Human immune globulin intravenous (IGIV) products have been associated with renal impairment, acute renal failure, osmotic nephros s and death. Individuals with a predication to acute renal failure, such as those with preexisting renal disease, diabetes mellitus individuals older than 65 years or patients receiving nephrotoxic drugs should not be given human IGIV products...

The 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine is recommended for use in all adults 65 years of age or older and adults less than 65 years who have medical comorbidities that increase the risk for serious complications from S. pneumoniae infection, such as chronic pulmonary disorders, cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus, chronic liver disease, chronic renal failure, functional or anatomic asplenia, and immunosuppressive disorders. Alaskan natives and certain Native American populations are also at increased risk. Children over the age of 2 years may be vaccinated with the 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine if they are at increased risk for invasive S. pneumoniae infections, such as children with sickle cell anemia or those receiving cochlear implants. 

Chemical, biological, and pharmacological properties of lipoic acid as well as its therapeutic effects in several diseases (diabetes mellitus, liver cirrhosis, polyneuritis, etc.) are reviewed [198,199], It is evident from the chemical structures of LA and DHLA that only DHLA may be an efficient scavenger of all oxygen radicals, while LA should be active only in the reactions with highly reactive hydroxyl radicals. On the other hand, DHLA must be easily... 

Medical indications Chronic pulmonary disease (excluding asthma) chronic cardiovascular diseases, diabetes mellitus chronic liver diseases, including liver disease as a result of alcohol abuse (e.g., cirrhosis) chronic alcoholism, chronic renal failure or nephrotic syndrome functional or anatomic asplenia (e.g, sickle cell disease or splenectomy [if elective splenectomy is planned, vaccinate at least 2 weeks before surgery]) immunosuppressive conditions and cochlear implants and cerebrospinal fluid leaks. Vaccinate as close to HIV diagnosis as possible.

The risk factors for vascular dementia are essentially the same as those for stroke and heart attack. They include high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes mellitus, sickle cell disease, obesity, smoking, alcohol use, depression, and high cholesterol levels. 

Special risk patients Administer with caution to patients with thyroid disease, diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular disease, coronary artery disease, hypertension, peripheral vascular disease, heart disease, ischemic heart disease, increased intraocular pressure, or prostatic hypertrophy. 

In short, the risks for HF are hypertension, atherosclerotic disease, diabetes mellitus, obesity, metabolic syndrome, use of cardiotoxins and a positive family history of cardiomyopathy.

In clinical practice, depressive symptoms were common in patients with physical illness, including cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus, end-stage renal disease, and women in pregnancy, following delivery or menopause. However, data that specifically addressed serum lipid profiles in patients with depressive disorders and physical illnesses were still scarce. 

Depression and Metabolic Syndrome. Abnormal serum albumin levels and lipid profiles have both been observed in patients with major depression, as well as cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus, and end-stage renal disease. Depressive symptoms are very common in patients with these chronic illnesses. Recent clinical data have shown that cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus, end-stage renal disease, and obesity are all related to metabolic syndromes [68-74], and especially insulin resistance [75, 76]. However, the data examining major depression without physical illness and insulin resistance are still scarce. In the future, the biological relationship between depression and physical illness needs to be more fully explored. 

Obesity is defined as accumulation of fat in the body. Body weight that is 20% over the ideal body weight is considered obesity. Obese people are at risk for many complicated diseases, such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus,... 

Erectile dysfunction (ED), the inability to achieve or maintain a penile erection sufficient to permit satisfactory sexual intercourse, is estimated to affect over 100 million men worldwide, with a prevalence of 39% in those of 40 years. Its numerous causes include cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus and other endocrine disorders, alcohol and substance abuse, and psychological factors (14%). While the evidence is not conclusive, drug therapy is thought to underlie 25% of cases, notably from antidepressants (SSRI and tricyclic), phenothiazines, cypro-terone acetate, fibrates, levodopa, histamine H -receptor blockers, phenytoin, carbamazepine, allopurinol, indomethacin, and possibly adrenoceptor blockers and thiazide diuretics.

An overview of the disease diabetes mellitus will be used to supply motivation prior to starting our journey through the pathways of energy production. Diabetes mellitus is a major health concern on a global basis. This disease takes two forms, i.e., insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) and non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). Nutritional intervention is used in the treatment of diabetes, as revealed later in this chapter and in the Obesity chapter. IDDM is easily treated by injections of insulin, while NIDDM is more difficult to treat. NIDDM is treated with msulin and by weight reduction in obese patients. Use of soluble fiber in the diet may be used in the treatment of both t) es of diabetes. 

The consumption of sucrose as a sweetener has been associated with several nutritional and medical problems, with dental caries being the most well-documented [1]. Sucrose intake may also be a factor in cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus, obesity, and micronutrient deficiency [2]. Therefore, there has been a continual demand for novel...

There are differences among the diseases in terms of usual age at onset. Two autoimmune diseases, diabetes mellitus type 1 and myocarditis, are most commonly seen in children and adolescents. Most other autoimmune diseases are much less common in children... 

Studies of autoantibodies in the general population allow us to determine the prevalence of specific autoantibodies among people who do not have a clinically evident autoimmune disease, whether the prevalence of autoantibodies reflects the demographic variation in disease risk and whether specific environmental exposures are related to the expression of specific autoantibodies. These studies are most feasible for the autoantibodies associated with the most common autoimmune diseases diabetes mellitus type 1, autoimmune thyroid disease, and rheumatoid arthritis. Important issues with respect to interpreting these types of studies include the type of test used and definition of a positive result. 

Alopecia. Loss of hair, often associated with autoimmune disease (e.g. autoimmune thyroid diseases, pernicious anaemia, -Addison disease, diabetes mellitus type 1, systemic lupus erythematosus). Although a specific autoimmune response could not be found up to now, autoimmunity probably plays a role in a subset of this disease. 

Because this drug contracts smooth muscle, it is contraindicated in patients with vascular disease, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, or asthma. 

Free radicals are not just esoteric reactants they are the agents of cell death and destruction. They are involved in all chronic disease states (e.g., coronary artery disease, diabetes mellitus, arthritis, and emphysema) as well as acute injury (e.g., radiation, strokes, myocardial infarction, and spinal cord injury). Through free radical defense mechanisms in our cells, we can often restrict the damage attributed to the "normal" aging process.
