DOI: https://doi.org/10.56984/8ZG007D6TB3

Abstract
Purpose. This study was conducted to verify the influence of an occupational therapy program on hand grip, pinch grip, and manual dexterity in children with type 1 diabetes.
Methods. Sixty children diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, including 31 girls and 29 boys aged 6 to 8 years, participated in the study. They were randomly divided into two equal groups. Group A received a traditional physiotherapy program, while group B received the same traditional physiotherapy program combined with a designed occupational therapy program. All participants underwent laboratory investigation of standardized hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels. Hand grip was measured using a JAMAR hand-held dynamometer. Manual dexterity and pinch strength (tip, tripod, and key strength) were evaluated using the Bruininks-Oseretsky Test of Motor Proficiency, second edition, and the Baseline Mechanical Pinch Gauge, respectively, before and after the treatment over a 3-month period with three weekly sessions.
Results. After the treatment, the study group exhibited significant improvements in manual dexterity as well as hand and pinch grip strength compared to their baseline levels (p < 0.01). Additionally, post-treatment comparisons between the study and control groups showed significant enhancements in manual dexterity, hand grip, and pinch grip strength in the study group (p < 0.001). Both groups also demonstrated significant reductions in HbA1c levels post-treatment compared to their pre-treatment measurements (p < 0.001).
Conclusions. A designed occupational therapy program can enhance hand functions in children with type 1 diabetes.

Ari Septiyanto, Suharjana, Agus Sumhendartin Suryobroto – Effects of yoga interventions on cardiac autonomic function in patients with diabetes: a randomized controlled study –  Fizjoterapia Polska 2025; 25(1); 138-143

DOI: https://doi.org/10.56984/8ZG007DE1RR

Abstract
Background. Diabetes mellitus is a chronic condition often accompanied by autonomic neuropathy and reduced heart rate variability (HRV), which is associated with increased cardiovascular risk. Yoga has shown promise as a non-pharmacological intervention to improve autonomic function in various populations.
Objectives. The primary objective of this randomized controlled trial was to evaluate the effects of a 12-week yoga intervention on cardiac autonomic function, as measured by HRV parameters, in patients with type 2 diabetes.
Methods. Ninety adults with type 2 diabetes were randomly assigned to either a yoga intervention group (n = 45) or a control group (n = 45). The yoga group participated in a 60-minute yoga session three times per week for 12 weeks, while the control group maintained their usual care. Short-term HRV was assessed at baseline and post-intervention using time-domain (SDNN, RMSSD, pNN50) and frequency-domain (LF, HF, LF/HF ratio) parameters. Additional cardiometabolic risk factors were also evaluated.
Results. The yoga group demonstrated significant improvements in time-domain HRV parameters, including mean RR, mean HR, SDNN, RMSSD, and pNN50 (p < 0.05). In the frequency domain, the yoga group showed a significant increase in HF power (p = 0.03) and reductions in LF power (p = 0.02) and LF/HF ratio (p = 0.04), suggesting enhanced parasympathetic activity and better autonomic balance. The control group showed a decline in SDNN and pNN50 over the study period.
Conclusions. A 12-week yoga program significantly improved cardiac autonomic function in individuals with type 2 diabetes, as demonstrated by positive shifts in both time-domain and frequency-domain HRV measures. These results indicate that yoga could serve as a helpful complementary approach to standard diabetes treatment, potentially lowering the risk of cardiovascular issues by enhancing autonomic regulation.

DOI: https://doi.org/10.56984/8ZG020CN4TC

Abstract Background. One common chronic condition is diabetes mellitus (DM), which is more prevalent in the elderly and is often linked to a variety of issues and concomitant conditions. Geriatric symptoms, such as depression, weakness, tiredness, and insomnia, are known to impact health outcomes in this demographic significantly. Objective. This study investigated the connection between glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels and geriatric symptoms in seniors with diabetes. Methods. An appropriate sample of fifty senior people (60–85 years old) with diabetes mellitus was selected from the outpatient ward of Saveetha Hospital. The HbA1c values were assessed in addition to examinations for geriatric symptoms using established measures. Potential correlations between HbA1c levels and geriatric syndromes were examined by statistical analysis. Results. The following variables showed significant positive relationships with HbA1c levels: frailty (r = 0.571, p < 0.000), fatigue (r = 0.725, p < 0.000), sleeplessness (r = 0.631, p < 0.000), and geriatric depression (r = 0.529, p < 0.000). Conclusion. In older diabetes mellitus patients, higher HbA1c levels were linked to a higher prevalence of fatigue, insomnia, frailty, and depression. These results emphasize the need for glycemic control in treating geriatric diseases in this population.

Getcyal Devakirubai Martin Jeyaraj et al. – Effect of deep breathing and bladder retraining on older women with diabetic-induced stress incontinence –  Fizjoterapia Polska 2024; 24(5); 227-231

DOI: https://doi.org/10.56984/8ZG020CPW1T

Abstract Background. An increasing number of older women, especially those with diabetes, are experiencing stress incontinence. This ailment can significantly affect the quality of life, frequently made worse by weaker pelvic floor muscles and more significant abdominal strain. The combined impact of deep breathing exercises and bladder retraining is a well-researched technique. Purpose. This research aims to determine how deep breathing techniques and bladder retraining affect stress incontinence in older female diabetics. Methods. Eighty older women with diabetic-induced stress incontinence were randomized into a group for intervention (receiving deep breathing exercises along with bladder retraining) and a control group (receiving standard diabetic care). The research employed a randomized controlled trial design. The frequency of incontinence episodes, stress levels examined using conventional scales, and blood sugar levels before and after the intervention, determined by glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), were among the outcome measures. Results. The frequency of incontinence events in the intervention group was statistically significantly lower compared to the control group. Furthermore, the intervention group displayed a statistically significant decrease in stress levels compared to the control group, which showed no discernible benefits. Measurements of hemoglobin A1c, which tracks blood sugar regulation, demonstrated a noteworthy amelioration in the intervention cohort relative to the control cohort. Conclusion. Together, deep breathing exercises and bladder retraining significantly reduce stress-related incontinence, enhance blood sugar management, and reduce the perceived stress levels of older women with diabetes. This integrated, non-invasive approach effectively treats psychological and physiological elements of stress incontinence. Healthcare providers should apply this strategy to improve the treatment of older diabetic women.

