Background: Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH) disease is a rare, multisystem autoimmune disorder characterized by bilateral granulomatous panuveitis, with or without extraocular manifestations. Although its exact etiology and pathogenesis remain unclear, it is hypothesized to involve T-cell dysregulation targeting melanocyte-containing tissues, including the CNS, eye, ear, and skin. VKH predominantly affects pigmented groups, such as Asians, Hispanics, Indians, Native Americans, and Mediterranean ethnicities, accounting for 7-22.4% of uveitis cases. Retrospective analyses indicate a higher incidence among female patients, with most cases occurring in the second and fifth decades of life. Aim: This case report discusses a patient with probable VKH who exhibited ocular, neurologic, and auditory symptoms typical of the prodromal or acute uveitic phase and responded well to prompt management. Case Presentation: A young female in her late 20s presented with low-grade fever, severe headache, neck pain, and neck stiffness. She had received symptomatic treatment at another hospital without relief. She was empirically started on intravenous antibiotics and dexamethasone for suspected pyogenic meningitis and was discharged upon symptom relief. However, she returned two days later due to symptom recurrence. Ophthalmic examination revealed decreased visual acuity bilaterally (6/24), sluggish pupil reaction, optic disc edema, and bilateral macular serous detachments. Mild vitritis with anterior chamber cells and iris pigment on the anterior lens capsule was noted in the left eye. Systemic examination was unremarkable, except for fine crepitations in the bilateral lower lung fields. Management: Considering VKH disease, the patient was started on intravenous methylprednisolone pulse therapy (1 gram/day) for 3 days, followed by oral steroids and topical steroid drops for the eyes. She was discharged with oral prednisolone and prednisolone acetate 1% eye drops. At follow-up, her vision imp

It is well known that Diabetes Specific Nutritional Supplements (DSNSs) are linked to improved glycemic control in individuals with diabetes. However, data on efficacy of DSNSs in prediabetics is limited. This was a two-armed, open-labelled, randomized controlled six-week study on 199 prediabetics [30 - 65 years;Glycosylated Hemoglobin (HbA1c) 5.7% - 6.4% and/or Fasting Blood Glucose (FBG) 100-125 mg/dl]. Two parallel phases were conducted: Acute Blood Glucose Response (ABGR) and Intervention phase. Prediabetic participants were randomized into test (n = 100) and control (n = 99). The primary objective was to assess the ABGR of DSNS versus an isocaloric snack, measured by incremental Area under the Curve (iAUC). Test and control received 60 g of DSNS and 56 g of isocaloric snack (cornflakes) respectively, both in 250 ml double-toned milk on visit days 1, 15, 29 and 43. Postprandial Blood Glucose (PPG) was estimated at 30, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180 minutes. During the 4 weeks intervention phase, the test group received DSNS with lifestyle counselling (DSNS + LC) and was compared with the control receiving lifestyle counselling alone (LC alone). Impact was studied on FBG, HbA1C, anthropometry, body composition, blood pressure, nutrient intake, and physical activity. The impact of DSNS was also studied using CGM between two 14-day phases: CGM1 baseline (days 1 - 14) and CGM2 endline (days 28 - 42). DSNS showed significantly lower PPG versus isocaloric snack at 30 (p 12, and chromium were reported by DSNS + LC versus LC alone. No other significant changes were reported between groups. It may be concluded that DSNS may be considered as a snack for prediabetic or hyperglycemic individuals requiring nutritional support for improved glycemic control.

Glycemic Indices of Multiple Oral Nutritional Supplements: A Randomized Cross-Over Study in Indian Adults

Food and Nutrition Sciences 2023年第10期14卷 941-962页

Background: A randomized cross-over study was conducted to assess the glycemic index (GI) of seven Oral Nutritional Supplements (ONSs). These ONSs are designed to support the nutritional requirements of different age-groups, physiological states, or health conditions among Indian adults. Methods: The study had two phases viz., phase1 (n = 18) studied two ONSs: A1 and B1 and phase 2 (n = 20) studied five ONSs: A2, B2, C2, D2 & E2. The subjects were healthy, non-diabetic adults, aged between 20 - 44 years with a mean Body Mass Index of 21.2 ± 1.52 kg/m2 (Phase 1) and 21.0 ± 1.45 kg/m2 (Phase 2). All these ONSs were compared with reference drinks (glucose). The carbohydrates in one serving of each ONS were matched to carbohydrates from 25 grams of glucose following ISO 2010 guidelines. Capillary blood was assessed for blood glucose response at baseline, 15, 30, 45, 60, 90 and 120 minutes. GI was calculated as the incremental area under the curve (iAUC) for the test drinks and expressed as a percentage of the average iAUC from glucose. Results: Phase 1 indicated that the high fiber diabetes-specific nutrition supplement A1 with higher protein (23% energy), higher fat (25% energy) and reduced carbohydrates (40% energy) had a significantly (p = 0.002) lower GI [34 (±6)] as compared to B1 [63 (±7)] (protein 19%, fat 7% and carbohydrates 60% energy) even with similar amount (22%) and type of fiber. Phase 2 reported that all test products [A2 (32 ± 5), B2 (37 ± 4), C2 (31 ± 5), D2 (31 ± 5) and E2 (55 ± 4)] had a low GI. As compared to phase 1, ONSs in phase 2 had lower fiber content (1.6% - 4.6% energy). Conclusion: The glycemic index of oral nutrition supplements is influenced not only by their fiber content, but also by the overall macronutrient composition including protein (≥17% energy), fat (≥10% - 27% energy) and carbohydrates (40% - 57.5% energy).
