Seventeen Leishmania stocks isolated from cutaneous lesions of Pakistani patients were studied by multi- locus enzyme electrophoresis and by polymerase chain reaction amplification and sequencing of the cytochrome b (Cyt b) gene. Eleven stocks that expressed nine zymodemes were assigned to L. (Leishmania) major. All of them were isolated from patients in the lowlands of Larkana district and Sibi city in Sindh and Balochistan provinces, respectively. The remaining six, distributed in two zymodemes (five and one), isolated from the highland of Quetta city, Balochistan, were identified as L. (L.) tropica. The same result at species level was obtained by the Cyt b sequencing for all the stocks examined.

Internal Medicine, Jinnah Sindh Medical University, Karachi, PAK 2. Internal Medicine, Chandka Medical College Hospital Larkana, Larkana, PAK 3. Family Medicine, Dr. Ruth Pfau Hospital, Karachi, PAK Corresponding author: Amber Rizwan, [email protected] Abstract Introduction Over the past few years, there have been drastic advancements in the management of type 1 and 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). Prevention of complications is a prime concern of all physicians dealing with DM. However, whether or not these interventions have helped in reducing the incidence of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) in patients with type 1 DM, is still an unanswered question. The aim of this study is to assess the clinical pattern of DKA, evaluate its outcomes, and study the predictors of outcome. Methods The study was conducted as a prospective, observational one in the department of medicine of a tertiary care hospital from July-December 2018. Patients of type 1 DM presenting in the emergency department with DKA were evaluated for their predisposing factors, clinical presentation, biochemical parameters, rate of mortality, and predictors of mortality. Data was processed through and analyzed using IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, version 22.0 (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY). Results The common clinical presentations include severe vomiting (32.2%), abdominal pain (27.9%), and depressed mental state (DMS) (26.8%). Infections (36.5%) and inadequate insulin dose (22.5%) were frequently seen as the predisposing factors.
