Abstract
Diabetes, a complex multisystem metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycemia, leads to complications that reduce quality of life and increase mortality. Diabetes pathophysiology includes dysfunction of beta cells, adipose tissue, skeletal muscle, and liver. Type 1 diabetes (T1D) results from immune-mediated beta cell destruction. The more prevalent type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a heterogeneous disorder characterized by varying degrees of beta cell dysfunction in concert with insulin resistance. The strong association between obesity and T2D involves pathways regulated by the central nervous system governing food intake and energy expenditure, integrating inputs from peripheral organs and the environment. The risk of developing diabetes or its complications represents interactions between genetic susceptibility and environmental factors, including the availability of nutritious food and other social determinants of health. This perspective reviews recent advances in understanding the pathophysiology and treatment of diabetes and its complications, which could alter the course of this prevalent disorder.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW What is new? Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of mortality in type 2 diabetes (T2D) individuals. Of the major risk factors for CVD, less than 10% of T2D people meet the American Diabetes Association/American Heart Association recommended goals of therapy. The present review examines how much of the absolute cardiovascular (CV) risk in type 2 diabetes patients can be explained by major CV intervention trials. RECENT FINDINGS Multiple long-term cardiovascular (CV) intervention trials have examined the effect of specific target-directed therapies on the MACE endpoint. Only one prospective study, STENO-2, has employed a multifactorial intervention comparing intensified versus conventional treatment of modifiable risk factors in T2D patients, and demonstrated a 20% absolute CV risk reduction. If the absolute CV risk reduction in these trials is added to that in the only prospective multifactorial intervention trial (STENO-2), the unexplained CV risk is 44.1%. What are the clinical implications? Potential explanations for the unaccounted-for reduction in absolute CV risk in type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients are discussed. HYPOTHESIS failure to take into account synergistic interactions between major cardiovascular risk factors is responsible for the unexplained CV risk in T2D patients. Simultaneous treatment of all major CV risk factors to recommended AHA/ADA guideline goals is required to achieve the maximum reduction in CV risk.

Abstract
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a comorbidity of a variety of other chronic, inflammatory diseases for which fibrinaloid microclots are a known accompaniment (and in some cases, a cause, with a mechanistic basis). Clots are, of course, a well-known consequence of atrial fibrillation. We here ask the question whether the fibrinaloid microclots seen in plasma or serum may in fact also be a cause of (or contributor to) the development of AF. We consider known 'risk factors' for AF, and in particular, exogenous stimuli such as infection and air pollution by particulates, both of which are known to cause AF. The external accompaniments of both bacterial (lipopolysaccharide and lipoteichoic acids) and viral (SARS-CoV-2 spike protein) infections are known to stimulate fibrinaloid microclots when added in vitro, and fibrinaloid microclots, as with other amyloid proteins, can be cytotoxic, both by inducing hypoxia/reperfusion and by other means. Strokes and thromboembolisms are also common consequences of AF. Consequently, taking a systems approach, we review the considerable evidence in detail, which leads us to suggest that it is likely that microclots may well have an aetiological role in the development of AF. This has significant mechanistic and therapeutic implications.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Biochemical alterations due to diabetes development and progress are complex and diabetes-associated injury to various tissues has been well reported. Nevertheless, a close investigation of the literature demonstrates limited coverage regarding these biochemical and molecular alterations within the inner ear and their impact on the vestibulocochlear environment. A closer look at these may reveal pharmacological targets that could alleviate the severity of disease in patients. KEY FINDINGS Tight control of glucose levels within the highly metabolic inner ear structures is crucial for their physiology and function. Impaired glucose homeostasis is well known to occur in vestibulocochlear malfunctioning. Moreover, the involvement of insulin signalling, and glucose transporters were recently confirmed in vestibulocochlear structures and are believed to play a crucial role in auditory and vestibular functions. CONCLUSION Oxidative overload, glucolipotoxicity, perturbed blood rheology, endothelial dysfunction, compromised microvascular supply, and neurotoxicity are reported in many diabetic complications such as nephropathy, retinopathy, and diabetic neuropathy and are incriminated in the disruption of blood labyrinth barrier as well as vestibulocochlear neuritis. Dysfunctional insulin signalling was recently reported in the Organ of Corti. Insulin resistance in the inner ear niche warrants further studies to verify and uncover new pharmacological targets to manage this debilitating condition better.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetes mellitus (DM) is associated with increased risk of embolic complications in non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). Impaired renal function (IRF) increases the risk of stroke as well, but this finding is not consistent among all studies. Our aim was to assess the incidence rates and risk of ischemic stroke and mortality by baseline Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) levels Among individuals with AF and DM. METHODS A prospective, historical cohort study using the Clalit Health Services electronic medical records database. Among patients with AF and DM, we compared three groups according to eGFR levels: eGFR ≥ 60, between 30 and 60, and ≤ 30 (mL/min/1.73m2). RESULTS A total of 17,567 cases were included in the final analysis; of them, 11,013 (62.7%) had eGFR ≥ 60, 4930 (28%) had eGFR between 30 and 60, and 1624 (9.24%) with eGFR ≤ 30. The incidence of stroke per 100 person-years in the three study groups was: 1.88, 2.69, and 3.34, respectively (p < 0.001). IRF was associated with increased risk of stroke in univariate analysis, but not after multivariate adjustment (Adjusted Hazard Ratio (AHR) 0.96 {95%CI; 0.74-1.25} for eGFR 30-60 and 0.96 {95%CI; 0.60-1.55} for eGFR ≤ 30). Mortality per 100 person-years was 10.78, 21.49, and 41.55, respectively (p < 0.001). IRF was associated with increased mortality risk in univariate analysis, as well as in multivariate analysis (AHR 1.08 {95%CI; 0.98-1.18} for eGFR 30-60, and 1.59 {95%CI; 1.37-1.85} for eGFR ≤ 30. CONCLUSION In patients with NVAF and DM, IRF was not associated with an increased risk of stroke, but severe IRF (eGFR ≤ 30) was associated with increased mortality risk.

Abstract
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is associated with multiple cardiovascular and noncardiovascular comorbidities and risk factors which increase the risk of thrombotic complications, such as atrial fibrillation, chronic kidney disease, arterial hypertension and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Subsequently, thromboembolic risk stratification in this population poses a great challenge. Since date from the large randomized clinical trials mostly include both patients with truly preserved EF, and those with heart failure with mildly reduced ejection fraction, there is an unmet need to characterize the patients with truly preserved EF. Considering the significant evidence gap in this area, we sought to describe the coagulation disorders and thrombotic complications in patients with HFpEF and discuss the specific thromboembolic risk factors in patients with HFpEF, with the goal to tailor risk stratification to an individual patient.

Abstract
Background and aims It is suggested that the changes in atherosclerosis happen mainly under the influence of non-fasting lipids. To date, the studies in the postprandial state were primarily performed on healthy subjects. This exploratory, cross-sectional study investigates the change in lipid profile, inflammation, and platelet activation in patients with different cardiovascular risk profiles in the postprandial state. Methods The studied population consists of 66 patients with different cardiovascular risks: patients with a history of the chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) and diabetes mellitus type 2 (DM2) (n = 20), CCS without DM2 (n = 25), and a healthy control group (n = 21). Lipid variables and markers of platelet function and inflammation were assessed during the fasting state and three and 5 h after a standardized fat meal using a standardized oral fat tolerance test (OFTT), a milkshake with 90 g of fat. Results Patients with CCS and DM2 were significantly older and had the highest BMI. All patients with CCS were on acetylsalicylic acid, and 95% of CCS patients were on high-dose statins. The absolute leukocyte and neutrophile count increased significantly in the control group during the OFTT in comparison to CCS subjects. There was a significant decrease of HDL and increase of triglycerides during the OFTT, however with no difference between groups. There was no difference in the change of platelet activity between all groups. Conclusion This study showed that OFTT leads to an increased postprandial inflammation response in healthy group compared to CCS ± DM2 while there was no change in lipid profile and platelet activity.

