Abstract
This study determined the associations of apolipoprotein A1 (ApoA1), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and HDL-C/ApoA1 ratio with fasting blood glucose (FBG) and evaluated the mediating effects of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) and body mass index (BMI). A cross-sectional study with 4805 coronary artery disease (CAD) patients was performed. In multivariable analyses, higher ApoA1, HDL-C, and HDL-C/ApoA1 ratio were associated with significantly lower FBG level (Q [quartile] 4 vs Q1: 5.67 vs 5.87 mmol/L for ApoA1; 5.64 vs 5.98 mmol/L for HDL-C; 5.63 vs 6.01 mmol/L for HDL-C/ApoA1 ratio). Moreover, inverse associations of ApoA1, HDL-C, and HDL-C/ApoA1 ratio with abnormal FBG (AFBG) were found with odd ratios (95% confidence interval) of .83 (.70-.98), .60 (.50-.71), and .53 (.45-.64) in Q4 compared with Q1. Path analyses indicated that "ApoA1 (or HDL-C)-FBG" associations were mediated by hsCRP and "HDL-C-FBG" association was mediated by BMI. Our data suggested that higher ApoA1, HDL-C, and HDL-C/ApoA1 ratio were favorably associated with a lower FBG level in CAD patients and these associations might be mediated by hsCRP or BMI. Collectively, higher concentrations of ApoA1, HDL-C, and HDL-C/ApoA1 ratio might decrease the risk of AFBG.

HDL-C criterion of the metabolic syndrome and future diabetes and atherosclerosis in midlife women: The SWAN Study. Am J Prev Cardiol 2024; 19:100687. [PMID: 39070021 PMCID: PMC11279330 DOI: 10.1016/j.ajpc.2024.100687] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2023] [Revised: 04/21/2024] [Accepted: 06/12/2024] [Indexed: 07/30/2024] Open
Abstract
Objective High-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) is one of 5 components [high blood pressure, glucose, triglycerides, waist circumference, low HDL-C], 3 of which, needed to diagnose metabolic syndrome (MetS). Evolving research shows that higher HDL-C is not necessarily cardioprotective in midlife women, supporting a need to re-evaluate HDL-C's contribution to risks related to MetS. We tested whether risk of future diabetes and higher carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT) differ by HDL-C status in midlife women diagnosed with MetS based on the other 4 components. Methods Midlife women were classified into 3 groups 1) no MetS, 2) MetS with HDL-C ≥ 50 mg/dL (MetS hiHDL), and 3) MetS with HDL-C < 50 mg/dL (MetS loHDL). cIMT was measured 13.8 ± 0.6 years post baseline. Incident diabetes was assessed yearly. Results Among 2773 women (1350 (48 %) of them had cIMT), 2383 (86 %) had no MetS, 117 (4 %) had MetS hiHDL, 273 (10 %) had MetS loHDL. Compared with no MetS, both MetS- hiHDL and loHDL groups had higher cIMT and diabetes risk. Risk of having high cIMT did not differ between MetS loHDL vs. hiHDL groups. Adjusting for levels of MetS criteria other than HDL-C at baseline explained the associations of each of the two MetS groups with cIMT. Conversely, after adjustment, associations of MetS hiHDL and MetS loHDL with incident diabetes persisted. Conclusions In midlife women, HDL-C status matters for predicting risk of incident diabetes but not higher cIMT beyond other MetS components.

Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2024; 15:1460280. [PMID: 39280011 PMCID: PMC11392789 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2024.1460280] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/05/2024] [Accepted: 08/16/2024] [Indexed: 09/18/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a prevalent metabolic disorder strongly linked to type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Understanding the predictive value of lipid parameters in identifying abnormal glucose metabolism in NAFLD patients is crucial for early intervention. Methods This study analyzed data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey(NHANES) database (2017-2020) involving 1066 NAFLD patients. Participants were categorized into three groups: T2DM (n=414), prediabetes mellitus (pre-DM) (n=507), and normoglycemia (NG) (n=145). Traditional lipid parameters [triglycerides (TG) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C)] and nontraditional lipid parameters [atherogenic index of plasma (AIP), residual cholesterol (RC), and non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C)] were evaluated for their association with T2DM and pre-DM. Results Elevated TG levels were significantly associated with an increased risk of T2DM and pre-DM, whereas high HDL-C demonstrated a protective effect. Among nontraditional lipid parameters, increased AIP and RC were most strongly associated with T2DM risk, while high non-HDL-C was best associated with the development of pre-DM. Stratified analyses revealed that these associations were stronger in younger, non-obese, smoking, and female NAFLD patients. Conclusion Nontraditional lipid parameters, particularly AIP and RC, show superior predictive value over traditional lipid parameters in identifying abnormal glucose metabolism in NAFLD patients. Incorporating these novel biomarkers into clinical practice could enhance early detection and prevention strategies for T2DM and pre-DM in this high-risk population.

Abstract
Objective Currently, distinct use of clinical data, routine laboratory indicators or the detection of diabetic autoantibodies in the diagnosis and management of diabetes mellitus is limited. Hence, this study was aimed to screen the indicators, and to establish and validate a multifactorial logistic regression model nomogram for the non-invasive differential prediction of type 1 diabetes mellitus. Methods Clinical data, routine laboratory indicators, and diabetes autoantibody profiles of diabetic patients admitted between September 2018 and December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Logistic regression was used to select the independent influencing factors, and a prediction nomogram based on the multiple logistic regression model was constructed using these independent factors. Moreover, the predictive accuracy and clinical application value of the nomogram were evaluated using Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curves, calibration curves, decision curve analysis (DCA), and clinical impact curves (CIC). Results A total of 522 diabetic patients were included in this study. These patients were randomized into training and validation sets in a 7:3 ratio. The predictors screened included age, prealbumin (PA), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), islet cells autoantibodies (ICA), islets antigen 2 autoantibodies (IA-2A), glutamic acid decarboxylase antibody (GADA), and C-peptide levels. Based on these factors, a multivariate model nomogram was constructed, which had an Area Under Curve (AUC) of 0.966 and 0.961 for the training set and validation set, respectively. Subsequently, the calibration curves demonstrated a strong accuracy of the graph; the DCA and CIC results indicated that the graph could be used as a non-invasive valid predictive tool for the differential diagnosis of type 1 diabetes mellitus, clinically. Conclusion The established prediction model combining patient's age, PA, HDL-C, ICA, IA-2A, GADA, and C-peptide can assist in differential diagnosis of type 1 diabetes mellitus and type 2 diabetes mellitus and provides a basis for the clinical as well as therapeutic management of the disease.

Abstract
Abstract Aims: To explore whether the triglyceride to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (TG/HDL-C) was independently associated with the risk of incident type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in a large Japanese cohort. Methods: A secondary analysis was performed using open-access data from a retrospective cohort study. A total of 12,716 eligible participants who had standard medical examinations at the Murakami Memorial Hospital were included in this study. New-onset T2DM was the main outcome during follow-up. The risk of T2DM based on the TG/HDL-C ratio was evaluated using Cox regression analysis and Kaplan-Meier analysis. Subgroup analysis was performed to understand further the significance of the TG/HDL-C ratio in particular populations. To assess the potential of the TG/HDL-C ratio for predicting T2DM, a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was performed. Results: One hundred fifty new-onset T2DM cases were observed during a median follow-up of 5.39 years. The incidence of T2DM increased with a rise in the TG/HDL-C ratio based on the Kaplan-Meier curves (P < 0.0001). After controlling for potential confounding variables, the TG/HDL-C ratio was positively related to incidence of T2DM (hazard ratio = 1.08, 95% confidence interval: 1.01-1.15, P = 0.0239). In subgroup analysis, those with a body mass index of ≥18.5 and <24 kg/m2 showed a significantly positive relationship. The area under the ROC curve for the TG/HDL-C ratio as a T2DM predictor was 0.684. The optimal TG/HDL-C ratio cutoff value for T2DM was 1.609, with a sensitivity of 54.7% and a specificity of 73.6%. Conclusion: The authors' results showed a significant relationship between the TG/HDL-C ratio and the incidence of T2DM in the Japanese population.

Association between atherogenic index of plasma and gestational diabetes mellitus: a prospective cohort study based on the Korean population. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2024; 23:237.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) is a non-traditional lipid parameter that can reflect the burden of atherosclerosis. A lipid profile resembling atherosclerosis emerged during pregnancy. Although lipid metabolism is pivotal in diabetes pathogenesis, there is no evidence linking AIP to gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Therefore, our objective was to explore the relationship between AIP and GDM and assess AIP's predictive capability for GDM. METHODS This was a secondary analysis based on data from a prospective cohort study in Korea involving 585 single pregnant women. AIP was calculated as log10 (TG/HDL). We examined the relationship between AIP and GDM using logistic regression models, curve fitting, sensitivity analyses, and subgroup analyses. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was also used to determine the ability of AIP to predict GDM. RESULTS The average age of the participants was 32.06 ± 3.76 years. The AIP was 0.24 ± 0.20 on average. The GDM incidence was 6.15%. After adjustment for potentially confounding variables, AIP showed a positive linear relationship with GDM (P for non-linearity: 0.801, OR 1.58, 95% CI 1.27-1.97). The robustness of the connection between AIP and GDM was demonstrated by sensitivity analyses and subgroup analyses. An area under the ROC curve of 0.7879 (95% CI 0.7087-0.8671) indicates that AIP is an excellent predictor of GDM. With a specificity of 75.41% and sensitivity of 72.22%, the ideal AIP cut-off value for identifying GDM was 0.3557. CONCLUSIONS This study revealed that the AIP at 10-14 weeks of gestation was independently and positively correlated with GDM risk. AIP could serve as an early screening and monitoring tool for pregnant women at high risk of GDM, thereby optimizing GDM prevention strategies. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov registration no.

