Restrictive Pattern

Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a group of metabolic disorders characterized by hyperglycemia and deranged metabolism of carbohydrates, lipids and protein that result from insensitivity to endogenous insulin. It is a substantial global health problem and markedly increases morbidity and mortality of the affected people.Methods: The present study was conducted in the Department of medicine Dr. B.R.A.M. Hospital, Raipur. Total 67 subjects with type II diabetes mellitus as per WHO criteria of diabetes mellitus, aged between 18-60years of both sexes were included in the study. Patients FBS, PPBS were analysed by glucose oxidase (GOD), peroxidase (POD) methods in ILAB 650 analyser and HbA1C was analysed using HPLC. Pulmonary function test was conducted in all the subjects using the spirometer which is the gold standard for accurate and repeatable measurement of lung function.Results: Majority of the subjects were male (36, 53.7%) and belonged to age group of 51-60years (n=34, 50.7%), Duration of DM </=10years (n=47, 70.1%), restrictive pulmonary function in 10 (14.9%) subjects. Correlation of age with a restrictive pattern of PFT (P=0.013*) and with duration of diabetes (P<0.0001**). Pulmonary function test parameters having mild downstream correlation with diabetes mellitus.Conclusions: Diabetes was more common in the sixth decade of life with slight male preponderance. The short-term indicators of glycaemic controls were not significantly associated with a restrictive pattern of PFT. Despite the best effort, there are limitations of this study, which includes small sample size, author have not taken general population, and lack of a control group. These limitations can be overcome in the future studies.

Restrictive Pattern

Tuberculosis is one of the most important communicable disease, which poses a global public health threat and remains the leading cause of death among infectious diseases, especially in undeveloped and developing countries.It was a prospective, observational, hospital based study conducted in the department of Respiratory Medicine, IPGMER SSKM Hospital, Kolkata from January 2020 to December 2020. Atotal of 80 cases, with history of adequately treated one episode of pulmonary tuberculosis, were included in this study.According to pulmonary function test results, 30(37.5%) patients had obstructive pattern and 11(13.8%) had restrictive pattern, in spirometry. Another 15(18.8%) patients had, mixed obstructive/restrictive pattern, while in rest 24 (30%) patients, spirometry test results were normal. The distribution of various pulmonary function test results among patients with obstructive pattern (N=30), ATT completion history was 7.57 ± 2.77 years back in average. Whereas average duration of symptoms in them was found to be 4.03 ± 1.96 years. For patients with restrictive pattern (N=11), these durations were 10.91 ± 2.51years and 7.59 ± 2.35 years respectively. Patients with mixed pattern (N=15), both durations were 11.33 ± 3.50 years and 7.33 ± 2.94 years respectively. Whereas among patients with normal lung function (N=24), ATT completion duration was 2.83 ± 2.21 years and symptom onset duration was 0.63 ± 0.34 years.There was emphatically found thatduration of anti-tubercular treatment, duration of symptoms and pulmonary function abnormalities. Hence clinical suspicion, early diagnosis and early treatment strategy are required to prevent further deterioration of pulmonary function in treated Pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) patients. So, frequent or annual spirometry is required in these patients.
