The present analysis was based on data collected from 785 adults investigated from families of 2% randomly selected students of American International University-Bangladesh. The students themselves collected the information from their adult family members through a pre-designed and pre-tested questionnaire. Among the investigated unit’s 49.4 percent were suffering from at least one of the non-communicable diseases. Majority (85.3%) of the NCDs affected adults were diabetic patients. The NCDs affected people were classified by their socioeconomic characters and type of disease and association between type of disease and level of some of socioeconomic characters was observed by chi-square test. Type of disease was significantly associated with residential status, age, height, occupation, income, marital status and physical l.....

Objectives: Assess the effect on lower limb major amputation rate following the introduction of the multi-disciplinary foot clinic in a defined relatively static population in the North West of England.
Methods: Data surrounding all lower limb amputations in diabetic patients between 1997 and 2010 were retrospectively collected and analysed.
Results: Results demonstrated significant increase in minor amputations but numerical reduction in major amputations. There was significant change in ratio of minor to major amputation. When annual fluctuation was averaged out over 5-year period, the annual major amputation per 100,000 patients reduced from 6.6 to 5.1 with increase in minor amputations from 2.0 to 5.9.
Discussion: A reductions in major amputations rate with increase in minor amputations .....

Obesity is a universal pathological condition that affected human health seriously. It would be better to say that, treatment methods of obesity have not been effective to date [1]. This problem evoke researchers into a great challenge to overcome it [2]. Broadly speaking, the reactive oxygen species (ROS) play an important role in lipid accumulation [3]. Oxidative stress is an indispensable phenomenon for the adipocyte accumulation [4-6]. Diabetes mellitus (DM) is an endocrine-metabolic disorder that is increasing worldwide due to population aging, urbanization and obesity. Above all, it causes accelerate mortality rate. Increased oxidative stress plays an important role in the development and progression of diabetes and its complications......

Pressure ulcers, also known as bedsores, are a prevalent and debilitating condition affecting up to 23% of patients in nursing homes or acute hospital settings [1-3]. Inadequate healing of pressure ulcers increases a patient’s susceptibility to life-threatening infections and prolonged hospital stays, leading to increased healthcare expenditure. Therefore, interventions to prevent ulcers or accelerate ulcer healing are essential to improve patient outcomes and reduce the burden of pressure ulcers on healthcare systems......

Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is a multi-etiological microvascular complication. Prolong hyperglycemia leads to formation of advance glycation end product (AGE) and oxidative stress which are contributors of nerve dysfunction. DPN manifests as pain, slowing of nerve conduction velocity (NCV), sensory loss etc. The aim of the present study is to evaluate the individual and combined protective effect of benfotiamine (BT) and thyroxine (T4) against Streptozotocin (STZ) induced DPN in rats. After 48 hours of a single injection of STZ (60 mg/kg bw i.p) diabetic rats were administered BT (100 mg/kg p.o.), T4 (1mg/kg.s.c,) and their combination. Diabetic rats at 5th week, exhibited significant decrease in body weight, hyperalgesia, decreased muscle coordination, grip strength and NCV. Antioxidant activity of reduced glutathione (GSH), cat.....

The social aspects of medical research and research in life science deal with data collected from randomly selected investigating units either by direct interview or by doing some controlled experiments. The objective of investigation is to verify the existence of some pre-assumed hypothesis and belief. Whatever be the objective of the research, the study is done using the collected data, where the data are either categorical or numerical or both. There are many advanced statistical methods [1] to handle the data, especially if the data are numerical. Limited number of methods of analysis is there to handle the categorical data. But proper statistical methods are to be applied to study the unknown the characteristics in the population. O.....

In general, patients with diabetes still have an increased mortality risk, increased risk of micro- and macro-vascular complications and a decreased quality of life. Despite better options for treatment and care, to many diabetes patients are still not in optimized treatment control in order to avoid complications. In Denmark there is a long tradition for focused diabetes treatment and care, as well as research and manufacturing insulin and other antihyperglycemic drugs. Five Steno Diabetes Centers, one in each region of Denmark, have emerged as a part of the Danish Health Care System. The overall aim for these centers is to provide optimized treatment and care for all patients with diabetes regardless of age, type of diabetes, co-morbidity and where in the Health Care System the patient is treated.....

And till now after many improvements of toilets we must live in odor of poop in our toilets. we use perfume detergent cake and any kind of chemicals to remove odor, but odor mixed with perfume or chemical and disturb our nose to brain and our mood become distress. and when our brain gets disturb then our metabolic process is also disturbing. Poop odor spread soon after and its cover near about 5 to 8 feet diameters within 30 second and by smell flies and other insects attack the night soil. because it is good food for them.

Patients with type-2 diabetes have more than half the day in the post meal state. Elevation in post meal plasma glucose is due to loss of first phase insulin secretion, decreased insulin sensitivity in peripheral tissues and consequent decreased suppression of hepatic glucose output after meals due to insulin deficiency. Elevated or exaggerated post meal response is directly responsible for endothelial dysfunction and pro-atherogenic states. Post-meal hyperglycemia is a prominent early defect in type-2 diabetes patients......

Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic disorder characterized by hyperglycemia due to insulin deficiency or insulin resistance. There is no permanent cure for Diabetes. Only way is to replace insulin producing beta-cells. Whole pancreatic transplantation and purified pancreatic islets transplantation are the answer to cure for diabetes. But scarcity of suitable donor and morbidity, high cost involved are limiting factors for pancreatic transplantation. Islet cell transplantation is less invasive procedure and safer than total pancreatic transplantation established in year 2000. Isolated islets carry less antigenic property.....

Just the other day, I wrote an Editorial for another journal on World Diabetes Day. Before that, it was the World Thrombosis Day. Think of just metabolic diseases, you have, - World Hypertension Day (May 17), World Obesity Day (Oct 11), World Heart Day (Sept 29), World Thrombosis Day (Oct 13), World Diabetes Day (Nov 14). The list keeps growing every year. Whenever I am asked to participate, in these World Observation Days or asked to write about these important annual days, I ask myself, what have we done to arrest, reduce or prevent these chronic metabolic diseases? What can be done about the raising epidemics of chronic diseases? These are hard questions to ask? Much harder, to answer.
All that we can do is, just like we do for New Year’s Day, take a pledge to do something that will make a difference. Metabolic diseases, such as h.....