Abstract
Platelet hyperactivity is one of the key factors implicated in the development and progression of diabetic vascular complications. Activated platelets mediate leukocyte recruitment that further enhances inflammatory responses in vascular wall ultimately resulting in atherosclerotic complications. Since vitamin D insufficiency is highly prevalent in diabetics, we aimed to evaluate the effect of three dosage forms of vitamin D supplementation on lipid profile, NF-κB, platelet aggregation, and platelet calcium content in type 2 diabetic patients. Type 2 diabetic patients were randomized to receive daily (4000 IU/day) or weekly (50 000 IU/week) oral vitamin D3 for 3 months. Another group received a single parenteral dose (300 000 IU) of vitamin D3, whereas the control group received their antidiabetic drug(s) alone. Serum 25(OH)D, total cholesterol, triglycerides, high- and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, NF-κB, and platelet aggregation were measured at the beginning and 3 months after vitamin D supplementation. Platelet calcium content was evaluated by measuring the fluorescence intensity of Rhod-2-stained platelets by confocal fluorescence microscopy. Results showed that serum 25(OH)D3 levels significantly increased in all vitamin D3-treated groups. However, the mean level for parenteral treated group was significantly lower than oral-treated groups. Oral and parenteral treatment were also able to decrease NF-κB level, platelet aggregation, and platelet calcium content. However, both oral doses of vitamin D3 were superior to the single parenteral dose. In conclusion, restoring normal levels of vitamin D is an important determinant to maintain normal platelet function and reduce inflammation. Nevertheless, further long-term studies are still needed.

Abstract
Chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) is a common neurosurgical condition. Surgical evacuation has remained the primary treatment despite many advancements in the endovascular field. Regardless, recurrence requiring reoperation is commonly observed during the postoperative follow-up. Herein, we aimed to investigate risk factors for recurrence after surgical evacuation. A review of MEDLINE, EMBASE, Web of Science, and Scopus was conducted using the designed search string. Studies were reviewed based on the predefined eligibility criteria. Data regarding sixty potential risk factors along with operational information were extracted for analysis. A meta-analysis using the random-effect model was conducted, and each risk factor affecting the postoperative recurrence of CSDH was then evaluated and graded. A total of 198 records met the eligibility criteria. A total number of 8523 patients with recurrent CSDH and 56,096 with non-recurrent CSDH were included in the study. The recurrence rate after surgical evacuation was 12%. Fifteen preoperative, nine radiologic, four hematoma-related, and three operative and postoperative factors were associated with recurrence. Risk factors associated with recurrence after surgical evacuation are important in neurosurgical decision-making and treatment planning. Found risk factors in this study may be used as the basis for pre-operative risk assessment to choose patients who would benefit the most from surgical evacuation.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a complex chronic metabolic disease characterized by hyperglycemia and various complications. According to the different pathophysiological mechanisms, these complications can be classified as microvascular or macrovascular complications, which have long-term negative effects on vital organs such as the eyes, kidneys, heart, and brain, and lead to increased patient mortality. Diabetes mellitus is a major global health issue, and its incidence and prevalence have increased significantly in recent years. Moreover, the incidence is expected to continue to rise as more people adopt a Western lifestyle and diet. Thus, it is essential to understand the epidemiology, pathogenesis, risk factors, and treatment of vascular complications to aid patients in managing the disease effectively. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the literature to clarify the above content. Furthermore, this paper also delves into the correlation between novel risk factors, such as long noncoding RNAs, gut microbiota, and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, with diabetic vascular complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Case reports of symmetric digital gangrene resulting from high-dose vasopressors use in patients with alcoholic ketoacidosis, leading to cardiac arrest, are rare. To date, no specific treatment method for autolysis or surgical amputation or guidelines for determining the level of amputation have been established. CASE SUMMARY In this case report, we describe a treatment method that effectively preserved the function of fingers by surgical treatment under local anesthesia with a minimum operative time, while also preserving finger length to the maximum possible extent. CONCLUSION Our approach may contribute to improved postoperative quality of life by preserving finger length.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetes was considered as a risk factor for venous thromboembolism (VTE), but conflicting findings have been reported from observational studies. This study aimed at investigating the causal associations of type 1 and type 2 diabetes with VTE, including deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE). METHODS We designed a bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis by using summary-level data from large genome-wide association studies performed in European individuals. Inverse variance weighting with multiplicative random effect method was used to obtain the primary causal estimates, and weighted median, weighted mode, and MR egger regression were replenished as sensitivity analyses to test the robustness of the results. RESULTS We found no significant causal effects of type 1 diabetes on VTE (odds ratio [OR]: 0.98, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.96-1.00, p = 0.043), DVT (OR: 0.98, 95% CI: 0.95-1.00, p = 0.102), and PE (OR: 0.98, 95% CI: 0.96-1.01, p = 0.160). Similarly, no significant associations of type 2 diabetes with VTE (OR: 0.97, 95% CI: 0.91-1.03, p = 0.291), DVT (OR: 0.96, 95% CI: 0.89-1.03, p = 0.255), and PE (OR: 0.97, 95% CI: 0.90-1.04, p = 0.358) were also observed. Results from multivariable MR analysis were consistent with the findings in univariable analysis. In the other direction, the results showed no significant causal effects of VTE on type 1 and type 2 diabetes. CONCLUSION This MR analysis demonstrated no significant causal associations of type 1 and type 2 diabetes with VTE in both directions, in conflict with previous observational studies reporting positive association, which provided clues for understanding the underlying pathogenesis of diabetes and VTE.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Angiographic high thrombus burden (HTB) is associated with increased adverse cardiovascular events in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). HbA1c and C-peptide are two interrelated bioactive markers that affect many cardiovascular pathways. HbA1c exhibits prothrombogenic properties, while C-peptide, in contrast, exhibits antithrombogenic effects. In this study, we aimed to demonstrate the value of combining these two biomarkers in a single fraction in predicting HTB and short-term mortality in patients with STEMI. METHODS 1202 patients who underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) for STEMI were retrospectively included in this study. The study population was divided into thrombus burden (TB) groups and compared in terms of basic clinical demographics, laboratory parameters and HbA1c/C-peptide ratios (HCR). In addition, short-term mortality of the study population was compared according to HCR and TB categories. RESULTS HCR values were significantly higher in the HTB group than in the LTB group (3.5 ± 1.2 vs. 2.0 ± 1.1; P < 0.001; respectively). In the multivariable regression analysis, HCR was determined as an independent predictor of HTB both as a continuous variable [odds ratio (OR): 2.377; confidence interval (CI): 2.090-2.704; P < 0.001] and as a categorical variable (OR: 5.492; CI: 4.115-7.331; P < 0.001). In the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis, HCR predicted HTB with 73% sensitivity and 72% specificity, and furthermore, HCR's predictive value for HTB was superior to HbA1c and C-peptide. The Kaplan-Meier cumulative survival curve showed that short-term mortality increased at HTB. In addition, HCR strongly predicted short-term mortality in Cox regression analysis. CONCLUSIONS In conclusion, HCR is closely associated with HTB and short-term mortality in STEMI patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Psoriasis (PsO) is an immune-mediated dermatosis and systemic inflammatory condition that can affect the skin, joints, and other organs and tissues with a range of comorbidities. The activation of proinflammatory cytokines is the primary cause of the development of skin lesions in PsO. Patients with PsO have a higher risk of developing cardiovascular metabolic comorbidities; among these is the metabolic syndrome (MetS). Particularly, MetS is characterized by abdominal obesity, hypertension, hyperglycemia, and hyperlipidemia, has been linked to PsO. The connection between PsO and MetS is believed to be caused by PsO generating systemic inflammation, which then results in elevated inflammatory adipokines, endothelial dysfunction, and insulin resistance. Micro RNA-377 and long noncoding RNA taurine upregulated 1 (TUG1) are both involved in the control of a variety of inflammatory disorders in humans and can be employed as biomarkers for the diagnosis and prognosis of psoriasis. The aim of the present study is to establish a panel of biomarkers for the early diagnosis of MetS incidence in psoriasis and thereby, reducing its lethal consequences.
Results
In this study, 120 patients: 40 psoriatic patients, 40 psoriatic patients with metabolic syndrome, and 40 healthy subjects were conducted. Expressions of Long noncoding RNA Taurine Upregulated Gene-1 (TUG1), miRNA-377 and Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor-γ (PPAR-γ) were assessed in tissue lesion by real-time PCR. ELISA technique was carried out for the detection of serum levels of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) and transforming growth factor β (TGFβ). Moreover, miRNA-377 expression was significantly elevated with the simultaneous down-regulation of both TUG-1 and PPAR-γ in PsO-MetS group when compared to those of PsO and control groups. Furthermore, PAI-1 and TGFβ levels were higher in PsO-MetS than PsO.
Conclusions
The dysregulated levels of TUG-1, miRNA-377, PPAR-γ, PAI-1, and TGFβ, biomarkers may provide information about their potential role in the emergence of MetS in psoriasis patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The association of the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index with severe consciousness disturbance and in-hospital mortality in patients with cerebrovascular disease in the intensive care unit (ICU) is unclear. This study aimed to investigate the TyG index's predictive ability on the severity of impaired consciousness and in-hospital mortality in patients with cerebrovascular disease in the ICU. METHOD Patients diagnosed with non-traumatic cerebral hemorrhage and cerebral infarction were extracted from the MIMIC-IV database and analyzed as two cohorts. The association between the TyG index and the severity of patients' impairment of consciousness and in-hospital mortality was analyzed using logistic regression models. Using restricted cubic spline curves, we analyzed potential nonlinear relationships between TyG indices and outcome indicators. receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were utilized to evaluate the predictive ability of the TyG index for outcome indicators. RESULT The study's last two cohorts comprised 537 patients with traumatic cerebral hemorrhage and 872 patients with cerebral infarction. TyG index was a significant predictor of the severity of impaired consciousness and in-hospital mortality in patients with cerebrovascular disease, as determined by logistic regression. The risk of severe consciousness impairment and in-hospital mortality increased roughly linearly with increasing TyG index. CONCLUSION The TyG index was found to be a significant predictor for severe impairment of consciousness and in-hospital death in patients with cerebrovascular disease in the ICU, and it provides some predictive value for the severity of consciousness disturbances and in-hospital mortality in cerebrovascular disease patients.

