To study the effect of Vitamin D3 supplementation on metabolic control in an obese type 2 diabetes Emirati population.This randomized double-blind clinical trial was conducted with 87 vitamin D-deficient obese, diabetic participants. The D-group (n=45) and placebo group (n=42) were matched for gender, age, HbA1c 25-hydroxy D (25(OH) D) at baseline. divided into two phases 3 months each; phase 1, received 6000 IU D3/day followed by 3000 2, whereas matching placebo.After supplementation, serum...
Background . Blood pressure (BP) percentiles in childhood are assessed according to age, gender, and height. Objective To create a simple BP/height ratio for both systolic BP (SBP) diastolic (DBP). study the relationship between ratios corresponding children. Methods We analyzed data on height from 2006-2007 NHANES data. were calculated 3775 Receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve analyses performed calculate sensitivity specificity of as diagnostic tests elevated (>90%)....
Abstract Background: The mineralocorticoid receptor is protected from excess of glucocorticoids by conversion active cortisol to inactive cortisone enzyme 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 present in the kidney. metabolites and are excreted urine as tetrahydrocortisol (5αTHF+5βTHF) tetrahydrocortisone (THE), respectively. Hypothesis: Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) essential hypertension have a functional defect their ability convert cortisone, thus leading activation...
Aims. 17-β-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 3 (17βHSD-3) is expressed exclusively in the testes where it converts Δ4 androstenedione (Δ4) to testosterone (T). Here, we report a patient with rare mutation at critical site HSD17B3 gene leading deficiency of 17β HSD-3 enzyme.Methods. We describe 3-year old healthy female consanguineous Lebanese descent, who presented endocrine service isolated mild clitoromegaly. Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG)...
### Adverse Event Our patient was 13 years and 2 months old, a white boy with type 1 diabetes diagnosed 5 before this adverse event (AE). He had no other significant medical history. His A1C 7.6% month the insulin infusion needle break event. The started on t-slim pump (Tandem Diabetes Care, San Diego, Calif.) year 6 days AE occurred. using contact Detach (Unomedical, Inc., Bridgewater, N.J.) set lispro insulin. features very fine, 29-gauge, 90° steel needle. With its additional adhesive...
The feasibility of "point-of-care" screening for ideal cardiovascular health was explored in a pediatric specialty clinic setting. Children and adolescents aged 9-18 years (n=91) with treated stabilized diseases were recruited at endocrinology clinic. A table-top device used to assay fingerstick samples non-HDL cholesterol (non-HDL-C), which divide participants into two groups based on the non-HDL-C threshold comparison remaining metrics between groups. significant number children had low...
Introduction: Spinal anaesthesia is a preferred choice for infraumbilical surgery. Various drugs have been added intrathecally to augment analgesia in the postoperative period. Morphine an opiate was among first be introduced. More recently alpha-2 agonist Clonidine. Aim: To compare Clonidine and as adjuncts bupivacaine spinal on quality of block, duration analgesia, haemodynamic changes complication. Materials Methods: In this randomised double blind controlled study, one hundred patients...
