The effect of physical exercise on blood glucose levels in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus
Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by hyperglycemia. This study aimed to analyze the effect of physical exercise on blood glucose levels in patients with Type 2 DM at the Medan Johor Public Health Center. This analytical observational study utilized a case-control design and involved 34 respondents, divided into a case group (with uncontrolled blood glucose levels) and a control group (with controlled blood glucose levels). Data on physical activity, including frequency, duration, and intensity of exercise, were obtained through interviews using the GPAQ questionnaire, while blood glucose level data were sourced from medical records. The results showed a significant relationship between physical activity (p=0.028), frequency of physical exercise (p=0.006), duration of physical exercise (p=0.015), and intensity of physical exercise (p=0.034) with blood glucose levels. Physical exercise performed at least three times a week, for a minimum duration of 30 minutes per session, and at an appropriate intensity proved effective in controlling blood glucose levels in patients with Type 2 DM. This study emphasizes the importance of incorporating physical exercise into the management plan for Type 2 DM
Rare manifestation of orbital hematoma in hemophilia B: A case report
Introduction: Severe Hemophilia B is a blood coagulation disorder with the most common clinical manifestation is bleeding manifestation in major joint. In this article, we present a case of 5-year-old boy with severe hemophilia B, whose clinical bleeding manifestation was rarely reported, located in unilateral orbital hematoma. By reporting this case of hemophilia B with rare clinical manifestations, we aim to increase the awareness so as to accelerate the diagnosis and management of hemophilia B. Case Presentation: A 5-year-old boy came to the emergency ward with complaints of a swollen and bluish right eye socket since a week prior to admission. Patient also experienced other symptoms such as frequent joint pain, prolonged bleeding after injury, and bruises (hematoma) on the trunk, elbows, and knees. The coagulation tests showed a prolonged APTT with normal PT and INR. Due to resource-limited setting, sample referral was needed to perform factor VIII and IX examination, and FFP transfusion was given to the patients during the admission. Factor VIII and IX results were available after patient had been discharged, with a low-level activity of factor IX (<1%). Patient was diagnosed as severe hemophilia B, and was referred to tertiary health-care facility from outpatient department for comprehensive management. Conclusion: Despite of the most common location of bleeding manifestation in Hemophilia B, other bleeding manifestation such as orbital hematoma should also be considered as Hemophilia B manifestation. Early diagnosis and prompt treatment will give a better prognosis for patient with hemophilia
