Abstract:

[Truncated abstract] The activity of the reproductive endocrine axis is the result of interactions among many organs and tissues, particularly the hypothalamus, pituitary gland and gonad. However, it depends on more than the communication between anatomical structures because it is also affected by genotype, internal factors (e.g., metabolic inputs) and external factors (e.g., photoperiod, socio-sexual cues, stress, nutrition). This multifactorial complexity makes it difficult to use animal experimentation to investigate the pathways and mechanisms involved. Therefore, in this study, I have tu

Abstract:

The alarming rate of increase in incidence and prevalence of the type 2 diabetes mellitus has prompted intense research on understanding the pathogenesis of the type 2 diabetes. It is observed that the development of type 2 diabetes is preceded by a state of insulin resistance and obesity. Previous studies have suggested that the obesity induced insulin resistance may be mediated by elevated levels of circulating free fatty acids (FFAs). The increase in circulating levels of FFAs may be contributed by the release of FFAs from stored triglycerides (TG) in adipocytes via lipolysis. It is hypothe

Abstract:

This thesis investigates the effect of body composition on insulin resistance and the impact of supplementation with nutritional support or carbohydrate treatment. Insulin resistance occurs as a response to a number of stressors, including surgery. However, the mechanism underlying the development of insulin resistance is as yet unclear. Adipose tissue distribution appears to play a role in the development of insulin resistance and obesity-related complications. In obese and non-obese patients undergoing open abdominal surgery who received preoperative carbohydrate or placebo, there was a sign

Abstract:

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is considered as a global major health problem, which requires healthcare systems to find solutions to meet the needs of the great numbers of people with T2D. One key to these solutions is nurses who undertake the provision of diabetes care. Nursing care in T2D varies across countries as a result of differences in healthcare systems, the way in which they are organised and other factors relating to nursing practice. The UK and Kuwait are two countries which have high incidences of T2D but differing health care delivery models, which has raised the need to understand the d

Abstract:

In clinical use, insulin improves glycaemic control at the cost, typically, of weight gain and more hypoglycaemia – both being risk factors for cardiovascular (CV) disease mortality. The issue of the effect of exogenous insulin on CV disease meanwhile has been debated for a long time. Data on the CV outcomes associated with insulin-treated diabetes in both randomised trials and observational studies have largely been inconsistent. Thus, a balance of the positives and the negatives of insulin therapy needs to be taken into account when prescribing insulin in routine clinical practice, particula

Abstract:

Regular physical activity among children with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) can help optimise long-term health outcomes. This thesis explores the experience of physical activity among children aged 9-11 years with T1DM and their parents, develops a physical activity intervention and evaluates its feasibility. Social cognitive theories have been drawn upon to develop our understanding and inform theoretically-driven behaviour change strategies. First, a systematic review with meta-analysis evaluates existing physical activity interventions for children with T1DM. The findings confirm the heal

Abstract:

Background: The practice of diabetes self-care plays an important role in glycaemic control. However, not all patients with insulin-treated diabetes engage in their self-care activities. Although there is evidence that self-care practices in patients with insulin-treated diabetes can be understood and predicted by health beliefs proposed by Health Belief Model (HBM), little is known about adult patients due to several methodological weaknesses of previous studies. Furthermore, knowledge is lacking about adults with insulin-treated diabetes in Malaysia. Aim: To examine whether health beliefs su

Abstract:

Approximately 3 million people throughout the UK suffer with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and are 32% more likely to die early. There remains a lack of evidence for the long-term effectiveness and safety of anti-diabetic drugs in preventing diabetes-related complications, making it unclear how to optimally manage diabetes. Work to date includes observational studies subject to bias, and randomised controlled trials (RCTs), which may not reflect the ‘real world’ situation. The aim of this thesis is to combine such findings via systematic reviews, meta-analyses and retrospective cohort studi

Abstract:

Hyperglycaemia is a main feature of diabetes, and this pathology is a main complication of pregnancy. Diabetic patients often require tighter glycaemic control in pregnancy, as glucose metabolism changes, and insulin dosages need to be adjusted. Throughout gestation, the placenta is therefore subjected to periods of hyperglycaemic insult. Thus, we wished to study how brief periods of hyperglycaemia affected the feto-placental vasculature, through study of important permeability molecules, pro-permeability VEGFa, anti-permeability VEGFb, and junctional stability molecule VE-cadherin.

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is the leading cause of visual impairment in the working-age population in developed countries and thus is one of the major ocular health problems worldwide. Diabetes seems to have paradoxical effects on the microvasculature in different tissues. The concentration of glucose in the cellular microenvironment determines the cells ability to proliferate, as well as its permeability, and react to different cytokines. The main cause of visual loss in diabetic eye disease is caused by an increase in microvascular endothelial permeability which leads to vessel leakage and fl

Ghrelin is a unique hunger-inducing stomach-borne hormone. It activates orexigenic circuits in the central nervous system (CNS) when acylated with a fatty acid residue by the Ghrelin O-acyltransferase (GOAT).

Ghrelin is also termed “hunger hormone” with a potentially important role as an endogenous regulator of energy balance. However, genetic deletion of ghrelin or its receptor, the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHSR), has only limite