Abstract
Elderly women are more susceptible to the development of chronic non-communicable diseases. Among these, diabetes mellitus (DM) and systemic arterial hypertension (SAH) stand out. This work aimed to carry out an expanded study on the interactions of anthropometric, biochemical and inflammatory parameters associated with the risk of severity in elderly women with hypertension and diabetes. The study involved the evaluation of 126 elderly women with hypertension and diabetes mellitus. The women were divided according disease severity (low, moderate, high and very high). Anthropometric data were collected by bioimpedance analysis. The inflammatory and biochemical data were obtained from volunteer blood samples. Waist circumference, waist circumference/height ratio, and systolic and diastolic pressures increased with severity. Biochemical marker levels increased with risk of severity, except HDLc. In the very high risk group, there was a higher IL-1β, IFN-γ and TNF-α production, however, lower IL-10 levels were observed. The very high risk group showed change values for the IL-10/IL-1β, IL-10/IL-17 and IL-10/TNF-α ratios. The results showed to be extensively altered in the very high risk group, where the inflammatory profile loses its responsiveness. This is the first study that shows an expanded view of the different parameters evaluated in elderly women with hypertension and diabetes.

Abstract
PURPOSE The prevalence of diabetes is increasing worldwide. The associations between the lipid profile and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), fasting glucose, and diabetes remain unclear, so we aimed to perform a cohort study and a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) study to investigate the causality between blood lipid profile and HbA1c, fasting glucose, and diabetes. METHODS A total of 25,171 participants from the Taiwan Biobank were enrolled. We applied a cohort study and an MR study to assess the association between blood lipid profile and HbA1c, fasting glucose, and diabetes. The summary statistics were obtained from the Asian Genetic Epidemiology Network (AGEN), and the estimates between the instrumental variables (IVs) and outcomes were calculated using the inverse-variance weighted (IVW) method. A series of sensitivity analyses were performed. RESULTS In the cohort study, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) was negatively associated with HbA1c, fasting glucose, and diabetes, while the causal associations between HDL-C and HbA1c (βIVW = - 0.098, p = 0.003) and diabetes (βIVW = - 0.594, p < 0.001) were also observed. Furthermore, there was no pleiotropy effect in this study using the MR-Egger intercept test and MR-PRESSO global test. CONCLUSIONS Our results support the hypothesis that a genetically determined increase in HDL-C is causally related to a reduction in HbA1c and a lower risk of diabetes.

[PMID: 37991441 PMCID: PMC10906023 DOI: 10.1111/jdi.14109] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2023] [Revised: 10/26/2023] [Accepted: 11/01/2023] [Indexed: 11/23/2023] Open
Abstract
AIMS/INTRODUCTION To evaluate the relative contributions of the area under the C-peptide curve (AUCC ) in diabetic retinopathy (DR) during an oral glucose tolerance test and C-peptide release test in patients with type 2 diabetes. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the data of 969 patients. Their general characteristics were retrieved. A series of parameters for assessing pancreatic β-cells function, such as the AUCC for six time periods: 0-60 min (AUCC0-60 ), 0-120 min (AUCC0-120 ), 0-180 min (AUCC0-180 ), 60-120 min (AUCC60-120 ), 60-180 min (AUCC60-180 ) and 120-180 min (AUCC120-180 ); the area under the glucose-time curve for six time periods: 0-60 min (AUCG0-60 ), 0-120 min (AUCG0-120 ), 0-180 min (AUCG0-180 ), 60-120 min (AUCG60-120 ), 60-180 min (AUCG60-180 ) and 120-180 min (AUCG120-180 ) and their related indexes, were calculated through 0-180 min oral glucose tolerance test and C-peptide release test. We used univariate analysis to examine the potential factors affecting DR. Spearman's correlation was used to analyze the correlation between AUCC -related indexes and DR. The logistic regression model was used to investigate AUCC and its related indexes' contribution to incidence DR. A smooth curve fitting model was used to determine the correlation, non-linear relationship, and threshold effect between AUCC and DR. RESULTS Of the 969 patients with type 2 diabetes, 469 (48.40%) and 500 (51.60%) were classified as the DR group and non-DR group. Compared with the non-DR group, the DR patients had lower AUCC and AUCC /AUCG . Spearman's correlation analysis showed that AUCC -related indexes were all negatively correlated with DR. The logistic regression analysis determined that there were associations between AUCC and DR in the adjusted models. The odds ratio values of AUCC0-60 , AUCC0-120 , AUCC0-180 , AUCC0-60 /AUCG0-60 , AUCC0-120 /AUCG0-120 , AUCC0-180 /AUCG0-180 , AUCC60-120 , AUCC60-180 , AUCC120-180 , AUCC60-120 /AUCG60-120 , AUCC60-180 /AUCG60-180 and AUCC120-180 /AUCG120-180 were 0.817 (0.750, 0.890), 0.925 (0.895, 0.955), 0.951 (0.932, 0.970), 0.143 (0.060, 0.340), 0.194 (0.093, 0.406), 0.223 (0.116, 0.427), 0.886 (0.842, 0.933), 0.939 (0.915, 0.963), 0.887 (0.846, 0.930), 0.253 (0.133, 0.479), 0.282 (0.160, 0.497) and 0.355 (0.220, 0.573), respectively. AUCC showed a non-linear relationship with DR, with an inflection point. The inflection points of AUCC180 /AUCG180 , AUCC60-120 , AUCC60-180 , AUCC120-180 , AUCC60-120 /AUCG60-120 , AUCC60-180 /AUCG60-180 , AUCC120-180 /AUCG120-180 and DR were 17.51, 0.542, 6.6, 15.7, 8.23, 0.534, 0.593 and 0.808 (P < 0.0001). When the indexes related to the AUCC were less than the inflection point value, they were significantly negatively associated with DR. CONCLUSIONS The indexes related to the AUCC for six time periods during an oral glucose tolerance test and C-peptide release test was closely associated with the incidence to DR in patients with type 2 diabetes. AUCC has the added advantage of being a cheap and convenient risk assessment over traditional ophthalmic screening.

Abstract
Introduction The ratio of Triglyceride (TG) to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) is a crucial indicator for diabetes diagnosis. Methods This study utilizes the Copula function to model and fit the non-linear correlation among fasting blood glucose (Glu), glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1C), and TG/HDL-C in patients with diabetes. The Copula function chosen for this study includes the two-dimensional Archimedes and Elliptical distribution family, as well as the multidimensional Vine Copula function, for fitting the data. The evaluation of the fitting effect is performed using the mean absolute error (MAE) and mean square error (MSE). Results The results indicate that the Clayton Copula exhibits the highest effectiveness in fitting the pairwise relationship between Glu and TG/HDL-C, as well as HbA1C and TG/HDL-C, displaying the smallest fitting error. Additionally, the Vine Copula function produces a satisfactory fit for the relationship among all three indicators. Compared to linear analysis methods, the Copula function more accurately depicts the correlation among these three types of indicators. Discussion Moreover, our findings indicate a stronger correlation in the lower tail between Glu and HbA1C, as well as TG/HDL-C, suggesting that the Copula function provides greater accuracy and applicability in depicting the relationship among these indicators. As a result, it can offer a more precise auxiliary diagnosis and serve as a valuable reference in clinical judgment.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Thyroid disorders and diabetes mellitus are prevalent conditions in the modern era. Moreover, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) is the established (prognostic as well as diagnostic) marker for long-term glycemic control, whereas the lipid profile is the marker for cardiovascular risks. The association of hypothyroidism with dyslipidemia is also a well-established fact. The current study explores a correlation between thyroid profile, glycemic status, and various lipoprotein indices. OBJECTIVE To look for an association between thyroid profile, glycemic status, and various lipoprotein indices. METHODOLOGY The cross-sectional study conducted at AIIMS Gorakhpur included a total of 108 subjects, with 37 normal subjects (Group I) and 71 patients) with T2DM (Type-2 diabetes mellitus) (Group II). Baseline characteristics of the two groups were compared for age, sex, presence of hypertension, fasting blood glucose, and body mass index (BMI). Blood samples were collected from the patients. The sera were analyzed for HbA1c and lipid profile, which included total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C). Serum samples were also used to estimate the thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) and triiodothyronine (fT3). The association between thyroid profile, glycemic status, and various lipoprotein indices was calculated. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS Kolmogorov-Smirnov test for normality of the data. Spearmann correlation was used for nonparametric data. RESULTS There were significantly higher levels of total cholesterol, triglycerides, and LDL-C levels in T2DM subjects than in non-diabetic subjects. There was also a significant positive correlation observed between TSH and TC among the normal control group (ρ =0.348, P=0.04). Similarly, significant positive correlations were found for TG (ρ =0.354, P=0.04) and LDL-C (ρ =0.431, P=0.03) among non-diabetic subjects. Among patients with T2DM, TSH was significantly correlated positively with TG (ρ =0.530, P=0.006) and LDL-C (ρ =0.443, P=0.03). Similarly, in the same group, among lipid ratios, TG/HDL-C (ρ =0.311, P=0.04) and LDL-C/HDL-C (ρ =0.227, P=0.05) were significantly correlated to TSH. Furthermore, there were significant positive correlations between TSH and HbA1c (ρ =0.301, P=0.04). fT3 was found to have a strong negative correlation with HbA1c among patients with T2DM (ρ =-0.454, P=0.02). CONCLUSION Thyroid disorders exert significant effects on glycemic control and lipid metabolism, which may impact HbA1c levels and lipid profile parameters.

