Abstract
BACKGROUND Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a significant risk factor for coronary artery disease (CAD). Leptin polymorphism is known to be associated with obesity and Type 2 diabetes mellitus. This study aimed to investigate the possible links between a specific leptin polymorphism (LEP 2548G/A) and plasma leptin level with the risk of Type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with CAD in the Iranian population for the first time. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 150 patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus and CAD were included in the study, along with 150 nondiabetic controls. Blood samples were collected from participants. Biochemical analysis and genotyping were done using the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method. The plasma leptin level was higher in females in the case group. There was a positive correlation between females and obese diabetic subjects (P < 0.001). Regarding the single-nucleotide polymorphism in the leptin gene promoter, we found that the variant genotypes AA and GG were associated with a twofold (OR = 2.09, P = 0.006) and fourfold (OR = 4.2, P = 0.017) increased risk of Type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with CAD, respectively. The GG genotype was also associated with obesity and higher plasma leptin level in the case group (OR = 4.92, P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Leptin G2548A and plasma leptin levels may contribute to Type 2 diabetes with CAD in the Iranian population.

Association between urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio within the normal range and continuous glucose monitoring-derived metrics in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes. Diabetol Metab Syndr 2025; 17:173. [PMID: 40414873 DOI: 10.1186/s13098-025-01749-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/15/2025] [Accepted: 05/17/2025] [Indexed: 05/27/2025] Open
Abstract
AIMS Albuminuria within the normal range may predict an increased risk of subsequent nephropathy in type 1 diabetes (T1D). The role of sustained hyperglycaemia in the development of nephropathy is well-known. The relationship between albuminuria within the normal range and parameters of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in childhood has not yet been investigated. The aim of the present study was to analyze this relationship in young T1D patients. METHODS A total of 54 normoalbuminuric, normotensive, real time CGM user pubertal children and adolescents with T1D were recruited for this study. Patients with medium to high normal (1.0-2.9 mg/mmol; n = 18) and those with low normal (< 1.0 mg/mmol; n = 36) urinary albumin-to-creatinin ratio (UACR) were compared regarding CGM metrics data. Relationships of UACR with clinical variables and CGM-derived metrics were analysed by multiple logistic regression. RESULTS Time in range (TIR) was lower in medium to high normal UACR patients than in low normal UACR patients (mean ± SD: 58.2 ± 8.4% vs. 64.5 ± 10.1%, p = 0.0199). Patients with medium to high normal UACR had a higher coefficient of variation for mean glucose (CV) than those with low normal UACR (42.4 ± 6.0% vs. 38.0 ± 6.1%, p = 0.0163). UACR was related to TIR (r=-0.55, p = 0.02), to CV (r=-0.51, p = 0.04) and to mean glucose (MG) (r=-0.48, p = 0.05). TIR, CV and puberty proved to be independently predictive for medium to high normal UACR [adjusted RR (95% CI): 0.70 (0.58-0.92), p = 0.0231; 1.28 (1.02-1.67), p = 0.0222; 1.19 (1.10-1.36), p = 0.0321, respectively]. CONCLUSION The duration of the blood glucose level within the target range and the extent of its fluctuation may contribute to the early increase in albumin excretion within the normal range, which may play a role in the development of later complications of childhood T1D.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) measures glucose levels every 1 to 15 minutes and is widely used in clinical and research contexts. Statistical packages and algorithms reduce the time-consuming and error-prone process of manually calculating CGM metrics and contribute to standardizing CGM metrics defined by international consensus. The aim of this systematic review is to summarize existing data on (1) statistical packages for retrospective CGM data analysis and (2) statistical algorithms for retrospective CGM analysis not available in these statistical packages. METHODS A systematic literature search in PubMed and EMBASE was conducted on September 19, 2023. We also searched Google Scholar and Google Search until October 12, 2023 as sources of gray literature and performed reference checks of the included literature. Articles in English and Danish were included. This systematic review is registered with PROSPERO (CRD42022378163). RESULTS A total of 8731 references were screened and 46 references were included. We identified 23 statistical packages for the analysis of CGM data. The statistical packages could calculate many metrics of the 2022 CGM consensus and non-consensus CGM metrics, and 22/23 (96%) statistical packages were freely available. Also, 23 statistical algorithms were identified. The statistical algorithms could be divided into three groups based on content: (1) CGM data reduction (eg, clustering of CGM data), (2) composite CGM outcomes, and (3) other CGM metrics. CONCLUSION This systematic review provides detailed tabular and textual up-to-date descriptions of the contents of statistical packages and statistical algorithms for retrospective analysis of CGM data.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The mean amplitude of glycemic excursion (MAGE) is widely recognized for representing glucose fluctuation extent, its implications in cerebral small vessel disease remain unclear. This study aims to investigate the correlation between MAGE and white matter hyperintensity (WMH). MATERIALS AND METHODS This cross-sectional study, spanning from March 2021 to October 2022, included 212 type 2 diabetic patients aged between 50 and 80. Participants underwent MRI scans and continuous glucose monitoring. Clinical and laboratory data were compiled for analysis. WMH volumes were evaluated using both the Fazekas visual rating scale and a quantitative approach. Based on Fazekas scores, patients were categorized into low level of WMH (L-WMH, n = 88) and high level of WMH (H-WMH, n = 124) groups. RESULTS MAGE levels were significantly higher in the H-WMH group compared to the L-WMH group. Time below range [TBR< 3.9] emerged as an independent risk factor for elevated MAGE. Both MAGE and TBR< 3.9 independently correlated with an increased WMH burden. Additionally, MAGE was identified as a partial mediator in the relationship between TBR< 3.9 and WMH volumes. CONCLUSION MAGE and hypoglycemia exhibit independent associations with WMH in diabetic patients. Moreover, hypoglycemia may indirectly influence WMH progression through the augmentation of glucose fluctuations.

Stress hyperglycemia ratio as an important predictive indicator for severe disturbance of consciousness and all-cause mortality in critically ill patients with cerebral infarction: a retrospective study using the MIMIC-IV database. Eur J Med Res 2025; 30:53. [PMID: 39865270 PMCID: PMC11771033 DOI: 10.1186/s40001-025-02309-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/07/2024] [Accepted: 01/16/2025] [Indexed: 01/28/2025] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) has been linked to prognosis of cerebrovascular diseases. Nevertheless, the association between SHR and severe disturbance of consciousness (DC) and mortality among patients with cerebral infarction remains explored. This study seeks to assess the predictive potential of SHR for severe DC and mortality among patients with cerebral infarction. METHODS We identified individuals diagnosed with cerebral infarction within the MIMIC-IV database. We employed logistic regression to examine the correlation between the SHR index and the severity of patients' consciousness disturbance, as well as in-hospital mortality. Furthermore, we employed restricted cubic spline curves to explore potential non-linear relationships between the SHR index and outcome measures. To assess the predictive performance of the SHR index and admission blood sugar level on outcome indicators, we compared receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. RESULTS A non-linear relationship existed between SHR and the risk of severe disturbance of consciousness, while there was a linear relationship with all-cause mortality. The AUC value for predicting severe disturbance of consciousness by the SHR index is 0.5419 (95% CI: 0.5188-0.5661). The AUC value for predicting in-hospital mortality based on the SHR index is 0.6264 (95% CI: 0.5881-0.6662). It is superior to single admission blood sugar level. In addition, SHR has an incremental impact on evaluating various diseases in predicting severe disturbance of consciousness and all-cause mortality in critically ill patients with cerebral infarction. CONCLUSIONS SHR is an important predictive indicator for severe disturbance of consciousness and all-cause mortality of patients with cerebral infarction.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the efficacy and safety of URLi (ultra rapid lispro insulin) compared to insulin lispro as bolus insulin with basal insulin using CGM in the individuals with type 2 diabetes(T2D) in China. METHODS This was a double-blind, randomized, parallel, prospective, phase 3 study. Subjects with uncontrolled T2D were recruited and randomized 1:2 into the insulin lispro and URLi groups. Subjects received a consistent basal insulin regimen during the study and self-administered insulin lispro or URLi before each meal throughout the treatment period. Subjects underwent a 3-day continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) at the baseline and endpoint respectively, and then CGM data were analyzed. The primary endpoint was to compare the difference in postprandial glucose (PPG) control using CGM between the two groups. RESULTS A total of 57 subjects with T2D completed the study. Our CGM data showed that postprandial glucose excursions after breakfast (BPPGE) in the URLi group was lower than that in the insulin lispro group (1.59 ± 1.57 mmol/L vs 2.51 ± 1.73 mmol/L, p = 0.046). 1-hour PPG was observed to decrease more in the URLi group than that in the insulin lispro group (-1.37 ± 3.28 mmol/L vs 0.24 ± 2.58 mmol/L, p = 0.047). 2-hour PPG was observed to decrease more in the URLi group than that in the insulin lispro group (-1.12 ± 4.00 mmol/L vs 1.22 ± 2.90 mmol/L, p = 0.021). The mean HbA1c level decreased by 1.1% in the URLi group and 0.99% in the insulin lispro group, with no treatment difference (p = 0.642). In the CGM profile, TBR was not significantly different between the two groups (p = 0.743). The weight gain also did not differ between the two groups (p = 0.303). CONCLUSION URLi can control breakfast PPG better than insulin lispro in adults with T2D in China, while it is non-inferior in improving HbA1c. The incidence of hypoglycemic and weight gain were similar between the two groups.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Given the increasing attention to glycemic variability (GV) and its potential implications for cardiovascular outcomes. This study aimed to explore the impact of acute GV on short-term outcomes in Chinese patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). METHODS This study enrolled 7510 consecutive patients diagnosed with acute STEMI from 274 centers in China. GV was assessed using the coefficient of variation of blood glucose levels. Patients were categorized into three groups according to GV tertiles (GV1, GV2, and GV3). The primary outcome was 30-day all-cause death, and the secondary outcome was major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs). Cox regression analyses were conducted to determine the independent correlation between GV and the outcomes. RESULTS A total of 7136 patients with STEMI were included. During 30-days follow-up, there was a significant increase in the incidence of all-cause death and MACEs with higher GV tertiles. The 30-days mortality rates were 7.4% for GV1, 8.7% for GV2 and 9.4% for GV3 (p = 0.004), while the MACEs incidence rates was 11.3%, 13.8% and 15.8% for the GV1, GV2 and GV3 groups respectively (p < 0.001). High GV levels during hospitalization were significantly associated with an increased risk of 30-day all-cause mortality and MACEs. When analyzed as a continuous variable, GV was independently associated with a higher risk of all-cause mortality (hazard ratio [HR] 1.679, 95% confidence Interval [CI] 1.005-2.804) and MACEs (HR 2.064, 95% CI 1.386-3.074). Additionally, when analyzed as categorical variables, the GV3 group was found to predict an increased risk of MACEs, irrespective of the presence of diabetes mellitus (DM). CONCLUSION Our study findings indicate that a high GV during hospitalization was significantly associated with an increased risk of 30-day all-cause mortality and MACE in Chinese patients with STEMI. Moreover, acute GV emerged as an independent predictor of increased MACEs risk, regardless of DM status.

