Background: Obesity is a global challenge all over the world. Body mass index is a good marker to measure the adiposity. Obesityis one of the important risk factors for type 2 diabetes mellitus. Normal random blood glucose levels are closely regulated in healthwith a normal range of 4.4-7.8mmol/l (79-140mg/dl), despite the varying demands of food, exercise and fasting. Many diabeticpatients are obese and studies suggest a strong association between the two.Objective: To find an association of BMI with blood glucose level in undergraduate healthy students of Ayub Medical CollegeMaterial and Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out in 2018, capillary blood samples were collected from 152students of Ayub Medical College Abbottabad to evaluate blood glucose level by Accu chek softclix® lancing device and Accu chekglucometer®, BMI was calculated by the formula (weight in kg/ height in meters squared). Data was collected and analyzed bySPSS version 23.Results: Total 152 (100%) healthy participants with 84 (55.3%) males and 68 (44.7%) females included in this study. Their ageswere ranged from 18-25 with a mean age of 21.02 years (min 17 max 26) having a standard deviation of 1.75. By taking thecorrelation between two parameters i.e. body mass index and serum random blood glucose level by Pearson product of moment(p=.214, r=101) a non-significant result was found.Conclusion: It is concluded that there is no significant association found between two parameters (BMI and serum BGL) in healthyyoung adults.

ABSTRACTThe increasing prevalence of overweight and obesity is associated with the increasing incident of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Obesity, especially abdominal obesity is an important risk factor for the onset of diabetes. The objective of this study was to determine the relationship between body mass index, waist circumference and waist hip ratio with blood glucose level. The study design was cross-sectional. The study population was elderly posyandu member aged 45 to 70 years in Menur clinic work area who were registered in elderly posyandu activities in May 2013. The numbers of sample were 60 respondents who drawn by simple random sampling method. The variabels of this study were the characteristics of respondent, body mass index, waist  circumference,  waist hip ratio and fasting blood glucose level. The study showed that respondents classified as overweight (38%), obesity (33, 3%), abdominal obesity based on waist circumference  (77.8%), abdominal obesity based on waist hip ratio (81,7 %) and blood glucose level more than 125 mg/dl (8.3%). Pearson correlation test showed that there was relationship between body mass index with blood sugar levels (p=0,007; r=0,345), between waist circumference with blood sugar levels (p=0,001; r=0,424) and  between waist hip ratio with blood sugar levels (p =0,002; r=0,392). Waist circumference as the strongest factor related to blood glucose level. Waist circumference measurement should be done in elderly posyandu activities to detect high-risk individuals with diabetes. Keywords: Diabetes, body mass index, waist circumference, waist hip ratio,                     blood glucose level

AbstrakHiperglikemia masih menjadi topik penelitian yang sering dihubungkan dengan kejadian sindrom koroner akut (SKA) di dunia, terutama hiperglikemia saat masuk rumah sakit. Hal ini didasari oleh beberapa pengaruh kadar glukosa darah yang tinggi terhadap sistem kardiovaskuler seperti gangguan fungsi ventrikel kiri, stroke volume yang menurun, regurgitasi katup mitral berulang, gangguan pada waktu pengisian diastolik hingga risiko tinggi untuk arritmia, serta hubungannya dengan peningkatan risiko trombosis. Sehingga semakin memperjelas pengaruh hiperglikemia yang tidak hanya dapat meningkatkan risiko terjadinya SKA, melainkan juga dapat memperburuk kondisi pasien SKA sendiri. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengidentifikasi hubungan kadar glukosa darah sewaktu dengan lama hari rawat pasien Sindrom Koroner Akut (SKA). Jenis penelitian yang digunakan adalah penelitian analitik dengan menggunakan desain penelitian Cross Sectional Study. Penelitian ini menggunakan data sekunder yang diambil di Instalasi Rekam Medik (Medical Record), yakni data rekam medik pasien yang didiagnosis sebagai Sindrom Koroner Akut (SKA) yang dirawat inap di Rumah Sakit Umum Pusat DR. M. Djamil Padang Periode Januari–Desember 2011. Ditemukan sebagian besar pasien SKA masuk rumah sakit dengan kadar Glukosa Darah Sewaktu (GDS) sebesar ≥ 200 mg/dl (40%) dan lama hari rawat sebesar ≥ 7 hari (52%). Dari hasil analisa bivariat dengan menggunakan uji korelasi Spearman ditemukan adanya hubungan searah antara kadar glukosa darah saat masuk rumah sakit dengan lama hari rawat pasien SKA dengan kekuatan hubungan yang sedang, r = +0,492, p = 0, 000 (p<0,05). Pemantauan terhadap kadar GDS yang diperiksa saat pasien masuk rumah sakit perlu dilakukan dan untuk penelitian yang akan datang diharapkan dapat diteliti lebih lanjut faktor-faktor lain yang mempengaruhi lama hari rawat pasien SKA.Kata kunci: Kadar glukosa darah saat masuk RS, lama hari rawatAbstractHyperglicemia is still become a research topic which is often associated with the incidence of Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) in the world, especially hyperglicemia on hospital admission. This is due to several effects of high random blood glucose to the cardiocasculer system for instance impaired left ventricular function, decreased stroke volume, reccurrent mitral valve regurgitation, impaired diastolic filling, high risk arrhytmias and its corelation with the increase thrombosis risk. This circumstance explains more about the effects of hyperglicemia that not only increase the risk of Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS), but can also worsen the Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) patients condition through a various of mechanisms. This research is purposed to identify the relation between hospital admission blood glucose level with length of stay of Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS). This research uses analytic research which is using cross sectional design. This research uses secondary data that is taken from the medical records of patients diagnosed as Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) admitted to RSUP DR. M. Djamil Padang from January until December 2011. Research found that the most of ACS patients admitted to the hospital with as random blood glucose of ≥200 mg/dl (40%) and length of stay for ≥7 days (52%). The results of bivariate analysis by using Spearman correlation test is obtained the correlation between hospital admission blood glucose level to length of stay ACS patients and the strength of correlation is moderate, r = +0,492 , p = 0, 000 (p<0,05). The monitoring of random glucose level of ACS patients upon hospitalization is necessary and for future studies the other factors that affect the length of stay of ACS patients should be considered.Keywords:Hospital admission blood glucose, length of stay

