Abstract
AIMS To investigate the association between glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) levels and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) incidents in the general population, and the association between HbA1c levels and mortality in patients with COPD. MATERIALS AND METHODS We investigated the association of HbA1c levels with COPD risk in the general population in the UK Biobank, using data from 420 065 participants. Survival analysis was conducted for 18 854 patients with COPD. We used restricted cubic spline analysis to assess the dose-response relationship between HbA1c levels and COPD risk and survival. Cox proportional hazards regression models were used to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). RESULTS During a median follow-up of 12.3 years, 11 556 COPD cases were recorded. HbA1c had a non-linear relationship with COPD risk (p for non-linearity < .05). Compared with the quintile 2 (32.2-<34.3 mmol/mol), those with HbA1c levels above 38.7 mmol/mol (quintile 5) had a 22% (HR, 1.22, 95% CI: 1.15-1.30) higher risk of COPD. Compared with the HbA1c decile 2 (30.5-<32.2 mmol/mol), the HRs (95% CI) of COPD risk were 1.16 (1.03-1.30) and 1.36 (1.24-1.50) in the lowest HbA1c decile (<30.5 mmol/mol) and highest decile (≥41.0 mmol/mol), respectively. The increased COPD risk associated with HbA1c was more pronounced in younger, current smokers, passive smokers, and participants with a higher Townsend deprivation index (all p for interaction < .05). Among patients with COPD, 4569 COPD cases died (488 because of COPD) during a median follow-up of 5.4 years. Regarding COPD survival, HbA1c had a non-linear relationship with all-cause death (p for non-linearity < .05). Those with HbA1c quintile 5 (≥38.7 mmol/mol) had a 23% (HR, 1.23, 95% CI: 1.10-1.37) higher risk of all-cause death compared with the quintile 2 (32.2-<34.3 mmol/mol). Compared with the HbA1c decile 4 (33.3-<34.3 mmol/mol), those in the lowest HbA1c decile (<30.5 mmol/mol) and highest HbA1c decile (≥41.0 mmol/mol) had 22% (HR, 1.22; 95% CI: 1.01-1.47) and 28% (HR, 1.28; 95% CI: 1.11-1.48) higher risk for overall death. However, no significant association was observed between HbA1c levels and the risk of COPD-specific death. CONCLUSIONS Our findings indicated that lower and higher HbA1c levels were associated with a higher risk of COPD. In COPD cases, lower and higher HbA1c levels were associated with a higher COPD all-cause death risk.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) may coexist with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Patients with COPD have an increased risk of developing T2DM compared with a control but, on the other side, hyperglycaemia and DM have been associated with reduced predicted levels of lung function. The mechanistic relationships between these two diseases are complicated, multifaceted, and little understood, yet they can impact treatment strategy. The potential risks and benefits for patients with T2DM treated with pulmonary drugs and the potential pulmonary risks and benefits for patients with COPD when taking antidiabetic drugs should always be considered. The interaction between the presence and/or treatment of COPD, risk of infection, presence and/or treatment of T2DM and risk of acute exacerbations of COPD (AECOPDs) can be represented as a vicious circle; however, several strategies may help to break this circle. The most effective approach to simultaneously treating T2DM and COPD is to interfere with the shared inflammatory substrate, thus targeting both lung inflammation (COPD) and vascular inflammation (DM). In any case, it is always crucial to establish glycaemic management since the reduction in lung function found in people with diabetes might decrease the threshold for clinical manifestations of COPD. In this article, we examine possible connections between COPD and T2DM as well as pharmacological strategies that could focus on these connections.

