Abstract
INTRODUCTION In recent years, several studies have reported on the relationship between diabetes and carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). However, due to their contradictory results, a systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted to investigate this subject. METHODS This study is a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies published in ISI Web of Science, Scopus, PubMed, Cochrane, Google Scholar, and Embase databases. Heterogeneity in the studies included in the meta-analysis was evaluated using statistical tests such as the Chi-square test, I2, and forest plots. Publication bias was assessed using Begg's and Egger's tests. RESULTS This investigation analyzed data from 42 studies conducted between 1985 and 2022, with a total of 3,377,816 participants. The meta-analysis demonstrated that the odds ratio (OR) of CTS in participants with a history of diabetes compared to those without was 1.90 (95% CI: 1.64-2.21; P-value < 0.001). Given that publication bias was observed in this study (Begg's test P-value = 0.01), the modified OR was calculated with consideration of missed studies, which was 1.68 (95% CI: 1.45-1.94; P-value < 0.001). CONCLUSION The results of this study suggest that diabetic patients have 90% higher odds of developing CTS compared to non-diabetic individuals, which is statistically significant.

Abstract
Introduction Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a growing public health problem causing a significant amount of disability and mortality in Nigeria. Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are common complications associated with DM. However, studies on the prevalence of MSDs and their associated factors are limited in Nigeria, particularly in the northwest region. The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of MSDs and their associated factors among individuals with DM in northwest, Nigeria. Material and methods A retrospective cross-sectional survey of medical case records of all consecutive patients with DM attending a diabetic clinic in Ahmadu Bello University Teaching Hospital, Zaria was conducted between February 2015 and September 2021. Data on sociodemographic and clinical variables was collected using a researcher-designed questionnaire and analysed using descriptive statistics and logistic regression models. Results Four hundred eighty-nine cases (170 men [34.8%], 319 females [65.2%]; mean age: 51.4 ±12.3 years) were analysed. The majority of the participants had type 2 DM (96.7%), with a mean DM duration of 7.02 ±5.05 years. The overall prevalence of MSDs was 32.7%, with the highest prevalence found for lumbosacral spondylosis (11%) followed by knee osteoarthritis (8.4%). Among the different potential predictors examined, only duration of DM was significantly associated with overall MSDs (AOR: 1.76, 95% CI: 1.04-2.98; p = 0.035) whereas both duration of DM (AOR: 2.64, 95% CI: 1.19-5.89; p = 0.018) and body mass index (AOR: 7.461, 95% CI: 1.33-43.8; p = 0.023) were significantly associated with lumbosacral spondylosis. Conclusions Approximately one-third of the study participants had MSDs, with lumbosacral spondylosis being the most frequently occurring disorder. Being obese and having a longer duration of DM were associated with MSDs. Clinicians in Nigeria need to pay attention to MSDs and related factors in DM patients by conducting routine assessments and implementing early treatment.

Abstract
Introduction Diabetes is a chronic disorder with long-term sequelae and multisystem manifestation. Burden of diabetes in on the rise. Presence of other morbidities can not only have a detrimental effect on the disease treatment and recovery course, but also on the financial burden and quality of life. Present study aims to investigate how musculoskeletal conditions affect individuals with diabetes compared to those without the condition. Material and Methods A comparative study was conducted among patients attending the outpatient department of a tertiary care hospital in North India to assess the burden of musculoskeletal disorders in people with and without diabetes. A total of 195 diabetes patients and an equal number of individuals without diabetes were sequentially enrolled from the outpatient department (OPD). Results Burden of musculoskeletal comorbidities was significantly higher (46.2%) among people with diabetes than the comparison group (25.1%). The overall odds ratio (OR) for comorbidities of musculoskeletal system was 2.5 times higher in diabetes cases as compared to individuals without diabetes. The OR for rheumatoid arthritis, chronic backache, and osteoarthritis was found to be 3.6, 2.9, and 1.7 respectively. Poor quality of life and higher direct cost of treatment were found among diabetes cases with musculoskeletal comorbidities as against those without these comorbidities. Conclusion Presence of musculoskeletal comorbidity is high among diabetes patients, and it has an impact on the quality of life and treatment cost. Screening for musculoskeletal comorbidities should be included as part of the diabetes complication assessment to allow for early detection and treatment.

Abstract
AIMS The study objective was to explore how upper extremity impairments (UEIs) affect the everyday life and work-life of people with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and to compare them to a control group without T1D to determine if there are diabetes-specific consequences of UEIs. METHODS In a controlled cross-sectional study, a survey was distributed across all regions of Denmark. A total of 2174 people with T1D and 827 controls were included in the study population. The survey addressed UEI symptoms, employment status, functional disability, mental well-being and diabetes distress. Data were analysed using multivariable logistic and linear regression. RESULTS Upper extremity impairments were associated with a higher rate of work absence and modification, but no more so for people with T1D than for the control group. Among people with T1D, UEIs were significantly associated with worse mental well-being and diabetes distress, and across all outcomes including functional disability, additive effects were found with an increasing number of coexisting impairments. The impact of UEIs on functional disability was more severe for the T1D group than the control group, but this was primarily due to differences in the number of coexisting impairments. CONCLUSIONS Upper extremity impairments have significant negative implications for the work-life and everyday life of people with T1D, and interventions to reduce UEIs and their impact among this group are highly relevant.

Abstract
Background The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is the most commonly used joint in the human body. Recent studies have shown pathologic relationships between inflammation, diabetes, and musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). Chewing disorder is a significant sign of dysfunction in the masticatory system. This study investigated dietary pattern changes in response to TMJ inflammation in diabetic rats. Methods This experimental study was carried out on 30 male rats. The rats were fed concentrated 20-mg dietary tablets. Complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) was used to induce TMJ inflammation and streptozotocin (STZ) was used to induce diabetes. The animals were randomly divided into three groups (n=10), including group I (CFA+STZ), group II (healthy rats+CFA), and group III (healthy rats, no injection). Parameters such as overall food intake, food intake duration, food intake frequency, and the interval between meals were recorded in a checklist and analyzed by Mann-Whitney and Kruskal-Wallis tests (P<0.05). Results The results showed no significant difference between groups in overall food intake and food intake frequency on days 0 and 1, but this difference was significant from day 2 to day 7. Regarding the time and end of food intake, there was a significant difference between the three groups from day 1 to day 7, but this difference was not significant on day zero. Conclusion Dietary pattern changes were similar in the diabetic TMJ inflammation and TMJ inflammation groups. These changes can be used as a behavioral marker for TMJ inflammation in rats.

Abstract
The current study ushers in a comprehensive review in clinical research to demonstrate the prevalence of musculoskeletal (MSK) complications in diabetes mellitus and the most relevant clinical aspects. In particular, revealing the early symptoms of the disorders, the pathology lurking behind the complications and their optimal management. In diabetes mellitus, MSK complications are common and are largely due to similar pathogenetic factors responsible for the internal organ complications associated with diabetes leading to chronic low-intensity inflammatory processes. MSK disorders develop by vasculopathy, neuropathy, arthropathy or combinations of the above, which are not specific to diabetes. However, their prevalence is significantly increased in diabetes and contributes to the disability impairing patients' quality of life. Locomotor disease affects approximately 34.4-83.5 % of patients suffering from type-2 diabetes mellitus. Several musculoskeletal abnormalities (cheiroarthropathy, Dupuytren's contracture, trigger finger, ect.) can be diagnosed upon physical examination, although certain symptoms (frozen shoulder, neurogenic arthropathy, septic arthritis, etc.) require differential diagnostic considerations. Early identification regarding characteristic symptoms in the treatment reducing inflammation and pain, followed with increasingly strenuous exercise therapy, aligned with optimal management of carbohydrate metabolism, proves essential in alleviating MSK complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patellar tendinopathy (PT) is a common problem in jumping athletes. Management can be challenging and treatment outcome is not always successful. In combination with tendon loading exercises, hydrolyzed collagen/vitamin C supplementation appears to have a promising effect on the recovery of tendinopathy. The aim of this study is to evaluate whether the use of oral supplementation of hydrolyzed collagen and vitamin C in combination with progressive tendon loading exercises (PTLE) is superior to PTLE and placebo on VISA-P score (which rates pain, function, sports participation) after 24 weeks for athletes with PT. METHODS The JUMPFOOD study is a double-blinded, two-armed randomized controlled trial, in which the effectiveness of oral supplementation of hydrolyzed collagen/vitamin C combined with PTLE compared to PTLE with placebo on pain and recovery of function in athletes with PT will be investigated. Seventy-six athletes aged 16-40 years, with symptoms of PT for at least 12 weeks, who play sports at least once a week will be included. All participants will receive education, advice with regard to load management and a PTLE program according to the Dutch guidelines for anterior knee pain. In addition, the intervention group will receive daily 10 g hydrolyzed collagen and 40 mg vitamin C supplementation for 24 weeks whereas the control group receives 10 g maltodextrin placebo supplementation. Measurements will take place at baseline and at 12 and 24 weeks' follow-up. Primary outcome is the VISA-P score, which evaluates pain, function, and sports participation. For secondary outcome measures, data with regard to pain during functional tests, flexibility measurements, blood withdrawals, imaging characteristics of the tendon, and health questionnaires will be collected. During the follow-up period, participants will register sports participation, amount of training and tendon load, pain during sports, co-medication, and side-effects in a digital weekly diary. DISCUSSION The JUMPFOOD study is the first large RCT to study the effectiveness of hydrolyzed collagen/vitamin C supplementation in combination with the PTLE program in athletes with patellar tendinopathy. If supplementation of collagen/vitamin C appears to be effective, this treatment can be implemented in daily sports medicine practice to improve the treatment outcome of patients with PT. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov NCT05407194. Registered on 7 June 2022.

