RESUMO

Objective Evaluation of glucometrics in the first week of ICU stay and its association with outcomes. Design Prospective observational study. Setting Mixed ICU of teaching hospital. Patients Adults initiated on insulin infusion for 2 consecutive blood glucose (BG) readings ≥180mg/dL. Main variables of interest Glucometrics calculated from the BG of first week of admission: hyperglycemia (BG>180mg/dL) and hypoglycemia (BG<70mg/dL) episodes; median, standard deviation (SD) and coefficient of variation (CV) of BG, glycemic lability index (GLI), time in target BG range (TIR). Factors influencing glucometrics and the association of glucometrics to patient outcomes analyzed. Results A total of 5762 BG measurements in 100 patients of median age 55 years included. Glucometrics: hyperglycemia: 2253 (39%), hypoglycemia: 28 (0.48%), median BG: 169mg/dL (162–178.75), SD 31mg/dL (26–38.75), CV 18.6% (17.1–22.5), GLI: 718.5 [(mg/dL)2/h]/week (540.5–1131.5) and TIR 57% (50–67). Diabetes and higher APACHE II score were associated with higher SD and CV, and lower TIR. On multivariate regression, diabetes (p=0.009) and APACHE II score (p=0.016) were independently associated with higher SD. Higher SD and CV were associated with less vasopressor-free days; lower TIR with more blood-stream infections (BSI). Patients with higher SD, CV and GLI had a higher 28-day mortality. On multivariate analysis, GLI alone was associated with a higher mortality (OR 2.99, p=0.04). Conclusions Glycemic lability in the first week in ICU patients receiving insulin infusion is associated with higher mortality. Lower TIR is associated with more blood stream infections (AU)


Objetivo Evaluación de la glucometría en la primera semana de estancia en la UCI y su asociación con los resultados. Diseño Estudio observacional prospectivo. Ámbito UCI mixta de hospital docente. Pacientes Adultos que iniciaron una infusión de insulina para dos lecturas consecutivas de glucosa en sangre (GS) ≥180mg/dl. Principales variables de interés Glucometría calculada a partir de la GS de la primera semana de ingreso: episodios de hiperglucemia (GS >180mg/dl) e hipoglucemia (GS <70mg/dl); mediana, desviación estándar (DE) y coeficiente de variación (CV) de GS, índice de labilidad glucémica (ILG), tiempo en el rango objetivo de GS (TIR). Resultados Se incluyeron un total de 5.762 GS en 100 pacientes con una mediana de edad de 55años. Glucometría: hiperglucemia: 2.253 (39%), hipoglucemia: 28 (0,48%), mediana GS: 169mg/dl, DE 31mg/dl, CV 18,6%, ILG: 718,5 [(mg/dl)2/h]/semana, TIR 57%. La diabetes y una puntuación APACHEII más alta se asociaron con una DE y un CV más altos y una TIR más baja. En la regresión multivariada, la diabetes (p=0,009) y la puntuación APACHEII (p=0,016) se asociaron de forma independiente con una DE más alta. La DE y el CV más altos se asociaron con menos días sin vasopresores; menor TIR, con más infecciones del torrente sanguíneo (ITS). En el análisis multivariado, el ILG solo se asoció con una mayor mortalidad (OR: 2,99, p=0,04). Conclusiones La labilidad glucémica en la primera semana en pacientes de UCI que reciben infusión de insulina se asocia con mayor mortalidad. Una TIR más baja se asocia con más ITS (AU)

RESUMO

RESUMEN Objetivo: Determinar el efecto del consumo de 3 tipos de leche de vaca (sin lactosa, alta en proteínas y estándar) sobre carga glicémica (CG), respuesta glicémica (RG) e índice glicémico (IG) y el nivel de saciedad en adultos sanos. Metodología: En 11 sujetos sanos se aplicó la metodología propuesta por la norma ISO 26642 para determinar índice glicémico. Se obtuvo muestra de sangre capilar a los 0, 30, 45, 60, 90 y 120 minutos. Se evaluó el nivel de hambre, saciedad y plenitud mediante escala visual análoga (EVA). El análisis estadístico se hizo mediante Test de Friedman, Wilcoxon, ajustado por Bonferroni o ANOVA de medidas repetidas. Significancia estadística con valor p0,05). Conclusión: Si bien la leche sin lactosa presentó un alto índice glicémico, ésta no afectó el nivel de saciedad. Por otro lado, la leche alta en proteínas y estándar tienen un bajo índice glicémico.


