Background: Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder caused by insufficient insulin production due to pancreatic β cell destruction, whereas in gestational diabetics an increase of hormone estrogen induces insulin resistance. Oral candidiasis constitutes an opportunistic fungal infection due to a compromised immune system that is a medical condition reported by diabetics, including those suffering from gestational diabetes. Purpose: To determine the severity of oral candidiasis in female Wistar rats with type 1 and gestational diabetes mellitus. Methods: This research constituted a laboratory experiment incorporating a post test-only group control design whose subjects were female Wistar rats divided along the following lines: group 1 consisted of diabetic non-pregnant rats, group 2 contained diabetic pregnant rats induced by streptozotocin and the control group members constituted normal female rats. Diabetes induction was performed by means of 40 mg/kgBW streptozotocin administrated intraperitoneally. Diabetes mellitus was confirmed when the blood glucose level ≥ 120 mg/dL. All groups were exposed to 0.2 ml Candida albicans suspension (5x108 CFU/ml) in the oral buccal vestibule between the distal incisors and mesial maxillary first molar for three days. A swab was performed on the third day after final exposure before the samples were observed under a light microscope. Candida albicans cultivation and calculation of the resulting colonies was carried out on Sabouraud Dextrose Agar after they had been identified by means of a germ tube test. Results: The result confirmed the absence of hyphae in the control group, while in group 1 all samples contained hyphae. Moreover, group 2 featured a dense hyphae population. A chi-square test indicated a statistical significance (p<0.05) between all groups. Conclusion: Oral candidiasis in gestational diabetes is more severe than that occurring during type 1 diabetes mellitus.

Background: Changes in the course of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) at the present stage determine the emergence of a certain spectrum of completely new problems associated with the health status of newborns from mothers with GDM. The aim of the study was to investigate early neonatal complications in newborns from mothers with GDM. Methods and Results: The study included 404 pregnant women (gestational age of 37.0–41.0 weeks) with GDM. All patients with GDM were divided into 2 groups. Group 1 included 188 patients receiving insulin therapy; Group 2 included 216 patients receiving a well-balanced diet. The control group (Group 3) consisted of 68 pregnant women without disorders of carbohydrate metabolism. In Group 1, macrosomia occurred in 44(23.4%) newborns, in Group 2 - in 48(22.0%) newborns; in newborns from mothers of the control group, the frequency of macrosomia was only in 7.35% of newborns (P=0.01). Morpho-functional immaturity of newborns had the highest frequency of occurrence, despite the fact that all children were born on time; 80(42.6%) newborns from mothers of Group 1 and 77(35.6%) newborns from mothers of Group 2 had signs of morpho-functional immaturity. Conclusion: Diabetic fetopathy in newborns from mothers with GDM is manifested by morpho-functional immaturity of organs and systems developing in unfavorable hyperglycemic conditions.

This research aimed to examine the time of onset and sedation on diabetic mellitus (DM) rat (Rattus norvegicus) by propofol. This study used 8 female wistar rats 2-3 months old and 150-200 grams of bodyweight, fed with standard feed and water ad libitum. Samples were divided into two groups. Group 1 (KI) as a control group was injected intraperitoneally with aloxan solvent and group 2 (KII) was injected intraperitoneally with 150 mg/kg bodyweight aloxan. Blood glucose was checked 10 days after aloxan injection, DM was categorized if the blood glucose over 150 mg/dl. All rats were injected intravenously with propofol 1% with the dose of 10 mg/kg bodyweight. Onset and sedation time was counted using stopwatch after propofol injection. The result showed that mean (±SD) of onset on KI and KII were 1.39±0.49 and 8.64±1.23 seconds, consecutively and they were significantly different at P0.01. Whilst mean (±SD) of sedation KI and KII were 12.12±1.47 minutes and 7.62±1.61 minutes, respectively. The onset and sedation time of KI was significantly different from KII P0.01. The conclusion of this research was DM affects time of onset and sedation when wistar strain rats were anesthetized by 1% propofol.Key words: rats, diabetic mellitus, propofol, onset, sedation

Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the anxiety levels of pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) followed by different treatment methods. Methods Our study was carried out with 141 cases whose pregnancy follow ups were made in Gynecology and Obstetrics Clinic. Cases which had GDM screening with 75-g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) were divided into 3 groups. Group 1 (control group) consisted of 50 cases with 75-g OGTT results in normal range, Group 2 consisted of 50 cases which had significant 75-g OGTT results and followed up by diet (A1), and Group 3 consisted of 41 cases which were diagnosed with GDM as a result of 75-g OGTT and received diet as well as medical therapy (A2). Beck anxiety inventory (BAI) was administered to the patients in Group 1 in 24th week, and to patients in Groups 2 and 3 in the 24th and 32nd weeks. Results In the first evaluation of the patients, BAI scores of the control group were statistically found to be significantly lower than the patients with GDM (p=0.001). There was no significant difference in BAI scores among patients diagnosed with GDM, and high anxiety scores were found in both groups. There was a significant decrease in anxiety levels in the Groups 2 and 3 after the treatment (p<0.01). In the Group 2, the BAI scores were observed to decrease from 51.76±4.47 to 45.62±3.65, and from 51.73±5.27 to 41.48±3.29 in the Group 3 (p<0.001). Conclusion In addition to the metabolic disorders brought by the disease itself, GDM can cause various problems by increasing the levels of anxiety in patients. With an effective treatment for glycemic control, anxiety levels of patients can be reduced.

We investigated the question of how serum zonulin levels change in intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and, in the case of the coexistence of ICP and GDM, evaluated the eventual increase in zonulin plasmatic levels. Participants were enrolled for the study between 25 February 2021 and 20 August 2021. The prospective case-control study included: group 1 of 95 pregnant women diagnosed with ICP; group 2 of 110 pregnant women diagnosed with GDM; group 3 of 16 women diagnosed with both GDM and ICP; group 4 of 136 healthy pregnant women as the control group. The groups were compared in terms of age, body mass index (BMI), gravidity, parity, gestational week of delivery, plasma zonulin levels, delivery type, birth weight, first- and fifth-minute APGAR scores, newborn intensive care unit (NICU) admission, and meconium staining of amniotic fluid parameters. The results suggested that the plasma zonulin levels of ICP (group 1), GDM (group 2), and GDM with ICP (group 3) patients were higher than those of the healthy pregnant women of group 4 (p < 0.001). Among the patient groups, the highest median plasma zonulin levels were found in group 3 (110.33 ng/mL). Zonulin levels were also associated with the severity of ICP and adverse pregnancy outcomes. High serum zonulin levels were related to GDM, ICP, and adverse perinatal outcomes. The coexistence of GDM and ICP led to higher serum zonulin concentrations.

