Abstract Trypanosomosis or surra has been declared notifiable multispecies animal disease by World Organization for Animal Health. Diagnosis of trypanosomosis is a challenging task in field condition because none of reported signs is pathognomonic resulting in failure of treatment either inappropriate or delay in treatment. In spite of this, low hemoglobin level and hypoglycaemia are consistent hemato-biochemical changes in trypanosomosis. Therefore taking into consideration of both these two changes, tentative diagnosis of trypanosomosis could be done in low resource laboratory situated in rural area. With the development of eco and user friendly pen-side diagnostic, effective management of animal trypanosomosis could only be possible. Out of 123 buffaloes, 21 buffaloes found positive by PCR were showing average temperature 105.130F±0.983, blood glucose 32.319±9.760 and haemoglobin 8.60±1.485. Likewise Value of blood glucose (glucometer- 95% CI 68.488 to 77.141 and semiautomatic blood analyzer- CI 64.637 to 74.087) and haemoglobin (95% CI 95.743 to 97.314) were found statistically highly significant (P<0.001) with body temperature. Lower the blood glucose level in fevered animals may suspect the trypanosomosis. In these cases portable blood glucose meter may help the field veterinarian for on spot estimation of blood glucose level of fevered animals. An on spot estimation of lowered glucose level, anaemia and high temperature increases the probability of trypanosomosis. So that timely treatment of infected animal could be possible in rural area without wasting of time to get the report from full equipped laboratory. This might be the first time reported method for early diagnosis of trypanosomosis.

According to recent surveys, the current ways of diabetics trying to estimate their insulin need based on experience and conjecture are sometimes inefficient in practice. This paper proposes a prediction algorithm and presents the validation of the model in outpatient care. The algorithm consists of two state-of-the-art models that calculate nutrition absorption and glycaemia including insulin evolution. The combined model is extended with personalized parameter training including genetic algorithm and Nelder–Mead method, and a more realistic, diurnal parameter profile as a representation of the natural biorhythm. This method implemented in a user-friendly application can help diabetics calculate their insulin need. The tests were performed on a data set including a clinical trial involving more than 20 diabetic patients. We experienced 55% improvement in the results due to model training compared to the tests based on literature parameters. In the best case, 92.5% of the predicted blood glucose level values were in the range of clinically acceptable errors, which means around 2.8 mmol/l root mean square error. The results of the validation based on outpatient data are promising compared to others found in the literature. Handling other important factors such as physical activity and stress remains a challenge for future research.

We have studied and analyzed status and metrological supervision of blood glucose monitors, individual devices for a person’s blood glucose level measurement. It has been indicated that nowadays blood glucose monitors like other individual devices for medical measurement are not allowed to be involved in telemedicine public service. This accounts for absence of metrological supervision with these measurement devices in telemedicine. In addition, the key problem is absence of safe methods and means of remote verificaition, calibration and transmission of measurement data to health care centers. The article offers a remote test method for blood glucose monitors using a number of resistors with values correlating with measured blood glucose level. The available method has been successfully trialed in real practice.

Tablet Formulations

: Glipizide (GZ) is an oral blood-glucose-lowering drug of the sulfonylurea class characterized by its poor aqueous solubility. Aiming for the production of GZ tablets with rapid onset of action followed by prolonged effect; GZ-Polyethylene glycol (PEG 4000 and 6000) solid dispersions with different ratios, (using melting and solvent evaporation method), as well as, coprecipitate containing GZ with polymethyl-methacrylate (PMMA) were prepared. Four tablet formulations were prepared containing; a) GZ alone, b) GZ: PEG6000, 1:10, c) GZ:PMMA 1:3, and, d)both GZ:PEG6000 1:10 and GZ:PMMA 1:3. The solvent evaporation method showed more enhancement of GZ solubility than the melting one, and this solubilizing effect increased with PEG increment. Generally, PEG6000 showed more enhancement of dissolution than PEG4000 especially at 1:10 drug: polymer ratio (the most enhancing formula). Also, the prepared tablet formulations showed acceptable physical properties according to USP/NF requirements. The dissolution results revealed that tablets containing PEG6000 (1:10) have the most rapid release rate, followed by the formula containing both PEG6000 and PMMA, while that including PMMA alone showed the slowest dissolution rate. Moreover, In-vivo studies for each of the above four formulations, were performed using four mice groups. The most effective formula in decreasing the blood glucose level, through the first 6 hours, was that containing GZ and PEG6000, 1:10. However, formula containing the combination of enhanced and sustained GZ was the most effective in decreasing the blood glucose level through 16 hours. Successful in-vitro in-vivo correlations could be detected between the percent released and the percent decreasing of blood glucose level after 0.5 hours.

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.

Background: The present study was aimed at developing and exploring the use of PEGylated Poly (propyleneimine) dendrimers for the delivery of an anti-diabetic drug, insulin. Methods: For this study, 4.0G PPI dendrimer was synthesized by successive Michael addition and exhaustive amidation reactions, using ethylenediamine as the core and acrylonitrile as the propagating agent. Two different activated PEG moieties were employed for PEGylation of PPI dendrimers. Various physicochemical and physiological parameters UV, IR, NMR, TEM, DSC, drug entrapment, drug release, hemolytic toxicity and blood glucose level studies of both PEGylated and non- PEGylated dendritic systems were determined and compared. Results: PEGylation of PPI dendrimers caused increased solubilization of insulin in the dendritic framework as well as in PEG layers, reduced drug release and hemolytic toxicity as well as increased therapeutic efficacy with reduced side effects of insulin. These systems were found to be suitable for sustained delivery of insulin by in vitro and blood glucose-level studies in albino rats, without producing any significant hematological disturbances. Conclusion: Thus, surface modification of PPI dendrimers with PEG molecules has been found to be a suitable approach to utilize it as a safe and effective nano-carrier for drug delivery.
