Background: Regardless of the cause, type 2 diabetes is a frequent consequence of total hepatic illnesses, particularly when they are progressive. Clinical and experimental findings do, however, point to an immediate involvement of HCV in the disruption of glucose metabolism. Objective: This review aims to assess the connection among hepatitis C virus infection and T2DM (type 2 Diabetic Mellitus). Material and methods: According to cross-sectional and longitudinal studies, insulin resistance (IR) and T2D are more likely to develop in people with chronic HCV infection. Results: Although the evidence currently available should be seen as preliminary, it appears that this virus affects glucose metabolism via cellular mechanisms associated with host's innate immune response. Furthermore, epidemiological research has shown that people with T2D may also be more likely to have negative effects from their HCV infection. Both IR and T2D lessen the early and persistent virological respons...

Introduction Job stress is increasingly becoming a recognized occupational hazard in the today’s world. Previous researchers have worked to explore the causes and consequences of the job strain and called it as a costly problem (Sauter & Murphy,1995). Immense amount of literature is available on the job stress regarding the corporate world employees.

With the growing evidence, universities no longer provide low stress environment that they once used to did. Researches conducted on the occupational stress of the educators and their possible factors found that Stress within the teaching is considerable and have far-reaching consequences for the entire education system. ( Wiggins. T,1983 , Milstein & Farkas, 1988)...
