BACKGROUND: Hair is a dead tissue and is composed of keratin and related proteins. Hair is a protein offew growing cells at the base of the hair root. If the patient is diabetic glycosylation occurs in these growingcells.Since the extent of glycation of hair protein varies with the distance from the hair root, we hypothesizedthat glycation of hair protein might provide insight into blood glucose level over a period of several mouthsto one year.So hemoglobin Ale (HbAIc) may be established as an indicator of long-term blood glucosecontrol in diabetic patients. It is formed by non-enzymatic reaction of glucose with Hb.The objective of thisstudy was to estimate the furosine(an intermediate in the breaking down of amadori compounds likeglycosylated proteins) level by HPLC of glycosylated hair proteins, to find interrelation of fasting glucosewith HbAIc and furosine in diabetic patients, to determine the efficacy of Glycosylation of HbA,c andfurosinemay be a reliable marker in diabetic patients.STUDY DESIGN: This study was carried out in the department of Biochemistry Basic Medical SciencesInstitute (BMSI) Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Centre Karachi.METHODS: A total of 200 subjects were included in the study. 100 diagnosed type II and 100 controlnormal subjects. Hair from the scalp 12 cm long and 50 mg in weight was collected from each subject tomeasure furosine level. Furosine level was determined by HPLC and HbAIc, FBSand serumprotein byenzymatic kit method.RESULTS: When the mean values were compared with that of control it depicted significantly high level(0.001) of furosine, HbAIc and FBS.CONCLUSION: The furosine, HbAIc and FBS levels increases in diabetic patients while total serumprotein were unaffected. Weight and BMI increases in diabetic but height was unaffected.KEYWORDS: Diabetes mellitus type II, furosine, HbAIc, fasting blood sugar, glycation ofhair protein

Background: Effective control of blood glucose and activities of antioxidant are key factors that prevent diabetes mellitus (DM) and its complications. There are lots of herbal plants that have those both effects. Ceplikan leaves (Ruellia tuberosa L.) is a traditional medicine which is empirically used to lower blood glucose level. Instead of antioxidant compound, there is assumed other compound in ceplikan leaves that has side effect to pancreatic beta cells.Objective: To identify the effect of ceplikan leaves extract to blood glucose level and pancreas histology description in white diabetic rats (Rattus norvegicus).Method: Thirty subjects of Wistar strain male white rats of 2-3 months old and of 150-200 grams weight were made diabetic with aloxan and randomly divided into 5 groups. Group I consisted of diabetic rats with aquadest, group II with glibenclamide, and Group III-V were given extract of ceplikan leaves in different concentrations that were 1.6 mg, 3.2 mg, and 6.4mg, respectively. Treatment was given orally per day within 30 days. Level of blood glucose was measured in the day of 0, 3, 4, and 30. Statistical analysis used repeated measures and t-test.Result: The supply of ceplikan leaves extract could reduce level of blood glucose of diabetic rats, although the decrease was insignificant. Average diameter of wider Langerhans island occurred to the group of diabetic rats that were given extract of ceplikan leaves dosage 6.4 mg. There was no significant difference (p > 0.05) in changes of blood glucose level before and after experiment in diabetic rats. Pancreas histological description of rats showed that there was improvement as indicated by greater quantity of Langerhans Island and wider diameter of Langerhans Island.Conclusion: Ceplikan leaves was safe and efficacious, so that self-medication of DM using ceplikan leaves could be sustained through formal approach.

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) belongs to a group of metabolic disorders. It is characterised by Chronic Hyperglycemia and disturbance of carbohydrate, lipid and protein metabolism. The cause for this condition arises from a disease in insulin secretion. The International Diabetes Federation (IDF) expresses that worldwide 415 million individuals have Diabetes Mellitus. It also predicts that by 2040 this will ascend to 642 billion. The other prediction is that 77% of individuals with Diabetes live in middle and low-income countries. 12% of the worldwide population spend on the treatment of Diabetes. With the escalating medical expenditure in treating Diabetes, a person from middle or low income may find it challenging to meet the expenses. It is an expected tendency for an individual from this category to opt for a more straightforward treatment that suits their pocket. In the recent past, all over the world, people from all walks of life know essential things about natural remedies. A lot of researches are going on in support of using natural products per se. One such study is this – on the Effectiveness of Coriander Seed Extract in decreasing Blood Glucose level among Diabetic Patients.Coriandrum Sativum is a plant that has been utilised in the administration of Diabetes. It is a herbaceous plant originally from the Mediterranean and Middle Eastern locales, having a place in the family Apiaceae. It is known to have antifungal, antibacterial, free radical searching, and lipid peroxidation activities. The study was conducted to assess the level of pretest and posttest blood glucose level. And, also to evaluate the effect of coriander seed extract in the treatment of Diabetes Mellitus. An experimental study was chosen to assess the effectiveness of coriander seed extract among diabetic clients. The present study was conducted at Mappedu. 60 male and female who come under inclusion criteria were selected by purposive sampling technique. Data was collected by using a socio-demographic variable, and random blood glucose was assessed by CBG machine. The results revealed that coriander seed extract has a significant effect on decreasing blood glucose level among diabetic patients.

