Abstract
BACKGROUND Autoimmune diseases (ADs) present significant health challenges globally, especially among adolescents and young adults (AYAs) due to their unique developmental stages. Comprehensive analyses of their burden are limited. This study leverages the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2021 data to assess the global, regional, and national burden and trends of major ADs among AYAs from 1990 to 2021. METHODS Utilizing data from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) Study 2021 for individuals aged 15-39 years, we employed a direct method for age standardization to calculate estimates along with 95% uncertainty intervals (UIs) for assessing the age-standardized incidence rates (ASIR), prevalence rates (ASPR), and mortality rates (ASMR) of ADs. The diseases analyzed included rheumatoid arthritis (RA), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), multiple sclerosis (MS), type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), Asthma, and Psoriasis. Trends from 1990 to 2021 were analyzed using Joinpoint regression, providing average annual percentage changes (AAPC) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). RESULT In 2021, the global ASIR, ASPR, and ASMR of RA among AYAs (per 100,000 population) were 9.46 (95% UI: 5.92 to 13.54), 104.35 (77.44 to 137.84), and 0.016 (0.013 to 0.019), respectively. For IBD, the corresponding rates were 4.08 (3.07 to 5.37), 29.55 (23.00 to 37.83), and 0.10 (0.07 to 0.12). MS exhibited rates of 1.40 (0.93 to 1.93), 16.05 (12.73 to 19.75), and 0.05 (0.04 to 0.05), respectively. T1DM had rates of 6.63 (3.08 to 11.84), 245.51 (194.21 to 307.56), and 0.54 (0.47 to 0.60). Asthma demonstrated rates of 232.22 (132.11 to 361.24), 2245.51 (1671.05 to 2917.57), and 0.89 (0.77 to 1.08). Psoriasis showed rates of 55.08 (48.53 to 61.93) and 426.16 (394.12 to 460.18) for ASIR and ASPR, respectively. From 1990 to 2021, the global ASIR of RA (AAPC = 0.47, 95% CI: 0.46 to 0.49), IBD (0.22 [0.12 to 0.33]), MS (0.22 [0.19 to 0.26]), T1DM (0.83 [0.80 to 0.86]), and Psoriasis (0.33 [0.31 to 0.34]) showed increasing trends, whereas Asthma (-0.96 [-1.03 to -0.88]) showed a decreasing trend. The global ASPR of RA (0.70 [0.68 to 0.73]), MS (0.35 [0.32 to 0.37]), T1DM (0.68 [0.66 to 0.69]), and Psoriasis (0.29 [0.27 to 0.32]) also showed increasing trends, whereas IBD (-0.20 [-0.27 to -0.13]) and Asthma (-1.25 [-1.31 to -1.19]) showed decreasing trends. Notably, the estimated global ASMR of RA (-2.35 [-2.57 to -2.12]), MS (-0.63 [-0.86 to -0.41]), T1DM (-0.35 [-0.56 to -0.14]), and Asthma (-1.35 [-1.44 to -1.26]) in AYAs declined. Additionally, the burden of disease for ADs in AYAs varies considerably across continents and between 204 countries and territories. CONCLUSION ADs among AYAs present a substantial public health burden with notable regional disparities in incidence, prevalence, and mortality rates. Understanding these patterns is essential for developing targeted public health interventions and policies to mitigate the impact of ADs in this population.

