“…Exercise, physical activity, and diet are common lifestyle interventions (46)(47)(48). With early detection and simple lifestyle changes (such as diet and exercise), prediabetes is often reversible (49)(50)(51). However, 38% of the lifestyle treatment group failed to maintain the strict regimen after only 6 months.…”

BackgroundPrediabetes is a widespread condition that represents the state between normal serum glucose and diabetes. Older individuals and individuals with obesity experience a higher rate of prediabetes. Prediabetes is not only a risk factor for type 2 diabetes mellitus (t2dm) but is also closely related to microvascular and macrovascular complications. Despite its importance, a bibliometric analysis of prediabetes is missing. The purpose of this study is to provide a comprehensive and visually appealing overview of prediabetes research.MethodsFirst, the Web of Science (WOS) database was searched to collect all articles related to prediabetes that were published from 1985 to 2022. Second, R language was used to analyze the year of publication, author, country/region, institution, keywords, and citations. Finally, network analysis was conducted using the R package bibliometrix to evaluate the hotspots and development trends of prediabetes.ResultsA total of 9,714 research articles published from 1985 to 2022 were retrieved from WOS. The number of articles showed sustained growth. Rathmann W was the most prolific author with 71 articles. Diabetes Care was the journal that published the highest number of articles on prediabetes (234 articles), and Harvard University (290 articles) was the most active institution in this field. The United States contributed the most articles (2,962 articles), followed by China (893 articles). The top five clusters of the keyword co-appearance network were “prediabetes”, “diabetes mellitus”, “glucose”, “insulin exercise”, and “oxidative stress”. The top three clusters of the reference co-citation network were “Knowler. WC 2002”, “Tabak AG 2012”, and “Matthews DR1985”.ConclusionsThe combined use of WOS and the R package bibliometrix enabled a robust bibliometric analysis of prediabetes papers, including evaluation of emerging trends, hotspots, and collaboration. This study also allowed us to validate our methodology, which can be used to better understand the field of prediabetes and promote international collaboration.

“…Due to a lack of key intermediations, Pakistan is expected to have 11.4 million patients with diabetes mellitus in the next 10 years. 4 , 13 Cardiac operations in patients with diabetes have been associated with an extended length of hospital stay, higher perioperative illness, and death compared to non-diabetics. 14 Some postoperative complications are significantly more prevalent among diabetics, mainly renal failure, neurological accidents, sternal dehiscence, and infection.…”

Objective: To find out the prevalence of diabetes mellitus in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Methods: This retrospective study was conducted in Northwest General Hospital and Research center Hayatabad, Peshawar over a duration of 15 months (December 2020 ― March 2022). Every patient was tested through regular laboratory investigations. Diabetes mellitus was established according to WHO standards of fasting plasma glucose >126 mg/dl or two hours postprandial glucose level of 200 mg/dl. Data were analyzed using SPSS. Mean and standard deviation was used for quantitative data. Frequency and percentages were used for qualitative data. Shapiro Wilk’s test was done to find the normality of the data. Results: Out of a total of 360 candidates, 129 (36%) individuals were non-diabetic and 231 (64%) candidates were diabetic. Among the diabetic patients, 64 (28%) were female and 167 (72%) were males with a ratio of 1:2.6 respectively. Conclusion: Prevalence of diabetes was 64% among the CABG population. Since the prevalence of diabetes can significantly affect the outcomes of people undergoing CABG, it is essential to generate awareness regarding diabetes among healthcare workers as well as the general population. More extensive research is needed to be carried by various health care centers to figure out the prevalence of diabetes mellitus in cardiac surgery patients. doi: https://doi.org/10.12669/pjms.39.4.7250 How to cite this: Khan B, Mujeeb Ur Rehman, Mujahid Ul Islam, Ahmad I.

Objective: To find out the effect of Health Literacy (HL) on Treatment Adherence among Patients with Type II Diabetes Mellitus, covering both Pharmacological and Non-Pharmacological compliances.Methodology: This research was conducted using cross-sectional survey on patients with the mean age of 55.15+.59 years from Mercy teaching hospital of Peshawar from March to August 2022. Chronic Disease Self-Management Program (CDSMP) and another questionnaire related with knowledge, risk factors and its complications were also used. Control on diabetes of patients was measured by the last HBA1C test results. Analysis was carried out using SPSS v.26, using descriptive statistic and Pearson correlation.Results: In this study the response rate was 96.8%, with the mean age (n=242) of 55.15+.59 years. The Reliability of the scale Chronic Disease Self-Management Program (CDSMP) through Cronbach Alpha reliability was 0.88. Most of the patients were male (n=157, 64.8%), from OPD (n=238, 98%), and have diabetic family history (n=198, 80%) respectively. Majority of the patients were taking oral medications (n=135, 55.6%), have good diabetic control levels of HbA1c (n=104, 42.8%) and taken physician guide regarding diabetes knowledge and management (n=86, 35.4%) respectively. Statistically significant relationship was found between health literacy with pharmacological and non-pharmacological compliance (p=0.000) through Pearson correlation. Conclusion:It is concluded that a high level of HL plays a vital role in the management of type II diabetes, also it is strongly related with improved glycemic control, indicating a strong positive relationship between knowledge acquisition and successful management of diabetes.