Abstract
PURPOSE There is little information on factors that influence the glycemic variability (GV) during the nocturnal and diurnal periods. We aimed to examine the relationship between clinical factors and GV during these two periods. METHODS This cross-sectional study included 134 patients with type 2 diabetes. 24-h changes in blood glucose were recorded by a continuous glucose monitoring system. Nocturnal and diurnal GV were assessed by standard deviation of blood glucose (SDBG), coefficient of variation (CV), and mean amplitude of glycemic excursions (MAGE), respectively. Robust regression analyses were performed to identify the factors associated with GV. Restricted cubic splines were used to determine dose-response relationship. RESULTS During the nocturnal period, age and glycemic level at 12:00 A.M. were positively associated with GV, whereas alanine aminotransferase was negatively associated with GV. During the diurnal period, homeostatic model assessment 2-insulin sensitivity (HOMA2-S) was positively associated with GV, whereas insulin secretion-sensitivity index-2 (ISSI2) was negatively associated with GV. Additionally, we found a J-shape association between the glycemic level at 12:00 A.M. and MAGE, with 9.0 mmol/L blood glucose level as a cutoff point. Similar nonlinear associations were found between ISSI2 and SDBG, and between ISSI2 and MAGE, with ISSI2 value of 175 as a cutoff point. CONCLUSION Factors associated with GV were different between nocturnal and diurnal periods. The cutoff points we found in this study may provide the therapeutic targets for beta-cell function and pre-sleep glycemic level in clinical practice.

Abstract
CONTEXT Sleep disruption is associated with worse glucose metabolic control and altered gut microbiota in animal models. OBJECTIVE We aimed to evaluate the possible links among rapid eye movement (REM) sleep duration, continuous glucose levels, and gut microbiota composition. METHODS This observational, prospective, real-life, cross-sectional case-control study included 118 (60 with obesity), middle-aged (39.1-54.8 years) healthy volunteers recruited at a tertiary hospital. Glucose variability and REM sleep duration were assessed by 10-day continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) (Dexcom G6) and wrist actigraphy (Fitbit Charge 3), respectively. The coefficient of variation (CV), interquartile range (IQR), and SD of glucose variability was assessed and the percentage of time in range (% TIR), at 126-139 mg/dL (TIR2), and 140-199 mg/dL (TIR3) were calculated. Shotgun metagenomics sequencing was applied to study gut microbiota taxonomy and functionality. RESULTS Increased glycemic variability (SD, CV, and IQR) was observed among subjects with obesity in parallel to increased % TIR2 and % TIR3. REM sleep duration was independently associated with % TIR3 (β = -.339; P < .001) and glucose variability (SD, β = -.350; P < .001). Microbial taxa from the Christensenellaceae family (Firmicutes phylum) were positively associated with REM sleep and negatively with CGM levels, while bacteria from Enterobacteriacea family and bacterial functions involved in iron metabolism showed opposite associations. CONCLUSION Decreased REM sleep duration was independently associated with a worse glucose profile. The associations of species from Christensenellaceae and Enterobacteriaceae families with REM sleep duration and continuous glucose values suggest an integrated picture of metabolic health.

A randomized clinical trial comparing low-fat with precision nutrition-based diets for weight loss: impact on glycemic variability and HbA1c. Am J Clin Nutr 2023; 118:443-451. [PMID: 37236549 PMCID: PMC10447469 DOI: 10.1016/j.ajcnut.2023.05.026] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/09/2022] [Revised: 05/16/2023] [Accepted: 05/23/2023] [Indexed: 05/28/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent studies have demonstrated considerable interindividual variability in postprandial glucose response (PPGR) to the same foods, suggesting the need for more precise methods for predicting and controlling PPGR. In the Personal Nutrition Project, the investigators tested a precision nutrition algorithm for predicting an individual's PPGR. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to compare changes in glycemic variability (GV) and HbA1c in 2 calorie-restricted weight loss diets in adults with prediabetes or moderately controlled type 2 diabetes (T2D), which were tertiary outcomes of the Personal Diet Study. METHODS The Personal Diet Study was a randomized clinical trial to compare a 1-size-fits-all low-fat diet (hereafter, standardized) with a personalized diet (hereafter, personalized). Both groups received behavioral weight loss counseling and were instructed to self-monitor diets using a smartphone application. The personalized arm received personalized feedback through the application to reduce their PPGR. Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) data were collected at baseline, 3 mo and 6 mo. Changes in mean amplitude of glycemic excursions (MAGEs) and HbA1c at 6 mo were assessed. We performed an intention-to-treat analysis using linear mixed regressions. RESULTS We included 156 participants [66.5% women, 55.7% White, 24.1% Black, mean age 59.1 y (standard deviation (SD) = 10.7 y)] in these analyses (standardized = 75, personalized = 81). MAGE decreased by 0.83 mg/dL per month for standardized (95% CI: 0.21, 1.46 mg/dL; P = 0.009) and 0.79 mg/dL per month for personalized (95% CI: 0.19, 1.39 mg/dL; P = 0.010) diet, with no between-group differences (P = 0.92). Trends were similar for HbA1c values. CONCLUSIONS Personalized diet did not result in an increased reduction in GV or HbA1c in patients with prediabetes and moderately controlled T2D, compared with a standardized diet. Additional subgroup analyses may help to identify patients who are more likely to benefit from this personalized intervention. This trial was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT03336411.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prevalence of overweight and obesity in type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) individuals is increasing. Overweight people with T1DM may be insulin resistant. Glycaemic variability (GV) is an emerging measure of glycaemic control. The aim of this study is to investigate whether metformin, in adjunct to insulin, would have any favourable effect on GV. METHODS This was a multi-centre, open-label randomised crossover study. Twenty-four overweight/obese T1DM patients aged ⩾18 years old with HbA1c ⩾ 7.0% (53 mmol/mol) were recruited and randomised into two study arms. For first 6-week, one arm remained on standard of care (SOC), the other arm received metformin, adjunctive to SOC. After 2-week washout, patients crossed over and continued for another 6 weeks. Glycaemic variability, other glycaemic parameters and metabolic profile were monitored. RESULTS There were significant reduction in metformin group for GV: mean (0.18 ± 1.73 vs -0.95 ± 1.24, p = 0.014), %CV (-15.84 (18.92) vs -19.08 (24.53), p = 0.044), glycemic risk assessment of diabetes equation (-0.69 (3.83) vs -1.61 (3.61), p = 0.047), continuous overlapping net glycaemic action (0.25 ± 1.62 vs -0.85 ± 1.22, p = 0.013), J-index (-0.75 (21.91) vs -7.11 (13.86), p = 0.034), time in range (1.13 ± 14.12% vs 10.83 ± 15.47%, p = 0.032); changes of systolic blood pressure (2.78 ± 11.19 mmHg vs -4.30 ± 9.81 mmHg, p = 0.027) and total daily dose (TDD) insulin (0.0 (3.33) units vs -2.17 (11.45) units, p = 0.012). Hypoglycaemic episodes were not significant in between groups. CONCLUSION Metformin showed favourable effect on GV in overweight/obese T1DM patients and reduction in systolic blood pressure, TDD insulin, fasting venous glucose and fructosamine.