ABSTRACT Objective: To determine the effect of consumption of 3 types of cow's milk (lactose free, high in protein, and standard) on glycemic load (GL), glycemic response (GR) and glycemic index (GI) and the level of satiety in healthy adults. Methodology: Eleven healthy subjects participated. The methodology proposed by the ISO 26642 standard was applied to determine GI. Capillary blood sample was obtained at 0, 30, 45, 60, 90 and 120 minutes. The level of hunger, satiety and fullness were evaluated using a visual analog scale (VAS). Statistical analysis was done using the Friedman, Wilcoxon test, adjusted by Bonferroni or repeated measures ANOVA. Statistical significance was set as p0.05). Conclusion: Although lactose-free milk had a high GI, it did not affect satiety. On the other hand, high protein and standard milk have a low GI.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The role of probiotics supplementation in gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) remains controversial. We conducted this meta-analysis to investigate the effects of probiotics on fasting blood glucose (FBG), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), total glutathione (GSH), malonaldehyde (MDA) and nitric oxide (NO) levels in pregnant women with GDM. METHODS: We systematically searched the Cochrane Library, Embase and PubMed electronic databases up to November 2018. A meta-analysis was then conducted using weighted mean difference (WMD) and 95% confidence interval (CI) as effect measures. RESULTS: A total of 7 studies were enrolled in the final meta-analysis. Data showed that probiotics reduced FBG (WMD: -3.19mg/dl, 95% CI: -5.55 to -0.82, P=0.008) in pregnant women with GDM. Sub-group analysis suggested that the effect of probiotics on lowering FBG was more significant in patients with a baseline FBG ≥92mg/dl (WMD: -3.62mg/dl, 95% CI: -6.64 to -0.60, P=0.019), a duration of probiotic treatment ≤6 weeks (WMD: -3.24mg/dl, 95% CI: -4.96 to -1.53, P=0.000) and a dose<6×109 colony-forming unit (CFU) (WMD: -3.37mg/dl, 95% CI: -6.64 to -0.10, P=0.043). In addition, probiotics were effective in reducing hs-CRP and MDA in pregnant women with GDM, but had no significant effect on either GSH or NO. CONCLUSION: This meta-analysis suggests that probiotics supplementation might have a small effect on the reduction of FBG in pregnant women with GDM, and might have certain effects on some biomarkers of inflammation and oxidative stress. However, given the heterogeneity between studies, the results should be interpreted with caution but are worthy of further investigation.

RESUMO

ß-glucans are glucose polymers (polysaccharides) of high molecular weight naturally present in the cell wall of various living organisms such as bacteria, yeasts, fungus and plants (mainly cereals like barley and oat). ß-glucans are GRAS and are currently used as texturing agents by the food industry. Furthermore, scientific evidence suggest that, depending on their physicochemical structure and source, their intake would be associated with health promoting effect such as the decrease of plasma cholesterol and the improvement of the glycemic index of the ß-glucan-containing foodstuffs. Accordingly, a health claim related with the intake of cereal ß-glucans and plasma cholesterol improvement has been accepted by the FDA in U.S.A. and by the EFSA in the E.U. For this reason, ß-glucans are increasingly used in the world for the development of functional foods. However, the effect of yeast ß-glucans on immune system stimulation is still discussed.