Abstract
Introduction Diabetes mellitus (DM) has become a common disorder in India, and can be even considered as an epidemic in most developing countries. It usually adds a big burden on the economy through its macro and microvascular complications which often require hospitalisation. Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) is considered a well-established test to track long-term glycemic control, and hence can be used for both diagnosis and prognosis of disease. On the other hand, lipid profile is a significant marker of cardiovascular risks. Objective To investigate the clinical relevance of lipid profile and correlate with glycemic control in type 2 DM patients. Methodology This observational study used laboratory results (HbA1c and lipid profile) of 140 patients who attended various out-patient departments (OPD) of All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), Gorakhpur. On the advice of clinicians, for routine follow-up, blood samples were collected from the patients (aged 20-50 years, 84 males, and 56 females, with a history of more than three years of type 2 DM). The sera were analyzed for HbA1c and lipid profile [which included triglycerides (TG), total cholesterol (TC), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C)]. Based on HbA1c levels the study subjects were divided into three groups, namely group I (HbA1c <7%, n=14), group II (HbA1c7%-8.5%, n=91), and group III (HbA1c >8.5%, n=35). Correlation studies between HbA1c and parameters of lipid profile were explored in the study. Data generated were checked for normality and correlation studies were accordingly done. Results Elevated levels of HbA1c were associated with a notable parallel increase in LDL-C levels (P<0.05), TG, and TC. There was no notable correlation observed between HbA1c and HDL-C levels. However, as HbA1c levels increased, the TG/HDL-C and LDL-C/HDL-C ratios displayed a gradual rise (P<0.05). Conclusion LDL-C and the LDL-C/HDL-C ratio serve as valuable tools for evaluating and mitigating cardiovascular disease risk and are correlated to glycemic control among individuals with type 2 DM.

Abstract
Myocardial infarction is a major contributor to CVD-related mortality. T2DM is a risk factor for MI. Stress activates the HPA axis, SNS, and endogenous OPS. These POMC derivatives increase the blood glucose and cardiovascular response by inhibiting the PI3K/AkT insulin signaling pathway and increasing cardiac contraction. Opioids regulate the effect of the HPA axis and SNS and they are cardioprotective. The chronic activation of the stress response may lead to insulin resistance, cardiac dysfunction, and MI. Stress and T2DM, therefore, increase the risk of MI. T2DM is preceded by prediabetes. Studies have shown that prediabetes is associated with an increased risk of MI because of inflammation, hyperlipidemia, endothelial dysfunction, and hypertension. The HPA axis is reported to be dysregulated in prediabetes. However, the SNS and the OPS have not been explored during prediabetes. The effect of prediabetes on POMC derivatives has yet to be fully explored and understood. The impact of stress and prediabetes on the cardiovascular response needs to be investigated. This study sought to review the potential impact of prediabetes on the POMC derivatives and pathways that could lead to MI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Abnormal lipid metabolism poses a risk for prediabetes. However, research on lipid parameters used to predict the risk of prediabetes is scarce, and the significance of traditional and untraditional lipid parameters remains unexplored in prediabetes. This study aimed to comprehensively evaluate the association between 12 lipid parameters and prediabetes and their diagnostic value. METHODS This cross-sectional study included data from 100,309 Chinese adults with normal baseline blood glucose levels. New onset of prediabetes was the outcome of concern. Untraditional lipid parameters were derived from traditional lipid parameters. Multivariate logistic regression and smooth curve fitting were used to examine the nonlinear relationship between lipid parameters and prediabetes. A two-piecewise linear regression model was used to identify the critical points of lipid parameters influencing the risk of prediabetes. The areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve estimated the predictive value of the lipid parameters. RESULTS A total of 12,352 participants (12.31%) were newly diagnosed with prediabetes. Following adjustments for confounding covariables, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol were negatively correlated with prediabetes risk. Conversely, total cholesterol, triglyceride (TG), lipoprotein combine index (LCI), atherogenic index of plasma (AIP), non-HDL-C, atherogenic coefficient, Castelli's index-I, remnant cholesterol (RC), and RC/HDL-C ratio displayed positive correlations. In younger adults, females, individuals with a family history of diabetes, and non-obese individuals, LCI, TG, and AIP exhibited higher predictive values for the onset of prediabetes compared to other lipid profiles. CONCLUSION Nonlinear associations were observed between untraditional lipid parameters and the risk of prediabetes. The predictive value of untraditional lipid parameters for prediabetes surpassed that of traditional lipid parameters, with LCI emerging as the most effective predictor for prediabetes.

Association between high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and reversion to normoglycemia from prediabetes: an analysis based on data from a retrospective cohort study. Sci Rep 2024; 14:35.

Abstract
The available evidence on the connection between high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels and the reversion from prediabetes (Pre-DM) to normoglycemia is currently limited. The present research sought to examine the connection between HDL-C levels and the regression from Pre-DM to normoglycemia in a population of Chinese adults. This historical cohort study collected 15,420 Pre-DM patients in China who underwent health screening between 2010 and 2016. The present research used the Cox proportional hazards regression model to investigate the connection between HDL-C levels and reversion from Pre-DM to normoglycemia. The Cox proportional hazards regression model with cubic spline functions and smooth curve fitting was employed to ascertain the nonlinear association between HDL-C and reversion from Pre-DM to normoglycemia. Furthermore, a set of sensitivity analyses and subgroup analyses were employed. Following the adjustment of covariates, the findings revealed a positive connection between HDL-C levels and the likelihood of reversion from Pre-DM to normoglycemia (HR 1.898, 95% CI 1.758-2.048, P < 0.001). Furthermore, there was a non-linear relationship between HDL-C and the reversion from Pre-DM to normoglycemia in both genders, and the inflection point of HDL-C was 1.540 mmol/L in males and 1.620 mmol/L in females. We found a strong positive correlation between HDL-C and the reversion from Pre-DM to normoglycemia on the left of the inflection point (Male: HR 2.783, 95% CI 2.373-3.263; Female: HR 2.217, 95% CI 1.802-2.727). Our sensitivity analysis confirmed the robustness of these findings. Subgroup analyses indicated that patients with SBP < 140 mmHg and ever smoker exhibited a more pronounced correlation between HDL-C levels and the reversion from Pre-DM to normoglycemia. In contrast, a less robust correlation was observed among patients with SBP ≥ 140 mmHg, current and never smokers. This study provides evidence of a positive and nonlinear association between HDL-C levels and the reversion from Pre-DM to normoglycemia in Chinese patients. Implementing intensified intervention measures to control the HDL-C levels of patients with Pre-DM around the inflection point may substantially enhance the likelihood of regression to normoglycemia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR), associated with adverse outcomes in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), has several definitions. This study aims to assess the prognostic value of SHR, derived from hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) or glycated albumin (GA), to mortality. METHODS The study comprised 1,643 STEMI patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in two centers. SHR1 was calculated using fasting blood glucose (FBG)/GA, while SHR2 was calculated using the formula FBG/(1.59*HbA1c-2.59). The primary endpoints were in-hospital death and all-cause mortality, with a median follow-up duration of 1.56 years. RESULTS Higher SHR1 and SHR2 values are associated with increased risks of in-hospital death and all-cause mortality. Each standard deviation increase in SHR1 corresponded to a 39% and 22% escalation in in-hospital death and all-cause mortality, respectively. The respective increases for SHR2 were 51% and 26%. Further examinations validated these relationships as linear. Additionally, the areas under the curve (AUC) for in-hospital death were not significantly different between SHR1 and SHR2 (p > 0.05). Incorporating SHR1 or SHR2 into the base model significantly improved the discrimination and risk reclassification for in-hospital and all-cause mortality. A subgroup analysis revealed that the effects of SHR1 and SHR2 were more pronounced in patients with hypercholesteremia. CONCLUSION SHR1 and SHR2 have emerged as robust and independent prognostic markers for STEMI patients undergoing PCI. The SHR calculation based on either HbA1c or GA can provide additional predictive value for mortality beyond traditional risk factors, helping to identify high-risk STEMI patients.

Abstract
Atherosclerotic disease of the coronary and carotid arteries is the primary global cause of significant mortality and morbidity. The chronic occlusive diseases have changed the epidemiological landscape of health problems both in developed and the developing countries. Despite the enormous benefit of advanced revascularization techniques, use of statins, and successful attempts of targeting modifiable risk factors, like smoking and exercise in the last four decades, there is still a definite "residual risk" in the population, as evidenced by many prevalent and new cases every year. Here, we highlight the burden of the atherosclerotic diseases and provide substantial clinical evidence of the residual risks in these diseases despite advanced management settings, with emphasis on strokes and cardiovascular risks. We critically discussed the concepts and potential underlying mechanisms of the evolving atherosclerotic plaques in the coronary and carotid arteries. This has changed our understanding of the plaque biology, the progression of unstable vs stable plaques, and the evolution of plaque prior to the occurrence of a major adverse atherothrombotic event. This has been facilitated using intravascular ultrasound, optical coherence tomography, and near-infrared spectroscopy in the clinical settings to achieve surrogate end points. These techniques are now providing exquisite information on plaque size, composition, lipid volume, fibrous cap thickness and other features that were previously not possible with conventional angiography.

[PMID: 37940952 PMCID: PMC10634002 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-023-02046-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 17.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/05/2023] [Accepted: 10/30/2023] [Indexed: 11/10/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies have investigated the association between the ratio of triglycerides (TG) to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and the incidence of diabetes in adults and discovered that a high TG/HDL-C ratio was linked to an elevated risk of new-onset diabetes. However, the comparison of predicting diabetes development among lipid profiles including the TG/HDL-C ratio, and the ratio of TG/HDL-C cut-off value has received limited attention. We examined the relationship between diabetes onset and the TG/HDL-C ratio in addition to the applicable cut-off value for predicting diabetes onset. METHODS This study included 120,613 participants from the health examination database at Panasonic Corporation from 2008 to 2017. Cox regression analysis employing multivariable models was used to investigate the association between lipid profiles, particularly the ratio of TG/HDL-C and the development of type 2 diabetes (T2D). The multivariable model was adjusted for age, sex, BMI, systolic blood pressure, plasma glucose levels after fasting, smoking status, and exercise habits. Areas under time-dependent receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves (AUCs) were employed to assess the prediction performance and cut-off values of each indicator. A fasting plasma glucose level of 126 mg/dL, a self-reported history of diabetes, or usage of antidiabetic medicines were used to identify T2D. RESULTS During the course of the study, 6,080 people developed T2D. The median follow-up duration was 6.0 (3-10) years. Multivariable analysis revealed that the ratio of TG/HDL-C (per unit, HR; 1.03 [95% CI 1.02-1.03]) was substantially linked to the risk of incident T2D. AUC and cut-off points for the ratio of TG/HDL-C for T2D development after 10 years were 0.679 and 2.1, respectively. Furthermore, the AUC of the ratio of TG/HDL-C was considerably larger compared to that of LDL-C, HDL-C, and TG alone (all P < 0.001). We discovered an interaction effect between sex, BMI, and lipid profiles in subgroup analysis. Females and participants having a BMI of < 25 kg/m2 showed a higher correlation between lipid profile levels and T2D onset. CONCLUSIONS The ratio of TG/HDL-C was found to be a stronger predictor of T2D development within 10 years than LDL-C, HDL-C, or TG, indicating that it may be useful in future medical treatment support.

