Blood Glucose Levels
The main source of energy for the body is glucose. Its low blood concentrations can cause seizures, loss of consciousness and death. Long lasting high glucose levels can cause blindness, renal failure, cardiac and peripheral vascular disease, and neuropathy. Blood glucose concentrations need to be maintained within narrow limits. The process of maintaining blood glucose at a steady state is called glucose homeostasis. This is achieved through a balance of the rate of consumption of dietary carbohydrates, utilization of glucose by peripheral tissues, and the loss of glucose through the kidney tubule. The liver and kidney also play a role in glucose homeostasis. This book aims to provide an overview of blood glucose levels in health and diseases
PENGARUH KADAR GLUKOSA DARAH SEWAKTU TERHADAP KELUARAN NEUROLOGIK PADA PENDERITA STROKE ISKEMIK FASE AKUT NONDIABETIK
Background : An increasing of blood glucose levels is presumed to aggravate the neurological outcome of ischemic stroke patients. The research about association between increased blood glucose levels on nondiabetic patients with ischemic stroke and the neurological outcome measured by NIHSS is still small.
Objective : To determine the effect of blood glucose levels on neurological outcome in nondiabetic patients with acute ischemic stroke.
Methods : a cohort study with 32 nondiabetic patients with acute ischemic stroke who underwent treatment at Dr. Kariadi Hospital. The first blood glucose was drawn at 48 hours and the second at 72 hours after the onset of ischemic stroke. The neurological examination measured by NIHSS scale at 48 hours, 72 hours, and day 7 after the onset of ischemic stroke. The NIHSS score differences between 48 hours, 72 hours and day 7 were analyzed by Friedman test and Wilcoxon Post Hoc test. The correlation between blood glucose levels at 48 hours and 72 hours after the onset of ischemic stroke and neurological outcome were analyzed by Spearman correlation test.
Results : There were differences in the mean NIHSS score at 48 hours, 72 hours, and day 7 with p value <0,0001. The Spearman correlation test between blood glucose levels at 48 hours and the patients neurological outcome at day 7 showed p value = 0,386.
Conclusion : There is no correlation between blood glucose levels and the neurological outcome of the nondiabetic patients with acute ischemic strok
Stress, Nutritional Status and Blood Glucose Levels Among Patients with Diabetes Mellitus Type 2
Prevalence of diabetes mellitus (DM) was increased significantly. Stress increased cortisol could increase blood glucose levels while obesity could increase insulin resistance. Objective of this study was to examine correlation of stress and nutritional status with blood glucose levels in patients with DM type 2. Design study was cross sectional using 120 samples from patients with DM type 2 at Polyclinic of Internal Disease Dr. Moewardi Hospital Surakarta during April-May 2018. Variables in this study were stress with perceived stress scale 10 items (PSS-10), nutritional status with body mass index (BMI) and blood glucose levels with fasting blood glucose (FBG) and post-prandial blood glucose (PPBG) examination. The results showed that mean of FBG was 152.9±63.66 mg/dL and PPBG was 213.96±70.17 mg/dL. There was no significant correlation between stress and blood glucose levels, by FBG (p=0.389) and PPBG (p=0.202). However, there was significant correlation between nutritional status and PPBG (p=0.016), but FBG was not significant (p=0.209). In conclusion, there was significant correlation between nutritional status and PPBG in patients with DM type 2, but FBG was not significant. However, there was no significant correlation between stress and blood glucose levels in patients with DM type 2
Effect of cinnamon supplementation on blood glucose and lipid levels in type2 diabetic patients
This study was planned to investigate the effects of supplementation of cinnamon on fasting blood glucose levels and lipid profiles among type2 diabetic patients. 60 subjects with type 2 diabetes from both sexes (30 males and 30 females) were allocated to the intervention and control groups (30 individuals per group). The doses of 1.5 g of cinnamon were equally administered orally in the form of cinnamon powder into 500 mg per capsule with breakfast, lunch, and dinner for 60 days. Control group received capsules of containing placebo. Blood samples were obtained on the beginning day of the experiment and at the end of 60 days. The fasting blood glucose levels and lipid profiles including total cholesterol, LDL-C, HDL-C and triglycerides of types 2 subjects were measured. Fasting blood glucose levels and lipid profiles in intervention group were significantly lower than control group (p<0.05). The average of fasting blood glucose levels, total cholesterol, cholesterol LDL and triglyceride levels were decreased after consumption of cinnamon powder, significantly(p<0.05). We observed no significant changes in fasting blood glucose levels and lipid profiles after consumption of placebo in control group. Conclusion: This study showed that consumption of cinnamon supplementation may be useful in control and decreasing of fasting blood glucose levels and lipid profiles among type 2 diabetes individuals
The glycaemic effects of single doses of Panax ginseng in young healthy volunteers
The results of two acute placebo-controlled, double-blind cross-over studies assessing the effect of Panax ginseng (G115) on blood glucose levels are reported. In study 1, thirty participants received three treatments: placebo; 200 mg G115; 400 mg G115. In study 2, twenty-seven participants received four treatments: placebo (0 mg ginseng and 30 mg saccharin); ginseng (200 mg ginseng and 30 mg saccharin); placebo–glucose (0 mg ginseng and 25 g oral glucose); ginseng–glucose (200 mg ginseng and 25 g oral glucose). Blood glucose levels were measured at baseline (at 09.00 hours after an overnight fast) and then 60, 90 (study 1 only) and 120 min post-dose. Both studies demonstrated that G115 alone significantly lowers fasting blood glucose levels. Conversely, in study 2 there was a significant drink × ginseng interaction suggesting opposing glycaemic effects of ginseng under fasting and raised blood glucose conditions. These data have implications for the use of ginseng in individuals with poor gluco-regulation
Predicting Blood Glucose with an LSTM and Bi-LSTM Based Deep Neural Network
A deep learning network was used to predict future blood glucose levels, as
this can permit diabetes patients to take action before imminent hyperglycaemia
and hypoglycaemia. A sequential model with one long-short-term memory (LSTM)
layer, one bidirectional LSTM layer and several fully connected layers was used
to predict blood glucose levels for different prediction horizons. The method
was trained and tested on 26 datasets from 20 real patients. The proposed
network outperforms the baseline methods in terms of all evaluation criteria.Comment: 5 pages, submitted to 2018 14th Symposium on Neural Networks and

Teaching Casual Random Blood Glucose Screening to Second-Year Dental Students
In our project, archived casual random blood glucose levels of second-year dental students who were taught the mechanics of self-testing were retrieved. Material data were analyzed by calculating means, medians, standard deviations, and ranges for 161 dental students screened by this casual and random self-monitoring of blood glucose levels as described by the American Diabetes Association’s 2008 Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes. Three types of data were assessed in this study. The first was the casual blood glucose levels of second-year dental students. The second was the data retrieved from student questionnaires regarding the value of teaching casual random blood glucose screening. The third was the U.S. dental schools’ responses regarding inclusion of casual blood glucose screening in their current curricula. Second-year dental students self-reported hypoglycemia in three instances and hyperglycemia in eight, based on current American Diabetes Association standards. Students agreed or strongly agreed that the value of teaching was informative (92.3 percent), beneficial (95 percent), and something that might be included in their practices (78.2 percent), with 19.2 percent being neutral on the inclusion. Only six U.S. dental schools reported teaching casual random glucose screening
