Nutritional Interventions in Older Persons with Type 2 Diabetes and Frailty: A Scoping Systematic Review. J Cardiovasc Dev Dis 2024; 11:289. [PMID: 39330347 DOI: 10.3390/jcdd11090289] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/11/2024] [Revised: 06/21/2024] [Accepted: 07/01/2024] [Indexed: 09/28/2024] Open
Abstract
In the elderly, the coexistence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and frailty is frequent. Much has been described about pharmacological management and glycemic control goals. However, there is a knowledge gap in terms of the objectives and characteristics of interventions, especially nutritional ones, for this population. A scoping review was performed to document the objectives, characteristics, and results of nutritional interventions in older people with T2DM and frailty. The five-stage framework of Arksey and O'Malley was used, as was the PRISMA extension for scoping reviews. The results stand out for three trends, as follows: (1) experimental studies with multicomponent intervention physical exercise programs and nutritional programs based on educational processes or behavioral intervention; (2) observational studies with an association of the kind of diet assessed by scales and their relation to stages of frailty; (3) a review that updates recommendations on pharmacological and non-pharmacological, diet, exercise, management, as well as glucose control goals for diabetes in frail older persons. Finally, the evidence shows that management of T2DM in older adults with frailty requires goals and interventions tailored to their functional capacity and health condition. The exercise, diet, and education programs reviewed have demonstrated their effectiveness in improving physical performance, reducing the risk of frailty or progression to more advanced stages, and achieving better glycemic control.

Ageing Res Rev 2024; 101:102461. [PMID: 39278273 DOI: 10.1016/j.arr.2024.102461] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2023] [Revised: 07/15/2024] [Accepted: 08/15/2024] [Indexed: 09/18/2024]
Abstract
Cognitive frailty (CF) is the conjunction of cognitive impairment without dementia and physical frailty. While predictors of each element are well-researched, mechanisms of their co-occurrence have not been integrated, particularly in terms of relationships between social, psychological, and biological factors. This interdisciplinary scoping review set out to categorise a heterogenous multidisciplinary literature to identify potential pathways and mechanisms of CF, and research gaps. Studies were included if they used the definition of CF OR focused on conjunction of cognitive impairment and frailty (by any measure), AND excluded studies on specific disease populations, interventions, epidemiology or prediction of mortality. Searches used Web of Science, PubMed and Science Direct. Search terms included "cognitive frailty" OR (("cognitive decline" OR "cognitive impairment") AND (frail*)), with terms to elicit mechanisms, predictors, causes, pathways and risk factors. To ensure inclusion of animal and cell models, keywords such as "behavioural" or "cognitive decline" or "senescence", were added. 206 papers were included. Descriptive analysis provided high-level categorisation of determinants from social and environmental through psychological to biological. Patterns distinguishing CF from Alzheimer's disease were identified and social and psychological moderators and mediators of underlying biological and physiological changes and of trajectories of CF development were suggested as foci for further research.

