Effect of Ramadan Fasting on Biochemical Parameters, Dietary Intake in Type 2 Diabetes Miletus in the State of Qatar

Background: During Ramadan, type 2 diabetic Muslims abstain from eating and drinking from sunrise to sunset. This long fasting period may cause changes in blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, lipid profile and other biochemical parameters, eating behaviors, and nutrient intake. The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of Ramadan fasting on nutrient intake, changes in blood sugar, lipid profile and, other biochemical parameters in type 2 diabetic patients who fasted Ramadan in the state of Qatar.

Methods: The study was conducted among 38 Muslim subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus who undertook fasting during Ramadan. All subjects were subjected to a dietary assessment at three stages, i.e., Before Ramadan (BR), During Ramadan (DR), and After Ramadan (AR), by a trained dietician. The 24-hour dietary recall method was the tool for dietary assessment. Energy, macronutrients, sodium, and calcium intake were assessed using a 24-hour recall through a face-to-face interview in each stage. 5ml blood sample was collected to measure FBS, HbA1c, lipid profile, creatinine, BUN, sodium, and calcium were measured before, during and after Ramadan.

Results: Significant decrease in fasting blood sugar (P=0.03), HbA1c level (P=0.04), BUN (P=0.04), and creatinine (P=0.03). While the non-significant increases in lipid profile including total cholesterol, LDL-C, HDL‐C and TG were noticed (P>0.05). There is no change was noticed in albumin, hemoglobin, and vitamin D. Daily consumption of energy, carbohydrate, and protein was significantly reduced during Ramadan (p < 0.000) when compared to before Ramadan. While fat, sodium, and calcium intake were significantly increased during Ramadan fasting (p < 0.000).

Conclusion: Ramadan fasting improve fasting blood sugar, HbA1-c, and some of biochemical parameters but has no effect on lipid profile. Reduce total energy and variations in macro and micronutrients intake during Ramadan fasting.

#traumaticbraininjury (TBI) is associated with an increased risk of late #neurodegenerative complications via unknown mechanisms. Circulating neurotoxic 5-hydroxytryptamine 2A receptor (5-HT2AR) autoantibodies were reported to increase in subsets of obese #type2 diabetes having microvascular complications. We tested whether 5-HT2AR autoantibodies increase in adults following #traumaticbraininjury in association with neurodegenerative complications.

It deals with human functions such as the coordination of metabolism, respiration, reproduction, sensory perception, and movement.

Endocrinology is a medical specialty that deals with the diagnosis and treatment of diseases related to hormones, particularly the biochemical processes involved in the body's normal functioning. It deals with areas related to the field such as biosynthesis, storage, chemistry, and physiological function of hormones and with the cells of the endocrine glands and tissues that secrete them. 

Endocrinology mainly focuses on the endocrine organs, such as pituitary, thyroid, adrenals, ovaries, testes, pancreas, secretions called hormones, also its diseases and other syndromes. Behavioral Endocrinology is a study of hormones and their influence on regular behavior. Studies related to behavioral endocrinology have assessed that there is a casual relationship between the presence of a hormone in the circulatory system and the occurrence of certain behavioral patterns. They have also concluded that the frequency of the behavior alters if the endocrine gland producing hormone is removed.

Images in Endocrinology Journal and Metabolism Case Reports indexed in PubMed publishes imaging in Endocrinology, case reports in clinical Endocrinology, videos in Endocrinology.

Clinical endocrinology is the study of the endocrine system, its function, and its diseases or abnormalities as related to patient care. In other words, a clinical endocrinologist would spend most of his/her time seeing patients who have one or more disorders of the endocrine system. The endocrine system can be defined as those organs in the body which release hormones that regulate many of the body’s functions, like the testes and ovaries, the pancreas, the pituitary gland, and the thyroid gland.

ngl i still kinda think i want to be a doctor i went to tour FSU and the biomedical engineering dept was so cool! i'm not so into the mechanical side of things and the electrical stuff but the chem lab had some really cool projects we got to look at and the professor was so nice. but i also love environmental engineering it is special to me and more importantly every project is like. something very important to society that i care about and understand. i also feel like civil engineering is easier for me because it's more concrete, there's always a real world application, and also you don't have to do anything with circuit boards lmao. also biomed is cool but honesty my big goal with my career is just to do something good and useful to society (that doesn't bore me to tears) and if i end up working for big pharma or producing medical equipment knowing it's not going to end up with the people who need it bc of price gouging i WILL kill myself. so i am torn over all.