Background: In resource-limited countries like Bangladesh, there is a scarcity of epidemiological researches examining the relationship of blood glucose level with hypertension and BMI among the graduate level students. This research was therefore undertaken to evaluate fasting blood glucose levels of Mawlana Bhashani Science and Technology University students and to check its associations with sex, body mass index (BMI) and hypertension. Methods: For the study the 240 students (120 male and 120 female) were randomly selected. The demographic data of the study subjects were collected by interviewing the subjects with standardized questionnaires. Their fasting blood glucose levels were measured using portable blood glucose meter. The BMI and blood pressure of the subjects were also recorded following standard protocol. Finally the data were analyzed with SPSS software. Results: The fasting blood glucose levels of the study subjects indicated that 0.4% of subjects were diabetic and, 5.4% of subjects were pre-diabetic. The blood glucose levels (mean±SE) of female subjects (4.88±0.07) were higher than that of the male (4.61±0.04) subjects. The mean blood glucose levels of hypertensive subjects (4.81±0.07 mmol/L) were higher than that of the normotensive counterpart (4.73±0.05 mmol/L). The fasting blood glucose levels shows significant positive associations with SBP (r=0.155, p<0.05) and DBP (r=0.149, p<0.05).The fasting blood glucose levels also showed a significant positive association with the BMI (r=0.193, p<0.01) of the subjects. Conclusions: This study reveals the diabetic and hypertension status of the Bangladeshi graduate level students. The result of the study is very important in the context of public concern health of Bangladesh.

Objectives: To establish the association of raised LDL levels withvarious risk factors causing cerebral ischemia in stroke patients. Background: Cerebrovascular accident (CVA) is a health concern worldwide. Itcauses enormous disabilities in adult age group, and is 2ndcommonest cause of deaths throughout the world. It has been established thatapproximately 15 million people succumb to stroke each year worldwide, out of this 5 million don’t survive and another 5 million become permanently handicapped and thus put significant burden on catering families. This study was conducted to identify contribution of different risk factorsin causing ischemic stroke in our population. Study Design: Descriptive, purposive case series study. Setting: Medical Unit-IV, Nishtar Medical College/Hospital, Multan. Period: One Year tenure spread between January 2017 to December 2017. Material and Methods: 205 cases between 40-70 years of age includingboth male and female patients with ischemic stroke, irrespective of disease duration were included in study. History of raised BP, previous stroke, history of stroke in family, diabetes and smoking was recorded on pre-designed questionnaire. Body mass index was calculated after noting weight and height of the patient.Venous blood (5 ml) sample was drawn and sent to the pathology laboratory of Nishtar Hospital Multan for estimation of serum LDL level and blood glucose level. Results: Of these 205 study cases, 92 (44.9%) patients were male while 113 (55.1%) patients were female. Mean age of patients in our setting was noted to 51.58 ± 8.05 years. In our study, 50 (24.4%) patients were smokers and 40 (19.5%) had history of hypertension. In our setting, family history of stroke was present in 39 (19%) and previous history of stroke was found in 31 (15.1%). Mean body mass index of our patients was calculated to be 23.17± 2.85 kg/m2and 30(14.6%) cases were obese in our study. Mean fasting blood glucose level was 118.32 ± 23.21 mg/dl(48 (23.4%) had diabetes). Mean low density lipoprotein level (LDL) noted in our study was 109.59 ± 49.15 mg/dl and raised level of LDL was seen in 88 (42.9%) of our study cases. Conclusion: By identifying the share of various risk factors contributing in ischemic stroke, we can target population at risk of ischemic stroke and strict control and regulation of modifiable risk factors we can prevent this ominous condition to occur. Our study results point towards early diagnosis which will ultimately lead to proper management to improve clinical outcome in such patients. Raised levels of LDL were significantly associated with gender, diabetes, hypertension, obesity, family history and previous history of stroke.
