Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the efficacy of Da Chaihu decoction combined with metformin tablets on patients with type 2 diabetes compared with metformin alone. METHODS This systematic review and meta-analysis is written based on 2020 PRISMA Extension for Chinese Herbal Medicines 2020 (PRISMA-CHM 2020) reporting guidelines. We reviewed all the relevant studies from a search of the following databases from inception to February 2022 without any language restriction: Excerpta Medica Database (EMBASE), Google Scholar, PubMed, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), VIP Information, Wanfang Data, and the Chinese Biomedical Literature Database(CBM). Data were extracted and the quality was independently evaluated by two reviewers, based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data were analyzed using the Cochrane software RevMan 5.3. RESULTS Six randomized controlled trials comprising 516 participants were included. The meta-analysis revealed the Da Chaihu decoction combined with metformin tablets group was significantly superior to the metformin tablets group in terms of fasting blood glucose(FPG) (-0.66 mmol/L; 95 % CI (confidence intervals) [- 1.28, - 0.04]), plasma glucose 2 h after meal (2-h PG) (-1.18 mmol/L; 95 % CI [-1.94, -0.42]) in six RCTs, body mass index (BMI) (-3.07 mmol/L; 95 % CI [-6.89, 0.75]) in three RCTs, glycosylated hemoglobin (HbAlc) (-0.36 mmol/L; 95 % CI [-1.04, 0.31]) in three RCTs, and triglycerides (TG) (-0.76 mmol/L; 95 % CI [-1.37, -0.15]) in two RCTs. In two RCTs, there were significant differences in terms of total cholesterol (TC) (-0.97 mmol/L; 95 % CI [-1.18, -0.76]). CONCLUSIONS Very low-quality research shows that Da Chaihu decoction combined with metformin tablets exert a certain level of efficacy on patients with type 2 diabetes compared with metformin alone. However, random sequence generation methodology was reported in five studies leading to the low quality of the included studies. None of the six studies depicted the blinding method, allocation concealment, selective reporting, and assessed the purity and potency of the product. This observation requires verification through high-quality, multi-center, double-blinded randomized controlled trials, and assesses the purity and potency of the product.

Abstract
Poor wound healing after diabetes mellitus remains a challenging problem, and its pathophysiological mechanisms have not yet been fully elucidated. Persistent bleeding, disturbed regulation of inflammation, blocked cell proliferation, susceptible infection and impaired tissue remodeling are the main features of diabetic wound healing. Conventional wound dressings, including gauze, films and bandages, have a limited function. They generally act as physical barriers and absorbers of exudates, which fail to meet the requirements of the whol diabetic wound healing process. Wounds in diabetic patients typically heal slowly and are susceptible to infection due to hyperglycemia within the wound bed. Once bacterial cells develop into biofilms, diabetic wounds will exhibit robust drug resistance. Recently, the application of stimuli-responsive hydrogels, also known as "smart hydrogels", for diabetic wound healing has attracted particular attention. The basic feature of this system is its capacities to change mechanical properties, swelling ability, hydrophilicity, permeability of biologically active molecules, etc., in response to various stimuli, including temperature, potential of hydrogen (pH), protease and other biological factors. Smart hydrogels can improve therapeutic efficacy and limit total toxicity according to the characteristics of diabetic wounds. In this review, we summarized the mechanism and application of stimuli-responsive hydrogels for diabetic wound healing. It is hoped that this work will provide some inspiration and suggestions for research in this field.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Non-communicable diseases such as cardiovascular conditions and diabetes are rising in sub-Saharan Africa. Prevention strategies to mitigate non-communicable diseases include improving diet, physical activity, early diagnosis, and long-term management. Early identification of individuals at risk based on risk-score models - such as the Framingham Risk Score (FRS) for 10-year risk of cardiovascular disease and the Finnish type 2 Diabetes risk score (FINDRISC) for type 2 diabetes which are used in high-income settings - have not been well assessed in sub-Saharan Africa. The purpose of this study was to qualitatively assess local knowledge of components of these risk scores in a rural Ugandan setting. METHODS Semi-structured qualitative in-depth interviews were conducted with a purposively selected sample of 15 participants who had responded to the FRS and FINDRISC questionnaires and procedures embedded in the Rakai Community Cohort Study. Data were summarized and categorized using content analysis, with support of Atlas.ti. RESULTS Participants described local terms for hypertension ("pulessa") and type 2 diabetes ("sukaali"). Most participants understood physical activity as leisure physical activity, but when probed would also include physical activity linked to routine farm work. Vegetables were typically described as "plants", "leafy greens", and "side dish". Vegetable and fruit consumption was described as varying seasonally, with peak availability in December after the rainy season. Participants perceived themselves to have good knowledge about their family members' history of type 2 diabetes and hypertension. CONCLUSIONS While most items of the FRS and FINDRISC were generally well understood, physical activity needs further clarification. It is important to consider the seasonality of fruits and vegetables, especially in rural resource-poor settings. Current risk scores will need to be locally adapted to estimate the 10-year risk of cardiovascular diseases and type 2 diabetes in this setting.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus, a well-established risk factor for stroke, is related to higher mortality and poorer outcomes following the stroke event. Advanced glycation end products(AGEs), their receptors RAGEs, other ligands, and several other processes contribute to the cerebrovascular pathomechanism interaction in the diabetes-ischemic stroke combination. Critical reappraisal of molecular targets and therapeutic agents to mitigate them is required to identify key elements for therapeutic interventions that may improve patient outcomes. This scoping review maps evidence on the key roles of AGEs, RAGEs, other ligands such as Leukotriene B4 (LTB4), High-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) nuclear protein, brain-kidney-muscle crosstalk, alternate pathomechanisms in neurodegeneration, and cognitive decline related to diabetic ischemic stroke. RAGE, HMGB1, nitric oxide, and polyamine mechanisms are important therapeutic targets, inflicting common consequences of neuroinflammation and oxidative stress. Experimental findings on a number of existing-emerging therapeutic agents and natural compounds against key targets are promising. The lack of large clinical trials with adequate follow-up periods is a gap that requires addressing to validate the emerging therapeutic agents. Five therapeutic components, which include agents to mitigate the AGE-RAGE axis, improved biomarkers for risk stratification, better renal dysfunction management, adjunctive anti-inflammatory-antioxidant therapies, and innovative neuromuscular stimulation for rehabilitation, are identified. A comprehensive therapeutic strategy that features all the identified components is needed for outcome improvement in diabetic stroke patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is the driving force of blindness in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). DR has a high prevalence and lacks effective therapeutic strategies, underscoring the need for early prevention and treatment. Yunnan province, located in the southwest plateau of China, has a high pre-valence of DR and an underdeveloped economy.
AIM To build a clinical prediction model that will enable early prevention and treatment of DR.
METHODS In this cross-sectional study, 1654 Han population with T2DM were divided into groups without (n = 826) and with DR (n = 828) based on fundus photography. The DR group was further subdivided into non-proliferative DR (n = 403) and proliferative DR (n = 425) groups. A univariate analysis and logistic regression analysis were conducted and a clinical decision tree model was constructed.
RESULTS Diabetes duration ≥ 10 years, female sex, standing- or supine systolic blood pressure (SBP) ≥ 140 mmHg, and cholesterol ≥ 6.22 mmol/L were risk factors for DR in logistic regression analysis (odds ratio = 2.118, 1.520, 1.417, 1.881, and 1.591, respectively). A greater severity of chronic kidney disease (CKD) or hemoglobin A 1c increased the risk of DR in patients with T2DM. In the decision tree model, diabetes duration was the primary risk factor affecting the occurrence of DR in patients with T2DM, followed by CKD stage, supine SBP, standing SBP, and body mass index (BMI). DR classification outcomes were obtained by evaluating standing SBP or BMI according to the CKD stage for diabetes duration < 10 years and by evaluating CKD stage according to the supine SBP for diabetes duration ≥ 10 years.
CONCLUSION Based on the simple and intuitive decision tree model constructed in this study, DR classification outcomes were easily obtained by evaluating diabetes duration, CKD stage, supine or standing SBP, and BMI.

