Abstract
Diabetic peripheral neuropathy is a major cause of disability and death in the later stages of diabetes. A retrospective chart review was performed using a hospital-based electronic medical record database to identify 1020 patients who met the criteria. The objective of this study was to explore and analyze the early risk factors for peripheral neuropathy in patients with type 2 diabetes, even in the absence of specific clinical symptoms or signs. Finally, the random forest algorithm was used to rank the influencing factors and construct a predictive model, and then the model performance was evaluated. Logistic regression analysis revealed that vitamin D plays a crucial protective role in preventing diabetic peripheral neuropathy. The top three risk factors with significant contributions to the model in the random forest algorithm eigenvalue ranking were glycosylated hemoglobin, disease duration, and vitamin D. The areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the model ware 0.90. The accuracy, precision, specificity, and sensitivity were 0.85, 0.83, 0.92, and 0.71, respectively. The predictive model, which is based on the random forest algorithm, is intended to support clinical decision-making by healthcare professionals and help them target timely interventions to key factors in early diabetic peripheral neuropathy.

Abstract
Diabetic neuropathy (DN) is a neurodegenerative disorder that is primarily characterized by distal sensory loss, reduced mobility, and foot ulcers that may potentially lead to amputation. The multifaceted etiology of DN is linked to a range of inflammatory, vascular, metabolic, and other neurodegenerative factors. Chronic inflammation, endothelial dysfunction, and oxidative stress are the three basic biological changes that contribute to the development of DN. Although our understanding of the intricacies of DN has advanced significantly over the past decade, the distinctive mechanisms underlying the condition are still poorly understood, which may be the reason behind the lack of an effective treatment and cure for DN. The present study delivers a comprehensive understanding and highlights the potential role of the several pathways and molecular mechanisms underlying the etiopathogenesis of DN. Moreover, Schwann cells and satellite glial cells, as integral factors in the pathogenesis of DN, have been enlightened. This work will motivate allied research disciplines to gain a better understanding and analysis of the current state of the biomolecular mechanisms behind the pathogenesis of DN, which will be essential to effectively address every facet of DN, from prevention to treatment.

Abstract
Coffee is an important beverage that is widely consumed, of which caffeine is the main active ingredient. However, the long-term relationship between caffeine consumption and mortality in hypertensive patients has rarely been studied. This study analyzed a cohort of 12,093 US adults from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey from 1999 to 2018. Caffeine consumption was divided into five groups: no intake, >0 to ≤100, >100 to ≤300, >300 to ≤400 and >400 mg/day. Using multivariable-adjusted Cox proportional hazards models, this study performed a 20-year follow-up analysis (1999-2018). In the fully adjusted model, all caffeine consumers had lower all-cause mortality compared with no intake, especially in the >300 to ≤400 mg/day group (hazard ratio (HR) 0.71, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.60-0.84). The result of restricted cubic spline also showed a nonlinear association between caffeine consumption and all-cause mortality. For cardiovascular disease, mortality decreased only at >400 mg/day (HR 0.63, 95% CI 0.47-0.85). For cancer, diabetes, and kidney disease, only >300 to ≤400 mg/day was significantly associated with decreased mortality: (HR 0.60, 95% CI 0.42-0.67), (HR 0.22, 95% CI 0.07-0.75), and (HR 0.32, 95% CI 0.10-0.96), respectively. Lower all-cause mortality was observed in non-Hispanic White, African American, population aged 40 or above, and people with a body mass index <25 kg/m2. Our findings indicate a nonlinear association between average caffeine consumption and all-cause mortality, suggesting that hypertensive patients may benefit from moderate caffeine intake.

Abstract
One of the most common micro vascular complications of diabetes is diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). The well-recognized risk factors for DPN are hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia, and hypertension. DPN is associated with a high mortality rate and poor prognosis. Its pathogenesis is not fully understood, and clinical treatment is focused on relieving its clinical symptoms, as well as improving blood sugar control and cardiovascular risk factors. DPN and its clinically effective treatments need to be studied. Microvascular complications of diabetes present a significant challenge due to their diverse presentations, significant morbidity, and as strong predictors of cardiovascular disease. Prevention and management strategies should focus on lifestyle modification, education and awareness, systematic screening for early complications, and intensive management of modifiable risk factors. There was an association between DPN and DKD as well as CVD, BMI and age demonstrated. These may indicate that in case of having one diabetes complication diagnosed, it is important to screen for others, including macrovascular ones, as they may be undiagnosed due to their "silent" nature. Further studies are expected to strengthen basic research on the subject, reveal modern medical mechanisms, and provide fresh ideas and innovative methods for the treatment of DPN.