Abstract
AIMS To update the evidence about the diabetogenic effect of statins. METHODS We searched for randomized-controlled trials reporting the effects of statin therapy on glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and/or homeostatic model insulin resistance (i.e., HOMA-IR) as indexes of diabetes. Studies were classified between the ones testing normal vs individuals with already altered glycemic control (HbA1c ≥ 6.5%; and HOMA-IR ≥ 2.15). Furthermore, studies were separated by statin type and dosage prescribed. Data are presented as mean difference (MD) and 95% confidence intervals. RESULTS A total of 67 studies were included in the analysis (>25,000 individuals). In individuals with altered glycemic control, statins increased HbA1c levels (MD 0.21%, 95% CI 0.16-to-0.25) and HOMA-IR index (MD 0.31, 95% CI 0.24-to-0.38). In individuals with normal glycemic control, statin increased HbA1c (MD 1.33%, 95% CI 1.31-to-1.35) and HOMA-IR (MD 0.49, 95% CI 0.41-to-0.58) in comparison to the placebo groups. The dose or type of statins did not modulate the diabetogenic effect. CONCLUSIONS Statins, slightly but significantly raise indexes of diabetes in individuals with adequate or altered glycemic control. The diabetogenic effect does not seem to be influenced by the type or dosage of statin prescribed.

Abstract
AIM To assess whether the beta-cell function of inpatients undergoing antidiabetic treatment influences achieving time in range (TIR) and time above range (TAR) targets. MATERIALS AND METHODS This cross-sectional study included 180 inpatients with type 2 diabetes. TIR and TAR were assessed by a continuous glucose monitoring system, with target achievement defined as TIR more than 70% and TAR less than 25%. Beta-cell function was assessed by the insulin secretion-sensitivity index-2 (ISSI2). RESULTS Following antidiabetic treatment, logistic regression analysis showed that lower ISSI2 was associated with a decreased number of inpatients achieving TIR (OR = 3.10, 95% CI: 1.19-8.06) and TAR (OR = 3.40, 95% CI: 1.35-8.55) targets after adjusting for potential confounders. Similar associations still existed in those participants treated with insulin secretagogues (TIR: OR = 2.91, 95% CI: 0.90-9.36, P = .07; TAR, OR = 3.14, 95% CI: 1.01-9.80) or adequate insulin therapy (TIR: OR = 2.84, 95% CI: 0.91-8.81, P = .07; TAR, OR = 3.24, 95% CI: 1.08-9.67). Furthermore, receiver operating characteristic curves showed that the diagnostic value of the ISSI2 for achieving TIR and TAR targets was 0.73 (95% CI: 0.66-0.80) and 0.71 (95% CI: 0.63-0.79), respectively. CONCLUSIONS Beta-cell function was associated with achieving TIR and TAR targets. Stimulating insulin secretion or exogenous insulin treatment could not overcome the disadvantage of lower beta-cell function on glycaemic control.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Elevated glucose variability may be one mechanism that increases risk for significant psychological and physiological health conditions among individuals with binge-spectrum eating disorders (B-EDs), given the impact of eating disorder (ED) behaviors on blood glucose levels. This study aimed to characterize glucose variability among individuals with B-EDs compared with age-matched, sex-matched, and body mass index-matched controls, and investigate the association between frequency of ED behaviors and glucose variability. METHODS Participants were 52 individuals with B-EDs and 22 controls who wore continuous glucose monitors to measure blood glucose levels and completed ecological momentary assessment surveys to measure ED behaviors for 1 week. Independent samples t-tests compared individuals with B-EDs and controls and multiple linear regression models examined the association between ED behaviors and glucose variability. RESULTS Individuals with B-EDs demonstrated numerically higher glucose variability than controls (t = 1.42, p = .08, d = 0.43), although this difference was not statistically significant. When controlling for covariates, frequency of ED behaviors was significantly, positively associated with glucose variability (t = 3.17, p = .003) with medium effect size (f2 = 0.25). Post hoc analyses indicated that binge eating frequency was significantly associated with glucose variability, while episodes of 5+ hours without eating were not. DISCUSSION Glucose variability among individuals with B-EDs appears to be positively associated with engagement in ED behaviors, particularly binge eating. Glucose variability may be an important mechanism by which adverse health outcomes occur at elevated rates in B-EDs and warrants future study. PUBLIC SIGNIFICANCE This study suggests that some individuals with binge ED and bulimia nervosa may experience elevated glucose variability, a physiological symptom that is linked to a number of adverse health consequences. The degree of elevation in glucose variability is positive associated with frequency of eating disorder behaviors, especially binge eating.

The Effects of Indoxyl Sulfate and Oxidative Stress on the Severity of Peripheral Nerve Dysfunction in Patients with Chronic Kidney Diseases. Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:antiox11122350.

Abstract
Pieces of evidence support the view that the accumulation of uremic toxins enhances oxidative stress and downstream regulation of signaling pathways, contributing to both endothelial microangiography and cell dysfunction. This study is to address the impact of protein-binding uremic toxins on the severity of peripheral nerve function in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Fifty-four patients with CKD were included in the Toronto Clinical Neuropathy Score (TCNS), nerve conduction study (NCS), and laboratory studies including protein-binding uremic toxin (indoxyl sulfate [IS] and p-cresyl sulfate [PCS]), oxidative stress (Thiol and thiobarbituric acid reacting substances [TBARS]), and endothelial dysfunction (serum intercellular adhesion molecule 1 [sICAM-1] and serum vascular adhesion molecule 1 [sVCAM-1]) at enrollment. We used composite amplitude scores (CAS) to analyze the severity of nerve conductions on peripheral nerve function. TCNS and CAS were higher in the diabetic CKD group (p = 0.02 and 0.01, respectively). The NCS revealed the compound muscle action potential of ulnar and peroneal nerves and the sensory nerve action potential of ulnar and sural nerves (p = 0.004, p = 0.004, p = 0.004, and p = 0.001, respectively), which was found to be significantly low in the diabetic group. CAS was significantly correlated with age (r = 0.27, p = 0.04), urine albumin-creatinine ratio (UACR) (r = 0.29, p = 0.046), free-form IS (r = 0.39, p = 0.009), sICAM-1 (r = 0.31, p = 0.02), sVCAM-1 (r = 0.44, p < 0.0001), TBARS (r = 0.35, p = 0.002), and thiols (r = −0.28, p = 0.045). Linear regression revealed that only TBARS and free-form IS were strongly associated with CAS. The mediation analysis shows that the sVCAM-1 level serves as the mediator between higher IS and higher CAS. IS and oxidative stress contribute to the severity of peripheral nerve dysfunction in patients with CKD, and chronic glycemic impairment can worsen the conditions.

Abstract
(1) Background: Standard-of-care lifestyle interventions show insufficient effectiveness for the prevention and treatment of excess weight and its associated cardiometabolic health concerns in adolescents, necessitating more targeted preventative approaches. Anxiety symptoms are common among adolescents, especially girls at risk for excess weight gain, and have been implicated in the onset and maintenance of disinhibited eating. Thus, decreasing elevated anxiety in this subset of adolescent girls may offer a targeted approach to mitigating disinhibited eating and excess weight gain to prevent future cardiometabolic health problems. (2) Methods: The current paper describes the protocol for a multisite pilot and feasibility randomized controlled trial of group cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and group interpersonal psychotherapy (IPT) in N = 40 adolescent girls (age 12-17 years) with elevated anxiety symptoms and body mass index (BMI; kg/m2) ≥ 75th percentile for age/sex. (3) Results: Primary outcomes are multisite feasibility of recruitment, protocol procedures, and data collection, intervention fidelity, retention at follow-ups, and acceptability of interventions and study participation. (4) Conclusions: Findings will inform the protocol for a future fully-powered multisite randomized controlled trial to compare CBT and IPT efficacy for reducing excess weight gain and preventing adverse cardiometabolic trajectories, as well as to evaluate theoretically-informed treatment moderators and mediators.

Prognostic impact of stress hyperglycemia ratio in acute myocardial infarction patients with and without diabetes mellitus. Nutr Metab Cardiovasc Dis 2022; 32:2356-2366. [PMID: 35965248 DOI: 10.1016/j.numecd.2022.07.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2022] [Revised: 07/04/2022] [Accepted: 07/05/2022] [Indexed: 01/08/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) is associated with increased in-hospital morbidity and mortality in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). We aimed to investigate the impact of stress "hyperglycemia" on long-term mortality after AMI in patients with and without diabetes mellitus (DM). METHODS AND RESULTS We included 2089 patients with AMI between February 2014 and March 2018. SHR was measured with the fasting glucose divided by the estimated average glucose derived from glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c). The primary endpoint was all-cause death. Of 2 089 patients (mean age: 65.7 ± 12.4, 76.7% were men) analyzed, 796 (38.1%) had DM. Over a median follow-up of 2.7 years, 141 (6.7%) and 150 (7.2%) all-cause deaths occurred in the diabetic and nondiabetic cohorts, respectively. Compared with participants with low SHR (<1.24 in DM; <1.14 in non-DM), the hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals for those with high SHR (≥1.24 in DM; ≥1.14 in non-DM) for all-cause mortality were 2.23 (1.54-3.23) and 1.79 (1.15-2.78); for cardiovascular mortality were 2.42 (1.63-3.59) and 2.10 (1.32-3.35) in DM and non-DM subjects, respectively. The mortality prediction was improved in the diabetic individuals with the incorporation of SHR into the Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events (GRACE) score, showing an increase in a continuous net reclassification index of 0.184 (95%CI: 0.003-0.365) and an absolute integrated discrimination improvement of 0.014 (95%CI: 0.002-0.025). CONCLUSION The improvement in the prediction of long-term mortality beyond the GRACE score indicates the potential of SHR as a biomarker for post-MI risk stratification among patients with DM.