Abstract
The thrombotic mechanism, being common to peripheral arterial disease (PAD), acute myocardial infarction (AMI), and stroke, is responsible for the highest number of deaths in the western world. However, while much has been done for the prevention, early diagnosis, therapy of AMI and stroke, the same cannot be said for PAD, which is a negative prognostic indicator for cardiovascular death. Acute limb ischemia (ALI) and chronic limb ischemia (CLI) are the most severe manifestations of PAD. They both are defined by the presence of PAD, rest pain, gangrene, or ulceration and we consider ALI if symptoms last less than 2 weeks and CLI if they last more than 2 weeks. The most frequent causes are certainly atherosclerotic and embolic mechanisms and, to a lesser extent, traumatic or surgical mechanisms. From a pathophysiological point of view, atherosclerotic, thromboembolic, inflammatory mechanisms are implicated. ALI is a medical emergency that puts both limb and the patient's life at risk. In patients over age 80 undergoing surgery, mortality remains high reaching approximately 40% as well as amputation approximately 11%. The purpose of this paper is to summarize the scientific evidence on the possibilities of primary and secondary prevention of ALI and to raise awareness among doctors involved in the management of ALI, in particular by describing the central role of the general practitioner.

Abstract
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is the third most common cause of death worldwide. The incidence of VTE varies according to different countries, ranging from 1-2 per 1000 person-years in Western Countries, while it is lower in Eastern Countries (<1 per 1000 person-years). Many risk factors have been identified in patients developing VTE, but the relative contribution of each risk factor to thrombotic risk, as well as pathogenetic mechanisms, have not been fully described. Herewith, we provide a comprehensive review of the most common risk factors for VTE, including male sex, diabetes, obesity, smoking, Factor V Leiden, Prothrombin G20210A Gene Mutation, Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor-1, oral contraceptives and hormonal replacement, long-haul flight, residual venous thrombosis, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection, trauma and fractures, pregnancy, immobilization, antiphospholipid syndrome, surgery and cancer. Regarding the latter, the incidence of VTE seems highest in pancreatic, liver and non-small cells lung cancer (>70 per 1000 person-years) and lowest in breast, melanoma and prostate cancer (<20 per 1000 person-years). In this comprehensive review, we summarized the prevalence of different risk factors for VTE and the potential molecular mechanisms/pathogenetic mediators leading to VTE.

Ticagrelor Aspirin vs Clopidogrel Aspirin in CYP2C19 Loss-of-Function Carriers With Minor Stroke or TIA Stratified by Risk Profile. Neurology 2023; 100:e497-e504. [PMID: 36535779 PMCID: PMC9931078 DOI: 10.1212/wnl.0000000000201454] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2022] [Accepted: 09/08/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Genotype data of the Clopidogrel with Aspirin in Acute Minor Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack (CHANCE) trial showed that efficacy of clopidogrel aspirin depended on CYP2C19 genotype and risk profile. A stratification of patients who carried CYP2C19 loss-of-function (LOF) alleles according to the risk of recurrent stroke may be important for selecting optimal antiplatelet therapy. We aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of ticagrelor aspirin with clopidogrel aspirin in CYP2C19 LOF carriers with minor stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) stratified by risk profile. METHODS Data were obtained from Ticagrelor or Clopidogrel with Aspirin in High-Risk Patients with Acute Nondisabling Cerebrovascular Events II (CHANCE-2) trial. Low-risk and high-risk profiles were defined by Essen Stroke Risk Score (ESRS) (<3 [low risk] and ≥3 [high risk], respectively). RESULTS A total of 6,412 CYP2C19 LOF carriers were enrolled; ticagrelor aspirin was associated with a reduced risk of primary outcome (new stroke within 90-day follow-up) in patients at low risk (hazard ratio [HR], 0.65; 95% CI, 0.48-0.82), but not in those at high risk (HR, 0.97; 95% CI, 0.73-1.29), compared with clopidogrel aspirin (p = 0.02 for interaction). Secondary outcomes generally went in the same direction as the primary outcome. The primary safety outcome of severe or moderate bleeding did not differ based on risk profile (p = 0.24 for interaction), although the incidence of total bleeding was greater with ticagrelor aspirin than with clopidogrel aspirin among patients at low risk (p < 0.01 for interaction). Analysis in the per-protocol population yielded similar results. DISCUSSION This post hoc analysis of CHANCE-2 trial showed that CYP2C19 LOF carriers with minor stroke or TIA at low risk of recurrent stroke received a greater benefit from ticagrelor aspirin than from clopidogrel aspirin. CLASSIFICATION OF EVIDENCE This study provides Class II evidence that CYP2C19 LOF carriers with minor stroke or TIA at low risk, but not at high risk, of recurrent stroke (by the ESRS) received a greater benefit from ticagrelor aspirin than from clopidogrel aspirin.

Abstract
Phospholipids are lipids that constitute the basic structure of cell membranes. In-depth research has shown that in addition to supporting cell structures, phospholipids participate in multiple cellular processes, including promoting cell signal transduction, guiding protein translocation, activating enzymatic activity, and eliminating dysfunctional/redundant organelles/cells. Diabetes is a chronic metabolic disease with a complicated etiology and pathology. Studies have shown that the level of certain phospholipids, for example, the ratio of phosphatidylcholine (PC) to phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) in liver tissue, is negatively associated with insulin sensitivity. In addition, PS is a phospholipid exhibiting extensive cellular functions in diabetes. For this review, we analyzed many PS studies focusing on diabetes and insulin sensitivity in recent years and found that PS participates in controlling insulin secretion, regulating insulin signaling transduction, and participating in the progression of diabetic complications by mediating coagulation disorders in the microvasculature or targeting mitochondria. Moreover, PS supplements in food and PS-containing liposomes have been shown to protect against type 1 and type 2 diabetes (T1D and T2D, respectively) in animal studies. Therefore, by summarizing the regulatory roles played by PS in diabetes and the potential of successfully using PS or PS-containing liposomes for diabetic therapy, we hope to provide new ideas for further research into the mechanisms of diabetes and for drug development for treating diabetes and its complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) is significantly enhanced in insulin resistance and inflammation and ascribed as a proinflammatory marker. This study aimed to compare and correlate salivary and serum PAI-1 and alpha 2-macroglobulin (α2MG) in patients with periodontitis with and without type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and also appraise the consequence of periodontal treatment on these biomarkers. METHODS Sixty subjects enlisted were split into two groups; Group 1 consisted of 30 systemically healthy subjects with Stage II and III, generalized, Grade B, C periodontitis while Group 2 consisted of 30 patients with periodontitis and well-controlled T2DM (PDM). Salivary and serum PAI-1 and α2MG levels were estimated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and allied with clinical parameters before and 3 months post non-surgical periodontal therapy (NSPT). Data were statistically analyzed using student t-test and Spearman correlation. RESULTS Analogous improvements in clinical periodontal markers were experienced in both groups after initial periodontal treatment. Estimates of salivary and serum PAI-1 and α2MG were higher among the PDM group compared with periodontitis alone at baseline. Significant diminution in estimates of biomarkers was noted 3 months after NSPT. In the PDM group, there was also an improvement in glycemic control. CONCLUSIONS NSPT positively impacted both groups. Noteworthy expression of salivary and serum PAI-1 in patients with periodontitis and diabetes insinuates a possible role of the adipokine in periodontal inflammation and glucose level regulation. Salivary PAI-1 could thus be used as a diagnostic biomarker to detect disease activity and to track periodontal therapy response.

