A novel model for predicting diabetes remission after bariatric surgery based on the measurement of C-peptide and creatinine in serum: A pilot study. Nutr Metab Cardiovasc Dis 2024; 34:1142-1145. [PMID: 38220504 DOI: 10.1016/j.numecd.2023.12.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/17/2023] [Revised: 11/24/2023] [Accepted: 12/10/2023] [Indexed: 01/16/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Bariatric surgery is effective for treating type 2 diabetes (T2D) in patients with obesity, although a significant proportion of these patients do not achieve diabetes remission after the surgery even after significant weight loss and metabolic improvement. C-peptide is a valuable marker of beta cell function and insulin secretion, but renal function must be considered when interpreting measurements in patients with T2D. The study aims to investigate the association of serum levels of C-peptide adjusted for creatinine with diabetes remission and glycemic target achievement after bariatric surgery in patients with obesity and T2D. METHODS AND RESULTS Prospective data from a cohort of 84 patients with obesity and T2D submitted to Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) were collected at baseline and at least a 6-month follow up. A multivariate binomial regression model showed that Ln(C-peptide/creatinine) and age were significantly associated with 6-month T2D remission. The area under the curve for the receiver operating characteristic analysis (AUROC) to predict remission was 0.87, and more accurate than the AUROC based on C-peptide levels alone (0.75). The same model was also able to predict achieving an HbA1c target of 7 % (53 mmol/mol) (AUROC 0.96). CONCLUSION In conclusion, Ln(C-peptide/creatinine) ratio could be a useful tool in predicting T2D remission and target achievement after RYGB surgery, providing a more accurate reflection of beta cell function in bariatric patients.

Factors that determine glucose variability, defined by the coefficient of variation in continuous glucose monitoring values, in a Chinese population with type 2 diabetes. Diabetes Obes Metab 2024; 26:611-621. [PMID: 37953677 DOI: 10.1111/dom.15350] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2023] [Revised: 10/11/2023] [Accepted: 10/13/2023] [Indexed: 11/14/2023]
Abstract
AIMS To elucidate the clinical determinants of the coefficient of variation (CV) of glucose by analysing the pancreatic β-cell function of subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS A total of 716 Chinese subjects with T2DM were included. Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) was used to assess blood glucose, and the CV was calculated. C-peptide concentration at 0, 0.5, 1, 2 and 3 hours (Cp0h, Cp0.5h, Cp1h, Cp2h and Cp3h, respectively) was measured after a standard 100-g steamed bun meal test to assess pancreatic β-cell function. The determinants of glucose variability defined by the CV of CGM values were explored from two perspectives: the CV of qualitative variables and the CV of quantitative variables. RESULTS Our data revealed that C-peptide concentration (Cp0h, Cp0.5h, Cp1h, Cp2h, Cp3h), area under the curve for C-peptide concentration at 0.5 and 3 hours (AUC-Cp0.5h and AUC-Cp3h) decreased with increasing CV quartile (P < 0.05). The CV was negatively correlated with homeostatic model assessment of β-cell function index, C-peptide concentration at all timepoints, and AUC-Cp0.5h and AUC-Cp3h (P < 0.001). Quantile regression analysis showed that AUC-Cp0.5h had an overall negative effect on the CV in the 0.05 to 0.95 quartiles, and AUC-Cp3h tended to have a negative effect on the CV in the 0.2 to 0.65 quartiles. After adjusting for confounders, multinomial logistic regression showed that each 1-unit increase in AUC-Cp0.5h was associated with a 31.7% reduction in the risk of unstable glucose homeostasis (CV > 36%; P = 0.036; odds ratio 0.683; 95% confidence interval 0.478-0.976). We also identified the AUC-Cp0.5h (0.735 ng/mL) and AUC-Cp3h (13.355 ng/mL) cut-off values for predicting unstable glucose homeostasis (CV >36%) in T2DM subjects. CONCLUSION Our study suggests that impaired pancreatic β-cell function may be a clinical determining factor of CV of glucose in people with T2DM.

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.

