Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to assess dietary practice and associated factors among patients with diabetes attending the Debre Tabor General Hospital. DESIGN Institutional-based cross-sectional study. SETTING Amhara regional state, Debre Tabor General Hospital. PARTICIPANTS Patients with diabetes attending the diabetics' clinic. MEASUREMENTS The study was conducted from February to March 2016. Simple random sampling technique was used to select the study participants and data were collected using a pretested structured interviewer administered questionnaire. Patients' dietary practice was assessed using the general advice for diabetic plan containing 11 items. The data were entered using Epi Info V.7 and analysed using SPSS V.20. Binary logistic regressions analysis was used to identify factors associated with poor dietary practice. Adjusted ORs (AORs) with corresponding 95% CI and p˂0.05 were used to identify significant factors affecting poor dietary practice. RESULTS A total of 390 patients with diabetes were participated in the study making a response rate of 96.5%. The overall proportion of poor dietary practice was 55.4% (95% CI 50.8% to 60.5%). Respondents of rural residence (AOR 1.99, 95% CI 1.21 to 3.28), Not getting diabetic nutrition education (AOR 3.32, 95% CI 2.02 to 5.44), difficulty to determine what to eat (AOR 5.49, 95% CI 3.34 to 9.02), not having family/friends support (AOR 2.50, 95% CI 1.46 to 4.27), worried about high cost of foods (AOR 2.12, 95% CI 1.29 to 3.49) were significantly associated with poor dietary practice. CONCLUSIONS More than half of patients with diabetes were had poor dietary practice. Rural dwellers, not getting nutrition education, difficulty of choosing foods, not getting family/friends support and worried about high cost of foods were positively and significantly associated with poor dietary practice. Hence, integration of diabetic based nutrition education with motivation particularly for rural patients is highly recommended.

