Background. Prolonged preoperative fasting is one of the concerns of pediatricians and anesthesiologists in pediatric surgery. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of preoperative fasting duration on blood glucose and hemodynamics in children. Methods. This cross-sectional study was conducted on 50 children who were between the ages of 3 and 12 years in Besat Hospital, Hamedan, Iran. The time of the last solid and liquid meal taken by child were recorded based on interview with the parents. The first blood glucose test was obtained in the operation room, and the second test was performed 20 minutes after induction of anesthesia by glucometer. Systolic blood pressure (SBP), mean arterial pressure (MAP), and heart rate (HR) were recorded before anesthesia induction and in five-minute intervals in the first 20 minutes of surgery. Results. The mean age of the children was 6.63 (SD 1.85) years. Mean blood glucose 20 minutes after surgery was 101.17 (SD 92) mg/dl, which was significantly higher than the baseline values (87.66 (SD 11.84) mg/dl) (P<0.001). The comparison of mean blood glucose level between groups of fasting with different duration for solids (<12 hours and >12 hours) and for liquids (<6 hours and >6 hours) revealed no significant difference in either groups (P>0.05). No significant correlation was observed between blood glucose level at the induction of anesthesia with weight and age (P>0.05). There was a significantly negative correlation between duration of fasting for liquids and SBP (P>0.05). Conclusion. Prolonged preoperative fasting cannot affect blood glucose in children; however, maybe it has impact on systolic blood pressure.

Sleep deprivation is a risk factor for cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. There was a high prevalence of high blood pressure and type 2 diabetes in Morangan, Yogyakarta Province. This study aims at studying the correlation between sleep duration, systolic blood pressure and fasting blood glucose levels of people in Morangan. This study was a cross-sectional study conducted in cooperation with a public health care program for people in Morangan. Data collection was done using a questionnaire and health screening procedure during the public health care program. Collected data were covering aspects of systolic blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, sleep duration, and sleep habit. There was a high prevalence of high systolic blood pressure (>130mmHg; 66.04%) and high fasting blood glucose level (>100mg/dL; 39.62%) in Morangan people. There was a significantly positive correlation between sleep duration and systolic blood pressure (p:0.024; r:0.31) but no significant correlation between sleep duration and fasting blood glucose level. The major contributing habits towards sleep deprivation were caffeine consumption and medium pre-sleep routine. The result of this research will provide help in designing an education program for people of Morangan in preventing and treating high blood pressure and type 2 diabetes.

Background and Purpose: Hyperglycemia is reported to be associated with poor outcome in patients with spontaneous Intracerebral Hemorrhage (ICH), but the association between blood glucose level and outcomes in Primary Intraventricular Hemorrhage (PIVH) remains unclear. We sought to identify the parameters associated with admission hyperglycemia and analyze the impact of hyperglycemia on clinical outcome in patients with PIVH. Methods: Patients admitted to Department of Neurosurgery, West China Hospital with PIVH between 2010 and 2016 were retrospectively included in our study. Clinical, radiographic, and laboratory data were collected. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify independent predictors of poor outcomes. Results: One hundred and seventy patients were included in the analysis. Mean admission blood glucose level was 7.78±2.73 mmol/L and 10 patients (5.9%) had a history of diabetes mellitus. History of diabetes mellitus (P = 0.01; Odds Ratio [OR], 9.10; 95% Confidence Interval [CI], 1.64 to 50.54) was independent predictor of admission critical hyperglycemia defined at 8.17 mmol/L. Patients with admission critical hyperglycemia poorer outcome at discharge (P < 0.001) and 90 days (P < 0.001). After adjustment, admission blood glucose was significantly associated with discharge (P = 0.01; OR, 1.30; 95% CI, 1.06 to 1.59) and 90-day poor outcomes (P = 0.03; OR, 1.27; 95% CI, 1.03 to 1.58), as well as mortality at 90 days (P = 0.005; OR, 1.41; 95% CI, 1.11 to 1.78). In addition, admission critical hyperglycemia showed significantly increased the incidence rate of pneumonia in PIVH (P = 0.02; OR, 6.04; 95% CI 1.27 to 28.80) even after adjusting for the confounders. Conclusion: Admission blood glucose after PIVH is associated with discharge and 90-day poor outcomes, as well as mortality at 90 days. Admission hyperglycemia significantly increases the incidence rate of pneumonia in PIVH.