The role of fibrinolysis in the development of prediabetes-associated coronary heart disease: a focus on the plasminogen activator inhibitor -1 and its potential use as a predictive marker in diet-induced prediabetes. Front Nutr 2023; 10:1256427. [PMID: 38024366 PMCID: PMC10652797 DOI: 10.3389/fnut.2023.1256427] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/10/2023] [Accepted: 10/11/2023] [Indexed: 12/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). However, the onset of T2DM is preceded by prediabetes, which is associated with sedentary lifestyles and consumption of high-calorie diets. Studies have shown that impaired glucose homeostasis creates an environment for developing T2DM-related complications. Using a high-fat-high-carbohydrate diet-induced prediabetes animal model, this study sought to assess the risk factors of coronary heart disease (CHD) in diet-induced prediabetes and identify biomarkers that can be used for early detection of prediabetes-associated CHD. Methods Male Sprague Dawley rats were randomly grouped into two groups and were kept on different diets for 20 weeks (n = 6 in each group). One group was fed standard rat chow to serve as a non-prediabetes (NPD) control, while the other group consumed a high-fat-high-carbohydrate diet to induce prediabetes (PD). Post induction, the homeostasis model assessment- insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) and glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) was used to test for insulin resistance. Body weight, mean arterial pressure (MAP), resting heart rate (HR), inflammatory cytokines (C-reactive protein (CRP), tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6)), lipids (total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), lipoproteins (HDL, LDL, VLDL)), endothelial function (endothelial nitric oxide (eNOS), endothelin -1 (ET-1)), fibrinolysis (plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1)) were all measured to assess the risk of CHD. All data were expressed as means ± S.E.M. Statistical comparisons were performed with Graph Pad. Instat Software using Student's two-sided t-test. The Pearson correlation coefficient and linear regression were calculated to assess the association. The value of p < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results There was significant insulin resistance accompanied by significantly increased HbA1c and body weight in PD compared to NPD. Simultaneously, there was a significant increase in inflammatory cytokines in PD compared to NPD. This was accompanied by significantly increased TG and VLDL and endothelial dysfunction in PD. The association between HOMA-IR and PAI-1 was insignificantly positive in NPD, whereas a significantly strong positive association was observed in PD. Conclusion There is a positive correlation between insulin resistance and PAI-1 during prediabetes; therefore, suggesting that prediabetes increases the risk of developing vascular thrombosis. The current therefore study warrants further investigation on PAI-1 and other markers of fibrinolysis for the early detection of thrombosis and risk of CHD in prediabetes.

Pharmacol Res 2023; 197:106972.

Abstract
The main role of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) is the transfer of cholesteryl esters and triglycerides between high-density lipoprotein (HDL) particles and triglyceride-rich lipoprotein and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) particles. There is a long history of investigations regarding the inhibition of CETP as a target for reducing major adverse cardiovascular events. Initially, the potential effect on cardiovascular events of CETP inhibitors was hypothesized to be mediated by their ability to increase HDL cholesterol, but, based on evidence from anacetrapib and the newest CETP inhibitor, obicetrapib, it is now understood to be primarily due to reducing LDL cholesterol and apolipoprotein B. Nevertheless, evidence is also mounting that other roles of HDL, including its promotion of cholesterol efflux, as well as its apolipoprotein composition and anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative, and anti-diabetic properties, may play important roles in several diseases beyond cardiovascular disease, including, but not limited to, Alzheimer's disease, diabetes, and sepsis. Furthermore, although Mendelian randomization analyses suggested that higher HDL cholesterol is associated with increased risk of age-related macular degeneration (AMD), excess risk of AMD was absent in all CETP inhibitor randomized controlled trial data comprising over 70,000 patients. In fact, certain HDL subclasses may, in contrast, be beneficial for treating the retinal cholesterol accumulation that occurs with AMD. This review describes the latest biological evidence regarding the relationship between HDL and CETP inhibition for Alzheimer's disease, type 2 diabetes mellitus, sepsis, and AMD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Circulating MicroRNAs (miRNAs) carried by microvesicles (MVs) have various physiological and pathological functions by post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression being considered markers for many diseases including diabetes and dyslipidemia. We aimed to identify new common miRNAs both in MVs and plasma that could be predictive biomarkers for diabetic dyslipidemia evolution. METHODS For this purpose, plasma from 63 participants in the study (17 type 2 diabetic patients, 17 patients with type 2 diabetes and dyslipidemia, 14 patients with dyslipidemia alone and 15 clinically healthy persons without diabetes or dyslipidemia) was used for the analysis of circulating cytokines, MVs, miRNAs and MV-associated miRNAs. RESULTS The results uncovered three miRNAs, miR-218, miR-132 and miR-143, whose expression was found to be significantly up-regulated in both circulating MVs and plasma from diabetic patients with dyslipidemia. These miRNAs showed significant correlations with important plasma markers, representative of this pathology. Thus, MV/plasma miR-218 was negatively correlated with the levels of erythrocyte MVs, plasma miR-132 was positively connected with MV miR-132 and negatively with uric acid and erythrocyte plasma levels, and plasma miR-143 was negatively related with creatinine levels and diastolic blood pressure. Also, three miRNAs common to MV and plasma, namely miR-21, miR-122, and miR-155, were identified to be down-regulated and up-regulated, respectively, in diabetic dyslipidemia. In addition, MV miR-21 was positively linked with cholesterol plasma levels and plasma miR-21 with TNFα plasma levels, MV miR-122 was negatively correlated with LDL-c levels and plasma miR-122 with creatinine and diastolic blood pressure and positively with MV miR-126 levels, MV miR-155 was positively associated with cholesterol and total MV levels and negatively with HDL-c levels, whereas plasma miR-155 was positively correlated with Il-1β plasma levels and total MV levels and negatively with MV miR-223 levels. CONCLUSIONS In conclusion, miR-218, miR-132, miR-143, and miR-21, miR-122, miR-155 show potential as biomarkers for diabetic dyslipidemia, but there is a need for more in-depth studies. These findings bring new information regarding the molecular biomarkers specific to diabetic dyslipidemia and could have important implications for the treatment of patients affected by this pathology.

Abstract
Background Several studies have verified that a high baseline TG/HDL-C ratio is a risk factor for incident type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, for low baseline TG/HDL-C levels, the findings were inconsistent with ours. In addition, the association between baseline TG/HDL-C ratio and the risk of incident T2DM in Japanese men with normal glycemic levels is unclear. As a result, our study further investigated the relationship between baseline TG/HDL-C and the risk of incident T2DM in Japanese men with normal glycemic levels. Methods This was a secondary longitudinal cohort study. We selected 7,684 male participants between 2004 and 2015 from the NAGALA database. A standardized Cox regression model and two piecewise Cox regression models were used to explore the relationship between the baseline high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (TG/HDL-C) and incident T2DM. Results During a median follow-up of 2,282 days, 162 men developed incident T2DM. In the adjusted model, the baseline TG/HDL-C ratio was strongly associated with the risk of incident T2DM, and no dose-dependent positive association was observed between the baseline TG/HDL-C ratio and incidence of T2DM throughout the baseline TG/HDL-C quartiles. Two-piecewise linear regression analysis showed a U-shaped association between baseline TG/HDL-C ratio and incidence of incident T2DM. A baseline TG/HDL-C ratio below 1.188 was negatively associated with incident T2DM (H.R. = 0.105, 95% CI = 0.025, 0.451; P = 0.002). In contrast, a baseline TG/HDL-C ratio >1.188 was positively associated with incident T2DM (H.R. = 1.248, 95% CI = 1.113, 1.399; P<0.001). The best TG/HDL-C threshold for predicting incident T2DM was 1.8115 (area under the curve, 0.6837). Conclusion A U-shaped relationship between baseline TG/HDL-C ratio and incident T2DM in Japanese men with normal glycemic levels was found.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although the atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) based on a single measurement is a known risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD), little is known about whether changes in AIP over time are related to incident CVD. We aimed to determine whether AIP trajectory, which reflects homogenous AIP trends for a particular period, is associated with CVD risk. METHODS Data from 5,843 participants of the Korean Genome and Epidemiology Study (KoGES) were analyzed. The KoGES had been conducted biennially from the baseline survey (2001-2002) to the eighth follow-up survey (2017-2018). The research design specifies the exposure period from baseline to the third follow-up, designates the latent period at the fourth follow-up, and establishes the event accrual period from the fifth to the eighth follow-up. During the exposure period, we identified two trajectories: a decreasing (n = 3,036) and an increasing group (n = 2,807) using latent variable mixture modeling. Information on CVD was collected initially through the self-reporting, followed by in depth person-to-person interview conducted by a well-trained examiner. During the event accrual period, the cumulative incidence rates of CVD between the two AIP trajectory groups were estimated using Kaplan-Meier analysis with the log-rank test. Multiple Cox proportional hazard models were used to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). RESULTS The increasing AIP trajectory group had a significantly higher cumulative incidence rate of CVD than the decreasing AIP trajectory group. Compared to the decreasing AIP trajectory group, the increasing AIP trajectory group had a higher risk of incident CVD (HR: 1.31, 95% CI: 1.02-1.69) after adjusting for confounders. CONCLUSIONS The risk of incident CVD increased when the AIP level showed an increasing trend and remained high over a long period. This suggests that checking and managing the trajectory of the AIP can be a preventive strategy for incident CVD.

