Self monitoring of blood glucose helps achieve glycemic goals. Glucometers must be accurate. Many variables affect levels. Factors are analytical (intrinsic to glucometer and strips) pre related patients. Analytical depend on factors like shelf life, amount enzymatic reactions. Preanalytical include pH blood, hypoxia, hypotension, hematocrit etc. CGMS has the potential revolutionise diabetes care but accuracy needs proven beyond doubt before replacing current devices.
Background: Evidence suggests a role of glycemic variability in intensive care unit (ICU) mortality. Objective: To assess effect and ICU/in-hospital Design: Prospective, observational study. Setting: A 20-bedded medical/surgical ICU tertiary hospital. Patients: Critically ill patients requiring life-support measures admitted to the between November 1, 2015 December 30, 2016 with hyperglycemia [random blood sugar (RBS) ≥200 mg%] sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) scores ≤9.

The pituitary develops as a result of complex, intricate, and precise neuro-embryological events in the sixth to eighth weeks gestation. Some ectopic cell rests can become adenomatous. Rarely, these clivus be site formation adenoma. Our patient, 35-year-old parous woman, was being treated for acromegaly, imaging studies revealed clival mass lesion. Trans-sphenoidal excision done immunohistochemistry tumor growth hormone-secreting tumor.
Vitamin D (25OHD) and parathyroid hormone (PTH) are associated with dysglycemia, we investigated them in gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM).In this cross-sectional, observational study, included 75 pregnant women between 24 28 weeks of gestation. A fasting venous sample was collected for plasma glucose (FPG), insulin, PTH 25OHD. Glucose insulin samples were hourly after g load 2 h. Insulin sensitivity estimated by the Matsuda index (MI) beta cell function secretion (ISSI-2). The subjects...