Abstract
Aims Diabetic cheiroarthropathies limit hand mobility due to fibrosis and could be markers of a global profibrotic trajectory. Heterogeneity in definitions and lack of a method to measure it complicate studying associations with organ involvement and treatment outcomes. We measured metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joint extension as a metric and describe magnetic resonance (MR) imaging determinants of MCP restriction. Methods Adults with type 1 diabetes were screened for hand manifestations using a symptom questionnaire, clinical examination, and function [Duruoz hand index (DHI) and grip strength]. Patients were segregated by mean MCP extension (<20°, 20°-40°, 40°-60°, and >60°) for MR imaging (MRI) scanning. Patients in the four groups were compared using ANOVA for clinical features and MRI tissue measurements (tenosynovial, skin, and fascia thickness). We performed multiple linear regression for determinants of MCP extension. Results Of the 237 patients (90 men), 79 (33.8%) with cheiroarthropathy had MCP extension limitation (39° versus 61°, p < 0.01). Groups with limited MCP extension had higher DHI (1.9 vs. 0.2) but few (7%) had pain. Height, systolic blood pressure, and nephropathy were associated with mean MCP extension. Hand MRI (n = 61) showed flexor tenosynovitis in four patients and median neuritis in one patient. Groups with MCP mobility restriction had the thickest palmar skin; tendon thickness or median nerve area did not differ. Only mean palmar skin thickness was associated with MCP extension angle on multiple linear regression. Conclusion Joint mobility limitation was quantified by restricted mean MCP extension and had structural correlates on MRI. These can serve as quantitative measures for future associative and interventional studies.

Abstract
Introduction Diabetic cheiroarthropathy (DCA), also known as the syndrome of limited joint mobility (LJM), is among the most underdiagnosed complications of diabetes mellitus (DM). Although not severe, it can hamper the day-to-day activities of the patient and significantly reduce the quality of life. It is hypothesized to be due to increased glycation of collagen around joints. The objective of our study was to examine the association of diabetic cheiroarthropathy with microvascular complications of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods The study was conducted on 251 previously diagnosed cases of type 2 DM. Patients with previous contractures due to any other cause, who are diagnosed cases of rheumatoid arthritis and scleroderma, and other risk factors such as cardiac or renal disease were excluded from the study. All subjects were subjected to a detailed clinical history including a past history, thorough physical examination, prayer test, tabletop sign, and passive extension of fingers. Patients who are diagnosed with diabetic cheiroarthropathy were then screened for microalbuminuria, fundus examination, and monofilament test and clinical examination to look for the presence of microvascular complications. Results Out of the 251 patients, 46 (18.3%) were found to have diabetic cheiroarthropathy. Fifteen (34.9%) cheiroarthropathy patients had neuropathy compared to 14.9% without diabetic cheiroarthropathy, which was statistically significant. We found that there was an increased incidence of diabetic neuropathy in subjects with cheiroarthropathy. Thirty (35.7%) patients with diabetic cheiroarthropathy had diabetic retinopathy compared to 9.6% without diabetic cheiroarthropathy. Twenty-six (26.8%) patients with diabetic cheiroarthropathy had diabetic nephropathy compared to 13% without diabetic cheiroarthropathy. We identified from our study that patients with diabetic cheiroarthropathy had an increased risk of developing microvascular complications. Conclusion There is an increased prevalence of diabetic nephropathy, diabetic neuropathy, and diabetic retinopathy in patients with diabetic cheiroarthropathy. The presence of diabetic cheiroarthropathy hence warrants better control of the patient's glycemic status to prevent further deterioration of diabetes-related complications.

Asymptomatic Hyperuricemia Is Associated with Achilles Tendon Rupture through Disrupting the Normal Functions of Tendon Stem/Progenitor Cells. Stem Cells Int 2022; 2022:6795573.

Abstract
Hyperuricemia is a metabolic disorder that is essential to the development of inflammatory gout, with increasing prevalence over recent years. Emerging clinical findings has evidenced remarkable tendon damage in individuals with longstanding asymptomatic hyperuricemia, yet the impact of hyperuricemia on tendon homeostasis and associated repercussions is largely unknown. Here, we investigated whether asymptomatic hyperuricemia was associated with spontaneous ruptures in the Achilles tendon and the pathological effect of hyperuricemia on the tendon stem/progenitor cells (TSPCs). Significantly higher serum uric acid (SUA) levels were found in 648 closed Achilles tendon rupture (ATR) patients comparing to those in 12559 healthy volunteers. In vitro study demonstrated that uric acid (UA) dose dependently reduced rat Achilles TSPC viability, decreased the expressions of tendon collagens, and deformed their structural organization while significantly increased the transcript levels of matrix degradative enzymes and proinflammatory factors. Consistently, marked disruptions in Achilles tendon tissue structural and functional integrity were found in a rat model of hyperuricemia, together with enhanced immune cell infiltration. Transcriptome analysis revealed a significant elevation in genes involved in metabolic stress and tissue degeneration in TSPCs challenged by hyperuricemia. Specifically, reduced activity of the AKT-mTOR pathway with enhanced autophagic signaling was confirmed. Our findings indicate that asymptomatic hyperuricemia may be a predisposition of ATR by impeding the normal functions of TSPCs. This information may provide theoretical and experimental basis for exploring the early prevention and care of ATR.

Abstract
AIMS Myokine developmental endothelial locus-1 (DEL-1) has been documented to alleviate inflammation and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in various cell types. However, the effects of DEL-1 on inflammation, ER stress, and apoptosis in tenocytes remain unclear. METHODS Human primary tenocytes were cultured in palmitate (400 μM) and palmitate plus DEL-1 (0 to 2 μg/ml) conditions for 24 hours. The expression levels of ER stress markers and cleaved caspase 3, as well as phosphorylated 5' adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and autophagy markers, were assessed by Western blotting. Autophagosome formation was measured by staining with monodansylcadaverine, and apoptosis was determined by cell viability assay and caspase 3 activity assay. RESULTS We found that treatment with DEL-1 suppressed palmitate-induced inflammation, ER stress, and apoptosis in human primary tenocytes. DEL-1 treatment augmented LC3 conversion and p62 degradation as well as AMPK phosphorylation. Moreover, small interfering RNA for AMPK or 3-methyladenine (3-MA), an autophagy inhibitor, abolished the suppressive effects of DEL-1 on inflammation, ER stress, and apoptosis in tenocytes. Similar to DEL-1, 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide (AICAR), an activator of AMPK, also attenuated palmitate-induced inflammation, ER stress, and apoptosis in tenocytes, which 3-MA reversed. CONCLUSION These results revealed that DEL-1 suppresses inflammation and ER stress, thereby attenuating tenocyte apoptosis through AMPK/autophagy-mediated signalling. Thus, regular exercise or administration of DEL-1 may directly contribute to improving tendinitis exacerbated by obesity and insulin resistance.Cite this article: Bone Joint Res 2022;11(12):854-861.

Abstract
Objectives The objectives of the study were to investigate the neuromusculoskeletal complications of Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and their associated factors, including the level of physical activity (PA) and clinicodemographic characteristics. Materials and Methods In this cross-sectional analysis, we included 370 participants diagnosed with T2DM for no <1 year who satisfied the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Demographic and clinical characteristics were noted and a thorough clinical examination was performed on all the participants. International PA Questionnaire-Short Form was used to evaluate the level of PA of the participants. The continuous data is presented as mean ± SD and the categorical data is presented as the number of participants (n) and percentage (%). A logistic regression model was used to investigate the predictors for the prevalence of the complications. Results The mean duration of T2DM was 7.32 ± 5.53 years and the mean hemoglobin A1C (HbA1c) level (%) was 8.16±1.67. A majority of the participants were having uncontrolled diabetes with an HbA1c level ≥7.5% (n = 190; 51.35%). The level of PA was low in a substantial proportion of the participants (n = 276; 74.59%). A total of 162 (43.78%) participants were diagnosed with neuromusculoskeletal complications. Low back pain was the most common complication and degenerative disk disease was the most common diagnosis overall. Longer duration of diabetes, poor glycemic control, and low PA were associated with the prevalence of neuromusculoskeletal complications (P < 0.05). Conclusion Neuromusculoskeletal complications of T2DM are common and can result in significant disability in this population. Low PA is very common among T2DM patients and an important contributor to the development of complications. Health-care providers should consider PA an integral component of the management protocol for T2DM patients.