Los ß-glucanos son polímeros de glucosa (polisacáridos) de elevado peso molecular que se encuentran en forma natural en la pared celular de diversos organismos vivos como bacterias, levaduras, hongos y plantas (cereales como avena y cebada). Los ß-glucanos son inocuos y actualmente son utilizados por las empresas de alimentos como agentes texturizantes. Además, antecedentes científicos sugieren que, dependiendo de su estructura fisicoquímica y de su origen, su consumo se asociaría a efectos beneficiosos para la salud del ser humano como la disminución de la concentración plasmática de colesterol total y la reducción del índice glicémico de los alimentos que lo incluyen. Un mensaje de salud sobre consumo de ß-glucanos de cereales y disminución del colesterol ha sido aceptado tanto por la FDA de EE.UU. como por la EFSA de la U.E. Por esta razón los ß-glucanos están siendo utilizados cada vez más para el desarrollo de alimentos funcionales en varios países del mundo. Sin embargo, el efecto de los ß-glucanos de levadura sobre la estimulación de la respuesta inmune aún está en discusión.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the diagnostic accuracy of random blood glucose (RBG) on good glycaemic control among patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) in a rural African setting. METHODS: Cross-sectional study at St. Francis' Hospital in eastern Zambia. RBG and HbA1c were measured during one clinical review only. Other information obtained was age, sex, body mass index, waist circumference, blood pressure, urine albumin-creatinine ratio, duration since diagnosis and medication. RESULTS: One hundred and one patients with DM (type 1 DM = 23, type 2 DM = 78) were included. Spearman's rank correlation coefficient revealed a significant correlation between RBG and HbA1c among the patients with type 2 DM (r = 0.73, P < 0.001) but not patients with type 1 DM (r = 0.17, P = 0.44). Furthermore, in a multivariate linear regression model (R(2) = 0.71) RBG (per mmol/l increment) (B = 0.28, 95% CI:0.24-0.32, P < 0.001) was significantly associated with HbA1c among the patients with type 2 DM. Based on ROC analysis (AUC = 0.80, SE = 0.05), RBG ≤7.5 mmol/l was determined as the optimal cut-off value for good glycaemic control (HbA1c <7.0% [53 mmol/mol]) among patients with type 2 DM (sensitivity = 76.7%; specificity = 70.8%; positive predictive value = 62.2%; negative predictive value = 82.9%). CONCLUSIONS: Random blood glucose could possibly be used to assess glycaemic control among patients with type 2 DM in rural settings of sub-Saharan Africa.

RESUMO

The use of anthropometric indexes, to follow up cardiovascular and metabolic risk factors, has been the focus of several studies during the last years. The Lipid Accumulation Product (LAP) innovates in combining waist circumference (WC), an anthropometric parameter, with fasting triglycerides, a biochemical parameter: the. The LAP was proposed in 2005 by Kahn as a better index than the Body Mass Index (BMI) to predict cardiovascular risk. The few studies published do not present LAP in young female population. For this reason, our study analyzed the association between LAP and fasting glycemia in female university students. A significant positive correlation was found, confirming previous studies with different populations.


La utilización de índices antropométricos para rastrear factores de riesgo cardiovascular y metabólico, ha sido de interés en varios estudios durante los últimos años. El Producto de Acumulación Lipídica (PAL) innova al combinar la circunferencia de cintura (CC), el cual es un parámetro antropométrico, con un parámetro bioquímico: los triglicéridos en ayunas. Kahn propuso el PAL el año 2005 como un índice mejor que el Indice de Masa Corporal (IMC) para predecir riesgo cardiovascular. Algunos estudios publicados no muestran el PAL en una población de mujeres jóvenes. Por esta razón, el objetivo del presente estudio fue analizar la asociación entre PAL y la glucemia en ayunas en estudiantes universitarias. Se detectó una correlación significativamente positiva, confirmando estudios previos en diferentes poblaciones.

RESUMO

Diabetes leads to reproductive dysfunctions by producing free radicals. It seems that using walnut can be effective in the damage induced by diabetes. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of walnut consumption on sex hormones in diabetic Wistar male rats induced by STZ (streptozotocin). Diabetes animals were induced by STZ (60 mg/kg). Rats were randomly divided into 5 groups (n=6), including normal diet and healthy (Sham), Diabetic by normal diet (control) and diabetic by 6, 9 and 12% walnut in their diet (experimental groups), and were examined for 6 weeks. Body weight, blood glucose (3 times), and sex hormones (testosterone, FSH and LH) were measured. Overall, in terms of the mean index, there was a significant difference in the percentage of weight changes between the groups (p<0.001). Blood glucose (3 times) significantly increased in experimental and control groups in comparison with sham group (p<0.001). FSH concentration significantly decreased in control group (p<0.05) and testosterone hormone decreased in experimental and control groups compared to sham group (p<0.05). Oral administration of walnut seems to prevent severe weight loss in the experimental models of diabetic rats and exerts appropriate and useful changes in blood glucose level as well as positive effects on the secretion of sex hormones.


