Association between comorbid diabetes mellitus and mortality of patients with sepsis: A meta-analysis
ConclusionsThis systematic review and meta-analysis of studies suggests that DM does slightly increase sepsis overall mortality, however with statistical heterogeneity. Due to the limitations of the analysis, more well-designed clinical studies are still necessary in future. (Source: International Journal of Diabetes in Developing Countries)

Diagnosis and management of gestational diabetes mellitus guidelines by DIPSI (Revised)
AbstractGestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is diabetes that appears during pregnancy, presenting an opportunity for early testing and care to prevent non-communicable diseases (NCDs). GDM has short-term impacts on both mother and offspring and increases the risk of future diabetes, including type-2 diabetes, due to possible epigenetic changes. Therefore, it is crucial to screen all pregnant women for glucose intolerance with an economical and reliable test recommended by DIPSI and approved by the Ministry of Health& Family Welfare Government of India. Treatment to achieve euglycemia can prevent the epidemic of NCD. Po...

Effect of extracorporeal shockwave therapy on adhesive capsulitis in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: A systematic review
ConclusionFindings from this review suggested that ESWT combined with shoulder exercises and mobilization may be a useful treatment modality in shoulder AC for type 2  DM patients for pain reduction, disability and ROM improvement. There was insufficient data to confirm the findings of ESWT on blood glucose and inflammatory markers in diabetic patients. Therefore, future studies are needed to evaluate its effectiveness on these outcomes.Trial registration number: #CRD4202127949. (Source: International Journal of Diabetes in Developing Countries)

The importance of active B12 (holotranscobalamin) measurement in the diagnosis of vitamin B12 deficiency in type 2 DM patients using metformin
ConclusionsIt is important to closely follow up Type2 DM patients with high daily metformin dose in terms of B12 deficiency. Active B12 is a significant predictor of B12 deficiency compared to other parameters. (Source: International Journal of Diabetes in Developing Countries)

Association of albumin, globulin and albumin/globulin ratio with renal injury in type 2 diabetic nephropathy patients
ConclusionThe course of disease, hypertension and glycemic control may affect the occurrence and development of T2DN. ALB and AGR are of high value in predicting renal injury in patients with T2DN and can serve as the foundation for the clinical diagnosis of the condition.

Diabetes self-care activities among patients with type 2 diabetes: A systematic review and meta-analysis
ConclusionThe overall level of self-care was moderate and far from ideal. Dimensions of foot care, exercise, and blood glucose testing were also below average. Based on this evidence, policies to prevent diabetes should be directed toward educating patients on preventive activities. On the other hand, it is necessary to ensure that patients ’ interpretations are in line with doctors’ recommendations. (Source: International Journal of Diabetes in Developing Countries)

The relationship between neuron-specific enolase, high sensitivity C reactive protein, and diabetic peripheral neuropathy in Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes: A prospective nested case –control analysis
ConclusionElevated serum NSE levels predicted the high incidence of DPN in Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes for an average of 5.1  years, which may be associated with increased neuroinflammatory response caused by high NSE levels, but further studies are needed.

A heterozygous mutation at promoter region of insulin gene (INS) accounts for early-onset diabetes: A case report and review of the literature
AbstractInsulin gene (INS) mutations are associated with a rare form of maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY). Here, we describe a proband with early-onset diabetes resulting from a heterozygous mutation in the promoter region ofINS and summarize the clinical features ofINS mutations caused by MODY (INS-MODY) reported in previous studies. The proband presented with proteinuria, mild hyperglycemia, and hypertension at the age of 39  years old; he was negative for the glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) antibody and had a family history of diabetes, including his father and aunt. The proband underwent whole exome sequen...