Введение. Сосудистые осложнения сахарного диабета (СД) являются одной из ведущих причин повышения смертности пациентов трудоспособного возраста. Предполагается, что индуцированный гипергликемией окислительный стресс и нарушение антиоксидантной защиты играют роль в патологическом механизме повреждения сосудов, частично за счет влияния оксида азота (NО). Цель исследования: уточнение взаимосвязей в системах асимметричного диметиларгинина (АДМА) и NO у пациентов с цереброваскулярными заболеваниями (ЦВЗ) на фоне СД 2-го типа (СД-2). Материалы и методы. Обследованы 72 пациента с ЦВЗ со стенозирующим поражением внутренней сонной артерии вне острого периода: группу 1 составили 39 пациентов (18 мужчин и 21 женщина) с СД-2 в возрасте 65 [58; 72] лет; в группу 2 вошли 33 больных (15 мужчин и 18 женщин) без СД-2 в возрасте 66 [56; 74] лет. Контрольную группу составили 30 добровольцев (16 мужчин и 14 женщин) без проявлений церебральной ишемии и нарушений углеводного обмена, с нормальными значениями индекса массы тела, некурящие, в возрасте 62 [50; 66] лет. Проводилось клиническое обследование, нейро- и ангиовизуализационное исследование, спектр биохимических исследований крови, в том числе определение содержания АДМА и показателей системы NO. Результаты. В группе 1 содержание нитрата, нитрита и NO составило 62,1 [56; 68] мкмоль/л, 48,5 [26; 52] мкмоль/л и 13,6 [9; 23] мкмоль/л соответственно, что достоверно отличалось от значений этих показателей в группе 2 — 58,3 [45; 64] мкмоль/л, 39,6 [26,0; 42,3] мкмоль/л и 18,7 [16,1; 24,7] мкмоль/л соответственно. Отмечен также более высокий уровень AДМА в крови у пациентов с ЦВЗ в сочетании с СД-2 — 0,42 [0,21; 0,53] ммоль/л. Заключение. Обнаружена взаимосвязь между уровнями AДМА и NO при ЦВЗ на фоне СД-2. Это требует продолжения исследований биомаркеров повреждения сосудистой стенки для определения их места в патогенезе ишемических церебральных осложнений СД-2. Background. Vascular complications of diabetes mellitus (DM) are one of the leading causes of increased mortality in patients of employable age. Hyperglycemia-induced oxidative stress and impaired antioxidant protection have been suggested to play a role in the pathological mechanism of vascular damage, in part due to the effects of nitric oxide (NO). Objectives: clarification of relationships in the systems of asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) and NO in patients with cerebrovascular diseases (CVD) and type 2 diabetes (DM-2). Patients/Methods. We examined 72 CVD patients with stenosing lesions of the internal carotid artery outside the acute period: group 1 consisted of 39 patients (18 men and 21 women; 65 [58; 72] years old) with DM-2; group 2 consisted of 33 patients (15 men and 18 women; 66 [56; 74] years old) without DM-2. The control group consisted of 30 volunteers (16 men and 14 women; 62 [50; 66] years old) without manifestations of cerebral ischemia and carbohydrate metabolism disorders, with normal body mass index, non-smokers. A clinical examination, neuro- and angio-imaging study, a spectrum of biochemical blood tests, including the concentration of asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) and indicators of NO system were carried out. Results. In group 1, the content of nitrate, nitrite and NO was 62.1 [56; 68] μmol/l, 48.5 [26; 52] μmol/l and 13.6 [9; 23] μmol/l, respectively, that significantly differed from the content of these parameters in group 2 — 58.3 [45; 64] μmol/l, 39.6 [26.0; 42.3] μmol/l and 18.7 [16.1; 24.7] μmol/l, respectively. Noted also a higher blood level of ADMA in patients with CVD combined with DM-2 — 0.42 [0.21; 0.53] mmol/l. Conclusions. A relationship was found between ADMA and NO levels in CVD patients with DM-2. This requires further studies of biomarkers of vascular wall damage to determine their place in the pathogenesis of ischemic cerebral complications of DM-2.

Abstract. INFLUENCE OF HORMONAL DISORDERS ON ENDOTHELIAL DYSFUNCTION IN PATIENTS WITH ARTERIAL HYPERTENSION AND COMORBIDE ENDOCRINOPATHIES Bilovol O.M., Nemtsova V.D., Ilchenko I.A., Zlatkina V.V. Purpose: to investigate the effect of hormonal changes on endothelial dysfunction (ED) in patients with a comorbid course of hypertension (H), type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and subclinical hypothyroidism (SHT). Methods: 183 patients with  H stage II were divided into 3 groups: Group 1 (n=50) - with isolated H (comparison group); Group 2 (n=63) - with a combined course of H and T2DM; Group 3 (n=70) - with comorbidity of H, T2DM and SHT. Blood pressure levels, carbohydrate, lipid and thyroid metabolism, plasma insulin concentration, insulin resistance (IR) the HOMA-IR index, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF-A) plasma levels were investigated. Results: Dyslipidemia was more pronounced in group 2 than in group 1. The addition of SHT was accompanied by a tendency to increase all the atherogenic lipids. IR was observed in all patients groups and was significantly higher than in control group (p<0.05). Significant increase of VEGF-A levels in all patients groups in comparison with the control (p<0.05) was found. In group 2 VEGF-A was lower than in group 1, which is probably due to the protective effect of metformin. Analysis  of the influence of thyroid dysfunction degree on ED revealed significant increase of VEGF-A levels in TSH>6.0 μMU/ml subgroup (352.55±17.64 pg/ml vs 461.74±20.13 pg/ml (p<0.05)). Conclusion: Hormonal disorders contribute to aggravation of endothelial dysfunction in patients with hypertension and comorbid endocrinopathies - type 2 diabetes mellitus and subclinical hypothyroidism. Even minor decrease in thyroid function lead to the progression of endothelial dysfunction. Key words: hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus, subclinical hypothyroidism, endothelial dysfunction   Резюме.