Abstract
Hypercholesterolemia is often correlated with obesity which is considered a risk factor for various cancers. With the growing population of hypercholesterolemic individuals, there is a need to understand the role of increased circulatory cholesterol or dietary cholesterol intake towards cancer etiology and pathology. Recently, abnormality in the blood cholesterol level of colon cancer patients has been reported. In the present study, we demonstrate that alteration in cholesterol levels (through a high-cholesterol or high-fat diet) increases the incidence of chemical carcinogen-induced colon polyp occurrence and tumor progression in mice. At the cellular level, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDLc) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDLc) promote colon cancer cell proliferation by tuning the cellular glucose and lipid metabolism. Mechanistically, supplementation of LDLc or HDLc promotes cellular glucose uptake, and utilization, thereby, causing an increase in lactate production by colon cancer cells. Moreover, LDLc or HDLc upregulates aerobic glycolysis, causing an increase in total ATP production through glycolysis, and a decrease in ATP generation by OXPHOS. Interestingly, the shift in the metabolic status towards a more glycolytic phenotype upon the availability of cholesterol supports rapid cell proliferation. Additionally, an alteration in the expression of the molecules involved in cholesterol uptake along with the increase in lipid and cholesterol accumulation was observed in cells supplemented with LDLc or HDLc. These results indicate that colon cancer cells directly utilize the cholesterol associated with LDLc or HDLc. Moreover, targeting glucose metabolism through LDH inhibitor (oxamate) drastically abrogates the cellular proliferation induced by LDLc or HDLc. Collectively, we illustrate the vital role of cholesterol in regulating the cellular glucose and lipid metabolism of cancer cells and its direct effect on the colon tumorigenesis.

Abstract
Background Current knowledge on apolipoprotein A1 (APOA1) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is fragmented and even contradictory. Multi-dimensional analyses are required to comprehensively elucidate its value and underlying mechanism. Methods We collected 49 RNA-seq datasets, 40 cell line types data and 70 scRNA pan-cancer datasets public available, including 17 HCC datasets (1754 tumor samples), and enrolled 73 pairs of HCC tissue and 516 blood samples independently from our clinics. APOA1 impacting on the HCC tumor microenvironment (TME) was analyzed using intensive data mining. Methylation sequencing, flow cytometry, quantitative PCR, western blot, immunohistochemistry and clinical chemistry assays were conducted for wet experimental investigation. Results The APOA1 ontology fingerprint indicated that it played various crucial biological roles in HCC, primarily involved in cholesterol efflux. Consistent findings at histology, serology, and clinical follow-up revealed that high APOA1 was a good prognosis indicator of HCC. Hypermethylation in the APOA1 promoter region was found in clinical samples which is in accordance with the reduction of APOA1 in HCC. The cell cycle, DNA replication, mismatch repair pathways, and tumor cell proliferation were less observed in the HCC APOA1high subgroup. The favorable immunoregulatory abilities of APOA1 showed interesting findings: a positive correlation between APOA1 and anti-tumor immune cells (NK, CD8+ T cells) and a negative association with immune cells exerting immunosuppressive effects, including M2 macrophages. Conclusion This is an integrative multidimensional exploration of APOA1 using bioinformatics and experiments. Both the prognostic value and anti-tumor effects based on APOA1 panoramic exploration in the HCC TME demonstrate a new potential clinical target for HCC assessment and intervention in the future.

You Y, Hu H, Cao C, Han Y, Tang J, Zhao W. Association between the triglyceride to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio and the risk of gestational diabetes mellitus: a second analysis based on data from a prospective cohort study. Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2023; 14:1153072. [PMID: 37576966 PMCID: PMC10415043 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2023.1153072] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/28/2023] [Accepted: 06/30/2023] [Indexed: 08/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Although there is strong evidence linking triglyceride to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (TG/HDL-C) ratio to insulin resistance and diabetes mellitus, its clinical importance in pregnant women has not been well determined. This study sought to determine the connection between the TG/HDL-C ratio in the first trimester and the eventual onset of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Methods We performed a secondary analysis of open-access data from a prospective cohort study. This present study included 590 singleton pregnant women at 10-14 weeks who visited the outpatient clinics for prenatal checks and were recorded at Incheon Seoul Women's Hospital and Seoul Metropolitan Government Seoul National University Boramae Medical Center in Korea. A binary logistic regression model, a series of sensitivity analyses, and subgroup analysis were used to examine the relationship between TG/HDL-C ratio and incident GDM. A receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was also conducted to assess the ability of the TG/HDL-C ratio to predict GDM. Results The mean age of the included individuals was 32.06 ± 3.80 years old. The mean TG/HDL-C ratio was 1.96 ± 1.09. The incidence rate of GDM was 6.27%. After adjustment for potentially confounding variables, TG/HDL-C ratio was positively associated with incident GDM (OR=1.77, 95%CI: 1.32-2.38, P=0.0001). Sensitivity analyses and subgroup analysis demonstrated the validity of the relationship between the TG/HDL-C ratio and GDM. The TG/HDL-C ratio was a good predictor of GDM, with an area under the ROC curve of 0.7863 (95% CI: 0.7090-0.8637). The optimal TG/HDL-C ratio cut-off value for detecting GDM was 2.2684, with a sensitivity of 72.97% and specificity of 75.05%. Conclusion Our results demonstrate that the elevated TG/HDL-C ratio is related to incident GDM. The TG/HDL-C ratio at 10-14 weeks could help identify pregnant women at risk for GDM and may make it possible for them to receive early and effective treatment to improve their prognosis.

Associations of apolipoproteinA1, high density lipoprotein cholesterol with hemoglobin glycation index and triglyceride-glucose index in Chinese adults with coronary artery disease. J Diabetes Complications 2023; 37:108516. [PMID: 37276657 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdiacomp.2023.108516] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2023] [Revised: 05/15/2023] [Accepted: 05/20/2023] [Indexed: 06/07/2023]
Abstract
AIMS Scarce data explored the associations of apolipoproteins with hemoglobin glycation index (HGI) and triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index. This study determined associations of serum apolipoproteinA1 (ApoA1) and high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) with HGI and TyG index in coronary artery disease (CAD) patients. METHODS A total of 10,803 CAD patients were included in this cross-sectional pilot study. Serum concentrations of ApoA1 and HDL-C were measured. Analyses of covariance were used to compare the mean differences in glucose metabolism indices (e.g., HGI, TyG index, hemoglobin glycation [HbA1c], fasting blood glucose [FBG]) among the quartiles of ApoA1, HDL-C and HDL-C/ApoA1 ratio. RESULTS In multivariate analysis, higher ApoA1, HDL-C and HDL-C/ApoA1 ratio were associated with significantly lower HGI (Quartile [Q]4 vs. Q1: -0.032 % vs. 0.017 % for ApoA1; -0.072 % vs. 0.079 % for HDL-C; -0.083 % vs. 0.085 % for HDL-C/ApoA1 ratio). Intermediate ApoA1 level was inversely associated with TyG index (Q2 vs. Q1: 296.278 vs. 306.794). The mean TyG index were significantly decreased with increased HDL-C and HDL-C/ApoA1 ratio (Q4 vs. Q1: 298.584 vs. 309.221 for HDL-C; 300.405 vs. 315.218 for HDL-C/ApoA1 ratio). Moreover, the inverse associations of ApoA1, HDL-C and HDL-C/ApoA1 ratio with HbA1c and FBG also were observed. In path analysis, the associations of HDL-C and HDL-C/ApoA1 ratio with TyG index were mediated by obesity. CONCLUSION This study provided further support for the hypoglycemic effects of ApoA1 and HDL-C in patients with CAD. Replication of these findings is warranted in further longitudinal studies in different populations.

Abstract
Metabolic-related markers are novel tools for assessing insulin resistance. Early identification of post-transplantation diabetes mellitus (PTDM) before hyperglycemia can be helpful to attenuate the rapid development of diabetic complications. This article aims to explore the convenient and inexpensive values of metabolic-related markers, including TyG, TyG-BMI, TG/HDL-C, and non-HDL-C/HDL-C for predicting PTDM. The data of 191 kidney transplant recipients in our center were collected retrospectively. The association between TyG, TyG-BMI, TG/HDL-C, non-HDL-C/HDL-C and the risk of PTDM was examined by the area under the curve and logistic regression analyses. During 6 months follow-up, 12.04% of KT recipients developed PTDM, and significantly higher values of TyG-BMI, TyG, and non-HDL-C/HDL-C was found in patients with PTDM than in nondiabetic patients, especially among the recipients taking tacrolimus, regardless of gender. The incidence of PTDM increased along with the values of TyG or TyG-BMI. After adjusting for multiple potential factors, recipients with the highest trisector of TyG or TyG-BMI still had a higher risk of PTDM morbidity. In conclusion, TyG, TyG-BMI, TG/HDL-C and non-HDL-C/HDL-C can be used as cost-effective and promising monitors to identify individuals at high risk of PTDM, and TyG-BMI was the best alternative marker among the four markers.

Abstract
PURPOSE Circulating insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) is positively associated with the risk of BC recurrence, and is more frequently dysregulated in older people, especially in those with metabolic syndrome (MetS) and obesity. This study aimed to analyze the association between IGF-1 levels and indices of MetS and insulin resistance in BC survivors. METHODS Baseline data of 563 BC survivors enrolled in the DIet and ANdrogen-5 (DIANA-5; NCT05019989) study were analyzed. RESULTS Lower circulating IGF-1 levels in subjects with MetS than in those without MetS were found. After stratification of the patients according to the diagnosis of MetS, we highlighted that the insulin was the main predictor of elevated IGF-1 levels only in subjects without MetS. Moreover, we found an interaction between high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), glycemia, and IGF-1 levels, showing a positive correlation between HDL-C and IGF-1, especially in subjects with higher values of glycemia and without a diagnosis of MetS. CONCLUSIONS While IGF-1 levels appear to be much more impaired in subjects diagnosed with MetS, in non-MetS subjects, IGF-1 levels may respond better to metabolic parameters and lifestyle changes. Further studies are needed to analyze the role of physical activity and/or dietary intervention in modulating IGF-1 concentrations in BC survivors. IMPLICATIONS FOR CANCER SURVIVORS These results could have important clinical implications for planning customized strategies aimed at modulating IGF-1 levels in BC survivors. In fact, while the IGF-1 system seems to be much more compromised in subjects with a diagnosis of MetS, in noMetS subjects, IGF-1 levels could better respond to lifestyle changes.

