at least one parent who smoked during childhood.ResultsOf the 6522 eligible participants, 2120 Chinese women who had never smoked were assessed. The prevalence of SHS exposure in the entire population was 28.1% (596). SHS exposure during childhood was not significant for the standard risk factors of type 2 diabetes mellitus (p=0.628) and hypertension (p=0.691). However, SHS was positively associated with hyperlipidaemia (p=0.037) after adjusting for age, obesity, education status, physical activity, alcohol consumption, current SHS exposure status, diabetes mellitus and hypertension. In addition, childhood SHS increased the occurrence of coronary heart disease (p=0.045) among non-smokers after further adjusting for hyperlipidaemia.ConclusionSHS exposure during childhood is associated with prevalent hyperlipidaemia and coronary heart disease in adulthood among non-smoking Chinese women.
