Article Abstract

Objective: The aim of study is to re-evaluate the risk-benefits of intensive glycemic control in the context of multi-factorial intervention in adults with T2D.

Methods: We searched Ovid MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane, and CINHAL for randomized control trials comparing standard glucose targets to intensive glucose targets with pre-specified HbAlevels. Subgroup analysis was also performed to account for the inclusion of glucose only versus multi-factorial intervention trials. Results are reported as risk ratio (RR) and 95% confidence interval (CI).

Results: Fifty-seven publications including 19 trials were included. Compared to conventional glycemic control, intensive glycemic control decreased the risk of non-fatal myocardial infarction (0.8, 0.7-0.91), macroalbuminuria (0.72, 0.5--0.87), microalbuminuria (0.67, 0.52-0.85), major amputation (0.6, 0.38-0.96), retinopathy (0.75 ,0.63-0.9), and nephropathy (0.78, 0.63-0.97). The risk of hypoglycemia increased with intensive glycemic control than conventional treatment (2.04, 1.34-3.1). No reduction in all-cause or cardiovascular mortality was observed. However, in the context of multifactorial intervention, intensive glucose control was associated with a significant reduction in all-cause mortality (0.74, 0.57-0.95).

Conclusion: Targeting HbA levels should be individualized based on the clinical status, balancing risks and benefits and potential risk for developing these complications among people with T2D.

To date, the closed-loop system represents the best commercialized management of type 1 diabetes. However, mealtimes still require carbohydrate estimation and are often associated with postprandial hyperglycemia which may contribute to poor metabolic control and long -term complications. A multicentre, prospective, non-interventional clinical trial was designed to determine the effectiveness of a novel algorithm to predict changes in blood glucose levels two hours after a usual meal.

Risk factors for coronary in-stent restenosis in Moroccan patients: a retrospective case-control study.

In-stent restenosis remains a significant challenge in interventional cardiology despite technological advancements. This retrospective case-control study conducted at the University Hospital Center Ibn Rochd in Casablanca (2020-2023) examined risk factors associated with coronary in-stent restenosis in 68 patients equally distributed between restenosis and no-restenosis groups. Diabetes emerged as a powerful predictor of restenosis (RR=4.

Introduction: This post hoc analysis of an A Toujeo Observational Study (ATOS) aims to evaluate the real-world effectiveness and safety of insulin glargine 300 U/ml (Gla-300) in high-risk subgroups of insulin-naïve people with type 2 diabetes (PwT2D) from multiple geographical regions (Asia, the Middle East, North Africa, Latin America, and Eastern Europe).

Methods: In these post hoc analyses of ATOS, a real-world, 12-month, prospective study included 4422 insulin-naïve adults (age ≥ 18 years) with type 2 diabetes (T2D) uncontrolled (HbA > 7% and ≤ 11%) on one or more oral antidiabetic drugs (OADs) who initiated Gla-300 treatment as per routine practice. Primary and secondary endpoints were studied according to renal impairment (RI) status (without or with) and age group ( View Article and Find Full Text PDF

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by persistent hyperglycemia and associated with severe complications, including cardiovascular diseases, neuropathy, nephropathy, and retinopathy. Although synthetic antidiabetic drugs are available, the side effects and limited long-term effectiveness of these medications highlight the urgent need for safer, more potent alternative therapies.

Low-protein Calorie-restriction Mitigates Diabetic Mice Kidney Injury via the Gut-Kidney Axis.

Int J Vitam Nutr Res

Department of Endocrinology, Affiliated Hospital of Integrated Chinese and Western Medicine, Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine, 210028 Nanjing, Jiangsu, China.

Background: Dietary interventions have exhibited promise in restoring microbial balance in chronic kidney disease. A low-protein calorie-restricted diet can reduce kidney injury in diabetic rodents. However, whether the renoprotective effects of this dietary intervention in murine diabetic kidney disease models are linked to gut microbiota modulation remains to be determined.
