The Relationship Between HbA1c and Inflammatory Markers in Acute Ischemic Stroke with and without Diabetes Mellitus
Abstract: Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a prominent risk factor for acute ischemic stroke (AIS), contributing significantly to morbidity and mortality worldwide. Although inflammatory markers like neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and C-reactive protein (CRP) are recognized as playing a role in the development of acute ischemic stroke (AIS), their association with diabetes mellitus (DM) in individuals affected by AIS remains uncertain. This study seeks to investigate the differences in …

Early Pregnancy Levels of Fasting Glucose, HbA1c, and Adiponectin as Predictors of Gestational Diabetes Mellitus Among Pregnant Women in Tamil Nadu, India
Abstract: Background: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is rapidly becoming a major public health issue across India, and Tamil Nadu continues to report some of the country’s highest incidence figures. Identifying women at elevated risk during the first trimester allows health workers to intervene early and improve outcomes for both mothers and babies. This research, therefore, examines whether fasting plasma glucose, glycated haemoglobin, and adiponectin measured at that initial visit can reliably …

Role of Inflammatory Markers and Lipid Abnormalities in Glycemic Dysregulation Among Type 2 Diabetics
Abstract: Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by systemic inflammation and associated with various complications in multiple organs. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) specifically involves insulin resistance, hyperglycemia, and inflammatory responses. This study investigates the levels of various inflammatory markers and their correlation with glycaemic control in T2DM patients. Objective: To evaluate the levels of inflammatory markers (including NLR, PLR, SII, SIRI, CRP, IL-6, TNF-α, TGF-β, MCP-1, …

A summary continuation analysis evaluating the prevalence and predictors of diabetic retinopathy in newly diagnosed type 2 diabetic patients.
Abstract: Context: Diabetic retinopathy (DR), the leading cause of acquired blindness in adults, affects approximately 93 million people globally. It is a serious complication of type 2 diabetes, resulting from prolonged damage to the blood vessels in the retina. Although largely preventable and treatable, DR continues to be the main cause of vision loss among working-age adults and significantly impacts quality of life. While most studies on DR in Nepal have …

Practical approach for Type 2 Diabetes: Role of DPP4 Inhibitors
Abstract: Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4Is) have become essential in managing type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) due to their ability to enhance incretin hormone activity, which promotes insulin secretion and inhibits glucagon release. These agents effectively lower HbA1c levels by 0.5–1.0%, are weight-neutral, and have a low risk of hypoglycemia, making them suitable for a broad patient population, including the elderly. The antidiabetic market in India is vast. Gliptin as group row …