Abstract
Background China has the largest number of patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM), and it tends to increasingly grow in the future, putting an enormous burden on disease control and prevention in China. While glycemic variability (GV) came to be an important indicator of blood glucose control in diabetic patients, studies suggested that premeal snacks may help blood glucose control, but there are still some problems to be researched. Therefore, we designed this trial to evaluate which kind of premeal snacks would lead to better effects on GV under two diet patterns in pre-diabetes subjects and to evaluate assessments of acceptability and compliance, behavior, and metabolism changes in individuals will be described. Methods and analysis The study is a single-center, open-label, multiparallel group, randomized controlled trial. A total of 32 male and female volunteers will be randomized into 4 groups in a single allocated ratio of soy milk (powder) snack, milk (powder) snack, almonds snack, and placebo control with 250 ml of water taken 30 min before lunch, respectively. The study consists of two intervention periods over 11 days. The first intervention period under habitual diet conditions from D3 to D6 (4 days), during which all subjects are asked to maintain their habitual eating and daily activities similar to the run-in period. The second intervention consists of prelunch snacks with standard meals. We will examine both the effect of GV and various metabolic and behavioral outcomes potentially associated with the interventions. At the end of this study, we will assess the acceptability and maintainability of the intervention through interviews.

Comparison of the Impact of Insulin Degludec U100 and Insulin Glargine U300 on Glycemic Variability and Oxidative Stress in Insulin-Naive Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: Pilot Study for a Randomized Trial. JMIR Form Res 2022; 6:e35655. [PMID: 35802405 PMCID: PMC9308081 DOI: 10.2196/35655] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/12/2021] [Revised: 05/30/2022] [Accepted: 06/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background
There is an ongoing discussion about possible differences between insulin degludec (IDeg-100) and glargine U300 (IGlar-300). There is little data and head-to-head comparison of IDeg-100 and IGlar-300 regarding their simultaneous impact on glycemic variability and oxidative stress in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
Objective
In our randomized, open-label, crossover study, we compared the impact of IDeg-100 and IGlar-300 on glycemic variability and oxidative stress in insulin-naive patients with T2DM.
Methods
We recruited a total of 25 adult patients with T2DM (7 females) whose diabetes was uncontrolled (HbA1c ≥7.5%) on two or more oral glucose-lowering drugs; a total of 22 completed the study. Mean age was 57.3 (SD 6.99) years and duration of diabetes was 9.94 (SD 5.01) years. After the washout period, they were randomized alternately to first receive either IDeg-100 or IGlar-300 along with metformin. Each insulin was administered for 12 weeks and then switched. At the beginning and end of each phase, biochemical and oxidative stress parameters were analyzed. On 3 consecutive days prior to each control point, patients performed a 7-point self-monitoring of blood glucose profile. Oxidative stress was assessed by measuring thiol groups and hydroperoxides (determination of reactive oxygen metabolites test) in serum.
Results
IGlar-300 reduced mean glucose by 0.02-0.13 mmol/L, and IDeg-100 reduced glucose by 0.10-0.16 mmol/L, with no significant difference. The reduction of the coefficient of glucose variation also did not show a statistically significant difference. IGlar-300 increased thiols by 0.08 µmol/L and IDeg-100 increased thiols by 0.15 µmol/L, with no significant difference (P=.07) between them. IGlar-300 reduced hydroperoxides by 0.040 CARR U and IDeg-100 increased hydroperoxides by 0.034 CARR U, but the difference was not significant (P=.12).
Conclusions
The results of our study do not show a significant difference regarding glycemic variability between patients receiving either insulin IDeg-100 or IGlar-300, although IGlar-300 showed greater dispersion of data. No significant difference in oxidative stress was observed. In a larger study, doses of insulins should be higher to achieve significant impact on glycemic parameters and consequently on glycemic variability and oxidative stress.

Abstract
The development and progression of the complications of chronic diabetes mellitus are attributed not only to increased blood glucose levels but also to glycemic variability. Therefore, a deeper understanding of the role of glycemic variability in the development of diabetic complications may provide more insight into targeted clinical treatment strategies in the future. Previously, the mechanisms implicated in glycemic variability-induced diabetic complications have been comprehensively discussed. However, endothelial dysfunction and platelet hyperactivation, which are two newly recognized critical pathogenic factors, have not been fully elucidated yet. In this review, we first evaluate the assessment of glycemic variability and then summarise the roles of endothelial dysfunction and platelet hyperactivation in glycemic variability-induced complications of diabetes, highlighting the molecular mechanisms involved and their interconnections.

Abstract
CONTEXT Although glycated hemoglobin A1c is currently the best parameter used clinically to assess risk for the development of diabetes complications, it does not provide insight into short-term fluctuations in glucose levels. This review summarizes the relationship between continuous glucose monitoring (CGM)-derived metrics of glycemic variability and diabetes-related complications. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION PubMed and Embase databases were searched from January 1, 2010 to August 22, 2020, using the terms type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, diabetes-related microvascular and macrovascular complications, and measures of glycaemic variability. Exclusion criteria were studies that did not use CGM and studies involving participants who were not diabetic, acutely unwell (post stroke, post surgery), pregnant, or using insulin pumps. EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS A total of 1636 records were identified, and 1602 were excluded, leaving 34 publications in the final review. Of the 20 852 total participants, 663 had type 1 diabetes (T1D) and 19 909 had type 2 diabetes (T2D). Glycemic variability and low time in range (TIR) showed associations with all studied microvascular and macrovascular complications of diabetes. Notably, higher TIR was associated with reduced risk of albuminuria, retinopathy, cardiovascular disease mortality, all-cause mortality, and abnormal carotid intima-media thickness. Peripheral neuropathy was predominantly associated with standard deviation of blood glucose levels (SD) and mean amplitude of glycemic excursions (MAGE). CONCLUSION The evidence supports the association between diabetes complications and CGM-derived measures of intraday glycemic variability. TIR emerged as the most consistent measure, supporting its emerging role in clinical practice. More longitudinal studies and trials are required to confirm these associations, particularly for T1D, for which there are limited data.

Abstract
Objective To retrospectively analyze the changes of thyroid function and related factors in critical patients with non-thyroid illness, hoping to find some indicators for the further examination of the thyroid function in the intensive care unit situation. Methods The clinical data of 52 patients admitted to the ICU of Fuzhou First Hospital in Fujian Province, China, from May 2018 to March 2019 were collected. Patients were allocated into the central hypothyroidism group (CH group, n = 21) and the low T3 syndrome group (LT3S group, n = 31) based on thyroid function. All related medical data were collected, and the correlations between variables were identified using Spearman's or Pearson's rank correlation coefficients. Results The Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) II score in the CH group and the LT3S group were 20.6 ± 3.6 and 19.3 ± 3.6, respectively, measured within 24 hours following hospital admission. The mean value of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) in the CH group (0.3 ± 0.3 IU/mL) was significantly lower than that in the LT3S group (1.7 ± 0.9 IU/mL), P < 0.001. Fasting plasma glucose (FPG) level in the CH group was significantly higher than that in the LT3S group (10.3 ± 5.0 mmol/L vs 6.8 ± 2.5 mmol/L, P = 0.002). Conclusion Central hypothyroidism may exist in critically ill patients and may be associated with elevated fasting plasma glucose levels; accordingly, it should be included as part of patient assessment. When FPG is higher than 6.4mmol/L on admission, thyroid function should be actively examined.

