Abstract
BACKGROUND Monogenic diabetes often occurs as a result of single-gene mutations. The illness is minimally affected by environmental and behavioral factors, and it constitutes around one to five percent of all cases of diabetes. METHODS Newborn diabetes mellitus (NDM) and maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) are the predominant causes of monogenic diabetes, accounting for a larger proportion of cases, while syndromic diabetes represents a smaller percentage. MODY, a group of inherited non-autoimmune diabetes mellitus disorders, is quite common. However, it remains frequently misdiagnosed despite increasing public awareness. The condition is characterized by insulin resistance, the development of diabetes at a young age (before 25 years), mild high blood sugar levels, inheritance in an autosomal dominant pattern, and the preservation of natural insulin production. RESULTS Currently, there are 14 distinct subtypes of MODY that have been identified. Each subtype possesses distinct characteristics in terms of their frequency, clinical symptoms, severity of diabetes, related complications, and response to medicinal interventions. Due to the clinical similarities, lack of awareness, and high expense of genetic testing, distinguishing between type I (T1D) and type II diabetes mellitus (T2D) can be challenging, resulting in misdiagnosis of this type of diabetes. As a consequence, a significant number of individuals are being deprived of adequate medical attention. Accurate diagnosis enables the utilization of novel therapeutic strategies and enhances the management of therapy in comparison to type II and type I diabetes. CONCLUSION This article offers a concise overview of the clinical subtypes and characteristics of monogenic diabetes. Furthermore, this article discusses the various subtypes of MODY, as well as the process of diagnosing, managing, and treating the condition. It also addresses the difficulties encountered in detecting and treating MODY.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetes has severe impacts on the health of patients. The differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) into islet-like cell clusters (ICCs) is an effective protocol for the treatment of diabetes. microRNAs (miRs) regulate multiple cellular processes including cell differentiation. This study sought to identify the mechanism of miR-365-3p in the differentiation of bone marrow MSCs (bMSCs) into ICCs. METHODS Initially, the differentiation of bMSCs into ICCs was induced. Then, the miR-365-3p expression pattern in the bMSCs and ICCs was detected. Next, the miR-365-3p expression pattern was silenced in bMSCs to assess the effect on differentiation efficiency and measure the expressions of ICC marker genes during the differentiation of bMSCs into ICCs. The miR-365-3p downstream target genes were predicted and verified. Paired box protein 6 (Pax6) was downregulated in bMSCs with silenced miR-365-3p to evaluate the differentiation of bMSCs into ICCs. Furthermore, the Pax6 downstream pathway was evaluated. RESULTS The differentiation of bMSCs into ICCs was successfully induced. The miR-365-3p expression in bMSCs was higher than that in ICCs. miR-365-3p downregulation in bMSCs facilitated the differentiation of bMSCs into ICCs, as evidenced by elevated releases of insulin and C-peptide in ICCs and elevated expressions of ICC marker genes. Our findings denoted that miR-365-3p targeted Pax6. Inhibition of Pax6 expression annulled the promotion of miR-365-3p downregulation on the differentiation of bMSCs into ICCs. Increased phosphorylation levels of MEK and ERK were identified in ICCs after downregulation of miR-365-3p however they were decreased after downregulation of Pax6. CONCLUSIONS This study supported that miR-365-3p inhibited the differentiation of bMSCs into ICCs via targeting Pax6 and inhibiting the MEK/ERK pathway.

Abstract
Objective With the high prevalence of pediatric obesity and overlapping features between diabetes subtypes, accurately classifying youth-onset diabetes can be challenging. We aimed to develop prediction models that, using characteristics available at diabetes diagnosis, can identify youth who will retain endogenous insulin secretion at levels consistent with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Methods We studied 2,966 youth with diabetes in the prospective SEARCH study (diagnosis age ≤19 years) to develop prediction models to identify participants with fasting c-peptide ≥250 pmol/L (≥0.75ng/ml) after >3 years (median 74 months) of diabetes duration. Models included clinical measures at baseline visit, at a mean diabetes duration of 11 months (age, BMI, sex, waist circumference, HDL-C), with and without islet autoantibodies (GADA, IA-2A) and a Type 1 Diabetes Genetic Risk Score (T1DGRS). Results Models using routine clinical measures with or without autoantibodies and T1DGRS were highly accurate in identifying participants with c-peptide ≥0.75 ng/ml (17% of participants; 2.3% and 53% of those with and without positive autoantibodies) (area under receiver operator curve [AUCROC] 0.95-0.98). In internal validation, optimism was very low, with excellent calibration (slope=0.995-0.999). Models retained high performance for predicting retained c-peptide in older youth with obesity (AUCROC 0.88-0.96), and in subgroups defined by self-reported race/ethnicity (AUCROC 0.88-0.97), autoantibody status (AUCROC 0.87-0.96), and clinically diagnosed diabetes types (AUCROC 0.81-0.92). Conclusion Prediction models combining routine clinical measures at diabetes diagnosis, with or without islet autoantibodies or T1DGRS, can accurately identify youth with diabetes who maintain endogenous insulin secretion in the range associated with type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
Worldwide, diabetes and its complications have seriously affected people's quality of life and become a serious public health problem. C-peptide is not only an indicator of pancreatic β-cell function, but also a biologically active peptide that can bind to cell membrane surface signaling molecules and activate downstream signaling pathways to play antioxidant, anti-apoptotic and inflammatory roles, or regulate cellular transcription through internalization. It is complex how C-peptide is related to diabetic complications. Both deficiencies and overproduction can lead to complications, but their mechanisms of action may be different. C-peptide replacement therapy has shown beneficial effects on diabetic complications in animal models when C-peptide is deficient, but results from clinical trials have been unsatisfactory. The complex pattern of the relationship between C-peptide and diabetic chronic complications has not yet been fully understood. Future basic and clinical studies of C-peptide replacement therapies will need to focus on baseline levels of C-peptide in addition to more attention also needs to be paid to post-treatment C-peptide levels to explore the optimal range of fasting C-peptide and postprandial C-peptide maintenance.