Abstract
AIMS An initiative of continuous monitoring of the quality of diabetes care, promoted by the Association of Medical Diabetologists, is in place in Italy since 2006 (AMD Annals). The initiative was effective in improving quality of care indicators, assessed periodically through standardized measures. Here, we show the 2023 AMD Annals data on type 2 (T2D) and type 1 (T1D) diabetes. METHODS A network of over 1/3 of diabetes centers in Italy periodically extracts anonymous data from electronic medical records, using a standardized software. Process, treatment and outcome indicators, and a validated score of overall care, the Q-score, were evaluated. RESULTS 296 centers provided data on 573,164 T2D (mean age 69.7 ± 11.2 years) and 42,611 T1D subjects (mean age 48.6 ± 16.9 years). A HbA1c value ≤ 7.0 % was documented in 56.3 % of patients with T2D and 35.9 % of those with T1D. Only 6.6 % of T2D patients and 3.5 % of those with T1D reached the composite outcome of HbA1c ≤ 7.0 % + LDL-C < 70 mg/dl + BP < 130/80 mmHg. Notably, only 2.8 % and 3.2 % of T2D and T1D patients, respectively, showed a Q score < 15, which correlates with an 80 % higher risk of incident CVD events compared to scores > 25. CONCLUSIONS We documented an overall good quality of care in both T1D and T2D subjects. However, the failure to achieve the targets of the main risk factors, especially if combined, in a still too large proportion of patients testify the difficulty to apply the more and more stringent indications recommended by guidelines in the everyday clinical practice.

Abstract
The aim of this study is to investigate whether physical activity and the level of body fat are factors reducing the level of pro-inflammatory cytokines in people with T1DM. Twenty-five men (27.8 ± 9.4 years old; 178.9 ± 6.9 cm; 80.6 ± 12 kg) and 18 women (28.1 ± 12.5 years old; 162.4 ± 5.5; 63.1 ± 9.9 kg) were divided into four groups based on body fat percentage and level of physical activity (AN-active people with normal body fat; IAN-inactive people with normal body fat; AO-active people with excessive body fat, IAO-inactive people with excessive body fat). The level of cytokines in the blood serum was assessed. The level of IL-8 was higher (measurable) in inactive men, regardless of adiposity degree and in women, only in the inactive group with normal body fat. IL-6 was found only in active men with excessive adiposity. In conclusion, the findings from this study allow to indicate that moderate level of physical activity may contribute to a reduction in the development of systemic low-grade inflammation in patients with T1DM, and thus, may reduce the risk of CVD.

Abstract
(1) Background: Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RA) are a class of therapeutic agents that mimic the endogenous incretin hormone GLP-1. While this class of agents is not approved for Type 1 Diabetes (T1DM) due to concern of increased diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) risk, long-acting GLP-1 medications are being commonly prescribed off label for T1DM in clinical practice. Several studies addressed the efficacy and safety of short-acting GLP-1 agonists therapy in patients with T1DM, but the data on long-acting agents are lacking. In our study, we aim to fill in this gap and help healthcare providers in their clinical decision making on the use of these agents for T1DM patients. (2) Methods: We conducted a retrospective chart review of T1DM patients on a long-acting GLP-1 for at least six months. Our retrospective chart review included information starting two years prior to starting GLP-1, and six or more months after starting GLP-1. Parameters collected included HbA1c, 14-day Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM) and blood glucose (BG) data, and metabolic data (weight, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and cholesterol levels). Statistical analysis was conducted using paired t-tests on R and Excel with α of 0.05. (3) Results: Our cohort consisted of 54 participants with T1DM on a long-acting GLP-1 (semaglutide, dulaglutide, exenatide extended-release [ER], albiglutide). Mean GLP-1 treatment duration was 23.85 ± 15.46 months. HbA1c values decreased significantly by an average of 0.71% percentage points (%-points, p = 0.002) comparing pre-therapy vs. on GLP-1 treatment. Similarly, for pre-therapy vs. on GLP-1 treatment values, CGM results were significant for increased time in range by 12.15%-points (p = 0.0009) showing a decreased average time in hyperglycemia (BG > 180 mg/dL) by a mean difference of 11.97%-points (p = 0.006), decreased 14-day mean