Article Abstract
Prediabetes consists of the intermediary stage between normal glucose regulation and overt diabetes mellitus and develops when blood glucose levels are higher than normal but not high enough to confirm a type 2 diabetes mellitus diagnosis (T2DM). Recent evidence suggests that probiotics could be promising approaches to improve this state. In this study, we performed a systematic review to compile the results of clinical trials investigating the effects of pro-/pre-/synbiotics on prediabetes subjects from 2010 to 2020. The article search was carried out in Medline, Embase, Scopus, Web of Science, The Cochrane Library, Clinical trials.gov, ProQuest, Open Grey, and Google Scholar. Search filters were developed using 2 parameters: "prestate diabetes" and "probiotics." Of the 418 studies that were screened, 15 original articles reached the inclusion criteria. Pooling data from these trials showed positive and significant effects of probiotics in the reduction of hyperglycemia, insulin concentration levels, lipid profile, and BMI (Body mass index). Administration of probiotics may provide beneficial and healthful effects in the clinical management of patients with prediabetes and metabolic syndrome. Different probiotics compositions have shown beneficial and noticeable effects on glucose homeostasis, lipid profiles, BMI, and inflammatory markers in subjects with prediabetes, metabolic syndrome, and healthy individuals and could be advantageous in recomposing the gut microbiota back into the normal state during the prediabetic state.

Study of Thyroid Function Tests and Inflammatory Markers (White Blood Cell Count and High-sensitivity C-reactive Protein) in Prediabetic Patients at Tertiary Care Center.

Background: Prediabetes represents a transitional state in glucose metabolism with an increasing global and national prevalence, particularly in India. Recent evidence suggests that both thyroid dysfunction and chronic low-grade inflammation may play pivotal roles in the progression of prediabetes to overt Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Thyroid hormones regulate glucose metabolism, while inflammatory markers such as white blood cell (WBC) count and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) are indicators of systemic inflammation often elevated in metabolic disorders.

Objective: This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to report the effectiveness of DTx interventions in the management of patients with type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, and prediabetes.
Methods: Data sources, including Web of Science, MEDLINE, Embase, and the Cochrane Library, were searched from inception to July 30, 2023.
Individual and Comorbid Influences of Chronic Stress and a Western Diet on Allostatic Loads and Cardiac Resilience, Adaptation and Proteome Profiles in Male Mice.

Mechanisms underlying cardiovascular, affective, and metabolic (CAM) multimorbidity are incompletely defined. We assessed how two risk factors-chronic stress (CS) and a Western diet (WD)-interact to influence cardiovascular function, resilience, adaptability, and allostatic load (AL); explore pathway involvement; and examine relationships with behavioral, metabolic, and systemic AL. Male C57Bl/6 mice (8 weeks old, n = 64) consumed a control (CD) or WD (12%-65%-23% or 32%-57%-11% calories from fat-carbohydrate-protein) for 17 weeks, with half subjected to 2 h daily restraint stress over the final 2 weeks (CD + CS and WD + CS).

Background And Objective: Combining natural compounds with conventional drugs is an emerging strategy to improve the management of type 2 diabetes and its precursor, prediabetes. While metformin effectively lowers blood glucose and improves insulin sensitivity, it may cause side effects or lose efficacy over time. Natural agents, particularly polyphenols, are being explored as adjunct therapies to enhance glycemic control, mitigate adverse effects, and slow disease progression.

Aims: To validate the effectiveness of intensive glycemic control in preventing acute kidney injury (AKI) among patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and prediabetes.
Methods: This investigation employed data from the Prospective Registry of the Current Status of Care for Patients with CAD database. Glycemic control was evaluated using the time-weighted average glucose (TWAG) and the glucose coefficient of variation (CV) for each participant.
