Renal agenesis, oligohydramnios and diabetes mellitus.

Neonatal diabetes mellitus due to pancreatic agenesis.

Neonatal diabetes mellitus, which is defined as hyperglycemia presenting within the first six weeks of life, is a rare disorder. It may result in transient or permanent disease. Pancreatic agenesis is a rare cause of neonatal diabetes.We report a neonate who was small for gestational age and presented with diabetes mellitus and signs of malabsorption because of pancreatic agenesis.

Ensete superbum ameliorates renal dysfunction in experimental diabetes mellitus

Objective(s):Hyperglycemia mediated oxidative stress plays a key role in the pathogenesis of diabetic complications like nephropathy. In the present study, we evaluated the effect of ethanolic extract of Ensete superbum seeds (ESSE) on renal dysfunction and oxidative stress in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. Materials and Methods:Glucose, HbA1c, total protein, albumin, renal function mar...

Renal function in diabetes mellitus

were estimated in 83 children with diabetes mellitus and compared with measures of glycaemic control, age, and duration of disease. Careful attention was paid to definition of normal values in age matched controls. The glomerular filtration rate was greater than normal, and correlated with duration of disease, but not with albumin excretion or blood pressure. Daytime albumin excretion correlate...

[Renal function in diabetes mellitus].

Glomerular filtration rate, day and night-time albumin excretion, and blood pressure were estimated in 83 children with diabetes mellitus and compared with measures of glycaemic control, age, and duration of disease. Careful attention was paid to definition of normal values in age matched controls. The glomerular filtration rate was greater than normal, and correlated with duration of disease, ...