Prevalence of Positivity for Diabetes-Associated Autoantibodies in Individuals with Type 2 Diabetes and Their Further Characterisation: Cross-sectional Study from Slovakia. Diabetes Ther 2023:10.1007/s13300-023-01440-2. [PMID: 37421585 PMCID: PMC10363090 DOI: 10.1007/s13300-023-01440-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2023] [Accepted: 06/20/2023] [Indexed: 07/10/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Individuals initially diagnosed with type 2 diabetes (T2D) might exhibit positivity for diabetes-associated autoantibodies (DAA +). We investigated the prevalence of DAA positivity in a group of individuals with T2D who were referred to a tertiary diabetes centre within a pre-specified period of time. We aimed to identify characteristics linked with DAA positivity by comparing DAA + individuals with their DAA-negative counterparts. METHODS This was a cross-sectional study into which all T2D patients referred to the National Institute of Endocrinology and Diabetology, Ľubochňa, Slovakia, between 1 January and 30 June 2016 were included. Data on > 70 participants' characteristics, including antibodies against glutamic acid decarboxylase (anti-GAD65), insulinoma-associated antigen IA-2 (IA-2A) and insulin (IAA), were collected. RESULTS Six hundred and ninety-two individuals (387, 55.6% female) with a median (range) age of 62 (24-83) years, HbA1c of 8.9 (5.0-15.7)% [74 (31-148 mmol/mol)] and diabetes duration of 13.0 (0-42) years were analysed. One hundred and forty-five (145/692, 21.0%) tested positive for at least one DAA; 136/692 (19.7%) were positive for anti-GAD65, 21/692 (3.0%) were positive for IA-2A and 9/692 (1.3%) were positive for IAA. Only 84.9% of the DAA + individuals aged > 30 years at the time of diabetes diagnosis met the current diagnostic criteria for latent autoimmune diabetes of adults (LADA). DAA + differed from DAA - individuals in multiple characteristics, including the incidence of hypoglycaemia. CONCLUSION Several pathological processes linked with distinct types of diabetes can develop in parallel, including insulin resistance and autoimmune insulitis. In this single-centre cross-sectional study from Slovakia, we report a higher than previously published prevalence of DAA positivity in a group of individuals with a formal diagnosis of T2D.

Serum Metabolomics Reveals a Potential Benefit of Methionine in Type 1 Diabetes Patients with Poor Glycemic Control and High Glycemic Variability. Nutrients 2023; 15:nu15030518. [PMID: 36771224 PMCID: PMC9921163 DOI: 10.3390/nu15030518] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2022] [Revised: 01/12/2023] [Accepted: 01/17/2023] [Indexed: 01/21/2023] Open
Abstract
Glycemic variability (GV) in some patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) remains heterogeneous despite comparable clinical indicators, and whether other factors are involved is yet unknown. Metabolites in the serum indicate a broad effect of GV on cellular metabolism and therefore are more likely to indicate metabolic dysregulation associated with T1D. To compare the metabolomic profiles between high GV (GV-H, coefficient of variation (CV) of glucose ≥ 36%) and low GV (GV-L, CV < 36%) groups and to identify potential GV biomarkers, metabolomics profiling was carried out on serum samples from 17 patients with high GV, 16 matched (for age, sex, body mass index (BMI), diabetes duration, insulin dose, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), fasting, and 2 h postprandial C-peptide) patients with low GV (exploratory set), and another 21 (GV-H/GV-L: 11/10) matched patients (validation set). Subsequently, 25 metabolites were significantly enriched in seven Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathways between the GV-H and GV-L groups in the exploratory set. Only the differences in spermidine, L-methionine, and trehalose remained significant after validation. The area under the curve of these three metabolites combined in distinguishing GV-H from GV-L was 0.952 and 0.918 in the exploratory and validation sets, respectively. L-methionine was significantly inversely related to HbA1c and glucose CV, while spermidine was significantly positively associated with glucose CV. Differences in trehalose were not as reliable as those in spermidine and L-methionine because of the relatively low amounts of trehalose and the inconsistent fold change sizes in the exploratory and validation sets. Our findings suggest that metabolomic disturbances may impact the GV of T1D. Additional in vitro and in vivo mechanistic studies are required to elucidate the relationship between spermidine and L-methionine levels and GV in T1D patients with different geographical and nutritional backgrounds.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Despite the clinical importance of glycemic variability and hypoglycemia, thus far, there is no consensus on the optimum method for assessing glycemic variability and risk of hypoglycemia simultaneously. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS A novel metric, the gradient variability coefficient (GVC), was proposed for characterizing glycemic variability and risk of hypoglycemia. A total of 208 daily records of CGM encompassing 104 patients with T1DM and 2380 daily records from 1190 patients with T2DM were obtained in our study. Simulated CGM waveforms were used to assess the ability of GVC and other metrics to capture the amplitude and frequency of glucose fluctuations. In addition, the association between GVC and the risk of hypoglycemia was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. RESULTS The results of simulated CGM waveforms indicated that, compared with the widely used metrics of glycemic variability including standard deviation of sensor glucose (SD), coefficient of variation (CV), and mean amplitude of glycemic excursion (MAGE), GVC could reflect both the amplitude and frequency of glucose oscillations. In addition, the area under the curve (AUC) of ROC was 0.827 in T1DM and 0.873 in T2DM, indicating good performance in predicting hypoglycemia. CONCLUSIONS The proposed GVC might be a clinically useful tool in characterizing glycemic variability and the assessment of hypoglycemia risk in patients with diabetes.

