Diabetes Melitus

Diabetes melitus (DM) merupakan penyakit tidak menular dengan insidensi terus meningkat setiap tahunnya. Salah satu komplikasi DM tersering adalah nefropati diabetik yang ditandai dengan albuminuria. Sodium glucose co-transporter (SGLT-2) inhibitor merupakan golongan obat antidiabetik yang bersifat insulin independen dan diharapkan menurunkan kejadian kerusakan fungsi ginjal. Kurangnya penelitian dan informasi obat golongan ini di Indonesia menyebabkan peneliti melakukan penelitian dengan tujuan mengetahui efektivitas pemberian obat golongan SGLT-2 inhibitor pada pasien DM tipe 2 terhadap penurunan kejadian albuminuria. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah scoping review, dengan bahan penelitian artikel dari jurnal internasional yang memenuhi kriteria inklusi dan eksklusi. Artikel ini kemudian diseleksi menggunakan diagram PRISMA dengan mempertimbangkan Population (DM tipe 2), Intervention (pemberian SGLT-2 inhibitor), Comparison (plasebo atau anti diabetik lain), Outcome (penurunan albuminuria), Study (RCT dan Cohort retrospective). Didapatkan dari 13 artikel bahwa obat SGLT-2 inhibitor yang digunakan bervariasi yaitu canagliflozon (6), empagliflozin (3), dapagliflozin (2), ertugliflozin (2), dan yang tersering digunakan adalah canagliflozin ditemukan pada 6 artikel (50%). Golongan obat SGLT-2 inhibitor memiliki kecenderungan yang sama, dapat ditoleransi dengan baik dan efektif dalam menurunkan kejadian albuminuria melalui mekanisme perubahan hemodinamik ginjal, dengan urin albumin-kreatinin rasio (UACR) sebagai parameter. Scoping ReviewSGLT-2 Inhibitors Effective to Reduce Albuminuria in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a non-communicable disease with an increasing incidence every year. One of the most common complications of DM is diabetic nephropathy which is characterized by albuminuria. Sodium-glucose co-transporter (SGLT-2) Inhibitors is a class of anti-diabetic drugs that are insulin-independent and expected to reduce the incidence of impaired kidney function. The aim of this study was to ensure the effectiveness of SGLT-2 inhibitor drug administration in type 2 DM patients to reduce the incidence of albuminuria. The method used is scoping review, with research articles from international journals sorted by the inclusion and exclusion criteria. These articles was selected using the PRISMA diagram by considering Population (DM type 2), Intervention (administration of SGLT-2 inhibitors), Comparison (placebo or other anti-diabetic), Outcome (decreased albuminuria), Study (RCT and retrospective cohort). It was obtained from 13 articles that the SGLT-2 inhibitor drugs used varied, canagliflozon (6), empagliflozin (3), dapagliflozin (2), ertugliflozin (2), and the most commonly used was Canagliflozin found in 6 articles (50%). The SGLT-2 inhibitor class of drugs has the same tendency, well-tolerated, and effective in reducing the incidence of albuminuria through the mechanism of renal hemodynamic changes, with urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) as a parameter.

Non Communicable Disease

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a non-communicable disease and still a health problem in the world. Melatonin is responsible to metabolize carbohydrate and regulate blood sugar levels. Several studies proved Melatonin is useful in the diabetes therapy and its complication by performing antioxidant activity through various signaling pathways. The role of the melatonin hormone in the pathogenesis of complications of diabetes mellitus is still a lot of controversy. Animal studies are still incomplete to explain the mechanism of action of melatonin. Therefore, this review aims to discuss Melatonin role administration in DM and its complications. This review was started by searching articles using electronic databases such as Google Scholar, Science Direct, SpringerLink and Pubmed between 2009-2019. Melatonin increased respiration within mitochondria; acted as antioxidant that fight free radical production; and reduced oxidative stress. It diminished proinflammatory cytokines in diabetes and prevents various DM complications on eyes, cardiac and male reproductive organs through antioxidant effects. It inhibited proinflammatory within several signaling Pathways, included PI3K/Akt-Nrf2,cGMP-PKG, Nrf-2-HO-1 and MAPK, Syk, p38MAPK pathways. There are various melatonin roles in diabetes and DM complications as a promising new breakthrough of DM treatment. It is necessary to explore Melatonin role in other DM complications. Most of this research is on experimental animals, thus clinical trial studies should be carried out in humans to make melatonin a promising therapeutic or prevention for diabetes and its complications in the future

