Abstract:

Objectives: To observe Quality of Life (QoL) in diabetes mellitus patientsafter fabrication of immediate dentures. Setting: Department of Prosthodontics in HamdardUniversity Dental Hospital, Karachi. Period: Two years from October 2011 to September 2013.Methodology: Thirty patients with established diagnoses of diabetes mellitus reported. In thisstudy by purposive non-probability sampling technique. In this study patients were selected,male and female patients were 24 and 6 respectively with the age range of 22- 74 years. Aftergetting consent Questions mention in OHIP-14 were asked from the patients on 1st visit and2 months later after fabrication of immediate denture to assess the QoL of in these patients.Data was obtained after using SPSS-version 19. For analysis Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Testwas applied to get results. Probability level of P< 0.05 was considered statistically significant.Results: There was marked improvement in different domains of QoL in diabetes mellituspatients after fabrication of immediate dentures, most of the patients were pleased with theirprosthesis. Three patients had complained of pain on buccal side which was corrected bytrimming the overextended flange of their denture. All patients had improvement in phonetics(P value 0.01), better choice of food (P value 0.00), eating ability (P value 0.01), decreaseembarrassment (P value 0.08) and self-assurance (P value 0.025). However, effect of immediatedenture on variable like tension was not advantageous having P-value of 0.157. Conclusion: Byfabrication of immediate dentures to diabetes mellitus patients, QoL can be markedly improvedin such patients.

Abstract:

Objectives: Diabetes Mellitus being a major issue faced by developingcountries like Pakistan. Non-adherence is a major issue in achieving a desired therapeuticgoal. This study aims at determining relation with the drug non-adherence associated with thetreatment regime, treatment satisfaction and educational status of the person. Study Design:This was a cross sectional study. Place and Duration: This study was done at the Diabetesclinic, Nishtar hospital, Multan. Total 242 diabetic patients were studied over a period of 10months. Methodology: The inclusion criteria was set as patients who have been diagnosedwith Diabetes Type II and had been on oral hypoglycemic medications for about last 5 monthsor more. Those patients who were diagnosed with Type I diabetes and Type II diabetesless than 5 months were not included in the study. Also those patients who were on Insulintherapy were also excluded. Socio-demographic data was obtained along with therapy typeand educational status. Drug adherence level was studied with the 8-item Morisky (MMAS-8). Treatment satisfaction was studied with the help of treatment satisfaction questionnaire formedication. The data was analyzed on the SPSS version 23 with significant p-value <0.05.Results: Among 242 patients 152(62.81%) were females and 90(37.19%) were males. Meanage of the patients were 47.68±15.13 years. Patients on combination therapy were (n=134,55.3%) and on monotherapy were (n=108, 44.6%). Mean adherence score was 5.4±1.1.Themean for four domains of Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication(TSQM) were:effectiveness= 66.93±15.27, side effects=32.09±26.91, convenience =62.59±14.49 andsatisfaction= 65.49±16.13.Non-adherence was found to be associated with age, illiteracy,side-effects, satisfaction and convenience (p<0.05). Conclusion: Non-adherence must beovercome in patients to achieve appropriate glucose levels. Significant factors affecting theadherence levels were Illiteracy, Side effects, convenience and satisfaction of the patient. Publicawareness campaigns and regular clinic visits should be encouraged. Drugs having lower sideeffects,higher satisfaction levels and combined generics for once daily dosing having greaterconvenience should be used.

Abstract:

Background: Diabetes mellitus is associated with significant morbidity andmortality worldwide and Pakistan is no exception. Objectives: To determine the morbidity andmortality in patients admitted with Diabetes Mellitus in a teaching hospital of Pakistan, throughretrospective analysis of admission and patient file records. Study Design: Retrospectivelyanalyzed. Setting: Independent University Hospital, a Teaching Hospital, Faisalabad. Period:1st January 2016 to 31st December 2017. Patients and Methods: Data included age, gender,total numbers of admissions and those due to Diabetes Mellitus, the indications for admissions,presenting symptoms and method of diagnoses in diabetic patients, mortality rates and causesof death. Data obtained were analyzed using chi square. Results: Out of 10490 medicaladmissions, 5706 (54.4%) were males and 4784 (45.6%) females. Diabetes was detected in 1450(13.8%) patients [810 (55.9%) males, 640 (44.13%) females]. The mean age of diabetic patientswas 53.6+16.1 years (range 18 – 94 years). Poor glycemic control (29%) and diabetic footsyndrome (23.4%) were the most common reasons for admission in diabetic cases. The overallmortality rate among medical admissions was 21.8%, with diabetes accounting for 6.7% deaths.Within the cohort of diabetic cases, mortality was 15.9%, with significantly higher mortalityin those aged > 65 years (p < 0.05). The most common causes of death in diabetic caseswere cerebrovascular disease and complications associated with the diabetic foot syndrome,accounting for 26.1% and 21.7% of deaths respectively; the least common causes of death indiabetic patients were pulmonary tuberculosis, meningitis, malaria and hepatic encephalopathyaccounting for 4.4% of deaths. Conclusions: Cerebrovascular disease was the most frequentcause of mortality among admitted diabetic patients with diabetic foot syndrome (a preventablecomplication) as the second most frequent cause of mortality. Increased screening for diabetesmellitus morbidities in the clinic and community settings and adequate health education isrequired to reduce morbidity and mortality associated with diabetes mellitus.

