tissue and autonomic neuropathy in diabetes. Therefore, we
investigated the morphologic changes of autonomic nerves in
the adipose tissue in diabetic animal model.
Method:
Animals were divided into two groups; male db/db
mouse and age matched control mouse were used. White
adipose tissues were collected from db/db control mouse and
were stained with immunohistochemistric method. Tyrosine
hydroxylase and choline acetyltransferase were labeled for
noradrenergic sympathetic and cholinergic parasympathetic
axons of adipose tissue respectively and observed by confocal
microscopy and analyzed. And, protein gene product 9.5 used
for whole autonomic and sensory nerve staining.
Result:
Sympathetic nerve fiber density of adipose tissue was
not significantly changed in diabetic and control mouse
adipose tissue. However, Parasympathetic nerve fiber density
of adipose tissuewas significantly increased in diabeticmouse
compare to control. The sympathetic to parasympathetic
nerve density ratio of adipose tissue is lower in diabetic
group compared to control group (0.72 vs 0.55).
Discussion:
Both sympathetic and parasympathetic nerve
fibers were observed in white adipose tissue. And sympathetic
to parasympathetic nerve fiber density of adipose tissue
density ration was decrease in diabetic group. Further
evaluation for the mechanism of the parasympathetic nerve
fiber density change was needed.

Introduction:
Incidence of autoimmune diseses are increasing
in many part of the world. AIHA and LADA are among the
autoimmune diseases that being studied recently. The patho-
logic correlation between AIHA and LADA in a patient is not yet
fully understood.
Case illustration:
A 34-years-old female patient came with
chief complaint of general weakness since 3 days before
admission. She was diagnosed of having ketosis and anemia.
She has the same symptom 2 year ago and was diagnosed
with anemia and got blood transfusion. About 1 year ago she
was diagnosed with diabetes mellitus and got treatment
with glibenclamide and metformin. No history of diabetes
mellitus and autimmune diseases in the family. From the
physical examination in general is within normal limit.
Laboratory examination show Coomb

s test positive, ANA
positive, high LDH level: 321, GAD 65: >30.0 U/mL (<1.1), ICA:
>1:8 titer (<1:2), Insulin Autoantibody <0.4 U/mL (<0.4),
Random Blood Glucose: 300 mg/dL, blood Ketone: 1,1. She
got treatment with methyl prednisolone 3 × 12 mg, folic acid
2 × 5 mg, vitamin B12 3 × 50 mg, basal insulin 1 × 30 U and
prandial insulin 3 × 28 U.
Discussion:
Prevalence of AIHA and LADA diagnosed in a
single patient is not yet known. Autoimmune cross reactivity
is one theory that suggest the connection between both
diseses. The role of HLA is another possible theory that
being studied. Management of patient with LADA and AIHA
need special concerned due to steroid used as immunosupres-
sion for AIHA that can worsen patient blood glucose profile.
Insulin is preferable for blood glucose control in this kind of
patient.
Conclusion:
Adult patient with diabetes mellitus whom
diagnosed of having an autoimmune disease such as AIHA,
should be evaluated weather the diabetes it self is due to an
autoimmune process. So the patient can have better manage-
ment and prevent complication.

Objective:
To evaluate the relation of mean platelet volume
(MPV) levels with serum PON-1 activity and brachial artery
diameter(BAd) and (BA-IMT) in diabetic patients with respect
to obesity and diabetic complications.
Methods:
A total of 201 diabetic patients grouped with respect
to obesity [obese (n = 89) and non-obese (n = 112) and diabetic
complications [with (n = 50) or without (n = 150) microvascular
complications and with (n = 91) or without (n = 108) macro-
vascular complications groups were included. Correlation of
MPV values to PON-1 activities as well as to(BAd) and (BA-IMT)
was evaluated in study groups.
Results:
PON-1 activity values were respectively in the overall
population, with no significant difference with respect to
obesity and macrovascular diabetic complications, where as
significantly lower values for PON-1 activity were noted in
patients with than without diabetic microvascular complica-
tions. MPV values were 9.10 (0.87) fL in the overall population,
with no significant difference with respect to obesity and
diabetic complications. No significant correlation of MPV
values to PON-1 activity and to(BAd) and (BA-IMT) was noted
in the overall study population as well as in study groups.
Conclusion:
In conclusion, our findings revealed a significant
decrease I PON-1 activity in diabetic patients with microvas-
cular rather than macrovascular complications, whereas
regardless of obesity and diabetic complications, no increase
in thrombogenic activity and no relation of thrombogenic
activity with PON-1 activity and(BAd) and (BA-IMT).

The effect of bariatric surgery on diabetic

Methods:
In this prospective multi-center study, we compared