Diabetes mellitus is metabolic syndrome characterized by disorder in metabolism of carbon hydrates, lipids and proteins. The diagnosis of diabetes is established by measuring the blood glucose level using standardized methods. Frequent monitoring of blood glucose level could be inconvenient for patients because of possible pain during blood sample taking. In the last few years biological materials with non invasive sampling, like saliva, have been analyzed. Research has confirmed that some organic and inorganic components of saliva are modified in diabetic patients (glucose, lipid and protein components, oxidative stress markers, electrolytes). Beside other markers, the analysis of glucose in saliva is an attempt to find a non-invasive and painless way for frequent monitoring of glucose concentration in diabetic patients. Collecting saliva is simple and economical, it neither requires expensive equipment nor specially trained staff. Saliva can be taken many times and in unlimited quantity. In regards to the data about the possibilities for using saliva as biological sample in monitoring diabetes mellitus, which could be alternative to blood serum or plasma, the conclusion is that saliva becomes more important in this context.

Diabetes Mellitus occurs when the pancreas fails to produce sufficient insulin, or the body is unable to use the insulin produced effectively. In order to regulate the blood glucose of diabetic patients, Diabegard®, a herbal antidiabetic medicine and daily supplement, contains polypeptide-k which exists in the seed of Momordica Charantia (bitter gourd) was prescribed. Purpose: A retrospective study is therefore done with the aim to examine the effectiveness of Diabegard®, polypeptide-k in regulating the blood glucose and cholesterol level of diabetic patients who took Diabegard® for four weeks with a dose of 60 mg per day. Methods: A database record of 105 male and 37 female (ages 25-81) treated with Diabegard®, polypeptide-k was assessed. The effectiveness of Diabegard®, polypeptide-k in blood glucose regulation was determined based on four aspects: gender, three different age categories, four different categories of duration of the disease and five different categories of severity of the disease. The Pearson's correlation was used to find the correlation among variables. Paired sample t-test was used to compare the means of pre- and post-treatment of blood glucose level. One-way ANOVA was used to compare the means of different groups for each aspect. Results: Result showed that age and duration of disease (r2=0.469), pre-treatment of blood glucose and post-treatment of blood glucose (r2=0.606) showed positive relationship. Both paired sample T-test of pre-and post-treatment of blood glucose showed significant difference (p<0.05). Categories with very mild (7 mmol/L), severe (13.9-19.4mmol/L) and very severe (>19.4mmol/L) diabetes showed significant difference (p<0.05). Other tests showed no significant difference. Conclusion: In conclusion, this present retrospective study showed that Diabegard®, polypeptide-k was effective in controlling blood glucose level of all diabetic patients especially in patients with mild (26.87% reduction), severe (40.43% reduction) and very severe diabetes (49.27% reduction).

This cross-sectional survey was carried out during the period, October 2005 to December 2005, among 184 randomly chosen diabetic patients in Khulna Diabetic Centre, Khulna, Bangladesh, to evaluate the knowledge of the patients for their control of diabetes mellitus and also to explore the association(s) of their attitude and knowledge regarding diabetic awareness towards educational status and socio-demographic profile. In this study, we found a significant difference, in diabetic awareness to keep correct blood glucose level, in different educational group. But, it did not influence the subjects of different educational group to visit the diabetic clinic. There was no significant difference in the knowledge of correct blood glucose level and in regularity of visit to the diabetic clinic, in rural and urban people. Knowledge of correct blood glucose level varied significantly among male and female patients, although, no significant variation was found among them in visiting to the diabetic clinic. We can conclude that, diabetic education programs can improve self-regulatory behavior and in the long run, can reduce morbidity and mortality.   doi:10.3329/jom.v10i3.2008 J Medicine 2009; 10 (Supplement 1): 7-10

Abstract The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between periodontal disease and the blood glucose level among type II non-insulin dependent diabetic mellitus (NIDDM) subjects. Forty subjects, 20 in each group, of healthy and diabetic subjects, ages ranged 20-70 years, were examined at King Saud University, College of Dentistry. Clinical examination included frequency of oral hygiene practices, periodontal status by using the Community Periodontal Index of Treatment Needs (CPITN), fasting blood glucose level (FBGL), and random blood glucose level (RBGL). Unstandardized orthopantomograms (OPGs) were taken for radiographic findings. The number of missing teeth (tooth loss) was assessed from the radiographs. The results showed that periodontal disease severity was high among diabetic subjects. Diabetic subjects brushed less frequently, and they had a higher blood glucose level than healthy subjects. The mean CPITN score was compared with mean blood glucose level and the severity of periodontal disease. There was a steady increase in blood glucose level with increase in CPITN scores, i.e., CPITN score 13.5 to 19.12 corresponded with 142 mg/dl and 173.2 mg/dl FBGL, and 184.2 and 199.12 mg/dl RBGL among diabetic subjects. The study indicated that diabetic subjects should improve their oral hygiene practices and control of blood glucose levels should be emphasized. Further studies are needed among diabetics and healthy subjects from the general population with better sampling techniques and a larger sample size.
