[PMID: 37931069 PMCID: PMC10940254 DOI: 10.1210/clinem/dgad639] [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: 07/01/2023] [Revised: 09/14/2023] [Accepted: 10/28/2023] [Indexed: 11/08/2023]
Abstract
AIMS Although conventional interventions for people at high risk of developing type 2 diabetes are usually conducted face-to-face, such interventions are burdensome for health care providers. We developed a lifestyle intervention program combining lifestyle coaching via a smartphone application augmented by intermittently scanned continuous glucose monitoring without burdening health care providers. Its effectiveness for glycemic control and body weight reduction in people at risk of type 2 diabetes was investigated. MATERIALS AND METHODS For this 12-week randomized unblinded trial with offline recruitment, participants with a hemoglobin A1c level of 5.6% to 6.4% or a fasting blood glucose of 110 to 125 mg/dL and body mass index (BMI) >23 kg/m2 but <40 kg/m2 were randomly assigned to the intervention group (App) and control group (C). The primary endpoint was the difference in time in range of blood glucose between 70 and 140 mg/dL (3.9-7.8 mmol/L) before and after the study period between the 2 groups. RESULTS Among 168 patients (mean age, 48.1 years; mean BMI, 26.6 kg/m2; and male, 80.4%), 82 and 86 were assigned to the App group and C group, respectively. After 12 weeks, time in range of blood glucose at 70 to 140 mg/dL significantly improved in the App group compared with the C group (-2.6 minutes/day vs +31.5 minutes/day, P = .03). Changes in time above range did not differ, whereas time below range (blood glucose <70 mg/dL; +23.5 minutes/day vs -8.9 minutes/day, P = .02) improved in the App group. BMI (-0.26 vs -0.59, P = .017) was reduced in the App group compared with the C group. CONCLUSION Intervention with a smartphone app and intermittently scanned continuous glucose monitoring increased glycemic control accompanied by decreased carbohydrate intake and weight loss. Further trials are needed to confirm whether these interventions can reduce incident type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
AIMS To determine the incidence of remission and 1-year relapse from remission and associated factors in patients with type 2 diabetes. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 48 320 Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes aged ≥18 years, with glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) levels ≥48 mmol/mol (6.5%) and/or glucose-lowering drug prescription, were identified from databases of specialist clinics from 1989 and followed until September 2022. Remission was defined as HbA1c <48 mmol/mol at least 3 months after cessation of a glucose-lowering drug. Relapse was defined as failure to maintain remission for 1 year. Factors associated with remission and relapse were evaluated by logistic regression analysis. RESULTS The overall incidence of remissions per 1000 person-years was 10.5, and for those with HbA1c levels of 48 to 53 mmol/mol (6.5% to 6.9%), those taking no glucose-lowering drugs at baseline, and those with a ≥10% body mass index (BMI) reduction in 1 year, it was 27.8, 21.7 and 48.2, respectively. Shorter duration, lower baseline HbA1c, higher baseline BMI, higher BMI reduction at 1 year, and no glucose-lowering drugs at baseline were significantly associated with remission. Among 3677 persons with remission, approximately two-thirds (2490) relapsed within 1 year. Longer duration, lower BMI at baseline, and lower BMI reduction at 1 year were significantly associated with relapse. CONCLUSIONS The results showed that the incidence of remission and predictors of relapse, especially baseline BMI, might differ greatly between East Asian and Western populations. Furthermore, the relationships of BMI reduction with remission and relapse may be greater in East Asian than in Western populations, implying ethnic differences in returning from overt hyperglycaemia to nearly normal glucose levels.

Abstract
Purpose: This randomized clinical trial (RCT) was designed to assess the effect of VD3, n-3FA, and their combination on serum leptin levels in people with vitamin D deficiency (VDD).
Subjects and methods: One hundred and forty six participants, were randomly assigned into four groups supplemented with the dose of 50,000 IU VD3 taken weekly (D), 300 mg n-3FA taken daily (Om), and their combination (D+Om) or control (C) for eight weeks. Fasting baseline and follow-up (10 weeks; 8 weeks supplementation plus washout period of 2 weeks) of serum 25 hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD), leptin, glucose, triglycerides (TG), parathyroid hormone (PTH), calcium, and phosphorus were assayed. A paired T-test was used to assess the changes in serum leptin levels over of the follow-up period.
Results: Significant increase in follow-up serum leptin (10.62 ± 7.18 to 14.42 ± 8.29 ng/mL, P = 0.002) and TG (154 ± 84.4 to 200.1 ± 79, P = 0.015) levels were observed in n-3-FA supplemented group. Combination therapy (VD3 plus n-3 FA) significantly increased serum 25OHD (13.49 ± 4.64 to 37.09 ± 11.13 ng/mL, P < 0.001), TG levels (114.3 ± 57.3 to 139.1 ± 60.7 mg/mL, P = 0.007) and insignificantly serum leptin (6.74 ± 4.87 to 8.01 ± 6.77 ng/mL, P = 0.269).
Conclusion: Our study referred that notable elevation in leptin and TG levels might be linked to leptin resistance. However, further RCTs are required to clarify possible consequences resulted from the extensive administration of n-3FA supplements and their combinations with high doses of VD3 supplements on humans’ health.

