ABSTRACT
Objective: The purpose of this study was to examine the risk assessment of developing type 2 diabetes mellitus in patient on antihypertensive medication.

Material & Method: In the present study total 30 patient with essential hypertension of both sex with mean age (48.6±0.8313) were recruited as per the inclusion criteria. Patients were segregated on the behalf of therapy they were using. 22 patients were on Losartan+HCTZ therapy and 8 patients were on Atenolol therapy.

Result: After six month of antihypertensive therapy Atenolol group showing a significant difference in their blood glucose (0.0014) whereas in Losartan+HCTZ group significant difference was not observed (0.1542). Patients of Atenolol group when compared with patient of Losartan+HCTZ group a significant difference was observed in the serum cholesterol level (0.0290).

Conclusion: We found that the use of β-blocker was independently associated with increased risk of type 2 diabetes. So increase in blood glucose in the Atenolol group patient revealed a significant association between use of Atenolol therapy and metabolic dysfunction whereas in Losartan+HCTZ group significant increase in blood glucose was not observed and from these we can conclude therapy with Losartan+HCTZ therapy not associated with metabolic dysfunction.

Scientists have found for the first time that the building blocks of a protein can be assembled by another protein and without genetic instructions. The findings defy textbook science which says DNA spells out the instructions for making proteins, tiny machines that do much of the work in our body's cells.

In a surprising discovery, scientists have found that fat cells below the skin help protect us from bacteria.

Researchers at the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine and colleagues have found that dermal fat cells, known as adipocytes, produce antimicrobial peptides that help fend off invading bacteria and other pathogens.