BACKGROUND: Hyperglycemia is a marker of poor clinical outcomes in studies evaluating hospitalized critically ill patients.OBJECTIVES: To identify whether glycemic control is associated with health outcomes including acute coronary events, renal failure, infection, hospital length of stay, intensive care unit (ICU) admission, sepsis and mortality in noncritically ill patients administered parenteral nutrition (PN), and to compare the current standard of care for glucose monitoring at the Foothills Medical Centre (Calgary, Alberta) with the 2009 American Society of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition guidelines.METHODS: A retrospective chart review of 100 adult (18 years of age or older) non-ICU inpatients who received PN for seven days or longer at the Foothills Medical Centre was conducted.RESULTS: Seventeen patients (17%) had a mean blood glucose level of 10.0 mmol/L or greater. PN patients with a mean blood glucose level of 10 mmol/L or greater had a higher rate of mortality than patients with a mean blood glucose level of less than 10 mmol/L (OR 7.22; 95% CI 1.08 to 48.29; P=0.042). Hyperglycemia was independently and significantly associated with mortality when adjusted for age and sex. Acute coronary events, renal failure, infection, hospital length of stay, ventilator use and ICU admissions were not associated with hyperglycemia. Only one-half of those with hyperglycemia, and none of the patients in the euglycemic group, received adequate glucose monitoring during the first two days of PN.CONCLUSION: Hyperglycemia in noncritically ill inpatients receiving PN was found to be a risk factor for increased mortality.

Background. Due to the frequent development of neuropathy in diabetic patients, it is believed that this category of patients is characterized by a high incidence of atypical acute coronary syndrome, but data about this are quite contradictory. The purpose of the study was to determine pain syndrome features and its severity in patients with acute coronary syndrome and diabetes mellitus. Materials and methods. The study involved 24 patients with diabetes (19 men and 5 women) aged 45–83 years, hospitalized urgently for the acute coronary syndrome. Assessment of pain syndrome was performed at the time of hospitalization and immediately after coronary artery revascularization according to the following criteria: visual analogue scale (VAS), numerical rating scale (NRS), clinical data (sweating, tremor, blood pressure, pulse), blood glucose level. Results. Most patients (87.5 %) at the time of hospitalization complained of chest pain, the rest were not bothered by any pain. Patients described pain as “burning” (29.17 %), “squeezing” (29.17 %), “tightness” (25.0 %), “tingling” (4.17 %). There were also complaints of difficulty breathing (12.5 %), shortness of breath (12.5 %), palpitations (41.67 %), excessive sweating (16.67 %). There was no statistically significant difference between the results of pain assessment by VAS and NRS (p > 0.1). The results of the subjective assessment of pain syndrome by VAS and NRS indicate that before revascularization, moderate and severe pain occurred with equal frequency. There were no statistically significant fluctuations in blood pressure and heart rate before and after the intervention in patients with different pain severity (p > 0.1). At the time of hospitalization, the mean systolic blood pressure was 135.71 ± 18.70 mmHg, diastolic blood pressure was 83.71 ± 14.67 mmHg, heart rate was 73.08 ± 11.35 bpm. The mean value of glycemia at the time of hospitalization was 8.19 ± 3.45 mmol/l (8.17 ± 3.61 mmol/l in men, 8.28 ± 3.13 mmol/l in women). Blood glucose level ≥ 10.0 mmol/l was detected in 5 patients, i.e. in 20.83 % of all patients. The majority of these individuals had severe pain (60.0 %). Conclusions. In patients with myocardial infarction and diabetes mellitus, the typical clinical picture of ACS (87.5 %) prevailed over the painless form. Before revascularization, moderate and severe pain occurred with equal frequency; there is no statistical difference between blood pressure, heart rate and blood glucose level (p > 0.1) in patients with severe and moderate pain. Hyperglycemia (≥ 10.0 mmol/l) was detected in 20.83 % of patients, most of them had severe pain (60.0 %). The lack of difference between the values of the studied pain criteria may be due to the sample size, the low sensitivity of the criteria, the development of diabetic neuropathy. As a result, there is a need for further study of the phenomenon of pain syndrome in patients with ACS and diabetes mellitus.