Abstract
PURPOSE Little is known about the underlying physiology that contributes to Haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) in the normal and pre-diabetic range. We determined the contribution of fasting plasma glucose (FPG), 2-h plasma glucose (2hPG), insulin secretion, insulin sensitivity and endogenous glucose production to HbA1c levels in the normal and pre-diabetic range. METHODS A total of 62 Danish men and women with normal or impaired glucose regulation were studied. HbA1c levels were measured and participants underwent an oral glucose tolerance test with measurements of FPG and 2hPG, an intravenous glucose tolerance test for determination of first-phase insulin release, and a hyperinsulinaemic euglycaemic clamp for estimation of peripheral and hepatic insulin sensitivity. Associations of HbA1c with the different measures of glucose metabolism were analysed by linear regression analysis. RESULTS HbA1c levels ranged from 28 to 45 mmol/mol (4.7-6.3%) in the study population. 1 SD higher (log) FPG concentration (~1 mmol/L) was associated with 2 mmol/mol higher HbA1c concentration (P < 0.001). In comparison, 1 SD higher levels of (log) first-phase insulin secretion or (log) disposition index were associated with 1.5 mmol/mol lower HbA1c levels (P < 0.05). HbA1c was not associated with peripheral or hepatic insulin sensitivity, endogenous glucose production or 2hPG levels. CONCLUSION HbA1c levels within the normal and pre-diabetic range seem to reflect decreased insulin secretion to a higher extent than insulin resistance. Therefore, early prevention strategies for high-risk individuals identified by HbA1c are not straightforward. More research on how to improve the health of beta cells either directly or indirectly in high-risk individuals is needed.

Abstract
AIMS This study aims to assess insulin secretion and resistance through oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) among young Japanese individuals. SUBJECTS AND METHODS We enrolled 595 young healthy Japanese individuals aged 22-29 years. They underwent an OGTT, and their results were divided into 4 groups (I-IV), according to the time at which their plasma glucose concentration declined below the fasting glucose concentration (30, 60 or 120 minutes or never as groups I, II, III and IV, respectively). RESULTS We classified 575 normal glucose-tolerant subjects into 4 groups (I-IV) with I: 28 (4.9%), II: 120 (20.9%), III: 143 (24.9%) and IV: 284 (49.4%) individuals. The Matsuda, insulinogenic and disposition indices were decreased from groups I to IV. ROC curves of disposition index reflecting the composition of insulin secretion and sensitivity classified the prolonged glucose elevation group (group III + IV) from the rapid glucose lowering group (group II; AUC = 0.847). CONCLUSIONS Even in a young and healthy Japanese individual within the physiological range of glycaemic control, there is a sequential decrease in insulin sensitivity and secretion.

