Abstract
Aging is an inevitable biological process that significantly impacts human health, leading to a decline in cellular function and an increase in cellular damage. This study elucidates the burgeoning potential of antiaging pharmaceuticals in mitigating the thriving burden of chronic conditions linked to advancing age. It underscores the pivotal role of these pharmacotherapeutic agents in fostering longevity free from debilitating age-related afflictions, notably cardiovascular disorders, neoplastic processes, and neurodegenerative pathologies. While commendable strides have been made evident in preclinical models, it is crucial to thoroughly investigate their effectiveness and safety in human groups. In addition, ethical concerns about fair access, societal impacts, and careful resource distribution are significant in discussions about developing and using antiaging medications. By approaching the development and utilization of antiaging medications with diligence and foresight, we can strive toward a future where individuals can enjoy extended lifespans free from the debilitating effects of age-related ailments.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is recognized as a serious public health concern with a considerable impact on human life, long-term health expenditures, and substantial health losses. In this context, the use of dietary polyphenols to prevent and manage T2DM is widely documented. These dietary compounds exert their beneficial effects through several actions, including the protection of pancreatic islet β-cell, the antioxidant capacities of these molecules, their effects on insulin secretion and actions, the regulation of intestinal microbiota, and their contribution to ameliorate diabetic complications, particularly those of vascular origin. In the present review, we intend to highlight these multifaceted actions and the molecular mechanisms by which these plant-derived secondary metabolites exert their beneficial effects on type 2 diabetes patients.

Abstract
(Poly)phenols are plant secondary metabolites widely abundant in plant foods and beverages comprising a very large number of compounds with diverse structure and biological activities. Accumulating evidence indicates that these compounds exert beneficial effects against cardiometabolic diseases, and this review will provide a summary of current knowledge in this area. Epidemiological and clinical data collectively suggest that intake of flavonoids reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD), with the evidence being particularly strong for the flavan-3-ol subclass. However, to provide adequate dietary recommendations, a better understanding of their estimated content in foods and intake among the general public is needed. Regarding mechanisms of action, we now know that it is unlikely that (poly)phenols act as direct antioxidants in vivo, as it was hypothesised for decades with the popularity of in vitro antioxidant capacity assays. One of the reasons is that upon ingestion, (poly)phenols are extensively metabolised into a wide array of circulating metabolites with different bioactivities than their precursors. Well-conducted in vitro and in vivo studies and human nutrigenomic analysis have revealed new molecular targets that may be underlying the health benefits of (poly)phenols, such as the nitric oxide pathway. Recently, a bi-directional relationship was established between (poly)phenols and the gut microbiota, suggesting that individual gut microbial metabolising capacity may be a key factor explaining the variability in the cardiometabolic response to (poly)phenols. Future research is needed to elucidate which are the key factors affecting such capacity, and whether it can be modulated, along with the mechanisms of action.

Comprehensive Approach to Medical Nutrition Therapy in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: From Diet to Bioactive Compounds. Antioxidants (Basel) 2023; 12:904. [PMID: 37107279 PMCID: PMC10135374 DOI: 10.3390/antiox12040904] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/23/2022] [Revised: 03/29/2023] [Accepted: 03/30/2023] [Indexed: 04/29/2023] Open
Abstract
In the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), diet plays a key role. Individualized medical nutritional therapy, as part of lifestyle optimization, is one of the cornerstones for the management of T2DM and has been shown to improve metabolic outcomes. This paper discusses major aspects of the nutritional intervention (including macro- and micronutrients, nutraceuticals, and supplements), with key practical advice. Various eating patterns, such as the Mediterranean-style, low-carbohydrate, vegetarian or plant-based diets, as well as healthy eating plans with caloric deficits have been proven to have beneficial effects for patients with T2DM. So far, the evidence does not support a specific macronutrient distribution and meal plans should be individualized. Reducing the overall carbohydrate intake and replacing high glycemic index (GI) foods with low GI foods have been shown as valid options for patients with T2DM to improve glycemic control. Additionally, evidence supports the current recommendation to reduce the intake of free sugars to less than 10% of total energy intake, since their excessive intake promotes weight gain. The quality of fats seems to be rather important and the substitution of saturated and trans fatty acids with foods rich in monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats lowers cardiovascular risk and improves glucose metabolism. There is no benefit of supplementation with antioxidants, such as carotene, vitamins E and C, or other micronutrients, due to the lack of consistent evidence showing efficacy and long-term safety. Some studies suggest possible beneficial metabolic effects of nutraceuticals in patients with T2DM, but more evidence about their efficacy and safety is still needed.

