Introduction Diabetic neuropathy (DN) is a prevalent complication of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) with major impact on the health affected patient. We hypothesized that mediated by dysfunctionalities associated DN’s three components: sensitive (lack motion sensory), motor (impairments in movement coordination) and autonomic (the presence postural hypotension), DN may impair balance patients. Our study’s main aim to evaluate possible association between severity both impairment risk falls...
The PREDATORR (PREvalence of DiAbeTes mellitus, prediabetes, overweight, Obesity, dyslipidemia, hyperuricemia and chronic kidney disease in Romania) study is the first national analyzing prevalence diabetes mellitus (DM) their association with cardiometabolic, sociodemographic, lifestyle risk factors Romanian population aged 20-79 years.This was an epidemiological a stratified, cross-sectional, cluster random sampling design. Sociodemographic, lifestyle, anamnestic data were collected...
Background: Dementia and cognitive dysfunction have many causes. There is strong evidence that diabetes mellitus (DM) increases the risk of impairment dementia. Optimal glycemic control, identification diabetic factors, prophylactic approach are essential in prevention complications.

The aims our study were to assess whether an independent factor for occurrence diabetic neuropathy (DN), evaluate relationship between presence severity...
Purpose: Patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) are more susceptible to viral and bacterial infections, facing a severe prognosis higher mortality rates. The study's main aim was evaluate the survival rates of patients type 2 (T2DM) SARS-CoV-2 virus infection alongside factors influencing prognosis. Methods: present study included 186 T2DM admitted COVID-19 Department "Pius Brînzeu" Emergency Clinical County University Hospital between November 2020 March 2021. had investigations performed...
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), obesity, hyperlipidemia, and hypertension are considered risk factors for developing non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). This study aims to assess steatosis fibrosis severity in a cohort of T2DM patients, using vibration controlled transient elastography (VCTE) attenuation parameter (CAP).We performed prospective which, each patient, we aimed 10 valid CAP stiffness measurements (LSM). To discriminate between stages, used the following VCTE cut-offs: F...
Background: Over one-third of patients living with diabetes will develop ocular disease during their lifetime. The present study analyzes the association between metabolic and anthropometric markers, associated comorbidities, intraocular pressure (IOP) in type 2 mellitus (DM). Methods: retrospective included 87 adult DM who underwent routine eye examinations blood/urine tests. Results: 67.9% had an IOP > 14.5 mmHg only 41.3% HbA1c < 7%. In a multivariate regression analysis, mean was...
: Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that prevents cardiovascular diseases and diabetes mellitus (DM). The present research aimed to study the impact of 25-hydroxyvitamin (25(OH)D) level on health status patients with type 2 DM (T2DM) hospitalized in "Pius Brînzeu" Emergency Clinical County University Hospital Timisoara, Romania.
We report an outbreak of urinary tract infections (UTIs) caused by Myroides odoratimimus, which occurred in the largest clinical hospital western Romania.From June to August 2017, four strains M. odoratimimus were isolated from urine samples patients hospitalized urology, diabetes, and surgery departments. Hospital records all whose cultures positive for reviewed retrospectively. also cases reported literature.All UTIs, except one, hospital-acquired infections. All with UTIs...
Background End stage renal disease (ESRD) patients on replacement therapy (RRT) with diabetes mellitus (DM) have a higher mortality rate and an increase prevalence of vitamin D deficiency compared to those without DM. It is still debated if risk factor or prognostic marker for in these patients. This study investigated the its impact all-cause HD Methods Our prospective non-interventional cohort included 600 hemodialysis (HD) (median aged 56, interquartile range (19) years, 332 (55.3%)...
Purpose: To evaluate the prevalence of depression and its impact on quality diabetes-related self-care activities in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes. Patients methods: In this cross-sectional study, 184 diabetes were enrolled. Depression was evaluated using Patient Health Questionnaire-9 while assessed Summary Diabetes-Related Self Care Activities Questionnaire. Results: our study group, 53.3% had moderate depression, 17.9% severe 28.8% no symptoms. Patient’s age ( P =0.024), presence...
To assess the prevalence of metabolic syndrome and evaluate proinflammatory status in patients with type 1 diabetes, to analyse relationship between inflammation, control insulin resistance these patients.Patients diabetes were stratified according presence or absence syndrome. Serum adiponectin, leptin, tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-6 high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) quantified.The was 28.6% (22/77). Patients had lower adiponectin concentrations higher TNF-α,...

Introduction Acute kidney injury (AKI) increases the risk of death in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients. Intravenous thrombolytic therapy (iv. rt-PA) seems to be most effective treatment for AIS The effects AKI on iv. rt-PA treated cases is less studied. Our paper addresses this issue. Methods 45 consecutive patients with (median age = 64 years; 29 male) and 59 sex matched controls not eligible have been enrolled our study. Subjects were followed-up until hospital release or follow up...

Background and Objectives: Insulin resistance (IR) is a key factor involved in the development of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Besides its role pathogenesis T2D, insulin associated with impairment glycemic control, reduced achievement targets, increases cardiovascular risk complications, being thus negative prognosis factor. Sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) are therapies for T2D which demonstrated, besides improvements biomarkers traditionally IR inflammation. This study aimed...