La diabetes conduce a disfunciones reproductivas mediante la producción de radicales libres. Parece que el uso del nogal puede ser eficaz para contrarestar el daño inducido por la diabetes. El objetivo fue evaluar los efectos del consumo de nueces sobre las hormonas sexuales en ratas Wistar macho diabéticas, inducidas por estreptozotocina (STZ). La diabetes en los animales fue inducida por STZ (60 mg/kg). Los animales fueron divididos aleatoriamente en 5 grupos (n= 6 ): saludable con dieta normal (Sham), diabéticos con dieta normal (control) y diabéticos con consumo de nogal en 6, 9 y 12% en su dieta (grupos experimentales), quienes se examinaron durante 6 semanas, donde se midieron el peso corporal, glucosa en la sangre (3 veces) y hormonas sexuales (testosterona , FSH y LH). En general, en términos del índice promedio, hubo una diferencia significativa en el porcentaje de cambios de peso entre los grupos (p<0,001). La glucosa en sangre aumentó significativamente en los grupos experimentales y de control en comparación con el grupo Sham (p<0,001). La concentración de FSH se redujo significativamente en el grupo control (p<0,05); la testosterona disminuyó en los grupos experimentales y control en comparación con el grupo sham (p<0,05). La administración oral de nogal parece prevenir la pérdida severa de peso en los modelos experimentales de ratas diabéticas y ejerce cambios apropiados y útiles en el nivel de glucosa en la sangre, así como efectos positivos sobre la secreción de hormonas sexuales.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: Gongronema latifolium leaves have been used in folklore medicine to manage diabetes mellitus and alleviate dyspepsia. This study aimed to provide a pharmacological basis to the medicinal use of Gongronema latifolium as an antidiabetic and antiulcerogenic agent in diabetes mellitus. METHODS: Ethanol extract from the leaf (200 mg/kg bodyweight) of Gongronema latifolium was administered to both streptozotocin-induced diabetic and control groups orally for 14 days. Gastric acid secretion was measured and ulcer was induced using ethanol and fourhour pyloric ligation. RESULTS: The mean bodyweight was significantly lower (p < 0.01), while the mean weight of the stomach, liver and small intestine to bodyweight ratio was increased significantly (p < 0.05) in the two diabetic groups compared to control. Extract significantly (p < 0.01) reduced the blood glucose level similar to the nondiabetic control. Basal and stimulated acid secretion in diabetic control rats was significantly (p < 0.01) decreased when compared to control. Extract administration increased the stimulated gastric acid secretion to a level significantly (p < 0.05) higher than control while reduction in gastric secretion by ranitidine was similar compared with control. Gongronema latifolium treatment significantly (p < 0.05) reduced ulcer scores in both ulcer models and increased mucus weight in the diabetic group. CONCLUSION: These results suggest that Gongronema latifolium antiulcerative activity is due to its prevention of chemicalinduced stomach injury.


