High risk of macrovascular complications in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is caused by insulin resistance and atherogenic dyslipidemia that may be genetically determined. The aim of this study was to assess the association of polymorphic genetic variants APOA5 (S19W/rs3135506), CETP (Taq1B/rs708272), PON1 (Q192R /rs662) and PPARG (Pro12Ala /rs1801282) with T2DM and macrovascular complications in patients with T2DM resident in Northwestern Russia. We examined 386 patients with T2DM and 199 healthy controls. Genotyping was performed by polymerase chain reaction followed by restriction analysis. The study revealed the protective role of allele 12Ala of PPARG gene against T2DM development (odds ratio [OR]=0.58; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.39-0.85). B1B1 genotype of CETP was associated with increased risk of stroke in T2DM patients (OR=1.85; 95%CI1.07-3.21). RR genotype of PON1 was associated with increased risk of T2DM with stroke (OR=2.98; 95%CI1.01-8.84). According to study results Pro12Ala (rs1801282) variant of PPARG affected the risk of T2DM; polymorphic variants of CETP (Taq1B/rs708272) and PON1 (Q192R/rs662) contributed to the risk of macrovascular complications of T2DM.

Background: This review article describes the chronic complications of diabetes mellitus (DM). The chronic complications of DM are diverse, often progressive and difficult to manage or reverse.
Objective: The aim of this review is to highlight the current concepts in the pathogenic mechanisms of the chronic complications of diabetes mellitus, with a view to educate doctors and specialists on the management of these problems.

Background: Patients with type 1 diabetes (DM1), even in the setting of adequate glycaemic control, have an excess risk for developing cardiovascular disease. Residual insulin secretion (RIS), measured by detectable C-peptide levels in patients with DM1, might protect against diabetes-related complications. This study aimed to examine the relationship between residual insulin secretion and prognostic markers of cardiovascular complications in patients with DM1.

Unlabelled: Histomorphometric measurements of the wall thickness and internal diameter of the macrovessels of the chorionic villi of placentas from pregnancies complicated by preeclampsia or fetal growth restriction in comparison with normotensive pregnancy.
Methods: The research included placentas from singleton pregnancies complicated by preeclampsia and/or fetal growth restriction, women delivered in medical institutions in Karaganda city (Kazakhstan). Placentas were divided into three groups: PE ( = 59), isolated FGR ( = 24), and PE with FGR ( = 41).

Background: Diabetes, a chronic metabolic disorder with microvascular and macrovascular complications. Metabolites of hyperglycemia mediates endothelial injury resulting in cascade of atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis sets up plaque in vessel wall and obliterates the vascular lumen which results in stroke, myocardial infarction, and peripheral vascular disease.

The aim of the current research was to investigate the association between plasma endocan levels and metabolic control parameters, as well as to evaluate its predictive value for clinical complications in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DMT2). A total of 100 DMT2 patients participated in this prospective observational study. Plasma endocan levels were significantly elevated in DMT2 patients with HbA1c > 7% (1.
