A research plan has been developed in the present study to address the problems associated with Avaranajanya Madhumeha (type 2 diabetes). This research plan is based on the treatment methods of Ayurveda (ancient Indian medicine) and utilization of modern scientific methods as research tools. A specific ayurvedic herbo-mineral formulation has been prepared in Ghansatt (solid extract) form; the selected eight herbs and one herbo-mineral have anti-hyperglycemic (PRAMEHA HARA) and antihypercholestermic (MEDOHARA) properties with rejuvenative (RASAYANA) effects as described in classical ayurvedic methods. 15 diagnosed type II diabetes mellitus patients were selected through accidental sampling. Ayurvedic formulation was prescribed to type II diabetes patients for one year along with dietary restrictions. Diabetic diagnostic parameters of these patients like Fasting Blood Sugar (FBS), Post Patrum Blood Sugar (PPBS), Glycocylated Hemoglobin (HbA1C) and Urine Sugar Fasting were monitored every three months; these were measured before and after intervention. The obtained data were statistically analyzed through paired t-test. There was significant reduction in FBS level, PPBS level, HbA1C level and urine fasting sugar level in type 2 diabetes patients who completed the clinical trial successfully. Thus, ayurvedic formulation treatment lead to an overall significant reduction in blood sugar and urine sugar levels in type II diabetes patients. No side effects were noted during the study period. This study suggests that the ayurvedic formulation had very good hypoglycemic effects proved by clinical improvement and bio-chemical analysis of diabetes parameters in the treatment of type II diabetes mellitus.

Acute Hyperglycaemia

Type II Diabetes Mellitus is one of the most common non-communicable diseases with innumerable & potentially life threatening complications. In 2017, approximately 462 million individuals were affected by type 2 diabetes corresponding to 6.28% of the world's population (4.4% of those aged 15-49 years, 15% of those aged 50-69, and 22% of those aged 70+), or a prevalence rate of 6059 cases per 100,000. Over 1 million deaths per year can be attributed to diabetes alone, making it the ninth leading cause of mortality. The burden of diabetes mellitus is rising globally, and at a much faster rate in developed regions, such as Western Europe. The gender distribution is equal, and the incidence peaks at around 55 years of age. Global prevalence of type 2 diabetes is projected to increase to 7079 individuals per 100,000 by 2030, reecting a continued rise across all regions of the world.[¹] . Two of the common complications due to acute hyperglycaemia are Diabetic Ketocidosis & Non ketotic hyperosmolar coma which are considered a spectrum of the same complication due to low circulating levels of insulin leading to impaired glucose metabolism by insulin dependant tissues with rising levels of anti-insulin hormones like glucagon, cortisol & catecholamines due to intracellular starvation resulting in hypergylcemia & fatty acid breakdown & ketonemia. Amongst the numerous complications of Type II Diabetes Mellitus, here we present a rare complication of acute hyperglycaemia and its radiological picture in the central nervous system. A 56 year old female patient with a history of Type II Diabetes Mellitus with Hypertension under long term medication came for a private consultation with a complaint of Right sided involuntary, random, irregular, inging and ailing, rapid, non-patterned movements for past 7 days. The patient was advised for an urgent MRI of Brain which demonstrated high T1 signal & low T2/FLAIR intensity with no diffusion restriction of DWI & ADC map in left sided putamen & head of caudate nucleus. We illustrated a rare classical nding of acute hyperglycemic effect on brain in a case of long standing Type II Diabetes Mellitus despite being on medications

Background: Hyperuricemia is associated with type 2 diabetes, which is a metabolic disorder of multiple etiologies resulting from defects in insulin action. The present study wascarried out to look for any association between uric acid and Type II Diabetes Mellitus and also status of triacylglycerol level among those patients.Methods: The blood samples were collected 100 diabetic and 100 non-diabetic individuals in the department of biochemistry and then analyzed for estimation of blood glucose, Uric Acid and Triacylglycerol level.Results: The average level of serum uric acid in diabetic patients was higher (5.706±1.617) in comparison to non diabetic subjects (4.322±0.784) with statistically significant difference (p≤0.05). For female the result indicate there was a positive correlation between (FBS and triglycerides) and (triglycerides and uric acids) which was statistically significant (r =-0.465, n = 41, p = 0.002) and(r =-0.370, n = 41, p = 0.017) respectively.Conclusions: This study documents that hyperuricemia is associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Furthermore, the serum triacylglycerol and serum uric acid is also found to be associated risk factors for diabetic complications. Hence, timely diagnosis and management of diabetes is vital to control the complications related to diabetes.Ann. Clin. Chem. Lab. Med. 2016:2(1); 26-34

