An 86-year-old woman with diabetes mellitus and severe decubitus at the sacral and calcaneal regions stemming from poor daily activity was diagnosed with pyometra perforation caused byActinomyces. No foreign materials, including an IUD, were found inside the uterus. Pyometra is usually caused by Enterobacteriaceae or anaerobes derived from the gastrointestinal tract. The virulence ofActinomycesis rather low, and, in almost all the reported cases ofActinomyces-related pyometra, an intrauterine device (IUD) was involved. Although rare,Actinomycesmay be ascribed as a virulent pathogen that causes pyometra in the absence of foreign materials.

AbstractThe genus Klebsiella is seemingly ubiquitous in terms of its habitat associations. Klebsiella is a common opportunistic pathogen for humans and other animals, as well as being resident or transient flora (particularly in the gastrointestinal tract). Other habitats include sewage, drinking water, soils, surface waters, industrial effluents, and vegetation. Until recently, almost all these Klebsiella have been identified as one species, ie, K. pneumoniae. However, phenotypic and genotypic studies have shown that “K. pneumoniae” actually consists of at least four species, all with distinct characteristics and habitats. General habitat associations of Klebsiella species are as follows: K. pneumoniae—humans, animals, sewage, and polluted waters and soils; K. oxytoca—frequent association with most habitats; K. terrigena— unpolluted surface waters and soils, drinking water, and vegetation; K. planticola—sewage, polluted surface waters, soils, and vegetation; and K. ozaenae/K. rhinoscleromatis—infrequently detected (primarily with humans).

The type of sport suggested for Diabetes Mellitus patient is Diabetes Gym, but most societies, especially diabetes mellitus patients are lazy to do it. On diabetes mellitus type 2, diabetes gym acts as glycemic control which manages and control blood sugar rate. This research purposes to know diabetes gym influence toward the decrease of blood sugar rate on Diabetes Mellitus patient type 2 in Puskesmas Pakis Surabaya. This research used quasy experiment design. Total of the population of all Diabetes Mellitus patients type 2 is 28 respondents taken by probability sampling - simple random sampling technique; 14 respondents in control group and 14 respondents in treatment group. The independent variable is Diabetes Gym and the dependent variable is the decrease of blood sugar rate. Data are collected by using Glucometer, striptest, needle and observation sheet. Data are analyzed by using Wilcoxon signed rank test with α < 0.05. The result of this research shows that almost all of the respondents in the treatment group have a good category of blood sugar decrease after performing gym, meanwhile almost all of the respondents in control group that do not perform gym have an adequate category of blood sugar decrease. Then, the result is analyzed by Wilcoxon signed rank test and obtained ρ (0,019) < α (0,05) so H0 is refused. It means that there is an influence of diabetes gym to the decrease of blood sugar on the Diabetes Mellitus patients type 2 in Puskesmas Pakis Surabaya. Performing Diabetes Gym influences in decreasing blood sugar rate. Therefore, nurse can take a part in leading diabetes patients to perform diabetes gym so it can be used as the therapy in controlling and decreasing blood sugar rate.

Upper Gastrointestinal

The constant increase in the incidence of diabetes in the world and the high frequency of lesions of the upper gastrointestinal tract with impaired motor function in this category of patients, on the one hand, worsen the clinical picture, and on the other, reduce the effectiveness of sugar-lowering therapy. Currently, specialists have at their disposal a number of prokinetics that contribute to the restoration of the motor-evacuation function of the stomach, but many of them have many undesirable effects. The aim of our study was to evaluate the effectiveness of itopride hydrochloride in the treatment of patients with chronic gastritis associated with Helicobacter pylori and type 2 diabetes. During the study, both general clinical and more specific research methods were used, in particular, esophagogastroduodenoscopy. According to the results of the study, the use of prokinetics in the treatment of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus reduces the manifestations of impaired motor-evacuation function of the upper gastrointestinal tract. The results obtained indicate to verify the manifestations of chronic gastritis in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and the identification of motor dysfunction and the need for prokinetic therapy.