OBJETIVOS: Las hojas de la gongronema latifolium han sido usadas en la medicina tradicional para tratar la diabetes mellitus y aliviar la dispepsia. Este estudio estuvo dirigido a proporcionar una base farmacológica al uso medicinal de la gongronema latifolium como agente antidiabético y antiulcerogénico en la diabetes mellitus. MÉTODOS: El extracto de etanol de la hoja (200 mg/kg peso corporal) de la Gongronema latifolium se administró oralmente durante 14 días a grupos con diabetes inducida por estreptozotocina, y grupos de control. La secreción ácida gástrica fue moderada y la úlcera fue inducida usando etanol, y ligazón pilórica de cuatro horas. RESULTADOS: El peso corporal promedio fue significativamente más bajo (p < 0.01), mientras que el peso promedio del estómago, el hígado y el intestino delgado con respecto a la proporción del peso corporal aumentó significativamente (p < 0.05) en los dos grupos diabéticos comparados con los controles. El extracto redujo significativamente (p < 0.01) el nivel de glucosa de la sangre, de manera similar al control no diabético. La secreción ácida basal y estimulada en las ratas diabéticas control disminuyó significativamente (p < 0.01) en comparación con el control. La administración del extracto aumentó la secreción ácida gástrica estimulada a un nivel significativamente (p < 0.05) superior al control, en tanto que la reducción de secreción gástrica mediante ranitidina fue similar comparada con el control. El tratamiento con Gongronema latifolium redujo significativamente (p < 0.05) las puntuaciones de las úlceras, tanto en los modelos de la úlcera como en el peso de mucosidad aumentado en el grupo diabético. CONCLUSIÓN: Estos resultados sugieren que la actividad antiulcerosa de la Gongronema latifolium se debe a que previene las lesiones de estómago inducidas por medios químicos.

RESUMO

This investigation was carried out to evaluate the effect of the extract of Urtica dioica leaves on hyperglycemia and quantitative changes of b-cells in streptozotocin-diabetic rats. Forty male Wistar rats were allocated in groups of normal, diabetic, treatment and protective. Hyperglycemia induced by administrating one dose of 80 mg/kg streptozotocin (STZ) intraperitoneally. Animals in treatment group received Urtica dioica (100 mg/kg/day) for 4 weeks intraperitoneally, one week after injection of STZ. In protective group animals received U. dioica (100 mg/kg/day) for 5 days before inducing diabetes. After five weeks the animals were sacrificed and whole pancreas removed. Pancreas specimens were used for quantitative morphometric analysis after Chromealum hematoxiline - phloxine staining. The mean +/- SE of b-cells in non hyperglycemic animals in protective group was higher than in hyperglycemic animals in the same group (54.33 +/- 2.4 versus 1.25 +/- 0.5, P<0.05). Hyperglycemia was improved in 6 (60 percent) of rats in protective group and 1 (10 percent) rat in treatment group OR=0.07 (CI 95 percent: 0.0-1.1, p=0.06). The logistic regression analysis showed an association between decrease of blood glucose, increase of number of b-cells and administration of Urtica before induction of diabetes. This study showed proliferation of b-cells when of the U. dioica leaves extract (100 mg/kg/day) administrated before induction of diabetes in animal model.


Este estudio evalúa el efecto del extracto de hojas de Urtica dioica sobre la hiperglicemia y de los cambios cuantitativos de células b en ratas diabéticas por estreptozotocina. Cuarenta ratas Wistar macho, fueron distribuidas en grupos normal, diabético, en tratamiento y protector. La hiperglicemia fue inducida, por vía intraperitoneal, a través de la administración de una dosis de 80 mg/kg de estreptozotocina (STZ) . Los animales del grupo en tratamiento recibieron Urtica dioica (100 mg/kg/día) durante 4 semanas por vía intraperitoneal, una semana después de la inyección de STZ. En los animales del grupo de protección recibieron U. dioica (100 mg/kg/día) durante 5 días antes de inducir la diabetes. Después de cinco semanas, los animales fueron sacrificados y se extirpó el páncreas. Muestras de páncreas se utilizaron para el análisis morfométrico cuantitativo después de la tinción hematoxilina/floxina. La media +/- SE de células b en los animales sin hiperglicemia y en el grupo de protección fue mayor que en los animales con hiperglicemia (54,33 +/- 2,4 frente a 1,25 +/- 0,5, p<0,05). La hiperglicemia mejoró en 6 (60 por ciento) de las ratas del grupo de protección y 1 (10 por ciento) de ratas en grupo de tratamiento OR=0,07 (IC 95 por ciento: 0,0-1,1, p=0,06). El análisis de regresión logística mostró una asociación entre la disminución de la glucosa en sangre, aumento del número de células b y la administración de Urtica antes de la inducción de la diabetes. Este estudio mostró una proliferación de las células b cuando el extracto de las hojas de U. dioica (100 mg/kg/día) administrado antes de la inducción de la diabetes en modelos animales.