METHODS The Stroke Investigative Research and Educational Network (SIREN) is a multicenter, case-control study involving 15 sites in Ghana and Nigeria. Cases include adults aged ≥18 years with clinical and radiological evidence of an acute stroke. Controls were age-and-gender matched stroke-free adults. Detailed evaluations for vascular factors were performed. Pre-diabetes was defined as HBA1c of 5.7%-6.4% or Fasting blood glucose (FBG) 5.6-7.0 mmol/L and DM as HBA1c >6.5% or FBG>7.0 mmol/L. We used conditional logistic regression to estimate adjusted odds ratios (aOR) with 95% Confidence Interval. RESULTS Among 2,935 stroke cases the mean age was 60.0 ± 14.2 years with 55.2% being males. By glycemic status, 931 (31.7%) were euglycemic, 633 (21.6%) had Pre-diabetes and 1371 (46.7%) had DM. Of the age- and sex-matched stroke-free controls 69.2% were euglycemic, 13.3% had pre-DM and 17.5% had DM. Pre-DM [aOR (95% CI): 3.68(2.61-5.21)] and DM [4.29 (3.19-5.74)] were independently associated with stroke. The aOR of Pre-DM for ischemic stroke 3.06 (2.01-4.64)] was lower than 4.82 (3.37-6.89) for DM. However, the aOR of Pre-DM for hemorrhagic stroke 6.81 (95% CI: 3.29 - 14.08)] was higher than 3.36 (1.94-5.86) for DM. Furthermore, the aOR of pre-DM for ischemic stroke subtypes were 9.64 (1.30-71.57) for cardio-embolic stroke, 3.64 (1.80-7.34) for small-vessel occlusive disease and 4.63 (0.80-26.65) for large-vessel disease. CONCLUSION Pre-DM is strongly and independently associated with stroke in Africans. Improving glycemic control through screening, healthy lifestyle and pharmacotherapy at a population level may be strategic in reducing the rising burden of stroke in Africa.

Abstract
Previous studies have demonstrated the beneficial effects of melatonin in diabetic rats. However, limited studies have been conducted on the potential effects of melatonin on the descriptive histopathological and morphometric findings in different compartments of the adrenal glands in diabetic animal models. In this study, using a streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rat model, we sought to examine histological alterations in the pancreas and adrenal glands and observe the effect of the administration of melatonin on the histopathology and morphology of the pancreas and the adrenal gland cortex and medulla that are altered by STZ-induced hyperglycemia. Rats were randomly assigned to four different groups: Group I, normal control; Group II, melatonin group (MT) (10 mg/kg/day); Group III, (diabetic STZ group), and Group IV, diabetic (STZ) + melatonin group (MT). Throughout the experiment, the animals' fasting blood sugar levels were measured. Blood was obtained to determine the animals' cumulative blood sugar levels after sacrification. For histological and morphometrical evaluations, the pancreatic and adrenal gland tissues were dissected and processed. Our results showed that diabetic rats receiving melatonin significantly (P < 0.05) improved their fasting blood sugar and cumulative blood sugar levels compared to the diabetic group not receiving melatonin. Furthermore, histopathological examinations of the pancreatic and adrenal tissues of the diabetic rats indicated the occurrence of severe histopathological and morphometric changes. Morphometric analysis of the adrenals indicated a significant increase (P < 0.05) in the thickness of the cortex zones [zona glomerulosa (ZG), zona fasciculata (ZF), and zona reticularis (ZR)] for the diabetic STZ group compared with other groups, and a significant decrease (P < 0.05) in the diameter of the in adrenal gland medullas in the diabetic STZ rats compared to the other groups. Furthermore, treatment with melatonin restored these changes in both the pancreatic and adrenal gland tissues and produced a significant (P < 0.05) improvement in the cortex and medulla thickness compared to the untreated diabetic rats. Overall, melatonin significantly reduced the hyperglycemic levels of glucose in diabetic rats and reversed the majority of histopathological alterations in the tissues of the pancreas and adrenals, demonstrating its anti-diabetic activity.

Synthesis, In Vitro Anti-Microbial Analysis and Molecular Docking Study of Aliphatic Hydrazide-Based Benzene Sulphonamide Derivatives as Potent Inhibitors of α-Glucosidase and Urease. MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 27:molecules27207129. [PMID: 36296720 PMCID: PMC9609496 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27207129] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/17/2022] [Revised: 09/29/2022] [Accepted: 10/04/2022] [Indexed: 11/05/2022]
Abstract
A unique series of sulphonamide derivatives was attempted to be synthesized in this study using a new and effective method. All of the synthesized compounds were verified using several spectroscopic methods, including FTIR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and HREI-MS, and their binding interactions were studied using molecular docking. The enzymes urease and α-glucosidase were evaluated against each derivative (1–15). When compared to their respective standard drug such as acarbose and thiourea, almost all compounds were shown to have excellent activity. Among the screened series, analogs 5 (IC50 = 3.20 ± 0.40 and 2.10 ± 0.10 µM) and 6 (IC50 = 2.50 ± 0.40 and 5.30 ± 0.20 µM), emerged as potent molecules when compared to the standard drugs acarbose (IC50 = 8.24 ± 0.08 µM) and urease (IC50 = 7.80 ± 0.30). Moreover, an anti-microbial study also demonstrated that analogs 5 and 6 were found with minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) in the presence of standard drugs streptomycin and terinafine.