Abstract
Our aim in this study was to compare hand skills, visual-motor integration ability, and participation in daily living activities of children with and without Type 1 diabetes (T1DM). In this prospective cross-sectional study, we included 44 children withT1DM (17 males, 27 females; aged 8-12 years) and a control group of 45 healthy age-matched children without T1DM (22 males, 23 females). We compared group scores on the Jebsen-Taylor Hand Function Test (JTHFT), the Beery-Buktenica Developmental Visual Motor Integration Test (Beery VMI), and on the Participation and Environment Measure - Children and Youth (PEM-CY). The JTHFT and Beery VMI scores of children with T1DM were significantly lower than those of the control group (p ≤ 0.005); on the PEM-CY, children with T1DM were found to have more barriers in the community than controls. Relative deficits in hand skills and visual motor integration of children with T1DM should be managed with greater attention and assistance.

Abstract
Objective: Understanding the underlying mechanisms behind shoulder dysfunctions in patients with diabetes mellitus. Study Design: Systematic qualitative literature review. Participants: Patients with shoulder dysfunctions and diagnosed with impaired glucose tolerance or diabetes mellitus. Intervention: Published scientific literature containing evidence about the mechanisms of shoulder dysfunctions in the diabetic population. Articles were selected based on criteria containing diabetic population, shoulder dysfunction, methodological quality ≥ 6/9 and >20 subjects. Main Outcome measures: range of motion; questionnaires (QoL, UCLA-m, SPADI, DASH); blood glucose, blood HbA1C; calculated capsular stiffness (Kcap); calcification shoulder joint; shoulder dysfunction in patients with glucose metabolism disorders and diabetes mellitus. Results: We found 17 published articles with level 2 and 3 evidence. Multiple factors such as age, duration of diabetes mellitus (DM), glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), advanced glycation end products (AGE), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), interleukin-1ß (IL-1ß) were shown to be associated with tendon changes and increased capsular stiffness (Kcap) conceivably leading to limited range of motion (ROM) or frozen shoulder. Decreased ROM and frozen shoulder have a significantly higher prevalence in DM than in non-DM. Conclusions: Based on the current literature we confirm a high prevalence of shoulder dysfunctions in patients with diabetes mellitus. The cause of the shoulder complications is unknown, and more research is mandatory to shed more light on the complex interplay between the multifactorial causes of shoulder dysfunction in diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
Diabetes is a frequently occurring chronic metabolic disease that is characterized by a high blood glucose levels. If left unchecked, it can lead to severe functional impairments such as blindness, renal failure, and coronary artery disease. Approximately 463 million adults (20-79 years) are living with diabetes; by 2045 this will rise to 700 million. Material and method: A cross-sectional survey was conducted in National Institute of Diabetes and Endocrinology, Dow University Hospital, Ojha campus. Patients who had T2DM, and were above 35 years of age were included in the study. Anthropometric measurements were recorded, and the remaining data was collected via a self-reporting questionnaire. Results and discussions: In this study n=55(36.2%) participants were male and n=97(63.8%) were female, with the average age of 52.9 years, and an average BMI of 29.5kg/m2. The mean HBA1C of those diabetic patients was 8.8, and average duration of diabetes of our sample was 6.7 years. Prevalence of MSK disorders was 55.3%. Conclusions: There is a high prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders among diabetic pa-tients. There was poor knowledge that upper limb musculoskeletal problems could occur due to diabetes, and a small percentage of patients sought physical therapy treatment for these disor-ders.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF THE STUDY This study aimed to assess the prevalence of carpal tunnel syndrome and associated factors among diabetic patients in Arba Minch General Hospital, Southwest Ethiopia. Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is the second most common cause of absence from work which causes functional loss of the hands and leads to disability. However, it is understudied among diabetic patients in Ethiopia. PATIENTS AND MATERIALS An institution-based cross-sectional study was conducted from May 1 to October 1, 2021. Systematic random sampling method was used to select 353 study participants. CTS-6 Evaluation tool was applied to assess carpal tunnel syndrome. The data was coded and entered into Epi-Data version 3.1 statistical packages and exported to SPSS version 25 for analysis. Binary logistic regression model was applied to assess the association between outcome variable and independent variables. Odds ratio (OR) with 95% CI and p-values <0.05 were used to identify significantly associated factors with an outcome variable. RESULTS The study was conducted among 353 diabetic patients. The cumulative prevalence of carpal tunnel syndrome among diabetes was 3.1%. CTS was statistically significantly associated with high body mass index; AOR=0.34 (0.12, 0.97, 95% CI) (p=0.04. Majority of participants 322 (91.2%) had type 2 DM. Mean fasting blood sugar level ± standard error of study participants was 157.52 ± 1.91 mg/dl. CONCLUSION The prevalence of carpal tunnel syndrome was relatively low. High body mass index (BMI) was significantly but negatively associated with carpal tunnel syndrome compared to diabetic patients with normal BMI. Diabetic patients with normal BMI should be screened for CTS for early management of the disease and prevention of further complications. Further investigations are recommended.

Abstract
Background and AimTrigger finger (TF) or stenosing tenosynovitis has been associated with diabetes mellitus (DM), although today’s knowledge is mostly based on cross-sectional and case-control studies. Thus, the aim of the present population-based cohort study over more than 20 years was to investigate DM as a risk factor for TF.MethodsData from Malmö Diet and Cancer Study (MDCS), including 30,446 individuals, were analysed with regards to baseline DM and known or potential confounders. Information regarding TF diagnosis until study end date of Dec 31st, 2018, was retrieved from the Swedish National Patient Register (NPR) using ICD-codes. Survival probability was investigated in Kaplan-Meier plots. Cox proportional hazard regression model was used to evaluate DM as risk factor for TF, adjusted for several confounders and presented as Hazard Ratio (HR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI).ResultsAt baseline, 4.6% (1,393/30,357) participants had DM. In total, 3.2% (974/30,357) participants were diagnosed with TF during the study period. Kaplan-Meier plot showed that the probability for incident TF was significantly higher in participants with baseline DM compared with individuals without baseline DM. Adjusted HR for DM as risk factor for TF was 2.0 (95% CI: 1.5-2.6, p<0.001).ConclusionThis longitudinal study showed that DM is an important risk factor for developing TF. When adjusting for sex, age, BMI, manual work, statin use, smoking and alcohol consumption, DM remained the main risk factor for TF.

Abstract
STUDY DESIGN Cross-sectional INTRODUCTION: Globally, diabetes is a leading cause of disability with an increased prevalence rate in the past three decades. Chronic diabetes has been shown to affect collagenous tissue which often leads to subsequent musculoskeletal complications. Despite increasing prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders, the proportion and distribution of types of upper extremity musculoskeletal disorders resulting in disabilities is poorly understood. PURPOSE OF THE STUDY This cross-sectional study aims to gather data on the prevalence, proportion and distribution of upper extremity musculoskeletal disorders among individuals with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Further, this study examines the relationship between common upper extremity disorders and the resulting disability among individuals with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. METHODS 170 individuals diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus were recruited at a tertiary care hospital. Routine upper extremity assessments were performed to identify the presence of Frozen Shoulder (FS), Limited Joint Mobility (LJM), Trigger Finger, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS), and Dupuytren's Contracture. Disability was measured using the Disabilities of arm, shoulder, and hand (DASH) questionnaire. Descriptive statistics, one-way analysis of variance, Tukey's test, and Pearson's test were used to examine the prevalence, proportion and distribution of musculoskeletal disorders and disabilities among individuals with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. RESULTS 83(48.9%) participants had one or a combination of multiple musculoskeletal disorders of the upper extremity. The proportion of LJM, FS, CTS, Trigger Finger, and Dupuytren's Contracture were n = 46(27.1%); n = 43(25.3%); n = 16(9.4%); n = 8(4.7%); n = 5(2.9%) respectively. Disability scores on the DASH were 25.8 ± 14.5, 10.3 ± 11.9, and 10.6 ± 10.4 respectively for individuals with FS, LJM and Trigger Finger. DASH scores were highest in individuals with both CTS and FS, 29.8 ± 19.3. Duration of diabetes was significantly associated (r = 0 .19; P < .01) with the disability scores on DASH. CONCLUSION The prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders in people with type 2 Diabetes mellitus remains high despite advances in medical management over the last two decades. The overall prevalence of hand disorders (LJM, CTS, Dupuytren's contracture, Trigger Finger) was higher than shoulder disorders (FS), e.g. frozen shoulder. People with a diabetes that had a diagnosed upper extremity conditon had more upper extremity disability, than those with diabetes but no diagnosed hand condition, Disability was highest for frozen shoulder and lowest for Dupuytren's diagnoses. Carpal tunnel syndrome was the most disabling hand condition. People with diabetes should be screened for upper extremity diagnoses that could limit their function. Poeple with disability resulting from hand disorders was lower than the shoulder disorders. A combination of hand and shoulder disorders resulted in greater disability.

