Migratory Ichthyosiform Dermatosis With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Insulin Resistance

Migratory ichthyosiform dermatosis with type 2 diabetes mellitus and insulin resistance.

BACKGROUND In addition to the well-defined hereditary primary ichthyoses, many sporadic or less well-defined keratinization disorders with or without systemic manifestations have been reported. Herein we describe ichthyosiform dermatosis associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus. OBSERVATIONS The patients were members of a large Arab family with heavy consanguinity. Eighteen members were affec...

Effect of Rhus Coriaria L on Glycemic Control and Insulin Resistance in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Objective: There are association between oxidative stress and incidence of some chronic diseases, such as type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Food containing antioxidant compounds, such as some spices, are the natural ways to deal with oxidative stress. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of sumac powder (Rhus coriaria L) on the glycemic profile in patients with T2DM. Materials ...

Predicting type 2 diabetes mellitus and insulin resistance

Oxidative stress, insulin resistance, dyslipidemia and type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Oxidative stress is increased in metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and this appears to underlie the development of cardiovascular disease, T2DM and diabetic complications. Increased oxidative stress appears to be a deleterious factor leading to insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, β-cell dysfunction, impaired glucose tolerance and ultimately leading to T2DM. Chronic oxidative ...

QTc INTERVAL AND INSULIN RESISTANCE IN TYPE 2 DIABETES MELLITUS

Introduction: Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) are at increased risk of dying from cardiovascular diseases. Elevated cardiovascular risk in this population persists even after other conventional cardiovascular risk factors are eliminated or reduced, suggesting that there are other, incompletely understood, mechanisms which are increasing cardiovascular risk in such patients. Ventricu...