Abstract
Abstract
Objective Glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), used for monitoring glycemia control, is altered in iron deficiency anemia (IDA). Glycated albumin (GA) is considered an alternate biomarker to HbA1c. However, effect of IDA on GA needs to be studied.
Materials and Methods Thirty nondiabetic cases with IDA and 30 healthy controls were included. Fasting plasma glucose (FPG), creatinine, urea, albumin, total protein, ferritin, iron, unsaturated iron binding capacity, hemoglobin (Hb), HbA1c, complete hemogram, and GA were estimated. Transferrin saturation and total iron binding capacity (TIBC) were calculated. Statistical analysis was done using unpaired two-tailed t-test/Mann–Whitney U-test and Pearson's correlation/Spearman-rank correlation, as appropriate.
Results Total protein, albumin, Hb, iron, ferritin, and transferrin saturation were significantly lower while FPG, GA, TIBC, and HbA1c were significantly higher in cases compared to controls. HbA1C and GA have a significant negative correlation with iron, transferrin saturation, and ferritin. Significant negative correlations of GA with albumin (r = –0.754; p < 0.001) and Hb (r = –0.435; p = 0.001) and that of HbA1c with albumin (r = –0.271; p = 0.03) and Hb (r = –0.629; p < 0.001) while significant positive correlation of Hb with albumin (r = 0.395; p = 0.002) and HbA1c with FPG (r = 0.415; p = 0.001) were observed.
Conclusion Low albumin levels increase plasma protein glycation, including albumin. Hence, elevated GA levels indicate false elevation of GA in scenario of lowered albumin observed in IDA, similar to HbA1c. Thus, using GA in diabetes mellitus with IDA should be avoided or used with caution to prevent potentially inappropriate treatment intensification and risk of hypoglycemia.

Abstract
Acute and chronic wounds, caused by trauma, tumors, diabetic foot ulcers, etc., are usually difficult to heal, while applying exogenous electrical stimulation to enhance the endogenous electric field in the wound has been proven to significantly accelerate wound healing. However, traditional electrical stimulation devices require an additional external power supply, making them poor in portability and comfort. In this work, a self-powered piezoelectric poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)/polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) composite hydrogel is constructed by establishing a distinctive preparation process of freezing/thawing-solvent replacement-annealing-swelling. The hydrogen bonding in the hydrogel is remarkably enhanced by the annealing-swelling process, which is stronger between PVA/PVDF molecules than that between PVA molecules, promoting transformation of the α-phase into the electroactive β-phase PVDF and facilitating formation of a much more crystalline structure with high cross-linking density. Hence, an obvious piezoelectric response with high piezoelectric coefficient and electrical signal output with superior stability and sensitivity and excellent mechanical strength and stretchability was achieved for hydrogels. PVA/PVDF composite hydrogels with good cytocompatibility significantly promote proliferation, migration, and secretion of extracellular matrix proteins and growth factors of fibroblasts, possibly through activating the AKT and ERK1/2 signaling pathways. In a wound model of diabetic rats, piezoelectric hydrogels could not only rapidly attract wound exudate and maintain the wet environment of the wound bed but also convert the mechanical energy generated by rats' physical activities into electrical energy, so as to provide local piezoelectric stimulation to the wound bed evenly and symmetrically in real time. Such an effect significantly promotes re-epithelialization and collagen deposition and increases angiogenesis and secretion of growth factors in wound tissue. Besides, it regulates the macrophage phenotype from the M1 subtype (pro-inflammatory subtype) to the M2 subtype (anti-inflammatory subtype) and reduces the expression levels of inflammatory factors, thus accelerating wound healing. The development of such a novel piezoelectric hydrogel provides new therapeutic strategies for chronic wound healing.

Abstract
Diabetic retinopathy becomes an increasingly popular cause of vision loss in diabetic patients. Deep learning has recently received attention as one of the most popular methods for boosting performance in a range of sectors, including medical image analysis and classification. The proposed system comprises three steps; they are image preprocessing, image segmentation, and classification. In preprocessing, the image will be resized, denoising the image and enhancing the contrast of the image which is used for further processing. The lesion region of diabetic retinopathy fundus image is segmented by using Feature Fusion-based U-Net architecture. A blood vessel of a retinal image is extracted by using the spatial fuzzy c means clustering (SFCM) algorithm. Finally, the diabetic retinopathy images are classified using a modified capsule network. The convolution and primary capsule layers collect features from fundus images, while the class capsule and softmax layers decide whether the image belongs to a certain class. Using the Messidor dataset, the proposed system’s network efficiency is evaluated in terms of four performance indicators. The modified contrast limited adaptive histogram equalization technique enhanced the Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR), mean square error, and Structural Similarity Index Measure (SSIM) have average values of 36.18, 6.15, and 0.95, respectively. After enhancing the image, segmentation is performed to segment the vessel and lesion region. The segmentation accuracy is measured for the proposed segmentation algorithm by using two metrics namely intersection over union (IoU) and Dice similarity coefficient. Then modified capsule network is constructed for classifying the stages of diabetic retinopathy. The experimental result shows that the proposed modified capsule network got 98.57% of classification accuracy.

Irisin Promotes Osteogenesis by Modulating Oxidative Stress and Mitophagy through SIRT3 Signaling under Diabetic Conditions. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2022; 2022:3319056.

Abstract
Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) accumulate in the bone tissue of patients with diabetes mellitus, resulting in oxidative stress, poor bone healing, or regeneration. Irisin, a novel exercise-induced myokine, is involved in the regulation of bone metabolism. However, the effects of irisin on adipose-derived stem cell (ASC) osteogenic differentiation and bone healing under diabetic conditions remain poorly understood. ASCs were obtained from inguinal fat of Sprague-Dawley rats and treated with different concentrations of AGEs and irisin. Cell proliferation, apoptosis, and osteogenic differentiation abilities of ASCs were detected. To explore the regulatory role of sirtuin 3 (SIRT3), ASCs were transfected with lentivirus-mediated SIRT3 overexpression or knockdown vectors. Next, we investigated mitochondrial functions, mitophagy, and mitochondrial biogenesis in different groups. Moreover, SOD2 acetylation and potential signaling pathways were assessed. Additionally, a diabetic rat model was used to evaluate the effect of irisin on bone healing in calvarial critical-sized defects (CSDs) in vivo. Our results showed that irisin incubation mitigated the inhibitory effects of AGEs on ASCs by increasing cell viability and promoting osteogenesis. Moreover, irisin modulated mitochondrial membrane potential, intracellular ROS levels, mitochondrial O2·− status, ATP generation, complex I and IV activities, mitophagy, and mitochondrial biogenesis via a SIRT3-mediated pathway under AGEs exposure. Furthermore, in calvarial CSDs of diabetic rats, transplantation of gels encapsulating irisin-pretreated ASCs along with irisin largely enhanced bone healing. These findings suggest that irisin attenuates AGE-induced ASC dysfunction through SIRT3-mediated maintenance of oxidative stress homeostasis and regulation of mitophagy and mitochondrial biogenesis. Thus, our studies shed new light on the role of irisin in promoting the ASC osteogenesis and targeting SIRT3 as a novel therapeutic intervention strategy for bone regeneration under diabetic conditions.

Abstract
Evidence for the anti-diabetic actions of camellia and herbal tea in diabetic patients has not been summarized. Several data sources were searched for randomized trials assessing the effect of different teas on cardiometabolic risk factors in T2D subjects. Two independent reviewers extracted relevant data and assessed the risk of bias. Results were summarized using mean differences (MDs) based on a random model. Sixteen studies (19 trials, N = 832) fulfilled the eligibility criteria. Mean differences were measured for body weight, body mass index, fasting blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, a homeostatic model for insulin resistance, high and low-density lipoproteins, triglycerides, and systolic and diastolic blood pressure. No effects on total cholesterol and waist circumference were observed when either camellia or herbal tea was consumed. Tea produced moderate regulatory effects on adipose, glycemic control, lipid profiles, and blood pressure. In terms of efficacy, camellia and herbal teas yield different benefits in regulating metabolism. This discovery has some implications for clinical research and drug development. However, more high-quality trials are needed to improve the certainty of our estimates.

