[PMID: 38104019 DOI: 10.1016/j.sapharm.2023.11.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2023] [Revised: 11/14/2023] [Accepted: 11/29/2023] [Indexed: 12/19/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Adherence to insulin therapy is crucial to achieving good glycemic control for patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) or type 2 diabetes (T2D). A comprehensive estimation of adherence to insulin therapy in patients with diabetes is currently lacking. OBJECTIVE To explore the prevalence of adherence to insulin therapy in patients with both T1D and T2D. METHODS A systematic search was performed using the following databases: PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane CENTRAL, and ProQuest Dissertation and Theses from the inception of each database to August 2023. Cross-sectional studies were included if they met the following criteria: (1) conducted in patients with T1D or T2D; (2) reported adherence to insulin therapy. The Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) critical appraisal checklist for studies reporting prevalence data was used to assess the quality of included studies. Pooled estimates of the prevalence of adherence to insulin were calculated as a percentage together with a 95 % confidence interval (95%CI) using a random-effect model. All analyses were conducted using STATA 15 (College Station, Texas, United States); PROSPERO (CRD42022322323). RESULTS Search results yielded 14,914 articles, of these 57 studies with a total of 125,241 patients met the inclusion criteria. The overall estimated prevalence of adherence to insulin therapy in both types of diabetes was 55.37 % (95%CI: 48.55 %-62.19 %). The adherence for T1D was 52.63 % (95 % CI: 37.37 %-67.87 %), whereas the adherence for T2D was 52.55 % (95 % CI: 43.08 %-62.01 %). The prevalence of adherence in lower middle-income countries was 56.79 % (95 % CI: 27.85 %-85.74 %). CONCLUSIONS The overall prevalence of adherence to insulin therapy was remarkably low. This requires attention from healthcare practitioners and policymakers to implement appropriate strategic approaches to improve adherence to insulin therapy.

Lin JA, Hou JD, Wu SY. Effect of Sarcopenia on Mortality in Type 2 Diabetes: A Long-Term Follow-Up Propensity Score-Matched Diabetes Cohort Study. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11154424. [PMID: 35956041 PMCID: PMC9369839 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11154424] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/27/2022] [Revised: 07/21/2022] [Accepted: 07/27/2022] [Indexed: 12/26/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose: The effect of sarcopenia on the survival of patients with type 2 diabetes remains unclear. Therefore, we designed a propensity score-matched population-based cohort study to compare the patients with diabetes with or without sarcopenia. Patients and Methods: We included patients with type 2 diabetes and categorized them into two groups according to whether they had sarcopenia and compared their survival; patients in the groups were matched at a ratio of 1:2. Results: The matching process yielded a final cohort of 201,698 patients (132,805 and 68,893 in the sarcopenia and nonsarcopenia diabetes groups, respectively) who were eligible for further analysis. According to both univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses, the adjusted hazard ratios (aHRs; 95% confidence interval [CI]) of all-cause death for the sarcopenia diabetes group compared with the control group: 1.35 (1.33−1.38; p < 0.001). The aHRs (95% CIs) of all-cause death for those aged 41−50, 51−60, and >60 years (compared with those aged ≤40 years) were 1.53 (1.48−1.60), 2.61 (2.52−2.72), and 6.21 (5.99−6.45), respectively. The aHR (95% CI) of all-cause death for the male patients compared with the female patients was 1.56 (1.54−1.60). The aHRs (95% CIs) of all-cause death for those with adapted Diabetes Complications Severity Index (aDCSI) scores of 1, 2, 3, 4, and ≥5 (compared with an aDCSI score of 0) were 1.01 (1.00−1.14), 1.38 (1.35−1.42), 1.58 (1.54−1.63), and 2.23 (2.14−2.33), respectively. Conclusion: Patients with type 2 diabetes and sarcopenia had higher mortality than did those without sarcopenia.
