Abstract Diabetes mellitus is one of the major metabolic disorders. Diabetes is recognized for severe complications including diabetic nephropathy, neuropathy and retinopathy. Long-lasting effect of hyperglycemia results in increased oxidative stress. Oxidative stress results from an imbalance between radical-generating and radical scavenging systems. Increased oxidative stress has been shown ...

Background: Diabetes mellitus is an endocrine disorder of carbohydrate metabolism resulting primarily from inadequate insulin release (type I) or insulin insensitivity coupled with inadequate compensatory insulin release (type II). Oxidative stress is one of the complications of diabetes that increases in both types of diabetes and treatment with antioxidants can reduce the complications of dia...

Abstract Background: Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disorder characterized by impaired metabolism of glucose and lipids due to defect in insulin secretion or action. The association obesity with development type 2 diabetes may be partly mediated altered adipokines adipose tissues which contribute obesity. It has been reported that reduction plasma adiponectin level related the elevation resista...

conclusions vitamin d repletion for 12 weeks increased serum vitamin d concentrations and improved β-cell activity in vitamin d-deficient type ii diabetes with no significant changes in hba1c or insulin sensitivity. results median [iqr] 25(oh)d levels increased significantly in the vitamin d group as 58.1 [48, 67.3] nmol/l (p = 0.002). there was no significant difference in the change of hba1c ...

background: correlation between diabetes mellitus (dm) and oral lichen planus (olp) seems probable. since interleukin‑8 (il‑8) is an important inflammatory mediator involved in both conditions, this study aimed to measure and compare the serum level of il‑8 in dm, olp, and dm + olp patients in comparison with healthy individuals. materials and methods: this cross sectional study was conducted o...
