Prevalence of diabetes mellitus and impaired fasting blood glucose in patients with Lichen Planus

 Background: The relationship between Lichen Planus (LP) and diabetes was studied previously, but the re-sults were in conflict. The aim of this study was to find the prevalence of diabetes mellitus (DM) in patients with LP among Iranian patients. Methods: In this study, 80 patients with LP were enrolled. They referred to dermatology clinic of our hospital during one year. A self-designed check...

Inverse correlation between serum adiponectin and 8-iso-prostaglandin F2α in newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes patients.

This study was set out to determine the association of serum adiponectin and oxidative stress in newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes patients. 106 patients with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes were recruited. Simultaneously scanning of the extracranial carotid arteries, common iliac arteries and femoral arteries were performed for measurement of intima media thickness (IMT) in all subjects. Atheros...

8-iso-prostaglandin-F2α: a possible trigger or accelerator of diabetic retinopathy.

[Cardiac risk profile in diabetes mellitus and impaired fasting glucose].

OBJECTIVE Mortality of diabetic patients is higher than that of the population at large, and mainly results from cardiovascular diseases. The purpose of the present study was to identify the prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors in subjects with diabetes mellitus (DM) or abnormal fasting glucose (FG) in order to guide health actions. METHODS A population-based cross-sectional study was ca...