Pancreatic shear wave elastography in children with type 1 diabetes: relation to diabetes duration, glycemic indices, fasting C-peptide and diabetic complications. Pediatr Radiol 2022; 52:2348-2358. [PMID: 35460036 PMCID: PMC9616782 DOI: 10.1007/s00247-022-05363-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2022] [Revised: 03/02/2022] [Accepted: 03/19/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Little is known about changes in the pancreas as the course of type 1 diabetes progresses. Recently, shear wave elastography (SWE) emerged as a tool for assessing pancreatic stiffness in chronic pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer with a few studies assessing it in diabetes. OBJECTIVE To compare pancreatic SWE in children with recent-onset and long-standing type 1 diabetes to healthy controls and to correlate it with diabetes duration, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1C), functional B cell reserve (fasting C-peptide) and diabetic complications. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifty children with type 1 diabetes (25 with recent-onset and 25 with long-standing type 1 diabetes) and 50 controls were enrolled. Diabetes duration, insulin therapy, fundoscopic examination of the eyes and the neuropathy disability score were assessed. Fasting C-peptide, lipids, HbA1C and urinary albumin-creatinine ratio were measured. Pancreatic SWE was measured using the General Electric Logiq P9 ultrasound system. RESULTS The mean SWE of the studied children with recent-onset type 1 diabetes was 4.81±0.62 kilopascals (Kpa), those with long-standing type 1 diabetes was 7.10±1.56Kpa and for controls was 5.57±0.27 Kpa (P<0.001). SWE was positively correlated to diabetes duration (P<0.001) and negatively correlated to fasting C-peptide (P<0.001). Regarding diabetes complications, SWE was positively correlated to frequency of severe hypoglycemia (P=0.005), HbA1C (P=0.03), low-density lipoproteins (P<0.001) and cholesterol (P<0.001) and significantly related to diabetic neuropathy (P=0.04) and nephropathy (P=0.05). Diabetes duration, fasting C-peptide, HbA1C and frequency of severe hypoglycemia were the significant independent variables related to SWE increase by multivariable regression analysis. CONCLUSION Pancreatic SWE changes significantly with duration of type 1 diabetes, being lowest in those with recent-onset type 1 diabetes and highest in those with long-standing type 1 diabetes, particularly those with diabetic nephropathy and neuropathy.

