  • Effect of Oral Hypoglycaemic Agents on Glucose Tolerance in Pancreatic Diabetes
    Gut: first published as 10.1136/gut.13.4.285 on 1 April 1972. Downloaded from Gut, 1972, 13, 285-288 Effect of oral hypoglycaemic agents on glucose tolerance in pancreatic diabetes B. I. JOFFE, W. P. U. JACKSON, S. BANK, AND A. I. VINIK From the Department of Medicine, Witwatersrand University Medical School, Johannesburg, the Gastro- intestinal and Endocrine Research Units of Cape Town University Medical School, and the Chemical Pathology Department of Natal University, South Africa SUMMARY The short-term therapeutic effect of oral hypoglycaemic agents has been assessed in 12 patients with symptomatic diabetes secondary to chronic pancreatitis (pancreatic diabetes). In six patients who had moderate to severe carbohydrate intolerance, associated with severe insulino- paenia during arginine infusion, the potent sulphonylurea chlorpropamide produced no change in the fasting blood glucose level after two weeks of treatment. This contrasted with the significant reduction produced in a matched group of maturity-onset primary diabetics. The six patients with milder diabetes, and a greater (although still subnormal) insulin secretory capacity, showed an improvement in oral glucose tolerance during the first hour following glucose administration while on chlorpropamide. When the biguanide phenformin was substituted for chlorpropamide in five of these patients, a statistically insignificant improvement in glucose tolerance was observed during treatment. Applications of these findings to the practical management of pancreatic diabetes are briefly http://gut.bmj.com/ considered.

  • Effect of Exogenous Glucocorticoid on Osmotically Stimulated Antidiuretic
    European Journal of Endocrinology (2006) 155 845–848 ISSN 0804-4643 CLINICAL STUDY Effect of exogenous glucocorticoid on osmotically stimulated antidiuretic hormone secretion and on water reabsorption in man Volker Ba¨hr1, Norma Franzen1, Wolfgang Oelkers2, Andreas F H Pfeiffer1 and Sven Diederich1,2 1Department of Endocrinology, Diabetes and Nutrition, Charite-Universitatsmedizin Berlin, Campus Benjamin Franklin, Hindenburgdamm 30, 12200 Berlin, Germany and 2Endokrinologikum Berlin, Centre for Endocrine and Metabolic Diseases, Berlin, Germany (Correspondence should be addressed to V Ba¨hr; Email: [email protected]) Abstract Objective: Glucocorticoids exert tonic suppression of antidiuretic hormone (ADH) secretion. Hypocortisolism in secondary adrenocortical insufficiency can result in a clinical picture similar to the syndrome of inappropriate ADH secretion. On the other hand, in vitro and in vivo results provide evidence for ADH suppression in states of hypercortisolism. To test the hypothesis that ADH suppression is of relevance during glucocorticoid therapy, we investigated the influence of prednisolone on the osmotic stimulation of ADH. Design and methods: Seven healthy men were subjected to water deprivation tests with the measurement of plasma ADH (pADH) and osmolality (posmol) before and after glucocorticoid treatment (5 days 30 mg prednisolone per day). Results: Before glucocorticoid treatment, the volunteers showed a normal test with an adequate increase of pADH (basal 0.54G0.2 to 1.9G0.72 pg/ml (meanGS.D.)) in relation to posmol(basal 283.3G8.5 to 293.7G6 mosmol/kg). After prednisolone intake, pADH was attenuated (!0.4 pg/ml) in spite of an increase of posmol from 289.3G3.6 to 297.0G5.5 mosmol/kg.

  • A Review on Evolution in Triglyceride Determination
    Available online at www.derpharmachemica.com ISSN 0975-413X Der Pharma Chemica, 2018, 10(5): 84-88 CODEN (USA): PCHHAX (http://www.derpharmachemica.com/archive.html) Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) Inhibitors: New Target for Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) Review Swapna Vadlamani* Asst. proffesor, NIPER, Hyderabad, Andhra Pradesh, India ABSTRACT Introduction: Knocking out type2 diabetes by new insulin independent renal glucose transporters as targets, reducing the side effects related to high rise in glucose levels is a more efficient way to manage diabetes. Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors block reabsorption of glucose back into the blood and stimulate secretion in urine in a way controlling blood glucose levels. Areas discussed: We emphasize in this review an overview of type 2 diabetes. New insulin independent targets, SGLT family inhibitors and their mechanism of action are briefly discussed. Molecular modeling studies carried out for new analogues of SGLT2 were indicated and also about current marketed SGLT drugs their safety issues are briefly outlined. Conclusion: SGLT2 inhibitors are very promising drugs for near future, where insulin sensitization is a problem. A combination of drugs related to insulin dependent pathway and also independent pathway like SGLT2/SGLT1 drugs will be more effective in glycemic control with lesser side effects. Keywords: Type II Diabetes, SGLT2 inhibitors INTRODUCTION Present scenario of food habits and absolutely very less physical activity is becoming the major cause for obesity finally leading to diabetes. Diabetes is said to be a rich man disease and mostly occurs at the later age of 40, but now one in every 5 persons at early age diagnosed turned to be diabetic mainly because of lifestyle changes.

  • Type 2 Diabetes Treatment Recommendations Update
    abetes & Di M f e o t a l b a o Cornell, J Diabetes Metab 2014, 5:8 n l r i s u m o DOI: 10.4172/2155-6156.1000414 J Journal of Diabetes and Metabolism ISSN: 2155-6156 Review Article Open Access Type 2 Diabetes Treatment Recommendations Update: Appropriate Use of Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4 Inhibitors Susan Cornell* Midwestern University, Chicago College of Pharmacy, Downers Grove, IL, USA Abstract In this article, recommendations from the 2012 American Diabetes Association (ADA)/European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) position statement are discussed with an emphasis on the appropriate use of Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors in individuals with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). The 2012 ADA/EASD position statement emphasizes individualization of treatment, with glycated hemoglobin (A1C) targets being determined for each patient based on life expectancy, complications, disease duration, comorbidities, such as cardiovascular disease or cognitive impairment, and the risk of hypoglycemia and other adverse events. Patients’ attitudes and support systems should also be considered. Recommendations for pharmacotherapy are less prescriptive and should be based on a patient’s needs, preferences, and tolerances. In general, metformin is recommended as first- line therapy for most patients, although combination of 2 noninsulin agents or insulin alone should be considered in patients with baseline A1C ≥ 9.0%. Add-on therapy to metformin will likely be needed to achieve and maintain glycemic control as the disease progresses. It is important to avoid therapies that increase the risk of weight gain or and, especially in older patients, hypoglycemia. As discussed in this review, DPP-4 inhibitors are well tolerated and effectively lower A1C and improve β-cell function without increasing the risk of hypoglycemia and weight gain.