Abstract
As years progress, we are found more often in a postprandial than a postabsorptive state. Chrononutrition is an integral part of metabolism, pancreatic function, and hormone secretion. Eating most calories and carbohydrates at lunch time and early afternoon, avoiding late evening dinner, and keeping consistent number of daily meals and relative times of eating occasions seem to play a pivotal role for postprandial glycemia and insulin sensitivity. Sequence of meals and nutrients also play a significant role, as foods of low density such as vegetables, salads, or soups consumed first, followed by protein and then by starchy foods lead to ameliorated glycemic and insulin responses. There are several dietary schemes available, such as intermittent fasting regimes, which may improve glycemic and insulin responses. Weight loss is important for the treatment of insulin resistance, and it can be achieved by many approaches, such as low-fat, low-carbohydrate, Mediterranean-style diets, etc. Lifestyle interventions with small weight loss (7-10%), 150 min of weekly moderate intensity exercise and behavioral therapy approach can be highly effective in preventing and treating type 2 diabetes. Similarly, decreasing carbohydrates in meals also improves significantly glycemic and insulin responses, but the extent of this reduction should be individualized, patient-centered, and monitored. Alternative foods or ingredients, such as vinegar, yogurt, whey protein, peanuts and tree nuts should also be considered in ameliorating postprandial hyperglycemia and insulin resistance. This review aims to describe the available evidence about the effects of diet, chrononutrition, alternative dietary interventions and exercise on postprandial glycemia and insulin resistance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To evaluate the effects of teneligliptin on glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels, continuous glucose monitoring (CGM)-derived time in range, and glycemic variability in elderly type 2 diabetes mellitus patients. METHODS This randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study was conducted in eight centers in Korea (clinical trial registration number: NCT03508323). Sixty-five participants aged ≥65 years, who were treatment-naïve or had been treated with stable doses of metformin, were randomized at a 1:1 ratio to receive 20 mg of teneligliptin (n=35) or placebo (n=30) for 12 weeks. The main endpoints were the changes in HbA1c levels from baseline to week 12, CGM metrics-derived time in range, and glycemic variability. RESULTS After 12 weeks, a significant reduction (by 0.84%) in HbA1c levels was observed in the teneligliptin group compared to that in the placebo group (by 0.08%), with a between-group least squares mean difference of -0.76% (95% confidence interval [CI], -1.08 to -0.44). The coefficient of variation, standard deviation, and mean amplitude of glycemic excursion significantly decreased in participants treated with teneligliptin as compared to those in the placebo group. Teneligliptin treatment significantly decreased the time spent above 180 or 250 mg/dL, respectively, without increasing the time spent below 70 mg/dL. The mean percentage of time for which glucose levels remained in the 70 to 180 mg/dL time in range (TIR70-180) at week 12 was 82.0%±16.0% in the teneligliptin group, and placebo-adjusted change in TIR70-180 from baseline was 13.3% (95% CI, 6.0 to 20.6). CONCLUSION Teneligliptin effectively reduced HbA1c levels, time spent above the target range, and glycemic variability, without increasing hypoglycemia in our study population.

Abstract
We performed a comprehensive review of recent publications about type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in Peru, including studies among people living at high altitude above the sea level. An increase in the prevalence of T2DM in Peru has been reported, the reasons are multifactorial and coinciding with the strong economic growth that our country has experienced over the last 20 years along with migration from the Andean regions to the coast and the adoption of a lifestyle that is a known to be a risk factor for obesity and insulin resistance. Scarce information is available in Peru about the prevalence of chronic complications of T2DM such as retinopathy, neuropathy, and nephropathy. There is a need for a health care plan based on early diagnosis of T2DM to reduce social and economic problems, as recommended by the WHO and the United Nations.

Abstract
Mice are used extensively in preclinical diabetes research to model various aspects of blood glucose homeostasis. Careful experimental design is vital for maximising welfare and improving reproducibility of data. Alongside decisions regarding physiological characteristics of the animal cohort (e.g., sex, strain and age), experimental protocols must also be carefully considered. This includes choosing relevant end points of interest and understanding what information they can provide and what their limitations are. Details of experimental protocols must, therefore, be carefully planned during the experimental design stage, especially considering the impact of researcher interventions on preclinical end points. Indeed, in line with the 3Rs of animal research, experiments should be refined where possible to maximise welfare. The role of welfare may be particularly pertinent in preclinical diabetes research as blood glucose concentrations are directly altered by physiological stress responses. Despite the potential impact of variations in experimental protocols, there is distinct lack of standardisation and consistency throughout the literature with regards to several experimental procedures including fasting, cage changing and glucose tolerance test protocol. This review firstly highlights practical considerations with regard to the choice of end points in preclinical diabetes research and the potential for novel technologies such as continuous glucose monitoring and glucose clamping techniques to improve data resolution. The potential influence of differing experimental protocols and in vivo procedures on both welfare and experimental outcomes is then discussed with focus on standardisation, consistency and full disclosure of methods.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus affects people worldwide, and management of its acute complications or treatment-related adverse events is particularly important in critically ill patients. Previous reports have confirmed that hyperglycemia can increase the risk of mortality in patients cared in the intensive care unit (ICU). In addition, severe and multiple hypoglycemia increases the risk of mortality when using insulin or intensive antidiabetic therapy. The innovation of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) may help to alert medical caregivers with regard to the development of hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia, which may decrease the potential complications in patients in the ICU. The major limitation of CGM is the measurement of interstitial glucose levels rather than real-time blood glucose levels; thus, there will be a delay in the treatment of hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia in patients. Recently, the European Union approved a state-of-art artificial intelligence directed loop system coordinated by CGM and a continuous insulin pump for diabetes control, which may provide a practical way to prevent acute adverse glycemic events related to antidiabetic therapy in critically ill patients. In this mini-review paper, we describe the application of CGM to patients in the ICU and summarize the pros and cons of CGM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The role of different types and quantities of macronutrients on human health has been controversial, and the individual response to dietary macronutrient intake needs more investigation. OBJECTIVES We aimed to use an 'n-of-1' study design to investigate the individual variability in postprandial glycemic response when eating diets with different macronutrient distributions among apparently healthy adults. METHODS Thirty apparently healthy young Chinese adults (women, 68%) aged between 22 and 34 y, with BMI between 17.2 and 31.9 kg/m2, were provided with high-fat, low-carbohydrate (HF-LC, 60-70% fat, 15-25% carbohydrate, 15% protein, of total energy) and low-fat, high-carbohydrate (LF-HC, 10-20% fat, 65-75% carbohydrate, 15% protein) diets, for 6 d wearing continuous glucose monitoring systems, respectively, in a randomized sequence, interspersed by a 6-d wash-out period. Three cycles were conducted. The primary outcomes were the differences of maximum postprandial glucose (MPG), mean amplitude of glycemic excursions (MAGE), and AUC24 between intervention periods of LF-HC and HF-LC diets. A Bayesian model was used to predict responders with the posterior probability of any 1 of the 3 outcomes reaching a clinically meaningful difference. RESULTS Twenty-eight participants were included in the analysis. Posterior probability of reaching a clinically meaningful difference of MPG (0.167 mmol/L), MAGE (0.072 mmol/L), and AUC24 (13.889 mmol/L·h) between LF-HC and HF-LC diets varied among participants, and those with posterior probability >80% were identified as high-carbohydrate responders (n = 9) or high-fat responders (n = 6). Analyses of the Bayesian-aggregated n-of-1 trials among all participants showed a relatively low posterior probability of reaching a clinically meaningful difference of the 3 outcomes between LF-HC and HF-LC diets. CONCLUSIONS N-of-1 trials are feasible to characterize personal response to dietary intervention in young Chinese adults.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To describe challenges and lessons learned in conducting a remote behavioral weight loss trial. METHODS The Personal Diet Study is an ongoing randomized clinical trial which aims to compare two mobile health (mHealth) weight loss approaches, standardized diet vs. personalized feedback, on glycemic response. Over a six-month period, participants attended dietitian-led group meetings via remote videoconferencing and were encouraged to self-monitor dietary intake using a smartphone app. Descriptive statistics were used to report adherence to counseling sessions and self-monitoring. Challenges were tracked during weekly project meetings. RESULTS Challenges in connecting to and engaging in the videoconferencing sessions were noted. To address these issues, we provided a step-by-step user manual and video tutorials regarding use of WebEx, encouraged alternative means to join sessions, and sent reminder emails/texts about the WebEx sessions and asking participants to join sessions early. Self-monitoring app-related issue included inability to find specific foods in the app database. To overcome this, the study team incorporated commonly consumed foods as "favorites" in the app database, provided a manual and video tutorials regarding use of the app and checked the self-monitoring app dashboard weekly to identify nonadherent participants and intervened as appropriate. Among 135 participants included in the analysis, the median attendance rate for the 14 remote sessions was 85.7% (IQR: 64.3%-92.9%). CONCLUSIONS Experience and lessons shared in this report may provide critical and timely guidance to other behavioral researchers and interventionists seeking to adapt behavioral counseling programs for remote delivery in the age of COVID-19.

Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic has continued to spread rapidly, and patients with diabetes are at risk of experiencing rapid progression and poor prognosis for appropriate treatment. Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM), which includes accurately tracking fluctuations in glucose levels without raising the risk of coronavirus exposure, becomes an important strategy for the self-management of diabetes during this pandemic, efficiently contributing to the diabetes care and the fight against COVID-19. Despite being less accurate than direct blood glucose monitoring, wearable noninvasive systems can encourage patient adherence by guaranteeing reliable results through high correlation between blood glucose levels and glucose concentrations in various other biofluids. This review highlights the trending technologies of glucose sensors during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic (2019-2020) that have been developed to make a significant contribution to effective management of diabetes and prevention of coronavirus spread, from off-body systems to wearable on-body CGM devices, including nanostructure and sensor performance in various biofluids. The advantages and disadvantages of various human biofluids for use in glucose sensors are also discussed. Furthermore, the challenges faced by wearable CGM sensors with respect to personalized healthcare during and after the pandemic are deliberated to emphasize the potential future directions of CGM devices for diabetes management.

Abstract
To assess the pleiotropic effects of ketogenic diets (KD) on glucose control, changes in medication, and weight loss in individuals with type 2 diabetes, and to evaluate its practical feasibility RECENT FINDINGS: KD results in improved HbA1c already after 3 weeks, and the effect seems to persist for at least 1 year. This is associated with a reduction in glucose-lowering medications. The weight loss observed after a short time period seems to be maintained with a long-term diet. Adequate support (supportive psychological counseling, enhancing positive affectivity, reinforcing mindful eating) is necessary to achieve a benefit and to assure adherence. Despite the documented decrease in HbA1, a definitive causal effect of KD remains to be proven. KD should be performed under strict medical supervision. Future research should clarify how compliance can be maximized and how ketosis can be optimally monitored.

