Abstract
The detrimental effects of both diabetes mellitus (DM) and hyperglycemia in the perioperative period are well established and have driven extensive efforts to control blood glucose concentration (BGC) in a variety of clinical settings. It is now appreciated that acute BGC spikes, hypoglycemia, and high glycemic variability (GV) lead to more endothelial dysfunction and oxidative stress than uncomplicated, chronically elevated BGC. In the perioperative setting, fasting is the primary approach to reducing the risk for pulmonary aspiration; however, prolonged fasting drives the body into a catabolic state and therefore may increase GV. Elevated GV in the perioperative period is associated with an increased risk for postoperative complications, including morbidity and mortality. These challenges pose a conundrum for the management of patients typically instructed to fast for at least 8 h before surgery. Preliminary evidence suggests that the administration of an oral preoperative carbohydrate load (PCL) to stimulate endogenous insulin production and reduce GV in the perioperative period may attenuate BGC spikes and ultimately decrease postoperative morbidity, without significantly increasing the risk of pulmonary aspiration. The aim of this scoping review is to summarize the available evidence on the impact of PCL on perioperative GV and surgical outcomes, with an emphasis on evidence pertaining to patients with DM. The clinical relevance of GV will be summarized, the relationship between GV and postoperative course will be explored, and the impact of PCL on GV and surgical outcomes will be presented. A total of 13 articles, presented in three sections, were chosen for inclusion. This scoping review concludes that the benefits of a PCL outweigh the risks in most patients, even in those with well controlled type 2 DM. The administration of a PCL might effectively minimize metabolic derangements such as GV and ultimately result in reduced postoperative morbidity and mortality, but this remains to be proven. Future efforts to standardize the content and timing of a PCL are needed. Ultimately, a rigorous data-driven consensus opinion regarding PCL administration that identifies optimal carbohydrate content, volume, and timing of ingestion should be established.

Abstract
Successful self-management of diabetes requires Continuous Glucose Monitors (CGMs). These CGMs have several limitations such as being invasive, expensive and limited in terms of use. Many techniques, in vain, have been proposed to overcome these limitations. Nowadays, with the help of the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) technologies, researchers are working to find alternative solutions. They succeed to predict hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia peaks using Electrocardiogram (ECG) signals. However, they failed to use it to estimate the Blood Glucose Concentration (BGC) directly and in real time. Three patients with 08 days of measurements from the D1namo dataset contributed to the study. A new technique has been proposed to estimate the BGC curves based on ECG signals. We used a convolutional neural network to segment the different regions of ECG signals as well as we extracted ECG features that were required for the next step. Then, five regression models have been employed to estimate BGC using as input sixth ECG parameters. We were able to segment the ECG signals with an accuracy of 94% using the convolutional neural network algorithm. The best performance among all simulated models was provided by Exponential Gaussian Process Regression (GPR) with Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE) values of 0.32, 0.41, 0.67 and R-squared (R2) values of 98%, 80%, and 70% for patients 01, 02 and 03 respectively. The method indicates the potential use of ECG wearable devices as non-invasive for continuous blood glucose monitoring, which is affordable and durable.

Abstract
Taurine enhances physical performance; however, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. This study examined the effect of taurine on the overtime dynamics of blood glucose concentration (BGC) during endurance exercise in rats. Male F344 rats were subjected to transient treadmill exercise until exhaustion following 3 weeks of taurine supplementation or non-supplementation (TAU and CON groups). Every 10 min during exercise, BGC was measured in blood collected through cannulation of the jugular vein. Gluconeogenesis-, lipolysis-, and fatty acid oxidation-related factors in the plasma, liver, and skeletal muscles were also analyzed after 120-min run. Exercise time to exhaustion was significantly longer with taurine supplementation. BGC in the two groups significantly increased by 40 min and gradually and significantly decreased toward the respective exhaustion point. The decline in BGC from the peak at 40 min was significantly slower in the TAU group. The time when the once-increased BGC regressed to the 0-time level was significantly and positively correlated with exercise time until exhaustion. At the 120-min point, where the difference in BGC between the two groups was most significant, plasma free fatty acid concentration and acetyl-carnitine and N-acetyltaurine concentrations in skeletal muscle were significantly higher in the TAU group, whereas glycogen and glucogenic amino acid concentrations and G6Pase activity in the liver were not different between the two groups. Taurine supplementation enhances endurance capacity by delaying the decrease in BGC toward exhaustion through increases of lipolysis in adipose tissues and fatty acid oxidation in skeletal muscles during endurance exercise.