Background: In resource-limited countries like Bangladesh, there is a scarcity of epidemiological researches examining the relationship of blood glucose level with hypertension and BMI among the graduate level students. This research was therefore undertaken to evaluate fasting blood glucose levels of Mawlana Bhashani Science and Technology University students and to check its associations with sex, body mass index (BMI) and hypertension. Methods: For the study the 240 students (120 male and 120 female) were randomly selected. The demographic data of the study subjects were collected by interviewing the subjects with standardized questionnaires. Their fasting blood glucose levels were measured using portable blood glucose meter. The BMI and blood pressure of the subjects were also recorded following standard protocol. Finally the data were analyzed with SPSS software. Results: The fasting blood glucose levels of the study subjects indicated that 0.4% of subjects were diabetic and, 5.4% of subjects were pre-diabetic. The blood glucose levels (mean±SE) of female subjects (4.88±0.07) were higher than that of the male (4.61±0.04) subjects. The mean blood glucose levels of hypertensive subjects (4.81±0.07 mmol/L) were higher than that of the normotensive counterpart (4.73±0.05 mmol/L). The fasting blood glucose levels shows significant positive associations with SBP (r=0.155, p<0.05) and DBP (r=0.149, p<0.05).The fasting blood glucose levels also showed a significant positive association with the BMI (r=0.193, p<0.01) of the subjects. Conclusions: This study reveals the diabetic and hypertension status of the Bangladeshi graduate level students. The result of the study is very important in the context of public concern health of Bangladesh.

<strong>Effect of Stocking Density on Oxygen Consumption and Stress Response in Crescent Betta (<em>Betta imbellis</em>)</strong>. Stocking density is one of the determinant parameters for fish growth optimization in aquaculture systems due to its relationship with fish metabolism. Information about the impact of different stocking densities on crescent betta (<em>Betta imbellis</em>) metabolism was not available yet. This study was aimed to analyze the effect of stocking density on oxygen consumption, critical oxygen level, and stress responses in crescent betta.The study was carried out under three different stocking density treatments: 5, 10, and 15 fish/L with three replications using 2.74 ± 0.23 cm total length and 0.22 ± 0.05 g body weight tested fishes.The parameters observed were oxygen consumption, ventilation rate, blood glucose level, cortisol, and critical oxygen level. The result showed that the highest oxygen consumption was found at 5 fish/L stocking density treatment (3.01 ± 0.28 mg O<sub>2</sub>/g/h), which was significantly different from 10 fish/L (1.01 ± 0.21 mg O<sub>2</sub>/g/h) and 15 fish/L (0.92 ± 0.08 mg O<sub>2</sub>/g/h) stocking density treatments. Oxygen consumptions under hypoxic condition was not significantly different compared to normoxic condition.The ventilation rate tends to increase significantly along with the increasing of stocking densities. Critical oxygen levels were not significantly different among the treatments,with the value of 3.31 ± 0.65 mg/L, 3.14 ± 0.29 mg/L, and 2.83 ± 0.19 mg/L for stocking density of 5, 10, and 15 fish/L, respectively. The blood glucose level at 15 fish/L stocking density was significantly higher than others, whereas the cortisol levels was not significantly different among the treatments. The results of this study provided information that the increasing stocking density of cressent betta will decrease their metabolism activity and increase ventilation rate. However, the increase of ventilation rate was negatively correlated with oxygen consumption per breath at higher stocking densities due to decrease in fish activity; and higher stocking densities will decrease oxygen consumption. Based on the results, it can be concluded that the ideal stocking density for crescent betta is 5 fish/L. The increasing of stocking density will decrease oxygen consumption rates and increase the stress level of crescent betta.