Abstract
In addition to oxidative stress and impaired angiogenesis, the overexpression of metalloproteinases (MMPs) and proinflammatory cytokines, which are promoted by hyperglycemia, causes chronic inflammation in diabetic wounds. Herein, TA-siRNA nanogels are prepared for the first time on the basis of the self-assembling interaction between tannic acid (TA) and short interfering RNA (siRNA). The efficient, biodegradable nanogels are cross-linked with poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), human-like collagen (HLC), TA, and borax to prepare adaptive, conductive PHTB (TA-siRNA) hydrogels. In response to high levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), the ROS-responsive borate ester bonds in the hydrogels are oxidized and broken, and TA-siRNA nanogels are released into cells to reduce the expression of the MMP-9. Moreover, the TA and HLC promote collagen expression, reduce inflammation, and ROS level. It is found that electrical stimulation (ES) promotes the in vivo release of TA-siRNA nanogels from PHTB (TA-siRNA) hydrogels and endocytosis of the nanogels. The combination therapy using ES and PHTB (TA-siRNA) hydrogels accelerates the healing of diabetic wounds by reducing the levels of ROS and MMP-9 and promoting the polarization of macrophages, production of collagen, and angiogenesis. This study provides insights on the design of functional gene-delivery and efficient therapeutic strategies to promote the repair of diabetic chronic wounds.

Abstract
Aldose reductase (AR) is the first enzyme of the polyol pathway that has physiological importance under hyperglycaemic conditions. The article has been focussed on AR enzyme inhibition by selected compounds. For this purpose, the in vitro inhibitory effects of various compounds on commercially available recombinant human AR (rAR) enzyme activity were investigated. The IC50 values of compounds on rAR inhibition effect were found for 6-hydroxy flavone, syringic acid, diosmetin, 6-fluoroflavone, 7-hydroxy-4'-nitroisoflavone, myricetin as 2.05, 2.97, 15.75, 16.1, 49.5, and 63 µM, respectively. 6-Hydroxy flavone and syringic acid competitively inhibited rAR with respect to the NADPH with Ki values 0.509 ± 0.036 and 0.842 ± 0.012 µM. In addition, docking studies were performed to evaluate the potential enzyme binding positions of the compounds. Our in vitro and in silico results indicated that the 6-hydroxy flavone may be a good lead compound in the development of AR inhibitors to prevent diabetic complications.

Interaction analysis of lipid accumulation product and family history of diabetes on impaired fasting glucose and diabetes risk in population with normotension in Eastern China: a community-based cross-sectional survey. Arch Public Health 2022; 80:217. [PMID: 36183132 PMCID: PMC9526958 DOI: 10.1186/s13690-022-00972-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/30/2021] [Accepted: 09/23/2022] [Indexed: 11/08/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Lipid accumulation product (LAP) is considered to be a new convenient useful indicator to assess the visceral fat. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the risk factors of impaired fasting glucose (IFG) and diabetes, and explore the possible interacting influences of LAP with other factors on the risk of IFG and diabetes among Chinese normotension adults. METHODS A multistage stratified cluster sampling method was conducted to select urban residents in Bengbu, China. For each eligible participant, data on questionnaire survey, anthropometric measurements and laboratory tests were obtained. The effects of body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), waist to height ratio (WHtR) and LAP for predicting IFG and diabetes were performed by multiple logistic regressions and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analyses. The interaction effects were evaluated by relative excess risk of interaction (RERI), attributable proportion due to interaction (AP) and synergy index (SI). RESULTS Six thousand, four hundred sixty-seven normotension subjects (2695 men and 3772 women) were enrolled in our study, the prevalence of IFG and diabetes were 9.37% and 14.33%, respectively. When assessed using ROC curve analysis, LAP exhibited higher diagnostic accuracy for identifying IFG and diabetes than BMI, the area under the AUC curve was 0.650 (95% CI: 0.637 to 0.662). After adjustment for age, sex, educational level and other confounding factors, multivariate logistic regression analyses indicated that subjects with the fourth quartile of LAP were more likely to develop IFG (adjusted OR: 2.735, 95% CI: 1.794-4.170) and diabetes (adjusted OR: 1.815, 95% CI: 1.297-2.541) than those with the first quartile. A significant interaction between LAP and family history of diabetes was observed in participants (RERI = 1.538, 95%CI: 0.167 to 3.612; AP = 0.375, 95%CI: 0.118 to 0.631; SI = 1.980, 95%CI: 1.206 to 3.251). However, a significant interaction between LAP and abdominal obesity was indicated by the value of RERI (1.492, 95%CI: 0.087 to 3.723) and AP (0.413, 95%CI: 0.014 to 0.756), but not the value of SI (1.824, 95%CI: 0.873 to 3.526). CONCLUSION Our results demonstrated that there might be synergistic effect between LAP and family history of diabetes on the risk of IFG and diabetes.

Abstract
Diabetes is among the most prevalent diseases of the modern world and is strongly linked to an increased risk of numerous neurodegenerative disorders, although the exact pathophysiological mechanisms are not clear yet. Insulin resistance is a serious pathological condition, connecting type 2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome, and obesity. Recently, insulin resistance has been proven to be connected also to cognitive decline and dementias, including the most prevalent form, Alzheimer's disease. The relationship between diabetes and Alzheimer's disease regarding pathophysiology is so significant that it has been proposed that some presentations of the condition could be termed type 3 diabetes.

Abstract
Obesity is becoming more widespread, and epidemics of this condition are now considered present in all developed countries, leading to public health concerns. The dramatic increases in obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and related vascular difficulties are causing a public health crisis. Thus, it is imperative that these trends are curbed. Understanding the molecular underpinnings of these diseases is crucial to aiding in their detection or even management. Thus, understanding the mechanisms underlying the interactions between environment, lifestyle, and genetics is important for developing effective strategies for the management of obesity. The focus is on finding the vital role of epigenetic changes in the etiology of obesity. Genome and epigenome-wide approaches have revealed associations with T2DM. The epigenome indicates that there is a systematic link between genetic variants and environmental factors that put people at risk of obesity. The present review focuses on the epigenetic mechanism linked with obesity-associated T2DM. Although the utilization of epigenetic treatments has been discussed with reference to certain cancers, several challenges remain to be addressed for T2DM.

Abstract
Hyperhimatins A-P (1-16), sixteen new bicyclic polyprenylated acylphloroglucinols (BPAPs), were isolated and identified from Hypericum himalaicum. The planner structures of hyperhimatins A-P were confirmed via extensive NMR and careful HRESIMS data analysis. The absolute configurations of the new compounds were mainly determined by electronic circular dichroism (ECD) calculation, NMR calculation, and the circular dichroism data of the in situ formed [Rh2(OCOCF3)4] complexes. All compounds were assessed for the glucose transporter 4 (GLUT-4) translocation and expression enhancing effects in L6 myotubes. Compounds 1-16 could promote the GLUT-4 expression by the range of 1.95-6.04 folds, and accelerate the GLUT-4 fusion with the plasma membrane ranged from 53.56% to 76.97% at a consistence of 30 μg/mL, among compound 10 displayed the strongest GLUT-4 translocation effect.

