Introduction: Diabetes mellitus (DM) afflicts at least 5 million people in Nigeria, with more than 80% having type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Microvascular complications increase both morbidity and mortality inpatients T2DM. The aims of this study were to report the burden various microvascular T2DM identify factors associated these patients attending outpatients' clinic.Methods: Ninety (90) who have attended clinic for 3 months recruited study. Detailed history, physical examination biochemical...
Background . Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a major risk factor for nonhealing foot ulcers in people with diabetes. A number of traditional factors have been reported to be associated PAD; however, there may need consider nontraditional especially some vulnerable populations. This study determined the prevalence and PAD diabetics. Methods One hundred fifty type 2 diabetics an equal age- sex-matched apparently healthy controls were studied. Assessment was made using history, palpation...
Abstract Background Type 2 diabetes mellitus has reached epidemic proportions worldwide and improved detection techniques biomarkers are urgently needed across the spectrum of initiation progression. Inflammatory play a role in development condition blood is gold standard body fluid for diagnosis mellitus. Serum glycated haemoglobin widely used marker chronic hyperglycemia, it currently to diagnose type biomarker adequacy management. However, saliva offers an alternative serum as biological...
This study investigated the relationships among exercise capacity (EC), dynamic balance (DB), and gait characteristics (GCs) of patients with type-2 diabetes (T2D) healthy controls (HCs). observational controlled involved 125 T2D receiving treatment at a Nigerian university teaching hospital apparently patientsâ relatives staff recruited as controls. EC maximum oxygen consumption (VO2max) was estimated following 6-min walk test. DB GC were assessed using Time Up to Go Test an accelerometer...
Background. The frequency of erectile dysfunction (ED) complicating diabetes mellitus (DM) is reportedly high. However, its risk factors have not been well studied. Methods. This was a cross-sectional study 160 male type 2 DM adults, aged 30–70 years, attending tertiary healthcare clinic. Demographic and relevant clinical information documented. Erectile function assessed using an abridged version the International Index Function (IIEF-5). All subjects were evaluated for central obesity,...
Abstract Aims Chloroquine induces a severe generalized pruritus, in predisposed Black African patients, during treatment of malaria fever, and also some Caucasian patients treated for rheumatological diseases. We have previously shown that chloroquine may release endogenous opioids and/or interact with µ‐opiate receptors rats, both histamine parasite blood density, contribute to the itching severity fever humans. The aim our present study was assess compare antipruritic efficacy receptor...
BACKGROUNDNeuropathy is a common complication of diabetes mellitus resulting from direct damage by hyperglycemia to the nerves and/or ischemia microvascular injury endoneurial vessels which supply nerves.Median nerve one peripheral commonly affected in diabetic neuropathy.The median size has been studied non-Nigerian populations.In attempt contribute existing literature, study Nigerian population needed. AIMTo evaluate cross-sectional area (CSA) using B-mode ultrasonography (USS) and...
Sex specific differences appear particularly relevant in the management of type 2 DM.We determined gender cardio-metabolic risk, microvascular and macrovascular complications patients with diabetes.Four hundred diabetes patients, males females, matched for age disease duration were recruited from clinic. Relevant clinical laboratory information obtained or performed.190(47.5%) male 210 (52.5%) female respectively. The mean study population was 60.6 + 9.93 years. Women had higher prevalence...

To investigate the prevalence and associates of asymptomatic bacteriuria (ASB) in a sample Nigerian diabetic patients.Cross-sectional descriptive analytic study.The Wesley Guild Hospital Ife State Hospital, both units Obafemi Awolowo University Teaching Hospitals Complex, Ile-Ife, Nigeria.One hundred thirty five patients 57 non-diabetic as controls.Demographic parameters participants were recorded. Significant was determined for each mid-stream urine specimen obtained from all subjects....
The prevalence of type 2 diabetes (T2DM) is increasing worldwide and a disproportionate burden this increase borne by developing economies. It yet to be established whether dietary strategies interventions which have been successful in the control T2DM Western nations will achieve same effect African setting. We studied formulated high caloric fibre diet on glycemic lipid profile tablet treated Nigerian diabetics. assigned 52 diabetics (26 men, 26 women) either an intervention (35) or group...
