Abstract
Background: Diabetes is one of the chronic diseases need continual medical care and self care education, and nutritional therapy account as an integral part of dietary management. This study carried out to investigate the effect of diabetes dietary counseling on quality of life in type II diabetic patients.
Methods: As a Randomized Clinical Trial, 144 patients with type II diabetes aged 35-65 years were recruited from patients referred to Imam Hossein Hospital dietary clinic and randomly assigned in case and control groups. A dietary schedule consisting 50-60% carbohydrate, 10-20% protein and less than 30% fat was prescribed at the first orally in a 30-minute counseling session then in written form for case group, while the control group was left without any intervention. The quality of life score was estimated in both groups via using the Short-form 36-Item (SF-36), before dietary counseling and one mouth after the dietary counseling, and the quality of life score between both groups were compared. The data were analyzed using SPSS software.
Results: Average age was 52.1±10 years. Before dietary counseling, the quality of life among 46% of subjects was assessed to be poor and 52% claimed their health status poorer than the last year. Independent-Samples T-Test with P<0.05 revealed significant difference in weight, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, blood sugar before and after breakfast, blood cholesterol and triglyceride, after dietary counseling in both groups. Also, this test with P<0.05 revealed significant difference in the quality of life score in general and in each dimensions, after dietary counseling in both groups. Paired-Samples T-Test revealed significant increase in the quality of life score in general and in each dimensions on pre and post dietary counseling in case group, but didn’t observe in control group.
Conclusion: According to the results, it was revealed that dietary counseling can promote the quality of life in patients with type II diabetes in all dimensions. So, it seems dietary counseling program is essential in prevention and decrease of type II diabetes complications.

Abstract
Background: This study was designed to assess the effects of calcium and vitamin D supplementation on the metabolic status of pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM).
Methods: This randomized placebo-controlled trial was performed at maternity clinics affiliated to Kashan University of Medical Sciences, Kashan, Iran. Participants were 56 women with GDM at 24–28 weeks gestation (18 to 40 years of age). Subjects were randomly assigned to receive calcium plus vitamin D supplements or placebo. All study participants were blinded to group assignment. Individuals in the calcium–vita- min D group (n = 28) received 1,000 mg calcium per day and a 50,000 U vitamin D3 pearl twice during the study (at study baseline and on day 21 of the intervention), and those in the placebo group (n = 28) received two placebos at the mentioned times. Fasting blood samples were taken at study baseline and after 6 weeks of intervention.
Results: The study was completed by 51 participants (calcium–vitamin D n = 25, placebo n =26). However, as the analysis was based on an intention-to-treat approach, all 56 women with GDM (28 in each group) were included in the final analysis. After the administration of calcium plus vitamin D supplements, we observed a significant reduction in fasting plasma glucose (p < 0.001), serum insulin levels (p = 0.02) and HOMA-IR (p = 0.001) and a significant increase in QUICKI (p = 0.003) compared with placebo. In addition, a significant reduction in serum LDL-cholesterol (P=0.02) and total cholesterol: HDL-cholesterol ratio (p = 0.003) and a significant elevation in HDL-cholesterol levels (p = 0.01) was seen after intervention in the calcium–vitamin D group compared with placebo. In addition, calcium plus vitamin D supplementation resulted in a significant increase in GSH (p =0.03) and prevented a rise in MDA levels (p = 0.03) compared with placebo.
Conclusion: Calcium plus vitamin D supplementation in women with GDM had beneficial effects on their metabolic profile.

Abstract
Background: Usually excess feeding in stored in the body as fat and leads to overweight. One of the causes of catching type 2 diabetes is obesity. Proinflammatory cytokines such as TNF- α and IFNγ can damageTnf- Α And Ifnγ By Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells Of Patients With Diabetes Mellitus Type Ii Admitted To Ganjavian Dezful Hospit insulin signaling in insulin-sensitive tissues. In this study, the effect of garlic extract on the expression of TNF-α and IFNγ secreted by the mononuclear cells was measured.
Methods: After taking peripheral blood from patient with type 2 diabetes, mononuclear cells were extracted by Ficoll Method. Cells were a culture with two different concentration of garlic extract (10% and 30%) for 48 and 24 hours. Then for measuring TNF-α and IFNγ release level, ELISA method was used.
Results: Garlic extract can reduce the amount of TNF-α secretion from cells mononuclear, although the timing and concentration of the extract had no effect on the results. Moreover, garlic extract had no effect on the secretion of IFNγ.
Conclusion: Using garlic extract can be adopted therapeutic strategies aimed at adipose tissue inflammation and insulin resistance that is useful for the prevention and treatment of type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
Background: the present study aims at investigating the effect of Stress coping techniques and self-regulation strategies on the blood glucose level of diabetic patients.
Methods: the research method was experimentally pretest – posttest with control group. this purpose, out of all those patients who had referred to the Diabetes Center of Bushehr City, 45 diabetic patients were selected randomly in two experiment groups (each with 15 patients) and one control group (with 15 patients) by purposeful sampling method with random replacement. The experimental groups were trained by the Stress coping techniques and self-regulation strategies in eight 90-minute sessions. In this study, the Accu-Chek Active Blood Glucose Meter was used to measure the blood glucose level. Data were analyzed by SPSS V.25. The follow-up phase was also carried out two months after the medical intervention.
Results: the training in two ways of stress coping and self-regulation strategies has reduced the level of blood glucose among the diabetic patients (P = 0.0001) of which the impact has remained been stable over the time (P < 0.05). There is also a significant difference in the effect of the Stress coping techniques and self-regulation strategies on the blood glucose level of diabetic patients (P < 0.05) such that training the Stress coping techniques has more impact on reduction of blood glucose level of diabetic patients.
Conclusion: results show that training the Stress coping techniques and self-regulation strategies can significantly reduce the blood glucose level of diabetic patients and treat the diabetes effectively.