J Appl Biomed 2021; 18:136-142. [PMID: 34907766 DOI: 10.32725/jab.2020.018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/17/2020] [Accepted: 11/28/2020] [Indexed: 11/05/2022] Open
Abstract
The study focused on changes or cut-offs of glycaemia, insulin resistance and body mass index within the C-peptide reference range (260-1730 pmol/l). The metabolic profile of individuals in the Czech Republic without diabetes (n = 3186) was classified by whiskers and quartiles of C-peptide into four groups with the following ranges: 290-510 (n = 694), 511-710 (n = 780), 711-950 (n = 720) and 951-1560 pmol/l (n = 673). Fasting levels of glucose, insulin, HOMA IR (Homeostasis Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance) and BMI (body mass index) were compared by a relevant C-peptide range. Participants taking medication to control glycaemia were excluded. The evaluation involved correlations between C-peptides and the above parameters, F-test and t-test. Changes in glucose levels (from 5.3 to 5.6 mmol/l) between the groups were lower in comparison to insulin, which reached relatively greater changes (from 4.0 to 14.2 mIU/l). HOMA IR increased considerably with growing C-peptide concentrations (0.9, 1.5, 2.2 and 3.5) and BMI values showed a similar trend (28.3, 31.0, 33.6 and 37.4). Considerable changes were observed for insulin (5.2 mIU/l, 57.8%) and HOMA IR (1.3, 61.3%) between groups with C-peptide ranges of 711-950 and 951-1560 pmol/l. Although correlations involving C-peptide, insulin, glucose and BMI seemed to be non-significant (up to rxy = 0.25), the mean values of insulin, HOMA IR and BMI showed statistically significant changes between all groups with various C-peptide concentrations (p ≤ 0.001). Generally, most important differences appeared in glucose metabolism and body mass index between C-peptide ranges of 711-950 and 951-1560 pmol/l. Absolute and relative changes of C-peptide concentrations are possible to use for the assessment of glucose regulatory mechanism. The spectrum of investigated parameters could be a useful tool to prevent the risks linked with the alterations of glycaemia.

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
Numerous studies have demonstrated the clinical value and safety of insulin pump therapy in type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes populations. However, the eligibility criteria for insulin pump coverage required by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) discount conclusive evidence that supports insulin pump use in diabetes populations that are currently deemed ineligible. This article discusses the limitations and inconsistencies of the insulin pump eligibility criteria relative to current scientific evidence and proposes workable solutions to address this issue and improve the safety and care of all individuals with diabetes.

Abstract
A growing body of evidence points to the role of glucose variability (GV) in the development of the microvascular and macrovascular complications of diabetes. In this review, we summarize data on GV-induced biochemical, cellular and molecular events involved in the pathogenesis of diabetic complications. Current data indicate that the deteriorating effect of GV on target organs can be realized through oxidative stress, glycation, chronic low-grade inflammation, endothelial dysfunction, platelet activation, impaired angiogenesis and renal fibrosis. The effects of GV on oxidative stress, inflammation, endothelial dysfunction and hypercoagulability could be aggravated by hypoglycemia, associated with high GV. Oscillating hyperglycemia contributes to beta cell dysfunction, which leads to a further increase in GV and completes the vicious circle. In cells, the GV-induced cytotoxic effect includes mitochondrial dysfunction, endoplasmic reticulum stress and disturbances in autophagic flux, which are accompanied by reduced viability, activation of apoptosis and abnormalities in cell proliferation. These effects are realized through the up- and down-regulation of a large number of genes and the activity of signaling pathways such as PI3K/Akt, NF-κB, MAPK (ERK), JNK and TGF-β/Smad. Epigenetic modifications mediate the postponed effects of glucose fluctuations. The multiple deteriorative effects of GV provide further support for considering it as a therapeutic target in diabetes.