Abstract
Context: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is one of the most common diseases worldwide. Patients with DM are prone to develop multiple musculoskeletal (MSK) manifestations, which may lead to disability and an impact on patients’ quality of life. These manifestations include but not limited to, adhesive capsulitis, shoulder hand syndrome, diabetic hand syndrome, diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis, Dupuytren's contracture. Aims: The aim of this study is to assess the prevalence of MSK manifestations in diabetic patients in Saudi Arabia. Settings and Design: The study was carried out in NGHA hospital and PHC in Saudi Arabia. Methods and Materials: This is a retrospective study carried out between 2015 and 2019 where all patients with DM type II between the age of 18 and 65 and were diagnosed with MSK manifestations included in the study. Statistical Analysis Used: Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (IBM-SPSS) software (Version 23). Results: A total of 208 patients were found to have MSK manifestations. The average age of patients was 53 years old ranging from (31-63). The mean reading of A1C was 8%. A total of 34.1% were controlled and 65.9% were uncontrolled. Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) was found in 10%. Adhesive capsulitis in 2.4%. Septic arthritis in 1%. Trigger finger was found in 7.2%. Osteomyelitis was found in 0.5%. Plantar fasciitis was found in 4.8%. Osteoarthritis (OA) was found in 149 subjects (71.3%). Two subjects had ankle OA, one hand OA, nine shoulder OA, one hip arthritis. The rest had knee OA. Rotator cuff tendonitis was found in 1%. No significant correlation between age, A1c and all the MSK manifestations that were mentioned above (P value >0.05). Conclusions: MSK manifestations are common among diabetic patients. OA was the most frequently seen disorder. Physicians should be aware of the high prevalence and the huge impact on patients when treating patients with type II DM.

Abstract
Background: One of the lesser recognized complications of diabetes mellitus are musculoskeletal (MSK) complications of the upper and lower extremity. No prevalence studies have been conducted in general practice. Thus, the aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of upper extremity MSK disorders in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) in the Netherlands. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study with two different approaches, namely a representative Dutch primary care medical database study and a questionnaire study among patients with T2DM. Results: In the database study, 2669 patients with T2DM and 2669 non-diabetes patients were included. MSK disorders were observed in 16.3% of patients with T2DM compared to 11.2% of non-diabetes patients (p < 0.001, OR 1.53, 95% CI 1.31, 1.80). In the questionnaire study, 200 patients with T2DM were included who reported a lifetime prevalence of painful upper extremity body sites for at least four weeks of 67.3%. Conclusion: We found that upper extremity MSK disorders have a high prevalence in Dutch patients with T2DM presenting in general practice. The prevalence ranges from 16% based on GP registered disorders and complaints to 67% based on self-reported diagnosis and pain. Early detection and treatment of these disorders may play a role in preventing the development of chronic MSK disorders.

The worldwide prevalence of the Dupuytren disease: a comprehensive systematic review and meta-analysis. J Orthop Surg Res 2020; 15:495. [PMID: 33115483 PMCID: PMC7594412 DOI: 10.1186/s13018-020-01999-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2020] [Accepted: 10/01/2020] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The Dupuytren disease is a benign fibroproliferative disorder that leads to the formation of the collagen knots and fibres in the palmar fascia. The previous studies reveal different levels of Dupuytren’s prevalence worldwide; hence, this study uses meta-analysis to approximate the prevalence of Dupuytren globally. Methods In this study, systematic review and meta-analysis have been conducted on the previous studies focused on the prevalence of the Dupuytren disease. The search keywords were Prevalence, Prevalent, Epidemiology, Dupuytren Contracture, Dupuytren and Incidence. Subsequently, SID, MagIran, ScienceDirect, Embase, Scopus, PubMed and Web of Science databases and Google Scholar search engine were searched without a lower time limit and until June 2020. In order to analyse reliable studies, the stochastic effects model was used and the I2 index was applied to test the heterogeneity of the selected studies. Data analysis was performed within the Comprehensive Meta-Analysis Software version 2.0. Results By evaluating 85 studies (10 in Asia, 56 in Europe, 2 in Africa and 17 studies in America) with a total sample size of 6628506 individuals, the prevalence of Dupuytren disease in the world is found as 8.2% (95% CI 5.7–11.7%). The highest prevalence rate is reported in Africa with 17.2% (95% CI 13–22.3%). According to the subgroup analysis, in terms of underlying diseases, the highest prevalence was obtained in patients with type 1 diabetes with 34.1% (95% CI 25–44.6%). The results of meta-regression revealed a decreasing trend in the prevalence of Dupuytren disease by increasing the sample size and the research year (P < 0.05). Conclusion The results of this study show that the prevalence of Dupuytren disease is particularly higher in alcoholic patients with diabetes. Therefore, the officials of the World Health Organization should design measures for the prevention and treatment of this disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dupuytren's disease is a common complex disease caused by genetic and nongenetic factors. The role of many nongenetic risk factors is still unclear and debatable. This study aimed to systematically review the association between Dupuytren's disease and nongenetic risk factors. METHODS A search strategy was developed based on the Population, Exposure, Comparison, Outcomes and Study framework. A Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses-compliant literature search was conducted in MEDLINE, Embase, Scopus, Web of Science, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials from inception to November of 2018. Title and abstract and then full-text screening against eligibility criteria was performed independently by two reviewers, and consensus was achieved by a third reviewer. The Effective Public Health Practice Project and the Oxford Centre for Evidence Based Medicine tools were used to assess study quality and to evaluate the level of evidence of included studies, respectively. RESULTS Reviewers identified 4434 studies, of which 54 were included in the analysis. There was strong evidence for the association between Dupuytren's disease and advanced age, male sex, family history of Dupuytren's disease, and diabetes mellitus. Furthermore, heavy alcohol drinking, cigarette smoking, and manual work exposure showed a significant dose-response relationship. The quality of the included studies was mainly low or moderate, and most studies were level 3 or 4 on the Oxford Centre for Evidence Based Medicine scale. CONCLUSIONS The study results show a strong association between Dupuytren's disease and advanced age, male sex, family history of Dupuytren's disease, diabetes mellitus, heavy alcohol drinking, cigarette smoking, and manual work exposure. Further studies are required to explain the causal relationship of these associations.