Abstract
This study focuses on the effect of honokiol (HON) on glucose homeostasis, insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, hepatic steatosis, and inflammation in type 2 diabetic db/db mice. Male C57BL/KsJ-db/db mice were fed a normal diet with or without HON (0.02%, w/w) or pioglitazone (PIO, anti-diabetic agent, 0.01%, w/w) for 5 weeks. Blood biomarker, tissue morphology and enzymatic and genetic parameters were determined. PIO significantly decreased food intake, fasting blood glucose, and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels, but markedly increased body weight, adipose tissue weight, and plasma leptin levels. HON did not significantly affect food intake, body weight, or levels of plasma leptin and blood glucose. However, HON led to significant decreases in adipose tissue weight, plasma insulin, blood HbA1c and HOMA-IR levels and improved glucose tolerance. The anti-diabetic and anti-adiposity effects of HON were partially related to the inhibition of gluconeogenic enzymes and their mRNA expression in the liver; and the inhibition of lipogenic enzymes in adipose tissue, respectively. Unlike PIO, HON did not affect dyslipidemia, but ameliorated hepatic steatosis by inhibiting hepatic lipogenic enzymes activity. Moreover, HON exhibited anti-inflammatory effects similar to PIO. These results suggest that HON can protect against type 2 diabetes by improving insulin resistance, glucose and lipid metabolism, and inflammation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Oxidative stress and impaired insulin secretion is an underlying major risk factor for the development of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Uncoupling protein-2 (UCP2) is involved in the regulation of reactive oxygen species production, insulin secretion, and lipid metabolism. Based on this we aimed to find an association of UCP2 (G-866A) polymorphism with the risk of T2D in South Indian population. METHODS A total of 318 T2D patients and 312 controls were enrolled in this study. All the study subjects were genotyped for UCP2 (G-866A) polymorphism using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). Fasting blood glucose, HbA1c, serum lipid profile, systolic and diastolic blood pressure were measured by standard biochemical methods. Fasting serum insulin level was measured by ELISA. RESULTS In UCP2 (G-866A) polymorphism, the distribution of GA (46%) and AA (14%) genotypes were significantly higher in T2D patients than the healthy controls. The frequency of GA and AA genotypes have high risk towards the development of T2D with an Odds Ratio (OR) of 1.55 (P = 0.01) and 2.04 (P = 0.01) respectively. Moreover, SNP-866 G>A allele was found to be significantly associated with T2D (OR = 1.48, P = 0.001, 95% CI = 1.16-1.88). Further, the UCP2 AA genotype showed significantly decreased level of insulin by the reduction in pancreatic β-cell function in T2D patients. CONCLUSION UCP2 (G-866A) polymorphism may play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of insulin secretion thus leads to the development of T2D.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intermediate hyperglycaemia (IH) is characterised by one or more measurements of elevated blood glucose concentrations, such as impaired fasting glucose (IFG), impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and elevated glycosylated haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c). These levels are higher than normal but below the diagnostic threshold for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The reduced threshold of 5.6 mmol/L (100 mg/dL) fasting plasma glucose (FPG) for defining IFG, introduced by the American Diabetes Association (ADA) in 2003, substantially increased the prevalence of IFG. Likewise, the lowering of the HbA1c threshold from 6.0% to 5.7% by the ADA in 2010 could potentially have significant medical, public health and socioeconomic impacts. OBJECTIVES To assess the overall prognosis of people with IH for developing T2DM, regression from IH to normoglycaemia and the difference in T2DM incidence in people with IH versus people with normoglycaemia. SEARCH METHODS We searched MEDLINE, Embase, ClincialTrials.gov and the International Clinical Trials Registry Platform (ICTRP) Search Portal up to December 2016 and updated the MEDLINE search in February 2018. We used several complementary search methods in addition to a Boolean search based on analytical text mining. SELECTION CRITERIA We included prospective cohort studies investigating the development of T2DM in people with IH. We used standard definitions of IH as described by the ADA or World Health Organization (WHO). We excluded intervention trials and studies on cohorts with additional comorbidities at baseline, studies with missing data on the transition from IH to T2DM, and studies where T2DM incidence was evaluated by documents or self-report only. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS One review author extracted study characteristics, and a second author checked the extracted data. We used a tailored version of the Quality In Prognosis Studies (QUIPS) tool for assessing risk of bias. We pooled incidence and incidence rate ratios (IRR) using a random-effects model to account for between-study heterogeneity. To meta-analyse incidence data, we used a method for pooling proportions. For hazard ratios (HR) and odds ratios (OR) of IH versus normoglycaemia, reported with 95% confidence intervals (CI), we obtained standard errors from these CIs and performed random-effects meta-analyses using the generic inverse-variance method. We used multivariable HRs and the model with the greatest number of covariates. We evaluated the certainty of the evidence with an adapted version of the GRADE framework. MAIN RESULTS We included 103 prospective cohort studies. The studies mainly defined IH by IFG5.6 (FPG mmol/L 5.6 to 6.9 mmol/L or 100 mg/dL to 125 mg/dL), IFG6.1 (FPG 6.1 mmol/L to 6.9 mmol/L or 110 mg/dL to 125 mg/dL), IGT (plasma glucose 7.8 mmol/L to 11.1 mmol/L or 140 mg/dL to 199 mg/dL two hours after a 75 g glucose load on the oral glucose tolerance test, combined IFG and IGT (IFG/IGT), and elevated HbA1c (HbA1c5.7: HbA1c 5.7% to 6.4% or 39 mmol/mol to 46 mmol/mol; HbA1c6.0: HbA1c 6.0% to 6.4% or 42 mmol/mol to 46 mmol/mol). The follow-up period ranged from 1 to 24 years. Ninety-three studies evaluated the overall prognosis of people with IH measured by cumulative T2DM incidence, and 52 studies evaluated glycaemic status as a prognostic factor for T2DM by comparing a cohort with IH to a cohort with normoglycaemia. Participants were of Australian, European or North American origin in 41 studies; Latin American in 7; Asian or Middle Eastern in 50; and Islanders or American Indians in 5. Six studies included children and/or adolescents.Cumulative incidence of T2DM associated with IFG5.6, IFG6.1, IGT and the combination of IFG/IGT increased with length of follow-up. Cumulative incidence was highest with IFG/IGT, followed by IGT, IFG6.1 and IFG5.6. Limited data showed a higher T2DM incidence associated with HbA1c6.0 compared to HbA1c5.7. We rated the evidence for overall prognosis as of moderate certainty because of imprecision (wide CIs in most studies). In the 47 studies reporting restitution of normoglycaemia, regression ranged from 33% to 59% within one to five years follow-up, and from 17% to 42% for 6 to 11 years of follow-up (moderate-certainty evidence).Studies evaluating the prognostic effect of IH versus normoglycaemia reported different effect measures (HRs, IRRs and ORs). Overall, the effect measures all indicated an elevated risk of T2DM at 1 to 24 years of follow-up. Taking into account the long-term follow-up of cohort studies, estimation of HRs for time-dependent events like T2DM incidence appeared most reliable. The pooled HR and the number of studies and participants for different IH definitions as compared to normoglycaemia were: IFG5.6: HR 4.32 (95% CI 2.61 to 7.12), 8 studies, 9017 participants; IFG6.1: HR 5.47 (95% CI 3.50 to 8.54), 9 studies, 2818 participants; IGT: HR 3.61 (95% CI 2.31 to 5.64), 5 studies, 4010 participants; IFG and IGT: HR 6.90 (95% CI 4.15 to 11.45), 5 studies, 1038 participants; HbA1c5.7: HR 5.55 (95% CI 2.77 to 11.12), 4 studies, 5223 participants; HbA1c6.0: HR 10.10 (95% CI 3.59 to 28.43), 6 studies, 4532 participants. In subgroup analyses, there was no clear pattern of differences between geographic regions. We downgraded the evidence for the prognostic effect of IH versus normoglycaemia to low-certainty evidence due to study limitations because many studies did not adequately adjust for confounders. Imprecision and inconsistency required further downgrading due to wide 95% CIs and wide 95% prediction intervals (sometimes ranging from negative to positive prognostic factor to outcome associations), respectively.This evidence is up to date as of 26 February 2018. AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS Overall prognosis of people with IH worsened over time. T2DM cumulative incidence generally increased over the course of follow-up but varied with IH definition. Regression from IH to normoglycaemia decreased over time but was observed even after 11 years of follow-up. The risk of developing T2DM when comparing IH with normoglycaemia at baseline varied by IH definition. Taking into consideration the uncertainty of the available evidence, as well as the fluctuating stages of normoglycaemia, IH and T2DM, which may transition from one stage to another in both directions even after years of follow-up, practitioners should be careful about the potential implications of any active intervention for people 'diagnosed' with IH.