Endocrine Society experts recommend individualized approach to use of telehealth

Endocrine Society experts recommend individualized approach to use of telehealth

Newswise — WASHINGTON—Following rapid growth during the COVID-19 pandemic, telehealth visits are expected to remain an important part of endocrine care, according to a new Endocrine Society policy perspective published in The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism. Health care providers need to consider a variety of factors when determining which type of visit best serves an individual…

A common concern about gender-affirming hormone therapy for transmasculine people is the risk of red blood cell volume changes and erythrocytosis, a high concentration of red blood cells, with the use of prescribed testosterone. However, Mount Sinai researchers have found that testosterone treatment may be safer than previously reported, with results published today in The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism. Mount Sinai researchers from the Division of Endocrinology and Center for Transgender Medicine and Surgery examined the relationship between the use of testosterone as part of gender-affirming hormone therapy (GAHT) for transmasculine individuals and changes in hematocrit, a test that measures how much of a person's blood is made up of red blood cells. The study of a large North American cohort is the largest on this subject to date. [...] Researchers found that higher testosterone levels were associated with higher hematocrit levels, however, the magnitude of change in hematocrit was small and unlikely to be clinically meaningful. Only 8.4 percent of transmasculine individuals in the study had a hematocrit greater than 50 percent, and less than 1 percent had a hematocrit greater than 54 percent, the level at which treatment for erythrocytosis is recommended, often through the use of phlebotomy (bloodletting). These numbers are lower than those previously reported in smaller studies, and the finding of such a small degree of change in hematocrit and a lower risk of erythrocytosis should provide more assurance to those prescribing and using testosterone as GAHT.

Good news for everyone on T!

We have a serious problem

Michael Laidlaw, MD: I'm a board-certified endocrinologist, practicing in private practice for the last 16 years. I've been studying and publishing in this area for the last 5 years, including peer reviewed journals such as Journal of of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, and others. I also have a patient who is a detransitioner.

I think it's important to note that studies are shown that desistance, or growing out of this condition, of children by adulthood is very high. It's some 50-98%.

I want to be sure before I give someone a very powerful hormone like Insulin that they in fact have diabetes.

What about cancer? Before we give any powerful agents such as chemotherapeutics or surgeries, we certainly want to have physical evidence of this problem, such as biopsies or imaging.

Now, the gender affirmative therapy treatment proposed by WPATH gives very powerful hormones and surgeries on what basis? Where can we find the gender identity to be certain that these children will not desist by adulthood? Can we use imaging of the brain or blood tests, genetic testing, are there other biomarkers to ensure that we are correct? There is no such thing.

Julia Mason, MD: The Endocrine Society put out guidelines in 2017, and they were very careful in the guidelines. One, to point out that the evidence was of low and very low quality. And they also said in the guidelines that they have no idea how you identify which kids are trans and require this treatment.

And then the American Academy of Pediatrics the next year just leapt into that void and said, oh, oh, we'll tell you how you know which kids. You ask them.

Prior to 2018 I had maybe one trans patient. But then there was another one. And another one. And another one.

It wasn't until later that I started asking questions like, wait, every single kid I send to the gender clinic gets put on puberty blockers or cross-sex hormones. Just, it was happening immediately.

Patrick Hunter, MD: This affirmative model of care has spread wildly in the last 8 years. Now we have objective, unbiased systematic reviews. These systematic reviews tell us the evidence for youth transition is poor quality, and with very low certainty for benefit.

In JAMA Pediatrics, there was a study reported from Northwestern University in Chicago. Patients ranged in age from 13 to 24 years. The authors concluded that mastectomy was beneficial and should not be delayed in youth. What lead them to that conclusion? The finding that 3 months after surgery, the 36 patients were happy with their flat chests. They lost 9% of their surgical cases to follow-up. Nine percent. In 3 months.

