Type 1 diabetes mellitus is by far the most common metabolic and endocrinal disease in children (Peters & Schriger, 1997). The major dietary component responsible for fluctuations in blood glucose levels is carbohydrate. The amount, source (Jenkins et al., 1981; Gannon et al., 1989) and type (Brand et al., 1985) of carbohydrate appear to have profound influence on postprandial glucose levels. T...

The influence of obesity on plasma fructosamine concentration was studied in 68 diabetic and 1335 nondiabetic subjects from a Chinese community. Obese nondiabetic men (body mass index > 25 kg/m2) had lower fructosamine concentrations than nonobese nondiabetic men (body mass index < or = 25 kg/m2); the pattern was similar for diabetic women. Stepwise multiple-regression analysis showed that, apa...

Abstract Background This study aimed to explore predictive factors of time below target glucose range (TBR) ≥ 1% among patients’ characteristics and glycemic variability (GV) indices using continuous monitoring data in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes. Methods We conducted a prospective observational on 179 (71 female) Japanese outpatients diabetes aged 65 years. The the participants TBR w...

OBJECTIVE Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) improves glycemic control, but data are inconclusive about its influence on quality of life (QOL). We investigated the impact of 24 weeks of CGM use on QOL in adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D) who use multiple daily insulin injections. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS DIAMOND (Multiple Daily Injections and Continuous Glucose Monitoring in Diabetes) was...

Background. Previous studies demonstrated that type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients have low serum magnesium and high levels of visfatin. This study aimed to show the relationship between insulin, visfatin, in T2D characterized by a non-insulin resistance status. Methods. was cross-sectional conducted Hawler Medical University, Kurdistan Region, Iraq from April 2019 March 2020. A total number 130 45 ...

Background: Diabetes mellitus, a group of metabolic disorder with multiple etiologies is characterized by chronic hyperglycaemia, induced deficiency insulin production and action. Prediabetes type hyperglycemia in which glycemic indices are higher than normal but lower the diabetes threshold. Objective: This study aims to assess impact bone markers (serum calcium, phosphorus alkaline phosphatas...

Serial assessments of neurocognitive functioning in athletes with concussion are commonly used for return to play decisions. This study provides reliable change indices (RCIs) for computerized tests from 40 NCAA Division I collegiate athletes that suffered a sports-related concussion. The normative data that resulted from the RCIs and subsequent analyses of differences between improved and not ...