Clin Orthop Relat Res 2020; 478:1839-1847. [PMID: 32732565 PMCID: PMC7371074 DOI: 10.1097/corr.0000000000001261] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2019] [Accepted: 03/25/2020] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Inflammation and mechanical demands play a role in the development of tendon conditions and the dysregulation of tendon healing. In patients with obesity, high levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines and a high mechanical demand promote chronic low-grade inflammation. Although controversial results have been reported, we aimed to summarize current evidence while highlighting the role of obesity in tendinopathy. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES (1) Do patients with obesity have a greater risk of tendinopathy, stratified by upper and lower extremity sites, than patients who do not have obesity? (2) Is obesity associated with a higher risk of upper and lower extremity tendon tear and ruptures? (3) Is obesity associated with an increased risk of complications after upper and lower extremity tendon surgery? METHODS We performed a systematic review by searching the PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases, combining the term "tendon" with common terms for tendinopathy and rupture such as "tendon injury OR tendinopathy OR tendon rupture" and "obese" OR "obesity." We included studies with any level of evidence published from January 2000 to July 10, 2019 in peer-reviewed journals reporting clinical results. After we removed the duplicates, there were 365 records. Two independent authors screened these records and excluded 320 based on abstract and title screening. Of the remaining 45 studies, 23 were excluded because the topic did not address the research questions (n = 19), the article was outdated (n = 3), or because there was a serious risk of bias (n = 1). Finally, we included 22 studies with 49,914 participants (5984 with obesity), 31,100 (1884 with obesity) of whom had upper-extremity tendinopathy, while 18,814 (4010 with obesity) had lower-extremity tendinopathy. Obesity was defined as a BMI ≥ 30 kg/m according to the WHO's criteria. Data were extracted and analyzed critically. Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines were applied, and the risk of bias (ROBINS tool) of the studies was assessed, as was the methodological quality (Coleman score). The assessment was performed independently by two authors. Inter-rater agreement for the assessments of the risk of bias and methodological quality were 89% and 94%, respectively. All studies were observational, and most were retrospective case-control studies. Any discrepancy was discussed and solved by consensus. The articles had a moderate risk of bias (eight articles) or a low risk of bias (fourteen articles). We excluded one article because of a serious risk of bias. The mean (range) Coleman score was 53.5 (42-74). RESULTS Obesity was associated with a greater risk of upper extremity tendinopathy (rotator cuff: odds ratio 1.25 [95% confidence interval 1.12 to 1.40]; p < 0.001; medial epicondylitis: OR 1.9 [95% CI 1.0 to 3.7]; p < 0.05) and lower-extremity tendinopathy (Achilles tendon: OR 3.81 [95% CI 2.57 to 5.63]; OR 3.77 [95% CI 2.24 to 6.34]; OR 6.56 [95% CI 3.18 to 13.55], for obesity Classes I, II and III, respectively; patellar tendon: OR 1.10 [95% CI 1.05 to 1.90]; p = 0.001; plantar fascia: OR 2.97 [95% CI 1.64 to 5.37]; p = 0.004). Obesity was associated with a greater risk of upper extremity tendon tear (rotator cuff: OR 2.35 [95% CI 1.62 to 3.40]; p < 0.001) and rupture leading to tendon surgery (rotator cuff in men: OR 3.13 [95% CI 1.29 to 7.61]; p < 0.001 and women: OR 3.51 [95% CI 1.80 to 6.85]; p < 0.001). However, no association was found between BMI and lower extremity rupture (Achilles mean BMI: 27.77 kg/m [95% CI 26.94 to 28.49] versus control: 26.66 kg/m [95% CI 26.06 to 27.27]; p = 0.047). Upper extremity complications (n = 359) after tendon repair surgery had a weighted incidence of 13.27% and 8.13% for rotator cuff surgery in patients with and without obesity, respectively. In the lower extremity (n = 21,152), the weighted incidence for Achilles tendon surgery was 11.28% and 8.6% in patients with and without obesity, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Obesity is associated with a higher risk of tendinopathy, tendon tear and rupture, and complications after tendon surgery than non-obesity. However, the high heterogeneity and observational nature of the studies highlight the need to be cautious about the results of our study. We encourage researchers to perform clinical and preclinical studies to explore pathways related to the metabolic state of this population. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level IV, prognostic study.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We investigated cross-sectional associations and whether type 2 diabetes increases the risk of musculoskeletal pain after adjusting for the presence of important comorbidities. METHODS The study employed data from the UK Biobank participants: 495,327 in cross-sectional (2006-2010) and 16,875 in longitudinal (2014-2016) analyses. Type 2 diabetes was self-reported and subsequently confirmed during an interview. Musculoskeletal pain was diagnosed by the participants' reports of back, knee, hip, or neck/shoulder pain that interfered with usual activities in the last month (recent pain), and for more than 3 months (chronic pain). RESULTS In cross-sectional adjusted logistic regression analyses, type 2 diabetes was associated with recent and chronic neck/shoulder pain [OR 1.14, 95%CI 1.10-1.18; OR 1.15, 95%CI 1.10-1.19] and hip pain [OR 1.13, 95%CI 1.08-1.17; OR 1.14 95%CI 1.09-1.19]; and with chronic knee pain [OR 1.01, 95%CI 1.01-1.01]. In longitudinal adjusted analyses, type 2 diabetes increased the risk of recent and chronic neck/shoulder pain [OR 1.39, 95%CI 1.01-1.91; OR 1.56; 95%CI 1.14-2.19]. CONCLUSION People with type 2 diabetes are more likely to report musculoskeletal pain in shoulder/neck, knee or hip. In addition, people with type 2 diabetes, particularly women, are more likely to present with a future episode of neck/shoulder pain. This study highlights the need to consider musculoskeletal screening among patients with diabetes and also serves as a stimulus for investigation of the mechanisms that explain the relationship between musculoskeletal pain and type 2 diabetes; with a view to prevention or improving future treatment.

Abstract
Aims The purpose of this study was to evaluate the in vitro effects of apocynin, an inhibitor of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase (NOX) and a downregulator of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), on high glucose-induced oxidative stress on tenocytes. Methods Tenocytes from normal Sprague-Dawley rats were cultured in both control and high-glucose conditions. Apocynin was added at cell seeding, dividing the tenocytes into four groups: the control group; regular glucose with apocynin (RG apo+); high glucose with apocynin (HG apo+); and high glucose without apocynin (HG apo–). Reactive oxygen species production, cell proliferation, apoptosis and messenger RNA (mRNA) expression of NOX1 and 4, and interleukin-6 (IL-6) were determined in vitro. Results Expression of NOX1, NOX4, and IL-6 mRNA in the HG groups was significantly higher compared with that in the RG groups, and NOX1, NOX4, and IL-6 mRNA expression in the HG apo+ group was significantly lower compared with that in the HG apo– group. Cell proliferation in the RG apo+ group was significantly higher than in the control group and was also significantly higher in the HG apo+ group than in the HG apo– group. Both the ROS accumulation and the amounts of apoptotic cells in the HG groups were greater than those in the RG groups and were significantly less in the HG apo+ group than in the HG apo– group. Conclusion Apocynin reduced ROS production and cell death via NOX inhibition in high-glucose conditions. Apocynin is therefore a potential prodrug in the treatment of diabetic tendinopathy.

Abstract
Objective
To clarify the association of thyroid disorders and primary frozen shoulder by comparing this group with controls without shoulder disease and with patients with rotator cuff tears.
Methods
We evaluated 166 patients who presented frozen shoulder with treatment in progress or already treated, which were compared with 129 patients with diagnosis of rotator cuff tears and 251 control subjects. All of the participants answered the questionnaire on the following variables: age, gender, body mass index (BMI), occupation, physical activity, presence of thyroid disorders and other comorbidities, smoking and use of alcohol.
Results
When comparing the frozen shoulder group with the control and rotator cuff groups, there is a specific association between the presence of thyroid disorders and frozen shoulder. By calculating relative risk, it is possible to state that an individual with thyropathy has 2.69 more chance of developing frozen shoulder. Also, there was an association with gender, since women with frozen shoulder exceeded significantly the risk.
Conclusions
Thyroid disorders, especially hypothyroidism and the presence of benign thyroid nodules, are risk factors significantly associated with frozen shoulder, rising the chances to 2.69 times of developing frozen shoulder.
This is the first study that uses, in addition to the control group, a second group with rotator cuff tears, so it was shown that there is a specific association of thyroid disorders and frozen shoulder, but not with shoulder disorders in general.

Abstract
Gestational diabetes Mellitus (GDM) is a complex clinical condition that promotes pelvic floor myopathy, thus predisposing sufferers to urinary incontinence (UI). GDM usually regresses after birth. Nonetheless, a GDM history is associated with higher risk of subsequently developing type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and UI. Some aspects of the pathophysiology of GDM remain unclear and the associated pathologies (outcomes) are poorly addressed, simultaneously raising public health costs and diminishing women's quality of life. Exosomes are small extracellular vesicles produced and actively secreted by cells as part of their intercellular communication system. Exosomes are heterogenous in their cargo and depending on the cell sources and environment, they can mediate both pathogenetic and therapeutic functions. With the advancement in knowledge of exosomes, new perspectives have emerged to support the mechanistic understanding, prediction/diagnosis and ultimately, treatment of the post-GMD outcomes. Here, we will review recent advances in knowledge of the role of exosomes in GDM and related areas and discuss the possibilities for translating exosomes as therapeutic agents in the GDM clinical setting.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Next to the well-known micro- and macrovascular complications, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is associated with musculoskeletal disorders of the upper extremities referred to as limited joint mobility (LJM), e.g. carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) and adhesive capsulitis. Unrecognized and untreated LJM can lead to poor quality of life and non-compliance to diabetes treatment which aggravates LJM. Despite its reported higher prevalence in international prevalence studies, examination of the upper extremities is still no part of the regular diabetes mellitus (DM) check-ups. The primary aim of this study was therefore to evaluate the awareness of Dutch GPs and nurse practitioners concerning LJM. Secondary aims were to evaluate the current management of a patient with LJM, and to assess opinions regarding the question of who should screen for LJM if this is done in the near future. METHODS An online survey was conducted among 390 general practitioners (GPs) and 245 nurse practitioners (NPs) of three diabetes care groups in The Netherlands to assess their awareness of the association between DM and LJM. RESULTS Most GPs are not aware that LJM is a DM complication, with an unawareness for specific upper extremity disorders ranging from 59 to 73%. Of the NPs, 76% is not aware either. Only 41% of GPs would advise the most optimal treatment for diabetes patient with CTS. Finally, only 25% of the GPs believe that screening for LJM should be performed during the regular diabetes check-up compared to 63% of the NPs. CONCLUSION The majority of GPs and NPs are not aware of LJM as a T2DM complication. In contrast to NPs, most GPs do not believe that screening for LJM should be performed during the regular diabetes check-up.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetes mellitus (DM) is associated with musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) and is often not clinically diagnosed and managed. There are also no systematic reviews of literature relating to the prevalence of MSDs among people with diabetes. OBJECTIVE To determine the prevalence and areas of the body affected by MSDs in diabetic patients. METHODS A literature search of the electronic databases of CINAH, PubMed, Web of Science and Google Scholar using the keywords of "MSDs and DM" as the search term was conducted. Pooled estimates were calculated using a meta-analysis of proportion. RESULTS Five thousand and eighty-eight studies were identified from the databases; 21 studies fulfilled the inclusion criteria and were included in the review. Five studies were of high quality, 13 were of moderate quality and three were of low quality. The prevalence of all types of MSDs among patients with diabetes was 58.15% (95% CI 41.4%-73.9%). The hand was the most common area of the body affected being 33.05% (95% CI 21.1-46.13) followed by the shoulder. CONCLUSIONS A high prevalence of MSDs was found among diabetic patients with the hand and shoulder being the most frequently reported areas affected. However, future studies with a larger sample and the relevant type of diabetes are required.