Abstract
Cardio-renal and metabolic modifications during gestation are crucial determinants of foetal and maternal health in the short and long term. The cardio-renal metabolic syndrome is a vicious circle that starts in the presence of risk factors such as obesity, hypertension, diabetes, kidney disease and ageing, all predisposing to a status dominated by increased arterial stiffness and alteration of the vascular wall, which eventually damages the target organs, such as the heart and kidneys. The literature is scarce regarding cardio-renal metabolic syndrome in pregnancy cohorts. The present paper exposes the current state of the art and emphasises the most important findings of this entity, particularly in pregnant women. The early assessment of arterial function can lead to proper and individualised measures for women predisposed to hypertension, pre-eclampsia, eclampsia, and diabetes mellitus. This review focuses on available information regarding the assessment of arterial function during gestation, possible cut-off values, the possible predictive role for future events and modalities to reverse or control its dysfunction, a fact of crucial importance with excellent outcomes at meagre costs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Over 50% of women with a history of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) will develop type 2 diabetes (T2D) in later life. Asian women experience a disproportionate risk of both GDM and T2D compared to women from other ethnic backgrounds. Lifestyle interventions and behavior change can delay or even prevent the onset of T2D. We have developed a digitalized diabetes prevention intervention for the prevention of T2D in Malaysian women with GDM. OBJECTIVE The protocol describes a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to test the feasibility of undertaking a definitive trial of a diabetes prevention intervention, including a smartphone app and group support. Secondary aims are to summarize anthropometric, biomedical, psychological, and lifestyle outcomes overall and by allocation group, and to undertake a process evaluation. METHODS This is a two-arm parallel feasibility RCT. A total of 60 Malaysian women with GDM will be randomized in the antenatal period to receive the intervention or standard care until 12 months post partum. The intervention is a diabetes prevention intervention delivered via a smartphone app developed based on the Information-Motivation-Behavioral Skills model of behavior change and group support using motivational interviewing. The intervention provides women with tailored information and support to encourage weight loss through adapted dietary intake and physical activity. Women in the control arm will receive standard care. The Malaysian Ministry of Health's Medical Research and Ethics Committee has approved the trial (NMRR-21-1667-60212). RESULTS Recruitment and enrollment began in February 2022. Future outcomes will be published in peer-reviewed health-related research journals and presented at national, regional, or state professional meetings and conferences. This publication is based on protocol version 2, January 19, 2022. CONCLUSIONS To our knowledge, this will be the first study in Malaysia that aims to determine the feasibility of a digital intervention in T2D prevention among women with GDM. Findings from this feasibility study will inform the design of a full-scale RCT in the future. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov NCT05204706; https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT05204706.

Abstract
AIM Studies using oral glucose tolerance tests (OGTT) have shown that impaired glucose metabolism presents in the early stages of schizophrenia (SCZ). However, there is a lack of studies on changes in glucose metabolism with the stage of the disease. We first explored the features of glucose metabolic pattern at different phases of male SCZ. METHODS We recruited 83 male first episode drug-naïve patients with SCZ (FEDN-SCZ) and 64 male chronic patients with SCZ (CH-SCZ), as well as 14 male healthy controls. The Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) was used to assess the psychopathology of patients. OGTT, fasting plasma glucose and lipid profiles of all participants were examined. RESULTS While the impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) rate of male SCZ patients was higher than that of HC (P < .05), there was no difference in IGT prevalence between FEDN-SCZ and CH-SCZ. In male FEDN-SCZ, LDL (OR = 2.64, 95% CI = 1.11-6.29, P = .028) and PANSS total score (OR = 1.03, 95% CI = 1.00-1.06, P = .046) were positively correlated with IGT; in male CH-SCZ, BMI (OR = 1.7, 95% CI = 1.08-2.67, P = .023), PANSS total score (OR = 0.82, 95% CI = 0.70-0.96, P = .015) and positive symptoms (OR = 0.45, 95% CI = 0.20-0.99, P = .046) were significantly correlated with IGT. CONCLUSIONS Our findings reflect different glucose metabolism patterns in different stages of SCZ.

Abstract
Osteoporosis (OP) is a bone metabolic disease, in which low bone mass and the microarchitectural deterioration of bone tissue contribute to the fragility of bones and increase the risk of fracture. The aim of the present study was to determine the role of microRNA (miR)-98-5p in high glucose (HG)-induced preosteoblasts. HG was used to induce preosteoblasts treated in a differentiation medium to establish an in vitro OP model. Next, miR-98-5p expression was determined using reverse transcription-quantitative PCR. Following the transfection of an miR-98-5p inhibitor into HG-treated osteoblasts, cell viability was assessed using a Cell Counting Kit-8 assay, while alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, differentiation ability and the expression of differentiation-regulated genes osteocalcin and osteopontin were measured using the corresponding ALP, Alizarin red staining, reverse transcription-quantitative PCR and western blotting assays. The association between miR-98-5p and the PI3K/AKT/GSK3β signaling pathway was determined using western blotting. Next, the binding relationship between miR-98-5p and bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2) was predicted and verified, and the role of BMP2 in the regulation of the PI3K/AKT/GSK3β signaling pathway was explored using western blotting. The results revealed that miR-98-5p expression was upregulated in HG-induced osteoblasts, and the inhibition of miR-98-5p resulted in enhanced cell viability, alkaline phosphatase activity and differentiation in osteoblasts following HG induction. It was also discovered that miR-98-5p inhibition activated PI3K/AKT/GSK3β signaling, while knockdown of BMP2, which binds to miR-98-5p, enhanced the activation of this signaling pathway and the differentiation ability of osteoblasts. In conclusion, the findings of the present study suggested that the inhibition of miR-98-5p expression may activate PI3K/AKT/GSK3β signaling to promote HG-induced suppression of preosteoblast viability and differentiation by targeting BMP2, which provides a novel insight into future potential molecular markers for OP treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Type 2 Diabetes Miletus (T2DM) is a public health burdens that alarmingly increases and leads to morbidity and mortality over the last decades globally. Its management is multifaceted and adherence to diabetic medications plays great roles in life of T2DM patients. But epidemiology on adherence and its associated factors remain unknown in Rwanda. Therefore, this study determined the extent of non-adherence and its predictors among T2DM patients seeking healthcare services at the Clinique Medicale la Fraternite. METHODS A cross-sectional study among 200 adults' patients with T2DM receiving care in the Medicale la Fraternite clinic was investigated. Bivariate and multivariate logistic regression models were performed based on odds ratio employed to examine associated predictors of non-adherence. The cut-off value for all statistical significances tests were considered at p < 0.05 with 95% for the confidence intervals. RESULTS Overall, more than a half of T2DM patients (53.5%) had poor medication adherence. Being females [OR = 2.1, 95%CI(1.13-3.71), p = 0.002], consuming anti-diabetic drugs for 4-10 years [OR = 2.18, 95%CI(1.09-4.34), p = 0.027], experiencing poor communication with healthcare providers [OR = 2.4; 95%CI (1.36-4.25), p = 0.003] and being perceived as burden of the family [OR = 5.8; 95%CI(1.3-25.7), p < 0.021] had higher odds of non-adherence to anti-diabetic medications. Those with poor HbA1C [OR = 4.26; 95%CI(1.7-10.67), p = 0.002] had 4.26 times higher odds to be non-adherent compared to those with good HbA1C. Respondents with primary [OR = 3.56; 95%CI (1.12-11.28), p = 0.031] and secondary education [OR = 2.96; 95%CI (1.11-7.87), p = 0.03] were more likely to be non-adherent than those with informal education respectively. Those with normal BMI [OR = 5.17; 95%CI(1.63-16.37), p = 0.005] and those with overweight or obese [OR = 3.6; 95%CI (1.04-9.1), p < 0.02] had higher odds of being non-adherent than those with underweight. CONCLUSION Sex, glycaemia, communication with healthcare providers, education and gycosylated hemoglobin were the major predictors of non-adherence. Interventions for tackling this problem through bringing together efforts to stem this epidemic and controlling predictors of non-adherence are urgently recommended.