The Association of Glucose Control with Circulating Levels of Red Blood Cell-Derived Vesicles in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Patients with Atrial Fibrillation. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 24:ijms24010729.

Abstract
Hyperglycemia is a trigger for structural alteration of red blood cells (RBCs) and their ability to release extracellular vesicles (EVs). The aim of the study was to elucidate whether glucose control in T2DM patients with concomitant HF and AF affects a circulating number of RBC-derived EVs. We prospectively included 417 T2DM patients with HF, 51 of them had atrial fibrillation and 25 healthy volunteers and 30 T2DM non-HF individuals. Clinical assessment, echocardiography examination and biomarker measures were performed at the baseline of the study. RBC-derived EVs were determined as CD235a+ PS+ particles by flow cytometry. NT-proBNP levels were measured by ELISA. AF patients with glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) < 6.9% had lower levels of CD235a+ PS+ RBC-derived vesicles than those with HbA1c ≥ 7.0%. There were no significant differences in number of CD235a+ PS+ RBC-derived vesicles between patients in entire cohort and in non-AF sub-cohort with HbA1c < 6.9% and HbA1c ≥ 7.0%, respectively. Multivariate linear regression yielded that CD235a+ PS+ RBC-derived vesicles ≥ 545 particles in µL (OR = 1.06; 95% CI = 1.01−1.11, p = 0.044) independently predicted HbA1c ≥ 7.0%. Elevated levels of CD235a+ PS+ RBC-derived EVs independently predicted poor glycaemia control in T2DM patients with HF and AF.

Abstract
PURPOSE To retrospectively investigate the epicardial fat volume with multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) and other risk factors for the prevalence of three-vessel coronary lesion. MATERIALS AND METHODS MDCT was performed on 424 subjects with or without three-vessel coronary lesion. Blood was tested for triglyceride, high-density lipoprotein (HDL), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), apolipoprotein A (ApoA), apolipoprotein B (ApoB), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), lipoprotein a, and fasting blood glucose. RESULTS Among all the subjects, a significant (P < 0.05) negative linear correlation existed between age and ALT or ALT/AST. The epicardial fat had a significant (P < 0.05) negative linear correlation with HDL and Apo A but a positive correlation with age and ApoB/ApoA. The epicardial fat volume and the fasting blood glucose were significantly (P = 0.001) greater in the patients than in the control group, whereas HDL and Apo A were both significantly (P < 0.0001) smaller in the patients than in the control groups. A significant prediction value (P < 0.05) existed in age increase, male gender, epicardial fat increase, low HDL, high LDL, and elevated fasting blood glucose. CONCLUSION Three-vessel coronary lesions are more prevalent in subjects with greater volume of epicardial fat and in male gender.

Cardiovasc Diabetol 2022; 21:226. [PMID: 36324146 PMCID: PMC9632026 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-022-01664-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2022] [Accepted: 10/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The triglyceride glucose (TyG) index, which is a new surrogate indicator of insulin resistance (IR), is thought to be associated with many diseases, such as cardiovascular disease, but its relationship with cerebrovascular disease is still controversial. METHODS The PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Web of Science and Medline databases were searched until March 2022 to evaluate the association between the TyG index and cerebrovascular disease risk. A random‒effects model was used to calculate the effect estimates and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). RESULTS A total of 19 cohort studies and 10 case‒control/cross‒sectional studies were included in our study, which included 11,944,688 participants. Compared with a low TyG index, a higher TyG index increased the risk of cerebrovascular disease (RR/HR = 1.22, 95% CI [1.14, 1.30], P< 0.001; OR = 1.15, 95% CI [1.07, 1.23], P< 0.001). Furthermore, the results of the dose-response analysis of the cohort study demonstrated that the risk of cerebrovascular disease increased by 1.19 times per 1 mg/dl increment of the TyG index (relative risk = 1.19, 95% CI [1.13,1.25], P< 0.001). CONCLUSION TyG index is related to cerebrovascular disease. More data and basic research are needed to confirm the association.

Abstract
AIMS Rheopheresis is an extracorporeal haematotherapy that improves haemorheological status by filtering proteins that enhance blood viscosity. It also has anti-inflammatory effects by removing inflammatory cytokines. Our study aims to examine the effects of rheopheresis on the endothelial status in diabetic lower extremity ulceration. METHODS In vitro experiments were performed in a HUVEC model to mimic hyperglycaemic stress. We determined the changes in gene expression levels of IL-6, IL-8, TNF-alpha, endothelin convertase enzyme, ET-1, and NO synthase, as well as the ROS and intracellular GSH levels upon hyperglycaemia. In in vivo studies, two rheopheresis procedures were performed on seven patients with diabetic lower extremity ulceration with hyperviscosity, and we measured the changes in plasma concentrations of ET-1, TXB2, SOD enzyme activity, and extracellular components of the glutathione pool depending on treatments. RESULTS Our results showed that hyperglycaemia increases endothelial expression of inflammatory cytokines, ET-1, and endothelin convertase enzyme, while NO synthase was decreased. As a result of rheopheresis, we observed decreased ET-1 and TXB2 concentrations in the plasma and beneficial changes in the parameters of the glutathione pool. CONCLUSION To summarize our results, hyperglycaemia-induced oxidative stress and endothelial inflammation can be moderated by rheopheresis in diabetic lower extremity ulceration with hyperviscosity.

Prognostic Significance of Plasma Insulin Level for Deep Venous Thrombosis in Patients with Severe Traumatic Brain Injury in Critical Care. Neurocrit Care 2022; 38:263-278. [PMID: 36114315 DOI: 10.1007/s12028-022-01588-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/25/2022] [Accepted: 08/10/2022] [Indexed: 10/14/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Whether insulin resistance underlies deep venous thrombosis (DVT) development in patients with severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) is unclear. In this study, the association between plasma insulin levels and DVT was analyzed in patients with severe TBI. METHODS A prospective observational study of 73 patients measured insulin, glucose, glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1), inflammatory factors, and hematological profiles within four preset times during the first 14 days after TBI. Ultrasonic surveillance of DVT was tracked. Two-way analysis of variance was used to determine the factors that discriminated between patients with and without DVT or with and without insulin therapy. Partial correlations of insulin level with all the variables were conducted separately in patients with DVT or patients without DVT. Factors associated with DVT were analyzed by multivariable logistic regression. Neurological outcomes 6 months after TBI were assessed. RESULTS Among patients with a mean (± standard deviation) age of 53 (± 16 years), DVT developed in 20 patients (27%) on median 10.4 days (range 4-22), with higher Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II scores but similar Sequential Organ Failure Assessment scores and TBI severity. Patients with DVT were more likely to receive insulin therapy than patients without DVT (60% vs. 28%; P = 0.012); hence, they had higher 14-day insulin levels. However, insulin levels were comparable between patients with DVT and patients without DVT in the subgroups of patients with insulin therapy (n = 27) and patients without insulin therapy (n = 46). The platelet profile significantly discriminated between patients with and without DVT. Surprisingly, none of the coagulation profiles, blood cell counts, or inflammatory mediators differed between the two groups. Patients with insulin therapy had significantly higher insulin (P = 0.006), glucose (P < 0.001), and GLP-1 (P = 0.01) levels and were more likely to develop DVT (60% vs. 15%; P < 0.001) along with concomitant platelet depletion. Insulin levels correlated with glucose, GLP-1 levels, and platelet count exclusively in patients without DVT. Conversely, in patients with DVT, insulin correlated negatively with GLP-1 levels (P = 0.016). Age (P = 0.01) and elevated insulin levels at days 4-7 (P = 0.04) were independently associated with DVT. Patients with insulin therapy also showed worse Glasgow Outcome Scale scores (P = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Elevated insulin levels in the first 14 days after TBI may indicate insulin resistance, which is associated with platelet hyperactivity, and thus increasing the risk of DVT.