Interdependence of glycemic and lipid modulation in cured chronic hepatitis C patients by direct-acting antiviral agents. JOURNAL OF MICROBIOLOGY, IMMUNOLOGY, AND INFECTION = WEI MIAN YU GAN RAN ZA ZHI 2023; 56:20-30.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection causes various liver diseases and metabolic disorders. With direct-acting antiviral agents (DAAs), which effectively eradicate pan-genotypic HCV, hepatic and concomitant metabolic restorations are achieved. The study aims to evaluate the posttherapeutic benefits of lipid and glycemic homeostasis. METHODS Nighty-five chronic hepatitis C patients who achieved sustained virological response (SVR) by using DAAs were enrolled to collect plasma samples and fractionated lipoproteins at baseline, SVR, and during the post-SVR follow-ups for 6 months (pS6m) and 1 year (pS1yr). The lipid and glycemic parameters were analyzed to establish muturally modulatory relationships. RESULTS Plasma cholesterol (Chol) and glucose were elevated at SVR from baseline, whereas plasma Chol remained increased until pS1yr; however, glucose returned to the basal level. The post-SVR responses included a peak elevation of glycated hemoglobin at pS6m, a sustained elevation of triglyceride (Tg), and sustained declines in insulin, homeostasis model assessment (HOMA)-insulin resistance, and HOMA-beta levels until pS1yr. The changes in plasma Chol and high-density-lipoprotein Chol showed positive correlations, as did the plasma Tg with low-density-lipoprotein Tg and very-low-density-lipoprotein Tg per particle load. Very-low-density-lipoprotein was found to be loaded with increased Tg and Chol and underwent efficient Tg catabolism in the form of conversion into low-density-lipoprotein. Additionally, the posttherapeutic dynamics exhibited correlations of high-density-lipoprotein Chol with plasma glucose and HOMA-beta. CONCLUSION Irrespective of the baseline metabolic status, the posttherapeutic interdependent modulation of blood glycemic and lipid metabolic parameters were revealed in chronic hepatitis C patients following clearance of HCV viremia by DAA treatment.

Lipids Health Dis 2023; 22:7. [PMID: 36650520 PMCID: PMC9843936 DOI: 10.1186/s12944-023-01772-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/16/2022] [Accepted: 01/02/2023] [Indexed: 01/19/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The ratio of gamma-glutamyltransferase to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (GGT/HDL-C) has been highlighted in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) by previous studies. However, there have been fewer investigations into the correlation between the GGT/HDL-C ratio and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) incidence. Our secondary analysis used published data from a Japanese population and aimed to investigate the role of the GGT/HDL-C ratio in the incidence of T2DM. METHODS The research was a longitudinal cohort study completed by Okamura, Takuro et al. We obtained the data from the DATADRYAD website and used it for secondary analysis only. The participants recruited from a medical program called the NAGALA database received regular medical examinations and standardized questionnaires to obtain the baseline variables. Abdominal ultrasound was used to diagnose fatty liver disease. The participants were followed up, and the duration and occurrence of T2DM were documented. The GGT/HDL-C ratio evaluated at baseline served as the independent variable, while the occurrence of diabetes served as the dependent variable. RESULTS A total of 15,453 cases (8,419 men and 7,034 women) were included in our study. After adjusting for age, sex, BMI, DBP, SBP, ALT, AST, TG, TC, HbA1C, FPG, drinking status, smoking status, exercise status, and fatty liver, we observed that the GGT/HDL-C ratio was positively associated with the incidence of T2DM (hazard ratio = 1.005, 95% confidence interval: 1.000 to 1.010, P = 0.0667). The results were consistent when the GGT/HDL-C quartile was used as a categorical variable (P for trend < 0.00396). A curvilinear relationship with a threshold effect was identified between the GGT/HDL-C ratio and the risk of incident T2DM. On the left of the point, a one-unit increase in the GGT/HDL-C ratio was associated with a 1.5-fold increase in the risk of incident T2DM (hazard ratio 2.57, 95% confidence interval 1.20 to 5.49). On the right of the point, when GGT/HDL-C was greater than 6.53, their relationship became saturated. CONCLUSION The GGT/HDL-C ratio correlated with the incidence of T2DM in a curvilinear form with a threshold effect. Their positive relationship could be observed when GGT/HDL-C was less than 6.53.

Abstract
Porphobilinogen deaminase (PBGD) haploinsufficiency (acute intermittent porphyria, AIP) is characterized by neurovisceral attacks associated with high production, accumulation and urinary excretion of heme precursors, δ-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) and porphobilinogen (PBG). The estimated clinical penetrance for AIP is extremely low (<1%), therefore it is likely that other factors may play an important role in the predisposition to developing attacks. Fasting is a known triggering factor. Given the increased prevalence of insulin resistance in patients and the large urinary loss of succinyl-CoA to produce ALA and PBG, we explore the impact of reduced availability of energy metabolites in the severity of AIP pathophysiology. Classic studies found clinical improvement in patients affected by AIP associated with the administration of glucose and concomitant insulin secretion, or after hyperinsulinemia associated with diabetes. Molecular studies have confirmed that glucose and insulin administration induces a repressive effect on hepatic ALA Synthase, the first and regulatory step of the heme pathway. More recently, the insulin-mimicking α-lipoic acid has been shown to improve glucose metabolism and mitochondrial dysfunction in a hepatocyte cell line transfected with interfering RNA targeting PBGD. In AIP mice, preventive treatment with an experimental fusion protein of insulin and apolipoprotein A-I improved the disease by promoting fat mobilization in adipose tissue, increasing the metabolite bioavailability for the TCA cycle and inducing mitochondrial biogenesis in the liver. In this review, we analyze the possible mechanisms underlying abnormal hepatocellular carbohydrate homeostasis in AIP.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW For more than 20 years there has been considerable interest in the development of pharmacological inhibitors of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) by virtue of their ability to raise levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. This review endeavors to integrate existing data from prior clinical trials with emerging data to understand whether there is a pathway forward to develop CETP inhibitors to prevent cardiovascular disease. RECENT FINDINGS Large clinical trials have proved disappointing with successive reports of a failure to reduce cardiovascular events. The one clinical development program that did demonstrate a reduction in cardiovascular risk found adipose tissue accumulation and did not proceed for regulatory approval. More recent observations suggest that less CETP activity may prevent cardiovascular events, but due to lipid lowering rather than raising high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. In addition, treatment with CETP inhibitors appears to have a beneficial impact on glycemic control in the setting of diabetes. Advances in the field of CETP inhibition suggest a potentially protective effect on the risk of both cardiovascular disease and diabetes. This has implications for how to best design future clinical development programs and leaves the door open to potentially bring CETP inhibitors to the preventive cardiology clinic.

Inflammaging and body composition: New insights in diabetic and hypertensive elderly men. Exp Gerontol 2022; 170:112005.

Abstract
Age-related changes in the body's physiological responses play a critical role in systemic arterial hypertension (SAH) and type 2 Diabetes mellitus (T2DM). SAH and T2DM have clinically silent low-grade inflammation as a common risk factor. This inflammation has a relevant element, the excess of fatty tissue. In this scenario, little is known about how inflammatory markers interact with each other. Therefore, this work evaluated the interplay among anthropometric, biochemical, and inflammatory markers in the elderly with SAH and T2DM. Men aged 60-80 years old with SAH and T2DM were classified by body mass index (BMI) as eutrophic elderly (EE, 24 individuals) or overweight elderly (OE, 25 individuals). Body composition analysis was performed using bioimpedance. Blood samples were collected to perform inflammatory and biochemical evaluations. The cytokines IL-17A, IL-1β, IFN-y, TNF-α, and IL-10, were evaluated by ELISA. Triglycerides, total and fractions of cholesterol, and glucose were measured by spectrophotometry. Overweight elderly men had a higher glycemic index and an increase in most anthropometric markers, as well as higher means for all pro-inflammatory cytokines analyzed (IL-17A, IL-1β, IFN-y, and TNF-α) in comparison to their eutrophic elderly counterparts. However, there was a decrease in IL-10 anti-inflammatory cytokine and IL-10/IL-17A ratio compared to their eutrophic elderly counterparts. Although overweight elderly men have worsening inflammatory parameters, the magnitude of their correlations with anthropometric and biochemical parameters becomes less evident. The Bayesian networks highlight that in the eutrophic elderly, IL-17A and TNF-α are the cytokines most associated with interactions, and most of these interactions occur with biochemical parameters. It is worth highlighting the role of IFN-y in overweight elderly men. This cytokine influences IL-10 and TNF-α production, contributing to the inflammatory profile exacerbated in this group.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To review recent developments in the field of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) inhibition from clinical trials and genomic analyses which have the potential to impact future clinical programs. RECENT FINDINGS CETP plays an important role in remodelling of lipoproteins. A large body of evidence suggests that the presence of low CETP activity should have favourable effects on lipid profiles and cardiovascular risk. However, a number of clinical development programs of pharmacological CETP inhibitors have been disappointing with reports of toxicity and clinical futility. These findings have led many to consider abandoning CETP inhibition as a potential strategy for cardiovascular prevention. However, recent observations from genomic analyses and post hoc observations of prior clinical trials have given greater insights into the potential relationship between CETP inhibition and cardiovascular risk. This has highlighted the importance of lowering levels of atherogenic lipoproteins. SUMMARY These findings provide a pathway for ongoing clinical development of CETP inhibitors, where the potential to play an important role in the prevention of cardiovascular disease may still be possible. The lessons learned and pathway forward for new CETP inhibitors will be reviewed.