Abstract
Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol (LDL-C) always underestimates the true cholesterol burden in diabetic patients. We aimed to explore the impact of the inclusion of apolipoprotein B (apoB) or non-high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol (non-HDL-C), which are alternative markers of LDL-related risk, results in a better classification of glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c)-defined diabetic patients into different dyslipidemic phenotypes.We used data from the nationwide China Health and Nutrition Survey 2009 in which standardized HbA1c was measured.The prevalence of abnormal LDL using non-HDL-cholesterol (74.1%) was similar to the prevalence rate using LDL-C (75.2%), whereas the prevalence was relatively lower when using apoB (69.6%). In normotriglyceridemic HbA1c-defined diabetic patients, apoB and non-HDL-C were not superior to LDL-C in detecting abnormal LDL. However, in hypertriglyceridemic patients, apoB and non-HDL-C were superior to LDL-C for the detection of abnormal lipid levels, but apoB was not superior to non-HDL-C in detecting abnormal LDL in hypertriglyceridemic participants.Both apoB and non-HDL-C identify high-risk dyslipidemic phenotypes that are not detected by LDL-C in hypertriglyceridemic HbA1c-defined diabetic patients, with the superiority of non-HDL- C over apoB.

Abstract
Aim To identify which patient-related effect modifiers influence the outcomes of integrated care programs for type 2 diabetes in primary care. Background Integrated care is a widespread management strategy for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. However, most integrated care programs are not tailored to patients’ needs, preferences and abilities. There is increasing consensus that such a patient-centered approach could improve the management of type 2 diabetes. Thus far, it remains unclear which patient-related effect modifiers should guide such an approach. Methods PubMed, CINAHL and EMBASE were searched for empirical studies published after 1998. A systematic literature review was conducted according to the PRISMA guidelines. Findings In total, 23 out of 1015 studies were included. A total of 21 studies measured the effects of integrated diabetes care programs on hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and three on low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, systolic blood pressure and health-care utilization. In total, 49 patient characteristics were assessed as potential effect modifiers with HbA1c as an outcome, of which 46 were person or health-related and only three were context-related. Younger age, insulin therapy and longer disease duration were associated with higher HbA1c levels in cross-sectional and longitudinal studies. Higher baseline HbA1c was associated with higher HbA1c at follow-up in longitudinal studies. Information on context- and person-related characteristics was limited, but is necessary to help identify the care needs of individual patients and implement an effective integrated type 2 diabetes tailored care program.

Abstract
The pathophysiology is distinct in various state of glucose metabolism abnormalities. As the defect of individuals with normal oral glucose tolerance (NGT) but isolated high glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), i.e. iHH, was ambiguous, we aimed to investigate the insulin sensitivity and β-cell function of iHH. According to the ADA criteria of HbA1c cut-off point (5.7%), 3,517 subjects with NGT screened from a total of 7,855 middle-aged and elderly Chinese without known diabetes were divided into two groups, 1,877 subjects with HbA1c < 5.7% and 1,640 with HbA1c ≥ 5.7% (i.e. iHH). A variety of indexes from blood glucose and insulin levels of oral glucose tolerance were calculated to evaluate insulin sensitivity and β-cell function. Compared with subjects with HbA1c < 5.7%, individuals with iHH had increased homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), early-phase and total insulin release indexes (insulin release index 30 min and 120 min, i.e. INRS30 and INSR120), and decreased Matsuda insulin sensitivity index (Matsuda ISI) and early-phase disposition index (DI30). After adjustment for confounding factors, the significant difference of HOMA-IR and INSR30 between the two groups vanished, however, Matsuda ISI and DI30 remained significantly lower and INSR120 was still higher in iHH group compared with HbA1c < 5.7%. In conculsion, subjects with NGT may not be perfectly healthy in glycometabolism, those with iHH have impaired early-phase β-cell function and decreased insulin sensitivity.

