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
Objective Vitamin D deficiency is associated with patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN), and low levels of vitamin D are common in patients with depression. Depression is common in DPN patients and the definite pathogenesis remains unclear. This study aimed to determine vitamin D deficiency in the onset of depression in DPN and evaluate the effect of vitamin D supplementation on depression. Methods A total of 192 patients with DPN were enrolled in this study. Clinical and laboratory information was collected. Chemiluminescent immunoassay was used to measure the level of 25(OH)D. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was employed to measure the concentrations of interleukin (IL)-1β, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and IL-17A. Subjects with low 25(OH)D received 5000IU vitamin D daily for 12 weeks. Depression scores and levels of 25(OH)D, IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-17A were re-evaluated after supplementation. Results The incidence of vitamin D deficiency and depression was high in DPN patients. Compared with vitamin D sufficient participants, Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD) scores and the levels of inflammatory markers IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-17A were significantly higher in insufficient group (all p<0.05). HAMD score, IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-17A were negatively correlated with 25(OH)D (all p<0.05). A linear relationship existed among IL-1β, TNF-α, IL-17A, and 25(OH)D (p<0.05). HAMD scores, IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-17A were all reduced significantly after supplementation of vitamin D (p<0.05). Binary logistic analysis revealed that vitamin D insufficiency was an independent risk factor for depression in patients with DPN. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis showed a high sensitivity (87.20%) of 25(OH)D in discriminating DPN patients with depression. Conclusion Vitamin D deficiency participated in occurrence of depression in DPN patients and could be mediated, at least in part, by upregulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Vitamin D supplementation may be effective in improving depressive symptoms in DPN patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Vitamin D has been linked to diabetic neuropathy (DN) in previous epidemiological observational studies, however, their findings are inconsistent. The causal relationship between vitamin D and DN remains unknown. In this study we aim to investigate the causal association of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) and DN. METHODS Based on summary statistics from publicly available genome-wide association studies (GWAS) database, we detected the genetic correlation between serum 25OHD levels and DN by a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis. The inverse-variance weighted (IVW) method was used as the primary analysis, weighted median and MR-Egger were applied as complementary methods for MR estimates. In addition, we took sensitivity analyses including Cochran's Q test, MR-Pleiotropy Residual Sum and Outlier (MR-PRESSO) and leave-one-out analysis to ensure that we obtained stable and reliable results. RESULTS Our MR study showed no significant genetic association between serum 25OHD levels and DN (OR = 1.13, 95% CI = 0.81-1.57, P = 0.46). Furthermore, in the reverse direction analysis, we did not find a significant causal effect of DN and serum 25OHD levels (OR = 0.99, 95% CI = 0.98-1.00, P = 0.09). Results of MR-Egger, Weighted Median were consistent with those of the IVW method. The sensitivity analysis suggesting that no significant heterogeneity and genetic pleiotropy was observed. CONCLUSIONS Our results provided no evidence to support the causal association of serum 25OHD levels with DN.

Abstract
Observational studies, randomized controlled trials (RCTs), and Mendelian randomization (MR) studies have yielded inconsistent results on the associations of vitamin D concentrations with multiple health outcomes. In the present umbrella review we aimed to evaluate the effects of low vitamin D concentrations and vitamin D supplementation on multiple health outcomes. We summarized current evidence obtained from meta-analyses of observational studies that examined associations between vitamin D concentrations and multiple health outcomes, meta-analyses of RCTs that investigated the effect of vitamin D supplementation on multiple health outcomes, and MR studies that explored the causal associations of vitamin D concentrations with various diseases (international prospective register of systematic reviews PROSPERO registration number CRD42018091434). A total of 296 meta-analyses of observational studies comprising 111 unique outcomes, 139 meta-analyses of RCTs comprising 46 unique outcomes, and 73 MR studies comprising 43 unique outcomes were included in the present umbrella review. Twenty-eight disease outcomes were identified by both meta-analyses of observational studies and MR studies. Seventeen of these reported disease outcomes had consistent results, demonstrating that lower concentrations of vitamin D were associated with a higher risk for all-cause mortality, Alzheimer's disease, hypertension, schizophrenia, and type 2 diabetes. The combinations of consistent evidence obtained by meta-analyses of observational studies and MR studies together with meta-analyses of RCTs showed that vitamin D supplementation was associated with a decreased risk for all-cause mortality but not associated with the risk for Alzheimer's disease, hypertension, schizophrenia, or type 2 diabetes. The results indicated that vitamin D supplementation is a promising strategy with long-term preventive effects on multiple chronic diseases and thus has the potential to decrease all-cause mortality. However, the current vitamin D supplementation strategy might not be an efficient intervention approach for these diseases, suggesting that new strategies are highly needed to improve the intervention outcomes.