Abstract
Background The main inhibitor of the fibrinolytic system, Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor -1 (PAI-1), irreversibly binds tissue-type Plasminogen Activator (t-PA) and thereby inhibits the protective action of tPA against thrombus formation. Elevated levels of plasma PAI-1 are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular events and are observed in subjects with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and obesity. Platelets contain the majority of PAI-1 present in blood and exhibit the ability to synthesis active PAI-1. Diabetic platelets are known to be hyper-reactive and larger in size; however, whether these features affect their contribution to the elevated levels of plasma PAI-1 in T2D is not established. Objectives To characterize the PAI-1 antigen content and the mRNA expression in platelets from T2D subjects compared to obese and lean control subjects, in order to elucidate the role of platelet PAI-1 in T2D. Methods Nine subjects with T2D and obesity were recruited from Primary Care Centers together with 15 healthy control subjects (8 lean subjects and 7 with obesity). PAI-1 antigen levels in plasma, serum and platelets were determined by ELISA, and PAI-1 mRNA expression was analyzed by qPCR. Results There was no significant difference in PAI-1 mRNA expression or PAI-1 antigen in platelets in T2D subject in comparison to obese and lean control subjects. An elevated level of plasma PAI-1 was seen in both T2D and obese subjects. PAI-1 gene expression was significantly higher in both obese groups compared to lean. Conclusion Similar levels of protein and mRNA expression of PAI-1 in platelets from T2D, obese and lean subjects indicate a limited role of platelets for the elevated plasma PAI-1 levels. However, an increased synthesis rate of mRNA transcripts in platelets from T2D and an increased release of PAI-1 could also result in similar mRNA and protein levels. Hence, synthesis and release rates of PAI-1 from platelets in T2D and obesity need to be investigated to further elucidate the role of platelets in obesity and T2D.

Abstract
Peripheral artery disease (PAD) increases the risk of diabetes, while diabetes increases the risk of PAD, and certain symptoms in each disease increase the risk of contracting the other. This review aims to shed light on this harmful interplay between the two disorders, with an emphasis on the phenotype of a patient with both diabetes and PAD, and whether treatment should be individualized in this high-risk population. In addition, current guideline recommendations for the treatment of PAD were analyzed, in an attempt to establish the differences and evidence gaps across a population suffering from these two interconnected disorders.

Abstract
Endothelial cells form the innermost layer of all blood vessels and are the only vascular component that remains throughout all vascular segments. The cerebral vasculature has several unique properties not found in the peripheral circulation; this requires that the cerebral endothelium be considered as a unique entity. Cerebral endothelial cells perform several functions vital for brain health. The cerebral vasculature is responsible for protecting the brain from external threats carried in the blood. The endothelial cells are central to this requirement as they form the basis of the blood-brain barrier. The endothelium also regulates fibrinolysis, thrombosis, platelet activation, vascular permeability, metabolism, catabolism, inflammation, and white cell trafficking. Endothelial cells regulate the changes in vascular structure caused by angiogenesis and artery remodeling. Further, the endothelium contributes to vascular tone, allowing proper perfusion of the brain which has high energy demands and no energy stores. In this article, we discuss the basic anatomy and physiology of the cerebral endothelium. Where appropriate, we discuss the detrimental effects of high blood pressure on the cerebral endothelium and the contribution of cerebrovascular disease endothelial dysfunction and dementia. © 2022 American Physiological Society.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate whether the prothrombotic state (PTS), calcium deficiency and iron deficiency anemia (IDA) in early pregnancy is associated with the risk of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). METHODS We conducted a retrospective cohort study, including consecutive pregnant women tested for PTS, calcium deficiency and IDA before 20 weeks' gestation between September 1, 2017 and March 21, 2021. For routine prenatal care, pregnant women underwent a 75-g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) to make a GDM diagnosis during 24-28 weeks of gestation. Testing data and relevant clinical information were obtained from Shenzhen Baoan Women's and Children's Hospital. To estimate GDM risk of exposures (PTS, calcium deficiency and IDA) in early pregnancy, we used logistic regression to obtain odds ratio (OR) adjusted for maternal age, parity, family history of diabetes and pre-pregnancy body mass index. RESULTS The cohort included 8396 pregnant women with complete data of exposures and GDM outcomes. Baseline characteristics were not comparable between exposure and control groups. PTS (adjusted OR 2.38, 95% CI 1.61-3.52) or calcium deficiency (adjusted OR 1.23, 95% CI 1.02-1.49) in early pregnancy was independently associated with increased GDM risk after adjusting covariates. There was no significant association between IDA status and GDM risk (adjusted OR 0.86, 95% CI 0.63-1.18). CONCLUSIONS PTS and calcium deficiency in early pregnancy may be independent risk factors of GDM. These findings need further validation in well-designed prospective cohorts.

Abstract
Background Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) affects the occurrence and prognosis of acute ischemic stroke (AIS). However, the impact of diabetes on thrombus characteristics is unclear. The relationship between the composition and ultrastructure of clots and DM with admission hyperglycemia was investigated. Methods Consecutive patients with AIS who underwent endovascular thrombus retrieval between June 2017 and May 2021 were recruited. The thrombus composition and ultrastructure were evaluated using Martius scarlet blue stain and scanning electron microscopy. Clot perviousness was evaluated via thrombus attenuation increase on computed tomography angiography (CTA) versus non-contrast CT. Patients with admission hyperglycemia DM (ahDM) and those without DM (nonDM) were compared in terms of thrombus composition, ultrastructure, and perviousness. Results On admission, higher NIHSS scores (17 vs. 12, respectively, p = 0.015) was evident in ahDM patients. After the 90-day follow-up, the rates of excellent outcomes (mRS 0–1) were lower in patients with ahDM (16.6%, p = 0.038), but functional independence (mRS 0–2) and handicapped (mRS 3–5) were comparable between patients with ahDM and nonDM. The outcome of mortality was higher in patients with ahDM (33.3%, p = 0.046) than in nonDM patients. Clots in patients with ahDM had more fibrin (39.4% vs. 25.0%, respectively, p = 0.007), fewer erythrocyte components (21.2% vs. 41.5%, respectively, p = 0.043), equivalent platelet fraction (27.7% vs. 24.6%, respectively, p = 0.587), and higher WBC counts (4.6% vs. 3.3%, respectively, p = 0.004) than in nonDM patients. The percentage of polyhedral erythrocytes in thrombi was significantly higher in ahDM patients than in nonDM patients (68.9% vs. 45.6%, respectively, p = 0.007). The proportion of pervious clots was higher in patients nonDM than in patients with ahDM (82.61% vs. 40%, respectively, p = 0.026). Conclusion Patients with ahDM presented with greater stroke severity on admission and poorer functional outcomes after 3 months. Clots in patients with ahDM had more fibrin, leucocytes, and fewer erythrocyte components than in patients nonDM. The content of polyhedral erythrocytes and impervious clots proportion were significantly higher in thrombi of patients with AIS and ahDM. Further research is required to validate these findings.

Abstract
Blood flow restriction training (BFRT) is a modality with growing interest in the last decade and has been recognized as a critical tool in rehabilitation medicine, athletic and clinical populations. Besides its potential for positive benefits, BFRT has the capability to induce adverse responses. BFRT may evoke increased blood pressure, abnormal cardiovascular responses and impact vascular health. Furthermore, some important concerns with the use of BFRT exists for individuals with established cardiovascular disease (e.g., hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and chronic kidney disease patients). In addition, considering the potential risks of thrombosis promoted by BFRT in medically compromised populations, BFRT use warrants caution for patients that already display impaired blood coagulability, loss of antithrombotic mechanisms in the vessel wall, and stasis caused by immobility (e.g., COVID-19 patients, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, chronic kidney disease, cardiovascular disease, orthopedic post-surgery, anabolic steroid and ergogenic substance users, rheumatoid arthritis, and pregnant/postpartum women). To avoid untoward outcomes and ensure that BFRT is properly used, efficacy endpoints such as a questionnaire for risk stratification involving a review of the patient’s medical history, signs, and symptoms indicative of underlying pathology is strongly advised. Here we present a model for BFRT pre-participation screening to theoretically reduce risk by excluding people with comorbidities or medically complex histories that could unnecessarily heighten intra- and/or post-exercise occurrence of adverse events. We propose this risk stratification tool as a framework to allow clinicians to use their knowledge, skills and expertise to assess and manage any risks related to the delivery of an appropriate BFRT exercise program. The questionnaires for risk stratification are adapted to guide clinicians for the referral, assessment, and suggestion of other modalities/approaches if/when necessary. Finally, the risk stratification might serve as a guideline for clinical protocols and future randomized controlled trial studies.

