Diagnosis Diabetes can be defined from two different perspectives. A medical’s perspective is defined as a series of metabolic condition linked to hyperglycaemia and caused by defects in insulin secretion, and some complications include the eyes, kidneys and peripheral nerves. A patient’s perspective is defined as a lifelong condition requiring change in your daily diet, monitoring blood levels and visits to the doctor. There are four different categories of diabetes. Type 1 diabetes is an…

Gaurav et al. have demonstrated the efficacy of mefloquine in diabetes and associated cardiovascular complications through measuring various parameters. However, mefloquine doesn’t impart noticeable protection against diabetes and associated cardiovascular complications except glycemic index, TBARS and protein carbonyl content. Moreover, it is well known that oxidative stress was higher in diabetes condition which was observed by decreased levels of antioxidant enzyme levels in the present study…

Aims and Objectives: To detect and compare salivary glucose with plasma glucose level and PPBS(Postprandial ) and FBS (Fasting blood sugar) in diabetic and non-diabetic subjects. Material and Method: A total of 100 patients were participated in the study. They were divided into 2 groups, each group consist of 50 patients. Unstimulated saliva and blood were collected and investigated for glucose levels. Results and conclusion: FBS, PPBS, Plasma glucose levels and salivary glucose levels were…

Blood sugar Why test his blood sugar level? Some diseases, such as diabetes, can cause damage to the pancreas, which affects insulin production negatively. The symptoms are often very weak. Many people may have the disease for a long time without knowing of it, and most have no symptoms at all. With this test, you will quickly find out if you have an elevated blood sugar level, which can be a sign of diabetes. The faster the disease down the faster the right treatment. How is the test…

In this paper, I will be talking about the diagnostic testing, complementary and alternative medicine (CAM), appropriate treatment, typical prognosis, patient teaching and potential barriers. I hope that you can learn from these different topics about type one diabetes mellitus. Diagnostic Testing The diagnostic testing that is done for diabetes mellitus is that they can give urine tests, which they will give you, a paper strip or…

1.1 Background The World Health Organization (WHO) defines Type 1 Diabetes mellitus (T1DM) as insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) (1). A chronic autoimmune disease due to pancreatic dysfunctions leading to a decrease of insulin production. According to AACE Diabetes resource Centre T1DM is described as an autoimmune disorder that exhibits a catabolic function leading to a decrease in the plasma concentration of insulin and a compensatory elevated plasma glucagon and beta cell death that…

Diabetes mellitus is a group of metabolic disorders, which share the common feature of present high levels of blood glucose (source of energy for the body; hyperglycemia) or chronic persistent; if these levels are too high or too low it can lead to acute complications that have to resolve quickly. Elevated levels maintained for a long time and cause blood glucose levels damaging arteries throughout the body, long-term deterioration and alter various organs, especially eyes, kidneys, nerves,…

A year previously the creatinine level of the patient was taken and was safely in the normal range as shown in figure 6. After admission a EP was ordered and the results for creatinine were high for the patient as an individual despite being in the normal range which showed that AKI stage one was occurring which required immediate attention. Then the creatinine then entered in a sharp decline as the patient was on an IV drip and not eating or drinking. Also there was lots of excretion due to…

Addison’s Disease is a disease when adrenal glands don’t produce enough hormones. The adrenal glands also do not produce enough cortisol and aldosterone. Cortisol is a steroid hormone and aldosterone helps regulate blood pressure. There are less than 200,000 cases in the U.S per year, so it is a rare disease. It affects both sexes of all ages, and affects 1 in 100,000 people. Dr. Thomas Addison discovered the disease in 1849, and named it after himself. Addison’s Disease can be life-threatening.…

Microtubules are components of the cytoskeleton of the cell that are made up of tubulin. They are the largest component of the cytoskeleton which is a reason why much of cytoskeleton research centers focus on this specific element. In this paper entitled Microtubules Negatively Regulate Insulin Secretion in Pancreatic β Cells, understanding the role these microtubules play is key in understanding the research findings. Microtubules are made up of protofilaments that are composed of a dimer:…
