Introduction Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus is a metabolic syndrome associated with hyperglycemia due to defect in secretion or action of insulin or both. Long term hyperglycemia leads to complications of microvasculature involving the eyes, kidneys and nerves.
Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is the commonest
It has been reported that nearly half of the patients who are hospitalized for Covid-19 pneumonia have on admission old age or comorbidities.
In particular, hypertension was present in 30% of the cases, diabetes in 19%, coronary heart disease in 8% and chronic obstructive lung disease in 3% of the
Diabetes mellitus type 2 (T2DM) is the most common metabolic disease and its prevalence is rapidly increasing. T2DM is a chronic disease that affects over 451 million people in the world and this number is expected to increase over the years and it is estimated that in 2045 there will be in the

Preeclampsia is a multisystem disorder that complicates 3-5% of pregnancies and remains a major cause of maternal, fetal, and neonatal morbidity and mortality.(1)
Preeclampsia is characterized by the development of new onset hypertension (HTN) and the establishment of proteinuria. Other signs and
Our project is based on implementation of a telemonitoring and case management BP program for remote dwellers with diabetes and CKD in remote regions of Alberta. Our aim is to determine the impact of the intervention on BP control and other CKD risk factors, achievement of guideline-concordant
Patient population and setting. We will identify all patients undergoing their first PD catheter insertion during the study period, at 20 participating centers in Canada and the USA (see Appendix 1). A total of 800 cases have been captured to date during our pilot study and an additional 1,520 cases
Background
End-stage renal disease:
End-stage renal disease is the eighteenth cause of deaths worldwide. Despite fairly stable incidences, the prevalence of End-stage renal disease on renal replacement therapy has doubled from 1990 to 2010 and the toll is expected to rise further in the coming
Introduction. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) are prioritized as a second-line therapy for the treatment of type 2 diabetes (T2D), especially in patients with a history of cardiovascular disease (CVD) or when there is a need to avoid weight gain and hypoglycemia. Randomized
Decision to perform this observational study was made due to the lack of information on the local incidence and risk factors for the development of immediate postoperative delirium (IPD).
A literature review was done to study the already implicated perioperative causative factors as well as other
200 children aged 2-18 years that will be referred to the Sleep Disorders Center for overnight polysomnography due to suspected sleep disordered breathing or PLMD will be recruited to the study during their first visit in the sleep clinic. During that study, an informed consent will be completed by
1.2 Definitions: A. Hypoglycemia: a blood glucose level of 70 mg/dL or lower, regardless of symptoms B. Hypoalbuminemia: Albumin level below 3.5 g/dL upon admission to the hospital C. Adequate nutritional consumption: the consumption of at least half of the oral nutritional supplements D. Target
This is a pilot study, PROBE design (prospective randomized open label blinded endpoints study), that will include 100 patients.
Patients will be recruited during their hospitalization in the cardiology department of Ichilov- Tel-Aviv Sourasky Medical Center.
It will include patients with known or
BACKGROUND AND SIGNIFICANCE:
International health agencies and chronic disease associations have called for reductions in free/added sugars to ≤5-10% of energy to address the growing epidemics of obesity and diabetes. Attention has focused especially on the reduction of major source of free sugars,