Abstract:

Introduction: Diabetes Mellitus is a syndrome with disordered metabolismand inappropriate hyperglycemia due to either deficiency of insulin secretion or combinationof insulin resistance and inadequate insulin. Infections constitute the main bulk of cutaneousmanifestations of diabetes mellitus with incidence ranging between 20–50%. Bacteria andfungi can cause infective complications involving skin and nails of the diabetic patients. Themajor share of infections in Diabetes Mellitus is contributed by bacteria. The most commoncausative organisms are Staphylococcus aurous and beta-hemolytic Streptococci. Objective:to determine the frequency of cutaneousbacterial Infections in patients with type II DiabetesMellitis, attending outpatient clinic in a tertiary care hospital. Study Design: Cross sectionalstudy. Setting: Department of Dermatology and Medicine, Dr. Ziauddin University Hospital,KDLB Campus, Karachi. Period: 1st January 2017 till 31st March 2017 over a period of threemonths. Material and methods: Adult patients already diagnosed to be suffering from type 2Diabetes Mellitis presenting with cutaneous manifestations were included in the study. Patientsfulfilling the selection criteria were enrolled after an informed consent. Relevant laboratoryinvestigations were advised where required. Current study targeted bacterial infections onlyand Chi-square test was used to determine P value. Data obtained was compiled, tabulatedand analyzed by SPSS. Result: Total of 302 cases of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitis having somecutaneous manifestations were enrolled. There were 124 (41%) males and 178 (59%) females.Mean age of presentation was 50 ± 11 years, the age range being 30-80 years. The meanduration of diabetes was 8.5 ± 7 years (range being 1-30 years). Unsatisfactory glycemic controlwas present in 205 (68%) patients. Among the enrolled subjects bacterial infections were themost frequently seen skin disease accounting for 79 patients (26%). Among the patients withthese bacterial infections uncontrolled Diabetes was a feature in 61 (77%). The breakup ofbacterial infections (59) in the descending order of frequency stood as follows: cellulitis 22(28%), carbuncle 17 (21%), furuncle 14 (18%), ecthyma 13 (16%), folliculitis 09 (12%), andimpetigo 04 (5%).

Abstract:

Diabetes mellitus is a modifiable risk factor for generalized atherosclerosis.Measurement of carotid intima media thickness by Doppler ultrasonography can be used tomeasure the extent of atherosclerosis. Objectives: To determine the association of carotidatherosclerosis in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and its relationship with glycemiccontrol. Study Design: Cross-sectional comparative study. Period: 12 months June 2015 toMay 2016. Setting: Creek General Hospital in the Department of Medicine and Radiology,Karachi, Pakistan. Method: The subjects were selected from diabetic patients presenting tothe Out-Patient Department and controls from their attendants. All subjects had a detailedhistory, physical examination and laboratory investigations recorded. The variables includedage, gender, weight, BMI, blood pressures, fasting and post prandial blood sugars, HbA1cand lipid profile. All individuals underwent B-mode ultrasound for carotid Doppler studies. Asingle operator conducted all the Doppler studies. The carotid intima media thickness wasmeasured and the presence of carotid plaque was recorded for each subject. The data wasentered on SPSS ver 20.0. Numbers and percentages were calculated for categorical datawhile mean±standard deviation was calculated for continuous data. The carotid intima mediathickness and its association with diabetes were analyzed by Student’s t test. P-value of <0.05was considered significant. Among the diabetic patients the relationship of glycemic controland carotid intima media thickness was analyzed through student’s t-test. P-value of <0.05was considered significant. The association of presence of carotid plaque for diabetic and nondiabeticsubjects was assessed by Chi-square test. P-value of <0.05 was taken as significant.Association of carotid plaque among diabetic patients with satisfactory and unsatisfactoryglycemic control was also assessed through the Chi-square test and p-value of<0.05 wasconsidered significant. Result: Out of the total study population of 237 subjects, which consistedof 119 diabetic and 118 normal controls, there were 105 male and 132 female patients. Themean fasting blood sugar was 113.3±55.2 mg/dl, mean random blood sugar was 185.9±102.0mg/dl, mean HbA1c was 6.98±2.5 %. Mean ±SD of carotid intima media thickness was0.91±0.17 mm. Results revealed that diabetes has significant association with the thicknessof carotid intima media (p-value<0.000). A total of 28 individuals (11.8%) had a carotid intimamedia thickness that was classified as a localized carotid artery plaque. The presence of carotidplaque also showed a significant association with the presence of diabetes. The degree ofglycemic control showed no relationship with carotid intima media thickness. The presenceof carotid plaque also showed no association with degree of glycemic control. Conclusion:CIMT measured by Doppler ultrasonography was found to be significantly associated with thepresence of diabetes mellitus. There was no relationship of glycemic control with CIMT amongthe diabetic patients.