Log-linear relationship between endogenous insulin secretion and glycemic variability in patients with type 2 diabetes on continuous glucose monitoring. Sci Rep 2021; 11:9057. [PMID: 33907279 PMCID: PMC8079412 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-88749-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/16/2021] [Accepted: 04/06/2021] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
The contribution of endogenous insulin secretion to glycemic variability (GV) may differ between patients with impaired insulin secretion and those with preserved secretion. Our objective was to determine the linearity of the relationship between fasting C-peptide (CPR) as a marker of endogenous insulin secretion and GV in type 2 diabetes (T2DM), regardless of the type of antidiabetic treatment. We conducted a prospective observational study using continuous glucose monitoring obtained from 284 Japanese outpatients with T2DM with various HbA1c values and antidiabetic treatment. We constructed a prediction curve of base-line CPR versus coefficient of variation (CV) and identified the clinical factors associated with CV using multiple regression analysis. Fasting CPR showed a significant negative log-linear relationship with CV (P < 0.0001), and the latter being strikingly high in the low-CPR group. The multiple regression analysis showed that low CPR was an independent predictor of high CV (P < 0.0001). The significant correlations were sustained in both patients with/without insulin treatment. The contribution of endogenous insulin secretion to GV depends on the extent of insulin secretion impairment. Fasting CPR may represent a useful indicator of GV instability in T2DM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to explore predictive factors of time below target glucose range (TBR) ≥ 1% among patients' characteristics and glycemic variability (GV) indices using continuous glucose monitoring data in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes. METHODS We conducted a prospective observational study on 179 (71 female) Japanese outpatients with type 2 diabetes aged ≥ 65 years. The characteristics of the participants with TBR ≥ 1% were evaluated by multivariate logistic regression analysis. Receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve analyses of GV indices, comprising coefficient of variation (CV), standard deviation, and mean amplitude of glycemic excursions, were performed to identify the optimal index for the identification of patients with TBR ≥ 1%. RESULTS In the multivariate logistic regression analysis, none of the clinical characteristics, including HbA1c and C-peptide index, were independent markers for TBR ≥ 1%, while all three GV indices showed significant associations with TBR ≥ 1%. Among the three GV indices, CV showed the best performance based on the area under the curve in the ROC curve analyses. CONCLUSIONS Among elderly patients with type 2 diabetes, CV reflected TBR ≥ 1% most appropriately among the GV indices examined. Trial registration UMIN-CTR: UMIN000029993.

Abstract
Background: Carbohydrate counting and use of automated bolus calculators (ABCs) can help reduce HbA1c in type 1 diabetes but only limited evidence exists in type 2 diabetes. We evaluated the efficacy of advanced carbohydrate counting (ACC) and use of an ABC compared with manual insulin bolus calculation (MC) in persons with type 2 diabetes. Materials and Methods: A 24-week open-label, randomized clinical study was conducted in 79 persons with type 2 diabetes treated with basal-bolus insulin (mean age 62.5 ± 9.6 years, HbA1c 8.7% ± 1.0% [72 ± 11 mmol/mol], diabetes duration 18.7 ± 7.6 years). Participants were randomized 1:1 into two groups: ABC group received training in ACC and use of an ABC; MC group received training in ACC and manual calculation of insulin bolus. Participants wore blinded continuous glucose monitors for 6 days at baseline and at study end. Primary endpoint was change in HbA1c. Results: After 24 weeks, HbA1c decreased 0.8% (8.8 mmol/mol) in ABC group and 0.8% (9.0 mmol/mol) in MC group with no between-group difference (P = 0.96) and without increase in time in hypoglycemic range (sensor glucose <3.9 mmol/L). Glycemic variability decreased significantly in both groups, whereas the total insulin dose and body mass index (BMI) remained unchanged during the study. Treatment satisfaction increased significantly in both groups after 24 weeks. Conclusion: ACC is an effective, low-cost tool to reduce HbA1c and glycemic variability in persons with basal-bolus insulin-treated type 2 diabetes without increase in hypoglycemia or BMI. Similar effects were seen with use of an ABC and with use of manual bolus calculation. Trial registration: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT02887898.