Abstract
Objective To explore the incidence and influencing factors of postoperative hypoglycemia in diabetic patients during the perioperative period and to construct a risk prediction model for postoperative hypoglycemia. Methods Patients with T2DM admitted to the nonendocrinology department of Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital from December 2019 to January 2022 were included as research subjects. Basic information, hospital blood glucose management methods, laboratory indicators, and surgery-related indicators were collected. A risk prediction model and scoring table for postoperative hypoglycemia in patients with perioperative diabetes mellitus were established. Results A total of 440 patients were included, of which 109 had hypoglycemia, resulting in an incidence of postoperative hypoglycemia of 24.78%. The results show that preoperative C-peptide and operation duration were risk factors for postoperative hypoglycemia, while BMI and preoperative fasting blood glucose were protective factors. Conclusion The model constructed in this study is a good method for evaluating the risk of postoperative hypoglycemia. The scoring table intuitively quantifies the risk of risk factors for outcome variables and has strong clinical practicability.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the clinical outcomes and establish a predictive model of hypoglycemia during colonoscopy preparation for diabetic patients. METHODS Three-hundred ninety-four patients with diabetes who received colonoscopy were retrospectively enrolled in this study and assigned to hypoglycemia or non-hypoglycemia groups. Information about clinical characteristics and outcomes during colonoscopy preparation was collected and compared between the two groups. Logistic regression analysis was applied to identify the risk factors of hypoglycemia. These risk factors were used to construct a hypoglycemia predictive model verified by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness fit test. RESULTS Among 394 participants, 66 (16.8%) underwent a total of 88 hypoglycemia attacks during the bowel preparation. Grade 1 hypoglycemia (≤3.9 mmol/L) comprised 90.9% (80/88) of all hypoglycemia attacks and grade 2 hypoglycemia accounted for 9.1% (8/88), signifying that grade 1 hypoglycemia is the most common type. No severe hypoglycemia was identified. The incidence of nocturnal hypoglycemia was 15.9%. Logistic regression analyses revealed that the main risk factors of hypoglycemia during colonoscopy preparation were postprandial C-peptide, serum triglyceride, gender, type of diabetes mellitus, and insulin injection frequencies. The area under the ROC curve of the hypoglycemia prediction model was 0.777 (95% CI: 0.720-0.833). CONCLUSION Diabetic patients are prone to develop mild to moderate hypoglycemia during colonoscopy preparation. This study proposes a predictive model that could provide a reference for identifying patients with a high risk of hypoglycemia during colonoscopy preparation.

Abstract
Objective To explore the relationship between C-peptide secretion and time in range (TIR) in adult patients with type 1 diabetes. Methods From December 2018 to December 2020, 76 type 1 diabetes participants were enrolled from the Department of Endocrinology and Metabolism of Peking University People's Hospital. All participants wore intermittently scanned continuous glucose monitoring (isCGM), and insulin dosage was adjusted according to standardized clinical procedures. Subjects were divided into low C-peptide group (<10 pmol/L) and preserved C-peptide group (10-200 pmol/L) based on fasting serum C-peptide levels. Differences of TIR, metrics related to glucose variability and hypoglycemic events were compared. Results A total of 94,846 isCGM values obtained from 39 male and 37 female participants were analyzed. Individuals with preserved C-peptide secretion had shorter diabetes duration (2.0 (0.5, 10.0) vs 10.0 (3.0, 18.3) years, P = 0.002). TIR was higher in the individuals with preserved C-peptide than those with decreased C-peptide (67.1% (54.2, 75.8) vs 45.5% (33.9, 56.1), P < 0.001), and time above range was significantly lower in those with preserved C-peptide (28.0% (15.6, 42.4) vs 49.4% (39.1, 64.2), P < 0.001). Preserved C-peptide was associated with lower glucose variability, as defined by s.d. (3.0 mmol/L (2.6, 3.4) vs 3.8 mmol/L (3.2, 4.3), P < 0.001) and interquartile range (4.3 mmol/L (3.1, 4.8) vs 5.3 mmol/L (4.5, 6.3), P < 0.001). Metrics related to hypoglycemia were not different between the two groups. Conclusion Preserved C-peptide secretion was associated with higher TIR and lower glucose variability in Chinese type 1 diabetes adults.