Abstract
Stenosing flexor tenosynovitis, more commonly known as trigger finger, is one of the most common causes of hand pain and dysfunction. Clinicians must be able to identify the disorder, know the broad range of treatment options, and counsel patients on the treatment best suited for their condition. Awareness of the economic burden each option entails is central to optimizing treatment outcomes and patient satisfaction.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION To estimate lifetime prevalence of diabetes-related upper limb and non-acquired skin manifestations in a representative type 1 diabetes (T1D) population and to identify associations between these conditions and quality of life. METHODS A questionnaire on these complications and measures of quality of life (World Health Organization-Five Well-Being Index [WHO-5]), depression, and diabetes-specific burden (Problem Areas in Diabetes [PAID] scale) was sent to all T1D patients in a Danish clinic (N = 583). RESULTS The response rate was 68.6%. Lifetime prevalence of any upper limb soft tissue lesion was 72%; prevalence of any skin lesion was 10.5%. Frozen shoulder and vitiligo were most common upper limb and skin manifestation, at a prevalence of 53 and 9.1%, respectively. Compared to patients with no skin lesion, those with at least one skin lesion had more depression (19 vs. 33%; P < 0.01) and lower WHO-5 scores. Frozen shoulder was associated with lower WHO-5 scores (P < 0.001), more depression (29 vs. 14%; P < 0.001), and a higher PAID score (P < 0.01). A diagnosis of carpal tunnel syndrome was associated with lower WHO-5 scores (P < 0.001), a higher risk of depression (29 vs. 16%; P < 0.01), and a higher PAID score (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION Upper limb soft tissue lesions and diabetes-specific non-acquired skin lesions are very common in patients with T1D and strongly associated with impaired life quality and increased risk of depression.

Abstract
Objectives: To study the frequency of multiple vascular risk factors and electrophysiological severity of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) in Saudi diabetic patients. Methods: This retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted in Neurology Department, King Fahd Hospital of University, Al-Khobar, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia from April 2017 to March 2018 and included 200 patients with CTS. Body parameters, such as blood pressure (BP), weight, height, and body mass index (BMI), along with laboratory and median nerve electrophysiological parameters, of diabetic and non-diabetic patients were compared, and a p-value<0.05 was considered significant. Results: Frequency of hypertension (HTN) and obesity was significantly higher in diabetic patients (p<0.05). Mean median nerve sensory amplitude (MNSA) was lower in diabetic patients (p<0.05).Non-recordable nerves, as well as bilateral and extremely severe CTS (p<0.05), were more frequently seen in diabetic patients. Age, BMI, systolic BP, low serum high density lipoprotein (HDL), high triglycerides, high fasting blood sugar, and high glycated hemoglobin (Hba1c) levels, known to affect the electrophysiological severity of CTS, had a statistically significant association with diabetes. Conclusion: Diabetes mellitus (DM) and obesity are the most commonly identified risk factors of CTS. Dyslipidemia, HTN and obesity are more frequently seen in diabetic patients with CTS. These concurrent risk factors are confounding the electrophysiological severity of CTS in these patients. Further larger-scale studies with the control of confounding factors are recommended.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The objectives of the study were to analyze the clinical characteristic of diabetic cheiroarthropathy (DCA) in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM), type 2 DM, and prediabetes and to evaluate the frequency of DCA among groups. METHOD The cross-sectional study was conducted at the Division of Endocrinology and Metabolism outpatient clinic over a 14-month period. A total of 239 patients (160 female, 79 male), who had type 1 DM, type 2 DM, and prediabetes, were enrolled. The demographics, clinical variables, and laboratory outcomes were recorded. Diabetic cheiroarthropathy was defined according to physical examination. The functional disability of patients with DCA was assessed by the self-administered questionnaire (disabilities of the arm, shoulder and hand-DASH). RESULTS Diabetic cheiroarthropathy was determined in 35.1% of all patients. The frequency of DCA was higher in patients with prediabetes (x2 = 0.009, post hoc power = 0.794). According to the logistic regression analysis, prediabetes (OR = 4.52, 95% CI 2.16-9.47, p < 0.001), presence of polyneuropathy (OR = 3.82, 95% CI 1.61-9.07, p = 0.002), and fasting glucose level (OR = 1.01, 95% CI 1.00-1.01, p = 0.004) found as the most effective risk factors in determining DCA. DASH disability scores were significantly higher in prediabetic patients than that in type 2 DM group (p = 0.021). CONCLUSION High frequency of DCA and impaired hand function are observed in prediabetic patients. Musculoskeletal manifestations can emerge as an early sign of diabetic status. Also, people who suffer from hand involvement should be examined for diabetes along with rheumatologic diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The absence of a single, identifiable traumatic cause has been traditionally used as a definition for a causative factor of overuse injury. Excessive loading, insufficient recovery, and underpreparedness can increase injury risk by exposing athletes to relatively large changes in load. The musculoskeletal system, if subjected to excessive stress, can suffer from various types of overuse injuries which may affect the bone, muscles, tendons, and ligaments. METHODS We performed a search (up to March 2018) in the PubMed and Scopus electronic databases to identify the available scientific articles about the pathophysiology and the incidence of overuse sport injuries. For the purposes of our review, we used several combinations of the following keywords: overuse, injury, tendon, tendinopathy, stress fracture, stress reaction, and juvenile osteochondritis dissecans. RESULTS Overuse tendinopathy induces in the tendon pain and swelling with associated decreased tolerance to exercise and various types of tendon degeneration. Poor training technique and a variety of risk factors may predispose athletes to stress reactions that may be interpreted as possible precursors of stress fractures. A frequent cause of pain in adolescents is juvenile osteochondritis dissecans (JOCD), which is characterized by delamination and localized necrosis of the subchondral bone, with or without the involvement of articular cartilage. The purpose of this compressive review is to give an overview of overuse injuries in sport by describing the theoretical foundations of these conditions that may predispose to the development of tendinopathy, stress fractures, stress reactions, and juvenile osteochondritis dissecans and the implication that these pathologies may have in their management. CONCLUSIONS Further research is required to improve our knowledge on tendon and bone healing, enabling specific treatment strategies to be developed for the management of overuse injuries.

Abstract
BACKGROUND People with diabetes are at high risk for shoulder pain, limited joint mobility, and adhesive capsulitis. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of a shoulder movement intervention (ShoMo) compared to a wellness intervention on the primary outcomes of active shoulder flexion and reported Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI) measured after intervention and 9 months later. DESIGN The design was a prospective, randomized, controlled clinical trial. SETTING The setting was a research center at an academic medical center. PARTICIPANTS Fifty-two participants with type 2 diabetes and shoulder pain or limited motion were randomized to a group receiving ShoMo (N = 27; mean age = 59.3; SD = 7.0) or a group receiving wellness activities (N = 25; mean age = 57.9; SD = 7.7). INTERVENTION The ShoMo group received instruction in a progressive, active shoulder movement program. The wellness group received instruction in diabetes management. MEASUREMENTS Measurements were made at baseline, after 3 months of intervention, and at 6, 9, and 12 months after baseline. RESULTS After intervention, the ShoMo group had a 7.2-degree increase in active shoulder flexion compared with the wellness group (95% CI = 0.9-13.5°), but there was no difference at subsequent follow-ups. The ShoMo group showed a 12.7-point improvement in the SPADI score compared to the wellness group after intervention (95% CI = 1.1-24.3), which remained better than the wellness group 9 months later. LIMITATIONS The number of participants and duration of follow-up were inadequate to determine if intervention can help to prevent future severe shoulder problems. CONCLUSIONS A progressive shoulder movement program can have meaningful effects on active motion and symptoms in people with type 2 diabetes and mild-to-moderate shoulder symptoms, with symptom improvement lasting at least 9 months.