Мета: дослідити вплив гормональних змін на ендотеліальну дисфункцію (ЕД) у пацієнтів з коморбідним перебігом артеріальної гіпертензії (АГ), цукрового діабету 2 типу (ЦД2Т) тасубклінічного гіпотиреозу (СГТ). Матеріали та методи: 183 пацієнта з АГ II стадії були розділені на 3 групи: 1-а група (n=50) - з ізольованою АГ (група порівняння); Група 2 (n=63) - з поєднаним перебігом АГ та ЦД2Т; Група 3 (n 70) – з комбінованим перебігом АГ, ЦД2Т і СГТ. Вивчали рівні артеріального тиску, показники вуглеводного, ліпідного і тиреоїдного обміну, концентрацію інсуліну в плазмі, індекс інсулінорезистентності (ІР) - HOMA-IR, рівні васкулоендотеліального фактора росту (VEGF-A) в плазмі. Результати. Ступінь дисліпідемії у 2-й групі була більш вираженою, ніж в 1-й. Приєднання СГТ супроводжувалося тенденцією до збільшення всіх атерогенних фракцій ліпідів. ІР спостерігалася у всіх групах пацієнтів і була достовірно більше, ніж у контрольній групі (р<0,05). Виявлено достовірне підвищення рівнів VEGF-A у всіх групах пацієнтів в порівнянні з контролем (р<0,05). В 2-й групі рівні VEGF-A були нижче, ніж в 1-й групі, що, ймовірно, пов'язано з протективним ефектом метформіну. Аналіз впливу ступеня гіпофункції щитовидної залози на ЕД виявив значне збільшення рівнів VEGF-A в підгрупі TSH> 6,0 мкМ / мл (352,55 ± 17,64 пг / мл і 461,74 ± 20,13 пг / мл відповідно, р <0,05). Висновки. Гормональні порушення сприяють погіршенню ендотеліальної дисфункції у пацієнтів з артеріальною гіпертензією та супутніми ендокринопатіями - цукровим діабетом 2 типу та субклінічним гіпотиреозом.

The identification of a suitable prevention method which facilitates limiting the deleterious effects of acute kidney injuries is highly required. In order to identify a proper treatment for acute kidney injuries, a suitable experimental model that replicates the structural, metabolic and inflammatory lesions that occur in the natural acute injured kidney is highly necessary. Intense urinary NAG activity can be found in a variety of renal disease such as toxic nephropathies, ischemic renal injury following cardiac surgery or renal transplantation but also in glomerular disease especially in diabetic nephropathy. Rises in urinary NAG enzyme activity strongly suggests tubular cell damage and support NAG enzyme as a biomarker of renal tubular injury. The aim of this paper is to obtain a stable in vivo acute kidney injury experimental model, in Wistar, rats and to evaluate the urinary activity of N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase (NAG) enzyme, blood levels of urea and creatinine and microstructural renal alterations induced by ischemia/reperfusion injury respectively gentamicin nephrotoxicity. For this purpose we have used a rat experimental model. Adult male Wistar rats weighing 250-300 g were randomly divided into 3 groups with 8 rats in each group. Group 1 served as a model for the renal ischemia/reperfusion injury experiment, group 2 served for toxic kidney injury experimental model and group 3 served as control group. All individuals in both groups 1 and 2 presented marked elevations in blood urea and creatinine at the moment of euthanasia (day 3 for group 1 and day 9 for group 2) compared to the control group where biochemical values remained within normal limits. Urine analysis of both group 1 and 2 showed marked urinary NAG index activity which suggests acute tubular injury, suggestion confirmed by histological evaluation of the renal parenchyma sampled from this subjects

Objectives: To determine the effect of ovarian autotransplan-tation on decreasing FSH level in Wistarrats late menopause model.Materials and Methods: Experimental analytic research on 27 Wistar rats (Rattus novergicus) was divided into 3 groups. Group 1 (K1) or control. Group 2 (K2) performed bilateral oophorec-tomy without autotransplantation. Group 3 (K3) performed bilateral oophorectomy with autotransplantation. Measurements of FSH levels were performed on the first day, day 28 (four weeks after bilateral oophorectomy, during late menopause) and 56 day (four weeks after autotransplant). Measurement of FSH levels using ELISA. Data analysis used ANOVA and Post Hoc test.Results: The mean FSH level measured on day 56 at K1 = 63.400 ng/mL, at K2 = 78.416 ng/mL and K3 = 31.991 ng/mL. There were significant differences between K1 and K2 (p = 0,000), K1 and K3 (p = 0,000), and between K2 and K3 (p = 0,000).Conclusion: Ovarian autotransplantation decrease FSH levels in Wistar rats late menopause model.