Abstract
The time series of blood glucose concentration in diabetic patients are time-varying, nonlinear, and non-stationary. In order to improve the accuracy of blood glucose prediction, a multi-scale combination short-term blood glucose prediction model was constructed by combining the variational mode decomposition (VMD) method, the kernel extreme learning machine (KELM), and the AdaBoost algorithm (VMD-ELM-AdaBoost). Firstly, the blood glucose concentration series were decomposed into a set of intrinsic modal functions (IMFs) with different scales by the VMD method. On this basis, the KELM neural network and AdaBoost algorithm are combined to predict each IMF component. Finally, the cumulative blood glucose concentration prediction value is obtained by accumulating the KELM-AdaBoost prediction results of each IMF. The time series of measured blood glucose concentration were used for experimental analysis; the experimental results show that the proposed VMD-KELM-AdaBoost method has higher prediction accuracy compared with the classical prediction models such as ELM, KELM, SVM, and LSTM. The proposed VMD-KELM-AdaBoost model can still achieve high prediction accuracy 60 min in advance (the mean values of RMSE, MAPE, and CC are about 10.1422, 4.8629%, and 0.8737 respectively); in Clarke error mesh analysis, the proportion of falling into A region is about 95.7%; the sensitivity and false alarm rate of early alarm of hypoglycemia were 94.8% and 7.7%, respectively. Graphical abstract We have proposed a new prediction model. In the first part, for reducing thenon-stationarity, the data of blood glucose concentration was decomposed as a series ofIMF by VMD. In the second part, a prediction model based KELM and Adaboost wasestablished. In the third part, the KELM-Adaboost model was used to predict each IMF,and the predicted values of all IMFS were superimposed to obtain the final predictionresult of blood glucose concentration.

Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Diabetes mellitus (DM) is one of the most prevalent diseases globally and is of considerable concern to global health. Approximately 425 million people are estimated to have DM globally and this is predicted to increase to >642 million by 2040. Whilst the prevalence of DM in South Africa is slightly lower than the global average, it is expected to rise rapidly in future years as more South Africans adopt a high calorie "westernised" diet. Traditional medicines offer an alternative for the development of new medicines to treat DM and the usage of South African plants is relatively well documented. AIM OF THE STUDY To critically review the literature on the anti-diabetic properties of South African plants and to document plant species used for the treatment of DM. Thereafter, a thorough examination of the related research will highlight where research is lacking in the field. MATERIALS AND METHODS A review of published ethnobotanical books, reviews and primary scientific studies was undertaken to identify plants used to treat DM in traditional South African healing systems and to identify gaps in the published research. The study was non-biased, without taxonomic preference and included both native and introduced species. To be included, species must be recorded in the pharmacopeia of at least one South African ethnic group for the treatment of DM. RESULTS One hundred and thirty-seven species are recorded as therapies for DM, with leaves and roots most commonly used. The activity of only 43 of these species have been verified by rigorous testing, and relatively few studies have examined the mechanism of action. CONCLUSION Despite relatively extensive ethnobotanical records and a diverse flora, the anti-diabetic properties of South African medicinal plants is relatively poorly explored. The efficacy of most plants used traditionally to treat DM are yet to be verified and few mechanistic studies are available. Further research is required in this field.

