Introduction: Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolite disorder with high potential of multisystemic medical complications especially among poorly controlled patients. This study was conducted at Raja Perempuan Zainab II Hospital, Kota Bharu with objectives to explore the pattern of common diabetic mellitus type 2 complications and to compare between gender and races in relation to other risk factors during their hospitalization. Materials and Methods: This is a retrospective study based on patients’ record involving 215 patients (110 women and 105 men) who were admitted with diabetic complications in medical ward for a period of 6 months (January to June 2006) Results: Out of total 300 identifi ed subjects, 285 case notes were traceable. From 285, 84.6% (241 subjects) were diagnosed as DM type 2. 215 out of 241 subjects (89.2%) had one or more diabetic complications. In general the most common diabetic complication was diabetic nephropathy 34.9% (75 patients). When we compared between genders, diabetic foot ulcers was the most common diabetic complications among males (43.8%) and diabetic nephropathy for females (40.9%). A total of 199 patients (92.6%) had poor blood sugar control during their hospitalization and 103 patients (47.9%) had hypertension. Conclusion: Patients with DM type 2 had a high prevalence of complications. Common diabetic complications among genders were varied. Patients with diabetic complications had high prevalence of risk factors such as poor blood sugar control, concomitant hypertension and smoking habit.

Diabetes mellitus represents a serious medico-social problem that is caused by its high prevalence, a tendency to body height of number ofpatients, a high invalidism and a mortality. The main reason for death ofpatients with a diabetes mellitus type 2 is the pathology of cardiovascular system bound to an atherosclerosis to which leads lack of adequate compensation of a disease. In this article various risk factors of cardiovascular pathology at patients with a diabetes mellitus are surveyed and modern opportunities in their correction are discussed.

Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic, non communicable, multisystem disease that has reached epidemic proportions. Chronic exposure to hyperglycaemia affects the microvasculature, eventually leading to diabetic nephropathy, retinopathy and neuropathy with high impact on the quality of life and overall life expectancy. Sexual dysfunction is an often-overlooked microvascular complication of T2DM, with a complex pathogenesis originating from endothelial dysfunction. Objective: The purpose of this review is to present current definitions, epidemiological data and risk factors for diabetic retinopathy, nephropathy, neuropathy and sexual dysfunction. We also describe the clinical and laboratory evaluation that is mandatory for the diagnosis of these conditions. Method: A comprehensive review of the literature was performed to identify data from clinical studies for the prevalence, risk factors and diagnostic methods of microvascular complications of T2DM. Results: Diabetic nephropathy and retinopathy affect approximately 25% of patients with T2DM; diabetic neuropathy is encountered in almost 50% of the diabetic population, while the prevalence of erectile dysfunction ranges from 35-90% in diabetic men. The duration of T2DM along with glycemic, blood pressure and lipid control are common risk factors for the development of these complications. Criteria for the diagnosis of these conditions are well established, but exclusion of other causes is mandatory. Conclusion: Early detection of microvascular complications associated with T2DM is important, as early intervention leads to better outcomes. However, this requires awareness of their definition, prevalence and diagnostic modalities.

Objective: to assess the presence of glycemic variability in patients with diabetes mellitus type 2 (DM Type 2), as well as to identify the risk factors which affect the degree of expression of the variability indices. Material and methods. Glycemic variability indices were assessed in 92 patients with DM Type 2 receiving different hypoglycemic therapy regimens. Results . It has been found that glycemic variability in 78 % of the examined patients with DM Type 2 was expressed and depended on the regimen of hypoglycemic therapy. The use of insulin therapy in the treatment regimen in patients with DM Type 2 and a BMI of less than 28.6 kg/m2 is a risk factor that increases glycemic variability. Postprandial hyperglycemia (2 hours after breakfast) is caused by high variability regardless of the regimen of hypoglycemic therapy. SD variability indices and glycemic amplitude are the assessment criteria for the degree of glycemic variability in the postprandial period of time. Conclusion . Glycemic variability in patients with DM Type 2 is expressed and depends on the regimen of hypoglycemic therapy. Calculation of glycemic variability indices in glycemic self-control will improve individual target glycemia values and it will make it possible to correct the tactical scheme of hypoglycemic therapy on an outpatient basis.

