Article Abstract
Objective: To investigate the association between mean blood glucose (MBG) and glucose variability (GV) during hospitalization, and adverse in-hospital outcomes for patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).
Methods: This is a retrospective cohort study and conducted in 2 tertiary hospitals in Beijing, China. All data were collected from the medical records concerning ACS patients admitted to the hospital between January 2003 to December 2006. Hyperglycemia was related to clinical outcomes (including major adverse cardiovascular events [MACEs] and in-hospital death) using coefficient of variation of blood glucose (GluCV) or mean blood glucose (MBG). Total cohort was stratified by GluCV or MBG quartiles. Diabetic and non-diabetic subgroups were then separately analyzed. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate the independent risk factor of in-hospital death.
Results: A total of 1756 cases were enrolled in this study. For total cohort or non-diabetic cohort, prevalence of adverse outcomes was higher in patients with higher MBG or GluCV (p for trend <0.001). For diabetic ACS patients, MACEs were found more common in MBG or GluCV quartiles (p for trend <0.001), in-hospital mortality increased across MBG (p for trend <0.001), or GluCV quartiles (p for trend=0.004). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that GluCV (odds ratio: 1.29) was a stronger predictor of in-hospital death than MBG (odds ratios: 1.20).
Conclusion: The GluCV is a better discriminator of in-hospital mortality than MBG in ACS patients.

Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is an autoimmune disorder in which autoantibodies cause the immune system to attack and destroy pancreatic β-cells, leading to insufficient insulin production and impaired blood glucose control. T follicular helper (Tfh) cells are recognized as a group of CD4 T cells that help B cells to produce high-affinity antibodies. Our previous research found that oxymatrine (OMT) exhibits excellent immunomodulatory properties on Tfh cells in autoimmune diseases.

Background: The widely-used anthropometric indices, such as body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC), have limitations in their use as indicators of body composition. Recent studies proposed weight-adjusted waist index (WWI=WC/√(body weight)) as an alternative index for body composition but it is unclear whether WWI reflects body composition in different racial/ethnic groups.
Objective: We examined the associations of WWI, BMI, and WC with dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA)-measured body composition, biomarkers (fasting blood glucose, HDL-cholestrol, LDL-cholestrol, triglyceride), and handgrip strength.

Aims: Low-carbohydrate diets (LCDs) have emerged as a potential dietary intervention for managing glycemic control, but their effectiveness across different cultural contexts remains unclear. To evaluate the efficacy of LCDs in managing type 2 diabetes, with attention to cultural context, and to clarify how variability in carbohydrate definitions affects interpretation.
Methods: We searched PubMed, Embase, and Scopus from inception to 1 August 2024 for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) ≥ 12 weeks in adults with type 2 diabetes.

The non-insulin-based metabolic score for insulin resistance (METS-IR) is a recently developed index aimed at being a practical and efficient alternative biomarker of insulin resistance (IR). This study aimed to investigate the association between METS-IR in euthyroid women in the first trimester of pregnancy and pregnancy outcomes. A total of 1810 participants who gave birth at Fujian Maternity and Child Health Hospital from November 2018 to November 2019 were included in this study.

Background: Contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CIAKI) is the third cause of hospital-acquired acute kidney injury and diabetes mellitus (DM) was identified as a risk factor for CIAKI. However, the molecular mechanism underlying DM-CIAKI remains unclear, which needs further investigation.
Methods: DM-CIAKI models of mice and cells were established.
