Background: Stroke in patients of Diabetes Mellitus is a common complication all over the world. The present study was done with the aim to assess the blood glucose level in acute stroke patients of Manipur and find out any correlation with types, size and prognosis of different glycaemic group. Method: The study was a prospective cross-sectional study of all patients who were admitted as acute stroke in Medicine ward, Jawaharlal Nehru Institute of Medical Sciences (JNIMS), Imphal, Manipur. Clinical parameter including History and clinical examination findings were recorded. CT scan of brain, blood glucose level, HbA1c were taken in all the patients. Results: Of 109 patients of acute stroke patients included in the study, 34 were known cases of Diabetes, 10 were newly detected Diabetes cases summing up to a total of 64 cases of Diabetes, 44 of the cases had stress hyperglycaemia and 21 were euglycaemic. Maximum cases consisted of ischaemic strokes (84.4%) and maximum number of haemorrhagic strokes falls under the known diabetes group.None of the euglycaemic patients had any large sized lesions, maximum of them (89.5%) had small sized lesions. Most of the stress glycaemia patients had medium sized strokes while the known diabetes and newly detected diabetes groups had no case of small sized lesion with the maximum large sized lesions occurring in the known diabetes group (78.9%). Clinical outcome was worst in poor glucose control group with 70.3% fatality in this group while maximum clinical improvement was seen in Non-Diabetics (84.6%) consisting of euglycaemia and stress hyperglycaemia groups. Conclusion: There was a good correlation with admission day hyperglycaemia with the size of the stroke lesion in all cases of stroke. The diabetes especially poor glucose control group is associated with increased size of the stroke lesion, severity and poor clinical outcome. Keywords: Stroke, diabetes mellitus, stress hyperglycaemia, euglycaemia.

<p><strong>Introduction</strong>: The prevalence of stroke in Indonesia increased from 8.3 per 1000 population in 2007 to 12.1 per 1000 population in 2013, based on Riset Kesehatan Dasar (RISKESDAS) 2013. Diabetes mellitus (DM) is an independent risk factor and can be modified. Hyperglycemia that occurs in the acute phase of stroke is associated with an increase in mortality and poor clinical outcome after stroke. Moreover, stroke patients are at risk of developing hypoalbuminemia due to poor intake and the presence of a chronic inflammatory process.<br /><strong>Methods:</strong> A 66-year-old female patient with third recurrent ischemic stroke, history of uncontrolled DM, conciousness based on GCS is E3M5Vaphasia, Nasogastric tube (NGT) was inserted and there was a right facial nerve paralysis and bilateral hemiparesis . Nutritional status of patient is obese-1. During follow up period, the patient's blood glucose level ranged from 194 g/dl-345 g/dl. Nutrition therapy is given with a target of 1350 kcal (32 kcal/kg). Its composition consists of 15% protein, 25% fat and 60% carbohydrate (preferred complex carbohydrates), in the form of DM-specific formula containing inulin and monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA). This nutritional therapy was administrated six times per day via enteral pathway, followed by the administration of micronutrients of vitamins C, B and folic acid.<br /><strong>Result:</strong> During follow up period, the patient tolerated well with the diet. After the 14 days hospitalization, there was improvement of blood glucose level (&lt;200 g/dL). Albumin level increases from 2.5 g/dL to 2.9 g/dl by the nutritional therapy containing protein more than 1.2 g/kg/day.<br /><strong>Conclusion:</strong> Administering a diet with the recommended composition and formula helps control hyperglycemia and improve hypoalbuminemia in patients that can improve the patient's clinical condition.</p>

Despite the fact that glucose is the main fuel of the brain, hyperglycemia at hospital admission is generally associated with a poor functional outcome in stroke patients. This paradox may be explained by the lack of information about the blood glucose level at stroke onset. Here, we analyzed the metabolome of blood cells entrapped in cerebral thrombi to gain insight into their metabolism at stroke onset. Fourty-one consecutive stroke patients completely recanalized by mechanical thrombectomy within 6 h were included. The metabolome of retrieved thrombi was analyzed by liquid chromatography tandem with mass spectrometry. Discriminant Analysis (sparse Partial Least Squares Discriminant Analysis (sPLS-DA)) was performed to identify classification models and significant associated features of favorable clinical outcome at 3 months (modified Rankin Scale (mRS) < 2). sPLS-DA of the metabolomes of cerebral thrombi discriminated between stroke patients with a favorable or poor clinical outcome (Area Under the Curve (AUC) = 0.992 (0.931–1)). In addition, our results revealed that high sorbitol and glucose levels in the thrombi positively correlated with favorable clinical outcomes. Sorbitol, a short-term glycemic index reflecting a high blood glucose level at stroke onset, was found to be an independent predictor of good outcome (AUC = 0.908 (0.807–0.995)). This study demonstrates that a high blood glucose level at stroke onset is beneficial to the clinical outcome of the patient.

Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disease which indicated with increasing blood glucose level. Carbohidrate, protein, mineral and secondary metabolite (alkaloid, tannin and saponin) can be benefical to treat diabetes mellitus. Rats were randomly divided into three groups. First, control group. Second, STZ group, untreated diabetic. Third, STZ+GA 15% group, diabetic treated with GA 15%. Result showed that blood glucose level before STZ induction on control and STZ group within normal range 78,57±11,90 mg/dL and 74,85±6,86 mg/dL. Blood glucose level significantly increase after STZ induction on STZ and STZ+GA 15% group become 375±6,53 mg/dL and 346,42±50,23 mg/dL. Diabetic rat treated with GA 15% revealed decrease in blood glucose level compared to untreated diabetic rat. Blood glucose level on STZ+GA 15% group continuously decrease become 96,42±13,45 mg/dL and 82,14±9,19 mg/dL. In conclusion, GA 15% could reduce blood glucose level on diabetic rat.

