The Institutional Animal Ethics Committee approved the study (IAEC). A single oral dose of &lt;em&gt;Salvia officinalis&lt;/em&gt; hydroalcoholic root extract (800, 1600, and 3200 mg/kg) was administered, and the subjects were monitored for 14 days. Animals were sacrificed on the fifteenth day, and body weight, haematological, and serum hepatic biochemical parameters were assessed and compared to the standard group. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt;Groups treated with &lt;em&gt;Salvia officinalis&lt;/em&gt; showed no mortality or discernible alterations. The findings show that Wistar rats did not experience appreciable harmful effects from administering hydroalcoholic root extract from the &lt;em&gt;Salvia officinalis&lt;/em&gt; plant. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions:&lt;/strong&gt; The extract can be utilized safely for therapeutic use in pharmaceutical formulations.&lt;/p&gt;

The present study investigates the role of inflammatory markers, including TNF-alpha and IL-6, and metabolic hormones such as adiponectin and leptin, in individuals with T2DM. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; A total of 147 participants diagnosed with T2DM were included in the study. Clinical and biochemical parameters, including fasting blood sugar (FBS), glycated hemoglobin (HbA1C), adiponectin, leptin, TNF-alpha, and IL-6, were measured. Descriptive statistics and correlation analysis were performed to determine associations between inflammatory markers and metabolic dysregulation.&lt;strong&gt; Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The mean age of participants was &lt;strong&gt;42.63 ± 6.38 &lt;/strong&gt;years, and the average BMI was &lt;strong&gt;28.38 ± 2.25 kg/m²&lt;/strong&gt;. FBS and HbA1C levels were &lt;strong&gt;175.72 ± 61.61 mg/dL&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;7.26 ± 0.94%,&lt;/strong&gt; respectively. The mean adiponectin and leptin levels were &lt;strong&gt;4.71 ± 1.75 μg/mL&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;20.58 ± 5.19 ng/mL&lt;/strong&gt;, respectively. TNF-alpha and IL-6 levels averaged &lt;strong&gt;132.00 ± 9.45 pg/mL&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;33.52 ± 14.55 pg/mL&lt;/strong&gt;, respectively. Correlation analysis indicated an inverse relationship between adiponectin and BMI, while leptin was positively correlated with BMI and insulin levels. Elevated TNFalpha and IL-6 levels were associated with increased HbA1C and fasting blood glucose. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;This study highlights the significant role of inflammatory markers in metabolic dysregulation among T2DM patients. Elevated TNF-alpha and IL-6 levels reinforce the link between chronic inflammation and impaired glucose metabolism. These findings underscore the need for anti-inflammatory strategies in diabetes management.&lt;/p&gt;