Abstract
Background: Flash glucose monitoring (FGM) is a technology with considerable differences compared to continuous glucose monitoring (CGM), but it has been scarcely studied in hemodialysis patients. Thus, we aimed assessing the performance of FGM in such patients by comparison to self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG). We will also focus on estimation of glycemic control and variability, and their relationships with parameters of glucose homeostasis. Methods: Thirty-one patients (20 with type 2 diabetes, T2DM, 11 diabetes-free, NODM) collected readings by FGM and SMBG for about 12 days on average. Readings by FGM and SMBG were compared by linear regression, Clarke error grid, and Bland-Altman analyses. Several indices of glycemic control and variability were computed. Ten patients also underwent oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) for assessment of insulin sensitivity/resistance and insulin secretion/beta-cell function. Results: Flash glucose monitoring and SMBG readings showed very good agreement in both T2DM and NODM (on average, 97 and 99% of readings during hemodialysis in A+B Clarke regions, respectively). Some glycemic control and variability indices were similar by FGM and SMBG (p = 0.06–0.9), whereas others were different (p = 0.0001–0.03). The majority of control and variability indices were higher in T2DM than in NODM, according to both FGM and SMBG (p = 0.0005–0.03). OGTT-based insulin secretion was inversely related to some variability indices according to FGM (R < −0.72, p < 0.02). Conclusions: Based on our dataset, FGM appeared acceptable for glucose monitoring in hemodialysis patients, though partial disagreement with SMBG in glycemic control/variability assessment needs further investigations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate glucose variations associated with glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) in insulin-treated patients with type 2 diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Patients included in Diabetes and Lifestyle Cohort Twente (DIALECT)-2 (n = 79) were grouped into three HbA1c categories: low, intermediate, and high (≤53, 54-62, and ≥63 mmol/mol or ≤7, 7.1-7.8, and ≥7.9%, respectively). Blood glucose time in range (TIR), time below range (TBR), time above range (TAR), glucose variability parameters, day and night duration, and frequency of TBR and TAR episodes were determined by continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) using the FreeStyle Libre sensor and compared between HbA1c categories. RESULTS CGM was performed for a median (interquartile range) of 10 (7-12) days/patient. TIR was not different for low and intermediate HbA1c categories (76.8% [68.3-88.2] vs. 76.0% [72.5.0-80.1]), whereas in the low category, TBR was higher and TAR lower (7.7% [2.4-19.1] vs. 0.7% [0.3-6.1] and 8.2% [5.7-17.6] vs. 20.4% [11.6-27.0], respectively, P < 0.05). Patients in the highest HbA1c category had lower TIR (52.7% [40.9-67.3]) and higher TAR (44.1% [27.8-57.0]) than the other HbA1c categories (P < 0.05), but did not have less TBR during the night. All patients had more (0.06 ± 0.06/h vs. 0.03 ± 0.03/h; P = 0.002) and longer (88.0 [45.0-195.5] vs. 53.4 [34.4-82.8] minutes; P < 0.001) TBR episodes during the night than during the day. CONCLUSIONS In this study, a high HbA1c did not reduce the occurrence of nocturnal hypoglycemia, and low HbA1c was not associated with the highest TIR. Optimal personalization of glycemic control requires the use of newer tools, including CGM-derived parameters.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION To compare glycemic variability (GV) and time in range (TIR) in Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) initiated on once-daily bedtime insulin glargine 300U/ml (Gla-300) versus neutral protamine Hagedorn (NPH) insulin using continuous glucose monitoring (CGM). METHODS This was a 24-week, open-label exploratory study with 1:1 randomization comparing patient-adjusted titration of Gla-300 (n = 23) versus NPH (n = 23) at bedtime in insulin-naïve T2D patients on maximum oral glucose-lowering drugs. The starting dose was 0.2 U/kg/day and with self-titration of one unit per week to achieve a target fasting glucose of 4.4-6 mmol/l, without hypoglycemia. Participants had masked CGM at baseline, weeks 11 and 24. The primary outcome was between-treatment differences in CGM glucose standard deviation (SD) at week 24. RESULTS HbA1c at week 24 were similar, with 21% of Gla-300 versus 4% of NPH-treated patients achieving HbA1c < 7% without confirmed hypoglycemia. There were no differences in anytime glucose SD at week 24 (LS mean difference - 0.08 mmol/l, 95% CI [- 0.42-0.26], p = 0.63). Anytime %TIRs (3.9-10.0 mmol/l) at week 24 were similar (p = 0.91). Nocturnal % time below range < 3.9 mmol/l was significantly lower in the Gla-300 group (least squares (LS) mean difference - 5.03% [- 9.92 to - 0.14], p = 0.04) with lower % coefficient of variation (LS mean difference - 4.5% [- 8.1 to - 0.8], p = 0.018). Diurnal TIR was higher in Gla-300 patients at week 11 but there were no differences at week 24. CONCLUSIONS Once-daily bedtime Gla-300 was associated with lower nocturnal GV, time below range and self-reported hypoglycemia in insulin-naïve Chinese T2D patients over a 24-week study period, as compared with NPH insulin.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Diabetes mellitus type two is one of the major cardiovascular risk factors. Treatment of diabetes can reduce this risk, but the treatment options differ a lot in their risk-reducing capabilities. We compared the impact of insulin degludec (IDeg-100) and insulin glargine U300 (IGlar-300) on cardiovascular risk parameters - glycaemic variability (GV), arterial stiffness and lipid parameters - in insulin naive patients with DMT2. METHODS To 23 individuals who previously had uncontrolled DMT2 on two or more oral antidiabetic drugs, IGlar-300 and IDeg-100 were applied for 12 weeks and then switched in a cross over design manner. Prior and after of each insulin phase, we analysed biochemical parameters,7-point SMBG profile over three days and arterial stiffness which was assessed indirectly by measuring the augmentation index (AIx) on the principles of applanation tonometry. RESULTS There were no significant differences between IGlar-300 and IDeg-100 regarding reduction of mean glucose values and coefficient of variation (CV). Both insulins insignificantly reduced AIx for standardised pulse of 75 beats/min and without differences between them. IGlar-300 and IDeg-100 reduced triglycerides and increased HDL with no significant difference between the two insulins. IGlar-300 increased the total cholesterol level and IDeg-100 decreased total cholesterol, but without statistically significant difference. IGlar-300 increased LDL level by 0.508 mmol/L and IDeg-100 decreased LDL by 0.217 mmol/L, with statistically significant difference (p = 0.0215). CONCLUSIONS This study did not show significant difference between IGlar-300 and IDeg-100 regarding glycaemic parameters and augmentation index using the same dose of 0.2 IU/kg for both insulins, but it has revealed possible differences in impact on lipid profile.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Glycemic fluctuations around a mean glucose level, referred as glycemic variability and blood pressure variability (BPV) are considered as independent risk factors for cardiovascular diseases, all-cause mortality, and cardiovascular disease-mortality. With this background in mind, we aimed to investigate the association between glycemic variability and BPV and their association in normoglycemic and normotensive individuals. MATERIALS AND METHOD Twenty-seven normotensive normoglycemic individuals were recruited. Twenty-four hour Holter devices were utilized to measure ambulatory blood pressure (BP) while continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) devices were applied to measure glycemic variability simultaneously to the subjects. These devices were kept on for 48 h. For BP recordings, daytime, nighttime, and 24-h BP determinations, their mean and SD were calculated. From CGM measurements, mean blood glucose (MBG), SD of blood glucose, the mean amplitude of glycemic excursions (MAGE), the mean of daily differences (MODD), coefficient of variation (correction of variability for the MBG), and daytime and nighttime blood glucose were determined. RESULTS The mean age of the subjects was 23.8 ± 2.7 years and 66% were women (18/27). In the correlation analysis between glycemic variability parameters and BPV parameters, SD of 24-h SBP was correlated with the SD of MBG (r = 0.52, P = 0.006), MAGE (r = 0.49, P = 0.009), and MODD (r = 0.46, P = 0.015). SD of daytime SBP was correlated with, MAGE (r = 0.42, P = 0.03) and MODD (r = 0.43, P = 0.02). CONCLUSION We report correlation between glycemic variability and BPV variables in normoglycemic and normotensive healthy individuals.

