Sleep Deprivation Causes Diabetes  

Latest Research showed enough quality sleep and can help stabilize blood sugar. Therefore, people with diabetes are advised to arrange his sleep patterns. A recent study shows, if lack of sleep, the more elevated blood glucose levels and be more difficult to control the disease. The researchers compared 40 patients with type 2 diabetes with 531 people without diabetes.

The researchers studied the potential relationship between sleep quality, blood glucose levels, and other measures in controlling diabetes. "We found in those with diabetes, there is a correlation between lack of sleep and poorer glucose levels," said study leader Christian Knutson, an assistant professor at the University of Chicago, USA.

The conclusion of this study published in the May issue of the journal Diabetes Care. Previous research has found some relationship between diabetes and sleep quality. Knutson said, it was just an association, not cause causality. "This suggests that patients with diabetes are more susceptible to the effects of sleep disorders," he added. For the study, Knutson monitor participants' sleep patterns with activity monitors mounted on his wrist. "If he's a lot of moving the arm, meaning he is still awake," he said.

The study participants also reported their sleep quality. The researchers found that people with diabetes who have sleep problems have 23 percent higher levels of fasting glucose, 48 percent higher fasting insulin levels and insulin resistance 82 percent higher than those with diabetes who slept normally.

"These findings tend to reflect what is seen in clinical practice," said Dr. Joel Zonszein, Director of the Diabetes Center at Montefiore Medical Center, New York, United States. However, he revealed that the results do not answer the question "ayamtelur". "They can not tell us whether sugar levels will be higher because of poor sleep or patients who have a higher sugar will suffer from sleep disorders. Or are there other factors that cause it, "said Zonszein. Often times, Zonszein noted, people with type 2 diabetes are overweight and obese people generally can damage the quality of sleep. Obesity is known to be associated with disease-patients with sleep apnea stop breathing frequently at night and then woke up.

According Zonszein and Knutson, the message you want conveyed in this study is that patients with diabetes should watch their sleep quality. "If there is no research on sleep has been done, they (patients with diabetes) may want to ask the doctor (about what to do," said Zonszein.

Reduce stress, which is easier said than done, should be another goal for patients with diabetes who lack sleep. "Many people are stressed out, and they do not sleep well," he added. "Do not wait for the doctor to ask about sleep," Knutson said. Meanwhile, previous studies mentioned, someone less sleep less than six hours a day, three times more likely to have diabetes and heart disease. Studies by a team of researchers from Warwick Medical School and the State University of New York, Buffalo, New York, the United States have found that short sleep is associated with increased risk of pre-diabetic, which is known as impaired fasting glycaemia-incident (IFG).

IFG means that your body is not able to regulate glucose levels as efficiently as it could be done. Those who have IFG had a greater risk of type 2 diabetes, heart disease and stroke. The study looked at data from 1455 participants enrolled in the Western New York Health Study for six years was published in the journal Annals of Epidemiology. All participants aged between 35 to 79 years, and they completed a clinical examination including measurement of blood pressure, height, and weight.

They also completed a questionnaire about general health and sleep patterns. Chairman of the team of researchers at Warwick Medical School, Dr. Saverio Stranges, say, less than six hours of sleep is closely related to three-fold increased risk of having IFG compared with those who slept for an average of six to eight hours a night. This is the first study that looked at the relationship between sleep duration and IFG. According to Stranges, there are several ways in which loss of sleep can trigger a disorder of glucose metabolism.

"Some previous studies showed that short sleep time resulted in an increase of 28% levels that stimulate appetite hormone ghrelin that affect eating habits. Several other studies also indicate that lack of sleep can lower glucose tolerance and increased production of cortisol, a hormone that affects the level of stress, "he added.

HIV Vaccine Done Soon !  

Australian scientists a step to find a vaccine for HIV. They hope that these findings could eventually help human life for the future.

The experts at the University of Melbourne has found people with HIV who are able to produce antibodies called ADCC, which can trigger the immune system to find and attack the virus. Similarly, as quoted by The Age, Friday (6/5).

"Analysis of blood samples was also found antibodies to the HIV virus forced to change and make it weak," says Professor Stephen Kent, head of research.

"But because the antibody did not develop until he found his HIV virus, the antibodies can not immediately cure HIV, when they first arrived," he added.

Professor Kent explained that the antibody could be injected before the person gets infeski, for the sake of prevention.

"If a vaccine made ​​for this antibody, it can be used to prevent the virus," he said.

The team from the department of Microbiology and Immunology University of Melbourne is currently working on an HIV vaccine that would include ADCC antibodies.

"Around 30 million people worldwide infected with HIV, and that number will continue to grow,"concludes Professor Kent.

Ketchup Can Reduce Symptoms of Menopause  

Ketchup is now not just a complement to cuisine. Soy-based seasoning is fermented by microbes is claimed to reduce symptoms of menopause.

Protein-rich snacks are claimed to reduce symptoms of menopause such as hot flush, lack of sleep and even bone loss in women.

As reported by the Telegraph, scientists say soy contain natural compounds that can help reduce production of estrogen, a hormone that contributes to problems of menopause. Research in Japan, where soy is used as a complement to the daily diet, found that Asian women tend to experience milder symptoms of menopause compared to women of America and Europe, who rarely use this cooking.

According to experts at the National Institute of Health and Nutrition, Tokyo, women who eat soy or soy sauce as its derivative products will produce S-equol compound in the body that can stop bone loss and fat accumulation in the early stages of menopause.

In his research, a group of women in Japan at the request of soy-based supplements containing S-equol. After taking for 3 months, symptoms of menopause including hot flush as well as neck and shoulder stiffness is much more reduced.

Menopause is associated with a new chapter in the lives of women in which the hormone estrogen decrease. Decrease in estrogen production is associated with bone loss. While milder symptoms such as hot flashes in menopausal women felt by every worldwide.

Thus, these foods could be an alternative to conventional hormone replacement therapy has been used to overcome discomfort in women during menopause.