Association of metabolic syndrome and frailty with postoperative complications in older gastric cancer patients: A body composition perspective. Cancer Med 2024; 13:e70194. [PMID: 39315666 PMCID: PMC11420831 DOI: 10.1002/cam4.70194] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/19/2024] [Revised: 08/22/2024] [Accepted: 08/25/2024] [Indexed: 09/25/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare the characteristics of body compositions between metabolic syndrome (MetS) and frailty, and determine the independent and overlapping of MetS and frailty with postoperative complications among older patients with gastric cancer. DESIGN A prospectively observational study. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS Two hundred and eighty six older patients from 60 to 80 years undergoing radical gastrectomy for the first time. MEASUREMENTS MetS was diagnosed by the criteria from the 2020 edition of Chinese guideline for the prevention and treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus, and frailty was defined by frailty phenotype. An InBody770 impedance analyzer was used to measure body compositions and with 10 fat- and muscle-related indicators being included in this study. Based on the presence of frailty and MetS, patients were divided into the frailty group, MetS group, frailty+MetS group, and normal group, and the body compositions indicators of these groups were compared. Clavien-Dindo classification was used to grade the severity of postoperative complications. Univariate and multivariate regression models were performed to explore the independent and joint association of MetS and frailty with postoperative complications. RESULTS The incidence rate of MetS, frailty, and frailty+MetS being 20.3%, 15.7%, and 4.2% respectively. Compared with the normal group, both fat and muscle compositions were decreased significantly in the frailty group (p < 0.05), while the statistically significant difference of fat-to-muscle mass ratio (FMR) and skeletal muscle mass to visceral fat area ratio (SVR) were not observed (p > 0.05). In contrast, except SVR, the other indicators of the MetS group were higher than the normal group (p < 0.05). As to the frailty+MetS group, there was a significant increase in fat compositions and FMR, as well as a significant decline in SVR (p < 0.05), while the difference of muscle compositions was not statistically significant (p > 0.05). There was an association of frailty with postoperative total (OR = 3.068, 95% CI: 1.402-6.713) and severe (OR = 9.423, 95% CI: 2.725-32.589) complications, but no association was found of MetS alone. MetS coexisting with frailty was associated with the highest risk of both total (OR = 3.852, 95% CI: 1.020-14.539) and severe (OR = 12.096, 95% CI: 2.183-67.024) complications. CONCLUSIONS Both frailty and MetS coexisting with frailty had adverse effects on postoperative complications, which appeared greatly different characteristics in body compositions and therefore reinforced the importance of targeted nutritional or metabolic intervention. Although MetS alone were not significantly associated with postoperative complications, it is essential to focus on the causal relationship and development trend between MetS and frailty to prevent MetS from shifting into frailty, considering the highest risk in their coexistence state.

Abstract
AIM This observational longitudinal study aimed to explore the risk factors for disabilities in older Japanese individuals with diabetes at a frailty clinic, an outpatient clinic specializing in comprehensive geriatric assessments for older patients. METHODS The outcome was the onset of disability as a new certification of long-term care needs in outpatients aged ≥65 years. Multivariable Cox regression analyses examined the independent associations between the onset of disability and the variables that reached significance in the bivariate analysis, after adjusting for age and sex, years of education, and certification of need for support. RESULTS A total of 182 participants (mean age 77.8 years, 59.9% female) were included in the study. During a mean follow-up period of 1070 days, 28 patients (15.4%) developed disabilities. Multivariable analysis showed that poor glycemic control (higher levels of glycosylated albumin and HbA1c), frailty as measured by the Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS), cognitive decline as assessed by the revised Hasegawa Dementia Scale (especially "5 object recall" and verbal fluency as assessed by the number of "vegetable names"), poor adherence to medications, and reduced muscle mass were significantly associated with the development of disability. Multivariable Cox regression analyses revealed independent and significant associations between the development of disability and HbA1c ≥7.5%, CFS ≥4, and generating vegetable names≤9. CONCLUSION In identifying older patients with diabetes who are at risk of developing disabilities, it may be useful to evaluate glycemic control, CFS, cognition, and medication adherence. Verbal fluency tests using vegetable names may serve as simple tools for assessing the risk of disability. Geriatr Gerontol Int 2024; ••: ••-••.