Associations of Serum Total 25OHD, 25OHD3, and epi-25OHD3 with Insulin Resistance: Cross-Sectional Analysis of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, 2011–2016. Nutrients 2022; 14:nu14173526. [PMID: 36079784 PMCID: PMC9459885 DOI: 10.3390/nu14173526] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/13/2022] [Revised: 08/23/2022] [Accepted: 08/23/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Vitamin D may have a role in insulin sensitivity. However, the data on the association between various metabolites of Vitamin D and insulin-related parameters have been limited. Methods: We identified 6026 adults aged 20–80 years who participated in the 2011–2016 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Serum total 25OHD, 25OHD3, and epi-25OHD3, fasting glucose, insulin, and HOMA2-IR were obtained from the NHANES data. The association between serum Vitamin D-related values and insulin resistance was analyzed using a generalized linear model. For risk analysis, multifactorial logistic regression was used. Results: The median total 25-hydroxyvitamin D level, 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 level, and 3-epi-25-hydroxyvitamin D3 level were 62.5 nmol/L, 58.8 nmol/L, and 3.3 nmol/L, respectively. After adjustment for sex, age, race, ethnicity, and education status, the ORs for the insulin resistance of participants of total 25-hydroxyvitamin D, 25-hydroxyvitamin D3, and 3-epi-25-hydroxyvitamin D3 were 0.32 (95% CI 0.24, 0.43), 0.34 (95% CI 0.26, 0.44), and 0.64 (95% CI 0.53, 0.77), respectively. After an adjustment for body mass index, diabetes, and drinking and smoking, the ORs for the insulin resistance of the participants for total 25-hydroxyvitamin D, 25-hydroxyvitamin D3, and 3-epi-25-hydroxyvitamin D3 were 0.56 (95% CI 0.40, 0.78), 0.63 (95% CI 0.46, 0.85), and 0.99 (95% CI 0.80, 1.24), respectively. Conclusions: Our study provides suggestive evidence for the association between Vitamin D concentrations and a lower risk of insulin resistance. Evidence from larger and more adequately powered cohort studies is needed to confirm our results.

Abstract
The accumulation of the blood leaks on the retina is known as diabetic macular edema (DME), which can result in irreversible blindness. Early diagnosis and therapy can stop DME. This study presents an e-adoption of emerging technology such as RadioDense model for detecting and classifying DME from retinal fundus images. The proposed model employs a modified version of DenseNet121, radiomics features, and the gradient boosting classifier. The authors evaluated many classifiers on the concatenated features. The efficacy of the classifier is determined by comparing each classifier's accuracy values. According to the evaluation results, the concatenated features extraction using gradient boosting classifier outperforms all other classifiers on the IDRiD dataset. For multi-class classification, the suggested electronic adoption of emerging technology such as RadioDense model outperformed these classifiers and attained an accuracy of 87.4%. It can help to decrease the strain of ophthalmologists diagnosing the DME during locking and unlocking the worldwide lockdown.

Abstract
Impaired wound healing and especially the “all-too-common” occurrence of associated diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) are becoming an increasingly urgent and deteriorating healthcare issue, which drastically impact the quality of life and further heighten the risks of infection and amputation in patients with diabetes mellitus. Amongst the multifactorial wound healing determinants, glycemic dysregulation has been identified to be the primary casual factor of poor wound healing. Unfortunately, current therapeutic modalities merely serve as moderate symptomatic relieves but often fail to completely restore the wound site to its pre-injury state and prevent further recurrence. Stem cell-based therapeutics have been employed for its promising potential to address the root of the problem as they not only exhibit the capacity for self-renewal and differentiation towards multiple lineages, but also have been disclosed to participate in mediating variant growth factors and cytokines. Herein we review the current literatures on the therapeutic benefits of using various kinds of stem cells, including embryonic stem cells (ESCs), induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), and adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) in diabetic wound healing by searching on the PubMed® Database for publications. This study shall serve as an overview of the current body of research with particular focus on autologous ASCs and the laboratory expandable iPSCs in hope of shedding more light on this attractive therapy so as to elevate the efficacy of wound healing that is almost always compromised in diabetic patients.