Abstract
APOB gene polymorphisms are considered risk factors for the development of dyslipidemia, hypertension, and cardiovascular disease (CVD) in several populations. In Mexico, these pathologies are frequent and studies regarding this gene are scarce. The aim of this cross-sectional study was to determined genotype, allele, and haplotype frequencies of APOB polymorphisms and performed analyses of association among the biochemical, hemodynamic, anthropometrical, and genetic variables. Blood samples were taken from 361 subjects from unselected Mexican population for biochemical analysis and for deoxyribonucleic acid extraction; besides blood pressure and body mass index (BMI) were measured. APOB polymorphisms rs934197, rs533617, rs693, and rs1042031 were genotyped by polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-restriction fragment length polymorphism; whereas, rs17240441 and c.66_67insCTGCTG were genotyped by PCR followed by electrophoresis. Genotype and allele frequencies were obtained by simple counting and deviations from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) were calculated by chi-square test. The effect of the polymorphisms on the quantitative variables was determined using analysis of variance, Student's t test, Pearson's and Spearman's correlations and multiple linear regression models. All the polymorphisms were within HWE. Frequencies of mutated alleles were highly heterogeneous: rs934197-T 33.6%, rs17240441-D 39.3%, c.66_67insCTGCTG-I 3.9%, rs533617-G 0.9%, rs693-T 40.5%, and rs1042031-G 17.3%. Chronic degenerative diseases were frequent in the studied population: overweight-obesity 55.1%, dyslipidemia 45.8%, and hypertension 23.5%. The association analyses showed that despite adjustments for age and sex the mutated alleles rs934197-T, rs1042031G, c.66_67-insCTGCTG-I, and rs533617-G, were related to lower values of BMI, total cholesterol (TC), systolic blood pressure, and diastolic blood pressure, respectively. All polymorphisms analyzed except rs533517 and c.66_67insCTGCTG showed high frequencies of the mutated allele, making them useful for association studies. Our results revealed that, APOB gene polymorphisms could be contributing to the development of several chronic diseases, such as essential hypertension, dyslipidemias, obesity, among others. However, specific studies with each pathology are needed to know the possible implications of the polymorphisms.

Abstract
Background Lipid metabolism disorder commonly happens in subjects with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) which may be linked to genetic variants of lipid metabolism-related genes. However, few studies have explored the relationship between lipid metabolism-related gene polymorphism and serum lipid profile in aging subjects with T2DM. The present study was designed to explore the impact of genetic polymorphism of cluster determinant 36 (CD36) (rs1049673, rs1054516, rs2151916), scavenger receptor class B type 1 (SCARB1) (rs5888), and major facilitator superfamily domain containing the 2a (MFSD2A) (rs12083239, rs4233508, rs12072037) on the relationship between circulating lipids in aging subjects with T2DM. Methods 205 T2DM patients and 205 age and gender matched control subjects were recruited. Information on demographic characteristics was collected by using a self-administered questionnaire. Fasting venous blood samples were taken for lipid-related gene genotyping and serum lipid profile measurement. The Chi-square test was used to compare percentage differences and to calculate P-value for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. Logistic regression and multiple linear regression were used to explore the risk or correlation between variables, and general linear model (GLM) was used to compare the means of serum lipids between the groups. Results In T2DM group, CD36 rs1054516 and MFSD2A rs12072037 were correlated with serum TC level. In control group, CD36 rs1049673 was correlated with serum HDL-C level. Meanwhile, T2DM subjects with MFSD2A rs12083239 (CG), MFSD2A rs4233508 (TT), and MFSD2A rs12072037 (AA) had higher TG level than control subjects. T2DM subjects with CD36 rs1049673 (CG, GG), CD36 rs1054516 (CT), CD36 rs2151916 (TT, CT), SCARB1 rs5888 (GG), MFSD2A rs12083239 (GG, CG), MFSD2A rs4233508 (TT), and MFSD2A rs12072037 (CA, AA) had lower HDL-C level than control subjects. T2DM subjects with MFSD2A rs12072037 (AA) had lower LDL-C level than control subjects. In dominant model, major genotype (GG) of SCARB1 gene was associated with the risk of T2DM (OR = 0.636, P = 0.032). Conclusion The genetic polymorphism of CD36 (rs1049673, rs1054516, rs2151916), SCARB1 (rs5888), and MFSD2A (rs12083239, rs4233508, rs12072037) were associated with serum lipids in T2DM subjects. The SCARB1 rs5888 major genotype (GG) was a protective factor for T2DM. Large scale cohort study is required to determine the relationship between lipid metabolism-related gene polymorphism, serum lipid profile and T2DM in aging subjects.

Abstract
Alterations in lipid and lipoprotein metabolism are factors that trigger several negative metabolic complications. Hyperlipidemia is the starting point for the development of comorbidities of the cardiovascular system, such as atherosclerosis. The search for compounds that reduce high levels of total cholesterol and triglycerides has been widely reported in several publications in the literature. Phthalimide derivatives have been extensively researched with various biological actions. In this study we evaluated the antihyperlipidemic ability of three phthalimide derivatives (FGT-2, FGT-3 and FGT-4) on a model of obesity and insulin resistance in mice. The animals were submitted to a hyperlipid diet for 60 days. On the thirtieth day they were treated with phthalimides (20 mg/kg). The positive control group was treated with Simvastatin (20 mg/kg) and the negative control received only the carboxymethylcellulose vehicle. Biochemical and histological analyzes of all groups were analyzed. The animals treated with phthalimidic derivatives had a reduction in total cholesterol, low density and very low density lipoproteins (LDL-c and VLDL-c), triglycerides and fasting glycemia when compared to the negative control group. The treated animals also showed good results when analyzing the atherogenic indexes Castelli i and II and the ratio Triglycerides/HDL-c. In the oral glucose tolerance test and in the insulin tolerance test, animals treated with phthalimides were more sensitive to the action of the hormone regulating carbohydrate uptake. In the evaluation of the transaminases (AST/ALT), the animals of the group treated with phthalimides presented a lower elevation than the other groups of the experiment, the same observed with the uric acid evaluation. Histological analyzes were performed on liver, kidney, heart and pancreas samples. The groups treated with the compounds FGT-2 and FGT3 presented discrete alterations in the liver and kidney. FGT-4 did not present histological alterations for both tissues and the three phthalimide derivatives did not cause alterations in the other organs. These results suggest that the phthalimides tested can act as antihyperlipidemic agents and have a pleiotropic action, by acting also reducing glycemia in insulin resistance model mimicking diabetes mellitus type 2. These compounds may appear as a new approach in the treatment of obesity and complications, which are multifaceted.

Dangas K, Navar AM, Kastelein JJP. The effect of CETP inhibitors on new-onset diabetes: a systematic review and meta-analysis. EUROPEAN HEART JOURNAL. CARDIOVASCULAR PHARMACOTHERAPY 2022; 8:622-632. [PMID: 35441656 PMCID: PMC9729761 DOI: 10.1093/ehjcvp/pvac025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/20/2022] [Revised: 03/16/2022] [Accepted: 04/24/2022] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite the increasing prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), limited pharmacologic options are available for prevention. Cholesteryl ester transfer protein inhibitors (CETPis) have been studied primarily as a therapy to reduce cardiovascular disease, but have also been shown to reduce new-onset diabetes. As new trial data have become available, this meta-analysis examines the effect of CETP inhibitors on new-onset diabetes and related glycaemic measures. METHODS AND RESULTS We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane databases (all articles until 4 March, 2021) for randomised controlled trials (RCT) ≥1-year duration, with at least 500 participants, comparing CETPi to placebo, and that reported data on new-onset diabetes or related glycaemic measures [haemoglobin A1C (HbA1C), fasting plasma glucose, insulin, Homeostatic Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR)]. A fixed effects meta-analysis model was applied to all eligible studies to quantify the effect of CETPi therapy on new-onset diabetes. Four RCTs (n = 75 102) were eligible for quantitative analysis of the effect of CETPi on new-onset diabetes. CETPis were found to significantly decrease the risk of new-onset diabetes by 16% (RR: 0.84; 95% CI: 0.78, 0.91; P < 0.001), with low between-trial heterogeneity (I2 = 4.1%). Glycaemic measures were also significantly improved or trended towards improvement in those with and without diabetes across most trials. CONCLUSION Although RCTs have shown mixed results regarding the impact of CETPi on cardiovascular disease, they have shown a consistent reduction in the risk of new-onset diabetes with CETPi therapy. Future trials of CETPis and potentially other HDL-raising agents should therefore specify new-onset diabetes and reversal of existing T2DM as secondary endpoints.

Abstract
AIMS To learn how high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I) are associated with fasting blood glucose (FBG). METHODS A cross-sectional study was performed in 97,801 males and 70,773 females without known disease. RESULTS The ratio of HDL-C/ApoA-I is more stable for predicting fasting glucose levels than HDL-C or ApoA-I alone. In subjects with HDL-C/ApoA-I ≤ 0.9, HDL-C/ApoA-I ratios were negatively associated with FBG levels, with similar patterns between sexes, and the associations gradually strengthened along with the deciles of FBG increase. In subjects with HDL-C/ApoA-I > 0.9, FBG remained at relatively lower levels in both sexes, while the associations between the FBG level and the HDL-C/ApoA-I ratio turned from negative in the lowest five deciles to positive in the highest two deciles of FBG levels in males. Adjustment for known confounders only slightly attenuated the above association patterns. Subpopulations with HDL-C/ApoA-I ≤ 0.9 were distributed in the higher ranges of triglyceride (TG), non-HDL-C, total cholesterol (TC) and ApoA-I levels and lower ranges of HDL-C levels. CONCLUSIONS The HDL-C/ApoA-I ratio sorted TG, non-HDL-C, TC, ApoA-I and HDL-C levels and hence might combine more coordinating metabolic characteristics of these lipids in association with blood glucose homeostasis.