Abstract
Impaired beta-cell function is a recognized cornerstone of diabetes pathophysiology. Estimates of insulin secretory capacity are useful to inform clinical practice, helping to classify types of diabetes, complication risk stratification and to guide treatment decisions. Because C-peptide secretion mirrors beta-cell function, it has emerged as a valuable clinical biomarker, mainly in autoimmune diabetes and especially in adult-onset diabetes. Nonetheless, the lack of robust evidence about the clinical utility of C-peptide measurement in type 2 diabetes, where insulin resistance is a major confounder, limits its use in such cases. Furthermore, problems remain in the standardization of the assay for C-peptide, raising concerns about comparability of measurements between different laboratories. To approach the heterogeneity and complexity of diabetes, reliable, simple and inexpensive clinical markers are required that can inform clinicians about probable pathophysiology and disease progression, and so enable personalization of management and therapy. This review summarizes the current evidence base about the potential value of C-peptide in the management of the two most prevalent forms of diabetes (type 2 diabetes and autoimmune diabetes) to address how its measurement may assist daily clinical practice and to highlight current limitations and areas of uncertainties to be covered by future research.

Abstract
Objective: To examine the accuracy of urine c-peptide creatinine ratio (UCPCR) for identifying the type of diabetes in appropriate clinical settings. Design: Systematic review of test accuracy studies on patients with different forms of diabetes. Data sources: Medline, Embase and Cochrane library databases from 1 January 2000 to 15 November 2020. Eligibility criteria: Studies reporting the use of UCPCR for diagnosing patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and monogenic forms of diabetes (categorized as maturity-onset diabetes of the young [MODY]). Study selection and data synthesis: Two reviewers independently assessed articles for inclusion and assessed the methodological quality of the studies using the Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies-2 tool, with input from a third reviewer to reach consensus when there was a dispute. Meta-analysis was performed with the studies reporting complete data to derive the pooled sensitivity, specificity and diagnostic odds ratio (DOR), and narrative synthesis only for those with incomplete data. Results: Nine studies with 4,488 patients were included in the qualitative synthesis, while only four of these (915 patients) had complete data and were included in the quantitative synthesis. All the studies had moderate risk of bias and applicability concerns. Meta-analysis of three studies (n=130) revealed sensitivity, specificity and DOR of 84.4% (95% confidence interval [CI] 68.1-93.2%), 91.6% (82.8-96.1%) and 59.9 (32.8-106.0), respectively, for diagnosing T1DM using a UCPCR cut-off of <0.2 nmol/mmol. For participants with T2DM (three studies; n=739), UCPCR >0.2 nmol/mmol was associated with sensitivity, specificity and DOR of 92.8% (84.2-96.9%), 81.6% (61.3-92.5%) and 56.9 (31.3-103.5), respectively. For patients with MODY in the appropriate clinical setting, a UCPCR cut-off of >0.2 nmol/mmol showed sensitivity, specificity and DOR of 85.2% (73.1-92.4%), 98.0% (92.4-99.5%) and 281.8 (57.5-1,379.7), respectively. Conclusions: Based on studies with moderate risk of bias and applicability concerns, UCPCR confers moderate to high sensitivity, specificity, and DOR for correctly identifying T1DM, T2DM and monogenic diabetes in appropriate clinical settings. Large multinational studies with multi-ethnic participation among different age groups are necessary before this test can be routinely used in clinical practice.