Design And Methods

ObjectiveDepression may be difficult to treat and with comorbid diabetes mellitus (DM) it is an even bigger challenge. This article aims to evaluate antidepressants most suitable for patients with depression and comorbid DM.Design and methodsInitially we searched for randomised, controlled double-blind trials of treatment with antidepressants in depressed with DM but there were only a few studies and many of them were small trials. Thus, we decided to include studies that were not only randomised-controlled trials. In total, we ended up with 18 articles for our purposes.ResultsThe combination of depression and DM may be harmful as depression has a strong impact on psychosocial and medical outcomes in patients with DM. Almost all of the trials in this review showed a reduction in depressive symptoms after treatment with an antidepressant in the acute as well as during maintenance phase. It showed that depression improvement had a favourable effect on glycaemic control that was weight independent. Some studies included only subjects with minor depression or with suboptimal-controlled diabetes making it difficult to show an effect.ConclusionFrom these data, we will recommend choosing an selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) if possible to treat a depression among patients with diabetes. If treatment with a tricyclic antidepressant is needed, closer glycaemic monitoring is recommended. Bear in mind that there is a possible risk of hypoglycemia when using SSRIs. Agomelatine and bupropion have shown promising results, but need to be investigated in more trials.

Prevalensi penyakit degeneratif dari tahun ke tahun meningkat akibat perubahan gaya hidup, khususnya perubahan pola makan. Walaupun tempe sebagai makanan tradisional Indonesia yang banyak dikonsumsi masyarakat karena mudah diperoleh dan harga terjangkau, tidak banyakyang mengetahui manfaat tempe bagi kesehatan. Tempe lama dikenal sebagai sumber protein yang dikonsumsi oleh kalangan masyarakat berpenghasilan rendah. Kajian lebih mendalam mengenai kandungan gizi dan manfaat tempe dan bagi kesehatan, khusus sebagai pencegah penyakit degeneratif perlu dilakukan. Proses fermentasi kedelai menjadi tempe mengakibatkan perubahan zat gizi dan non gizi yang mengakibatkan manfaat tempe jauh lebih baik dibandingkan kedelai. Protein tempe lebih mudah di cerna tubuh, sedangkan asam amino arginin yang meningkat hampir dua kali lipat pada tempe, sangat tinggi manfaatnya bagi kesehatan terutama dalam memperbaiki profil lipid dan diabetes mellitus. Mempertimbangkan hal tersebut tempe dapat dipertimbangkan sebagai pangan fungsional yangbermanfaat bagi kesehatan.Kata kunci: Tempe, protein, arginin, profil lipid, diabetes mellitusAbstractDegenerative diseases prevalence had been arining over years. One of the causes is the life style changes including eating pattern. Tempeh, an Indonesian soybean traditionally fermented food, was known and consumed by almost all Indonesian people. However, only a few know the health benefit of tempeh. Tempeh was also welknown and cheap protein source food affordable for the poor. Hence, there is a need to explore the nutritious content of tempeh and health benefit of it deeper such as in preventing degenerative diseases. Fermentation process of soybean to becometempeh had improved nutrient and non-nutrient contents that make tempeh better than soybean. Tempeh protein is more digestible than soybean and the arginine content increases twice, that could improve lipid profile and diabetes mellitus. Tempeh could be considered as functional food having health benefit.Key words: Tempeh, protein, arginine, lipid profile, diabetes mellitus

The last two decades have witnessed a storm in our understanding of the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy. In parallel, the newly evolved hypoglycemic agents have shown different mechanisms of action that would effectively tackle the different pathogenic mechanisms involved in the development and progression of diabetic nephropathy. Several large prospective placebo controlled clinical trials have supported the significant impact of these different agents to withhold the progression of diabetic nephropathy. Almost all these trials involved type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, most of these agents can additionally be used in type1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) patients aiming at avoidance of long-term complications of this disease. The most recent of these trial, the DECLARE - TIMI 58 renal outcome trial, have additionally declared the preventive value of dapagliflozin in T2DM. In this review, we are going to discuss the most recent and relevant pathogenic mechanisms highlight the therapeutic and value of the early use of the different agents to prevent the development of diabetic nephropathy.
