Objective: The findings concerning the association of metabolic syndrome (MetS) and depression with glycemic control are controversial. Recently, age at type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) diagnosis has attracted particular attention but the relevant findings are limited. This study aimed to further assess the association between age at T2DM diagnosis, depressive symptoms and MetS with glycemic con...

OBJECTIVE Lipodystrophies are categorized by the extent of fat loss (generalized vs. partial) and by inheritance (congenital vs. acquired). We examined whether a group of patients with partial lipodystrophy of the limbs (PLL), type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and an absence of a family history of lipodystrophy constitute a new clinical subtype. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Ten women with T2DM ...

Estimation of serum C-peptide (SCP) is used as a measure of endogenous insulin secretion in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Urinary CPeptide (UCP) and urinary C-Peptide creatinine ratio (UCPCR) are non invasive, simple and easily reproducible tests which may be considered as an alternative for SCP. In our study we estimated fasting serum C-peptide, urinary C-peptide and UCPCR in Type 2 Diabete...

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by insulin resistance and hyperglycemia which underlie its complications, including cognitive impairment. T2dm-associated impairment generally the decrease in at least one domain. However, progression can be slowed appropriate blood glucose control. Hb1Ac candidate of biomarker predicting T2DM-associated This based on...

Abstract The prevalence of type 2 diabetes (T2DM) is higher in peripheral artery disease (PAD) than coronary (CAD) patients, and PAD overall confers cardiovascular risk CAD. purpose this study was to investigate how the incidence major events compares between CAD patients when analyses are stratified by presence (T2DM). We prospectively recorded death over 10.0±4.7 years 923 with stable CAD, wh...

BACKGROUND Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB) can dramatically ameliorate type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in morbidly obese patients. However, there is little evidence supporting the effectiveness of LRYGB in low body mass index (BMI) patients. The study was designed to evaluate the safety and results of LRYGB for achieving T2DM remission in patients with BMI in the range of 25-35 kg...

OBJECTIVE Research on how adolescents with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) understand and use social support is limited. Therefore, we explored how adolescents with T2DM experience and perceive social support. METHODS Adolescents with T2DM were interviewed, and data were qualitatively analyzed using Consensual Qualitative Research methodology. RESULTS Four themes emerged: support for nondia...

Obesity is the primary risk factor for the development of type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and, as the prevalence of obesity continues to increase, so does the incidence of type 2 diabetes. For most patients with T2DM, the disease will progress beyond the control of lifestyle measures, diet and oral glucose-lowering drugs. In these patients, insulin therapy is ultimately required to lower blood glucose c...

Introduction: Fatty liver is a condition in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of combined training on novel hepatic steatosis indices (fatty liver index (FLI), accumulation product (LAP), hepatic steatosis index (HSI), and Framingham steatosis index (FSI)) in women with type 2 diabetes. Methods: 35 female with type 2 diabetes wer...

Objective: Diabetes is a major health concern worldwide. Diabetic patients experience many issues that affect their lives. Poor self-care and compliance in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients cause chronic hyperglycemia and irreversible complications. The study aimed to explore the lived experiences of T2DM patients with irreversible complications. Materials and Methods: The qualitative p...