Not performing an OGTT results in significant underdiagnosis of (pre)diabetes in a high risk adult Caucasian population. Int J Obes (Lond) 2017; 41:1615-1620. [PMID: 28720876 DOI: 10.1038/ijo.2017.165] [Citation(s) in RCA: 63] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/23/2016] [Revised: 04/13/2017] [Accepted: 04/23/2017] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) is known to be underdiagnosed. Tests for diagnosis include fasting plasma glucose (FPG), oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and HbA1c. HbA1c can be tested in non-fasting conditions. Therefore, general practitioners almost no longer execute OGTT's. We evaluated the performance of OGTT versus HbA1c in a population consisting of overweight and obese subjects, which can be considered a 'high risk' population. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS A total of, 1241 overweight and obese subjects without a history of diabetes (male/female: 375/866, age 44±13 years, body mass index 38.0±6.1 kg m-2) were tested for glucose tolerance status using FPG, OGTT and HbA1c. RESULTS Exactly, 46.8% were found to have prediabetes and 11.9% were newly diagnosed with T2DM (male/female=18.9/8.9%) using ADA criteria. Testing only HbA1c would have resulted in 78 subjects being diagnosed with T2DM, but 47.3% of newly diagnosed patients would have been missed if OGTT would not have been done. Exactly 581 subjects were diagnosed with prediabetes, 1.4% subjects had impaired fasting glucose (IFG) 30.5% had impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), 5.1% subjects had a combined IFG+IGT, and 9.8% had an isolated elevated HbA1c (5.7-6.4%). Of the 581 subjects with prediabetes, 257 had an HbA1c <5.7%. Therefore, 44.2% subjects would have been missed when OGTT would not have been done. CONCLUSION In a population with only overweight and obese adult subjects, 46.8% were diagnosed with prediabetes and 11.9% were newly diagnosed with diabetes. Exactly, 5.6 and 20.7% of total population met the diagnostic criteria of the OGTT for diabetes and prediabetes, respectively, but did not meet the diagnostic criteria of the HbA1c. These data suggest that not performing an OGTT results in significant underdiagnose of T2DM in an overweight and obese adult population.

J Diabetes Investig 2017; 8:210-217. [PMID: 27560769 PMCID: PMC5334300 DOI: 10.1111/jdi.12569] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2016] [Revised: 07/06/2016] [Accepted: 08/23/2016] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
AIMS/INTRODUCTION Insulin degludec/insulin aspart (IDegAsp) is a soluble combination of insulin degludec (70%) and insulin aspart (30%). The present exploratory trial investigated the safety of switching unit-to-unit from twice-daily basal or pre-mix insulin to twice-daily IDegAsp in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this 6-week, open-label, parallel-group, controlled trial, 66 participants were randomized (1:1) to receive either IDegAsp or biphasic insulin aspart 30 (BIAsp 30) twice daily at the same total daily dose as pre-trial insulin. During the trial, insulin doses were adjusted according to a pre-specified algorithm to achieve pre-breakfast and pre-dinner plasma glucose of 4.4-7.2 mmol/L. RESULTS No severe hypoglycemic episodes occurred. There were no statistically significant differences in rates of confirmed hypoglycemia (rate ratio IDegAsp/BIAsp 30: 0.63, 95% confidence interval: 0.31-1.30) and confirmed nocturnal hypoglycemia (rate ratio: 0.49, 95% confidence interval: 0.10-2.38) for IDegAsp vs BIAsp 30. The hypoglycemia rate for IDegAsp was constant over the 6 weeks of treatment. IDegAsp and BIAsp 30 were both safe and well tolerated. Reduction in fasting plasma glucose was statistically significantly greater for IDegAsp than for BIAsp 30 (estimated treatment difference, IDegAsp-BIAsp 30: -1.6 mmol/L, 95% confidence interval: -2.4 to -0.8). The apparent decrease in mean postprandial plasma glucose increment (IDegAsp: 4.2-3.8 mmol/L; BIAsp 30: 4.5-2.8 mmol/L) was not statistically significantly different between treatments (estimated treatment difference: 1.0 mmol/L, 95% confidence interval: -0.1 to 2.2). CONCLUSIONS Switching unit-to-unit from basal or pre-mix insulin to IDegAsp seems not to be associated with any concerns related to hypoglycemia or general safety in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
UNLABELLED We sought to examine the correlation between variables and A1C levels to determine if prediction modeling could be used in the screening and diagnosis of diabetes and prediabetes in youth. We also sought to test relationships between A1C levels to insulin sensitivity indices and β-cell function indices. DESIGN AND METHODS We performed a retrospective review of 904 medical records from youth deemed at-risk for the disease. We performed Pearson correlation, multiple regression, and simple regression testing to determine the relationship between variables and A1C levels. In addition, we performed Pearson correlation testing on insulin sensitivity indices and β-cell function indices to determine the strength of correlation to A1C levels. RESULTS Statistical analysis did not show a strong relationship between the variables tested and the A1C. When racial and ethnic groups were tested together, the results from African American participants resulted in bias estimates, and as a result, a statistical model for the entire sample could not be performed. Results indicate that A1C is correlated with all β-cell function proxy measurements and correlated to the corrected insulin level at 30minutes, but not the fasting insulin or insulinogenic index. DISCUSSION The results from this study underline the multi-dimensional causes of diabetes and prediabetes and further stress the difficulties in predicting the diseases. The causes of diabetes and prediabetes are multifaceted, often individualized, and often difficult to ascertain. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS Clinicians should continue to examine a variety of variables prior to determining the need for diabetes diagnostic testing.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Sex differences in the association of HbA1c and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk remain controversial. We examined CVD risk profile in both HbA1c-defined diabetic and nondiabetic men and women. METHODS We conducted a cross-sectional analysis of 7139 Chinese adults using data from the China Health and Nutrition Survey 2009. RESULTS HbA1c-defined nondiabetic men have a more favorable CVD risk profile than female counterparts. However, HbA1c-defined diabetic men have higher levels of triglyceride, low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol, and triglyceride/high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol and lower levels of HDL-cholesterol, be more visceral obese as indicated by visceral adiposity index (VAI) and lipid accumulation product (LAP), and more insulin resistant as assessed by the triglycerides and glucose index (TyG) than HbA1c-defined diabetic women. Furthermore, HbA1c-defined diabetic men showed greater relative differences in ferritin than diabetic women when compared with their nondiabetic counterparts. Statistically significant sex by HbA1c-defined diabetes status interactions were observed for triglyceride, LDL-cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, triglyceride/HDL cholesterol, VAI, LAP, TyG, and ferritin (all ps < 0.05). Consideration of VAI or homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance or both failed to eliminate the sex differences in the associations between diabetes and these CVD risk factors. CONCLUSIONS Men who progressed from HbA1c-defined nondiabetes to HbA1c-defined diabetes have greater metabolic deteriorations and put on more visceral adiposity than women. Key messages HbA1c-defined nondiabetic men have a more favorable CVD risk profile than female counterparts. Men have to undergo a greater metabolic deterioration to develop HbA1c-defined diabetes than do women. Men have to put on more visceral adiposity to develop HbA1c-defined diabetes than do women.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Insulin resistance (IR) plays a vital role in the pathogenesis of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). The mechanism of IR may be associated with inflammation, whereas the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is a new indicator of subclinical inflammation. Scholars have rarely investigated the relationship between IR and NLR. This study aims to evaluate the relationship between IR and NLR, and determine whether or not NLR is a reliable marker for IR. METHODS The sample consists of a total of 413 patients with T2DM, 310 of whom have a HOMA-IR value of > 2.0. The control group consists of 130 age and BMI matched healthy subjects. RESULTS The NLR values of the diabetic patients were significantly higher than those of the healthy control (P < 0.001), and the NLR values of the patients with a HOMA-IR value of > 2.0 are notably greater than those of the patients with a HOMA-IR value of ≤ 2.0 (P < 0.001). Pearson correlation analysis showed a significant positive correlation of NLR with HOMA-IR (r = 0.285) (P < 0.001). Logistic regression analysis showed that the risk predictors of IR include NLR, TG and HbA1c. NLR (P < 0.001, EXP(B) = 7.231, 95% CI = 4.277-12.223) levels correlated positively with IR. The IR odds ratio increased by a factor of 7.231 (95% CI, 4.277-12.223) for every one unit increase in NLR. CONCLUSIONS Increased NLR was significantly associated with IR, and high NLR values may be a reliable predictive marker of IR.