J Pers Med 2022; 12:jpm12020302. [PMID: 35207789 PMCID: PMC8880712 DOI: 10.3390/jpm12020302] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2022] [Revised: 02/11/2022] [Accepted: 02/14/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Previous studies in Western countries have shown that a hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state (HHS) is associated with an increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE); in these cases, prophylactic anticoagulant treatment is suggested. However, the association between HHS and VTE in Asian populations remains undetermined. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate whether HHS is associated with an increased risk of VTE in diabetic Taiwanese patients. Methods: This nationwide, population-based, retrospective cohort study was conducted using the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database. We enrolled a total of 4,723,607 admission records of patients with diabetes diagnosed with one or more of seven common diseases (pneumonia, urinary tract infection, sepsis, heart disease, stroke, malignancy, and respiratory tract disease) between 2001 and 2018 in Taiwan. The patients were divided into two groups based on the presence (n = 46,000) or absence (n = 4,677,607) of HHS. We estimated the adjusted odds ratio (aOR) for developing VTE within 90 days after the index hospitalization using multivariable logistic regression with generalized estimating equations accounting for repeated measures. Results: Overall, patients admitted with HHS had a similar risk of VTE compared with those admitted without HHS (408/46,000 vs. 39,345/4,677,607; aOR = 1.06, 95% CI: 0.97–1.17, p = 0.190). A similar non-significant association between HHS and VTE was found regardless of age and sex subgroups. Conclusions: There was no significant association between HHS and overall VTE risk in patients with diabetes in Taiwan. The results of our study may not support the use of prophylactic anticoagulant therapy in diabetic Taiwanese patients with HHS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND: The main condition of pre-diabetes is insulin resistance that can lead to a prothrombotic state.
AIM: This study aims to correlate insulin resistance with soluble CD40 ligand (sCD40L) and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) plasma in pre-diabetic patients.
METHODS: This study is an analytic observational study with a cross-sectional approach. HOMA-IR assessed insulin resistance, and prothrombotic factors were assessed by PAI-1 and soluble CD40L. PAI-1 and sCD40L were examined by ELISA. These indicators were assessed on 30 pre-diabetic patients.
RESULTS: Thirty subjects included in this study with a mean age of 31.47 (5.03) years old, consist of 19 (63%) men and 11 (37%) women. The mean HOMA-IR was 3.69 (1.12), PAI-1 was 10.25 (3.72) ng/mL, and the PAI-1 levels were increased (>8.4 ng/mL) in 70% of the subjects. The mean of sCD40L levels was 4495.7 (1136.3) pg/ml, and sCD40L levels were increased (>4000 pg/ml) in 63% of subject. There was a significant correlation between HOMA-IR levels and sCD40L (r = 0.636, p < 0.05) and between of HOMA-IR and PAI-1 (r = 0.742, p < 0.05). Moderate correlation was found between sCD40L levels and plasma PAI-1 (r = 0.592, p < 0.05) in pre-diabetic patient. The correlation between three variables was HOMA-IR had a significant effect on PAI-1 levels through sCD40L (t = 2.010, p < 0.05, structure loading factor = 0.286).
CONCLUSION: Insulin resistance has a strong and significant correlation with sCD40L and PAI-1 levels in pre-diabetic patients.

Abstract
Stroke is a highly lethal disease and disabling illness while ischemic stroke accounts for the majority of stroke. It has been found that inflammation plays a key role in the initiation and progression of stroke, and atherosclerotic plaque rupture is considered to be the leading cause of ischemic stroke. Furthermore, chronic inflammatory diseases, such as obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and hypertension, are also considered as the high-risk factors for stroke. Recently, the topic on how gut microbiota affects human health has aroused great concern. The initiation and progression of ischemic stroke has been found to have close relation with gut microbiota dysbiosis. Hence, this manuscript briefly summarizes the roles of gut microbiota in ischemic stroke and its related risk factors, and the practicability of preventing and alleviating ischemic stroke by reconstructing gut microbiota.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of death in patients with diabetes. Cardiovascular disease in diabetes is multifactorial, and control of the cardiovascular risk factors leads to substantial reductions in cardiovascular events. The 2015 American Heart Association and American Diabetes Association scientific statement, "Update on Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease in Adults With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in Light of Recent Evidence," highlighted the importance of modifying various risk factors responsible for cardiovascular disease in diabetes. At the time, there was limited evidence to suggest that glucose-lowering medications reduce the risk of cardiovascular events. At present, several large randomized controlled trials with newer antihyperglycemic agents have been completed, demonstrating cardiovascular safety and reduction in cardiovascular outcomes, including cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stroke, and heart failure. This AHA scientific statement update focuses on (1) the evidence and clinical utility of newer antihyperglycemic agents in improving glycemic control and reducing cardiovascular events in diabetes; (2) the impact of blood pressure control on cardiovascular events in diabetes; and (3) the role of newer lipid-lowering therapies in comprehensive cardiovascular risk management in adults with diabetes. This scientific statement addresses the continued importance of lifestyle interventions, pharmacological therapy, and surgical interventions to curb the epidemic of obesity and metabolic syndrome, important precursors of prediabetes, diabetes, and comorbid cardiovascular disease. Last, this scientific statement explores the critical importance of the social determinants of health and health equity in the continuum of care in diabetes and cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION New onset of diabetes mellitus was noted as the commonest comorbidity in the COVID-19 pandemic, which contributed to a worse prognosis. Existing evidence showed that new-onset diabetes is associated with increased mortality compared to nondiabetic and known diabetic patients in the COVID-19 era. SARS-CoV-2 virus can worsen existing diabetes; at the same time, it can trigger new-onset diabetes that eventually worsens patient outcomes. Thus, this study is aimed at determining the prevalence and factors associated with new onset of diabetes mellitus among COVID-19 patients. METHODS Institution-based retrospective cross-sectional study design was conducted by reviewing 244 patient's records in the Addis Ababa COVID-19 care center. Descriptive statistics and binary logistic regression were used. During bivariate analysis, variables with p ≤ 0.25 were transferred into multivariate analysis. Adjusted odds ratios to determine the strength and presence of the association with a 95% confidence interval and p value ≤ 0.05 were considered, respectively. RESULTS The mean age of the study participants was 53.2 years with (SD = 13.35). The study findings showed that 31.1% (CI: 25.4-37.4) of COVID-19 patients had new onset of diabetes mellitus; of those, 11.8% had type 1 and 88.2% had type 2 diabetes. Being male (aOR = 2.9; 95% CI: 1.2, 7.1), family history of hypertension (aOR = 3.7; 95% CI: 1.3, 10.5), obesity (aOR = 3.1; 95% CI: 1.01, 8.9), having pulmonary embolism (aOR = 0.2; 95% CI: 0.06, 0.04), and hyperkalemia (aOR = 9.3; 95% CI: 1.8, 47.3) showed statistically significant association with new onset of diabetes mellitus. CONCLUSION A significant proportion of COVID-19 patients had been diagnosed with new onset of diabetes mellitus, and new-onset type 2 diabetes mellitus is the most common diabetes mellitus type. Being male, obesity, having a pulmonary embolism, family history of hypertension, and hyperkalemia were independently associated with new onset of diabetes mellitus among COVID-19 patients. Therefore, focused interventions need to be strengthened towards the identified factors.