Factors correlating to decisions for prescribing pharmacological treatment and referrals in suspected peripheral neuropathy cases in chat consultation-based application. Heliyon 2024; 10:e30713. [PMID: 38803849 PMCID: PMC11128825 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e30713] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/20/2023] [Revised: 04/02/2024] [Accepted: 05/02/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024] Open
Abstract
Introduction Since the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been increasing use ofchat-based telemedicine, including for patients with neuropathy complaints. It is imperative to learn how to effectively use telemedicine. This study describes the characteristics of patients with neuropathy complaints in chat-based telemedicine services in Indonesia and their influence on treatment decisions and referrals. Methods This is a retrospective cross-sectional study during the COVID-19 pandemic era (March 2020 to December 2021) using anonymous secondary data from patient chat databases on Indonesian application-based telemedicine services (Halodoc, Alodokter, Good Doctor, and Milvik). We applied bivariate and multivariate analysis. Results We obtained 1051 patients with suspected peripheral nerve complaints (4 per 10,000) from a total of 2,199,527 user consultations, with the majority being 40-64 years old females and diabetes mellitus was the leading comorbid (90.7%). Most patients received treatment (90.7%) and only 11.4% patients were referred. Multivariate analysis showed that treatment was more likely to be given by a neurologist (p < 0.01). Chronic symptoms (p < 0.01) and previous laboratory/other tests (p = 0.01) decreased the likelihood of medication prescription. Referrals were more likely to be given to chronic onset (p = 0.02), hypertension and heart disease (p < 0.01), and previous laboratory/other tests (p = 0.02). The opposite was true for age≥65 years, female (p = 0.04), and neurologists or other specialists as responders (p < 0.01). Conclusion We identified several factors that influence the treatment decision such as female patients and onset. Meanwhile, age, sex, chronic symptoms, history of hypertension and heart disease, and previous laboratory/other tests may influence the referral decisions. General practitioners were more likely to refer the patients whereas neurologists or other specialists were more likely to give treatment. Chat-based telemedicine services can still be developed in the future to be better.

Mekuria Negussie Y, Tilahun Bekele N. Diabetic peripheral neuropathy among adult type 2 diabetes patients in Adama, Ethiopia: health facility-based study. Sci Rep 2024; 14:3844. [PMID: 38361024 PMCID: PMC10869338 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-53951-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2023] [Accepted: 02/07/2024] [Indexed: 02/17/2024] Open
Abstract
Diabetic peripheral neuropathy is the most prominent microvascular complication of diabetes mellitus and the leading cause of ulceration, amputation, and extended hospitalization. Evidence regarding the magnitude and factors associated with diabetic peripheral neuropathy is not well documented in Ethiopia, particularly in the study area. A facility-based cross-sectional study was conducted among 293 adult type 2 diabetic patients who were on treatment and follow-up from May to June 31, 2023. To select participants in the study, a systematic random sampling method was utilized. Data were collected using semi-structured questionnaires and medical record reviews. The Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instrument (MNSI) was employed to assess diabetic peripheral neuropathy. To model the association between diabetic peripheral neuropathy and independent variables, binary logistic regression model was used. An adjusted odds ratio with a 95% confidence interval was used to estimate the association and statistical significance was proclaimed at a p-value < 0.05. The magnitude of diabetic peripheral neuropathy was 14.3% (95% CI 10.4-18.0). It was 13.4% (95% CI 8.4-19.1) among males and 15.4% (95% CI 10.1-22.2) among females. Age above 60 years (AOR = 5.06, 95% CI 1.60-15.96), being rural resident (AOR = 2.41; 95% CI 1.15-5.06), duration of diabetes above 5 years (AOR = 2.48, 95% CI 1.16-5.27) and having comorbid hypertension (AOR = 2.56, 95% CI 1.24-5.28) were independently associated with diabetic peripheral neuropathy. One in seven adult type 2 diabetes patients in the study area had diabetic peripheral neuropathy. Factors such as age, place of residence, duration of diabetes, and comorbid hypertension showed positive associations with diabetic peripheral neuropathy. Thus, it is imperative to give special consideration to diabetic patients who are elderly, living in rural areas, experiencing a prolonged duration of diabetes, or dealing with comorbid hypertension.