Association of low fasting C-peptide levels with cardiovascular risk, visit-to-visit glucose variation and severe hypoglycemia in the Veterans Affairs Diabetes Trial (VADT). Cardiovasc Diabetol 2021; 20:232. [PMID: 34879878 PMCID: PMC8656002 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-021-01418-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/07/2021] [Accepted: 11/06/2021] [Indexed: 01/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Aims Low C-peptide levels, indicating beta-cell dysfunction, are associated with increased within-day glucose variation and hypoglycemia. In advanced type 2 diabetes, severe hypoglycemia and increased glucose variation predict cardiovascular (CVD) risk. The present study examined the association between C-peptide levels and CVD risk and whether it can be explained by visit-to-visit glucose variation and severe hypoglycemia. Materials and methods Fasting C-peptide levels at baseline, composite CVD outcome, severe hypoglycemia, and visit-to-visit fasting glucose coefficient of variation (CV) and average real variability (ARV) were assessed in 1565 Veterans Affairs Diabetes Trial participants. Results There was a U-shaped relationship between C-peptide and CVD risk with increased risk with declining levels in the low range (< 0.50 nmol/l, HR 1.30 [95%CI 1.05–1.60], p = 0.02) and with rising levels in the high range (> 1.23 nmol/l, 1.27 [1.00–1.63], p = 0.05). C-peptide levels were inversely associated with the risk of severe hypoglycemia (OR 0.68 [0.60–0.77]) and visit-to-visit glucose variation (CV, standardized beta-estimate − 0.12 [SE 0.01]; ARV, − 0.10 [0.01]) (p < 0.0001 all). The association of low C-peptide levels with CVD risk was independent of cardiometabolic risk factors (1.48 [1.17–1.87, p = 0.001) and remained associated with CVD when tested in the same model with severe hypoglycemia and glucose CV. Conclusions Low C-peptide levels were associated with increased CVD risk in advanced type 2 diabetes. The association was independent of increases in glucose variation or severe hypoglycemia. C-peptide levels may predict future glucose control patterns and CVD risk, and identify phenotypes influencing clinical decision making in advanced type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS The aim of this study was to determine the impact of the routine use of serum C-peptide in an out-patient clinic setting on individuals with a clinician-diagnosis of type 1 diabetes. METHODS In this single-centre study, individuals with type 1 diabetes of at least 3 years duration were offered random serum C-peptide testing at routine clinic review. A C-peptide ≥200 pmol/L prompted further evaluation of the individual using a diagnostic algorithm that included measurement of islet cell antibodies and genetic testing. Where appropriate, a trial of anti-diabetic co-therapies was considered. RESULTS Serum C-peptide testing was performed in 859 individuals (90% of the eligible cohort), of whom 114 (13.2%) had C-peptide ≥200 pmol/L. The cause of diabetes was reclassified in 58 individuals (6.8% of the tested cohort). The majority of reclassifications were to type 2 diabetes (44 individuals; 5.1%), with a smaller proportion of monogenic diabetes (14 individuals; 1.6%). Overall, 13 individuals (1.5%) successfully discontinued insulin, while a further 16 individuals (1.9%) had improved glycaemic control following the addition of co-therapies. The estimated total cost of the testing programme was £23,262 (~€26,053), that is, £27 (~€30) per individual tested. In current terms, the cost of prior insulin therapy in the individuals with monogenic diabetes who successfully stopped insulin was approximately £57,000 (~€64,000). CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION Serum C-peptide testing can easily be incorporated into an out-patient clinic setting and could be a cost-effective intervention. C-peptide testing should be strongly considered in individuals with a clinician-diagnosis of type 1 diabetes of at least 3 years duration.

C-peptide enhances glucagon secretion in response to hyperinsulinemia under euglycemic and hypoglycemic conditions. JCI Insight 2021; 6:148997.

Abstract
Several studies have associated the presence of residual insulin secretion capability (also referred to as being C-peptide positive) with lower risk of insulin-induced hypoglycemia in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D), although the reason is unclear. We tested the hypothesis that C-peptide infusion would enhance glucagon secretion in response to hyperinsulinemia during euglycemic and hypoglycemic conditions in dogs (5 male/4 female). After a 2-hour basal period, an intravenous (IV) infusion of insulin was started, and dextrose was infused to maintain euglycemia for 2 hours. At the same time, an IV infusion of either saline (SAL) or C-peptide (CPEP) was started. After this euglycemic period, the insulin and SAL/CPEP infusions were continued for another 2 hours, but the glucose was allowed to fall to approximately 50 mg/dL. In response to euglycemic-hyperinsulinemia, glucagon secretion decreased in SAL but remained unchanged from the basal period in CPEP condition. During hypoglycemia, glucagon secretion in CPEP was 2 times higher than SAL, and this increased net hepatic glucose output and reduced the amount of exogenous glucose required to maintain glycemia. These data suggest that the presence of C-peptide during IV insulin infusion can preserve glucagon secretion during euglycemia and enhance it during hypoglycemia, which could explain why T1D patients with residual insulin secretion are less susceptible to hypoglycemia.