Abstract
PURPOSE To study the correlation between estimated glucose disposition rate (eGDR) and coagulation parameters in type 2 diabetes patients (T2DM). MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 948 patients suffering from T2DM were enrolled for this research. Various blood coagulation parameters including prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), and fibrinogen (FIB) were assessed. Body mass index (BMI), hypertension, and the levels of glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) were used to calculate the patients' eGDRs. All patients were sorted into two groups: those with high eGDRs (eGDR≥7.5) and those with low eGDRs (eGDR<7.5). The patients were then separated into groups of men and women. The connection between eGDR and coagulation indexes was examined using Spearman correlation, Pearson correlation, and multiple linear regression analysis. RESULTS In comparison to the high-eGDR group, reduced PT and APTT levels with increased FIB levels were observed in the low-eGDR group (P =0.006, P <0.001, and P = 0.035, respectively). The eGDR showed a positive relation with APTT (r = 0.142, P < 0.001), a negative relation with FIB (r = -0.082, P = 0.012), and no correlation with PT (r =0.064, P =0.050) in the all patients. As well as, the eGDR demonstrated a positive relation with APTT (r = 0.173, P < 0.001), a negative relation with FIB (r = -0.093, P = 0.03), and no relation with PT (r = 0.045, P = 0.300) in the male subgroups. Additionally, this correlation persisted following the adjustment of other factors in multilinear regression analysis. However, the female subgroup demonstrated no correlation among eGDR and PT, APTT or FIB (r = 0.086, P = 0.083, r = 0.097, P = 0.05;r = -0.058, P = 0.240, respectively). CONCLUSION Our study is the first to prove that eGDR demonstrates a correlation with coagulation indexes in T2DM patients. And, this correlation is gender-specific.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Diabetes mellitus is a heterogeneous disorder of metabolism which results hyperglycemic-related atherothrombotic complications. These complications are the leading cause of death in diabetes mellitus patients. Therefore, this study was aimed to determine the prevalence of coagulopathy and associated factors among adult type II diabetes mellitus patients attending at University of Gondar comprehensive specialized hospital. METHODS A facility-based cross-sectional study was conducted among 357 study participants. A questionnaire and a data collection sheet were used to collect the sociodemographic and clinical data, respectively. About 6mL of venous blood samples were collected for coagulation tests and complete blood count. For prolonged coagulation tests, a mixing test was performed. Data were entered into EpiInfo and exported to SPSS for statistical analysis. Then, descriptive statistics were done. A binary and multivariable logistic regression model was used to identify the associated factors. P-value <0.05 was considered as statistically significant. RESULTS In this study, 357 study participants were included. Of them, 52.1% (186) and 80.7% (288) were females and urban residences, respectively. The prevalence of coagulopathy was 26.6% (95% CI: 22.1, 31.5%). Out of this, 12.3% and 8.7% showed shortened PT and aPTT, respectively. In addition, the prevalence of prolonged PT and aPTT were 5.6% and 3.9%, respectively. From the prolonged PT and aPTT, the prevalence of factor deficiency was 95% and 92.8%, respectively. Being female (AOR = 2.06; 95% CI: 1.11-3.85%), abnormal BMI (AOR = 1.94; 95% CI: 1.08-3.50), and educational status of high school (AOR = 0.26; 95% CI: 0.10-0.83%) were significantly associated with hypercoagulation. CONCLUSION Coagulopathy is an important public health problem among type II diabetes mellitus patients. Being female and having abnormal BMI were associated with hypercoagulation. Therefore, regular monitoring of coagulation parameters is vital to reduce the consequence of coagulopathy.

Abstract
SARS-CoV2 triggers a cytokine storm resulting in pneumonia and acute respiratory distress. Preliminary data suggests that the infection rate is lower in CF compared to the general population. Individuals with CF may possess physiologic protective mechanisms reducing disease severity. Disease severity is worse in those with diabetes. Further study is needed to determine if outcomes are worse in cystic fibrosis-related diabetes.
The novel SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus (COVID-19) has become a global health crisis since its initial outbreak in Wuhan, China in December 2019. On January 30, 2020, the WHO recognized the COVID-19 outbreak as a Public Health Emergency, and on March 11, 2020, it was declared a pandemic. Although all age groups have been affected, patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) and patients with type 1 or type 2 diabeteshave been categorized as highly vulnerable to SARS-CoV-2 infection. Thus far, studies have found that the incidence of SARS-CoV-2 in the CF population is lower than the general population. We review the underlying protective mechanisms which may reduce inflammation and lung damage in CF patients, thus decreasing their risk of severe COVID-19. While the effect of SARS-CoV-2 in those with diabetes related to CF is unknown, other forms of diabetes have been associated with more severe disease. To further understand the potential impact of SARS-CoV-2 in cystic fibrosis-related diabetes, we provide a comprehensive overview of the potential factors contributing to COVID-19 severity in other forms of diabetes, including direct viral effect on the pancreas and indirect effects related to hyperglycemia and immune dysregulation.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the utility of estimated glucose disposal rate (eGDR) as a candidate biomarker for thrombotic biomarkers in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D). METHODS We reanalysed baseline pretreatment data in a subset of patients with T1D from two previous RCTs, consisting of a panel of thrombotic markers, including fibrinogen, tissue factor (TF) activity, and plasminogen-activator inhibitor (PAI)-1, and TNFα, and clinical factors (age, T1D duration, HbA1c, insulin requirements, BMI, blood pressure, and eGDR). We employed univariate linear regression models to investigate associations between clinical parameters and eGDR with thrombotic biomarkers. RESULTS Thirty-two patients were included [mean ± SD age 31 ± 7 years, HbA1c of 58 ± 9 mmol/mol (7.5 ± 0.8%), eGDR 7.73 ± 2.61]. eGDR negatively associated with fibrinogen (P < 0.001), PAI-1 concentrations (P = 0.005), and TF activity (P = 0.020), but not TNFα levels (P = 0.881). We identified 2 clusters of patients displaying significantly different characteristics; 56% (n = 18) were categorised as 'higher-risk', eliciting significantly higher fibrinogen (+ 1514 ± 594 μg/mL; P < 0.001), TF activity (+ 59.23 ± 9.42 pmol/mL; P < 0.001), and PAI-1 (+ 8.48 ± 1.58 pmol/dL; P < 0.001), HbA1c concentrations (+ 14.20 ± 1.04 mmol/mol; P < 0.001), age (+ 7 ± 3 years; P < 0.001), duration of diabetes (15 ± 2 years; P < 0.001), BMI (+ 7.66 ± 2.61 kg/m2; P < 0.001), and lower mean eGDR (- 3.98 ± 1.07; P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Compared to BMI and insulin requirements, classical surrogates of insulin resistance, eGDR is a suitable and superior thrombotic risk indicator in T1D.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is significant heterogeneity in the incidence and severity of diabetes-associated vascular complications and there is no routine biomarker that accurately predicts these outcomes. This pilot study investigates the role of global coagulation assays in patients with diabetes mellitus. METHODS In this cross-sectional study, patients with diabetes not on anticoagulation or dialysis and without active malignancy were recruited from endocrinology clinics. Blood samples were collected for global coagulation assays including thromboelastography (TEG), thrombin generation using calibrated automated thrombogram (CAT), and fibrin generation and fibrinolysis using the overall hemostatic potential (OHP) assay. The results were compared with healthy controls. RESULTS A total of 147 adult patients including 19 with type 1 diabetes (T1DM), 120 with type 2 diabetes (T2DM), and eight with latent autoimmune diabetes were recruited. Compared with 153 healthy controls, patients with diabetes demonstrated higher maximum amplitude (68.6 vs 60.2 mm, p < 0.001) on TEG, and higher OHP (9.3 vs 6.4, p < 0.001) with comparable CAT parameters. Patients with T2DM were more hypercoagulable than those with T1DM on most biomarkers. Higher maximum amplitude, velocity index, and OHP were associated with increased risk of complications (C-stat 0.82). Patients with history of microvascular complications appear to have more hypercoagulable thrombin and fibrin generation than those without. CONCLUSION Patients with diabetes have more hypercoagulable profiles on global coagulation assays, particularly patients with T2DM and those with microvascular complications. Further studies with longitudinal follow-up are ongoing to evaluate the utility of global coagulation assays in predicting long-term patient outcomes.

