Background: The number of people with diabetes mellitus in Indonesia is increasing every year. The data in 2016 showed that 1 of 11 adults could have diabetes mellitus. Uncontrolled and untreated diabetes mellitus can cause complications. Objectives: This activity aimed to determine the group of age that have a potential risk of hypertension and diabetes so that it could minimize the prevalence of disease and optimize human productivity. Methods: (1) Counseling about hypertension and diabetes, (2) Screening the people with a potential risk of hypertension using tensimeter and diabetes prediction using point-of-care testing (POCT) and urine dipstick. Results: The data were collected from 75 respondents with characteristics about 85,33% female and 14,67% male. About 25 respondents (33,33%) were suspected of hypertension. Based on age group, it showed that the highest incident rate of hypertension was found in the age group of 41-60 years (41,86%), followed by the age group of 61-80 years (20%), 21-40 years (13,33%), and age under 20 years and above 80 years (0%). The majority of respondents had a normal glucose level(90,67%). Based on gender, there was 1 male respondent (9,09%)and5female respondents  (7,81%) having a glucose level higher than normal value (hyperglycemia). Conclusion:  The age group with the highest potential risk for hypertension was 41-60 years, while for diabetes was 61-80 years. This activity provided information to prevent the potential risk leading to hypertension and diabetes.

The present multi-center non-randomized open prospective phase IV study was carried out based at 8 clinical centers of the Russian Federation. It included 89 patients at the age from 6 to 17 years suffering from type 1 diabetes mellitus during a period over 1 year. The children treated with Lantus (insulin glargin) in combination with any short-acting insulin in accordance with the basal-bolus regime and having the HbA1c level from=>8% to =<10% were transferred to Apidra (insulin glulisine) therapy in combination with Lantus insulin. The number of patients in the first age group (6-12 years) having the HbA1c level <8% within 12 months after the onset of therapy was 51.1%. However, only 31.1% of them, did not experience episodes of symptomatic hypoglycemia during this period with the blood glucose level =< 3.1 mmol/l. In the age group 2 (13-17 years), 31.1% of the patients reached the target HbA1c level <7.5% during the 12 month treatment period, but only 13.3% had no episodes of symptomatic hypoglycemia of =<3.1 mmol/l during this period. The HbA1c level in groups 1 and 2 decreased from 8.75±0.6 to 8.05 ±1.06% (p=0.046658) and from 8.77±0.58 to 7.96±1.12% (p=0.017533) respectively. The requirements for insulin in either group did not significantly change throughout the study period. A total of 1866 hypoglycemic episodes were recorded (i.e. 20.73 episodes per patient) including 90.8% of daytime and 9.2% of nocturnal hypoglycemia; symptomatic hypoglycemia accounted for 98.8% of all the cases and asymptomatic one for 1.2%. Fifty three (0.35%) cases were interpreted as severe hypoglycemia (blood glucose level ≤2 mmol/l), five (0.27%) patients had to be hospitalized . Hypoglycemic episodes were not documented in 13 children.

Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease that through its complications can seriously impact the quality of life of an individual. The incidence of diabetes mellitus is starting to rise at a younger age. This study is carried out to determine the prevalence of diagnosed diabetes mellitus in productive aged persons and to study the association of socio-demographic characteristics, body mass index (BMI) and blood pressure among persons with and without diabetes mellitus. A community-based cross-sectional, observational study was conducted in Makalbari area. Systematic random sampling technique was used to select the households. The family members from those households who met the inclusion criteria were interviewed with self-constructed semi-structured questionnaire which included socio-demographic information of respondents. Height, weight and blood pressure were recorded. BMI was interpreted as per WHO guidelines and hypertension was defined as per Joint National Committee (JNC) VII guidelines. Among total 662 participants, 342 (51.7%) were female and 320 (48.3%) were male. About 196 (29.6%) of subjects were between 25 to 34 age group followed by 145(21.9%) of them in 35 to 44 age group. Prevalence of diagnosed diabetes mellitus in productive aged persons in urban area was 3.8%. The prevalence of BMI of ≥25 was 42.4%. Out of total subjects, maximum number of respondents were prehypertensive 406 (61.3%). Mean age of total participants was 37.9±13.59 and BMI was 24.15±3.89.The age of respondents was highly statistically significant among the persons with diabetes (p = 0.000). The number of diabetes mellitus increased with increase in age and BMI of the participants. Prevalence of diabetes mellitus was almost same in both male 13 (52.0%) and female 12 (48.0%). Diabetes mellitus was seen more in subjects who had completed secondary level education 11 (44.0%) and in homemakers and government job holders, 3 (33.3%) each. In conclusion, most of the people in productive age groups were preobese and were in prehypertensive stage which may increase the risk of acquiring diabetes mellitus in future. This necessitates the screening of more persons in productive age group for diabetes mellitus.

In this investigation, a comparative study of the transmitted two dimensional16 Mueller polarization matrix element images, based upon the measurement of the glucose concentration in an aqueous humor sample using a polarimeter have been reported. The glucose solution and aqueous humor have been illuminated with a He-Ne (632.8 nm) laser in the vitro measurement. It is concluded that the images obtained by transmitted Mueller polarization matrix in forward direction are capable of giving information about the variation in polarization patterns to measure normal glucose level, impaired fasting glycaemia (IFG), impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and diabetes mellitus.

Background and Purpose: Hyperglycemia is reported to be associated with poor outcome in patients with spontaneous Intracerebral Hemorrhage (ICH), but the association between blood glucose level and outcomes in Primary Intraventricular Hemorrhage (PIVH) remains unclear. We sought to identify the parameters associated with admission hyperglycemia and analyze the impact of hyperglycemia on clinical outcome in patients with PIVH. Methods: Patients admitted to Department of Neurosurgery, West China Hospital with PIVH between 2010 and 2016 were retrospectively included in our study. Clinical, radiographic, and laboratory data were collected. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify independent predictors of poor outcomes. Results: One hundred and seventy patients were included in the analysis. Mean admission blood glucose level was 7.78±2.73 mmol/L and 10 patients (5.9%) had a history of diabetes mellitus. History of diabetes mellitus (P = 0.01; Odds Ratio [OR], 9.10; 95% Confidence Interval [CI], 1.64 to 50.54) was independent predictor of admission critical hyperglycemia defined at 8.17 mmol/L. Patients with admission critical hyperglycemia poorer outcome at discharge (P < 0.001) and 90 days (P < 0.001). After adjustment, admission blood glucose was significantly associated with discharge (P = 0.01; OR, 1.30; 95% CI, 1.06 to 1.59) and 90-day poor outcomes (P = 0.03; OR, 1.27; 95% CI, 1.03 to 1.58), as well as mortality at 90 days (P = 0.005; OR, 1.41; 95% CI, 1.11 to 1.78). In addition, admission critical hyperglycemia showed significantly increased the incidence rate of pneumonia in PIVH (P = 0.02; OR, 6.04; 95% CI 1.27 to 28.80) even after adjusting for the confounders. Conclusion: Admission blood glucose after PIVH is associated with discharge and 90-day poor outcomes, as well as mortality at 90 days. Admission hyperglycemia significantly increases the incidence rate of pneumonia in PIVH.