Abstract
Chronic and recurrent infections occur commonly in both type 1 and type 2 diabetes (T1D, T2D) and increase patient morbidity and mortality. Neutrophils are professional phagocytes of the innate immune system that are critical in pathogen handling. Neutrophil responses to infection are dysregulated in diabetes, predominantly mediated by persistent hyperglycaemia; the chief biochemical abnormality in T1D and T2D. Therapeutically enhancing host immunity in diabetes to improve infection resolution is an expanding area of research. Individuals with diabetes are also at an increased risk of severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), highlighting the need for re-invigorated and urgent focus on this field. The aim of this review is to explore the breadth of previous literature investigating neutrophil function in both T1D and T2D, in order to understand the complex neutrophil phenotype present in this disease and also to focus on the development of new therapies to improve aberrant neutrophil function in diabetes. Existing literature illustrates a dual neutrophil dysfunction in diabetes. Key pathogen handling mechanisms of neutrophil recruitment, chemotaxis, phagocytosis and intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) production are decreased in diabetes, weakening the immune response to infection. However, pro-inflammatory neutrophil pathways, mainly neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) formation, extracellular ROS generation and pro-inflammatory cytokine generation, are significantly upregulated, causing damage to the host and perpetuating inflammation. Reducing these proinflammatory outputs therapeutically is emerging as a credible strategy to improve infection resolution in diabetes, and also more recently COVID-19. Future research needs to drive forward the exploration of novel treatments to improve infection resolution in T1D and T2D to improve patient morbidity and mortality.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Maturity-onset diabetes of the young, or MODY-monogenic diabetes, is a not-so-rare collection of inherited disorders of non-autoimmune diabetes mellitus that remains insufficiently diagnosed despite increasing awareness. These cases are important to efficiently and accurately diagnose, given the clinical implications of syndromic features, cost-effective treatment regimen, and the potential impact on multiple family members. Proper recognition of the clinical manifestations, family history, and cost-effective lab and genetic testing provide the diagnosis. All patients must undergo a thorough history, physical examination, multigenerational family history, lab evaluation (glycated hemoglobin A1c [HbA1c], glutamic acid decarboxylase antibodies [GADA], islet antigen 2 antibodies [IA-2A], and zinc transporter 8 [ZnT8] antibodies). The presence of clinical features with 3 (or more) negative antibodies may be indicative of MODY-monogenic diabetes, and is followed by genetic testing. Molecular genetic testing should be performed before attempting specific treatments in most cases. Additional testing that is helpful in determining the risk of MODY-monogenic diabetes is the MODY clinical risk calculator (>25% post-test probability in patients not treated with insulin within 6 months of diagnosis should trigger genetic testing) and 2-hour postprandial (after largest meal of day) urinary C-peptide to creatinine ratio (with a ≥0.2 nmol/mmol to distinguish HNF1A- or 4A-MODY from type 1 diabetes). Treatment, as well as monitoring for microvascular and macrovascular complications, is determined by the specific variant that is identified. In addition to the diagnostic approach, this article will highlight recent therapeutic advancements when patients no longer respond to first-line therapy (historically sulfonylurea treatment in many variants). LEARNING OBJECTIVES Upon completion of this educational activity, participants should be able to. TARGET AUDIENCE This continuing medical education activity should be of substantial interest to endocrinologists and all health care professionals who care for people with diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
Mitigating postprandial hyperglycaemic excursions may be effective in not only enhancing glycaemic control for people with type 2 diabetes but also reducing the onset of diabetes-related complications. However, there are growing concerns over the long-term efficacy of anti-hyperglycaemic pharmacotherapies, which coupled with their rising financial costs, underlines the need for further non-pharmaceutical treatments to regulate postprandial glycaemic excursions. One promising strategy that acutely improves postprandial glycaemia for people with type 2 diabetes is through the provision of mealtime whey protein, owing to the slowing of gastric emptying and increased secretion of insulin and the incretin peptides. The magnitude of this effect appears greater when whey protein is consumed before, rather than with, a meal. Herein, this dietary tool may offer a simple and inexpensive strategy in the management of postprandial hyperglycaemia for people with type 2 diabetes. However, there are insufficient long-term studies that have investigated the use of mealtime whey protein as a treatment option for individuals with type 2 diabetes. The methodological approaches applied in acute studies and outcomes reported may also not portray what is achievable long-term in practice. Therefore, studies are needed to refine the application of this mealtime strategy to maximize its clinical potential to treat hyperglycaemia and to apply these long-term to address key components of successful diabetes care. This review discusses evidence surrounding the provision of mealtime whey protein to treat postprandial hyperglycaemia in individuals with type 2 diabetes and highlights areas to help facilitate its clinical application.