Abstract (2. Language): 
Ojective: The prevalence of diabetes mellitus, a chronic progressive disease, is rising seriously. Rosiglitasone from the thiazolidinedion group is an oral antidiabetic extensively used in the treatment of type 2 DM. In this study we aimed to examine the effects of Rosiglitasone treatment on homocysteine and leptin levels. Material and method: The study included 20 voluntary patients (15 female and 5 male; mean age 51±12 years; and mean body mass index 28±5 kg/m2) who were diagnosed as type 2 DM and used Metformin, but whose blood glucose could not be regulated (high fasting blood glucose (FBG), postprandial blood glucose (PBG) and HbA1c). 4 mg/day Rosiglitasone was added to Metformin (2 x 850 mg -3 x 850 mg), which was used for treatment. FBG, PBG, HbA1c, serum lipid levels, homocysteine and leptin levels of the cases were determined before and at the end of 12-week treatment period. Results: At the end of 12-week treatment, FBG fell from 176±68 to 147±39 mg/dl (p<0.05), PBG from 224±56 to 182±46 mg/dl (p<0.05), and HbA1c from 8.7±2% to 7.6±1% (p<0.05), all the decreases being statistically significant. T. Chol., TG, LDL, VLDL and HDL levels increased, but the increase was not statistically significant. Hcy level fell from mean 10.3±2.6 to 5.14±2.7 |imol/L (p<0.05), while leptin level rose from mean 10.8±7 to 15.38±8 ng/ml (p<0.05). No changes were observed in total protein, albumin, AST and ALT levels. Conclusion: Rosiglitasone treatment brought about significant changes in Hcy and leptin levels, besides regulating the blood sugar. ©2004, Fırat Üniversitesi, Tıp Fakültesi

Amaç: Kronik ilerleyici bir hastalık olan Diabetes Mellitus'un prevalansı ciddi anlamda artmaktadır. Thiazolidinedion grubunda yer alan Rosiglitazon tip 2 DM'un tedavisinde yaygın olarak kullanılan oral antidiyabetiktir. Bu çalışmada Rosiglitazon tedavisinin homosistein ve leptin düzeyine etkilerini incelemeyi amaçladık. Gereç ve Yöntem: Tip 2 DM tanılı ve metformin kullanan ancak kan şekeri regülasyonu sağlanamayan (Açlık Kan Şekeri (AKŞ), Tokluk Kan Şekeri (TKŞ) ve HbAlc yüksek) 20 gönüllü hasta ( 5 erkek, 15 kadın, ortalama yaş 51±12 yıl ve ortalama vücut kitle indeksi 28±5 Kg/m2 olan) çalışmaya alındı. Hastaların tedavide kullandıkları metformine (2 X 850 mg - 3 X 850 mgr) 4 mg/gün roziglitazon ilave edildi. Olgularda tedavi öncesi ve 12 haftalık tedavi sonrası; AKŞ, TKŞ, HbAlc, serum lipit, homosistein ve leptin düzeyleri bakıldı. Bulgular: 12 haftalık tedavi sonrası; AKŞ 176±68 mg/dl'den, 147±39 mg/dl'ye (P<0,05), TKŞ 'i 224±56 mg/dl'den 182±46 mg/dl'ye (P<0,05), HbAlc %8.7±2 'den %7.6±1'e geriledi (p<0,05) ve istatistiksel olarak anlam taşımaktaydı. T. Kol, TG, LDL, VLDL ve HDL düzeyleri istatistiksel olarak anlamlı olmamak üzere arttı. Hcy düzeyi ortalama 10,3±2,6 |imol/L'den 5,14±2,7 |imol/L'ye geriledi (p<0,05). Leptin düzeyi ortalama 10,8±7 ng/ml'den 15,38±8 ng/ml'ye yükseldi (p<0,05). Total protein, albümin, AST ve ALT düzeyinde herhangi bir değişiklik gözlenmedi. Sonuç: Rosiglitazon tedavisi sonrasında kan şekeri regülasyonuna ilaveten homosistein ve leptin düzeylerinde anlamlı değişiklikler gözlenmiştir. ©2004, Fırat Üniversitesi, Tıp Fakültesi