Abstract
This study is about the use of rice bran as a snack for people with degenerative diseases of diabetes mellitus and hypercholesterolemia. Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) are the highest cause of death and result in loss of productive days for sufferers and companions. To overcome this problem, the study aims to test rice bran cookies with 30% substitution on glucose levels, cholesterol levels, and triglyceride levels in experimental animals so that they can be recommended as healthy cookies low in sugar and low in fat for a snack for people with diabetes mellitus and dyslipidemia. This type of research is an experiment. Research location of the Inter-University Center Experimental Animal Laboratory (PAU) Gadjah Mada University (UGM). The initial stage is to prepare 15 male Sprague Dawley (SD) male white rats weighing 250-300 grams and in closed cages. Rats measured blood glucose levels, total cholesterol and triglycerides. Furthermore, the rats were grouped into 3 groups, and 2 groups were given an injection of streptozotocin (STZ) to make the rats diabetic. Group 1: 5 healthy rats fed a standard diet, group 2: 5 diabetic rats fed a standard diet, and group 3: 5 diabetic rats fed with rice bran cookies. Drinking water is given ad libitum and feeding is given every morning. Furthermore, weighing and analysis of blood glucose levels, total cholesterol, and triglycerides were carried out on the seventh, tenth, seventeenth, twenty-fourth, thirty-first, and thirty-eighth days. The results showed that 30% substitute bran cookies were able to reduce glucose levels, cholesterol levels, and serum triglyceride levels so that they could be recommended as a snack for people with diabetes mellitus and people with dyslipidemia.

DOI: https://doi.org/10.56984/8ZG20BA10

Abstract
Background. Diabetes mellitus (DM) is the second most common chronic disease in childhood. Diabetes care is multidimensional and should focus on preventing acute complications and reducing long-term consequences. A family-centered approach conserves the integrity of families and supports unique care for diabetic children.
Purpose. The study aimed to determine the effect of a family-centered program on the management of blood glucose levels in children with type 1 diabetes mellitus at Tabuk. Methods. The researcher employed a quasi-experimental design to conduct this study. A purposive sample of diabetic children and their families was included. Tools included a structured questionnaire (sociodemographic data, anthropometric measurements), Supervisory Behaviors of Caregivers, Management Behaviors of Children with DM questionnaires, a Self-efficacy Scale, and a Blood Glucose Levels Record Sheet. The study was conducted in three phases: preparatory, performance, and evaluation. Pre-test and post-test methods were utilized for data collection.
Results. There was a significant decrease in the mean scores of blood glucose levels, significant improvement in children’s management behavior for diabetic care, improvement in mothers’ supervisory behavior of management behavior for DM, and higher mean scores of mothers’ self-efficacy post compared to pre-family centered program.
Conclusion. Implementing the family-centered program improved children’s diabetic management behavior and hence controlling the blood glucose levels of children with diabetes mellitus and increased mothers’ self-efficacy. Recommendation. Transformation of diabetic management in children with DM to a fully family-centered system of care should be established.

Paulina Głowacka, Katarzyna Mizia-Stec, Zbigniew Gąsior – Type 2 diabetes mellitus and rehabilitation after myocardial infarction. Fizjoterapia Polska 2010; 10(4); 289-297

Abstract
This paper assesses the impact of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) on the effects of early post-discharge (Phase II) cardiac rehabilitation in post-myocardial infarction patients. The study involved 47 post-MI patients, of whom 21 had T2DM (Group I) and 26 did not have diabetes (Group II). Clinical symptoms and exercise test results according to the modified Bruce protocol were analysed at baseline and after 3 weeks of rehabilitation. HR and BP responses to exercise were evaluated along with metabolic expense and exercise duration. Both groups had a similar frequency of significant co-morbidities: arterial hypertension (76% in Group I and 73% in Group II) and lipid disorders (67% vs. 76%). Obesity was only found in Group II (36%). Both groups included patients after STEMI (75% in Group I vs. 69% in Group II) with no post-MI complications. The rehabilitation resulted in a significant improvement of exercise tolerance, which rose by 15% in METs, 20% in Watts, with test duration increasing by 13% in Group I, compared to 17%, 28%, and 16%, respectively, in Group II. Early post-discharge cardiac rehabilitation had a beneficial effect on exercise tolerance. In post-MI patients, type 2 diabetes diminishes the beneficial effects of rehabilitation.

Paulina Głowacka, Marcela Przyłudzka – Safe physical effort for diabetic patients. Fizjoterapia Polska 2018; 18(3); 86-93

 

Abstract
Systematic undertaking of regular, competitive physical exercise is an important component of the treatment of diabetes. Good metabolic control of diabetes is a key element in the effectiveness of physical training and sports success. A person who is active in sports with type 1 diabetes requires very precise insulin dosing as well as extensive knowledge and the ability to interpret metabolic phenomena occurring in the body during physical training. Errors in insulin therapy increase the risk of acute complications of diabetes, hypoglycaemia, ketoacidosis and negatively affect sports performance.
