Critical review: effect of curcumin on glycemic and lipid profile in type 2 diabetes mellitus
(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2023-05-11) Condori Quispe, Elena Yudi; León Cáceres, Johanna del Carmen
Nutritional intervention with curcumin exhibits several physiological and pharmacological properties, such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, neuroprotective, and antidiabetic activities. This secondary research titled “Critical Review: Effects of Curcumin on the Glycemic and Lipid Profile in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus” aimed to monitor biochemical parameters through turmeric consumption in type 2 diabetes patients. The Evidence-Based Nutrition (NuBE) methodology was used, and 22 articles were found in PUBMED, MEDLINE, SCIELO, and LILACS, of which 10 were selected for evaluation using the CASPE tool. The selected systematic review and meta-analysis study titled “Potential therapeutic effects of curcumin on the glycemic and lipid profile in uncomplicated type 2 diabetes: a meta-analysis of a randomized controlled trial” has a level II evidence and strong recommendation grade. The critical commentary concluded that hemoglobin A1c, the homeostasis model assessment (HOMA), and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) showed statistically significant reductions in patients treated with curcumin.

Degree of accuracy and precision level of the most used Glucometers in Metropolitan Lima, 2015
(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 1905-07-07) Talaverano Llactas, Luis Hover; Sandoval Vegas, Miguel Hernán
The Glucotest is a device for measuring blood glucose levels using electrochemical methods or photometric reflectance, available in different brands, designs, and applications for monitoring and treating diabetes. The objective was to determine the accuracy and precision of the most commonly used Glucotests in Metropolitan Lima in 2015, through a quantitative, technological, prospective, cross-sectional, descriptive, and correlational study. Three brands of devices were studied: Prestige Easy, Onetouch Ultra Mini, and Accu-Chek Active. Results were compared with laboratory results under internal and external quality control. Accuracy (E%), precision (CV%), and correlation were assessed using Pearson’s r. Results showed that Prestige Easy had an E% of 12.12% and CV% ranging from 4.53% to 4.89%, outside the desired range. Onetouch Ultra Mini had an average E% of 9.1%, with acceptable CV% values of 1.50% and 1.58% in levels I and II, and a CV% of 2.68% in level III. Accu-Chek Active had an E% of 6.17%, with acceptable CV% values of 1.50% and 1.58%, and a CV% of 2.68% in level III. Correlation coefficients were: Prestige Easy 0.77, Onetouch Ultra Mini 0.90, and Accu-Chek Active 0.96. In conclusion, the Glucotest Accu-Chek showed better accuracy compared to Prestige Easy or Onetouch Ultra Mini, although only 30% of values were accurate. Only the Accu-Chek Glucotest showed adequate precision quality at all three glucose levels studied, while the Prestige Easy test had lower precision. In general, precision was better than accuracy across all devices, but none met the ideal limits.

Desarrollo y validación de un test para la medición de glicemia mediante el análisis de imágenes con un smartphone – 2024
(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2024-09-27) Guzman Heredia, Luis Angel; Saldaña Orejón, Italo Moisés
Introducción: un teléfono inteligente confiere portabilidad, comodidad y ahorro. Atributos que tienen la posibilidad de extenderse hacia el uso de sistemas analíticos y en consecuencia, ayudar al usuario a medir analitos cuando llegue las circunstancias de no disponer de las herramientas necesarias para medirlo de la manera estandarizada, además de poder llevar y realizar el análisis en cualquier lugar. Objetivo: determinar si el análisis por imágenes realizado a través de un Smartphone es válido o verificable para la medición de glucosa sérica con respecto al método por espectrofotómetro. Material y métodos: se diseñó un estudio no experimental de corte longitudinal en la clínica Guadalupe durante el periodo octubre – febrero 2024. Se evaluaron concentraciones séricas en un rango de entre 30 y 500 mg/dL mediante el método por espectrofotómetro y también mediante el análisis por imágenes a través de un smartphone. Resultados: se evaluaron concentraciones decrecientes a partir de 500 mg/dL donde el método por captura de imágenes por smartphone presento una linealidad a partir de 50 mg/dL, con respecto a la veracidad se determina que no existe diferencias significativas entre ambos métodos, también se realizó el coeficiente de variación en concentraciones alta (455mg/dL), media (200mg/dL) y baja (35.64 mg/dL) infiriendo que existe una buena precisión en concentraciones medias y altas, con respecto al límite de detección, de determina que el método por imágenes tiene un límite menor que el método por espectrofotómetro. Conclusión: se concluye que el análisis por imágenes posee un buen performance en concentraciones de 50mg/dL hasta 500 mg/dL en relación al método por espectrofotómetro.

Effect of glycemic index and high-protein diet on weight maintenance in overweight or obese patients
(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2022-05-04) Alcantara Rodriguez de Chumpitazi, Maria Irene; León Cáceres, Johanna del Carmen
Overweight and obesity have an impact on public health. Various nutritional interventions have been implemented to reduce and maintain weight loss. This secondary research, titled "Critical Review: Effect of Glycemic Index and High-Protein Diet on Weight Maintenance in Overweight or Obese Patients," aimed to demonstrate the effectiveness of glycemic index and high-protein diet in maintaining weight loss in overweight or obese patients. The clinical question was: Is the glycemic index and protein intake effective for maintaining weight loss in adult patients who have experienced overweight or obesity? The Evidence-Based Nutrition (NuBE) methodology was used. Information was searched in PUBMED, SCIELO, COCHRANE, and REDALYC, yielding 61 articles, of which 10 were selected and evaluated using the CASPE critical reading tool. The final selection was the randomized clinical trial titled "Maintenance of weight loss in overweight subjects with an ad libitum diet considering low or high-protein diets and glycemic index: results from the DIOGENES trial at 12 months," which has an AI level of evidence and a strong recommendation grade, according to the researcher’s experience. The critical comment allowed us to conclude that a high-protein content in an ad libitum diet is effective in maintaining weight loss.