[PMID: 39208059 PMCID: PMC11361436 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0309618] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2024] [Accepted: 08/12/2024] [Indexed: 09/04/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The prevalence of type 2 diabetes (DM) has been increasing globally, particularly among older adults who are more susceptible to DM-related complications. Elderly individuals with diabetes are at higher risk of developing hypoglycemia compared with younger diabetes patients. Hypoglycemia in elderly patients can result in serious consequences such as cognitive changes, increased risk of falls, heart and other vascular problems, and even high mortality rate. OBJECTIVE To assess prevalence, and factors associated with hypoglycemia events among geriatric outpatients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. METHODS The study was conducted at King Abdullah University Hospital (KAUH) at the outpatient diabetes clinic from October 1st, 2022 to August 1st, 2023. Variables such as socio-demographics, medication history, and comorbidities were obtained using electronic medical records. The prevalence of hypoglycemia was determined through patient interviews during their clinic visit. Patients were prospectively monitored for hospital admissions, emergency department visits, and mortality using electronic medical records over a three-month follow-up period. Logistic regression models were conducted to identify factors associated with hypoglycemia and hospital admissions/ emergency visits. Ethical Approval (Reference # 53/151/2022) was obtained on 19/9/2022. RESULTS Electronic medical charts of 640 patients who have type 2 diabetes mellitus and age ≥ 60 years were evaluated. The mean age ± SD was 67.19 (± 5.69) years. Hypoglycemia incidents with different severity levels were prevalent in 21.7% (n = 139) of the patients. Insulin administration was significantly associated with more hypoglycemic events compared to other antidiabetic medication. Patients with liver diseases had a significantly higher risk of hypoglycemia, with odds 7.43 times higher than patients without liver diseases. Patients with dyslipidemia also had a higher risk of hypoglycemia (odd ratio = 1.87). Regression analysis revealed that hypoglycemia and educational level were significant predictors for hospital admission and emergency department (ER) visits. Hypoglycemia was a positive predictor, meaning it increased the odds of these outcomes, while having a college degree or higher was associated with reduced odds of hospital admission and ER visits. CONCLUSION Current study identified a considerable prevalence of hypoglycemia among older patients with type 2 diabetes, particularly, among those with concurrent liver diseases and dyslipidemia. Furthermore, hypoglycemia was associated with an increased rate of emergency department visits and hospital admissions by 2 folds in this population.

Du J, Zhang D, Chen Y, Zhang W. Development of a prediction model for frailty among older Chinese individuals with type 2 diabetes residing in the community. Public Health Nurs 2024. [PMID: 39101656 DOI: 10.1111/phn.13377] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/11/2023] [Revised: 06/17/2024] [Accepted: 07/11/2024] [Indexed: 08/06/2024]
Abstract
METHODS The study employed a retrospective survey of 458 older individuals with T2D residing in a Chinese community, conducted between June 2020 and May 2021, to develop a predictive model for frailty. Among the participants, 83 individuals (18.1%) were diagnosed with frailty using modified frailty phenotypic criteria. The predictors of frailty in this community-dwelling older population with T2D were determined using least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression and multivariable logistic regression. These predictors were utilized to construct a nomogram. The discrimination, calibration, and medical usefulness of the prediction model were assessed through the C-index, calibration plot, and decision curve analysis (DCA), respectively. Additionally, internal validation of the prediction model was conducted using bootstrapping validation. RESULTS The developed nomogram for frailty prediction predominantly incorporated age, smoking status, regular exercise, depression, albumin (ALB) levels, sleep condition, HbA1c, and polypharmacy as significant predictors. Our prediction model demonstrated excellent discrimination and calibration, as evidenced by a C-index of 0.768 (95% CI, 0.714-0.822) and strong calibration. Internal validation yielded a C-index of 0.732, further confirming the reliability of the model. DCA indicated the utility of the nomogram in identifying frailty among the studied population. CONCLUSION The development of a predictive model enables a valuable estimation of frailty among community-dwelling older individuals with type 2 diabetes. This evidence-based tool provides crucial guidance to community healthcare professionals in implementing timely preventive measures to mitigate the occurrence of frailty in high-risk patients. By identifying established predictors of frailty, interventions and resources can be appropriately targeted, promoting better overall health outcomes and improved quality of life in this vulnerable population.

Association between comorbidities associated with diabetes and higher-level functional status in older patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: a cross sectional study. Eur Geriatr Med 2024; 15:1101-1110.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the association between comorbidities associated with diabetes and higher-level functional status as well as the relationship between comorbidities associated with diabetes and higher-level functional status in older patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who have better social networks. METHODS Participants were outpatients with type 2 diabetes aged ≥ 65 years, excluding individuals with severe cardiovascular or respiratory illness, hyperglycaemic crisis, type 1 diabetes, or diabetic foot. The Tokyo Metropolitan Institute of Gerontology Index of Competence (TMIG-IC) was used to evaluate the higher-level functional status. A TMIG-IC score of ≤ 9, instrumental activities of daily living (IADL) ≤ 4, intellectual activity or social role ≤ 3 were defined as decline in higher-level functional status. The comorbidities investigated included peripheral neuropathy, retinopathy, nephropathy, cognitive impairment, depression, frailty, sarcopenia, low muscle strength, stroke, heart disease, and arthritis. RESULTS The analysis included 198 patients (mean age 75.9 ± 5.7 years, male 60.1%). After adjusting for potential confounders, depression was associated with TMIG-IC (Prevalence ratio (PR) 2.34, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.44-3.82), low muscle strength was associated with IADL (PR 2.85, 95% CI 1.30-6.27), and frailty was associated with intellectual activity (PR 1.38, 95% CI 1.10-1.74). In the model with social networks added as a confounder, the relationship between depression or low muscle strength and higher-level functional status was not statistically significant. CONCLUSION Comorbidities of depression and low muscle strength for older patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus increase the risk of malfunctioning of higher-level functional status. Increased interactions with family, friends and neighbours may reduce this event.

