Clinical profile of urinary tract infections in diabetics and non-diabetics.
BACKGROUND The risk of urinary tract infection (UTI) is higher in diabetics compared to non-diabetics. The aetiology and the antibiotic resistance of uropathogens have been changing over the past years. Hence the study was undertaken to determine if there are differences in clinical and microbiological features of UTI between diabetic and non-diabetic subjects, to study the influence of diabete...
متن کاملUrinary tract infection in diabetics.
Two hundred ambulant diabetic patients (152 females and 48 males) were screened for significant bacteriuria by bacterial colony count method. Significant bacteriuria was found in 13% (24 females and 2 males). E.coli was the predominant organism isolated in 17 out of 28 cases. A higher relative frequency of past history of renal disorders and hypertension was seen in the group with significant b...
متن کاملGenetic polymorphisms in diabetics and non-diabetics.
Phenotype distributions of some genetic polymorphisms are reported in a sample of 721 diabetics and 515 non-diabetic, non-blood donor controls. Reference is also made, in the case of the ABO and Rhesus systems, to previously published results for blood donors resident in the Durham area. Non-insulin-taking diabetics show an increased frequency of blood group A1 (and A1 + A2) when compared with ...
متن کاملAbsorption of glucose from urinary conduits in diabetics and non-diabetics.
The ability of urinary conduits to absorb glucose was investigated. A solution containing 1% glucose and the inert marker phenol red was put into conduits in diabetic and non-diabetic patients. Samples were withdrawn at intervals for analysis and the fall in concentrations plotted against time. The loops in the patients without diabetes did not absorb glucose, but glucose was absorbed in one of...
متن کاملComparative Study of Significance of Lipid Profile, Platelet Count and MPV-Diabetics and Non-Diabetics
Diabetes mellitus is a global pandemic and is a complex disease characterized by chronic hyperglycaemia, metabolic abnormalities and long term macro – vascular and microvascular abnormalities involving major organs. Platelet parameters such as high platelet count and mainly high Mean Platelet Volume (MPV) have been reported in diabetic patients, contributing to the increased risk of vascular di...