Abstract
Patients with type 2 diabetes are at a higher risk of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma than the general population. In addition, emerging evidence suggests that traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) might be beneficial for patients with type 2 diabetes. We investigated whether TCM use was associated with a reduced risk of respiratory hospitalizations in patients with type 2 diabetes. Conducting a retrospective cohort study, we used data retrieved from the NDCMP database. Among 56,035 patients, 5226 were classified as TCM users; 50,809 were classified as TCM nonusers. Both groups were analyzed until the end of 2011 to examine the incidence of respiratory hospitalizations by using a Cox proportional hazards model to evaluate effects of TCM use on respiratory hospitalizations. During the 6-year study follow-up period, the incidence density rates of COPD- and asthma-related hospitalization were estimated to be 13.03 and 4.47 per 10,000 patient-years for TCM nonusers and 10.08 and 3.28 per 10,000 patient-years for TCM users, respectively. The HR of COPD-related hospitalization in TCM users was 0.88 (95% CI = 0.79-0.99); and the HR of asthma-related hospitalization in TCM users was 0.81 (95% CI = 0.66-1.00). Stratified analyses revealed that effects of TCM use were stronger among individuals who had diabetes for <3 years. As a part of Integrative Medicine, our study results demonstrate that TCM use was associated with a significant reduced risk of respiratory hospitalizations, especially in patients with diabetes for <3 years.

Abstract
Background Blood glucose stability has recently been considered important in the treatment of diabetes. Both hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia can frequently occur in patients with diabetes undergoing hemodialysis. This study aimed to determine the usefulness of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) for glycemic control and glycemic variability stabilization in patients with diabetes undergoing hemodialysis. Materials and methods Eighteen patients aged ≥18 years with type 1 or 2 diabetes and ≥3 months on hemodialysis at the Eulji Medical Center, Daejeon, Republic of Korea between November 2021 and May 2022 were included. Patients underwent 7 days CGM twice: the baseline study period (T0) and the follow-up study period (T1), at a 12 weeks interval. Physicians modified the treatment strategy according to the T0 results, and then patients conducted T1. As indicators of glycemic control, the mean glucose levels, glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), and time in range were measured. As indicators of glycemic variability, standard deviation (SD) and % coefficient variation (%CV) were measured. Results Data from 18 patients were analyzed. The mean glucose levels, HbA1c, SD, and %CV improved in T1 compared to T0 (P < 0.05). During T0, the mean glucose level was significantly lower on a day with hemodialysis than on a day without (P < 0.05), and SD and %CV were significantly higher on a day with hemodialysis than on a day without (P < 0.05). After the physicians modified the treatment according to the T0 results, there were no differences in the mean glucose levels, SD, and %CV between days with and without hemodialysis during T1. Conclusion Continuous glucose monitoring could be a promising tool for individualizing treatment strategies in patients with diabetes undergoing hemodialysis.

Abstract
Abstract:
: One of the important comorbidities that has a longstanding research history in COPD is diabetes. Although there are multiple studies on COPD and diabetes the exact links between these two conditions is still controversial. The exact prevalence of diabetes in COPD varies between 2 and 37 %. The true nature of this relationship is complex and may be partially related to the traditional risk factors for diabetes such as smoking, cardiovascular disease and use of steroids. However, COPD is a disease that has multiple phenotypes and is no longer regarded as a homogeneous condition. It seems that some COPD patients who have overlap with asthma or the obese phenotype at a particular risk for T2DM. The aim of this review is to analyze the prevalence, risk factors and possible interactions between COPD and diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
Background: To explore the association between visit-to-visit variability of glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and cardiovascular outcomes in the patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) of the Action to Control Cardiovascular Risk in Diabetes (ACCORD) study. Methods: We conducted a post-hoc analysis on the ACCORD population including 9,544 participants with T2DM. Visit-to-visit variability of HbA1c was defined as the individual SD, coefficient of variation (CV), and variability independent of the mean (VIM) across HbA1c measurements. The clinical measurements included primary outcome [the first occurrence of non-fatal myocardial infarction (MI), non-fatal stroke or cardiovascular death], total mortality, cardiovascular death, non-fatal MI event, non-fatal stroke, total stroke, heart failure, macrovascular events, and major coronary events (CHD). Results: Over a median follow-up of 4.85 years, 594 and 268 participants experienced all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality, respectively. After adjusting for baseline HbA1c levels and confounding factors, the adjusted hazard ratio (HR) comparing patients in the highest vs. the lowest quartile CV of HbA1c variability was 1.61 (95% CI 1.29–2.00) for the primary outcome. Similar trends for secondary outcome were also observed. There was no association between HbA1c fluctuation and non-fatal stroke. Noticeably, there was 66% greater risk for the all-cause mortality among patients in the highest vs. the lowest quartile (HR 1.66, 95% CI 1.27–2.17). Conclusions: Greater variability of HbA1c is associated with higher risk for cardiovascular complications and all-cause death in T2DM. Our study stresses the significance of well-controlled glycemic levels for improving cardiovascular outcomes. Further randomized clinical trials are required to confirm these findings.