Potential of Polyphenols for Improving Sleep: A Preliminary Results from Review of Human Clinical Trials and Mechanistic Insights. Nutrients 2023; 15:nu15051257. [PMID: 36904255 PMCID: PMC10005154 DOI: 10.3390/nu15051257] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/14/2023] [Revised: 02/21/2023] [Accepted: 03/01/2023] [Indexed: 03/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Global epidemiologic evidence supports an interrelationship between sleep disorders and fruits and vegetable ingestion. Polyphenols, a broad group of plant substances, are associated with several biologic processes, including oxidative stress and signaling pathways that regulate the expression of genes promoting an anti-inflammatory environment. Understanding whether and how polyphenol intake is related to sleep may provide avenues to improve sleep and contribute to delaying or preventing the development of chronic disease. This review aims to assess the public health implications of the association between polyphenol intake and sleep and to inform future research. The effects of polyphenol intake, including chlorogenic acid, resveratrol, rosmarinic acid, and catechins, on sleep quality and quantity are discussed to identify polyphenol molecules that may improve sleep. Although some animal studies have investigated the mechanisms underlying the effects of polyphenols on sleep, the paucity of trials, especially randomized controlled trials, does not allow for conducting a meta-analysis to reach clear conclusions about the relationships among these studies to support the sleep-improving effects of polyphenols.

Abstract
Advances in cystic fibrosis (CF) care have significantly improved the quality of life and life expectancy of patients. Nutritional therapy based on a high-calorie, high-fat diet, antibiotics, as well as new therapies focused on CFTR modulators change the natural course of the disease. They do so by improving pulmonary function and growing BMI. However, the increased weight of such patients can lead to unwanted long-term cardiovascular effects. People with CF (pwCF) experience several cardiovascular risk factors. Such factors include a high-fat diet and increased dietary intake, altered lipid metabolism, a decrease in the level of fat-soluble antioxidants, heightened systemic inflammation, therapeutic interventions, and diabetes mellitus. PwCF must pay special attention to food and eating habits in order to maintain a nutritional status that is as close as possible to the proper physiological one. They also have to benefit from appropriate nutritional counseling, which is essential in the evolution and prognosis of the disease. Growing evidence collected in the last years shows that many bioactive food components, such as phytochemicals, polyunsaturated fatty acids, and antioxidants have favorable effects in the management of CF. An important positive effect is cardiovascular prevention. The possibility of preventing/reducing cardiovascular risk in CF patients enhances both quality of life and life expectancy in the long run.

Front Cardiovasc Med 2022; 9:1041044. [PMID: 36505359 PMCID: PMC9727304 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2022.1041044] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/10/2022] [Accepted: 10/24/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of dorzagliatin in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) by using meta-analysis and trial sequential analysis (TSA). Method Search for clinical trials of dorzagliatin for T2DM in eight databases, with a time limit of build to July 2022. The included studies that met the requirements were carried out for meta-analysis and TSA. Results In terms of efficacy endpoints, meta-analysis showed that dorzagliatin decreased glycated hemoglobin A1c(HbA1c) [mean difference (MD) -0.65%, 95% confidence interval (CI) -0.76 ~ -0.54, P < 0.00001], fasting plasma glucose (FPG) (MD -9.22 mg/dL, 95% CI -9.99 ~ -8.44, P < 0.00001), 2 h postprandial glucose (2h-PPG) (MD -48.70 mg/dL, 95% CI -55.45 ~ -41.96, P < 0.00001), homeostasis model assessment 2 of insulin resistance (HOMA2-IR) (MD -0.07, 95% CI -0.14 ~ -0.01, P = 0.03) and increased homeostasis model assessment 2 of ß-cells function (HOMA2-β) (MD 2.69, 95% CI 1.06 ~ 4.31, P = 0.001) compared with placebo. And TSA revealed that the benefits observed for the current information set were conclusive, except for HOMA2-IR. In comparison with placebo, dorzagliatin increased triglyceride(TG) (MD 0.43 mmol/L, 95% CI 0.30 ~ 0.56, P < 0.00001), total cholesterol (TC) (MD 0.13 mmol/L, 95% CI 0.05 ~ 0.21, P = 0.001), body weight (MD 0.38 kg, 95% CI 0.12-0.63, P = 0.004) and body mass index (BMI) (MD 0.14 kg/m2, 95% CI 0.05-0.24, P = 0.003), while low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) were comparable. And TSA demonstrated that TG, TC, body weight, and BMI were conclusive. In terms of safety endpoints, dorzagliatin increased total adverse events (AEs) [risk ratio (RR) 1.56, 95% CI 1.06 ~ 2.30, P = 0.03], while serious AEs, hyperlipidemia, and hypoglycaemia were all comparable. And TSA indicated that the results need to be confirmed by additional studies. Harbord regression showed no publication bias. Conclusion Dorzagliatin was effective in lowering glycemia, reducing insulin resistance and improving islet ß-cells function without affecting blood pressure, LDL-C, and HDL-C. Although dorzagliatin caused a mild increase in TG and TC, it did not increase the incidence of hyperlipidemia, and the small increases in body weight and BMI were not clinically significant enough. In terms of safety, the total AEs caused by dorzagliatin may be a cumulative effect of single AEs, with no drug-related adverse event being reported at a higher incidence than placebo alone. Dorzagliatin's serious AEs, hyperlipidemia, and hypoglycemia are comparable to that of placebo, and dorzagliatin has a good safety profile.

Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:2294. [PMID: 36421480 PMCID: PMC9687635 DOI: 10.3390/antiox11112294] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2022] [Revised: 11/09/2022] [Accepted: 11/15/2022] [Indexed: 08/13/2023] Open
Abstract
Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) and preeclampsia (PE) affects 6-25% of pregnancies and are characterized by an imbalance in natural prooxidant/antioxidant mechanisms. Due to their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, polyphenols consumption during the pregnancy might exert positive effects by preventing GDM and PE development. However, this association remains inconclusive. This systematic review and metanalysis is aimed to analyze the association between polyphenol-rich food consumption during pregnancy and the risk of GDM and PE. A systematic search in MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Web of Science (Clarivate Analytics, London, United Kingdom) for articles dated between 1 January 1980 and July 2022 was undertaken to identify randomized controlled trials and observational studies evaluating polyphenol-rich food consumption and the risk of GDM and PE. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale was used to evaluate the quality of these included studies. Twelve studies were included, of which eight articles evaluated GDM and four studied PE. A total of 3785 women presented with GDM (2.33%). No association between polyphenol consumption and GDM was found (ES = 0.85, 95% CI 0.71-1.01). When total polyphenol intake was considered, a lower likelihood to develop GDM was noted (ES = 0.78, 95% CI 0.69-0.89). Furthermore, polyphenol consumption was not associated with PE development (ES = 0.90, 95% CI 0.57-1.41). In conclusion, for both outcomes, pooled analyses showed no association with polyphenol-rich food consumption during pregnancy. Therefore, association of polyphenol intake with a decreased risk of GDM and PE remains inconclusive.

Abstract
In this paper, we assess the cost-effectiveness of 1 g daily of carnosine (an over the counter supplement) in addition to standard care for the management of type 2 diabetes and compare it to standard care alone. Dynamic multistate life table models were constructed in order to estimate both clinical outcomes and costs of Australians aged 18 years and above with and without type 2 diabetes over a ten-year period, 2020 to 2029. The dynamic nature of the model allowed for population change over time (migration and deaths) and accounted for the development of new cases of diabetes. The three health states were 'Alive without type 2 diabetes', 'Alive with type 2 diabetes' and 'Dead'. Transition probabilities, costs, and utilities were obtained from published sources. The main outcome of interest was the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) in terms of cost per year of life saved (YoLS) and cost per quality-adjusted life year (QALY) gained. Over the ten-year period, the addition of carnosine to standard care treatment resulted in ICERs (discounted) of AUD 34,836 per YoLS and AUD 43,270 per QALY gained. Assuming the commonly accepted willingness to pay threshold of AUD 50,000 per QALY gained, supplemental dietary carnosine may be a cost-effective treatment option for people with type 2 diabetes in Australia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Previous studies on the effects of resveratrol on metabolic indicators reported contradictory findings, and these indicators have not been frequently studied in patients with type 2 diabetes. In this study, we aimed to examine the effects of resveratrol on metabolic indicators in a specific group of people with type 2 diabetes using the most recent literature. METHODS We used RevMan 5.4 and Stata 14.0 software to identify randomized controlled studies on the impact of resveratrol on metabolic indicators in patients with type 2 diabetes using relevant search terms and keywords such as "resveratrol" and "type 2 diabetes" in the China National Knowledge Infrastructure, PubMed, Cochrane, and Embase. Data were expressed as the weighted mean difference (WMD) and 95% confidence interval (CI). RESULTS This meta-analysis included 19 studies involving 1151 patients with type 2 diabetes, including 584 patients treated with resveratrol and 567 patients who received placebo. Compared with the control data, large doses of resveratrol (≥1000 mg) reduced fasting blood glucose levels (WMD: -18.76 mg/dL, 95% CI: -23.43, -14.09; P < 0.00001). Additionally, resveratrol reduced systolic blood pressure (WMD: -7.97 mmHg, 95% CI: -10.63, -5.31; P < 0.00001) and diastolic blood pressure (WMD: -3.55 mmHg, 95% CI: -5.18, -1.93; P < 0.00001) in patients with type 2 diabetes but did not improve waist circumference (WMD: 0.05 cm, 95% CI: -1.77, 1.88; P=0.95), triglyceride levels (WMD: -4.49 mg/dL, 95% CI: -24.23, 15.25; P=0.66), or high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels (WMD: -1.05 mg/dL, 95% CI: -2.44, 0.33; P=0.14) in patients with type 2 diabetes. CONCLUSION This systematic review and meta-analysis updated the most recent literature and provided new evidence, proving that resveratrol treatment can reduce systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure. High-dose resveratrol can reduce fasting blood glucose in patients with type 2 diabetes, although it has no effect on waist circumference, triglyceride, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol.