Abstract
Abstract
Objective. The aim of this study was to assess whether microRNA-146a and its adapter proteins TNF receptor associated factor6 (TRAF6) and interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase-1 (IRAK1) may be changed in the kidney of streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats, following regular moderate exercise.
Methods. Forty adult male Wistar rats were allocated randomly into four groups (n=10), including sedentary control (SC), sedentary diabetic (SD), healthy sixty-day exercise (H60E), and diabetic sixty-day exercise (D60E) groups. Diabetes was induced by an intraperitoneal injection of 60 mg/kg streptozotocin. After 48 h, blood glucose levels >250 mg/dl was included to diabetic rats. After 2 days of diabetes induction, the exercise protocol began. Animals were exposed to 5 days of consecutive treadmill exercise for 60 min/day with the 22 m/min speed for 60 days. The kidneys of the rats were removed and microRNA was extracted from them using the miRCURYTM RNA isolation kit.
Results. In diabetic rats, statistical analysis revealed a significant decrease in miR-146a expression, non-significant decrease in IRAK1 mRNA expression, and non-significant increase in TRAF6 and NF-kB mRNA expression compared to the SC group. Exercise led to a non-significant increase in the expression of miR-146a and NF-kB mRNA in the kidneys of the diabetic group as compared to the SD group, significant increase in TRAF6 and IRAK1 mRNA expression compared to the H60E group, and significant increase in TRAF6 mRNA expression compared to the SD group.
Conclusion. The present data indicate that exercise might be able to help in the prevention in the diabetic nephropathy development.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To examine changes in health and lifestyle indicators over 6 months in persons with type 2 diabetes mellitus receiving nutrition counseling from a registered dietitian, and to promote dietetics professionals' participation in outcomes monitoring and research. DESIGN Prospective, noncontrolled descriptive study. SUBJECTS Two hundred forty-four physician-referred adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus from 31 sites who received usual and customary nutrition counseling, and 83 registered dietitians. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Glycemic control, coronary heart disease risk, self-management behaviors, and quality of life were measured at baseline, 3 months, and 6 months. Dietitians' perceptions of the study were also measured. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS Repeated-measures analysis of variance, paired t test, Wilcoxon signed rank test, sign test, Spearman correlation, and chi 2 analysis were conducted. RESULTS Weight and glycemic control, coronary heart disease risk, and self-management behaviors improved significantly between baseline and 3 months and baseline and 6 months. Weight, body mass index, and glycosylated hemoglobin value also improved significantly between 3 months and 6 months. Increased time and/or number of sessions with the registered dietitian were associated with weight loss and reduced glycosylated hemoglobin, fasting plasma glucose, total cholesterol, and triglyceride levels. Self-perceived health status and missed workdays were significantly improved at 6 months. Difficulty obtaining current laboratory values, lack of time, and inability to reach subjects for follow-up presented the greatest obstacles for the dietitians. CONCLUSIONS Positive outcomes were observed in adults receiving nutrition intervention for type 2 diabetes. Clinical improvements were greatest between baseline and 3 months, with stabilization between 3 months and 6 months, suggesting ongoing intervention is needed to support continued clinical progress. Dietitians found participation in this state affiliate-coordinated research project rewarding.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To describe diet and exercise practices from a nationally representative sample of U.S. adults with type 2 diabetes. METHODS We analyzed data from 1,480 adults older than 17 years with a self-reported diagnosis of type 2 diabetes in the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES III). Fruit and vegetable consumption was obtained from a food frequency questionnaire; the percentages of total calories from fat and saturated fat were obtained from a 24-h food recall. Physical activity was based on self report during the month before the survey. RESULTS Of individuals with type 2 diabetes, 31% reported no regular physical activity and another 38% reported less than recommended levels of physical activity. Sixty-two percent of respondents ate fewer than five servings of fruits and vegetables per day. Almost two thirds of the respondents consumed >30% of their daily calories from fat and >10% of total calories from saturated fat. Mexican Americans and individuals over the age of 65 years ate a higher number of fruits and vegetables and a lower percentage of total calories from fat. Lower income and increasing age were associated with physical inactivity. Thirty-six percent of the sample were overweight and another 46% were obese. CONCLUSIONS The majority of individuals with type 2 diabetes were overweight, did not engage in recommended levels of physical activity, and did not follow dietary guidelines for fat and fruit and vegetable consumption. Additional measures are needed to encourage regular physical activity and improve dietary habits in this population.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The present study was designed to evaluate the advantages of qigong walking, a mild and slow exercise that uses all the muscles of the body, in comparison with conventional walking in patients with diabetes. INTERVENTIONS Ten inpatients with diabetes mellitus and associated complications were studied on 3 different days. Either qigong walking (30-40-minute duration) or conventional walking was performed by the patients 30 minutes after lunch on 1 of the 3 study days. Plasma glucose levels and pulse rates were measured 30 minutes after lunch and again 20 minutes after exercising; that is, 90 minutes after lunch. These data were compared to those obtained on a day with no exercise after lunch. RESULTS Plasma glucose levels decreased during both exercises (from 228 mg/dL before to 205 mg/dL after conventional walking) and (from 223 mg/dL before to 216 mg/dL after qigong walking). In both situations the results after exercise decreased more than those in the group with no exercise (229 mg/dL; p < 0.025). The pulse rates increased after conventional walking (from 77 to 95 beats per minute; p < 0.025) and were higher than those in the group with no exercise (70 beats per minute; p < 0.01) and those after qigong walking (79 beats per minute; p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Qigong walking reduced plasma glucose after lunch without inducing a large increase in the pulse rate in patients with diabetes.

Abstract
Medical conditions may be exacerbated by environmental stresses or may limit tolerance to them. To advise patients who are planning foreign or wilderness travel of potential health risks, medical providers must first understand the interactions between physiologic demands from environmental factors and from exercise, and the patient's medical problems. This article considers medical limitations owing to specific environmental stresses and limitations imposed by specific medical problems. The challenge is to match the prospective participant with the proposed activity to minimize the risk of failure caused by medical problems.