Abstract
During pregnancy, metabolic adaptations occur to maintain the balance between maternal and foetal growth, including increased insulin secretion and decreased insulin sensitivity. When the body fails to adjust, gestational diabetes mellitus develops. To gain insight in the pregnancy-induced adaptations, we applied continuous glucose monitoring via telemetric transmitters. We show that continuous glucose monitoring in conscious, non-stressed, freely moving mice throughout the full pregnancy is feasible, accurate and safe. We show that healthy mice during a full pregnancy develop adaptations in glucose homeostasis reminiscent of those in pregnant women. Furthermore, continuous glucose monitoring allows the complete analysis of all aspects of glucose excursions associated with spontaneous feeding episodes, and the thorough analysis of glycaemic variability. In conclusion, continuous glucose monitoring allows a detailed description of the glycaemic status during pregnancy, which will help to unravel specific mechanisms for gestational diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
Backgrounds Glucose fluctuation (GF) may have detrimental effects in individuals with diabetes; however, clinical data on the association between short-term GF, inflammation/oxidative stress markers, and islet β-cell function based on a population with normal glucose tolerance (NGT) are insufficient. Therefore, we aimed to explore these associations in a Chinese population of 209 individuals with NGT in a cross-sectional analysis. Methods Individuals were categorized based on GF tertiles, calculated as the maximum-minimum glucose levels among four time points (0, 30, 60, 120 min) during 2-hour oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). Plasma inflammation markers tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6), and oxidative stress markers superoxide dismutase (SOD), and 8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxo-dG) were measured. Islet β-cell function was estimated according to the disposition index (DI) at the early (30 min) and total (120 min) phase of the OGTT, adjusted for insulin sensitivity. Results Individuals in the middle and highest tertile of GF had reduced β-cell function, and increased plasma SOD and TNF-α levels compared with those in the lowest tertile of GF (P<0.05). Multiple linear regression analysis indicated that GF was positively associated with TNF-α, 8-oxo-dG and SOD levels, but negatively associated with β-cell function, whereas IL-6, TNF-α, 8-oxo-dG and SOD levels were negatively associated with β-cell function (P<0.05). Conclusions GF may increase inflammation and oxidative stress markers in individuals with NGT, which could contribute to reduced β-cell function. Thus, maintaining glucose stability after a meal may have beneficial effects on delaying β-cell dysfunction, suggesting that diet and exercise strategies to decrease diet related GF are warranted.

Abstract
Glucose levels in blood must be constantly maintained within a tight physiological range to sustain anabolism. Insulin regulates glucose homeostasis via its effects on glucose production from the liver and kidneys and glucose disposal in peripheral tissues (mainly skeletal muscle). Blood levels of glucose are regulated simultaneously by insulin-mediated rates of glucose production from the liver (and kidneys) and removal from muscle; adipose tissue is a key partner in this scenario, providing nonesterified fatty acids (NEFA) as an alternative fuel for skeletal muscle and liver when blood glucose levels are depleted. During sleep at night, the gradual development of insulin resistance, due to growth hormone and cortisol surges, ensures that blood glucose levels will be maintained within normal levels by: (a) switching from glucose to NEFA oxidation in muscle; (b) modulating glucose production from the liver/kidneys. After meals, several mechanisms (sequence/composition of meals, gastric emptying/intestinal glucose absorption, gastrointestinal hormones, hyperglycemia mass action effects, insulin/glucagon secretion/action, de novo lipogenesis and glucose disposal) operate in concert for optimal regulation of postprandial glucose fluctuations. The contribution of the liver in postprandial glucose homeostasis is critical. The liver is preferentially used to dispose over 50% of the ingested glucose and restrict the acute increases of glucose and insulin in the bloodstream after meals, thus protecting the circulation and tissues from the adverse effects of marked hyperglycemia and hyperinsulinemia.

Abstract
Glycemic variability (GV) appears today as an integral component of glucose homeostasis for the management of type 2 diabetes (T2D). This review aims at investigating the use and relevance of GV parameters in interventional and observational studies for glucose control management in T2D. It will first focus on the relationships between GV parameters measured by continuous glucose monitoring system (CGMS) and glycemic control and T2D-associated complications markers. The second part will be dedicated to the analysis of GV parameters from CGMS as outcomes in interventional studies (pharmacological, nutritional, physical activity) aimed at improving glycemic control in patients with T2D. From 243 articles first identified, 63 articles were included (27 for the first part and 38 for the second part). For both analyses, the majority of the identified studies were pharmacological. Lifestyle studies (including nutritional and physical activity-based studies, N-AP) were poorly represented. Concerning the relationships of GV parameters with those for glycemic control and T2D related-complications, the standard deviation (SD), the coefficient of variation (CV), the mean blood glucose (MBG), and the mean amplitude of the glycemic excursions (MAGEs) were the most studied, showing strong relationships, in particular with HbA1c. Regarding the use and relevance of GV as an outcome in interventional studies, in pharmacological ones, SD, MAGE, MBG, and time in range (TIR) were the GV parameters used as main criteria in most studies, showing significant improvement after intervention, in parallel or not with glycemic control parameters' (HbA1c, FBG, and PPBG) improvement. In N-AP studies, the same results were observed for SD, MAGE, and TIR. Despite the small number of N-AP studies addressing both GV and glycemic control parameters compared to pharmacological ones, N-AP studies have shown promising results on GV parameters and would require more in-depth work. Evaluating CGMS-GV parameters as outcomes in interventional studies may provide a more integrative dimension of glucose control than the standard postprandial follow-up. GV appears to be a key component of T2D dysglycemia, and some parameters such as MAGE, SD, or TIR could be used routinely in addition to classical markers of glycemic control such as HbA1c, fasting, or postprandial glycemia.

Abstract
Chronic hyperglycemia is an established risk factor for the development of complications in both type 1 and type 2 diabetes, but glycemic variability has emerged as a possible independent risk factor for diabetes complications, possibly through oxidative stress. In this review, methods to access glycemic variability and oxidative stress, as well as their correlations, are discussed. Non-pharmacological and pharmacological strategies are also debated to achieve better glycemic control, not only by HbA1c target but also with reduced glycemic fluctuations, possibly minimizing the risk of diabetes complications.

Abstract
The prevalence of diabetes in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) is growing rapidly, and a steadily increasing number of adults are estimated to be living with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Insulin therapy is the treatment of choice in patients who present with severe hyperglycaemia and in most of those who do not achieve target goals on oral hypoglycaemic agents. Initiating treatment with the appropriate type of insulin based on the meal patterns and lifestyle of the individual patient is a strategy that is more likely than others to improve glycaemic control and adherence. African cuisine typically has a high carbohydrate load. Given these predominantly carbohydrate-rich food habits, it is essential to modify this dietary pattern whilst at the same time ensuring that insulin therapy is initiated, titrated and maintained in a timely manner, as needed to suit the patient's habits. To date, there are no published clinical guidelines to guide practitioners and patients on tailoring insulin to match the high carbohydrate content in African cuisine. To address this gap, we have reviewed current insulin therapy practices and propose a patient-centric guide to insulin therapy based on African cuisine. A literature search was conducted for studies published in English up to November 2019 that focused on the choice of insulin and its dosing in relation to African foods. All articles extracted were reviewed by an expert group. The recommendation of the expert group was that basal-bolus and premix insulin regimens are best suited to manage post-meal glycaemia in African cuisine. The timing and constituents of the meal, portion sizes, glycaemic load and glycaemic index of meals should be considered when choosing the type of insulin and insulin regimen. Assessment of individual preferences and comorbidities should be prioritised and form an integral part of diabetes management.

Abstract
Glycemic variability (GV) plays an important role in the pathogenesis of vascular complications associated with diabetes mellitus (DM). Paeoniflorin is an effective Chinese traditional medicine with anti-inflammatory and immune-regulatory effects. Previous studies implicated the beneficial effects of paeoniflorin in treatment for diabetic complications, such as type 2 diabetic nephropathy and diabetes with myocardial ischemic injury. Current evidence suggests that oxidative stress and platelet activation, as well as their interaction, are potentially associated with GV and involved in the pathogenesis of diabetes-associated vascular complications. This study aimed to explore the effects of paeoniflorin on oxidative stress and platelet activation, using human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) cultured with different glucose concentrations, and streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats fed different glycemic index diets. Paeoniflorin treatment effectively improved the morphology and cell viability of HUVECs under glucose fluctuation. Moreover, the platelet aggregation rate, CD62p expression, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) concentration decreased, while glutathione peroxidase (GSH-px) levels increased in paeoniflorin-treated groups. In conclusion, our study found that paeoniflorin ameliorates oxidative stress and platelet activation induced by glycemic variability both in vivo and in vitro, suggesting a novel potential strategy for treatment of diabetic complications. Glycemic variability (GV) plays an important role in the pathogenesis of vascular complications associated with diabetes mellitus (DM).![]()