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A number of studies have explored the association between depression and ghrelin, leptin, and cortisol; further, postprandial C-peptide levels have a therapeutic effect on type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, the relationship between C-peptide and depression in patients with diabetes, remains unclear. The aim of this study was to explore the association between depression and ghrelin, leptin, cortisol, and C-peptide in patients with diabetes. METHODS We enrolled 50 adults without T2DM, 77 non-depressed adults with T2DM (free of Axis-I psychiatric disorders as assessed using the Mental Illness Needs Index (MINI), Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9 score ≤ 4)) and 59 patients with T2DM and depression (PHQ-9 ≥ 7 and positive by the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-5). The age range of the participants was 45-59 years of age. We compared the above three groups and explored the association between ghrelin, leptin, cortisol, C-peptide, and depression in patients with diabetes. A post-hoc power-analysis was finished. RESULTS Compared with the non-depression T2DM group, the depression T2DM group had significantly higher blood glucose fluctuations. Further, compared with the non-depression T2DM and non-diabetic groups, the depression T2DM group had significantly lower levels of post-meal 2-h C-peptide and elevated evening cortisol (p < 0.01). Regression analysis revealed a significant negative correlation between depression severity and 2-h postprandial C-peptide in patients with diabetes (p < 0.01) and a significant positive correlation with midnight cortisol levels (p < 0.01). A post hoc power analysis showed that we had an adequate sample size and met the minimum requirement to attain 80% power. A post hoc power calculation also demonstrated that this study basically achieved power of 80% at 5% alpha level. CONCLUSIONS Our findings indicate a correlation of low fasting levels of 2-h C-peptide as well as higher midnight cortisol levels with higher depression severity in middle-aged patients with T2DM.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes is characterised by chronic hyperglycaemia and variable degrees of insulin deficiency and resistance. Hyperglycaemia and elevated fatty acids exert harmful effects on β-cell function, regeneration and apoptosis (gluco-lipotoxicity). Furthermore, chronic hyperglycaemia triggers a vicious cycle of insulin resistance, low-grade inflammation and a cascade of pro-atherogenic processes. Thus, timely near to normal glucose control is of utmost importance in the management of type 2 diabetes and prevention of micro- and macroangiopathy. The majority of patients are multimorbid and obese, with critical comorbidities such as cardiovascular disease, heart failure and chronic kidney disease. Recently published guidelines therefore recommend patient-centred risk/benefit-balanced use of oral glucose-lowering drugs or a glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist, or switching to insulin with glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) out of target. This article covers the indications of early insulin treatment to prevent diabetes-related complications, particularly in subgroups with severe insulin deficit, and to achieve recovery of residual β-cell function. Furthermore, the individualised, risk/benefit-balanced, timely initiation of insulin as second and third option is analysed. Timely insulin initiation may prevent diabetes progression, reduce diabetes-related complications and has less serious adverse effects. Basal insulin is the preferred option in most clinical situations with consequences of undertreatment of chronic hyperglycaemia.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Recent advances in anti-diabetic medications and glucose monitoring have led to a paradigm shift in diabetes care. Newer anti-diabetic medications such as DPP-4 inhibitors, GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs), and SGLT2 inhibitors have enabled optimal glycemic control to be achieved without increasing the risk of hypoglycemia and weight gain. Treatment with GLP-1RAs and SGLT2 inhibitors has been demonstrated to improve cardiorenal outcomes, positioning these agents as the mainstay of treatment for patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM). The development of these newer agents has also prompted a paradigm shift in the concept of T2DM, highlighting the importance of beta cell dysfunction in the pathophysiology of T2DM. AREAS COVERED Recent advances in pharmacotherapy for diabetes are summarized with a focus on the role of incretin-based drugs and SGLT2 inhibitors. The importance of a paradigm shift from a glucose-centric to a beta cell-centric concept of T2DM is also discussed, given from an Asian perspective. EXPERT OPINION Management of T2DM including lifestyle modification as well as pharmacotherapy should be focused on reducing beta cell workload, to preserve functional beta cell mass. A paradigm shift from a glucose-centric to a beta cell-centric concept of T2DM enhances the implementation of person-centered diabetes care.

Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS We aimed to assess whether persistence of C-peptide secretion is associated with less glucose variability and fewer low-glucose events in adults with type 1 diabetes who use flash monitoring. METHODS We performed a cross-sectional study of 290 adults attending a university teaching hospital diabetes clinic, with type 1 diabetes, who use flash monitoring and in whom a random plasma C-peptide was available in the past 2 years. Variables relating to flash monitoring were compared between individuals with low C-peptide (<10 pmol/l) and those with persistent C-peptide (either 10-200 pmol/l or 10-50 pmol/l). In addition, the relationship between self-reported hypoglycaemia and C-peptide was assessed (n = 167). Data are median (interquartile range). RESULTS Individuals with preserved C-peptide secretion (10-200 pmol/l) had shorter duration of diabetes (15 [9-24] vs 25 [15-34] years, p < 0.001) and older age at diagnosis (23 [14-28] vs 15 [9-25] years, p < 0.001), although current age did not differ in this cohort. Preserved C-peptide was associated with lower time with glucose <3.9 mmol/l (3% [2-6%] vs 5% [3-9%], p < 0.001), fewer low-glucose events per 2 week period (7 [4-10] vs 10 [5-16], p < 0.001), lower SD of glucose (3.8 [3.4-4.2] vs 4.1 [3.5-4.7] mmol/l, p = 0.017) and lower CV of glucose (38.0 [35.0-41.6] vs 41.8 [36.5-45.8], p < 0.001). These differences were also present in those with C-peptide 10-50 pmol/l and associations were independent of diabetes duration and estimated HbA1c in logistic regression analysis. Preserved C-peptide was also associated with lower rates of self-reported asymptomatic hypoglycaemia (8.0% vs 22.8% in the past month, p = 0.028). CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION Preserved C-peptide secretion is associated with fewer low-glucose events and lower glucose variability on flash monitoring. This suggests that individuals with preserved C-peptide may more safely achieve intensive glycaemic targets.

