Aim: The study was primarily aimed at investigating the association of Magnesium and Zinc levels in the serum of adult Non- obese and Obese type 2 diabetic patients, with particular reference to thyroid comorbidity.
Methods: 108 patients with T2DM of both genders (24 Non obese and 84 Obese) were enrolled from a tertiary health care unit in Puducherry. The cardio-metabolic risk factors were assessed through body mass index, Waist hip ratio, blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, lipid profile and glycated haemoglobin. Zinc and Magnesium were quantitated. Insulin resistance was by Homeostasis model assessment. Serum free T4, T3 and TSH were also measured.
Results: In non-obese type 2 diabetic group, Glycated haemoglobin had a strong positive correlation with free T4(r=0.784; p=0.003).TSH also depicted a positive association with HOMA-IR (r=0.924; p<0.001); whereas,T3 and Insulin had negative correlation with Magnesium (r=-0.599* and r=-0.620*; p 0.04 and 0.031). The levels of Zinc and Magnesium in the serum of obese diabetic patients had a positive correlation among them (r=0.565#; p<0.001). TAG/HDL ratio a measure of small dense LDL is positively correlated with LDL in both groups (r=0.881 and 0.912) with p value<0.001 for both.
Conclusion: Correlation among Glycemic control, Insulin resistance, Thyroid hormones, divalent cations and dyslipidemia depict differential characteristics in obese and non-obese type2 diabetes with Thyroid comorbidity.

Background: Atherosclerotic dyslipidemia is associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Although previous studies have demonstrated an association between the atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) and insulin resistance, there remains a scarcity of large cohort studies investigating the association between AIP and the long-term risk of T2D in the general population. This study aims to investigate the potential association between AIP and the long-term risk of T2D in individuals with normal fasting plasma glucose levels.

Background: Obesity is associated with varying degrees of metabolic dysfunction. In this study, we aimed to discover markers of the severity of metabolic impairment in men with obesity via a multiomics approach.
Methods: Thirty-two morbidly men with obesity who were candidates for Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery were prospectively followed.

Background: Gallstones, a common surgical condition globally, affect around 20% of patients. The development of gallstones is linked to abnormal cholesterol and bilirubin metabolism, reduced gallbladder function, insulin resistance, biliary infections, and genetic factors. In addition to these factors, research has shown that mucins play a role in gallstone formation.

Background: It seems that oxidative stress is involved in the occurrence and progression of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Considering the antioxidant features of Ellagic acid (EA), this study was designed to assess the effect of EA on some biochemical factors in patients with NAFLD.
Methods: In this clinical trial, 44 patients were selected based on including criteria and randomly received 180 mg of EA per day (n = 22) or placebo (n = 22) for 8 weeks.

Pediatric non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is emerging as a worldwide health concern with the potential to advance to cirrhosis and liver cancer. NAFLD can also directly contribute to heart problems through inflammation and insulin resistance, even in individuals without other risk factors. The pathological mechanisms of NAFLD are linked to functional differences of miRNAs in different biological environments.