BMC Endocr Disord 2021; 21:18. [PMID: 33485357 PMCID: PMC7825237 DOI: 10.1186/s12902-021-00681-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2020] [Accepted: 01/13/2021] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Currently, there is a lack of data relating to glycemic parameters and their relationship with C-peptide (CP) and proinsulin (PI) during the partial remission period (PRP) in type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D). The aim of this study was to evaluate glycemic parameters in children with T1D who are in the PRP using intermittently scanned continuous glucose monitoring systems (isCGMS) and to investigate any relationships between CP and PI levels. METHODS The study included 21 children who were in the PRP and 31 children who were not. A cross-sectional, non-randomized study was performed. Demographic, clinical data were collected and 2 week- isCGMS data were retrieved. RESULTS The Serum CP showed a positive correlation with time-in-range in the PRP (p:0.03), however PI showed no correlations with glycemic parameters in both periods. The Serum CP and PI levels and the PI:CP ratio were significantly higher in the PRP group than in the non-PRP group. In the non-PRP group, the PI level was below 0.1 pmol/L (which is the detectable limit) in only 2 of the 17 cases as compared with none in the PRP group. Similarly, only 2 of the 17 children in the non-PRP group had CP levels of less than 0.2 nmol / L, although both had detectable PI levels. Overall time-in-range (3. 9-1.0 mmol/L) was significantly high in the PRP group. In contrast, the mean sensor glucose levels, time spent in hyperglycemia, and coefficient of variation levels (32.2vs 40.5%) were significantly lower in the PRP group. CONCLUSIONS Although the mean glucose and time in range during the PRP was better than that in the non-PRP group, the glycemic variability during this period was not as low as expected. While the CP levels showed an association with TIR during the PRP, there was no correlation between PI levels and glycemic parameters. Further studies are needed to determine if PI might prove to be a useful parameter in clinical follow-up.

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

AIMS/INTRODUCTION Studies have shown that sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors increased time-in-range (TIR; percentage of time glucose level remains between 3.9 and 10.0 mmol/L [70-180 mg/dL]) and decreased glycemic variability in patients with type 1 diabetes. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of SGLT2 inhibitors on TIR, glycemic variability and glucose control in Japanese patients with type 1 diabetes in a real clinical setting. MATERIALS AND METHODS We designed a single-arm, retrospective cohort study to analyze data from patients starting to use ipragliflozin or dapagliflozin and who used a sensor-based flash glucose monitoring system between February 2019 and August 2019. We measured TIR, time above range >180 mg/dL (percentage of time with glucose level of >180 mg/dL or >10.0 mmol/L), time below range <70 mg/dL (percentage of time with glucose level of <70 mg/dL or <3.9 mmol/L), mean glucose and standard deviation, and coefficient of variation for glycemic variability, and then compared the data before and after SGLT2 inhibitors treatments. RESULTS We enrolled 15 patients in the study. The total dosages of basal insulin decreased significantly, but the total doses of bolus insulin did not change significantly. TIR increased significantly by approximately 11.6%; the time below range <70 mg/dL remained unchanged; and the mean glucose and standard deviation decreased significantly, whereas the coefficients of variation did not. CONCLUSIONS SGLT2 inhibitors improved TIR and the mean glucose level and standard deviation without increasing the time below range <70 mg/dL in patients with type 1 diabetes.

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
AIMS The association between β-cell function and glycemic variability remains to be clarified in insulin-treated patients with type 2 diabetes. Therefore, the study sought to examine the association of various indices of β-cell function with glycemic variability in Chinese insulin-treated patients with type 2 diabetes. METHODS Glycemic variability was assessed by the coefficient of variation (CV) of glucose levels with the use of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM). Basal β-cell function was evaluated by fasting C-peptide (FCP) and the homeostasis model assessment 2 for β-cell function (HOMA2-%β). Postload β-cell function was measured by 2-hour C-peptide (2hCP) and the acute C-peptide response (ACPR) to arginine. RESULTS When a cutoff value of CV ≥ 36% was used to define unstable glucose, the multivariable-adjusted odds ratios for labile glycemic control were 0.34 (95% CI 0.18-0.64) for each 1 ng/mL increase in ACPR, 0.47 (95% CI 0.27-0.81) for each 1 ng/mL increase in FCP, 0.77 (95% CI 0.61-0.97) for each 1 ng/mL increase in 2hCP, and 1.00 (95% CI 0.98-1.01) for each 1% increase in HOMA2-%β. When we further adjusted for 2hCP and HOMA2-%β in the ACPR and FCP analyses, and adjusted for ACPR or FCP in the 2hCP analyses, only ACPR but not FCP or 2hPC remained to be a significant and inverse predictor for labile glycemic control. CONCLUSIONS ACPR evaluated by the arginine stimulation test may be superior to other commonly used β-cell function parameters to reflect glycemic fluctuation in insulin-treated patients with type 2 diabetes.
