We evaluate the prognostic significance of chronic liver diseases followed by diabetes mellitus in 40 patients by Child class, immunoreactive insulinemia (IRI), C peptide (CP) and pancreolaury-test (PLT) at 5 years. Death and hepatic insufficiency prevalence were significantly higher in cirrhotic diabetics, and in those diabetics with a lower insulin secretion (IRI, CP). Insulin hyposecretion (lower IRI, CP) was found in cirrhotic with abnormal PLT (below 20%). The onset of diabetes mellitus in liver cirrhosis has a bad prognosis when it is caused by decreased insulin secretion produced by chronic pancreatitis or pancreatic insufficiency.

Lycopene is a tetraterpene compound belonging to carotenoids that are widely present in tomatoes and similar products. It is known as a powerful anti-oxidant and a non-provitamin A carotenoid. Lycopene has been found to effectively improve diabetes mellitus and its complications, such as cardiac complications, disorders caused by oxidative stress, and liver and neurological disorders.

Agonists which bind and stimulate multiple receptors have shown particular promise. However, off target effects, including nausea and diarrhoea, remain a complication of using these agents, and modified versions with optimized pharmacological profiles and/or biased signaling at the cognate receptors are increasingly sought.

Background: is a differentially expressed gene (DEG) between M1 and M2 macrophages. This study explained why it causes opposite effects in different circumstances.
Methods: Gene expression profiles of various cell subsets were compared by mining a public database.
Backgrounds And Aims: Type 2 diabetes and its complications are assumed to be major public health problems globally. Zinc is one of the elements that play a part in insulin secretion and signaling. Therefore, this study seeks the answer to the following question: "What are the effects of 220 mg zinc sulfate supplementation on the weight, blood pressure, and glycemic control of patients with Type 2 diabetes?".