Abstract
Pulmonary damage and function impairment were frequently noted in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). However, the relationship between lung function and glycemic status in non-DM subjects was not well-known. Here, we evaluated the association of longitudinal changes of lung function parameters with longitudinal changes of glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) in non-DM participants. The study enrolled participants without prior type 2 DM, hypertension, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) from the Taiwan Biobank database. Laboratory profiles and pulmonary function parameters, including forced vital capacity (FVC) and forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1), were examined at baseline and follow-up. Finally, 7055 participants were selected in this study. During a mean 3.9-year follow-up, FVC and FEV1 were significantly decreased over time (both p < 0.001). In the multivariable analysis, the baseline (unstandardized coefficient β = −0.032, p < 0.001) and longitudinal change (unstandardized coefficient β = −0.025, p = 0.026) of FVC were negatively associated with the baseline and longitudinal change of HbA1c, respectively. Additionally, the longitudinal change of FVC was negatively associated with the risk of newly diagnosed type 2 DM (p = 0.018). During a mean 3.9-year follow-up, our present study, including participants without type 2 DM, hypertension, and COPD, demonstrated that the baseline and longitudinal change of FVC were negatively and respectively correlated with the baseline and longitudinal change of HbA1c. Furthermore, compared to those without new-onset DM, participants with new-onset DM had a more pronounced decline of FVC over time.

Abstract
AIMS To evaluate the relationship between glycemic control and plasma glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) and the risk of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). METHODS We conducted a population-based, retrospective, nested, case-control study involving 124,876 patients with DM2 from the Canary Islands, Spain. From the cohort, we selected all COPD cases and, for each case, five control subjects who were COPD free. We analyzed the association between glycemic control, HbA1c level and incident COPD. RESULTS A total of 1320 incidence cases of COPD (1.06%) were identified and matched individually with 6600 controls according to age and sex. After multivariate adjustment, the COPD risk increased among patients with poor glycemic control compared to patients with good glycemic control [HbA1c levels <7% (53 mmol/mol)] (OR 1.18; 95% CI: 1.03-1.36). In comparison with patients exhibiting HbA1c levels <7% (53 mmol/mol), the risk of COPD was higher among people with HbA1c levels of 7-8% (53-64 mmol/mol) (OR 1.24; 95% CI: 1.05-1.47) and 8-9% (64-75 mmol/mol) (OR 1.31; 95% CI: 1.04-1.66). CONCLUSIONS Poor glycemic control reveals a weak association with increased risk of COPD in T2D patients.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a common disease with an increasing prevalence, characterised by persistent respiratory symptoms and airflow limitation. Apart from cigarette smoking, certain occupational and environmental exposures, low socioeconomic status and genetic factors may contribute to the pathogenesis of COPD. Comorbidities, e. g. diabetes mellitus (DM), can negatively affect quality of life, COPD outcomes and cardiovascular risk. The present narrative review considers the potential links between COPD and DM, such as systemic inflammation, oxidative stress, hypoxaemia and hyperglycaemia. The effects of antidiabetic drugs on lung function and COPD outcomes, as well as the possibility of common therapeutic modalities are also briefly considered. Further research is needed in this field to elucidate these relationships as well as their potential clinical implications in daily practice.