Abstract
AIMS Insulin degludec/insulin aspart (IDegAsp) is a soluble co-formulation of IDeg and IAsp. This pan-Asian, 26-week trial investigated efficacy and safety of IDegAsp vs biphasic insulin aspart 30 (BIAsp 30) in Asian adults with type 2 diabetes (T2DM), inadequately controlled on once- or twice-daily (BID) basal, premixed or self-mixed insulin. METHODS Participants (mean age 59.8 years, HbA1c 8.4%, FPG 7.9 mmol/L, BMI 25.4 kg/m(2)) were randomised 2:1 to BID IDegAsp (n=282) or BIAsp 30 (n=142) and continued existing metformin treatment. Insulins were administered with breakfast and main evening meal, titrated to a pre-breakfast and pre-main evening meal self-measured plasma glucose target of 4-5 mmol/L. RESULTS IDegAsp achieved the primary endpoint of non-inferiority to BIAsp 30 for mean change in HbA₁c (estimated treatment difference [ETD] IDegAsp-BIAsp 30: 0.05% points [95% CI -0.10; 0.20]). IDegAsp was superior in lowering fasting plasma glucose (FPG) (ETD -1.06 mmol/L, 95% CI -1.43; -0.70, p<0.001), and resulted in a lower final mean daily insulin dose (0.79 U/kg vs 0.99 U/kg, estimated rate ratio [RR] 0.79, 95% CI 0.73; 0.85, p<0.0001). Rates of overall confirmed and severe hypoglycaemia were similar between treatments, while rate of nocturnal confirmed hypoglycaemia was numerically (p=ns) lower with IDegAsp. During the maintenance period there was a trend (p=ns) towards lower hypoglycaemia rates for IDegAsp. CONCLUSION In Asian adults with T2DM, IDegAsp BID effectively improves long-term glycaemic control, and compared to BIAsp 30, provides superior reductions in FPG with a lower dose, and numerically less nocturnal hypoglycaemia.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We investigated the relationship between insulin resistance reflected by homeostasis model assessment (HOMA-IR) index and serum HbA1c levels of obese children. MATERIAL AND METHODS This study included 70 obese and 60 normal weight healthy children between the ages of 3 and 15. Anthropometric measures and biochemical tests (fasting glucose, fasting insulin, HbA1c) were performed on all subjects. Plasma glucose levels were measured by the glucose oxidase method. Plasma insulin concentrations were measured by radioimmunoassay (RIA). HOMA-IR index was used to estimate insulin resistance. A cut-off HOMA-IR level of ≥2.5 was accepted. The HbA1c analysis was performed using high-pressure liquid chromatography. The statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 5. Student's unpaired t-test and the Mann-Whitney U test were used to determine statistical significance. RESULTS Gender distribution did not reveal significant difference among the obese (F: 48.6%, M: 51.4%) and the non-obese (F: 46.7%, M: 53.3%) groups. The mean age value was significantly higher in the obese group (10.09 ± 3.09) (p > 0.005) than the non-obese group (8.31 ± 3.14) (p < 0.05). The mean value of body mass index (BMI) was 25.55 ± 4.3 in the obese group and 16.63 ± 2.3 in the non-obese group. The mean HOMA-IR values of obese group (2.84 ± 1.77) was significantly higher than the non-obese group (1.50 ± 0.95) (p < 0.005). Insulin resistance was significantly higher in the obese group. Subjects with HOMA-IR ≥2.5 levels in the obese group had significantly higher HbA1c values than those with HOMA-IR <2.5 levels. CONCLUSIONS High HbA1c levels in obese children can be used as a screening tool to detect insulin sensitivity and resistance at an early stage.

