Objective: Glutamate carboxypeptidase II (GCPII), reduced folate carrier 1 (RFC1), and methionine synthase (MTR) genes involved in the folate metabolic pathway may play a key role in the pathogenesis of diabetes and its complications. The present study aimed to investigate the prevalence of genetic polymorphisms of GCPII C1561T, RFC1 A80G, and MTR A2756G in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) among South Indians. Methods: The study subjects consisted of 100 healthy individuals and 200 patients with T2DM. Genetic polymorphisms (GCPII C1561T, RFCI A80G, and MTR A2756G) in the folate metabolic pathway were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism method. Statistical analysis was performed to test the level of significance. Results: With regard to GCPII C1561T and MTR A2756G gene polymorphisms, significant differences were not found when diabetic patients (with and without complications) and controls were compared according to different statistical models (dominant, recessive, and overdominant) p>0.05. A case–control genetic association analysis of RFC1 A80G gene polymorphism has shown that there was 3.7-fold increased risk for patients without complications and 4.9-fold increased risk for diabetic patients with complications. Conclusions: Our findings suggest that the GCPII C1561T and MTR A2756G gene polymorphisms were not significantly associated with diabetes and its complications. Whereas, the RFCI A80G gene polymorphism involved in folate metabolism confers increased risk for diabetes and its complications in South Indian population.

Background: Diabetes mellitus is a very common endocrinal disorders and incidence of thyroid dysfunction also rising in India and world over. Thyroid hormones directly control insulin secretion and insulin clearance. Diabetes also may affect the thyroid function to variable extent first at the level of hypothalamic control of TSH release and second at peripheral tissue by converting T4 to T3. Aims and Objectives: The present study was carried out aiming to evaluate thyroid dysfunction among type 2 diabetes mellitus patients. Material and Methods: Study included total 80 subjects. Thyroid dysfunction was evaluated by investigating the subjects for Total tri-iodo-thyronine (T3), Total thyroxine (T4) and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH). Plasma glucose was estimated by- GOD-POD method and Thyroid profile was estimated by- CLIA (chemiluminescence immunoassay) system. Statistical analysis was performed using software statistical package for social sciences (SPSS) version 20, unpaired T test, Pearson’s correlation. Results: In type 2 diabetic patients the prevalence of hypothyroidism and subclinical hypothyroidism was found to be 4(10.00%) and 6(15.00%) respectively, while the prevalence of subclinical hyperthyroidism and hyperthyroidism was found to be 0(0.0%) and 1(2.5%) respectively. In non diabetic healthy subjects the prevalence of hypothyroidism and subclinical hypothyroidism was found to be 1(2.5%) and 3(7.5%) respectively while the prevalence of subclinical hyperthyroidism and hyperthyroidism was found to be 0(0.0%) and 0(0.0%) respectively. Conclusion: The prevalence of thyroid dysfunction was found to be higher in type 2 diabetes mellitus subjects as compared to non-diabetic subjects.

This study aimed to investigate the susceptibility of 8 polymorphisms in ApoB and PCSK9 genes to diabetic kidney disease (DKD) in Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. This is a case-control association study, including 575 DKD cases and 653 controls. Genotypes were determined using ligase detection reaction method, and data are analyzed using STATA software. The genotype distributions of rs1042034 and rs12720838 differed significantly between the two groups (P < 0.001 and P = 0.008, respectively). After adjusting for confounding factors, the mutations of rs1042034 and rs12720838 were associated with the significantly increased risk of DKD. For instance, carriers of rs1042034 T allele (CT and TT genotypes) were 1.07 times more likely to have DKD than carriers of rs1042034 CC genotype [odds ratio (OR) = 1.07, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.03–1.10, P < 0.001]. Further, haplotype T-A-G-T in ApoB gene was overrepresented in cases (18.10%) compared with controls (12.76%) (PSimulated = 0.045), and haplotype T-A-G-T was associated with a 33% increased risk of DKD (OR = 1.33, 95% CI: 1.04, 1.70). In further haplotype-phenotype analysis, significant association was only noted for hypertension and omnibus haplotypes in ApoB gene (PSimulated = 0.001). Our findings indicate that ApoB gene is a candidate gene for DKD in Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Background: Diabetes mellitus is an endocrine disorder which involves multiple organ systems and leads to significant morbidity and mortality. Diabetes mellitus has been defined as “A metabolic syndrome characterized by chronic hyperglycemia and disturbance of carbohydrate, fat and protein metabolism associated with absolute or relative deficiency in insulin secretion and or insulin action”. Thyroid diseases are also a common endocrinopathy seen in the adult population. Thyroid hormones are intimately involved in cellular metabolism. The present work is a modest attempt to study the prevalence of thyroid disorders in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.Methods: The study was carried out in total 108 diabetic patients without known thyroid disorder admitted in various Medical wards of R.N.T. Medical college and attached group of hospitals, Udaipur. It was a cross Sectional study done over a period of 10 months. Results: In the present study, 13% of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus had abnormal thyroid profile. Out of which the most common presentation was sub clinical hypothyroidism found in 9.25% followed by1.9% had overt hypothyroidism and 1.9% had sub clinical hyperthyroidism. In persons with abnormal thyroid profile 85.7% were females and 14.3% were males which was statistically significant.Conclusions: Prevalence of thyroid dysfunction is common among T2DM patients and is higher in females than in males. There is no significant correlation between thyroid dysfunction and age, diabetes control, family history, type of treatment and HbA1c level in diabetic patients.

