SGLT2 inhibitors based on recent evidence have shown promising Cardio vascular benefits apart from Glycemic Control in T2DM management. ESC-EASD 2019 clearly suggest that All SGLT2i reduces CV risk (3P MACE), HHF, worsening of Nephropathy .Only Empagliflozin has been recommended for reducing the Risk of CV death in T2DM with ASCVD & the CV death remains independent of baseline HbA1c or control of HbA1c. Empagliflozin CV death is very unique because the consistency of Mortality benefit remains very significant in patients of T2DM with various CVD (like Single Vessel disease CAD, Multiple Vessel Disease CAD, Prior CABG, Prior MI, Prior Stroke, Prior HHF, PAD).

Intensive management was started immediately. Physiologic saline serum 0.9% was administered by two peripheral venous catheters (16G). A tracheal tube after a crush induction by Etomidat and succinylcholine allowed invasive ventilation under 60% of oxygen to reach 98% of saturation. Sedation was realized with fentanyl only at first. Then, femoral venous catheter allows adrenalin administration at progressively dose to 0.5μg/kg/min for obtaining stabilized hemodynamic status.

Diabetes mellitus comprises of metabolic diseases that are characterized by elevated levels of blood glucose or hyperglycaemia, which is a result of insulin deficiency, insulin resistance or both. Marked hyperglycaemia causes an increase in morbidity and mortality that are related to macrovascular and microvascular complications. Musculoskeletal disorders seem to occur often in patients who have diabetes. Musculoskeletal pain is a usual occurrence in patients who have diabetes compared to the general population. The aim of this review was to explore and musculoskeletal disorders in diabetes. Diabetes causes significant morbidity and mortality and has been found to have an association with musculoskeletal disorders. A number of studies have found that diabetes has an association with musculoskeletal disorders such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, osteoporosis, fibromyalgia and carpal tunnel syndrome however the reasons underlying them are unclear. This review looks at the effects of diabetes on musculoskeletal disorders and the mechanisms through which diabetes contributes to them, so as to have a better understanding of the impact they may have in patients with diabetes.

The Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is increasing in incidence and prevalence worldwide, taking the shape of the pandemic proportions, which is expected to increase further over a couple of decades. In 2019, an estimated 9.3% of the population (463 million people), globally had DM. Projection of future DM burden may increase to 10.2% (578 million people) by 2030 and 10.9% (700 million people) by next 25 years (2045). The decrease in immunity in diabetic patients has been a significant concern for physicians and patients alike. The role of mitochondria and it is cellular signaling can elaborate on this problem in depth. Mitochondria is a rich source of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and plays a crucial role in cellular metabolism for energy. They are targets of ROS and many different cellular signals like mitochondrial membrane apoptosis due to hyperglycemia and ROS. The interplay between oxidative stress and diabetes further activated, leading to increased permeability of mitochondrial membrane & apoptosis; this leads to a decrease in immunity in diabetic patients leading to increased mortality and morbidity. Hyperglycemia and ROS major pathways of apoptosis through mitochondrial activation in diabetic patients leading to decreased immunity.