It is absurd, meaningless to draw any conclusions after 3 months.

This paper is indicative of the quality of research we have in this field, published in our most prestigious journals.

We have a serious problem.

Researchers have found a correlation between flavonoids, a compound found in fruits and vegetables, and a reduction in the symptoms of endometriosis. In the study, published in the journal Endocrinology, the researchers outline how flavonoids may be able to help suppress the symptoms of inflammatory diseases like endometriosis. In endometriosis, cells similar to those in the lining of the uterus begin growing in other places in the body, causing inflammation. The painful condition affects millions of women, and there is no cure. Flavonoids have been associated with anticancer, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antiviral medical benefits, but the details of how they work have remained a mystery. “Scientists have known for a while that people who eat more fruits and vegetables tend to live longer and have lower risk for many types of diseases, including Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s diseases,” says Stephen Safe, a professor in the veterinary physiology and pharmacology department at the School of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences at Texas A&M University.

Does fenugreek affect testosterone?

Fenugreek is a herb that has been used for centuries for its medicinal properties. It is a good source of fiber, vitamins, and minerals, and it has also been shown to have a number of health benefits, including:

Reducing blood sugar levels

Improving digestion

Boosting immunity

In recent years, there has been some interest in the potential of fenugreek to affect testosterone levels. Some studies have shown that fenugreek may increase testosterone levels in men, while others have shown no effect.

One study, published in the journal "Andrologia," found that men who took fenugreek extract for 12 weeks had significantly higher testosterone levels than men who took a placebo. Another study, published in the journal "Phytotherapy Research," found that fenugreek extract increased testosterone levels in men with low testosterone levels.

However, other studies have found no effect of fenugreek on testosterone levels. One study, published in the journal "The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism," found that fenugreek extract had no effect on testosterone levels in men.

Overall, the evidence on the effects of fenugreek on testosterone levels is mixed. Some studies have shown that fenugreek may increase testosterone levels, while others have shown no effect. More research is needed to determine the true effects of fenugreek on testosterone levels.

Here are some of the ways that fenugreek may affect testosterone levels:

Fenugreek may increase the production of testosterone by the testicles.

Fenugreek may increase the release of testosterone from the testicles.

Fenugreek may decrease the breakdown of testosterone in the body.

It is important to note that fenugreek is not a substitute for medical treatment. If you are concerned about your testosterone levels, talk to your doctor.

A prominent study claiming that medical transition alleviated suicidality had to be corrected, to clarify that it proved “no advantage of surgery” in this regard. (American Journal of Psychiatry (2020). Correction to Bränström and Pachankis. Published online: 1 August 2020. [Link])

A long-term study in the European Journal of Endocrinology demonstrating that suicide rates among transgender "male-to-females" were 51% higher than the general population. (Asscheman, H., Giltay, E. J., Megens, J. A. J., de Ronde, W., van Trotsenburg, M. A. A. & Gooren, L. J. G. (2011). [Link])

British review conducted by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) graded certainty of evidence for puberty blocker use as “very low” in every category, including impact on gender dysphoria, mental health, body image, global functioning, psychosocial functioning, cognitive functioning, bone density and adverse effects.

National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE); NHS England; NHS Improvement. [Link])

A German study “found insufficient evidence to determine the efficacy or safety of hormonal treatment approaches for transgender women in transition”, adding that “[t]his lack of studies shows a gap between current clinical practice and clinical research.” (Haupt, C., Henke, M., Kutschmar, A., Hauser, B., Baldinger, S., Saenz, S.R. & Schreiber, G. (2020). Antiandrogen or estradiol treatment or both during hormone therapy in transitioning transgender women. Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews 11. [Link])

When it comes to gender dysphoric children, there is little evidence that medical transition decreases suicide rates. There is little evidence to assert that puberty blockers are necessary to prevent suicide. (Biggs, M. (2020). Puberty Blockers and Suicidality in Adolescents Suffering from Gender Dysphoria.
