  • Effects of Sulbutiamine on Diabetic Polyneuropathy: an Open Randomised Controlled Study in Type 2 Diabetics
    Malaysian Journal of Medical Sciences, Vol. 9, No. 1, January 2002 (21-27) ORIGINAL ARTICLE EFFECTS OF SULBUTIAMINE ON DIABETIC POLYNEUROPATHY: AN OPEN RANDOMISED CONTROLLED STUDY IN TYPE 2 DIABETICS K.K. Kiew, W.B. Wan Mohamad, A. Ridzuan & M. Mafauzy Department of Medicine, School of Medical Sciences, Universiti Sains Malaysia 16150 Kubang Kerian, Kelantan, Malaysia Thirty patients with diabetic polyneuropathy were recruited from the diabetic clinic in Hospital Universiti Sains Malaysia from 1996 to 1998. They were randomly assigned either sulbutiamine (Arcalion®) (15 patients) or no treatment (control group; 15 patients). Glycaemic control was assessed by blood glucose and HbA1. Severity of neuropathy was assessed by symptom and sign score, and electrophysiological parameters (nerve conduction velocity and compound muscle action potential) at entry to the study and after 6 weeks. There were improvements in the electrophysiological parameters in the treatment group when compared to the controls with significant improvement in the median nerve conduction velocity (p<0.001), median compound muscle action potential (p<0.001), peroneal nerve conduction velocity (p<0.001), and peroneal compound muscle action potential (p<0.001). No significant improvement in symptom and sign scores were noted between the groups but a significant improvement compared to base line was noted for the sulbutiamine treated group. (p< 0.05). The glycaemic control in both groups was not significantly different at base line and was stable throughout the study. Sulbutiamine objectively improved peripheral nerve function in diabetic polyneuropathy although the symptom score did not improve, possibly due to the short duration of the study. Key words : diabetic polyneuropathy, sulbutiamine, NCV, CMAP Submitted-22.5.2000, Revised-21.8.2001, Accepted-15.9.2001 Introduction (13-16) have been investigated without any definite positive findings.

  • Basic and Clinical Role of Vitamins in Epilepsy
    Journal of Research in Applied and Basic Medical Sciences 2020; 6(2):104-114 Basic and clinical role of vitamins in epilepsy Raha Zalkhani*1, AhmadAli Moazedi2,3 1 PhD of physiology, Department of Biology, Farhangian University, Tehran, Iran 2 Professor of physiology, PhD, Department of Biology, Faculty of science, Shahid Chamran University of Ahvaz, Ahvaz, Iran 3 Stem cell and Transgenic Technology Research Center, Shahid Chamran University of Ahvaz, Ahvaz, Iran *Corresponding authors: Raha Zalkhani, Address: Department of Biology, Farhangian University, Tehran, Iran, Email:[email protected], Tel: +982187751000 Abstract Background & Aims: Epilepsy is a brain disorder which affects about 50 million people worldwide. Good diet is an essential measure to controlling seizure attacks. Since some combination therapy can reduce epileptogenesis, therefore this review summarizes the available evidences about the application of vitamins in animal models and humans for understanding what specific combinations of antiepileptic drugs and vitamins are likely to be effective for epilepsy therapy. Material and methods: In this review, electronic databases including PubMed and Google Scholar were searched for monotherapy and polytherapy by vitamins. Results: Administration of vit A inhibits development of seizures and lethality in animal models. Also vitamins B1, B6 and B12 pre- treatment might lead to a protective effect against degenerative cellular in mice. In addition use of low dose of sodium valproate with vitamins C or E increase the anticonvulsant activity of the drug in mice. Moreover, Vitamin D enhances antiepileptic effects of lamotrigine, phenytoin and valproate in animal's models. Vitamin E has an anticonvulsant effect in ferrous chloride seizures, hyperbaric Downloaded from ijrabms.umsu.ac.ir at 21:35 +0330 on Saturday October 2nd 2021 oxygen seizures as well as penicillin-induced seizures in contrast kindling, maximal electroshock and kainite models.

This article is published with open access at Springerlink.com Abstract Open-angle glaucoma (OAG) is the commonest available and who did not have OAG at baseline were inclu- cause of irreversible blindness worldwide. Apart from an ded. The ophthalmic examinations comprised measurements increased intraocular pressure (IOP), oxidative stress and an of the IOP and perimetry; dietary intake of nutrients was impaired ocular blood flow are supposed to contribute to assessed by validated questionnaires and adjusted for energy OAG. The aim of this study was to determine whether the intake. Cox proportional hazard regression analysis was dietary intake of nutrients that either have anti-oxidative applied to calculate hazard ratios of associations between the properties (carotenoids, vitamins, and flavonoids) or influence baseline intake of nutrients and incident OAG, adjusted for the blood flow (omega fatty acids and magnesium) is associ- age, gender, IOP, IOP-lowering treatment, and body mass ated with incident OAG. We investigated this in a prospective index. During an average follow-up of 9.7 years, 91 partici- population-based cohort, the Rotterdam Study. A total of 3502 pants (2.6%) developed OAG. The hazard ratio for retinol participants aged 55 years and older for whom dietary data at equivalents (highest versus lowest tertile) was 0.45 (95% baseline and ophthalmic data at baseline and follow-up were confidence interval 0.23–0.90), for vitamin B1 0.50 (0.25–0.98), and for magnesium 2.25 (1.16–4.38).