Abstract:

Introduction: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a major cause of chronic liver disease, cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC). HCV infection and type 2 diabetes are two common disorders with a high impact on health worldwide. There is growing evidenceto support the concept that HCV infection is a risk factor for developing type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Both insulin resistance and diabetes canadversely affect the course of chronic hepatitis C, and lead to poor response to antiviral therapy and increased incidence of Hepatocellularcarcinoma. Objective: The objective of the study was to assess the frequency of type 2 Diabetes mellitus in newly diagnosed chronichepatitis C patients presenting in Allied hospital Medical unit II during six month period. Design: Cross sectional study. Setting: Medicalunit-II, Allied Hospital, Faisalabad. Period: 01-08-2009 to 28-02-2010. Material and methods: All newly diagnosed patients of chronichepatitis C on the basis of PCR for HCV-RNA were included in the study. Fasting and two hours postprandial blood sample were tested.Diabetes Mellitus was labeled as per slandered. Results: Out of 180 patients with CHC 19 (10.6%) were found to have Diabetes mellituswhile 161(89.4%) were non-diabetics. Conclusions: There is close association in the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus in patientswith chronic hepatitis C.

Abstract:

Background: Type I diabetes mellitus is a chronic illness in which autoimmune destruction of pancreatic beta cells results in the body’s inability to produce insulin. Vitamin D has several important roles regarding bone health however, recent studies suggest that Vitamin D3 (the active form of Vitamin D) has potent antiproliferative and immunomodulatory properties which has linked it to many autoimmune disease including Type I Diabetes Melltius. Vitamin D deficiency (serum levels less than 50 nmol/l) has a negative influence on insulin secretion in patients with Type I Diabetes Mellitus, thereby suggesting a role for vitamin D3 in the pathogenesis of Type I Diabetes Mellitus. Vitamin D deficiency is an increasingly recognized comorbidity in patients with Type I diabetes mellitus. We aim to determine the frequency of vitamin D deficiency in Type I Diabetes Mellitus in Pakistani population. Objectives: The objective of the study was to determine frequency of Vitamin D deficiency in patients havingType I Diabetes Mellitus in Pakistani Population. Study Design: Cross-sectional study. Setting: The study was conducted in Diabetes Management Center & Endocrinology Unit (DMC & EU) at Services Hospital Lahore. Period: From 20th May to 19th November (6 months). Materials and Methods: 200 patients having Type I Diabetes Mellitus presenting to Diabetic Management Center were recruited by non-probability purposive sampling. Informed consent was taken. Pro forma was filled by a skilled interviewer and blood sample for vitamin D levels was drawn. Data was entered in the pro forma given at the end and was analyzed in SPSS. Results: Of the 200 subjects 125 were males and 75 were females. Of the males 85.6% and females 88% were vitamin D deficient. The frequency of vitamin D deficiency in newly diagnosed Type I Diabetics is 86.5%. In this study it was seen that higher HbA1c levels are significantly associated with Vitamin D deficiency. Conclusions: These results conclude that vitamin D deficiency is significantly frequent at the onset of Type I Diabetes Mellitus . So vitamin D levels should be measured in all Type I diabetics on their first presentation to the hospital especially those with higher HbA1c levels and vitamin D should be replaced in deficient patients. Further prospectivestudies should be done to evaluate Vitamin D3 as a factor in managing glycemic control.

Abstract:

Introduction: Gestational diabetes mellitus is common disorder in pregnancy. It is associated with adverse pregnancy outcome. There is no consensus regarding the optimal approach to screening of gestational diabetes mellitus. The present study has tried toobserve the value of fasting blood glucose in screening of gestational diabetes. Objective: To determine the frequency of patients in whomfasting blood glucose and 100gm glucose tolerance show agreement for screening of gestational diabetes mellitus at 24 -28 wks. Studydesign: Comparative cross sectional study. Settings: The study was conducted at Gynecology and Obstetrics department Shaikh ZayedFederal Post Graduate Institute Lahore. Duration of study with dates: 6 months from 12Nov 2010 to 11 May 2011. Material and method: Thestudy included 135 booked patients with positive family history of diabetes mellitus. All patients underwent fasting blood glucose at 24-28 weeksof gestation, regardless of results of fasting blood glucose on next visit they underwent 100g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). The agreementbetween fasting blood glucose and 100g oral glucose tolerance test was calculated in frequency and percentages. Results: The mean age ofwomen in studied population was 27.15±3.70.Out of 135 patients 86.7 %( 117) showed agreement between results of fasting blood glucose and100g OGTT while 13.31 %( 18) showed no agreement between both of the tests. Conclusions: Fasting blood glucose is a good screeningoption for gestational diabetes mellitus along with positive history. It provides a simple, cheap and more practical test for screening of gestationaldiabetes mellitus. However diagnostic confirmation with 100g OGTT should be done.
