Correlation of macronutrient intake with body mass index, blood sugar levels, and total blood protein in drug usersBackground: Random blood sugar level and total blood protein need to be measured among drug users because their macronutrient intakes (carbohydrates, fat, protein, and energy) are not appropriate to the pattern of daily habits before uses drugs. Drug users had decreased appetite during the influence and withdrawal symptoms of drugs with the impacts on their body mass index (BMI). Objective: To analyze the correlation of macronutrient intakes between the random blood sugar level, total blood protein, and BMI drug users.Methods: This research was conducted with a cross-sectional design and observational study. 73 drug users were included in the study with the screening by inclusion criteria. 24-hour food recall was used to collect the macronutrient intakes, random blood sugar levels and total blood protein were monitored by the GOD-PAP method, and BMI was measured by weight and height. Data analysis used Pearson’s correlation test in bivariate and multivariate was carried out by multiple linear regressions. Results: Pearson’s correlation analysis showed that there was a significant correlation between macronutrient intakes (energy, carbohydrate, fat) with random blood sugar level, total blood protein, and BMI. BMI was the most affected by energy (β=0.531), random blood sugar level was the most affected by carbohydrates (β=0.073), and total blood protein was the most affected by protein (β=0.837).Conclusions: Macronutrient intake is significantly related to BMI, random blood sugar levels, and total blood protein in drug users. Community collaboration with related parties such as the public health service and National Narcotics Agency will very quickly detect drug side effects early on eating disorders that will affect the nutritional status of its users.

Abstract Objective Carbohydrates, proteins, and fats are energy sources needed by the body for performing daily activities and generating primary energy substances. In women who have undergone menopause, the function of thyroid hormone in their body begins to decline and thus affects the ability of the body to produce energy. The purpose of this study was to determine the correlation between the intakes of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats and random blood sugar levels in menopausal women. Methods This study was a correlational analytical research with a cross-sectional design, which was conducted in 72 menopausal women recruited by the purposive sampling technique. In this study, a 24-hour food recall form was used, and randomized blood sugar levels were measured using a glucometer. The analysis of the data was performed using a Pearson product moment and multiple linear regression. Results Carbohydrates and fats together affected random blood sugar levels with an F-value of 25.810 and a p-value of 0.000. Meanwhile, adjusted R2 showed the value of 0.411, indicating that the difference in the intake of carbohydrates and fats together affected random blood sugar levels by 41.1%. Conclusions Intake of carbohydrates and fats affected random blood sugar levels, whereas the rest were influenced by other factors, and protein intake was unrelated to random blood sugar levels in menopausal women.

This study is focus on the biochemical analysis to investigate the condition of different biochemical parameters for the Vitiligo patients. This biochemical analysis deals with the blood serum level of random blood sugar, bilirubin, urea, total protein, SGOT, SGPT, alkaline phosphatase, total cholesterol and uric acids. The increasing some of the biochemical parameters were statistically significant with the age groups. Random blood sugar analysis of the 125 patient's age group 31- 40, 41- 50 and above 50 significantly higher than the control group. No significant changes were observed in serum bilirubin, serum urea, serum creatinine, serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and serum asparate amino transferase (AST) level in different age group of Vitiligo patients. In this study, the serum total proteins were slightly decreased in the age group patients below 10 and 11-20 as compared to healthy controls. The average serum total protein level of the below 10 and 11-20 age group patients were 5.31 g/dl and 6.50 g/dl respectively, whereas the controls were 5.95 g/dl and 6.92 g/dl respectively. Serum cholesterol, serum triglycerides and serum uric acid levels were significantly changed in the age group 11-20 and 31-40 compared with the healthy control. The average serum cholesterol level, triglyceride (TG) level and uric acid level were 152.17 mg/dl, 90.27 mg/dl, 4.75 mg/dl and 173.40 mg/dl, 149.95 mg/dl, 5.54 mg/dl respectively for the patients of 11-20 and 31-40 years age group. The controls of these parameters for the 11-20 years and 31-40 years age groups were 150.57 mg/dl, 94.41 mg/dl, 4.28 mg/dl and 156.75 mg/dl, 101mg/dl, 4.77mg/dl respectively. These biochemical studies on Vitiligo indicated that there was no significant changed observed in some biochemical parameters in the different age group of Vitiligo patients but some biochemical parameters like total protein, total cholesterol, triglycerides (TG), uric acid and random blood sugar level were significantly changed in different age group of Vitiligo patients specially among the 11-20 and 31-40 years age group. This biochemical studies would be helpful to know details about the pathological condition of the Vitiligo patients associated with other disease.