[PMID: 38718946 DOI: 10.1016/j.jad.2024.05.030] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/16/2023] [Revised: 04/30/2024] [Accepted: 05/03/2024] [Indexed: 05/12/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Associations between daily functional trajectories and new-onset all-cause dementia and Alzheimer's disease (AD) and the role of body weight are underexplored. METHODS Data were from the Health and Retirement Study (HRS) 1994-2020. Daily function was assessed using (instrumental) activities of daily living ([I]ADLs). All-cause dementia and AD were defined by self- or proxy-reported physician diagnoses. Body weight was assessed using body mass index (BMI) and categorized as normal (18.5 kg/m2 ≤ BMI < 30 kg/m2) and abnormal (BMI < 18.5 kg/m2 or ≥30 kg/m2). The group-based trajectory modeling and Cox proportional hazards regression were utilized. RESULTS Of 18,763 adults included, 1236 developed new-onset dementia during a 10-year follow-up. The associations of ADL and IADL limitations at baseline with all-cause dementia and AD were much more pronounced in those with abnormal weight (P for interaction < 0.005). Five joint trajectories of ADL and IADL limitations were identified: No (72.7 %), Recovery (4.0 %), Recent emerging (16.4 %), Early emerging (4.8 %), and Severe (2.1 %). Furthermore, the 'Severe' joint trajectory (vs. 'No') was associated with 3.57- and 3.59-times higher risks of new-onset all-cause dementia and AD in participants with abnormal weight (P for interaction = 0.002 and 0.005). Notably, the Recovery joint trajectory (vs. No) was not associated with increased risks of all-cause dementia or AD. LIMITATIONS Self-/proxy-reported all-cause dementia and AD may introduce misclassification bias. Lifestyle factors were not quantified. BMI at baseline, but not its trajectory, was utilized. Potential reverse causation deserved attention. CONCLUSIONS Body weight control can help reduce the risk of progression from functional limitations to all-cause dementia and AD.

Methods This is a retrospective analysis of 102 cases of T2DM in the Brain Hospital of Hunan Province, China from April 2020 to February 2023. Of them, 49 patients received conventional drug treatment (control group), and 53 patients received GQD combined with dietary management on the basis of conventional drugs (observation group). Treatment efficacy was calculated, and blood glucose levels before and after the treatment, blood lipid-related indicators, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and adiponectin (ADP) levels, and incidence of adverse reactions were compared between the two groups. Results The total efficacy of the observation group (92.45%) was significantly higher than that of the control group (75.51%) (P<0.05). After the treatment, blood glucose and lipid indicators in both groups were significantly improved compared to pretreatment levels, and were significantly better in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.05). After the treatment, TNF-α levels in both groups decreased compared to before the treatment, and were significantly lower in the observation group compared to the control group. Levels of ADP after the treatment increased, and were significantly higher in the observation group compared to the control group (P<0.05). Conclusions When taken as an adjunct to the conventional drug regimen, GQD combined with dietary management can effectively regulate blood glucose and lipid metabolism in patients with T2DM and MetS (T2DM MetS), improve TNF-α and ADP levels, and enhance disease treatment effectiveness.