ObjectiveTo generate national estimates of key non-communicable disease (NCD) risk factors for adolescents (15–17 years) identified in the National NCD Monitoring Framework and, study the knowledge, attitudes and practices towards NCD risk behaviours among school-going adolescents.Design and settingA community-based, national, cross-sectional survey conducted during 2017–2018. The survey was coordinated by the Indian Council of Medical Research—National Centre for Disease Informatics and Research with 10 reputed implementing research institutes/organisations across India in urban and rural areas.ParticipantsA multistage sampling design was adopted covering ages between 15 and 69 years—adolescents (15–17 years) and adults (18–69 years). The sample included 12 000 households drawn from 600 primary sampling units. All available adolescents (15–17 years) from the selected households were included in the survey.Main outcome measuresKey NCD risk factors for adolescents (15–17 years)—current tobacco and alcohol use, dietary behaviours, insufficient physical activity, overweight and obesity.ResultsOverall, 1402 households and 1531 adolescents completed the survey. Prevalence of current daily use of tobacco was 3.1% (95% CI: 2.0% to 4.7%), 25.2% (95% CI: 22.2% to 28.5%) adolescents showed insufficient levels of physical activity, 6.2% (95% CI: 4.9% to 7.9%) were overweight and 1.8% (95% CI: 1.0% to 2.9%) were obese. Two-thirds reported being imparted health education on NCD risk factors in their schools/colleges.ConclusionThe survey provides baseline data on NCD-related key risk factors among 15–17 years in India. These national-level data fill information gaps for this age group and help assess India’s progress towards NCD targets set for 2025 comprehensively. Though the prevalence of select risk factors is much lower than in many developed countries, this study offers national evidence for revisiting and framing appropriate policies, strategies for prevention and control of NCDs in younger age groups.

This paper examines how socio-demographic and health-lifestyle factors determine participation and duration of leisure-time physical activity in Malaysia. Based on the Malaysia Non-Communicable Disease Surveillance-1 data, Heckman's sample selection model is employed to estimate the probability to participate and duration on physical activity. Results indicate that gender, age, years of education and family illness history are significant in explaining participation probability in leisure-time physical activity. Gender, income level, smoking-status and years of education are significant in explaining the weekly duration conditional on participation, whereas smoking-status and years of education are significant in determining the unconditional level of leisure-time physical activity.

Diabetes Melitus

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a state of chronically hyperglycemia, which is caused by impaired insulin secretion and function. Thealteration in coagulation system in DM patients served as the basic etiology of macro and micro vascular complication. Platelets are oneof the factors that have a role in the coagulation system and undergo pathological changes in DM patients. Mean Platelet Volume (MPV)is an indicator of platelet function and activation. Larger platelets have more dense and more reactive pro coagulant granules. The aimof this study was to know whether there were differences in MPV between DM patients compared to medical check-up participants atthe Dr. Hasan Sadikin Hospital, Bandung.. The research used analytical descriptive, retrospective data. The inclusion criteria of thisresearch was DM patients and medical check up participants whose serum fasting glucose and two (2) hours post prandial serum glucosewere within the normal range. The data were taken from medical records of DM patients and medical check up participants. The datawere further analyzed with SPSS ver. 15 program using unpaired T-test. In this study, no significant difference between DM patientsand medical check up participants (p>0.05) was found. It can be concluded that Mean Platelet Volume if used as single, can not predictvascular complication in DM patients.