Abstract
The care of individuals with diabetes needs a holistic perspective, taking into account both the physical disease and the mental health problems that may be associated. Different studies show a higher prevalence of depression or anxiety issues in diabetes patients than in the general population, which is why diabetes can be considered one of the chronic diseases in which psychological care is crucial to maintain quality of life. The objective of this review is to examine the published articles that relate the bidirectional associations between objective and subjective measures of anxiety, depressive symptomatology, stress, sleep quality, and salivary biomarkers in patients with diabetes. For this, a search was carried out in the electronic databases PubMed, Cochrane, and SCOPUS using the keywords "diabetes", "saliva", "sleep", "anxiety", "depression", and "stress" for works published up until May 2022 and limited to the English and Spanish languages. The sample comprised 14 articles, 5 of which analysed the associations between depressive symptomatology and salivary biomarkers in people with diabetes. Among the salivary biomarkers most frequently used to evaluate psychological alterations in persons with diabetes are cortisol and melatonin. Thus, significant changes in the levels of these biomarkers were observed in most studies. Four out of five studies reported a statistically significant relationship between increased salivary cortisol in the evening/midnight or the cortisol awakening response and depressive symptoms. In contrast, lower cortisol levels upon waking in the morning were observed when there was no depression or anxiety. Regarding the association between salivary cortisol values and sleep quality in patients with diabetes, lower morning cortisol values related to prolonged nighttime sleep were common in the analysed studies. Low melatonin concentrations showed a negative correlation with sleep quality. As it is an easy-to-apply and non-invasive method, the measurement of salivary biomarkers can be very useful for predicting psychological alterations in patients with diabetes. Further scientific studies are required to determine the sensitivity of these biological substances acting as biomarkers for detecting sleep disorders and psychological alterations.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a severe disease caused by metabolic disorders, particularly carbohydrate metabolism disorders. The disease is a fatal global trouble characterised by high prevalence rates, causing death, blindness, kidney failure, myocardial infarction, amputation of lower limps, and stroke. Biochemical metabolic pathways like glycolysis, gluconeogenesis, glycogenesis, and glycogenolysis are critical pathways that regulate blood glucose levels with the glucokinase (GK) enzyme playing a central role in glucose homeostasis. Any factor that perturbs the aforementioned biochemical pathways is detrimental. Endocrinological, neurophysiological, and molecular biological pathways that are linked to carbohydrate metabolism should be studied, grasped, and manipulated in order to alleviate T2DM global chaos. The challenge, howbeit, is that, since the body is an integration of systems that complement one another, studying one “isolated” system is not very useful. This paper serves to discuss endocrinology, neurophysiology, and molecular biology pathways that are involved in carbohydrate metabolism in relation to T2DM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study conducted a meta-analysis to compare the effectiveness and safety of the negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) with the moist wound care (MWC) in the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs). METHODS The PubMed, EMBASE, and CENTRAL were searched by 2 of the authors, to identify randomized controlled trials comparing the clinical outcomes of patients treated with NPWT versus MWC for DFUs. Meta-analyses were performed for several outcomes, including wound healing results, amputation or resection incidence, and risk of adverse events, utilizing the "meta" package of R language version 4.0.3. RESULTS A total of 10 trials (619 patients in NPWT group and 625 in MWC group) and 8 trials were included for the qualitative and quantitative syntheses, respectively. As a result, significantly lower risk of non-closure of the wound (risk ratio [RR] = 0.74, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.63-0.87; P = .001), lower average wound area (standard mean difference = -0.80, 95% CI: -1.54 to -0.06; P = .034), more wound area decrease (standard mean difference = 0.81, 95% CI: 0.36-1.26; P = .001), increased appearance rate of granulation tissue (RR = 1.61, 95% CI: 1.07-2.41; P-0.021), and lower risk of amputation or resection (RR = 0.70, 95% CI: 0.50-0.99; P = .045), were demonstrated for the NPWT group when compared to MWC group. However, no statistically significant difference was found for the disappearance rate of wound discharge at 8 weeks, the rate of blood culture positivity, VAS-pain score, and the overall frequency of adverse events between the 2 treatment groups (P = .05). CONCLUSION NPWT could accelerate process of the wound healing, and decrease the risk of post-treatment amputation or resection, without any additional frequency of adverse events, when compared with MWC, in patients with DFUs.

Abstract
The quest for novel anti-diabetic medication from medicinal plants is very important since they contain bioactive phytochemicals that offer better activity and safety compared to conventional therapy. In the present study, in vitro, in vivo and in silico approaches were explored to evaluate the anti-inflammatory, antioxidants, and hypoglycemic activities of the crude methanol extract of Azanza garckeana pulp. Our in vitro analysis revealed that the extract contains total phenols (260.80 ± 2.23 mg/100 g) and total flavonoids (10.28 ± 1.29 mg/100 g) contents, and demonstrated dose-dependent in vitro antioxidants activities in; DPPH (IC50 =141.30 ± 1.64 µg/mL), FRAP (IC50 =155.07 ± 1.03 µg/mL), LPO (IC50 =184.96 ± 2.01 µg/mL), and ABTS (IC50 =162.56 ± 1.14 µg/mL) assays; anti-inflammatory activities in: membrane stabilization (IC50 =141.34 ± 0.46 µg/mL), protein denaturation (IC50 =203.61 ± 2.35 µg/mL) and proteinase activities (IC50=f 171.35 ± 1.56 µg/mL) assays; and hypoglycemic activities in: α- amylase (IC50 277.85 ± 2.51 µg/mL), and glucose uptake by yeast cells assays. In vivo analysis revealed that the extract exhibited dose-dependent anti-inflammatory, hypoglycemic activities and improved the weight gain in STZ-induced diabetic rats. In addition, the extract attenuated oxidative stress and increased the activities of SOD, catalase, GSH while depleting the level of LPO in STZ induced diabetic rats. Consequently, the liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC-MS) characterization of A. garckeana pulp, revealed the presence of 2-Hexadecen-1-ol,3,7,11,15-tetramethyl-,(2E,7 R,11 R)-, nonyl flavanone, testolactone and 6-(Benzyloxy)- 4,4-Dimethyl-2-Chromanone. These compounds were subjected to pharmacoinformatics analysis among which testolactone and 6-(Benzyloxy)- 4,4-Dimethyl-2-Chromanone demonstrated the best drug-likeness, pharmacokinetics, and also exhibited potential hypoglycemic and anti-inflammatory properties. Altogether, the present study provides preclinical evidence of the antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antidiabetic activities of A. garckeana extract suggesting its potential applications for the development of alternative therapy for diabetes and its associated inflammatory condition.

Luteolin-Rich Extract of Thespesia garckeana F. Hoffm. (Snot Apple) Contains Potential Drug-Like Candidates and Modulates Glycemic and Oxidoinflammatory Aberrations in Experimental Animals. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2022; 2022:1215097. [PMID: 35941904 PMCID: PMC9356851 DOI: 10.1155/2022/1215097] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/23/2022] [Revised: 06/16/2022] [Accepted: 07/13/2022] [Indexed: 12/16/2022]
Abstract
The present study evaluated the polyphenolic contents and hypoglycemic, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory effects of the diethyl ether fraction of Thespesia garckeana using various in vitro and in vivo models. Total phenol and flavonoid contents of the extract were
and
mg/100 g dry weight, respectively. The extract exhibited in vitro antioxidant activities against DPPH, FRAP, LPO, and ABTS with respective half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) values of
,
,
, and
μg/mL. In vitro anti-inflammatory studies using membrane stabilization, protein denaturation, and proteinase activities revealed the effectiveness of the extract with respective IC50 values of
,
, and
μg/mL, while in vitro hypoglycemic analysis of the extract revealed inhibition of α-amylase (IC50
μg/mL) and enhancement of glucose uptake by yeast cells. Interestingly, the extract demonstrated in vivo hypoglycemic and anti-inflammatory effects in streptozotocin- (STZ-) induced diabetic and xylene-induced ear swelling models, respectively. In addition, the extract improved insulin secretion, attenuated pancreatic tissue distortion and oxidative stress, and increased the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase, and reduced glutathione (GSH), while reducing the concentration of LPO in the diabetic rats. A high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis identified the presence of catechin (
ppm), rutin (
ppm), myricetin, apigenin (
ppm), and luteolin (15.09 ppm) with respective retention times (RTs) of 13.64, 24.269, 27.781, 29.58, and 32.23 min, and these were subjected to a pharmacoinformatics analysis, which revealed their drug-likeness and good pharmacokinetic properties. A docking analysis hinted at the potential of luteolin, the most abundant compound in the extract, for targeting glucose-metabolizing enzymes. Thus, the present study provides preclinical insights into the bioactive constituents of T. garckeana, its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, and its potential for the treatment of diabetes.

