IN THE ERA OF BUDGETARY CONSTRAINTS, COST-EFFECTIVE MANAGEMENT OF METABOLIC SYNDROME, TYPE 2 DIABETES, AND OBESITY IS ESSENTIAL

Authored by Sunil J Wimalawansa

The incidence and prevalence of type 2 diabetes, obesity, and metabolic syndrome have escalated in recent years, with skyrocketing associated management costs. Insufficient mass education on importance of healthy diet, adequate physical activities, and the lack of preventative measures are the most common reasons for this. In most countries, departments of health carry the financial burden. However, in western, industrialized countries, the cost is shared in varied proportions by the governments and insurance companies. Although the aforementioned entities pay these bills, costs eventually trickle down to consumers and taxpayers. The current approach of standardized care, a one-treatment-fits-all model, is inefficient in achieving the desired goal of preventing long-term complications and ads to the cost of managing these common diseases. A cause-driven, individualized approach may seem time consuming but likely to be the most cost-effective in the long run in controlling these diseases and containing costs through the prevention of long-term complications.

  CURRENT RESEARCH IN DIABETES & OBESITY JOURNAL JUNIPER PUBLISHERS   Authored by Farid A Badria  Introduction Diabetes mellitus is collection of metabolic disorders characterized by high serum glucose level in the body that is due to low insulin secretion or due to cellular unresponsiveness toward produced insulin. This high level of glucose produces the conventional symptoms of polyphagia, polydipsiaand polyuria [ 1 ]. Uncontrolled diabetes can cause diverse complications, diabetic ketoacidosis and non ketotic hyperosmolar coma fall under acute complications [ 2 ] while chronic complications comprise multiple tissue damage that results in stroke, cardiovascular disease, foot ulcers, renal failure and eye damage [ 3 ]. The general features of hyperglycemia-induced tissue damage are shown schematically. The DCCT (Diabetes Control and Complications Trial) and the UKPDS (U.K. Prospective Diabetes Study) established that hyperglycemia (far left of the...

Fibrinolytic, Platelets and Endothelial Microparticles Abnormalities among Obese Type 2 Diabetic Patients--Juniper Publishers

Image
JUNIPER PUBLISHERS- OPEN ACCESS JOURNAL OF DIABETES & OBESITY Abstract Background: The prevalence of cardiovascular disorders is progressively increased among type diabetic (T2DM) patients. While, the influence of association between obesity and T2DM on the level of platelets and endothelial microparticles remain to be fully elucidated. Objective: The aim of this was to measure the abnormalities of Fibrinolytic parameters, fibrinogen, platelets and endothelial microparticles among obese T2DM patients. Materials and Methods: Fifty non-smokers obese type 2 diabetic patients were included in this study. The mean age was47.13±5.42 year and mean body mass index was 33.34±4.11 kg/m2 refers as the first group (A). Initially, a physician at King Abdulaziz University Hospital examined all participants; their medical history was taken to collect information about general condition, physical activity and current medications if any. All subjects with any c...

Variable Diffusion of Cardiovascular Disease along the I-20 Corridor in Texas_Juniper Publishers

Image
  CURRENT RESEARCH IN DIABETES & OBESITY JOURNAL JUNIPER PUBLISHERS     Authored by Mario A Pitalua Rodriguez  Abstract Background and Objective: Visualization enables researchers to view variable diffusion spatially to pinpoint geographic areas of interest for further investigation, particularly with big or large amounts of data. Without the ability to visualize large amounts of data concerning diseases, such as CVD, important relationships may be missed that could have the potential of affecting public health policy and practice. Material and Methods: A subset of 60 variables previously reported as related to CVD is utilized for the at-risk population of CVD at the county level in the United States. CVD indicators across a geographical space (i.e., an Interstate highway in this study) expose differing levels of factors through areas of small and large populations. Results: The visual representation simplifies and summarizes the data allow...