Aims. Development of assessment model for type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) patient stratification for painless ischemic heart disease(IHD). Materials and methods. 258 patients with DM type 2 participated in this study (109 male and 149 female) of mean age 58.4?8.5 withDM experience of 7.9?6.1 years. All participants were subdivided into three groups: first - DM type 2 without history of painless IHD(138 individuals); second - DM type 2 with diagnosed painless IHD (50 individuals); third - DM type 2 with painful myocardialischemia. We assessed "classic" risk factors for IHD, immediately connected with DM comorbidity, as well as "additional" risk factors,potentially capable of provoking both painless and painful IHD. In addition, we screened our patients for structural abnormalitiesof heart by means of echocardiography. Painless IHD was diagnosed by treadmill-tests or Holter monitoring with submaximal exercise.Accumulated data was statistically processed with the use of Spearman's rank correlation, as well as binary logistic regression method.Results were deemed statistically significant at р

Abstract Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is the leading cause of end-stage renal disease worldwide. Albuminuria is the most sensitive marker for the early recognition of DN. Therefore, we aimed to study the risk factors of albuminuria as a marker of DN among diabetic patients. The study included 41 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), 50 type 2 diabetic nephropathy (T2DN) patients with macroalbuminuria, 43 T2DN patients with microalbuminuria and 38 healthy controls. Logistic regression was used to detect the most significant risk factors for albuminuria. A high statistically significant difference was found between the groups regarding age, sex, body mass index (BMI), diabetes mellitus (DM) duration, glucose, glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c), creatinine, glomerular filtration rate (GFR), lipid profile, tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), C-reactive protein (CRP), the albumin–creatinine ratio (ACR), vitamin D, total parathyroid hormone (PTH), urea, total calcium and chemerin (p < 0.001). It was found that the duration of DM, BMI, glucose, GFR, total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), TNF-α, IL-6, CRP, ACR, vitamin D, PTH and chemerin are significant albuminuria risk factors in DN. Vitamin D deficiency and associated inflammatory mediators such as chemerin, TNF-α, IL-6 and CRP are the most essential risk factors for albuminuria in T2DM patients.

Introduction. Results of epidemiological analysis show that one third of patients with diabetes mellitus develop diabetic nephropathy (DN). Strategies used until now to slow down the progression of DN were initiated when the symptoms of DN were already present. Objective. Our objective was to analyze the prevalence and characteristics of DN and to determine the factors leading to DN. Methods. Fifty-two patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) - 32 with type 1 aged 32 years and 20 with type 2 aged 59 years - were referred from the Institute of Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolic Diseases to the Department of Nephrology for kidney function evaluation. Apart from routine laboratory analyses, glomerular filtration rate was calculated using the MDRD formula (modification of diet in renal disease), the size of the kidney was measured by ultrasound, and kidney volume was calculated using the ellipsoid formula. Results Thirty percent of the patients revealed normal (eight patients with DM type 1) or satisfactory kidney function (eight patients with DM type 1) with physiological proteinuria. Micro-albuminuria (MAU) or pathological proteinuria (PRT) were found in 10 and 9 patients, respectively, with DM type 1, while decreased kidney function was found in one patient without proteinuria. MAU or PRT were found in four and eight patients, respectively, with DM type 2 and decreased kidney function in four patients without proteinuria. Kidney function was significantly lower in patients with DM type 2 in comparison to DM type 1, while the patients with decreased kidney function had a higher PRT. Compared to DM type 2, in DM type 1 patients, the kidney was longer, and parenchymal artery resistance index was lower in DM type 1 patients compared to DM type 2. Factors associated with DN were patient's age, duration of diabetes, systolic blood pressure, HbA1c and kidney volume. Conclusion. The prevalence of DN among the studied patients was 70%. Treatable factors associated with the development of DN are strict control of blood pressure and glycaemia control.