Abstract
Background: The exact pathogenic mechanism of the painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is poorly understood. Our study aimed to evaluate the association amongst vitamin D status, inflammatory cytokines, and painful DPN. Methods: A total of 483 patients were divided into three groups, i.e., diabetes without DPN (no-DPN, n = 86), diabetes with painless DPN (painless DPN, n = 176) and diabetes with painful DPN (painful DPN, n = 221) groups. Basic information and laboratory results were collected. The concentrations of vitamin D (25-hydroxyvitamin D), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, interleukin (IL)-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and interferon-γ (IFN-γ) were also measured. Results: The prevalence of severe vitamin D deficiency (<10 ng/mL) was more common in the painful DPN group than in the painless DPN and no-DPN groups (25.8,12.5, and 8.1%, respectively, P < 0.01). Cases in the painful DPN group had significantly higher concentrations of IL-6 (P < 0.01) and TNF-α (P < 0.01) than those in the two other groups. The multivariate logistic analysis showed that severe vitamin D deficiency, IL-6, and TNF-α were independent risks for painful DPN after adjusting for confounding factors. Furthermore, the vitamin D status had significantly negative correlations with IL-6 (r = -0.56, P < 0.01) and TNF-α (r = -0.47, P < 0.01) levels. Conclusion: Severe vitamin D deficiency was an independent risk factor for the painful DPN. Severe vitamin D deficiency status may play a role in the painful DPN pathogenesis through elevated IL-6 and TNF-α levels.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate the relationship between hemoglobin glycation variation index (HGI) and peripheral nerve conduction velocity (NCV) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). MATERIALS AND METHODS This is a cross-sectional study, including 324 patients with T2DM were included in this study. Basic information and blood indicators were collected. The motor conduction velocities (MCV) of the bilateral ulnar nerve, median nerve, and common peroneal nerve, and the sensory conduction velocities (SCV) of the ulnar nerve, median nerve, and superficial peroneal nerve were measured. The patients were divided into two groups according to the NCV: normal nerve conduction group (NCVN group) and abnormal nerve conduction group (NCVA group). When the NCV is less than the specific normal value, the patients were divided into the NCVA group. HGI was calculated as the difference between the measured and predicted values of glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) using the linear relationship between HbA1c level and fasting plasma glucose levels. At last, all study participants were divided into High HGI and Low HGI groups using the median of HGI as the boundary. The study also analyzed the correlation between HGI and NCV. RESULTS Compared to the NCVN group, the HGI levels of the NCVA group were higher (P < 0.001). The prevalence of NCVA in the high HGI group was higher than that in the low HGI group (P = 0.004). HGI was negatively correlated with bilateral ulnar nerve MCV, bilateral median nerve MCV, bilateral common peroneal nerve MCV, bilateral median nerve SCV and left superficial peroneal nerve SCV, and the correlation still existed after adjusting for confounding factors. CONCLUSION This study found that HGI is inversely associated with NCV in patients with T2DM, and this correlation is higher between HGI and MCV of peripheral nerve.

