The aim of this study was to estimate the relationship between personality of 66 healthy women and 66 women with type 2 diabetes. The average age of both groups was 63. I use the 16th Personality Factors Test by Cattell. A lower level of intelligence characterizes the personality of a diabetic, they are more submissive, effusive and responsible. They are calmer and more practical in their behavior. Healthy women are more self-sufficient and unconventional.

The number of patients with type 2 diabetes increases along with civilizational development. Advanced treatment methods applied in diabetology and other branches of medicine increase the number of patients. The aim of this work is to present diagnostic and therapeutic problems in elderly people with diabetes. There isa a number of other diseases coexisting with diabetes. These are: hypertension, hyperlipidemia and obesity. The risk of diabetes increases with age and it is related to lowered insulin secretion, worsened absorption and insulin resistance. Diabetes symptoms in older patients differ from those of other age groups. An early diagnosis can minimize the risk of any cardiovascular events, ranked as one of the leading causes of death in elderly patients. The choice of treatment should be adjusted to the particular patient’s needs, avoid any sudden modifications of administered drugs and educating the patients. These are the most important elements of the therapy.

Introduction: Time orientation can significantly improve health-related prevention behaviour and influence disease outcome through boosting health-oriented behaviour. This study aims to compare time perspective between diabetic and cancerous patients, and healthy people. Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted on 300 patients (105 healthy, 195 patients: 108 type 2 diabetes and 87 breast and digestive system cancer) aged 20 to 70 years (average age of 45.4 years). The samples were separated into three groups based on a convenience sampling method and were matched in terms of gender, age, education and monthly income. Data was collected through the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory (ZTPI-56) questionnaire and then evaluated with analysis of covariance (F test) followed by Fisher’s Least Significant Difference (LSD) test. Results: The three groups showed different time perspectives (F = 4.213, p < 0.05) and different ranking in time orientation. Conclusion: Our findings show that the disease and its type can significantly impact the time orientation of patients. Therefore, to prevent potential subsequent outcomes, the patients’ time perspective towards disease should be improved, especially under disease conditions.

The present study deals with the application of correlation analysis as an option for assessment of clinical data from diabetes mellitus type 2 patients. One hundred clinical cases of patients are considered as object of the statistical treatment, each one of them characterized by 34 various clinical parameters. The go al of the study was to find patterns of correlation between the clinical tests. Each group of correlated indices is interpreted revealing specific aspects of the data structure. Relevant explanation of the correlation is found based on the patterns of correlation for parameters determining glucose level, anthropometric data, enzyme level, liver function, kidney function etc. It is assumed that this correlation could be of help in optimizing the performance of clinical test for this type of patients and for designing a pattern for the role of the different groups of test in determining of the metabolic syndrome of the patients.

Zastosowano analizę korelacyjną jako metodę wspomagającą ocenę danych klinicznych pacjentów chorujących na cukrzycę typu 2. Badaniami objęto stu pacjentów, każdy z nich został scharakteryzowany za pomocą 34 różnych parametrów klinicznych. Celem badań było znalezienie struktur w korelacjach pomiędzy wynikami testów klinicznych. Każda skorelowana grupa pokazuje specyficzne aspekty struktur danych. Korelacje wyjaśniono na podstawie znalezionych struktur w korelacjach pomiędzy poziomem cukru we krwi, danymi antropometrycznymi, poziomem enzymów, funkcjami wątroby i nerek i in. Wydaje się, że korelacje te pomogą lepszemu wykorzystaniu testów klinicznych dla tego typu pacjentów oraz w projektowaniu grup testów do określania zespołów metabolicznych pacjentów.

Obesity is a global problem, more and more children have a weight above the norm. Obesity is related to circulatory system and metabolic disorders. Relations between obesity and metabolic disorders are known, however factors affecting the risk of such syndromes may extend beyond mentioned relations. Existence of vitamin D receptors in many of body cells, especially in pancreas islets of Langerhans indicates the possibility of significant role played by vitamin D in glucose homeostasis. Several epidemiological studies have reported that low 25-hydroxy vitamin D levels, the most common vitamin D indicator in plasma, very frequent in obese children, is correlated with insulin resistance. Moreover, mechanism of vitamin D is associated both with calcium level in tissues, that regulate insulin synthesis and insulin secretion, and direct secretion of pancreatic beta cells. Parathormone PTH, often defined as obesity indicator, is also crucial. Its high level indicates the risk of metabolic disorders. There is no doubt that reducing of body mass together with complementation of vitamin D insufficiency is the best solution for obese children to decrease the risk of incidence and limit the consequences of type 2 diabetes, one of most common civilization disease.

Otyłość jest problemem na poziomie globalnym i dotyczy w coraz większym stopniu dzieci. Prowadzi do wielu chorób, w tym głównie związanych z układem krążenia i zaburzeniami metabolicznymi. Zależności pomiędzy otyłością a chorobami metabolicznymi są powszechnie znane, jednak okazuje się, że czynniki wpływające na ryzyko zachorowalności mogą wykraczać poza wspomniane zależności. Obecność receptorów witaminy D w wielu komórkach ciała, w tym w obszarze trzustkowych wysp Langerhansa, wskazuje na możliwą istotną rolę tej witaminy w przemianach, które warunkują zachowanie właściwej glikemii. Wiele badań wskazuje, że niski poziom 25 hydroksywitaminy D, często spotykany u dzieci z nadwagą, jest skorelowany ze zwiększoną insulinoopornością. Mechanizm działania witaminy D jest nie tylko związany z regulacją poziomu wapnia w tkankach, ale także wiąże się z bezpośrednim wydzielniczym działaniem trzustkowych komórek beta, czyli regulacją syntezy i sekrecji insuliny. Nie bez znaczenia jest stężenie parathormonu PTH, często nazywanego wyznacznikiem otyłości, którego wysoki poziom świadczy o możliwym ryzyku zachorowania na choroby metaboliczne. Wątpliwości nie budzi fakt, iż obniżenie masy ciała wraz z uzupełnieniem niedoborów witaminy D u dzieci otyłych jest właściwym sposobem zminimalizowania ryzyka zachorowania lub ograniczenia skutków jednej z najczęstszych chorób cywilizacyjnych naszych czasów, cukrzycy typu 2.

Diabetes in an incurable disease. The diabetes treatment consists of keeping the blood glucose at a low level. The first aim of this study was to estimate the relationship between anxiety of healthy women and women with type 2 diabetes The second aim was to estimate the relationship between anxiety and metabolic control in diabetic women. The first group which was examined consisted of 66 women with type 2 diabetes who were at hospital and second group was formed of 66 healthy women. The average age of both groups was 53. I used the State Trait anxiety Inventory (STAI) by C. D. Spilbergera and glycosylated hemoglobin for glycemic control. The research indicates that the diabetic women had a significantly higher level of trait anxiety and poorer metabolic control was correlated with state anxiety.