T2DM formerly known as non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus or adult-onset diabetes is a metabolic disorder that is characterized by high levels of blood glucose resulting from insulin resistance and relative insulin deficiency. It is an emerging pandemic and is rapidly becoming a serious threat to public health.1 H. pylori is a gram-negative, spiral shaped pathogenic bacterium that specifically colonizes on the gastric epithelium, it is one of the most common human bacterial pathogens and infection causes a wide array of gastric disorders, including simple gastritis, peptic ulcers and gastric malignancies. Gastrointestinal inflammation caused by H. pylori can influence the absorption of glucose and lipids, which are also abnormal in DM patients.2,3 It is a common infection in diabetic patients who have inadequate metabolic control, individuals are colonized by H. pylori infection in the gastric antrum, probably because of chemotactic factors such as tumor necrotic factor (TNF), interleukins-IL-1, IL-2, and IL-8, which are present in gastric epithelium.4,5 Beside DM the H. pylori is also a well be established cause of dyspepsia, the incidence of H. pylori is increased in DM may be due to delay gastric emptying and antraldy smotility, which are important causes of dyspepsia in diabetes, the role of H. pylori infection in diabetic dyspepsia is mainly related to blood glucose concentration, reduce of acid secretion and secrete higher of pro-inflammatory cytokines.5,6 Recent evidence has shown that qat chewing does indeed delay gastric emptying of a semisolid meal, probably as a result of the sympathomimetic action of cathinone in qat. Inflammation and activated innate immunity have been implicated in pathogenesis of diabetes through insulin resistance, for example, elevated levels of inflammatory cytokines may lead to phosphorylation of serine residues on the insulin receptor substrate, which prevents its interaction with insulin receptors, inhibiting insulin action or altered glucose metabolism may produce chemical changes in the gastric mucosa that promote H. pylori colonization So, individuals with diabetes are more frequently exposed to pathogens than their healthy counterparts.7–10 This study was conducted to reveal the prevalence of H. pylori among T2DM and non-DM patients with the association between Qat chewing and potential risk factors.
T2DM以前被称为非胰岛素依赖型糖尿病或成人发病糖尿病，是一种代谢紊乱，其特征是胰岛素抵抗和相对胰岛素缺乏导致高血糖。这是一种新出现的流行病，正迅速成为对公众健康的严重威胁幽门螺杆菌是一种专门定植于胃上皮的革兰氏阴性螺旋形致病菌，是最常见的人类细菌病原体之一，感染可引起多种胃疾病，包括单纯性胃炎、消化性溃疡和胃恶性肿瘤。幽门螺旋杆菌引起的胃肠道炎症会影响葡萄糖和脂质的吸收，这在DM患者中也是异常的。2,3是代谢控制不充分的糖尿病患者的常见感染，个体在胃窦被幽门螺杆菌感染定植，可能是由于胃上皮中存在的趋化因子，如肿瘤坏死因子(TNF)、白细胞介素- il -1、IL-2和IL-8。4、5除糖尿病外，幽门螺杆菌也是公认的引起消化不良的原因之一，糖尿病患者幽门螺杆菌发病率增高可能与胃排空延迟、胃窦蠕动迟缓等是糖尿病患者消化不良的重要原因有关，幽门螺杆菌感染在糖尿病消化不良中的作用主要与血糖浓度、胃酸分泌减少、促炎细胞因子分泌增多有关。最近的证据表明，咀嚼卡塔尔确实可以延迟半固体食物的胃排空，这可能是由于卡塔尔中的卡西酮的交感神经作用。炎症和激活的先天免疫通过胰岛素抵抗与糖尿病的发病机制有关，例如，炎症细胞因子水平升高可能导致胰岛素受体底物上丝氨酸残基的磷酸化，从而阻止其与胰岛素受体的相互作用，抑制胰岛素的作用或改变葡萄糖代谢可能在胃粘膜产生化学变化，促进幽门螺杆菌定植。糖尿病患者比健康人更容易接触到病原体。7-10本研究旨在揭示T2DM和非dm患者中幽门螺杆菌的患病率以及咀嚼卡特与潜在危险因素之间的关系。

Burden of diabetes has escalated worldwide and global death rate has doubled in last two decades. About 88 million people are living with diabetes in Southeast Asian countries and it is expected to shoot up rapidly because of changing life style and longevity of life. Unfortunately, diabetes is not well managed in these countries because of several factors but mainly due to poor doctor-to-population ratio. Recently, World Health Organization has also advised accessible, affordable and quality diabetes care in Southeast Asian countries through extended role of nurses in diabetes care. The model of independent nurse-led diabetes clinic and advanced diabetes nurse practitioner for management of diabetes has been successful in the western world. This article highlights the scope, feasibility, challenges, barriers and facilitators in implementation of nurse-led diabetes clinics (NLDC) in Southeast Asian countries.

Background: Vitamin D is unique among vitamins as it can be synthesized from the action of ultra violet radiation upon the skin. This study was done to investigate prevalence of Vitamin D deficiency among health care professionals. Method: This was an institution based cross sectional prevalence study conducted over period of one year at Medical College, Kolkata, India. The study was conducted among 50 doctors, 25 nurses and 25 laboratory technicians. After getting demographic data, serum Vitamin D level was measured in each subject and statistical analysis done. Result: Mean age of study subject was 51.69±7.61 years. Result showed that 63% were male and 37% were female. In this study 73% of the subjects were deficient in Vitamin D level. 25% of subjects had insufficient Vitamin D level and only 2% subject has sufficient D level. Conclusion: Vitamin D deficiency is highly prevalent among health care professionals. Lack of sunlight exposure, changes in lifestyle and food habits contribute to low Vitamin D levels in this population.
