Aim: To assess the main metabolic determinants of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in adult patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D).
Methods: 115 patients with T1D were divided into 4 groups according to NAFLD grade. NAFLD was diagnosed via transient elastography when CAP > 233 dB/m.
Purpose: The purpose of the present study was to compare the basic glycemic control parameters-HbA1c, CV%, and hypoglycemia, as well as quality of life and depression score in patients with type 1 diabetes using continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) versus multiple daily injections (MDI).
Methods: 324 adult patients with type 1 diabetes-146 using CSII and 178 on MDI, were enrolled in this cross-sectional study. HbA1c was assessed in whole blood by immuno-turbidimetric NGSP certified method.
Aims: The putative protective role of esRAGE for cardiac autonomic function (CAF) remains unclear. To address this question, the present study has assessed the relationship of serum AGEs, sRAGE and esRAGE, and tissue AGEs with CAF in a high-risk population without diabetes.
Material And Methods: This study enrolled 48 subjects of mean age 52.
The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy of procalcitonin (PCT) and high-sensitive C-reactive protein (hsCRP) as diagnostic biomarkers in patients with diabetes and mild-to-moderate diabetic foot infections. A total of 119 patients (102 with type 2 diabetes and 17 with type 1 diabetes), of mean age 60.29 ± 10.

Material And Methods: 235 adults with T1D, divided into three groups according to diabetes duration, were recruited in this cross-sectional study from May 2017 till December 2018. Anthropometric parameters and blood pressure were measured.
