Background: Craniofacial mucormycosis is a highly lethal infectious disease. This study aims to assess and analyze multiple variables, including clinical, socioeconomic, and biochemical markers, to identify and examine risk factors for mortality associated with this mycotic infection.
Material And Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 38 patients who sought medical attention at the Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery Division of a tertiary-level hospital in Monterrey, Mexico.
Falsely Elevated HbA1c Levels in a Patient with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Multiple Beta Globulin Gene Mutations.

We present a patient with type 2 diabetes mellitus and a variant hemoglobin whose HbA1c levels were falsely elevated regardless of the measurement method [high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), enzymatic, and immuno-assay] used. The causes of the falsely high HbA1c levels in this patient were investigated. The patient was a 73-year-old man with frequent hypoglycemia on self-monitoring of blood glucose, whose HbA1c level when measured by HPLC (standard mode) and immunoassay was substantially higher than that predicted by continuous blood glucose monitoring or from the patient's glycated albumin level.

Introduction: In this study, we assessed whether the ratio of glucose management index (GMI) to glycated albumin (GA) was linked to microvascular complications in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) who also possessed a shortened erythrocyte lifespan.
Methods: This study encompassed individuals from the Tianjin Diabetic Retinopathy Screening Cohort who completed continuous glucose monitoring and had an erythrocyte lifespan of under 90 days. Differences in GMI/GA were compared between the T2DM patients with or without microvascular complications, including diabetic kidney disease (DKD) and diabetic retinopathy (DR).
Quantifying glucose uptake at the single cell level with confocal microscopy reveals significant variability within and across individuals.

Measurement of glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) in human red blood cells plays a critical role in the diagnosis and treatment of diabetes mellitus. However, recent studies have suggested large variation in the relationship between average glucose levels and HbA1c, creating the need to understand glucose variability at the cellular level. Here, we devised a fluorescence-based method to quantitatively observe GLUT1-mediated intracellular glucose analog tracer uptake in individual RBCs utilizing microfluidics and confocal microscopy.

To investigate the association between serum ferritin levels, erythrocyte parameters, and the risk of developing type 2 diabetes mellitus. A total of 11 408 subjects aged 40 to 70 years who underwent physical examinations at a hospital in Qingdao from 2014 to 2015 were enrolled in the study. Data were collected through questionnaires, physical examinations, and assessments of blood biochemical indices, serum ferritin, and related erythrocyte parameters.
