Background: Serum ferritin is known as an index for body iron stores also as an inflammatory marker and it is influenced by several disease. We were looking for a correlation between HbA1c and S. Ferritin in type 2 DM. Methodology: The present study a total of 150 participants were enrolled of which 100 were confirmed cases of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and rest 50 age and sex matched healthy subjects constituted the control group. All were screened for HbA1c, Fasting blood sugar, Post prandial blood sugar and S.Ferritin. Results: A highly significant variation and positive correlation was observed with respect to S.Ferritin and HbA1c levels. Mean S.Ferritin was high in the subgroup with poor glycemic control. Conclusion: The fasting, post prandial sugar levels, HbA1c and S.Ferritin were significantly higher in the diabetic subjects. This study shows a positive correlation between HbA1c and S. Ferritin levels. So we can conclude that in diabetic patients S. Ferritin may serve as an independent marker of poor glycemic and metabolic control. Keywords: Serum ferritin, Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, HbA1c.

Diabetes mellitus is one of the most common comorbid illnesses seen in adults and elderly individual. Its prevalence rate is increasing globally and in India. 7.1 % of the total population is affected with diabetes. The present study is a community based cross sectional study to investigate the relationship between alcohol consumption and diabetes incidence among young adults. 120 participants were recruited through purposive sampling. Fasting blood sugar and post prandial blood sugar level were taken to identify the diabetic profile. The data were collected and analyzed by using descriptive statistics and results showed that there is a strong association exit between these parameters. Keywords: Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, Alcohol Consumption, Young Adult, Mangalore

The increasing prevalence of diabetes mellitus (DM) in Indonesia requires participation of all parties including pharmacists. This study aims to determine the impact of the implementation of home pharmacy service guidelines for patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus on the level of knowledge, medication adherence, therapeurical satisfaction and glycemic control. This study used a quasi-experimental design with one group pre-test and post-test design involving 37 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who met the requirements of inclusion and exclusion criterias. The Diabetes Knowledge Questionnaire (DKQ-24) and the Diabetes Medication Satisfaction Tool (DMSAT) were used for collecting the data. Patient adherence was measured using a pillcount method and fasting blood sugar levels (FSB) data were obtained from the laboratory results. The study was conducted in two community health centers and patient’s home in the Yogyakarta Municipality area. The data were analysed using Wilcoxon and Spearman test. The results showed the change of the level of knowledge, medication adherence, therapeutic satisfaction and glycemic control before and after intervention of pharmacy services at home. The average decreasing of fasting blood sugar levels 17.09 mg/dL ± 1.43

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycemia due to insufficient secretion or action of insulin.Elevated oxidative stress and diminished antioxidants may play an important role to develop T2DM and its complications. Aldose reductase (AR) enzyme plays a key role in the reduction of glucose to sorbitol by Polyol pathway. To estimate the AR activity and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels and in patients with T2DM. In this case-control study, a total number of 60 subjects (30 T2DM and 30 age-matched controls) wererecruited.Fasting blood sugar (FBS), Post-Prandial blood sugar (PPBS), AR activity and MDA levels were estimated in all the subjects. The AR activity was estimated by nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate hydrogen (NADPH) oxidation method. The plasma MDA levels were estimated by the thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) method. For Statistical analysis, all the data were compared between the two groups by using unpaired t-test. Pearson correlation coefficient was calculated among T2DM. A P value <0.05 was considered as statistically significant for all data analyzed. The mean of FBS, PPBS, AR activity, and MDA levels were found significantly high in T2DM as compared to controls (P<0.001, P<0.001, P<0.001, P<0.001, respectively). A significant positive correlation was found between FBS and PPBS among T2DM (r=0.71, P<0.01). However, There was no significant correlation found between AR activity and MDA level among T2DM (r=0.002, P>0.05). Results showed thatthe mean of FBS, PPBS, AR activity, and MDA levels were found significantly higher in T2DM than controls. There was no significant correlation found between AR activity and MDA level among T2DM.

We have investigated twenty five patients with type-2 diabetes mellitus aged (35-60) years and fifteen healthy persons as control group to detect Anti-Helicobacter pylori IgG antibody. All studied groups were carried out to measure fasting blood sugar, anti- Glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD), anti-? islets cells antibody by IFAT, Anti-H. pylori IgG antibody by ELISA technique. There was significant elevation in the concentration of fasting blood sugar than in control group (P < 0.05), the patients had negative results for anti-GAD antibody and anti- ? islets cells antibody, there were significant differences (P < 0.05) of anti-H. pylori IgG antibody in 28 % of patients had type-2 diabetes than control group. This lead to suggestion that type -2 diabetes mellitus patients are more susceptible to H. pylori .