Diabetes mellitus is a heterogeneous group of syndromes characterized by an elevation of blood glucose caused by a relative or absolute deficiency of insulin. The incidence of diabetes is growing rapidly worldwide. Drug treatment for diabetes mellitus is expensive and carries risks for many adverse effects. Bangladesh is a rich emporium of medicinal plants useful in the treatment of diabetes. The study was performed to investigate the blood glucose lowering effect of Swietenia mahagoni seeds in experimentally induced diabetic rats. Twenty four healthy Long Evans Norwegian strain of rats were included in the study and divided into four groups (A, B, C and D) comprising 6 rats each. Diabetes was induced by alloxan (120 mg/kg body weight). Administration of ethanolic extract of Swietenia mahagoni seeds (group-B) produced no significant change in the blood glucose level as compared to control (group-A). Administration of ethanolic extract of Swietenia mahagoni seeds in group-D produced a significant reduction in blood glucose level as compared to diabetic control (group-C). Histological examination of pancreas showed destruction of beta cells in Islets of pancreas in group-C whereas retaining of islets and few degranulations of beta cells of pancreas found in group-D. These observations and results provide information that ethanolic extract of Swietenia mahagoni seeds has hypoglycaemic effect in experimentally induced diabetic rats which requires further investigation.

Abstract Objective To investigate the effects of intermittently scanned continuous glucose monitoring (isCGM) on blood glucose control, clinical value of blood glucose monitoring and production of urinary ketone bodies in pregestational diabetes mellitus. Method A total of 124 patients with pregestational diabetes mellitus at 12–14 weeks of gestation admitted to the gestational diabetes clinic of our hospital from December 2016 to December 2018 were selected and randomly divided into two groups. Sixty patients adopted self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) were taken as the control group, and the other 64 patients adopted isCGM system by wearing the device for 14 days. Blood sugar control, glycosylated albumin level, ketone production in urine, the maximum and minimum of blood sugar value measured by different monitoring methods and their occurrence time were observed in the two groups. Result (1) No statistically significant differences were found between the groups in terms of maternal age, gestational age at first visit, family history, duration of diabetes, education level, total insulin dose, chronic hypertension, abortion history, nulliparity, assisted reproductive technology, history of macrosomia childbirth, pre-pregnancy BMI, and overweight (%) at the first visit and hypoglycemia, (2) the value of Glycated Albumin was lower in the CGM group compared to the control group at 2ed weeks (14.6 ± 2.2 vs. 16.8 ± 2.7, p < 0.001). The women in the CGM group spent increased time in the recommended glucose control target range of 3.5–7.8 mmol/L (69 ± 10% vs. 62 ± 11%, p < 0.001) and reduced time above target compared with those in the control group at 2 weeks (25 ± 7% vs. 31 ± 8%, p < 0.001). In the second week of the study, the positive rate of urinary ketone body in isCGM group was lower than that in the control group (42 ± 5 vs. 54 ± 5, p < 0.001), and (3) the minimum blood glucose of 31.2% (20/64) cases in isCGM group appeared during 0:00–2:59 at night, and 26.6% (17/64) cases appeared during 3:00–5:59 at night. The minimum values of 40.0% (24/60) cases in the control group appeared within the 30 min before lunch, 23.3% (14/60) within the 30 min before breakfast, and 11.7% (7/60) within the 30 min before dinner. The cases of minimum of blood sugar before meals accounted for 75% of all the minimum values, and the cases of minimum at night only accounted for 8.3%. Conclusion Intermittently scanned continuous glucose monitoring can reduce hyperglycemia exposure and ketone body formation in pregestational diabetes mellitus. In addition, isCGM is better than SMBG in detecting nocturnal hypoglycemia.

Background: The prevalence of diabetes mellitus (DM) is increasing globally, including in Indonesia. Studies by Diabetes Control and Complication Trial (DCCT) and U.K. Prospective Diabetes Study Group (UKPDS) prove the benefit of medical nutrition therapy (MNT) to glycemic control. Similar studies have not been done much in Indonesia.Objective: To identify the effects of MNT to nutrient intake, control of nutrition status, blood glucose and blood pressure of type 2 DM outpatients.Method: This was a randomized controlled trial. Subject of the study consisted of 60 people. The experiment group got MNT; whereas the control group got conventional nutrition counseling. Data were processed using computer, nutrients were analyzed using nutrisurvey. Statistical t-test was done to identify the effect of intervention.Result: Intake of energy, fat and carbohydrate of the experiment group decreased signifcantly close to the necessity at subsequent decrease as much as -14.05 (p= 0. 009), -35.64 (p=0.019) and -19.14 (p=0.035). Body mass index In the experiment group decreased -0.41kg/m  and waist circumference -0.24cm, where as the control group -0.23 kg/m  and -014cm. Blood glucose level during fasting decreased -23.6 mg/dl in the experiment group and -14.03 mg/dl in the control group (p=0.036). Systolic and dyastolic blood pressure of the experiment group decreased -3.33 mmHg (p=0.035) and 2 2 -1.67 mmgHg (p=0.895), whereas the control group + 0.5 mmHg  and -1.33 mmHg; the change was insignificant.Conclusion: Intake of nutrient, nutrition status, blood glucose level and blood pressure of type 2 DM patients that got MNT was more controllable than of those that got conventional nutrition counseling.