Introduction: Patients with diabetes mellitus are at a higher risk of developing primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) as compared to non-diabetic patients. Objectives: To determine whether there is a correlation between hyperglycemic levels and intraocular pressure (IOP) and to identify patients of Type II diabetes mellitus who are at a higher risk of developing glaucoma. Materials and Methods: This was a hospital based, cross sectional study performed on patients with type II diabetes mellitus, at a tertiary health care center in Uttarakhand, India between July, 2018 and September, 2018. 318 eyes of 159 patients with Type2 diabetes mellitus were included in the study. IOP was measured by Goldmannappla nation to no meter and central corneal thickness was measured with specula microscope in all patients, in addition to glycated hemoglobin levels (HbA1c) and fasting and post-prandial blood glucose levels. The data was analysed using SPSS 22 software. Results: Mean IOP was found to be 15.75 ± 3.18 mm Hg in patients with HbA1c levels between 6.5%-12% (Group I) and 17.42 ± 2.67 mm Hg in patients with HbA1c levels more than 12 % (Group II). The difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P =0.013). Out of 159 patients with Type 2 Diabetes mellitus, a total of 11 patients had IOP more than 21mm Hg in one or both the eyes. Conclusion: Hyperglycaemic levels as determined by raised HbA1c levels are associated with higher intraocular pressures in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Abstract Background An aging HIV-infected population has growing recognition for its increasing prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Most studies of T2DM prevalence among patients living with HIV involve selected samples and/or small cohorts which limit generalizability. We sought to evaluate the overall prevalence of T2DM among patients living with HIV in the United States as well as within specific demographic subgroups. Methods A cross-sectional analysis was performed using a large, multi-institutional database (Explorys), where clinical information across 27 healthcare networks are matched and standardized to create longitudinal records for each unique patient. At present, the database contains 63 million unique lives, representing 18% of the population across all 4 census regions of the United States. Patients with all types of insurance as well as those who are self-pay are represented. The analysis included adult patients with an active status in the database during April 2014- April 2019 who, not missing data on age, gender, race, and body mass index. The Systematized Nomenclature of Medicine—Clinical Terms (SNOMED-CT) of “Human Immunodeficiency Virus,” “diabetes mellitus type 2,” “disorder due to type 2 diabetes mellitus,” and “Type II diabetes mellitus uncontrolled” were used to identify patients with HIV and T2DM. Results We identified 90,900 patients with HIV. The overall prevalence of T2DM among patients with HIV was 22.1% (20,080/90,900) compared with 14.9% (2,679,490/17,946,580) in the general population. In subgroup analysis, the prevalence of T2DM was highest among patients with HIV who were female, older, other race, obese, hypertensive, hyperlipidemic, smokers, alcoholics, and those with a history of hepatitis C infection. Patients with no exposure to antiretroviral therapy (ART) had higher prevalence of T2DM than those with exposure (24.9% vs. 17.6%). Conclusion In this US population-based study, we found 1 in 5 people living with HIV had prevalent T2DM. In addition, we observed that HIV-associated T2DM may not depend on chronic ART exposure. Physicians caring for patients with HIV should be aware of the association and should monitor for signs and symptoms of T2DM. Disclosures All authors: No reported disclosures.

Background: Diabetes is the commonest metabolic disorder affecting the people all over the world. Objective of the study was to identify the diastolic dysfunction in type 2 diabetes mellitus patient to recognize the early involvement of heart.Methods: This cross sectional study was conducted in tertiary care hospital cases of type II diabetes mellitus coming to our hospital and giving informed consent. Period of study was from September 2016 to February 2018. Consecutive type of non-probability sampling was used for the selection of study subjects. A total of 54 diagnosed patients of type II diabetes mellitus coming to our hospital and giving informed consent were included in the study.Results: Prevalence of diastolic dysfunction was observed to be 44.4% in patients of type 2 diabetes mellitus without cardiac manifestations. Prevalence of diastolic dysfunction was seen in 47.4% males in comparison to 42.9% females. Prevalence of diastolic dysfunction was 11.1%, 77.3% and 80% in cases with disease duration of 0-5 years, 6-10 years and more than 10 years respectively. Prevalence of diastolic dysfunction was more in cases with poor glycaemic control i.e. hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) value >8% as compared to cases with good glycemic control.Conclusions: There was an association between the prevalence of diastolic dysfunction with the increasing age. We had higher percentage of patients with diastolic dysfunction as duration of diabetes increased. Diastolic dysfunction was seen in 55.2% patients receiving oral hypoglycaemic agents (OHAs) as compared to 23.5% patients who were on insulin and 50% patients who were on both insulin and OHAs.