BG by 19 mg/dl (p = 0.01), decreased 14-day BG standard deviation by 8.45 mg/dl (p = 0.01), decreased incidence of DKA hospitalization, and a decrease in weight by 3.16 kg (p = 0.007). (4) Conclusions: As more data emerges on cardiovascular and renal benefits of long acting GLP-1 in type 2 diabetes, there have been no reported outcomes in T1DM. Our study is the first to demonstrate glycemic and metabolic benefits of this class of medication as an adjunct therapy to insulin in T1DM, and safety of its use over an average of 1.5–2 years’ time. This study represents real life experience and the data warrants confirmation by additional prospective studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We aimed to study the cumulative incidence and risk factors (sex, age, calendar year of diabetes onset, country of origin and educational level) of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in subjects with type 1 diabetes and matched controls. METHODS A nationwide cohort of subjects with type 1 diabetes diagnosed at age < 15 years in Norway during 1973-2000 was followed until the first AMI event, emigration, death or 31st of December 2017. The Norwegian Childhood Diabetes Registry was linked to five nationwide registries, and up to ten sex- and age-matched controls per case were included. RESULTS Among 7086 subjects with type 1 diabetes, 170 (2.4%) were identified with incident AMI, compared to 193 (0.3%) of 69,356 controls. Mean age and diabetes duration at first AMI was 40.8 years and 30.6 years, respectively. The probability of AMI after 40 years of follow-up was 8.0% in subjects with type 1 diabetes and 1.1% in controls, aHR 9.05 (95% CI 7.18-11.41). In type 1 diabetes, male sex (aHR 1.45), higher age at onset of diabetes and lower education (higher compared to lower, aHR 0.38) were significantly associated with higher risk of AMI. There was no significant time trend in AMI by calendar year of diabetes onset. CONCLUSIONS We found nine-fold excess risk of AMI in subjects with type 1 diabetes, and three-fold higher risk in subjects with low versus high education. These results highlight a strengthened focus on prevention of cardiovascular disease, and diabetes education tailored to the subjects' educational background.

Oral fluoxetine treatment changes serotonergic sympatho-regulation in experimental type 1 diabetes. Life Sci 2022; 293:120335. [PMID: 35051421 DOI: 10.1016/j.lfs.2022.120335] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2021] [Revised: 01/14/2022] [Accepted: 01/14/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
AIMS This study investigated whether fluoxetine treatment changes the 5-HT regulation on vascular sympathetic neurotransmission in type 1 diabetes. MAIN METHODS Four-week diabetes was obtained by a single alloxan s.c. administration in male Wistar rats, administering fluoxetine for 14 days (10 mg/kg/day; p.o.). Systolic blood pressure, heart rate, glycaemia, body weight (BW) evolution, creatinine, and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) were monitored. Afterward, rats were pithed to perform the vascular sympathetic stimulation. 5-HT1A/1D/2A receptors expression was analysed by Western blot in thoracic aorta. Both i.v. norepinephrine and the electrical stimulation of the spinal sympathetic drive evoked vasoconstrictor responses. KEY FINDINGS Fluoxetine treatment significantly reduced the BW gain, hyperglycaemia, creatinine, and BUN in diabetic rats. The electrical-produced vasopressor responses were greater in untreated than in fluoxetine-treated diabetic rats. 5-HT decreased the sympathetic-produced vasopressor responses. While 5-CT, 8-OH-DPAT and L-694,247 (5-HT1/7, 5-HT1A and 5-HT1D agonists, respectively) reproduced 5-HT-evoked inhibition, the 5-HT2 activation by α-methyl-5-HT augmented the vasoconstrictions. The 5-CT sympatho-inhibition was reversed by 5-HT1A plus 5-HT1D antagonists (WAY-100,635 and LY310762, respectively), whereas ritanserin (5-HT2A antagonist) blocked the α-methyl-5-HT potentiating effect. Norepinephrine-generated vasoconstrictions were increased or diminished by α-methyl-5-HT or 5-CT, respectively. 5-HT1A/1D/2A receptors were expressed at vascular level, being 5-HT1A expression increased by fluoxetine in diabetic rats. SIGNIFICANCE Our findings suggest that fluoxetine improves metabolic and renal profiles, changes the vasopressor responses, and 5-HT receptors modulating sympathetic activity in diabetic rats: 5-HT1A/1D are involved in the sympatho-inhibition, while 5-HT2A is implicated in the sympatho-potentiation, being both effects pre and/or postjunctional in nature.