Abstract
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: We aimed to explore whether fasting insulin levels correlate with the risk of hypoglycemia in people with Type 2 diabetes (T2D) receiving sulfonylureas (SUs). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Our study included 58 individuals with T2D who had been on treatment with SUs, but not insulin, for more than 2 years. Confirmed hypoglycemic episodes during the past year were self-reported by the patients, and a potential relationship of hypoglycemic event frequency with fasting insulin levels was investigated. RESULTS: Fasting insulin concentrations were found to have a low positive and statistically significant correlation with the number of cases of mild hypoglycemia per year (ρ = 0.279/P = 0.034) and a moderately positive and statistically significant correlation with the number of severe hypoglycemic events per month (ρ = 0.349/P = 0.007) and per year (ρ = 0.39/P = 0.002). CONCLUSION: Our results suggest that fasting insulin levels might be a predictor of the risk of hypoglycemia in people with T2D on treatment with SUs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Glycemic variation has been suggested to be a risk factor for diabetes-related complications. Previous studies did not address confounding of diabetes duration, number of visits and length of follow-up. Here, we characterize glycemic variability over time and whether its relation to diabetes-related complications and mortality is independent from diabetes- and follow-up duration. MATERIALS AND METHODS Individuals with type 2 diabetes (n = 6770) from the Hoorn Diabetes Care System cohort were included in this study. The coefficient of variation (CV) was calculated over 5-year sliding intervals. People divided in quintiles based on their CV. Cox proportional hazard models were used to investigate the role of glycemic CV as risk factor in diabetes-related complications and mortality. RESULTS The coefficient of variation of glucose (FG-CV) increased with time, in contrast to HbA1c (HbA1c-CV). People with a high FG-CV were those with an early age of diabetes onset (ΔQ5-Q1 = - 2.39 years), a higher BMI (ΔQ5-Q1 = + 0.92 kg/m2), an unfavorable lipid profile, i.e. lower levels of HDL-C (ΔQ5-Q1 = - 0.06 mmol/mol) and higher triglycerides (ΔQ5-Q1 =+ 1.20 mmol/mol). People with the highest FG-CV in the first 5-year interval showed an increased risk of insulin initiation, retinopathy, macrovascular complications and mortality independent of mean glycemia, classical risk factors and medication use. For HbA1c, the associations were weaker and less consistent. CONCLUSIONS Individuals with a higher FG-CV have an unfavorable metabolic profile and have an increased risk of developing micro- and macrovascular complications and mortality. The association of HbA1c-CV with metabolic outcomes and complications was less consistent in comparison to FG-CV.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To develop and validate multivariable clinical diagnostic models to assist distinguishing between type 1 and type 2 diabetes in adults aged 18-50. DESIGN Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to develop classification models integrating five pre-specified predictor variables, including clinical features (age of diagnosis, body mass index) and clinical biomarkers (GADA and Islet Antigen 2 islet autoantibodies, Type 1 Diabetes Genetic Risk Score), to identify type 1 diabetes with rapid insulin requirement using data from existing cohorts. SETTING UK cohorts recruited from primary and secondary care. PARTICIPANTS 1352 (model development) and 582 (external validation) participants diagnosed with diabetes between the age of 18 and 50 years of white European origin. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Type 1 diabetes was defined by rapid insulin requirement (within 3 years of diagnosis) and severe endogenous insulin deficiency (C-peptide <200 pmol/L). Type 2 diabetes was defined by either a lack of rapid insulin requirement or, where insulin treated within 3 years, retained endogenous insulin secretion (C-peptide >600 pmol/L at ≥5 years diabetes duration). Model performance was assessed using area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC AUC), and internal and external validation. RESULTS Type 1 diabetes was present in 13% of participants in the development cohort. All five predictor variables were discriminative and independent predictors of type 1 diabetes (p<0.001 for all) with individual ROC AUC ranging from 0.82 to 0.85. Model performance was high: ROC AUC range 0.90 (95% CI 0.88 to 0.93) (clinical features only) to 0.97 (95% CI 0.96 to 0.98) (all predictors) with low prediction error. Results were consistent in external validation (clinical features and GADA ROC AUC 0.93 (0.90 to 0.96)). CONCLUSIONS Clinical diagnostic models integrating clinical features with biomarkers have high accuracy for identifying type 1 diabetes with rapid insulin requirement, and could assist clinicians and researchers in accurately identifying patients with type 1 diabetes.

Abstract
AIMS Most people with Type 1 diabetes have low levels of persistent endogenous insulin production. The Diabetes Control and Complications Trial showed that close to diagnosis preserved endogenous insulin was associated with lower HbA1c , hypoglycaemia and complication rates, when intensively treated. We aimed to assess the clinical impact of persistent C-peptide on rate of hypoglycaemia and HbA1c in those with long duration (> 5 years) Type 1 diabetes. METHODS We conducted a cross-sectional case-control study of 221 people (median age 24 years) with Type 1 diabetes. We confirmed ongoing endogenous insulin secretion by measuring C-peptide after a mixed-meal tolerance test. We compared self-reported hypoglycaemia (n = 160), HbA1c , insulin dose and microvascular complications (n = 140) in those with preserved and low C-peptide. RESULTS Stimulated median (IQR) C-peptide was 114 (43, 273) pmol/l and < 3 (< 3, < 3) pmol/l in those with preserved and low C-peptide respectively. Participants with preserved C-peptide had lower reported monthly rates of hypoglycaemia, with 21% fewer symptomatic episodes, 5.9 vs. 7.5 [incidence rate ratio (IRR) 0.79, P = 0.001], and 65% fewer asymptomatic episodes, 1.0 vs. 2.9 (IRR 0.35, P < 0.001). Those with preserved C-peptide had a lower insulin dose (0.68 vs. 0.81 units/kg, P = 0.01) but similar HbA1c (preserved 69 vs. low 67 mmol/mol, P = 0.06). CONCLUSIONS Adults with Type 1 diabetes and preserved endogenous insulin production receiving usual care in the UK have lower daily insulin doses and fewer self-reported hypoglycaemic episodes, but no difference in HbA1c . This is consistent with non-intensive treatment in previous studies, and suggests a need to consider therapy intensification to gain full benefit of preserved endogenous insulin.

Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS Late-onset type 1 diabetes can be difficult to identify. Measurement of endogenous insulin secretion using C-peptide provides a gold standard classification of diabetes type in longstanding diabetes that closely relates to treatment requirements. We aimed to determine the prevalence and characteristics of type 1 diabetes defined by severe endogenous insulin deficiency after age 30 and assess whether these individuals are identified and managed as having type 1 diabetes in clinical practice. METHODS We assessed the characteristics of type 1 diabetes defined by rapid insulin requirement (within 3 years of diagnosis) and severe endogenous insulin deficiency (non-fasting C-peptide <200 pmol/l) in 583 participants with insulin-treated diabetes, diagnosed after age 30, from the Diabetes Alliance for Research in England (DARE) population cohort. We compared characteristics with participants with retained endogenous insulin secretion (>600 pmol/l) and 220 participants with severe insulin deficiency who were diagnosed under age 30. RESULTS Twenty-one per cent of participants with insulin-treated diabetes who were diagnosed after age 30 met the study criteria for type 1 diabetes. Of these participants, 38% did not receive insulin at diagnosis, of whom 47% self-reported type 2 diabetes. Rapid insulin requirement was highly predictive of severe endogenous insulin deficiency: 85% required insulin within 1 year of diagnosis, and 47% of all those initially treated without insulin who progressed to insulin treatment within 3 years of diagnosis had severe endogenous insulin deficiency. Participants with late-onset type 1 diabetes defined by development of severe insulin deficiency had similar clinical characteristics to those with young-onset type 1 diabetes. However, those with later onset type 1 diabetes had a modestly lower type 1 diabetes genetic risk score (0.268 vs 0.279; p < 0.001 [expected type 2 diabetes population median, 0.231]), a higher islet autoantibody prevalence (GAD-, islet antigen 2 [IA2]- or zinc transporter protein 8 [ZnT8]-positive) of 78% at 13 years vs 62% at 26 years of diabetes duration; (p = 0.02), and were less likely to identify as having type 1 diabetes (79% vs 100%; p < 0.001) vs those with young-onset disease. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION Type 1 diabetes diagnosed over 30 years of age, defined by severe insulin deficiency, has similar clinical and biological characteristics to that occurring at younger ages, but is frequently not identified. Clinicians should be aware that patients progressing to insulin within 3 years of diagnosis have a high likelihood of type 1 diabetes, regardless of initial diagnosis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Accurate dosing of medications for glycemic control is a challenge for clinicians in diabetic patients with kidney disease. Diminishing glomerular filtration rates are associated with decreased renal clearance of insulin and increased prevalence of hypoglycemic episodes. Measurement of glucose/C peptide ratios may be useful to guide dosing in those patients who receive powerful insulin secretogogues as glomerular function decreases with age and disease. METHODS In order to determine the relationship between glucose, C-peptide and renal function, we reviewed the records of patients with type 2 diabetes followed in our kidney hypertension clinic who met the following criteria: age 35-90 years, requirement of medications to control glycemia, at least 4 simultaneous measurements of C peptide, HbA1c, creatinine and blood glucose. RESULTS 87 patients (67 males, 20 females), ages 67.1 ± 10.6 years, BMI 32.5 ± 5.2, A1c 8.2 ± 1.2%, eGFR 73 ± 27.2 ml/min, had glucose/C-peptide ratios 60.7 ± 46.4. 59% of the total group were taking insulin secretogogues. Patients were divided into groups based upon mean eGFR and use or absence of insulin secretogogues. Glucose C-peptide ratios were lowest in the quartile of patients with the lowest eGFR (<50 ml/min). CONCLUSION Diminished renal function and advanced age are associated with the lowest glucose/C-peptide ratios, independent of achieved glycemic control. With similar use of secretogogues, glucose/C-peptide ratio were lower when eGFR was ≤49 ml/min compared to >50-80 ml/min. Use of secretogogues was associated with decreased glucose/C-peptide levels. In patients with reduced renal function (eGFR < 50 ml/min), use of insulin secretogogues may be associated with lower glucose/C-peptide ratios associated with higher risks for hypoglycemic reactions.