Abstract
In Egypt, diabetes mellitus (DM) is a significant public health concern, and the disease is considered a modern pandemic throughout the world. The incidence of diabetes is steadily climbing, which is causing grave concern. As a result, it is essential to take into consideration the risk factors that are pervasive in Egyptian society and have led to the worsening of this problem. These risk factors include sedentary lifestyles, obesity, hepatitis C infections, pesticides, smoking, and bad cultural habits. In this review, we aim to demonstrate the possible solutions to fight diabetes mellitus and overcome its serious health and socioeconomic burdens in Egypt. A multidisciplinary, team-based approach is highly recommended in diabetes management. Primary care physicians, endocrinologists, nephrologists, and preventive cardiologists all play a crucial role in providing the highest possible level of care to diabetic patients by collaborating closely with one another. The assessment of cardiovascular risk and the prevention of life-threatening cardiovascular events, common among diabetic patients, warrant the introduction of preventive cardiology, a new and significant concept in diabetes care that demands adoption. The integration of preventive cardiology into the treatment of diabetic patients is expected to significantly cut down the morbidity and mortality rates associated with diabetes mellitus and provide them with a better quality of life.

Pedal arterial calcification score is associated with hemodynamic change and major amputation after infrainguinal revascularization for chronic limb-threatening ischemia. J Vasc Surg 2022; 76:1688-1697.e3. [PMID: 35850162 DOI: 10.1016/j.jvs.2022.07.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/04/2022] [Revised: 07/01/2022] [Accepted: 07/02/2022] [Indexed: 01/10/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Pedal medial arterial calcification (pMAC) is associated with major amputation in patients with CLTI. We hypothesize this association is related to unresolved distal ischemia. We investigated relationships across pMAC score, hemodynamic change, and major amputation following infrainguinal revascularization for CLTI. METHODS This is a single-institution retrospective study of 306 patients who underwent technically successful infrainguinal revascularization for CLTI (2011-2020) and had foot x-rays for blinded pMAC scoring (0-5). 136 (44%) had toe pressure measurements performed within 90 days before and 60 days after revascularization. Ischemia grade (0-3) was assigned using the SVS WIfI system. RESULTS Revascularization approach was open bypass in 118 (38%) and endovascular in 188 (62%) patients. pMAC scores were trichotomized [0-1 (125; 41%), 2-4 (116; 38%), 5 (65; 21%)]. Post-revascularization WIfI ischemia grade was improved in 78/136 (57%) and unchanged/worsened in 58/136 (43%). Lower pMAC score was associated with hemodynamic improvement (p=0.004). Failure to improve the ischemia grade was associated with major amputation (p=0.0002) In the endovascular subgroup, WIfI ischemia grade was improved in 43/90 (48%) with available measurements, and 37/188 (20%) underwent major amputation. In a multivariate logistic model, pMAC 5 was the only factor independently associated with unimproved ischemia grade after endovascular treatment [OR 4.0 (1.1-16.6), p=0.04]. In a Cox proportional hazards model, factors independently associated with major amputation after endoluminal revascularization were WIfI stage 4 [HR 2.7 (1.3-5.7), p=0.007] and pMAC score [pMAC 2-4: HR 10.6 (1.4-80.7), p=0.02; pMAC 5: HR 15.5 (2.0-119), p=0.008]. In the bypass subgroup, WIfI ischemia grade was improved in 35/46 (76%) with available measurements but was not associated with pMAC score (p=0.88) or any other baseline patient or limb characteristics. 19/118 (16%) underwent major amputation. In a Cox proportional hazards model including bypass conduit, WIfI stage, and pMAC score; the only factor independently associated with major amputation after bypass was use of non-autologous conduit [HR 5.6 (1.8-17.6), p=0.003]. CONCLUSION The pMAC score is independently associated with persistent distal ischemia and major amputation after technically successful revascularization for CLTI. These data suggest that pMAC may be a marker for hemodynamic response to revascularization and risk of limb loss, and it may have a stronger influence on the outcome of endoluminal interventions.

Abstract
One of the most significant challenges of diabetes health care is diabetic foot ulcers (DFU). DFUs are more challenging to cure, and this is particularly true for people who already have a compromised immune system. Pathogenic bacteria and fungi are becoming more resistant to antibiotics, so they may be unable to fight microbial infections at the wound site with the antibiotics we have now. This article discusses the dressings, topical antibacterial treatment, medications and debridement techniques used for DFU and provides a deep discussion of DFU and its associated problems. English-language publications on DFU were gathered from many different databases, such as Scopus, Web of Science, Science Direct, Springer Nature, and Google Scholar. For the treatment of DFU, a multidisciplinary approach involving the use of diagnostic equipment, skills, and experience is required. Preventing amputations starts with patient education and the implementation of new categorization systems. The microbiota involved in DFU can be better understood using novel diagnostic techniques, such as the 16S-ribosomal DNA sequence in bacteria. This could be achieved by using new biological and molecular treatments that have been shown to help prevent infections, to control local inflammation, and to improve the healing process.

Wang D, Zhang Y, Xu M, Sun X, Cui X, Wang X, Liu D. Dietary Bacillus licheniformis improves the effect of Astragalus membranaceus extract on blood glucose by regulating antioxidation activity and intestinal microbiota in InR[E19]/TM2 Drosophila melanogaster. PLoS One 2022; 17:e0271177. [PMID: 35830425 PMCID: PMC9278782 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0271177] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/26/2021] [Accepted: 06/24/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The diabetes mellitus prevalence is rapidly increasing in most parts of the world and has become a vital health problem. Probiotic and herbal foods are valuable in the treatment of diabetes. Methods and performance In this study, Bacillus licheniformis (BL) and Astragalus membranaceus extract (AE) were given with food to InR[E19]/TM2 Drosophila melanogaster, and the blood glucose, antioxidation activity and intestinal microbiota were investigated. The obtained results showed that BA (BL and AE combination) supplementation markedly decreased the blood glucose concentration compared with the standard diet control group, accompanied by significantly increased enzymatic activities of catalase (CAT), decreased MDA levels and prolonged lifespan of InR[E19]/TM2 D. melanogaster. The treatments with BL, AE and BA also ameliorated intestinal microbiota equilibrium by increasing the population of Lactobacillus and significantly decreasing the abundance of Wolbachia. In addition, clearly different evolutionary clusters were found among the control, BL, AE and BA-supplemented diets, and the beneficial microbiota, Lactobacillaceae and Acetobacter, were found to be significantly increased in male flies that were fed BA. These results indicated that dietary supplementation with AE combined with BL not only decreased blood glucose but also extended the lifespan, with CAT increasing, MDA decreasing, and intestinal microbiota improving in InR[E19]/TM2 D. melanogaster. Conclusion The obtained results showed that dietary supplementation with BL and AE, under the synergistic effect of BL and AE, not only prolonged the lifespan of InR[E19]/TM2 D. melanogaster, increased body weight, and improved the body’s antiaging enzyme activity but also effectively improved the types and quantities of beneficial bacteria in the intestinal flora of InR[E19]/TM2 D. melanogaster to improve the characteristics of diabetes symptoms. This study provides scientific evidence for a safe and effective dietary therapeutic method for diabetes mellitus.
