Iron Profile in Gestational Diabetes Mellitus
Abstract: Background: The precise mechanisms behind the etio-pathogenesis of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) are unknown. According to epidemiological evidence, GDM is linked to higher body iron reserves. Higher serum ferritin levels, which are widely employed as a marker of the body's iron store, have been observed in people with diabetes mellitus. The goal of this study was to see if this occurred in GDM women. Materials and Methods: From April 2023 …

Mucormycosis: An Emerging Challenge among COVID-19 Patients
Abstract: Mucormycosis is a rare angio-invasive opportunistic fungal infection that has become an emerging challenge among COVID-19 patients. The higher incidence of mucormycosis among COVID-19 patients has been attributed to hypoxia, pre-existing or steroid induced diabetes, diabetic ketoacidosis, increased ferritin levels, and SARS-CoV-2 or steroid mediated immunosuppression. Other contributing factors include prolonged hospitalization with or without use of mechanical ventilators.The epidemiology and etiopathogenesis of this disease are still evolving. Once infected, …
