EFFECT OF AGE AND GENDER ON SOME BIOCHEMICAL, HORMONES AND ADIPOCYTOKINES PARAMETERS IN IRAQI TYPE 2 DIABETES MELLITUS PATIENTS

Prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) tends to increasing worldwide. The main cause of death in type 2 DM is coronaryheart disease (CHD) and its mortality rate can increase 2 to 4 times compared to non-diabetics. One of the risk factors in CHD isdyslipidemia. To know the lipid profile based on age and gender and to assess the relation of total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, and TG levelto age. Descriptive retrospective study in patients with type 2 DM who are 45 years old and over. From 100 Type 2 DM patients, in theDepartment of Internal Medicine, Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo Hospital, Makassar, period of June to December 2005, the largest age groupwith dyslipidemia was > 59 years old, with increase LDL level, 32.73% in males and 46.67% in females. There was a significant relationbetween the in crease of TG (p = 0.03) and the decrease of HDL (p = 0.02) with age. Dyslipidemia in type 2 DM patients at age group> 59 years old was shown by an increase in LDL level. The increase of TG and decrease of HDL level were significant in all age groups.Restriction of this study was not to check the antilipidemic medicine used. Early dyslipidemia of Type 2 DM should be known by lipidfraction determination and further dyslipidemia study should be conducted to predict the risk of CHD.

The Impact

AbstractObjectivePhysical co-morbidity including type 2 diabetes mellitus is more prevalent in patients with schizophrenia compared to the general population. However, there is little consistent evidence that co-morbidity with diabetes mellitus and/or other diseases leads to excess mortality in schizophrenia. Thus, we investigated whether co-morbidity with diabetes and other somatic diseases is increased in schizophrenics, and if these are equally or more relevant predictors of mortality in schizophrenia than in age- and gender-matched hospitalised controls.MethodsDuring 2000–2007, 679 patients with schizophrenia were admitted to University Hospital Birmingham NHS Trust. Co-morbidities were compared with 88,778 age- and gender group-matched hospital controls. Predictors of mortality were identified using forward Cox regression models.ResultsThe prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus was increased in schizophrenia compared to hospitalised controls (11.3% versus 6.3%). The initial prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus was significantly higher in the 100 later deceased schizophrenic patients (24.0%) than in those 579 surviving over 7 years (9.2%). Predictors of mortality in schizophrenia were found to be age (relative risk [RR] = 1.1/year), type 2 diabetes mellitus (RR = 2.2), pneumonia (RR = 2.7), heart failure (RR = 2.9) and chronic renal failure (RR = 3.2). The impact of diabetes mellitus on mortality was significantly higher in schizophrenia than in hospital controls (RR = 2.2 versus RR = 1.1). In agreement, deceased schizophrenics had significantly suffered more diabetes mellitus than deceased controls (24.0 versus 10.5%). The relative risks of mortality for other disorders and their prevalence in later deceased subjects did not significantly differ between schizophrenia and controls.ConclusionSchizophrenics have more and additionally suffer more from diabetes: co-morbidity with diabetes mellitus is increased in schizophrenia in comparison with hospital controls; type 2 diabetes mellitus causes significant excess mortality in schizophrenia. Thus, monitoring for and prevention of type 2 diabetes mellitus is of utmost relevance in hospitalised patients with schizophrenia.

Determinant Factor

AbstractInsulin resistance is a determinant factor for the increased prevalence of hypertension and dyslipidemia in type 2 diabetes patients. In this study we determined those modifications of clinical and biochemical parameters associated with insulin resistance in the diabetic patient, these alterations can offer us indications concerning the pathophysiological mechanisms that lead to the diabetes development in the case of most patients. Also we determined a correlation between insulin resistance and cardiovascular risk, through the combined effect of age and insulin resistance on this risk.

And Gender

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of type 2 diabetes mellitus on epicardial coronary flow velocity assessed by the thrombolysis in myocardial infarction frame count. The thrombolysis in myocardial infarction frame count was measured in 272 coronary arteries from 101 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and in 271 coronary arteries from 104 age- and gender-matched patients without type 2 diabetes mellitus referred for coronary angiography. The thrombolysis in myocardial infarction frame count was measured only in normal arteries or in arteries without significant lesion. By both univariate and multivariate analysis, the thrombolysis in myocardial infarction frame count was not related with either type 2 diabetes mellitus or the duration and glycated hemoglobin levels in the patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The thrombolysis in myocardial infarction frame count was significantly associated with body surface area, heart rate, and proximal coronary artery diameter. Type 2 diabetes mellitus did not affect epicardial coronary flow velocity assessed by the thrombolysis in myocardial infarction frame count.

The Relationship

This study was carried out to provide new data on patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and any suggestions for the prevention of what is a life-threatening disorder. Four hundred and seventy-three type 2 diabetic mellitus patients from Almarj general hospital were used: (222) females and (251) males for the period from October -2017 to April – 2018.The study focused on the relationship between genders and complications of diabetes mellitus. The study showed no significant differences (P > 0.05) between hypertension, heart disease, respiratory dysfunction, nephropathy, urinary tract infection, anemia, hypothyroidism, diabetic ketoacidosis, gastric infection, and gender. On the other hand, a significant (P ≤ 0.05) relationship was found between hepatopathy and foot complications and gender. Findings showed that males with the risk of the dangers of type 2 diabetes mellitus complications were more than females in Almarj city.

Background: Diabetes is major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. It is among the top 10 causes of death in adults. There are number of factors that influence the development of Type 2 DM, the most influential are lifestyle behaviors commonly associated with urbanization. Affordable, quick and easily available validated tools are required for assessment of risk factors for type 2 DM .Using one such questionnaire tool we have conducted a descriptive study in OPD patients of JSS hospital Chamarajanagara to identify and assess the risk of development of Type 2 DM. Objective: The objective of the study is to assess the risk of developing Type 2 diabetes mellitus among OPD patients attending at JSS hospital Chamarajanagara and to find the association between risk of developing Type 2 diabetes mellitus among OPD patients attending at JSS hospital chamarajanagara with their selected personal variables Methodology: Questionnaire on demographic profoma. Finnish diabetes risk score was used to collect data. An explorative descriptive method has been adopted and 90 patients were selected for the study using simple random sampling technique Results: The result of the study revealed that 51.1% of participants have moderate risk, 33.3% of participants have high risk and 15.6% of participants have slightly elevated risk. Conclusion: The participants of this study have moderate risk of getting type 2 DM and Gender, Age, Occupation and BMI are significantly associated in contributing the risk of developing type 2 DM.