Abstract
We systematically investigated the bidirectional causality among HDL cholesterol (HDL-C), LDL cholesterol (LDL-C), triglycerides (TGs), fasting insulin (FI), and glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) based on genome-wide association summary statistics of Europeans (n = 1,320,016 for lipids, 151,013 for FI, and 344,182 for HbA1c). We applied multivariable Mendelian randomization (MR) to account for the correlation among different traits and constructed a causal graph with 13 significant causal effects after adjusting for multiple testing (P < 0.0025). Remarkably, we found that the effects of lipids on glycemic traits were through FI from TGs (β = 0.06 [95% CI 0.03, 0.08] in units of 1 SD for each trait) and HDL-C (β = -0.02 [-0.03, -0.01]). On the other hand, FI had a strong negative effect on HDL-C (β = -0.15 [-0.21, -0.09]) and positive effects on TGs (β = 0.22 [0.14, 0.31]) and HbA1c (β = 0.15 [0.12, 0.19]), while HbA1c could raise LDL-C (β = 0.06 [0.03, 0.08]) and TGs (β = 0.08 [0.06, 0.10]). These estimates derived from inverse-variance weighting were robust when using different MR methods. Our results suggest that elevated FI was a strong causal factor of high TGs and low HDL-C, which in turn would further increase FI. Therefore, early control of insulin resistance is critical to reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia, and cardiovascular complications.

Abstract
AIMS Accruing evidence suggests an association between high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and incident diabetes. However, there is a paucity of data on the link between HDL-C and diabetes, especially among African Americans (AAs). We aimed to assess the association of HDL-C and its fractions with incident type 2 diabetes among AAs. METHODS We included Jackson Heart Study participants who attended visit 1 (2001-2004), were free from diabetes and were not treated with lipid-modifying medications. Incident diabetes was assessed at two subsequent-yearly visits (2 and 3). We cross-sectionally assessed the association of HDL-C and insulin resistance (IR) using multivariable linear models. We prospectively assessed the association of HDL-C and its fractions with incident diabetes using multivariable Cox regression models. RESULTS Among 2829 participants (mean age: 51.9 ± 12.4 years, 63.9% female), 487 participants (17%) developed new-onset diabetes, over a median follow-up of 8 years. In adjusted models, a higher HDL-C concentration was associated with a lower odds of IR (odds ratio [OR] per standard deviation [SD] increment: OR 0.56 [95% confidence interval, CI 0.50-0.63], p < 0.001). In adjusted models, a higher HDL-C concentration was associated with a lower risk of diabetes (HR per SD increment: 0.78 [95% CI 0.71, 0.87], p < 0.001; HR for highest vs. the lowest tertile of HDL-C was 0.56 [95% CI: 0.44, 0.71], p < 0.001). CONCLUSION In a sample of African-American adults not on any lipid-modifying therapy, high HDL-C concentrations were inversely associated with the risk of new-onset diabetes. These findings suggest a strong link between HDL-C metabolism and glucose regulation.

Abstract
Prediabetes is a clinically silent, insulin-resistant state with increased risk for the development of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Since glucose homeostasis and lipid metabolism are highly intersected and interrelated, an in-depth characterization of qualitative and quantitative abnormalities in lipoproteins could unravel the metabolic pathways underlying the progression of prediabetes to T2D and also the proneness of these patients to developing premature atherosclerosis. We investigated the HDL lipidome in 40 patients with prediabetes and compared it to that of 40 normoglycemic individuals and 40 patients with established T2D using Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Patients with prediabetes presented significant qualitative and quantitative alterations, potentially atherogenic, in HDL lipidome compared to normoglycemic characterized by higher percentages of free cholesterol and triglycerides, whereas phospholipids were lower. Glycerophospholipids and ether glycerolipids were significantly lower in prediabetic compared to normoglycemic individuals, whereas sphingolipids were significantly higher. In prediabetes, lipids were esterified with saturated rather than unsaturated fatty acids. These changes are qualitatively similar, but quantitatively milder, than those found in patients with T2D. We conclude that the detailed characterization of the HDL lipid profile bears a potential to identify patients with subtle (but still proatherogenic) abnormalities who are at high risk for development of T2D and CVD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE High-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) may be directly involved in glucose metabolism by enhancing insulin sensitivity and insulin secretion. This current study aimed to explore the association between HDL-C and the risk of diabetes mellitus (DM) in Japanese population. METHODS This retrospective cohort study was based on a publicly available DRYAD dataset. We enrolled 15,388 Japanese participants who received medical examinations from 2004 to 2015 at Murakami Memorial Hospital. Our study selected HDL-C at baseline and incident DM during follow-up as the target independent variable and the dependent variable, respectively. Cox proportional-hazards regression was used to investigate the association between HDL-C and DM, generalized additive models to identify non-linear relationships. RESULTS After adjusting for the demographic and clinical covariates, the result showed low HDL-C levels were associated with increased risk for diabetes (HR = 0.54, 95%CI (0.35, 0.82)). The results remained robust in a series of sensitive analysis. A non-linear relationship was detected between HDL-C and incident DM with an inflection point of HDL-C at 1.72 mmol/L (Log-likelihood ratio test P = 0.005). Subgroup analysis showed that a stronger association could be found in ex-smokers and current-smokers. The same trend was also seen in the community with hypertension (P for interaction = 0.010, HR = 1.324). CONCLUSION This study demonstrates a negative and non-linear relationship between HDL-C and diabetes in the Japanese population. There is a threshold effect between HDL-C and diabetes. When HDL-C is lower than 1.72 mmol/L, the decreased HDL-C levels were associated with an increased risk for diabetes.

Abstract
The risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in persons with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) increases two to four times. One of the main factors increasing cardiovascular risk is dyslipidemia, which includes abnormalities in all lipoproteins, including high-density lipoproteins (HDL). The development of DM2 is accompanied not only by a decrease in the level of HDL, but also by significant changes in their structure. This leads to the transformation of native HDL into so-called dysfunctional or diabetic HDL, which loses their antiatherogenic, cardioprotective, anti-inflammatory and anti-diabetic properties. In poorly controlled diabetes mellitus HDL can not only lose its beneficial functions, but also acquire proatherogenic, proinflammatory ones. Diabetic HDL can contribute to the accumulation of such unfavorable qualities as increased proliferation, migration, and invasion of cancer cells. Given that HDL, in addition to participation in cholesterol transport, performs important regulatory functions in the body, there is reason to assume that structural modifications of HDL (oxidation, glycation, triglyceride enrichment, loss of HDL-associated enzymes, etc.) are one of the causes of vascular complications of diabetes.

Abstract
Dyslipidemia is considered a risk factor for type 2 diabetes (T2D), yet studies with statins and candidate genes suggest that circulating lipids may protect against T2D development. Apoe-null (Apoe-/-) mouse strains develop spontaneous dyslipidemia and exhibit a wide variation in susceptibility to diet-induced T2D. We thus used Apoe-/- mice to elucidate phenotypic and genetic relationships of circulating lipids with T2D. A male F2 cohort was generated from an intercross between LP/J and BALB/cJ Apoe-/- mice and fed 12 weeks of a Western diet. Fasting, non-fasting plasma glucose, and lipid levels were measured and genotyping was performed using miniMUGA arrays. We uncovered a major QTL near 60 Mb on chromosome 15, Nhdlq18, which affected non-HDL cholesterol and triglyceride levels under both fasting and non-fasting states. This QTL was coincident with Bglu20, a QTL that modulates fasting and non-fasting glucose levels. The plasma levels of non-HDL cholesterol and triglycerides were closely correlated with the plasma glucose levels in F2 mice. Bglu20 disappeared after adjustment for non-HDL cholesterol or triglycerides. These results demonstrate a causative role for dyslipidemia in T2D development in mice.

Host Metabolic Changes during Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Infection Cause Insulin Resistance in Adult Mice. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11061646.

Abstract
Tuberculosis (TB) is a highly infectious bacterial disease that primarily attacks the lungs. TB is manifested either as latent TB infection (LTBI) or active TB disease, the latter posing a greater threat to life. The risk of developing active TB disease from LTBI is three times higher in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The association between TB and T2DM is becoming more prominent as T2DM is rapidly increasing in settings where TB is endemic. T2DM is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by elevated blood glucose, insulin resistance, and relative insulin deficiency. Insulin resistance and stress-induced hyperglycemia have been shown to be increased by TB and to return to normal upon treatment. Previously, we demonstrated that adipocytes (or fat tissue) regulate pulmonary pathology, inflammation, and Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) load in a murine model of TB. Metabolic disturbances of adipose tissue and/or adipocyte dysfunction contribute to the pathogenesis of T2DM. Thus, pathological adipocytes not only regulate pulmonary pathology, but also increase the risk for T2DM during TB infection. However, the cellular and molecular mechanisms driving the interaction between hyperglycemia, T2DM and TB remain poorly understood. Here, we report the impact of Mtb infection on the development of insulin resistance in mice fed on a regular diet (RD) versus high-fat diet (HFD) and, conversely, the effect of hyperglycemia on pulmonary pathogenesis in juvenile and adult mouse models. Overall, our study demonstrated that Mtb persists in adipose tissue and that Mtb infection induces irregular adipocyte lipolysis and loss of fat cells via different pathways in RD- and HFD-fed mice. In RD-fed mice, the levels of TNFα and HSL (hormone sensitive lipase) play an important role whereas in HFD-fed mice, ATGL (adipose triglyceride lipase) plays a major role in regulating adipocyte lipolysis and apoptosis during Mtb infection in adult mice. We also showed that Mtb infected adult mice that were fed an RD developed insulin resistance similar to infected adult mice that were overweight due to a HFD diet. Importantly, we found that a consequence of Mtb infection was increased lipid accumulation in the lungs, which altered cellular energy metabolism by inhibiting major energy signaling pathways such as insulin, AMPK and mToR. Thus, an altered balance between lipid metabolism and glucose metabolism in adipose tissue and other organs including the lungs may be an important component of the link between Mtb infection and subsequent metabolic syndrome.