Abstract
This study was aimed to assess the associations of hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), fasting plasma glucose (FPG), and 2h postload plasma glucose (2hPG) with β-cell function in the Chinese population. A total of 913 subjects underwent 75-g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and HbA1c testing. According to OGTT, isolated impaired fasting glucose (i-IFG) was defined as 5.6 mmol/l ≤ FPG < 7.0 mmol/l and 2hPG < 7.8 mmol/l; isolated impaired glucose tolerance (i-IGT) was defined as FPG < 5.6 mmol/l and 7.8 mmol/l ≤ 2hPG < 11.1 mmol/l. HbA1c 5.7-6.4 % was used to identify subjects with prediabetes. Insulin release was calculated by basal homeostasis model assessment of insulin secretion (HOMA-β), early-phase InsAUC30/GluAUC30, and total-phase InsAUC120/GluAUC120. β-cell function relative to insulin sensitivity was expressed as disposition index (DI). All indices of insulin sensitivity and β-cell function gradually decreased with increasing HbA1c, FPG, and 2hPG (all p < 0.01). β-cell function decreased precipitously when HbA1c exceeded 5.5 %. Compared with HbA1c, FPG showed stronger correlations with HOMA-β, InsAUC30/GluAUC30, InsAUC120/GluAUC120, DI30, and DI120 (all p < 0.05), and 2hPG was more closely related to DI30 and DI120 (all p < 0.01). Moreover, FPG was more strongly related to HOMA-β and InsAUC30/GluAUC30 than 2hPG (all p < 0.05). The combination of i-IFG and HbA1c 5.7-6.4 % showed the greatest reduction in DI30 and DI120 compared with HbA1c 5.7-6.4 % alone, i-IGT, or i-IFG (p < 0.05). In conclusion, HbA1c could be used as a marker to identify subjects with impaired β-cell function, but OGTT performs better than HbA1c. The combination of HbA1c and FPG is a simple and sensitive method to evaluate β-cell function.

Effect of baseline HbA1c level on the development of diabetes by lifestyle intervention in primary healthcare settings: insights from subanalysis of the Japan Diabetes Prevention Program. BMJ Open Diabetes Res Care 2014; 2:e000003. [PMID: 25452854 PMCID: PMC4212559 DOI: 10.1136/bmjdrc-2013-000003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/19/2013] [Revised: 03/24/2014] [Accepted: 03/26/2014] [Indexed: 11/04/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine the effects of a lifestyle intervention on the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) among participants with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), in particular in the subgroup with baseline glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels ≥5.7%, in primary healthcare settings. DESIGN Randomized controlled trial. SETTING 32 healthcare centers in Japan. PARTICIPANTS Participants with IGT, aged 30-60 years, were randomly assigned to either an intensive lifestyle intervention group (ILG) or a usual care group (UCG). INTERVENTIONS During the initial 6 months, participants in the ILG received four group sessions on healthy lifestyles by public health providers. An individual session was further conducted biannually during the 3 years. Participants in the UCG received usual care such as one group session on healthy lifestyles. OUTCOME MEASURES The primary endpoint was the development of T2DM based on an oral glucose tolerance test. RESULTS The mean follow-up period was 2.3 years. The annual incidence of T2DM were 2.7 and 5.1/100 person-years of follow-up in the ILG (n=145) and UCG (n=149), respectively. The cumulative incidence of T2DM was significantly lower in the ILG than in the UCG among participants with HbA1c levels ≥5.7% (log-rank=3.52, p=0.06; Breslow=4.05, p=0.04; Tarone-Ware=3.79, p=0.05), while this was not found among participants with HbA1c levels <5.7%. CONCLUSIONS Intensive lifestyle intervention in primary healthcare setting is effective in preventing the development of T2DM in IGT participants with HbA1c levels ≥5.7%, relative to those with HbA1c levels <5.7%. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER UMIN000003136.

