Introduction: One of the pressing issues of modern dermatology is the prevalence of diseases of skin and mucous membranes caused by yeast-like fungi. The aim: To study specific features of the course of skin and mucous membranes superficial candidosis against the background of initial carbohydrate metabolism disorders or diabetes mellitus. Materials and methods: We have examined 93 patients aged 18-75 suffering from superficial candidosis. Candidosis was diagnosed based on anamnesis data, results of clinical tests and laboratory studies. The study of carbohydrate metabolism included determining of the glucose level under fasting conditions to establish possible diabetes mellitus and glucose tolerance test (75 g glucose load), glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and fructosamine (FR). Results: In patients with mild and moderate candidosis we have detected an increased rates of НbA1с and fructosamine, as compared with the like indicators received in the control group, by 1.54 and 1.21 times respectively. In patients with severe candidosis and relapses the concentrations of НbA1с increased by 2.59 times, FR – by 2.26 times against the indicators received in the control group. Thus, increased levels of blood glycosylated protein indicate the pathogenetic importance of these processes in the development of candidosis. Conclusions: Consequently, increased levels of blood glycosylated protein indicates the pathogenetic importance of these processes in the development of candidal lesions. Tests for НbA1с and FR proved to be sensitive and allow reliable detection of individuals with diabetes mellitus and glucose intolerance among candidosis patients.

Metabolism Disorder

Background: Enteropancreatic hormonal system disorder is a possible reason for β-cell dysfunction and carbohydrate metabolism disorder among pregnant women. However, no information is available about the state of enteroinsulin hormones [glucagon, glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP), glucagon-like peptide1 (GLP-1) and GLP-2] during pregnancy. The role of enteroinsulin hormones in the development of carbohydrate metabolism disorder during pregnancy is poorly understood. Aim: To quantify and compare incretin hormone secretion in groups of pregnant women with and without gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Materials and methods: The study included 80 patients, 50 of whom had GDM, and the control group consisted of 30 pregnant women without GDM. All patients underwent an oral glucose tolerance test; glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) estimation; ferritin, transferrin, basal and postprandial glucagon estimation; GLP-1 and GLP-2 estimation. Results: Basal glucagon and GLP-1 levels were significantly higher (p 0. 05) in the group of women with GDM than in the control group. The most significant differences in GLP-1, basal and postprandial glucagon levels were observed during the first trimester of pregnancy. Conclusion: High GLP-1 levels in the group of women with GDM may reflect a state of ‘incretin resistance’, which is similar to hyperinsulinemia in the early stages of type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Glucose Metabolism Disorder

Abstract [Objective]: Hepcidin and ferroportin are major regulators of iron metabolism. Although many previous studies have shown that iron metabolism disorder may contribute to the pathogenesis of Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM), few studies have investigated hepcidin and other iron metabolism parameters in women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between hepcidin, ferroportin and GDM. [Methods]: A case-control study was conducted in 85 women with GDM and 85 women without GDM (controls) who received regular prenatal care at the Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital of Fudan University from October 2015 to May 2016. Serum ferritin (SF), hepcidin (Hepc), ferroportin (FPN), and soluble transferrin receptor (sTfR), as well as other clinical parameters, were detected and analyzed in all groups. [Results]: The levels of fasting plasma glucose (FPG), oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) 1-h and 2-h plasma glucose, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), SF, Hepc, FPN and sTfR as well as homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) were significantly higher in the GDM group (P<0.05 for all). In the GDM group, FPN was positively correlated OGTT-1 h and OGTT-2 h In the control group, only sTfR was positively correlated with OGTT-1 h. There was no correlation between the iron metabolism indicators in both GDM and control group.[Conclusion]: Hepc, FPN sRfR and SF levels were higher in the GDM group. Elevated Hepc and FPN are associated with glucose metabolism disorder and may play an important role in GDM.

Abstract We compared the oral glucose tolerance test (I) as evaluated by six commonly used scoring methods and total glycohemoglobin assay (II) with respect to their value in the diagnosis of diabetes mellitus. Depending on the evaluation method used for I, 16.7 to 64.3% of those subjects diagnosed as diabetic or borderline by this test were judged to be normal by II. The best agreement was between II and the Unger evaluation method. High-density-lipoprotein cholesterol, which showed an inverse correlation with II, was decreased in subjects judged to be diabetic by the Unger method. We conclude that the utilization of II measurement as a screening method for diabetes mellitus is consistent with a conservative approach to the diagnosis of diabetes.

Fenofibrate Treatment

Abstract Background: This study was to research the efficacy of fenofibrate in the treatment of microalbuminuria in the patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and hypertriglyceridemia. Methods: Type 2 diabetic patients (56) with microalbuminuria and hypertriglyceridemia aged 30 to 75 were randomly divided into the fenofibrate treatment group(n=28) and the control group (n=28) for 180 days. Urinary microalbumin /creatinine ratio (UACR) and other metabolic parameters were compared at baseline, during treatment and after treatment. Results: After 180 days, the reduction of levels of fasting blood glucose (FBG) and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) in two groups were no differences. In treatment group, uric acid (UA) (296.42 ± 56.41 vs 372.46 ± 72.78), triglyceride (TG) [1.51(1.17, 2.06) vs 3.04(2.21, 3.29)], and UACR [36.45 (15.78,102.41) vs 129.00 (53.00, 226.25)] were significantly decreased compared with the baseline. The high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels were significantly increased (1.22 ± 0.26 vs 1.09 ± 0.24) compared with the baseline. The decrease in UACR [-44.05(-179.47, -12.16) vs -8.15(-59.69, 41.94)]in treatment group was significantly higher compared with the control group. The decrease in UACR was positively associated with the decreases in TG ( r = 0.447, P = 0.042) and UA ( r = 0.478, P = 0.024) after fenofibrate treatment. Conclusion: In the patients with hypertriglyceridemia and type 2 diabetes mellitus, fenofibrate can improve microalbuminuria and do not increase the deterioration of glomerular filtration rate

Introduction: Gestational diabetes mellitus is common disorder in pregnancy. It is associated with adverse pregnancy outcome. There is no consensus regarding the optimal approach to screening of gestational diabetes mellitus. The present study has tried toobserve the value of fasting blood glucose in screening of gestational diabetes. Objective: To determine the frequency of patients in whomfasting blood glucose and 100gm glucose tolerance show agreement for screening of gestational diabetes mellitus at 24 -28 wks. Studydesign: Comparative cross sectional study. Settings: The study was conducted at Gynecology and Obstetrics department Shaikh ZayedFederal Post Graduate Institute Lahore. Duration of study with dates: 6 months from 12Nov 2010 to 11 May 2011. Material and method: Thestudy included 135 booked patients with positive family history of diabetes mellitus. All patients underwent fasting blood glucose at 24-28 weeksof gestation, regardless of results of fasting blood glucose on next visit they underwent 100g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). The agreementbetween fasting blood glucose and 100g oral glucose tolerance test was calculated in frequency and percentages. Results: The mean age ofwomen in studied population was 27.15±3.70.Out of 135 patients 86.7 %( 117) showed agreement between results of fasting blood glucose and100g OGTT while 13.31 %( 18) showed no agreement between both of the tests. Conclusions: Fasting blood glucose is a good screeningoption for gestational diabetes mellitus along with positive history. It provides a simple, cheap and more practical test for screening of gestationaldiabetes mellitus. However diagnostic confirmation with 100g OGTT should be done.
