Self-Management in this presentation refers to those activities people undertake in an effort to promote health, prevent disease, limit illness, and restore well being. Several investigators contend that self-management be made a major component of many patient health-care strategy (Glasgow, et al., 2001; Wagner, et al., 2001). Currently, nearly 125 million Americans suffer from chronic debilitating illnesses (Anderson, 2000). These national figures clearly underscore the need to develop a multidimensional approach in regards to disease management. Accordingly, measures that incorporate the patient’s perspective in managing his or her health should be explored.
Diabetes mellitus is among those conditions suspected to be highly influenced by self-management activities (Sprangers, et. al., 2000). If benefits do indeed exist, they need to be fully evidenced. The investigation presented here sought to examine the role self management plays in the health outcomes of individuals living with diabetes.

All patients with type 2 diabetes must be screened for diabetic nephropathy at the time of diagnosis.
Patients with type 1 diabetes should be screened five years after diagnosis and at puberty. If the initial test reveals negative result then the test has to be repeated annually for both type 1 and type 2 diabetes.

Random urine samples should be used and the results of albumin measurement in spot collection may be expressed as urinary albumin concentration (mg/dL) or as urinary albumin to creatinine ratio (mg/g or mg/mmol).

The Effect of Demographic Data and Hemoglobin A 1c on Treatment Outcomes in P...asclepiuspdfs
Objective: Diabetes mellitus, the most common cause of non-traumatic foot amputations, is a life-threatening condition due to its high mortality and morbidity. In our study, we retrospectively evaluated our patients with diabetic foot syndrome in our clinic. Materials and Methods: The demographic data, duration of diabetes, Wagner classification, haemoglobin A 1c (HbA1c) levels, white blood cell, C-reactive protein sedimentation levels, hospital stay, and treatment results were evaluated retrospectively in 14 patients with diabetic foot between January 2017 and December 2018. Results: The mean age of the patients was 62.43 ± 7.7 years. Of the 14 patients, 3 were females and 11 were males. All 14 patients were type 2 diabetes mellitus. When diabetic foot Wagner classification was performed, 6 patients were evaluated as Wagner 2, five patients were Wagner 3, and three patients were evaluated as Wagner 4. Nine patients had complete amputation and 3 had vascular surgery. Conclusion: Although the level of HbA1c is below the target level, the risk of diabetic foot is increased when there is no adequate diabetes mellitus foot training. Inadequate diabetic patient education and hospitalization of patients after infection progress the amputation rate.
Objective: Diabetic nephropathy is one of the most serious complications of diabetes mellitus. It develops in approximately one-third of diabetic patients, years after the onset of metabolic abnormalities.
Study Design: The biopsy specimens were evaluated with the focus on light microscopy. The aim of our study was to reveal differences in the details and the frequency of occurrence of individual histomorphological changes in diabetic nephropathy and other glomerulonephritides.
Results: Diabetic nephropathy accounted for 14 out of 82 analyzed biopsies. Isolated thickening of the glomerular basement membrane was not present in any case, but along with some degree of mesangial expansion, hypercellularity or glomerulosclerosis was seen in 12 out of 14 findings of diabetic nephropathy. In other glomerular diseases, mesangial changes, but without glomerular basement membrane thickening, were the most frequent findings. In addition to glomerular lesions, some of the tubular, interstitial, and vascular changes were seen in 13 out of 14 patients with diabetic nephropathy. In other glomerulonephritides the combination of all these changes was a rare finding.
Conclusion: There are cases where immunofluorescence and electron microscopy cannot be performed or their results are not helpful. In such cases we must rely on light microscopic histomorphological changes.

ABSTRACT
Background: Diabetes mellitus is one of the significant risk factors for adverse outcomes after coronary artery bypass surgery. The glycosylated haemoglobin i.e. HbA1c is a reliable diagnostic test to know the long-term glycemic status. The objective of the study is to investigate the implication of preoperative HbA1c level on short term outcomes after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).
Method: Total 218 patients were studied, and the data were collected retrospectively. Patients are distributed into group 1 with HbA1c≤7 (good glycemic control) and group 2 with HbA1c>7 (poor glycemic control). The parameters studied for short term outcomes were revision due to bleeding, duration of mechanical ventilation, cerebrovascular accident (CVA), atrial fibrillation (AF), renal failure requiring dialysis, infective complications like sternal and leg wound infection, mediastinitis, pneumonia, urinary tract infection (UTI), sepsis; length of ICU stay and in-hospital mortality.
Result: In comparison to group 1, patients of group 2 showed statistically significant more morbidity in view of short-term outcomes in this study.
Conclusion: HbA1c>7 is associated with statistically significant adverse short-term outcomes after CABG.

Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.

Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:

Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

2. We evaluated the prevalence of DR in 295 type 2
diabetic patients admitted in our Department for DF
from 2008 until 2011. All patients were examined
with indirect and direct retinoscopy and two non-

Of these 228 (77.3%) underwent to lower extremity
transluminal angioplasty for critical limb ischaemia
and PAD severity was graded according to
Classification of Joint Vascular Society Council (JVSC).
Characteristics of the

Conclusions
ü We observed a high prevalence of DR in
type 2 diabetic patients with foot
complications (70% of these patients have
some degree of DR).
ü Furthermore, while no correlation was found
between JVSC score and age, duration of
diabetes or HbA1c respectively, in our
patients the severity of diabetic retinopathy
correlated with the severity of peripheral
arterial disease (p<0.05 r=0,65).