Abstract Background: Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic metabolic condition with various genetics and environmental influences that affects the capacity of the body to produce or use insulin resulting in hyperglycemia, which may lead to variable complications. It is one of the world’s rising health problems. There is emerging evidence that some genetic polymorphisms can impact the risk of evolving T2DM. We try to determine the relationship of (rs7903146) variant of the Transcription factor 7-like 2 (TCF7L2) gene with T2DM and its microvascular complications.Methods and Results: This case-control study included 180 subjects: 60 diabetic patients without complications, 60 diabetic patients with microvascular complications and 60 matched healthy controls. Genotypes of rs7903146 (C/T) SNP in the TCF7L2 gene were evaluated by real-time polymerase chain reaction via TaqMan allelic discrimination. Logistic regression was used to detect the most independent factor for development of diabetes and diabetic microvascular complications. Variant homozygous TT and heterozygous TC genotypes were significantly increased in diabetic without complications and diabetic with complications groups than controls (p=0.003, 0.001) respectively. The T allele was more represented in both patient groups than controls with no significant difference between patient groups. TT genotype as well as T allele was significantly associated with increased T2DM risk.Conclusion: The T allele of rs7903146 polymorphism of TCF7L2 confers susceptibility to development of T2DM. However, no significant association was found for diabetic complications.

The aim of this study was to prepare a Japanese version of the “Satisfaction of Treatment among Caregivers of Dependent Type 2 Diabetic Patients” (STCD2-J) questionnaire, which is used to assess the satisfaction of family caregivers with respect to the treatment for elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who require support. In addition, the reliability and validity of the STCD2-J questionnaire were analyzed. A Japanese version of the original STCD2 questionnaire was prepared, revised, and back-translated; the back-translated version was sent to the authors of the original version for confirmation. Family caregivers of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus aged ≥65 years who regularly underwent medical examinations at the diabetes mellitus outpatient clinic of Ise Red Cross Hospital were included. Cronbach’s α coefficient was calculated to assess internal consistency. Exploratory factor analyses were performed to assess construct validity, and Pearson’s correlation coefficients between STCD2-J score and HbA1c as well as the degree of satisfaction with patients’ blood glucose levels, depression, and negative self-assessment of nursing care were calculated to assess criterion-related validity. This study included 208 individuals (55 males and 153 females). Cronbach’s α coefficient was 0.88. Factor analyses showed a single-factor structure both with and without rotation. The STCD2-J scores were significantly inversely correlated with HbA1c (r=−0.27, P<0.001). Significant correlations were observed between the STCD2-J scores and degree of satisfaction with patients’ blood glucose levels (r=0.43, P<0.001), depression (r=−0.20, P=0.003), and negative self-assessment of nursing care (r=−0.19, P=0.004). The reliability and validity of the STCD2-J questionnaire were confirmed. The STCD2-J questionnaire can be used in Japan as a tool to assess the satisfaction of family caregivers with the treatment of elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus requiring support.

Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). There is twofold increased risk of cardiovascular (CV) mortality among diabetic patients as compared with nondiabetic patients. The glycemic efficacy of anti-diabetic drugs does not necessarily provide cardiovascular safety. Since 2008, US Food and Drug Administration has recommended that new drugs for type 2 DM should undergo clinical trials to demonstrate cardiovascular safety in addition to glycemic benefit. In 2012, European medicine agencies issued a similar recommendation. In this review, we have tried to examine the cardiovascular safety of oral antidiabetic agents in major published trials. Metformin remains the initial drug of choice in type2 DM till date. The sulfonylureas, one of oldest oral anti-diabetic drugs, have adverse cardiovascular events and are gradually being out classed by other second line drugs. The glitazones have been found to have adverse outcome in heart failure. The incretin based drugs have been found to have cardiovascular safety in various trials in recent past and their performances have been reassuring. There is lack of enough cardiovascular outcome data for meglitinides and glucosidase inhibitors. Various current trials have found sodium glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors to have a potential for cardiovascular benefit. Careful selection of drug therapy with special attention for cardiovascular risk is important in selection and optimization of diabetic therapy.