Background: Compliance to the advice given in the diabetes screening camp will ensure timely diagnosis and lifestyle modification in high risk individuals. The objective of the study was to determine factors associated with follow up telephonic contacts and compliance to advice regarding lifestyle modification and confirmation of diagnosis. Methods: A prospective cohort study was conducted among persons aged more than 30 years attending a diabetes screening camp in outpatient department of a tertiary care hospital. Follow up telephonic contact to assess compliance was done among those with random blood sugar level >140mg/dl. Fisher’s exact test and relative risk with 95% confidence interval were calculated. Results: Out of the 1798 individuals attending the screening camp, 170 (9.4%) had raised random blood sugar level. Of these, 113 (66%) could be contacted telephonically. Male gender (RR=1.45, 95% CI=1.12-1.89; p=0.002), formal education (RR=1.85, 95% CI=1.20-2.86; p=0.00), gainful employment (RR=1.31, 95% CI=1.002-1.72; p=0.04) and perception of diabetes as serious and fatal disease (RR=1.26, 95% CI=1.02-1.55;p=0.04) were significantly associated with successful follow up contact. Of the 103 eligible individuals followed up for assessment of compliance, 82 (80%), 63 (61%) and 50 (49%) were compliant to advice regarding diet, physical activity and follow up visits for confirmation of diagnosis respectively. None of the independent factors were significantly associated with compliance. Confirmation of diagnosis of diabetes and initiation of antidiabetic treatment was reported by 33 respondents. Conclusions: A robust and holistic follow up mechanism to ensure better compliance to lifestyle modification and confirmation of diagnosis after a diabetes screening camp is needed.

Background: Previous studies have reported the presence of diabetes ketoacidosis in patients of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). India reported that up to 30% of hospitalized DKA cases result in inpatient death. Aims and objectives of the study was to study the role of HbA1c and duration of diabetes in outcome of patients of diabetic ketoacidosis in type 2 diabetes mellitus.Methods: Hundred T2DM patients having DKA admitted in the Department of Medicine, Gandhi Medical College and Hamidia Hospital, Bhopal, were included. Data on demography (age, sex and diabetes duration, random blood sugar (RBS) and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) were recorded for each patients. Outcome was also recorded and compared with duration of diabetes and HbA1c level.Results: DKA was more common in age group of51-55 years (21%) with mean age of 56.10±10.40 years. Male preponderance was observed. Mean duration of diabetes, hemoglobin, random blood sugar (RBS) and HbA1c were 7.28±3.81 years, 9.8±1.42 gm%, 351.72±22.32 mg/dl, and 7.14±0.10 respectively. Mortality was higher among the patients with longer duration of diabetes (23.1%; p=0.012) and higher HbA1c (25%, p>0.05).Conclusions: Duration of diabetes play a significant role in deciding mortality in T2DM patients with DKA however HbA1c has no role in that.

Background: Perioperative hyperglycemia is frequently encountered in clinical practice. Recent evidence suggests that hyperglycemia plays a significant role in the development of postoperative infections (POI). Major focus has been placed on whether hyperglycemia, as an independent risk factor, is associated with increased infection. The optimal targeted blood glucose range to prevent POI remains unclear, especially in the intra-operative period.Aims and Objectives: To study the association between  peri-operative hyperglycemia to the subsequent risk of post-operative infections through a prospective  observational study.Materials and Methods: A prospective study of 101 patients undergoing different types of general surgery procedures followed up to 30 days post-operatively was done. Random  blood Sugar (RBS) was taken (1) Pre-operatively (2) Intra-operatively (3) Postoperatively- after 6, 24 and 48 hours. Primary end points of the study were (1)  Surgical wound infection (2) Urinary tract infection (3) Septicemia.Results: Out of 101 patients 57 developed perioperative hyperglycemia (incidence- 56.4%). In normoglycemic  group of patients infection rate was 4.5% (2/44) as compared to 26.3% (15/57) in perioperative hyperglycemic group.Conclusion: The present study provides a convincing evidence of an association between perioperative hyperglycemia and post-operative infection apart from giving a possible relationship between preoperative blood sugar levels and postoperative infection.Asian Journal of Medical Sciences Vol.7(6) 2016 32-35