Abstract
Supplemental Digital Content is available in the text. Background: The role of diabetes mellitus, liver disease, and epilepsy as risk factors for Dupuytren disease remains unclear. In this systematic review and meta-analysis, the strength and consistency of these associations were examined. Methods: The MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Web of Science databases were searched for articles reporting an association between Dupuytren disease and diabetes mellitus, liver disease, and epilepsy published before September 26, 2016. The frequencies of Dupuytren disease and diabetes mellitus, liver disease, and epilepsy were extracted, as was information on potential confounders. Generalized linear mixed models were applied to estimate pooled odds ratios, adjusted for confounders. Heterogeneity between studies was quantified using an intraclass correlation coefficient and was accounted for by a random effect for study. Results: One thousand two hundred sixty unique studies were identified, of which 32 were used in the meta-analyses. An association between Dupuytren disease and diabetes mellitus was observed (OR, 3.06; 95 percent CI, 2.69 to 3.48, adjusted for age), which was stronger for type 1 diabetes mellitus than for type 2 diabetes mellitus but was not statistically significant (p = 0.24). An association between Dupuytren disease and liver disease was observed (OR, 2.92; 95 percent CI, 2.08 to 4.12, adjusted for sex). Dupuytren disease and epilepsy were associated, yielding an OR of 2.80 (95 percent CI, 2.49 to 3.15). Heterogeneity between studies was moderate to low. Conclusions: These findings demonstrate an association between Dupuytren disease and diabetes mellitus, liver disease, and epilepsy. Prospective, longitudinal studies are needed to elucidate the pathways causing these associations.

Abstract
AIMS The aim of this study was to investigate the putative link between dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor (DPP-4i) use and the risk of fracture in patients with type 2 diabetes. METHODS This propensity-score-matched population-based cohort study was performed between 2009 and 2013 on patients with type 2 diabetes who were stable metformin users. A total of 3996 patients with type 2 diabetes used DPP-4i as a second-line antidiabetic drug. The same number of matched non-DPP-4i users were followed up until fracture occurrence, health insurance policy termination, or the end of 2013. The incidence rates of overall and cause-specific fractures were estimated based on the Poisson assumption. A multiple Cox proportional hazard model was used to estimate the covariate-adjusted hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) to determine the association between DPP-4i use and overall and cause-specific fractures stratified by age and sex. RESULTS Over a maximum follow-up period of 5 years, 340 DPP-4i users and 419 non-DPP-4i users were newly diagnosed with fractures, yielding incidence rates of 28.03 and 32.04 per 1000 people per year, respectively. The Cox proportional hazard model revealed that DPP-4i use significantly reduced the risk of all-cause fractures and upper extremity fractures, with adjusted HRs of 0.86 (95% CI: 0.74-0.99) and 0.75 (95% CI: 0.59-0.95), respectively. The aforementioned associations of DDP-4i use with fracture were sustained across sex and age stratifications. CONCLUSIONS The results of this study supported the premise that DPP-4i usage is associated with a reduced risk of all-cause fractures and upper extremity fractures in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
Introduction A variety of musculoskeletal disorders (MS) have been associated with diabetes mellitus (DM). This study aimed at assessing the prevalence and associated factors of MS disorders in Moroccan diabetic patients. Methods A cross-sectional study enrolled consecutive patients with DM. We recorded demographic features of patients and characteristics of DM. MS disorders and vascular complications were assessed by clinical examinations and investigations. Associated factors of MS disorders were assessed by univariate and multivariate analyses. Result 376 subjects were included; 84.6% had type 2 DM. The participants' median age was 54 years [45-62]; 41% had one or more vascular complications. 34.4% had one or more MS disorders. Osteoarthritis was present in 19.4% of patients. Hand disorders were seen in 14.4%. Shoulder capsulitis was present in 12.5%. Long duration of diabetes and dyslipidemia were associated with increased prevalence of hand abnormalities (P = 0.017; P = 0.019, respectively). Age and dyslipidemia were associated with shoulder capsulitis (P = 0.019; P = 0.047, respectively). Female gender, overweight, and nephropathy were associated with increased odds of osteoarthritis (P = 0.009, P = 0.004, and P = 0.032, respectively). Conclusion MS disorders are frequent in this population and associated with various factors. HbA1c level does not appear to be associated with development of MS disorders.

Abstract
Background Although a common shoulder disease, there are no accepted classification criteria for frozen shoulder (FS). This study therefore aimed to evaluate the accuracy of the conventionally used FS classification system. Methods Primary FS patients (n=168) who visited our clinic from January 2010 to July 2015 were included in the study. After confirming restrictions of the glenohumeral joint motion and absence of history of systemic disease, trauma, shoulder surgery, shoulder muscle weakness, or specific x-ray abnormalities, the Zuckerman and Rokito’s classification was employed for diagnosing primary FS. Following clinical diagnosis, each patient underwent a shoulder magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and blood tests (lipid profile, glucose, hemoglobin A1c, and thyroid function). Based on the results of the blood tests and MRIs, the patients were reclassified, using the criteria proposed by Zuckerman and Rokito. Results New diagnoses were ascertained including blood test results (16 patients with diabetes, 43 with thyroid abnormalities, and 149 with dyslipidemia), and MRI revealed intra-articular lesions in 81 patients (48.2%). After re-categorization based on the above findings, only 5 patients (3.0%) were classified having primary FS. The remaining 163 patients (97.0%) had either undiagnosed systemic or intrinsic abnormalities (89 patients), whereas 74 patients had both. Conclusions These findings demonstrate that most patients clinically diagnosed with primary FS had undiagnosed systemic abnormalities and/or intra-articular pathologies. Therefore, a modification of the Zuckerman and Rokito’s classification system for FS may be required to include the frequent combinations, rather than having a separate representation of systemic abnormalities and intrinsic causes.

Abstract
Background and aim Musculoskeletal disease, that is recognized in diabetes and diabetes mellitus (DM) has shown a higher prevalence of chronic musculoskeletal complications. This study aimed at assessing the frequency of upper limb musculoskeletal disorders among patients with diabetes type II with normal cases in Mashhad, Iran. Methods A cross-section of 100 patients with upper limb musculoskeletal disorders were enrolled in this study. The patients were examined by a unique physician considering carpal tunnel syndrome disorder, trigger finger, adhesive capsulitis, and Dupuytren's contracture at Ghaem hospital, Mashhad, Iran in 2015. All collected data were recorded by using SPSS version 21 and were analyzed through independent-samples t-test for comparing changes, and Chi-square. Results In this study, the mean age was 51.7±8.7 years old. Gender frequency was 114 (57%) male, and 86 (43%) female. There was no significant difference between groups in cases of gender frequency and mean of age (p>0.05). In evaluation of association between the two groups, there was significant difference for adhesive capsulitis, (p=0.04). Chi-square test showed significant association for age and adhesive capsulitis between the two groups, (p=0.040); but no other diabetes-related disorders, (p<0.05). Conclusion The results of this study showed that in patients with diabetes mellitus and musculoskeletal complications such as upper limb musculoskeletal abnormalities, it will lead to an increase in skeletal muscle effects in DM patients. It is recommended that musculoskeletal examination is done periodically in DM patients for identification of these disorders and necessary actions are carried out for prevention of the disorders as soon as possible.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study compared the hand function of children between the ages of 8 and 12 years with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) with that of children without diabetes. METHODS The Modified Jebsen-Taylor Hand Function Test and the Purdue Pegboard Test were used to assess hand function. The Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory 4.0 was used for evaluating health-related quality of life. RESULTS Duration of writing was found to be significantly longer on the dominant side of the T1DM group compared with the children without T1DM. The durations of card turning, moving large, light objects, and large, heavy objects on the nondominant side of the T1DM group were also found to be significantly longer than those in the children without T1DM. The total scale score of health-related quality of life was significantly lower in the T1DM group compared with the children without T1DM. CONCLUSIONS T1DM affects hand function, particularly the dominant side for writing and nondominant side for card turning and moving large objects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Population-based data for diabetic hand syndrome (DHS) are limited. The aim of the present epidemiological study was to estimate the overall and cause-specific prevalence and rate ratio (RR) of DHS in patients with diabetes. METHODS The present study was a cross-sectional study based on a random sample of 57 093 diabetics and matched controls, both identified from Taiwan National Health Insurance claims in 2010. The DHS analyzed in the present study included carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), stenosing flexor tenosynovitis (SFT), limited joint mobility (LJM), and Dupuytren's disease (DD). RESULTS The prevalence of overall DHS was estimated at 2472 per 105 for the diabetics, compared with 1641 per 105 for the controls, representing a prevalence RR of 1.51 (95 % confidence interval [CI] 1.39-1.64). Stratified analyses further revealed that the significantly increased prevalence of overall DHS was more evident in females than males (1.59 vs 1.36) and was only noted in diabetics aged ≥35 years. Cause-specific analysis suggested that patients with diabetes had the highest prevalence of CTS (1244 per 105 ), followed by SFT (1209 per 105 ), LJM (39 per 105 ), and DD (6 per 105 ). In addition, diabetes was only significantly associated with CTS (RR 1.34; 95 % CI 1.20-1.51) and SFT (1.74; 95 % CI 1.54-1.97). CONCLUSION The prevalence of overall and certain cause-specific DHS was significantly elevated in patients with diabetes in Taiwan.