Abstract
BACKGROUND: Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus is one of the most common metabolic diseases worldwide. The most common complication of DM is diabetic neuropathy (DN), especially diabetic polyneuropathy (DPN). Vitamin D plays an important role in the pathogenesis of DN, thus affecting its severity which can be assessed using nerve conduction study (NCS). AIM: This study aimed to develop a predictive model of DPN severity based on vitamin D level. METHODS: This was a prospective cohort study involving 50 subjects with DM which was conducted in Haji Adam Malik General Hospital Medan. All subjects were fulfilling inclusion criteria underwent laboratory examination to determine HbA1c and 25 (OH) D levels. Predictive variables were sex, age, duration of DM, smoking status, type and number of anti-diabetic drugs, the presence of metabolic syndrome, HbA1c and vitamin D levels. A scoring system was developed to determine a predictive model. The DPN severity was assessed using NCS and was re-evaluated after 3 months. RESULTS: Most of the subjects were female (60%), belonged to ≥ 50 years old age-group (88%), with DM duration < 5 years (56%), were non-smoker (90%), we’re using one anti-diabetic drug (60%), were using insulin (50%), had metabolic syndrome (68%), had HbA1c level > 6.5% (94%), and had vitamin D level < 20 ng/ml (56%). A score of > 4 on this predictive model of DPN severity had a relative risk (RR) of 2.70. The predictive model had a sensitivity of 82.8% and specificity of 61.9%. CONCLUSION: A score of higher than 4 on this predictive model showed a 2.7 times higher risk of severe DPN. A predictive model of DPN severity based on vitamin D level had high sensitivity and specificity.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The prevalence of diabetes mellitus and its chronic complications are increasing to epidemic proportions. This will unfortunately result in massive increases in diabetic distal symmetrical polyneuropathy (DPN) and its troublesome sequelae, including disabling neuropathic pain (painful-DPN), which affects around 25% of patients with diabetes. Why these patients develop neuropathic pain, while others with a similar degree of neuropathy do not, is not clearly understood. This review will look at recent advances that may shed some light on the differences between painful and painless-DPN. RECENT FINDINGS Gender, clinical pain phenotyping, serum biomarkers, brain imaging, genetics, and skin biopsy findings have been reported to differentiate painful- from painless-DPN. Painful-DPN seems to be associated with female gender and small fiber dysfunction. Moreover, recent brain imaging studies have found neuropathic pain signatures within the central nervous system; however, whether this is the cause or effect of the pain is yet to be determined. Further research is urgently required to develop our understanding of the pathogenesis of pain in DPN in order to develop new and effective mechanistic treatments for painful-DPN.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus, a metabolic disorder associated with chronic complications, is traditionally classified into two main subtypes. Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) results from gradual pancreatic islet β cell autoimmune destruction, extending over months or years. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a heterogeneous disorder, with both insulin resistance and impairment in insulin secretion contributing to its pathogenesis. Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin with an established role in calcium metabolism. Recently, several studies have provided evidence suggesting a role for it in various non-skeletal metabolic conditions, including both types of diabetes mellitus. Preclinical studies of vitamin D action on insulin secretion, insulin action, inflammatory processes, and immune regulation, along with evidence of an increase of hypovitaminosis D worldwide, have prompted several epidemiological, observational, and supplementation clinical studies investigating a potential biological interaction between hypovitaminosis D and diabetes. This narrative review aims to summarize current knowledge on the effect of vitamin D on T1DM and T2DM pathogenesis, prevention, and treatment, as well as on micro- and macrovascular complications of the disease. Furthermore, on the basis of current existing evidence, we aim to highlight areas for potential future research.