Abstract
A prothrombotic state is a typical feature of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Apart from increased platelet reactivity, endothelial dysfunction, hyperfibrinogenemia, and hypofibrinolysis are observed in T2DM. A variety of poorly elucidated mechanisms behind impaired fibrinolysis in this disease have been reported, indicating complex associations between platelet activation, fibrin formation and clot structure, and fibrinolysis inhibitors, in particular, elevated plasminogen antigen inhibitor-1 levels which are closely associated with obesity. Abnormal fibrin clot structure is of paramount importance for relative resistance to plasmin-mediated lysis in T2DM. Enhanced thrombin generation, a proinflammatory state, increased release of neutrophil extracellular traps, elevated complement C3, along with posttranslational modifications of fibrinogen and plasminogen have been regarded to contribute to altered clot structure and impaired fibrinolysis in T2DM. Antidiabetic agents such as metformin and insulin, as well as antithrombotic agents, including anticoagulants, have been reported to improve fibrin properties and accelerate fibrinolysis in T2DM. Notably, recent evidence shows that hypofibrinolysis, assessed in plasma-based assays, has a predictive value in terms of cardiovascular events and cardiovascular mortality in T2DM patients. This review presents the current data on the mechanisms underlying arterial and venous thrombotic complications in T2DM patients, with an emphasis on hypofibrinolysis and its impact on clinical outcomes. We also discuss potential modulators of fibrinolysis in the search for optimal therapy in diabetic patients.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a metabolic disorder that currently affects more than 400 million worldwide and is projected to cause 552 million cases by the year 2030. Long-term vascular complications, such as coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, stroke, are the leading causes of morbidity and mortality among diabetic patients. The recent advances in genome-wide technologies have given a powerful impetus to the study of risk markers for multifactorial diseases. To date, the role of genetic and epigenetic factors in modulating susceptibility to T2DM and its vascular complications is being successfully studied that provides the accumulation of genomic knowledge. In the future, this will provide an opportunity to reveal the pathogenetic pathways in the development of the disease and allow to predict the macrovascular complications in T2DM patients. This review is focused on the evidence of the role of genetic variants and epigenetic changes in the development of macrovascular pathology in diabetic patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Alterations in coagulation could mediate functional outcome in patients with hyperglycemia after acute ischemic stroke (AIS). We prospectively studied the effects of intensive versus standard glucose control on coagulation markers and their relationships to functional outcomes in patients with AIS. APPROACH The Insights on Selected Procoagulation Markers and Outcomes in Stroke Trial measured the coagulation biomarkers whole blood tissue factor procoagulant activity (TFPCA); plasma factors VII (FVII), VIIa (FVIIa), and VIII (FVIII); thrombin-antithrombin (TAT) complex; D-dimer; tissue factor pathway inhibitor, and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) antigen in patients enrolled in the Stroke Hyperglycemia Insulin Network Effort trial of intensive versus standard glucose control on functional outcome at 3 months after AIS. Changes in biomarkers over time (from baseline ≈12 hours after stroke onset) to 48 hours, and changes in biomarkers between treatment groups, functional outcomes, and their interaction were analyzed by two-way analysis of variance. RESULTS A total of 125 patients were included (57 in the intensive treatment group and 68 in the standard treatment group). The overall mean age was 66 years; 42% were women. Changes from baseline to 48 hours in coagulation markers were significantly different between treatment groups for TFPCA (P = 0.02) and PAI-1 (P = .04) and FVIIa (P = .04). Increases in FVIIa and decreases in FVIII were associated with favorable functional outcomes (P = .04 and .04, respectively). In the intensive treatment group, reductions in TFPCA and FVIII and increases in FVIIa were greater in patients with favorable than unfavorable outcomes (P = .02, 0.002, 0.03, respectively). In the standard treatment group, changes in FVII were different by functional outcome (P = .006). CONCLUSIONS Intensive glucose control induced greater alterations in coagulation biomarkers than standard treatment, and these were associated with a favorable functional outcome at 3 months after AIS.

Abstract
AIMS Whether diabetes increases venous thromboembolism (VTE) is unclear. Any greater risk may relate to insulin resistance, but many studies did not differentiate between type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes for VTE risk. METHODS Retrospective cohort study of the Royal College of General Practitioners Research and Surveillance Centre, comprising over 530 primary care practices. We determined whether type 1 diabetes and/or type 2 diabetes are independent risk factors for VTE. The index date was 1 January 2009, individuals were followed to 31 December 2018, or censoring. Cox proportional hazard regression analysis was used to investigate the risk of VTE in people with type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes relative to no diabetes. The primary outcome was occurrence of VTE. The model was adjusted for potential confounders for VTE. RESULTS There were 7086 people with type 1 diabetes and 95,566 with type 2 diabetes, diagnosed before 1 January 2009. The non-diabetes group consisted of 1,407,699 people. In the unadjusted analysis, there was no increased risk of VTE with type 1 diabetes (HR 1.00, 95% CI 0.76-1.33) but there was for type 2 diabetes (HR 2.70, 95% CI 2.57-2.84). In the fully adjusted model, VTE risk was increased in type 1 diabetes (HR 1.46, 95% CI 1.11-1.92), but not with type 2 diabetes (HR 1.06, 95% CI 0.98-1.14). CONCLUSIONS Type 1 diabetes was associated with a greater risk for VTE while type 2 diabetes was not. Further work is needed to determine the reason(s) for this.

Abstract
Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST), accounting for less than 1% of stroke cases, is characterized by various causes, heterogeneous clinical presentation and different outcome. The plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) gene polymorphisms has been found to be associated with CVST. The aim of this retrospective study was to determine the potential association of PAI-1 675 4G/5G polymorphisms and homocysteine levels with cardiovascular risk factors in a group of young patients with CVST. Eighty patients with CVST and an equal number of age and sex matched controls were enrolled. The protocol included demographic and clinical baseline characteristics, neuroimagistic aspects, genetic testing (PAI-1 675 4G/5G polymorphisms), biochemical evaluation (homocysteine-tHcy, the lipid profile, blood glucose, glycohemoglobin-HbA1c, high-sensitive C-reactive protein-hsCRP) data, therapy and prognosis. The PAI-1 675 4G/5G gene polymorphisms were significantly correlated with increased homocysteine level (tHcy) (p < 0.05), higher total cholesterol (TC) (p < 0.05), low- density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDLc) (p = 0.05) and high- sensitive C- reactive protein (hsCRP) (p < 0.05) in patients with CVST when compared with controls. From the PAI-1 gene polymorphisms, the PAI-1 675 4G/5G genotype presented statistically significant values regarding the comparisons of the blood lipids values between the CVST group and control group. The homocysteine (tHcy) was increased in both groups, patients versus controls, in cases with the homozygous variant 4G/4G but the level was much higher in the group with CVST (50.56 µmol/L vs. 20.22 µmol/L; p = 0.03). The most common clinical presentation was headache (91.25%), followed by seizures (43.75%) and focal motor deficits (37.5%). The superior sagittal sinus (SSS) was the most commonly involved dural sinus (56.25%), followed by the lateral sinus (LS) (28.75%). Intima-media thickness (IMT) values were higher in the patients' group with CVST (0.95 mm vs. 0.88 mm; p < 0.05). The fatal outcome occurred 2.5% of the time. PAI-1 675 4G/5G gene polymorphisms and higher homocysteine concentrations were found to be significantly associated with CVST in young patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES There is limited knowledge of the relationship between mechanical thrombectomy (MT) and endothelial inflammation in large-vessel occlusion (LVO) acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Intimal arterial damage releases tissue factor, a precipitant of the clotting cascade and thrombosis. We report changes in blood coagulation markers after MT treated with and without tissue plasminogen activator for AIS. MATERIALS AND METHODS Cases of LVO-AIS treated with MT were included. Blood coagulation marker levels were measured within 10 h of stroke onset as a baseline and then 48 h later. Assayed biomarkers included: tissue factor procoagulant activity (TFPCA), factor VII (FVII), activated factor VII (FVIIa), factor VIII (FVIII), d-dimer, thrombin-antithrombin complex (TAT), plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), and tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI). Biomarker levels of MT with tissue plasminogen activator (TPA) or without (non-TPA) are reported. RESULTS Biomarker levels from five patients with LVO-AIS treated with MT (three non-TPA, two TPA) were included. In non-TPA cases, TFPCA and PAI-1 increased while FVII, FVIIa, TAT, d-dimer, and TFPI decreased from baseline to 48 h. In TPA cases, TFPCA, FVIIa, d-dimer, TFPI, and PAI-1 decreased while FVIII increased from baseline to 48 h. CONCLUSIONS TFPCA increased after MT in non-TPA but decreased in TPA treated patients. This finding suggests that MT is associated with elevated inflammation and procoagulation which may be reduced with TPA treatment. With further validation, the increase in TFPCA levels could help guide anticoagulant management of patients with MT without TPA.