Relationship between limited joint mobility of the hand and diabetic foot risk in patients with type 2 diabetes. J Diabetes 2017; 9:628-633. [PMID: 27531043 DOI: 10.1111/1753-0407.12460] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/15/2016] [Revised: 07/22/2016] [Accepted: 08/14/2016] [Indexed: 12/30/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Foot ulceration is a serious problem for patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D), and the early detection of risks for this condition is important to prevent complications. The present cross-sectional study in T2D patients determined the relationship between limited joint mobility (LJM) of the hand and diabetic foot risk classified using the criteria of the International Working Group on the Diabetic Foot (IWGDF). METHODS Relationships between LJM of the hand and foot risk according to IWGDF category, HbA1c, age, body mass index, blood pressure, estimated glomerular filtration (eGFR), and diabetic complications (including diabetic peripheral neuropathy [DPN] and peripheral arterial disease [PAD]) were evaluated in 528 consecutive T2D patients. Poor glycemic control was defined as HbA1c ≥ 7%. RESULTS Patients with LJM of the hand were older and had a longer duration of diabetes, a higher prevalence of diabetic complications, including DPN and PAD, and a higher IWDGF category (all P < 0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that the foot risk assessed with IWDGF category was correlated with age (odds ratio [OR] 1.04; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.01-1.06; P = 0.001), poor glycemic control (OR 1.66; 95% CI 1.00-2.77; P = 0.04), eGFR (OR 0.98; 95% CI 0.97-0.99; P = 0.02), and the presence of LJM of the hand (OR 3.86; 95% CI 2.21-6.86; P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The results demonstrate a correlation between LJM of the hand and foot risk. Diagnosis of diabetic hand is simple and non-invasive, and is thus a useful method for assessing the risk of diabetic foot in T2D patients.

Abstract
This is the first large longitudinal cohort study to investigate the putative association of severe joint pain (SJP) with dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor (DPP4i) use in patients with type 2 diabetes. The propensity score-matched population-based cohort study was performed between 2009 and 2013 in a group of type 2 diabetes patients with stable metformin use. In total, 4743 patients with type 2 diabetes used a DPP4i as the second-line antidiabetic drug (ie, DPP4i users), and the same number of matched non-DPP4i users was selected. The 2 study groups were followed up until SJP diagnosis (International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Reversion, Clinical Modification code 719.4), health insurance policy termination, or the end of 2013. The incidence rate of SJP was estimated under the Poisson assumption. Multiple Cox proportional hazard model was used to estimate the covariate-adjusted hazard ratio and 95% CI of SJP in association with DPP4i use. Over a maximum follow-up of 5 years, 679 DPP4i users and 767 non-DPP4i users were newly diagnosed with SJP, representing incidence rates of 47.20 and 50.66 per 1000 person-years, respectively. Cox proportional hazard model indicated that DPP4i use slightly but nonsignificantly reduced the risk of SJP (adjusted hazard ratio: 0.92 [95% CI: 0.83-1.02]). Such null results were also observed among all age and sex stratifications and in a sensitivity analysis using all nonspecific arthropathies as the study endpoint. This study provides no support for the putative risk of SJP related to DPP4i use in type 2 diabetes patients during a maximum follow-up of 5 years.

Abstract
Chronic tendinopathy is a frequent and disabling musculo-skeletal problem affecting the athletic and general populations. The affected tendon is presented with local tenderness, swelling, and pain which restrict the activity of the individual. Tendon degeneration reduces the mechanical strength and predisposes it to rupture. The pathogenic mechanisms of chronic tendinopathy are not fully understood and several major non-mutually exclusive hypotheses including activation of the hypoxia-apoptosis-pro-inflammatory cytokines cascade, neurovascular ingrowth, increased production of neuromediators, and erroneous stem cell differentiation have been proposed. Many intrinsic and extrinsic risk/causative factors can predispose to the development of tendinopathy. Among them, diabetes mellitus is an important risk/causative factor. This review aims to appraise the current literature on the epidemiology and pathology of tendinopathy in diabetic patients. Systematic reviews were done to summarize the literature on (a) the association between diabetes mellitus and tendinopathy/tendon tears, (b) the pathological changes in tendon under diabetic or hyperglycemic conditions, and (c) the effects of diabetes mellitus or hyperglycemia on the outcomes of tendon healing. The potential mechanisms of diabetes mellitus in causing and exacerbating tendinopathy with reference to the major non-mutually exclusive hypotheses of the pathogenic mechanisms of chronic tendinopathy as reported in the literature are also discussed. Potential strategies for the management of tendinopathy in diabetic patients are presented.

Diabetes mellitus and hyperlipidaemia as risk factors for frequent pain in the back, neck and/or shoulders/arms among adults in Stockholm 2006 to 2010 - Results from the Stockholm Public Health Cohort. Scand J Pain 2016; 15:1-7. [PMID: 28850330 DOI: 10.1016/j.sjpain.2016.11.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/26/2016] [Revised: 10/28/2016] [Accepted: 11/13/2016] [Indexed: 10/20/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Frequent back, neck and/or shoulder pain (BNSP) are common conditions which pose high burden for the society. Results from previous studies suggest that diabetes and hyperlipidaemia may be associated with a higher risk of getting such conditions, but there is in general, few studies based on longitudinal designs. The aim of this study was therefore to compare the risk of developing frequent BNSP in men and women with and without diabetes and/or hyperlipidaemia. METHODS A longitudinal study based on the Stockholm Public Health Cohort was conducted based on subjects aged 45-84, who were free from pain at the mentioned sites in 2006 and followed up until 2010. The data in the current study is based on questionnaires, except socioeconomic status which was derived from Statistics Sweden. The exposure diabetes and hyperlipidaemia was self-reported and, a categorical variable was created; without any of the conditions, with hyperlipidaemia only, with diabetes only and with both conditions. The outcome frequent BNSP was defined using the following questions in the questionnaire in 2010: "During the past 6months, have you had pain in the neck or upper part of the back?", "During the past 6months, have you had pain in the lower back?", and "During the past 6months, have you had pain in the shoulders/arms?". All questions had three possible response options: no; yes, a couple of days per month or less often and; yes, a couple of days per week or more often. Those who reported weekly pain to at least one of these questions were considered to having frequent BNSP. Binomial regressions were run to calculate the crude and adjusted risk ratio (RR) in men and women separately. Additional analysis was performed in order to control for potential bias derived from individuals lost to follow-up. RESULTS A total of 10,044 subjects fulfilled the criteria to be included in the study. The mean age of the sample was 60years and evenly distributed by sex. After adjusting for age, body mass index, physical activity, high blood pressure and socioeconomic status, the RR for frequent BNSP among men with diabetes was 1.64 (95% CI: 1.23-2.18) and 1.19 (95% CI: 0.98-1.44) for hyperlipidaemia compared to men with neither diabetes nor hyperlipidaemia. Among women the corresponding RRs were 0.92 (95% CI: 0.60-1.14) and 1.23 (95% CI: 1.03-1.46). Having both diabetes and hyperlipidaemia at baseline was not associated with increased risk of frequent BNSP. Diabetes and hyperlipidaemia seems to be associated with an increased risk for frequent BNSP and the risk may differ between men and women. Behaviours and/or biological underlying mechanisms may explain the results. CONCLUSIONS This study suggests that metabolic diseases such as diabetes and hyperlipidaemia may have an impact on the pathophysiology of frequent BNSP and thus, contributes to the knowledge in musculoskeletal health. Furthermore, it confirms that men and women may differ in terms of risk factors for BNSP. IMPLICATIONS Health professionals should contemplate the results from this study when planning primary prevention strategies.