Abstract
AIM To investigate possible changes of blood glucose levels after oral intake of lactulose in healthy subjects.
METHODS The study was performed as prospective, randomized, two-part study with 4-way cross-over design with n = 12 in each study arm. Capillary blood glucose levels were determined over a time period of 180 min after intake of a single dose of 10 g or 20 g lactulose provided as crystal or liquid formulation. During the manufacturing process of lactulose, impurities with sugars (e.g., lactose, fructose, galactose) occur. Water and 20 g glucose were used as control and reference. Because lactulose is used as a functional food ingredient, it may also be consumed by people with impaired glucose tolerance, including diabetics. Therefore, it is of interest to determine whether the described carbohydrate impurities may increase blood glucose levels after ingestion.
RESULTS The blood glucose concentration-time curves after intake of 10 g lactulose, 20 g lactulose, and water were almost identical. None of the three applications showed any changes in blood glucose levels. After intake of 20 g glucose, blood glucose concentration increased by approximately 3 mmol/L (mean Cmax = 8.3 mmol/L), reaching maximum levels after approximately 30 min and returning to baseline within approximately 90 min, which was significantly different to the corresponding 20 g lactulose formulations (P < 0.0001). Comparing the two lactulose formulations, crystals and liquid, in the dosage of 10 g and 20 g, there was no difference in the blood glucose profile and calculated pharmacokinetic parameters despite the different amounts of carbohydrate impurities (1.5% for crystals and 26.45% for liquid). Anyhow, the absolute amount of single sugars was low with 0.3 g in crystals and 5.29 g in liquid formulation in the 20 g dosages. Lactulose was well tolerated by most volunteers, and only some reported mild to moderate mainly gastrointestinal side effects.
CONCLUSION The unchanged blood glucose levels after lactulose intake in healthy subjects suggest its safe use in subjects with impaired glucose tolerance.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the effect of low glycemic index (LGI) carbohydrate meal on subjective, metabolic and physiological responses, and endurance performance in the Ramadan fasted state. METHODS During Ramadan, 12 Muslim men, in a randomized and crossover design, ingested for the sahur meal (i.e., last meal before commencement of the day's fast), either LGI (glycemic index = 37) or mixed (CON; ∼57) meal of equivalent macro-nutrient. At ∼12 h post-prandial, subjects completed a 60 min continuous run. RESULTS There were no significant differences between the two meals for ratings in perceived satiety, fullness, appetite and mood states. During steady-state exercise, there were no significant differences in metabolic and physiological measures. In the time-trial, distance ran was significantly lower in LGI versus CON meal trial, but with a corresponding lower perceived exertion in the LGI trial. CONCLUSION Compared to CON, ingesting LGI as the sahur meal did not provide any metabolic, physiological or performance benefits during endurance run performed 12 h post-prandial in Ramadan fasted state.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lignocaine hydrochloride is the most widely used and easily available local anaesthetic agent. Adrenaline is frequently combined with lignocaine to enhance the duration of anaesthesia, decrease toxicity, to achieve vasoconstriction and to provide a bloodless field. AIM AND OBJECTIVE This study was conducted to do the comparative evaluation of local anaesthesia with adrenaline and without adrenaline on blood glucose concentration in patients under going tooth extraction. MATERIALS AND METHOD The study was conducted on 120 patients comprising of 60 healthy and 60 diabetic patients. All these patients were in need of multiple extractions. The patients were in the age group of 18-50 years. On their first visit the patients were given plain lignocaine and tooth extraction was carried out. One week later the same patient was given lignocaine with 1:80,000 adrenaline to carry out tooth extraction. Serial blood glucose estimations were done at definite intervals (prior to administration of local anaesthetic, immediately after injecting the LA, 10 and 20 min following the injection of LA) on both the occasions. RESULTS The mean blood glucose concentration increased from the base line level of 84.81 to 85.09 mg/dl in healthy patients and from 206.82 to 207.09 mg/dl in diabetic patients 10 min following the injection of 2% plain lignocaine. This increase in blood glucose concentration following the administration of plain lignocaine was statistically not significant (P > 0.05). There was statistically significant (P < 0.005) increase in the blood glucose concentration from 88.81 to 105.55 mg/dl in healthy, and 208.77 to 242.46 mg/dl in diabetic patients 20 min following the injection of lignocaine with adrenaline. INTERPRETATION AND CONCLUSION While assessing the generalized effects of local anaesthetic solutions, metabolic as well as haemodynamic responses should be investigated. Adrenaline containing LA should be used with caution in Type 2 diabetics as adrenaline causes suppression of insulin release.