Abstract
Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) has been recommended as an optional method for diagnosing diabetes. The impact of HbA1c on the diagnosis of diabetes has not been evaluated in China, a country with the greatest number of people with diabetes in the world. Hence, we aim to examine how well HbA1c performs as compared with fasting plasma glucose (FPG) for diagnosing diabetes in Chinese population. We conducted a cross-sectional analysis of 7,641 Chinese men and women aged ≥18 years using data from the China Health and Nutrition Survey 2009 in which FPG and standardized HbA1c were measured. HbA1c was measured with high-performance liquid chromatography system. Diabetes is defined as having FPG ≥7 mmol/l or HbA1c ≥6.5 %. Overall, 5.0 and 5.8 % had undiagnosed diabetes by FPG ≥7 mmol/l and HbA1c ≥6.5 %, respectively. Overlap between HbA1c- and FPG-based diagnosis of diabetes was limited (n = 214, 34.9 %). Similar trends were noted in both genders, all age groups, urban/rural settings, regions, body mass index (BMI) categories, waist circumference (WC) groups, and blood pressure status. Solely HbA1c-defined individuals exhibited higher levels of BMI, WC, total cholesterol, and hypersensitive C-reactive protein and lower levels of homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance. We note limited overlap between FPG- and HbA1c-based diagnosis of diabetes. The limited overlap between FPG- and HbA1c-based diagnosis of diabetes persisted in each evaluated subgroup. HbA1c criterion for the diagnosis of diabetes identifies individuals with a worse cardiovascular risk profile compared with FPG.

BMC Public Health 2013; 13:1045. [PMID: 24188743 PMCID: PMC3924337 DOI: 10.1186/1471-2458-13-1045] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2013] [Accepted: 10/31/2013] [Indexed: 01/14/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND In 2009, a unified definition of metabolic syndrome (MetS) was proposed, of which, the glycemic component is defined on the basis of fasting plasma glucose (FPG) level. Recently, the American Diabetes Association (ADA) recommended the use of glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) as an alternative to FPG to define prediabetes. Hence, we aim to compare the performance of HbA1c and FPG in the definition of glycemic component of the MetS among Chinese adults. METHODS We conducted a cross-sectional analysis of 7641 Chinese participants aged ≥18 years using data from the China Health and Nutrition Survey 2009. MetS was defined according to the consensus criteria in 2009. We compared the use of HbA1c versus FPG in the definition of the glycemic component of MetS. Increased HbA1c value was defined following the criterion of HbA1c cut-off point of ≥5.7% recommended by the ADA. RESULTS Overall, 1136 (14.9%) had MetS according to FPG ≥ 5.6 mmol/l, and 1640 (21.5%) had MetS according to HbA1c ≥ 5.7%. Compared with individuals with FPG-based diagnosis of MetS, individuals with HbA1c-based diagnosis of MetS were older, had higher levels of LDL-C, magnesium, and transferrin, and lower levels of uric acid. Of those found to have MetS according to either FPG or HbA1c (n = 2008), overlap between HbA1c- and FPG-based diagnosis of MetS was limited (n = 768, 38.2%). The overlap index regarding MetS diagnosed by FPG or HbA1c persisted low in each evaluated subgroup (≤ 50.0%). CONCLUSIONS We note limited overlap and poor agreement between FPG- and HbA1c-based diagnosis of MetS. Screening MetS through introduction of HbA1c in addition to FPG could contribute to identification of more people with MetS.

Abstract
A key contemporary trend emerging in big data science is the quantified self (QS)-individuals engaged in the self-tracking of any kind of biological, physical, behavioral, or environmental information as n=1 individuals or in groups. There are opportunities for big data scientists to develop new models to support QS data collection, integration, and analysis, and also to lead in defining open-access database resources and privacy standards for how personal data is used. Next-generation QS applications could include tools for rendering QS data meaningful in behavior change, establishing baselines and variability in objective metrics, applying new kinds of pattern recognition techniques, and aggregating multiple self-tracking data streams from wearable electronics, biosensors, mobile phones, genomic data, and cloud-based services. The long-term vision of QS activity is that of a systemic monitoring approach where an individual's continuous personal information climate provides real-time performance optimization suggestions. There are some potential limitations related to QS activity-barriers to widespread adoption and a critique regarding scientific soundness-but these may be overcome. One interesting aspect of QS activity is that it is fundamentally a quantitative and qualitative phenomenon since it includes both the collection of objective metrics data and the subjective experience of the impact of these data. Some of this dynamic is being explored as the quantified self is becoming the qualified self in two new ways: by applying QS methods to the tracking of qualitative phenomena such as mood, and by understanding that QS data collection is just the first step in creating qualitative feedback loops for behavior change. In the long-term future, the quantified self may become additionally transformed into the extended exoself as data quantification and self-tracking enable the development of new sense capabilities that are not possible with ordinary senses. The individual body becomes a more knowable, calculable, and administrable object through QS activity, and individuals have an increasingly intimate relationship with data as it mediates the experience of reality.

Abstract
The concepts of health and health care are moving towards the notion of personalized preventive health maintenance and away from an exclusive focus on the cure of disease. This is against the backdrop of contemporary public health challenges that include increasing costs, worsening outcomes, ‘diabesity’ epidemics, and anticipated physician shortages. Personalized preventive medicine could be critical to solving public health challenges at their causal root. This paper sets forth a vision and plan for the realization of preventive medicine by 2050 and examines efforts already underway such as participatory health initiatives, the era of big health data, and qualitative shifts in mindset.
