Prevalence of diabetes mellitus and affecting factors of diabetes mellitus in adult age group in Van province

Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a chronic, debilitating disease characterized by insulin resistance, impaired insulin secretion and hyperglycemia. It represents more than 90% of total prevalence of diabetes in the world and is responsible for 9% of the global mortality corresponding to four million deaths per year. The objective of the study was to assess the prevalence of diabetes mellitus type-2 in a rural population of age 30 years and above.Methods: A community based cross sectional study carried out in population 30 years and above in rural area of Khammam district in Telangana during the study period from 1st January to 31st December 2015. A total of 910 persons aged 30 years or more were included in study.Results: Near about 74 (8.1%) were diagnosed as type -2 diabetes mellitus. The prevalence of DM was 16.22% in 30-40 years age group, 24.32% in 41-50 years age group, 43.34% in 51-60 years age group and 16.2% in 61-70 years age group which shows that DM increases with age and the association between age and prevalence of type 2 DM was found to be statistically significant.Conclusions: There is a need to increase awareness of type–2 diabetes mellitus in the general population. Health education should be given in terms of risk factors of diabetes. They should be made aware about early screening methods.

Sensory Polyneuropathy

With the increasing prevalence of Diabetes mellitus especially in the middle age group, the chances of developing neuro-vascular complications are very high. One such complication is Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy / Distal Symmetric sensory Polyneuropathy (DSPN). Diabetes mellitus can be correlated to Madhumeha and its complication Peripheral neuropathy to that of Twak-gata vata. Twakgata vata is one such vatavyadhi which can manifest in a Madhumeha Rogi. According to Acharya Charaka, Prakupita vata localized in twak brings about dryness of skin, skin cracks open, numbness in that part, emaciation, black discolouration, pricking type of pain, a feeling of stretching in that part, redness, and pain in small joints. Charaka has explained the special reason for the manifestation of a vatavyadhi. He says that depending upon the specific cause and site the aggravated vata produces different types of vyadhis, like twak-gata vata, raktagata vata, etc. Though, Daha as a lakshana has not been mentioned under Twakgata vata lakshanas, when there is anubandha of vata with pitta, daha is seen. Sushruta says in rasa-rakta etc., if vata gets associated with other doshas it produces various disorders. Ex: If there is daha, then association of vata with pitta should be inferred.

Prevalence Of Diabetes Mellitus

Aim:Due to the chronic nature of diabetes mellitus and its dangerous effects on people, it is moving towards epidemic proportions. We proposed this work for evaluating the predictive measure of diabetic population of India, Pakistan and world. In this work diabetic people of age 20-79 years are considered as this age group is suffering more by this disease. The aim of this study is to estimate the prevalence of diabetes in these two nations covering all the regions of the country. Materials and Methods: Mathematical analysis has been done for showing the rapid prevalence of diabetic population of age more that 20 years and less than 79 years. Karl Pearson’s coefficient of Correlation is calculated to find the relativity of prevalence of diabetic people of this age group of both the countries. Regression equations are evaluated to find the various predictive factors for the diabetic populations of countries. Results: The study represented the value of the coefficient of correlation between the diabetic population of India and Pakistan is 0.89, between India and world is 0.77 and between Pakistan and world is 0.98. All these values are positive. Conclusion: The Pearson correlation coefficient test showed that there is a positive and strong correlation between diabetic population (20-79 years age) in both the countries as well as in world. From Regression equation future prediction of increasing number of diabetic patients can be made.

Diabetes Mellitus is one of the most common metabolic disorders with 1.82 times greater risk in edentulous patients than dentate patients. It is associated with complications like neuropathy, nephropathy, retinopathy, cardiovascular problems and periodontitis. They complain of burning sensation of the mouth and multiple ulcerations in the mouth. All these problems contribute to the failure of retention of complete denture. The aim of the study is to find the prevalence of diabetes mellitus in complete denture patients. Case records of 89,000 patients who visited the hospital between June 2019- April 2020 were retrieved and reviewed. This university setting study involved 351 complete denture patients. Data was tabulated with parameters - name, age, gender, medical history of diabetes or with other systemic diseases. Data was imported to SPSS for statistical analysis. Descriptive statistics and chi-square tests were done. 26.5% of the complete denture patients had diabetes mellitus. Males were found to be slightly more prevalent than females. The most common age group affected was 60-75 years age group. Chi-square test showed no significance between age or gender with diagnosis of diabetes. ( p-value >0.05). Diabetes mellitus is associated directly with edentulism with 26.5% of prevalence with this disease. The most common age group prevalent was in the age group of 60-75 years and commonly seen in males.