Abstract
It has become possible to measure blood glucose levels continuously from 24 h to approximately 2 weeks due to the recent development of relevant devices such as continuous glucose monitoring and flash glucose monitoring systems. This has enabled not only medical professionals but also patients to monitor details of glycemic variability (GV) which was not possible in the past. Details of GV for both short and intermediate periods can now be obtained, and it is important in patient care to appropriately evaluate the data obtained. Types of GV in terms of time frame vary from short-term to long-term. Several studies reported that long-term GV was related to micro- and macro-angiopathies in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, there are still unknown aspects regarding the relationships of various durations of GV with prognosis. Further clinical trials are required to examine the mechanism of GV and to evaluate whether GV can be a valuable therapeutic target in treatment of patients with T2DM.

Association of glycaemic variability evaluated by continuous glucose monitoring with diabetic peripheral neuropathy in type 2 diabetic patients. Endocrine 2018; 60:292-300. [PMID: 29411305 DOI: 10.1007/s12020-018-1546-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 32] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/20/2017] [Accepted: 01/23/2018] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN), a common microvascular complication of diabetes, is linked to glycaemic derangements. Glycaemic variability, as a pattern of glycaemic derangements, is a key risk factor for diabetic complications. We investigated the association of glycaemic variability with DPN in a large-scale sample of type 2 diabetic patients. METHODS In this cross-sectional study, we enrolled 982 type 2 diabetic patients who were screened for DPN and monitored by a continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) system between February 2011 and January 2017. Multiple glycaemic variability parameters, including the mean amplitude of glycaemic excursions (MAGE), mean of daily differences (MODD), standard deviation of glucose (SD), and 24-h mean glucose (24-h MG), were calculated from glucose profiles obtained from CGM. Other possible risks for DPN were also examined. RESULTS Of the recruited type 2 diabetic patients, 20.1% (n = 197) presented with DPN, and these patients also had a higher MAGE, MODD, SD, and 24-h MG than patients without DPN (p < 0.001). Using univariate and multiple logistic regression analyses, MAGE and conventional risks including diabetic duration, HOMA-IR, and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) were found to be independent contributors to DPN, and the corresponding odds ratios (95% confidence interval) were 4.57 (3.48-6.01), 1.10 (1.03-1.17), 1.24 (1.09-1.41), and 1.33 (1.15-1.53), respectively. Receiver operating characteristic analysis indicated that the optimal MAGE cutoff value for predicting DPN was 4.60 mmol/L; the corresponding sensitivity was 64.47%, and the specificity was 75.54%. CONCLUSIONS In addition to conventional risks including diabetic duration, HOMA-IR and HbA1c, increased glycaemic variability assessed by MAGE is a significant independent contributor to DPN in type 2 diabetic patients.

Population-based cohort study suggesting a significantly increased risk of developing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Diabetes Res Clin Pract 2018; 138:66-74.

Abstract
AIMS To investigate whether type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) increases the risk of developing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). METHODS This population-based cohort study used Taiwan's National Health insurance claim data to investigate the association of T2DM with the risk of COPD. A total of 716,623 pairs of people (patients with T2DM and their age-, sex-, and calendar year-matched controls) were identified in 2002-2003 and were followed until the occurrence of newly-diagnosed COPD or the end of 2011. Cox proportional hazard models were used to relate COPD incidence to T2DM. RESULTS People with T2DM experienced a higher incidence rate of COPD than controls (159.6 vs 122.7 per 104 person-years). After controlling for confounders, T2DM significantly increased the hazard of COPD (hazard ratio [HR] = 1.15, 95% confidence interval = 1.14-1.16). Stratified analysis indicated that the association between T2DM and COPD was slightly greater in women than in men (HR, 1.15 vs. 1.11) and in people aged <65 years than in people aged ≥65 years (HR, 1.17 vs. 1.05 in men; 1.16 vs. 1.13 in women). CONCLUSIONS Our findings demonstrated a modest association of T2DM with the risk of developing COPD, possibly shedding light into the adverse effects of hyperglycemia on pulmonary function.