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To alleviate clinical signs and avoid life-threatening complications in dogs with diabetes mellitus, individualized treatment plans and frequent reassessments are necessary. Performing blood glucose profiles every 7-14 days following insulin adjustments and monthly thereafter, is recommended. In 2016, a factory calibrated continuous blood glucose monitoring system was presented as a possible alternative to glucometer readings. The objectives of this study were to summarize the experiences with this new technology and to show, that in combination with simple rules, already the first measurement period can improve glycemic control. MATERIAL AND METHODS The electronic database of the endocrine unit of the clinic was retrospectively searched for diabetic dogs with flash glucose monitoring. In case of repeated sensor implantations, only the first sensor was considered. The recordings of day A (starting at midnight after sensor placement) were compared to the measurements of day B (day before sensor failure) and all owners were contacted to fill in a standardized questionnaire. RESULTS The final study population consisted of 24 dogs weighing 3.4 to 36 kg. Although the clicking noise during sensor placement irritated most dogs, the application was considered easy and painless. Waiting for disinfectant evaporation and fixation of the sensor disc with forceps helped to avoid sensor detachment when removing the application device. Although transient mild to moderate skin irritations were observed in 80 % of the dogs, 95 % of the owners were highly satisfied with this new monitoring technology. Mean and maximum glucose (p = 0.043, p = 0.003) as well as glucose readings ≥ 11.1 mmol/l (p = 0.032) decreased from day A to B, whereas markers of glycemic variability did not change. CONCLUSION AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE Flash glucose monitoring is a feasible, safe method with high user satisfaction and offers a possibility to improve glycemic control in diabetic dogs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study investigated the relationships of thigh and waist circumference with the hemoglobin glycation index (HGI) and carotid atherosclerosis in patients with type 2 diabetes. METHODS This observational study included 3,075 Korean patients with type 2 diabetes, in whom anthropometric measurements and carotid ultrasonography were conducted. HGI was defined as the measured hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) level minus the predicted HbA1c level, which was calculated using the linear relationship between HbA1c and fasting plasma glucose levels. Carotid atherosclerosis was defined as a clearly isolated focal plaque or focal wall thickening >50% of the surrounding intima-media thickness. RESULTS The frequency of a positive HGI decreased with increasing thigh circumference in men and increased with increasing waist circumference in women after adjusting for potential confounding variables. Thigh and waist circumference had a combined augmentative effect on the likelihood of positive HGI, which was dramatically higher in patients in higher waist-to-thigh ratio quartiles (adjusted odds ratios for the highest compared to the lowest quartile: 1.595 in men and 1.570 in women). Additionally, the larger the thigh circumference, the lower the risk of carotid atherosclerosis, although in women, this relationship lacked significance after adjustment for potential confounders. CONCLUSION HGI was associated with thigh circumference in men and waist circumference in women. In addition, the combination of low thigh circumference and high waist circumference was strongly associated with a higher HGI in Korean patients with type 2 diabetes. In particular, thigh circumference was associated with carotid atherosclerosis in men. However, further longitudinal studies are warranted.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The ambulatory glucose profile (AGP) uses the wealth of data that are generated by continuous glucose monitoring, including flash glucose monitoring technologies, to provide a visual representation of glucose levels over a typical standard day of usually the most recent two weeks for a person with diabetes and helps to identify patterns and trends in glucose control. The AGP allows certain patterns of glucose levels to be identified and analyzed, such that treatment adjustments can be made, and new individual treatment goals can be defined. This helps to ensure increased treatment satisfaction and adherence, quality of life, and an improvement in metabolic management for people with diabetes. OBJECTIVE To date, a range of approaches exists for interpreting the information contained in an AGP, with different priorities given to identifying and targeting patterns of hypoglycemia and the degree of variability and stability underlying the glucose levels. The objective of the present recommendation is to describe the steps for assessing an AGP in detail and to illustrate these steps using visual examples. CONCLUSION This paper describes the consensus recommendations from a group of German expert diabetologists on the necessary steps for assessing an AGP in a structured and detailed way and to explain these steps using practical clinical examples.

Abstract
In 2011, the James Lind Alliance published a 'top 10' list of priorities for Type 1 diabetes research based on a structured consultation process. Whether reducing fluctuations in blood glucose can prevent long-term microvascular and macrovascular complications was one of these. In this narrative review, 8 years on, we have assessed the updated evidence for the assertion that increased glucose variability plays an independent and clinically important role in the complications of Type 1 diabetes, over and above mean blood glucose and the effects of hypoglycaemia: the 'glucose variability hypothesis'. Although studies in cultured cells and ex vivo vessels have been suggestive, most studies in Type 1 diabetes have been small and/or cross-sectional, and based on 'finger-prick' glucose measurements that capture glucose variability only in waking hours and are affected by missing data. A recent analysis of the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial that formally imputed missing data found no independent effect of short-term glucose variability on long-term complications. Few other high-quality longitudinal studies have directly addressed the glucose variability hypothesis in Type 1 diabetes. We conclude that there is little substantial evidence to date to support this hypothesis in Type 1 diabetes, although increasing use of continuous glucose monitoring provides an opportunity to test it more definitively. In the meantime, we recommend that control of glycaemia in Type 1 diabetes should continue to focus on the sustained achievement of target HbA1c and avoidance of hypoglycaemia.

Abstract
AIMS To compare closed-loop (CL) and open-loop (OL) systems for glycaemic control in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) exposed to real-life challenging situations (gastronomic dinners or sustained physical exercise). METHODS Thirty-eight adult patients with T1D were included in a three-armed randomized pilot trial (Diabeloop WP6.2 trial) comparing glucose control using a CL system with use of an OL device during two crossover 72-hour periods in one of the three following situations: large (gastronomic) dinners; sustained and repeated bouts of physical exercise (with uncontrolled food intake); or control (rest conditions). Outcomes included time in spent in the glucose ranges of 4.4-7.8 mmol/L and 3.9-10.0 mmol/L, and time in hypo- and hyperglycaemia. RESULTS Time spent overnight in the tight range of 4.4 to 7.8 mmol/L was longer with CL (mean values: 63.2% vs 40.9% with OL; P ≤ .0001). Time spent during the day in the range of 3.9 to 10.0 mmol/L was also longer with CL (79.4% vs 64.1% with OL; P ≤ .0001). Participants using the CL system spent less time during the day with hyperglycaemic excursions (glucose >10.0 mmol/L) compared to those using an OL system (17.9% vs 31.9%; P ≤ .0001), and the proportions of time spent during the day with hyperglycaemic excursions of those using the CL system in the gastronomic dinner and physical exercise subgroups were of similar magnitude to those in the control subgroup (18.1 ± 6.3%, 17.2 ± 8.1% and 18.4 ± 12.5%, respectively). Finally, times spent in hypoglycaemia were short and not significantly different among the groups. CONCLUSIONS The Diabeloop CL system is superior to OL devices in reducing hyperglycaemic excursions in patients with T1D exposed to gastronomic dinners, or exposed to physical exercise followed by uncontrolled food and carbohydrate intake.

Rapid-Acting Insulin Analogues Versus Regular Human Insulin: A Meta-Analysis of Effects on Glycemic Control in Patients with Diabetes. Diabetes Ther 2020; 11:573-584. [PMID: 31873857 PMCID: PMC7048883 DOI: 10.1007/s13300-019-00732-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 28] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/21/2019] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The aim of this meta-analysis was to investigate the impact of rapid-acting insulin analogues (RAIAs) and regular human insulin (RHI) on glycemic control, including long- and short-term glycemic variability as measured by glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) and pre- and postprandial glucose (PPG). METHODS PubMed was searched for studies published between 1999 and 29 June 2016. Randomised controlled trials of patients with diabetes that assessed the effects of RAIAs or RHI on glycemic control, focusing on preprandial glucose, PPG and HbA1c, were included. Only studies that reported both means and standard deviations for those outcomes were analysed; from these data, weighted mean differences and 95% confidence intervals were generated to yield overall point estimates. The primary outcomes of the meta-analysis were the mean differences between RAIAs and RHI at the end of the study in PPG, preprandial glucose, and HbA1c. RESULTS Twenty-seven studies (n = 7452) were included. The difference in PPG between RAIA- and RHI-treated patients was significant-in favour of RAIAs-in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) [- 22.2 mg/dL; 95% confidence interval (CI) - 27.4, - 17.0 mg/dL; P < 0.0001] but not in those with type 2 diabetes (T2D). For preprandial glucose, there was a non-significant trend favouring RHIs in T1D; no data were available for patients with T2D. In patients with T1D, the between-group difference in end-of-treatment (EOT) HbA1c favoured RAIAs (- 0.13%; 95% CI - 0.18, - 0.08%; P < 0.0001), but was not significant in patients with T2D. The main study limitations were the small number and heterogeneity of the included studies. CONCLUSIONS These results demonstrate that RAIAs are more effective at reducing PPG and improving HbA1c than RHIs in T1D. More data are required to assess the effect of these agents on glucose control in T2D. In patients with diabetes, the risk of complications is increased by poor control of blood glucose levels and high blood glucose variability. Complications may include cardiovascular disease, eye problems and amputation. Control and variability of blood glucose levels can be evaluated using a range of measures, including (i) glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) level at the end of the treatment period; (ii) change in HbA1c level during the treatment period; (iii) fasting plasma glucose level; (iv) postprandial glucose (PPG) level; (v) change in blood glucose level after a meal. PPG levels following a meal are an important measure of overall metabolic control in diabetes, and reduction of glycemic variability (GV) can be achieved via reductions in PPG. Both rapid-acting insulin analogues (RAIAs; aspart, glulisine and lispro) and regular human insulin (RHI) are widely used in the management of diabetes. Using data from 27 randomised controlled trials involving more than 7000 patients, we investigated the impact of RAIAs and RHI on measures of glycemic control and variability in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) or type 2 diabetes (T2D). Our results show that, in patients with T1D, RAIAs are more effective than RHI at reducing PPG excursions and HbA1c. This indicates that glycemic control is better with RAIAs than with RHI. More data are required to assess the effects of RAIAs and RHI on glycemic control and variability in patients with T2D.
