Results from the first culturally tailored, multidisciplinary diabetes education in Lebanese adults with type 2 diabetes: effects on self-care and metabolic outcomes by Sukkarieh-Haraty, Ola

“…This pilot-study tested the effect of culturally-tailored education targeting diabetes selfcare on glycemia and cardiovascular risk factors of Lebanese with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) (n = 27; Age: 61 ± 10 yrs, 59% males, HbA1c: 8.98 ± 1.38%). Results: Diabetes self-care (Diet, Self-Monitoring Blood Glucose and foot care) improved after 6 months, which was reflected in a significant drop in glycemic levels (HbA1c:-0.5%; FPG: − 38 mg/dl), and cholesterol/HDL ratio (4.45 ± 1.39 vs. 4.06 ± 1.29). …”

Speculative model of genetic interactions involving the <i>paqr-1</i> and <i>paqr-2</i> genes. by Emma Svensson (216369)

“…<p>This model could explain the observed genetic interactions in the following way: 1) <i>paqr-1</i> or <i>paqr-2</i> are synthetic lethal with <i>sbp-1</i> (or <i>fat-6</i>) due to reduced fatty acid synthesis/TAG storage (reduced substrate supply) and reduced fatty acid oxidation, leading to ATP shortage; 2) <i>paqr-2</i>;<i>nhr-49</i> is lethal because two redundant pathways regulating fatty acid oxidation are impaired; 3) <i>paqr-2;aak-2</i> are healthier than the <i>paqr-2</i> single mutant because the <i>aak-2</i> mutation causes increased lipolysis, thus providing more fatty acids for energy production; and 4) <i>paqr-2 nhr-80</i> double mutants have decreased fatty acid desaturation (since <i>nhr-80</i> is a positive regulator of <i>fat-5</i> and <i>fat-7)</i>, which may result in improved membrane fluidity at 15°C. …”