Abstract
Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is highly prevalent and affects up to 50% of patients with diabetes. Painful neuropathic symptoms may occur in a third of patients with diabetes and is a major cause of sleep disturbance, morbidity and poor quality of life. Effective treatment of DPN remains a major challenge as current therapeutic options have a number of undesirable side effects and only provide a partial response to neuropathic pain. Furthermore, there are a lack of treatments that modulate the natural history of DPN. A growing body of evidence suggests that vitamin B and vitamin D may have analgesic effects and neuroprotective benefits in DPN. This narrative review explores the role of these vitamins in DPN. Given their limited side effects, further mechanistic studies and good quality randomized controlled trials of their putative analgesic ability are required to define the role of vitamin B and D in DPN.

Abstract
The incidence of both type 2 and type 1 diabetes mellitus has been increasing worldwide. Vitamin D deficiency, or the awareness of its prevalence, has also been increasing. Vitamin D may have a role in the pathogenic mechanisms predisposing to type 2 diabetes by modulating insulin resistance and/or pancreatic β-cell function. Vitamin D status or elements involved in its activation or transport may also be involved in the development of type 1 diabetes mellitus through immunomodulatory role . Based on these observations a potential association between vitamin D and diabetes has been hypothesized. In this review we discuss up to date evidence linking vitamin D with the development of diabetes. Moreover, the role of vitamin D supplementation in the prevention of both types of diabetes is analysed together with its role in improving glycemic control in diabetic patients. We also address the potential role of vitamin D deficiency in the development of macro- and microvascular complications in diabetes. Finally, we provide recommendation for Vitamin D therapy in diabetes in view of current evidence and highlight areas for potential future research in this area.

High and low vitamin D level is associated with cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy in people with Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes. Diabet Med 2017; 34:364-371.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the possible association between vitamin D deficiency and cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy in people with diabetes. METHODS A total of 113 people with Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes [mean (interquartile range) diabetes duration 22.0 (12-31) years, mean (sd) age 56.2 (13.0) years, 58% men] underwent vitamin D (D2 and D3) assessment, and were screened for cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy using three cardiovascular reflex tests [heart rate response to deep breathing (E/I ratio), to standing (30/15 ratio) and to the Valsalva manoeuvre] and assessment of 5-min resting heart rate and heart rate variability indices. RESULTS We found an inverse U-shaped association between serum vitamin D level and E/I ratio, 30/15 ratio and three heart rate variability indices (P < 0.05). Vitamin D level was non-linearly associated with cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy diagnosis (P < 0.05 adjusted for age and sex). Linear regression models showed that an increase in vitamin D level from 25 to 50 nmol/l was associated with an increase of 3.9% (95% CI 0.1;7.9) in E/I ratio and 4.8% (95% CI 4.7;9.3) in 30/15 ratio. Conversely, an increase from 125 to 150 nmol/l in vitamin D level was associated with a decrease of 2.6% (95% CI -5.8;0.1) and 4.1% (95% CI -5.8;-0.5) in the respective outcome measures. CONCLUSIONS High and low vitamin D levels were associated with cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy in people with diabetes. Future studies should explore this association and the efficacy of treating dysvitaminosis D to prevent cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy.

Abstract
The objective was to provide the current state of the art regarding the role of vitamin D in chronic diseases (osteoporosis, cancer, cardiovascular diseases, dementia, autism, type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus, male and female fertility). The document was drawn up by panelists that provided their contribution according to their own scientific expertise. Each scientific expert supplied a first draft manuscript on a specific aspect of the document's topic that was subjected to voting by all experts as "yes" (agreement with the content and/or wording) or "no" (disagreement). The adopted rule was that statements supported by ≥75 % of votes would be immediately accepted, while those with <25 % would be rejected outright. Others would be subjected to further discussion and subsequent voting, where ≥67 % support or, in an eventual third round, a majority of ≥50 % would be needed. This document finds that the current evidence support a role for vitamin D in bone health but not in other health conditions. However, subjects with vitamin D deficiency have been found to be at high risk of developing chronic diseases. Therefore, although at the present time there is not sufficient evidence to recommend vitamin D supplementation as treatment of chronic diseases, the treatment of vitamin D deficiency should be desiderable in order to reduce the risk of developing chronic diseases.