Abstract
Obesity is the most important nutritional disorder in the developed world, since up to 10% of the population are obese. The place of physical activity and diet in the aetiology of obesity is discussed. The traditional treatment of obesity includes change in lifestyle, nutritional education and modification and increase in exercise. These changes are important for long-term success. There are a number of other treatment options including anorectic drugs, the use of very low calorie diets and surgical techniques which may have some clinical role. For the extremely obese patient with established complications surgery may be the most appropriate intervention and may be life-saving. Most studies of traditional treatment have demonstrated limited success. The prevention of obesity is therefore of great importance. Large-scale studies have shown that it is possible to modify behaviour and cardiovascular risk factors. The prevention of obesity requires a coordinated approach with targeting of children and their carers. Governmental involvement and legislation is essential. The future holds the promise of more imaginative and coordinated therapies for obesity using the skills of physicians, nutritionists, exercise physiologists and psychologists. Different forms of treatment may be appropriate for different groups of obese patients.

Abstract
Careful monitoring and proper adjustments of insulin and caloric intake allow the diabetic athlete to participate safely and successfully in almost any activity. Close interaction between the patient, physician, dietitian, or diabetic team is essential to allowing safe participation for the diabetic athlete. Physical exercise has long been considered beneficial in the treatment of both type I and type II diabetics. Improved self-image, maintenance of ideal body weight, and decreased hypertension and lipid-related cardiovascular risk factors are readily achievable by the diabetic who regularly exercises. Improved glycemic control has not been proved to be a long-term benefit of regular exercise, and this issue will remain controversial in the future. The practicing physician should understand clearly the metabolic responses to exercise in both normal and diabetic patients. The physician should be skilled in providing proper advice regarding exercise for all diabetic patients.

Abstract
Our aim was to develop a computer simulator program that allows patients to practise insulin dose and dietary adjustment on a day of planned exercise, and shows the resulting blood glucose response in an average diabetic patient. The degree of blood glucose change predicted by the program was determined from changes predicted by five local specialists in seven hypothetical scenarios involving exercise +/- dietary or insulin dose adjustments. The program was then tested against 18 outside specialists' responses in 7 different scenarios. The program simulates the 24 h glycaemic response after 45 min mild or moderate exercise starting 2 h after meals, as well as changes to this response induced by alterations in dietary carbohydrate and/or insulin dose. Coefficients of variation of specialists' blood glucose predictions were greater for exercise (35% local, 31% outside specialists) than dietary change (7% local, 10% outside specialists; p = 0.002-0.04). The program's predicted change in blood glucose levels in the seven scenarios correlated well with the outside specialists' corresponding mean predictions (r = 0.97; p = 0.0001). We conclude that specialists are less consistent in predicting glycaemic change with exercise than with dietary alteration. Nevertheless it is possible to represent their predictions in a computerized simulator for diabetic patient education.

Abstract
Exercise is beneficial in both prevention and control of non-insulin-dependent (type II) diabetes. Whether a patient has insulin-dependent or type II diabetes, a regular exercise program can produce positive changes in the lipid profile, reduce blood pressure and weight, and improve other cardiovascular risk factors. The risks of an exercise program include precipitation of cardiovascular events, damage to the soft tissue and joints of the feet, visual loss, early and delayed hypoglycemia, and hyperglycemia and ketosis. Consequently, a comprehensive clinical assessment to identify potentially harmful diabetic complications and to determine the patient's fitness level is needed before a suitable exercise program can be prescribed. With careful manipulation of insulin doses and home monitoring of blood glucose levels, exercise need not adversely affect glycemic control. Moreover, the metabolic and cardiovascular benefits that result from a sensible exercise program can greatly improve the quality of life for most diabetic patients.

Abstract
Prevalence of hypertension is greater than normal in patients with type 1 (insulin-dependent) and type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes. In those with type 2 diabetes insulin resistance and hyperinsulinaemia may play a part in the pathogenesis of hypertension independent of obesity. Regular physical activity increases insulin sensitivity through its effect on glucose utilisation in peripheral (muscle) tissue. Furthermore, physical activity helps control weight, and it may reduce blood pressure and, serum cholesterol and triglycerides concentrations while increasing the amount of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. So physical exercise programmes should be included in the management of patients with type 2 diabetes. Suitable exercise forms and programmes can be prepared for most patients.