Abstract
The use of medicinal plants is integral to addressing liver, heart, lung, and other metabolic issues. These plants are rich in vitamins, minerals, flavonoids, and alkaloids, which collectively help in lowering intestinal glucose absorption and increasing insulin secretion by pancreatic tissues. Elemental analysis, encompassing major, minor, and trace elements, was performed on various parts (leaves, roots, and seeds) of 16 anti-diabetic medicinal plants collected from different regions of Swat and Peshawar in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KPK), Pakistan. This analysis utilized proton-induced X-ray emission (PIXE) and inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES) techniques. Our PIXE and ICP-OES analysis revealed the presence of major (Ca, K, S, P), minor (Si, Cl), and trace (Al, Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn, Se, Cr, and Sc) elements in various parts (leaves, roots, and seeds) of the 16 anti-diabetic medicinal plants studied. Specifically, elements such as Ca, K, Cr, Cu, Mn, Zn, and Se were detected, all of which are known to contribute in maintaining normal glucose metabolism. Notably, Zn and Se are crucial trace elements for the synthesis, secretion, and action of insulin. Significant Zn concentrations were observed in ten anti-diabetic medicinal plants: Albizia lebbeck (AL), Atropa acuminata (AA), Avena fatua (AF), Citrus medica (CM), Commiphora wightii (CW), Cymbopogon citratus (CC), Daucus carota (DC), Ziziphus mauritiana (FM), Hyoscyamus niger (HN), and Martynia annua (MA), and significant Se concentrations were observed in twelve medicinal plants, i.e., Albizia lebbeck (AL), Allium sativum (AS), Atropa acuminata (AA), Avena fatua (AF), Cannabis sativa (CS), Capparis spinosa (CaS), Commiphora wightii (CW), Cymbopogon citratus (CC), Datura alba (DA), Daucus carota (DC), Ziziphus mauritiana (FM), and Hyoscyamus niger (HN). Our study's elemental analysis using PIXE and ICP-OES on various parts of 16 medicinal plants identified a significant number of useful elements. Elements such as Ca, K, S, P, Al, Si, Cl, Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn, Se, and Cr were identified and quantified. These findings support the potential use of these plants in managing diabetes and highlight the importance of elemental profiling in understanding their therapeutic properties.

Abstract
Approximately 1 in 3 (or 80 million) Chinese age 60 years or older are living with type 2 diabetes in China. New perspectives are needed to understand the intricate phenomenon of diabetes self-management (DSM) in older Chinese adults. Guided by the expanded Tripartite Model of Self-Management, this study aimed to identify the inter-relationships between the tripartite components simultaneously and their influencing factors. This cross-sectional study included a stratified random sample of 98 community-dwelling adults age 60 or older with type 2 diabetes. Findings revealed distinct predictors for knowledge about DSM, DSM behaviors and coping. There were significant inter-relationships among the tripartite components. The theoretical model was a good fit for the data. This study provides valuable insights into the complex relationships between knowledge about DSM, DSM behaviors, and coping strategies, offering direct implications for improving the health outcomes of older adults with diabetes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Frailty has been identified as a risk factor for adverse outcomes in older adults with diabetes. This study aimed to investigate the impact of frailty on the prognosis of older adults with diabetes through a systematic review and meta-analysis, with the goal of offering insights for clinical decision-making. METHODS PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane were systematically searched from inception to September 10th, 2023. Reviewers independently selected studies, extracted data and evaluated the quality of studies. Stata 15.1 Software was used to perform the meta-analysis. The primary outcomes of this study were mortality, hospitalization and disability, and the secondary outcomes were diabetes complications (including nephropathy, microvascular complications, macroangiopathy, cardiovascular events, hypoglycemia) and urolithiasis. RESULTS A total of 14 studies were included in this study, with low risk of bias and moderate to good quality. The results showed that frailty increased the risk of mortality (HR 1.91, 95% CI 1.55-2.35, P < .001), hospitalization (HR 2.19, 95% CI 1.53-3.13, P < .001), and disability in older adults with diabetes (HR 3.84, 95% CI 2.35-6.28, P < .001). In addition, frailty was associated with diabetes complications (including nephropathy, microvascular complications, macroangiopathy, cardiovascular events, hypoglycemia), urolithiasis. CONCLUSIONS Frailty is an important predictor of adverse outcomes, such as mortality, hospitalization, and disability in older adults with diabetes. Accurate assessment of the frailty in older adults with diabetes can help improve the adverse outcomes of patients.

[PMID: 38932443 DOI: 10.1111/jocn.17336] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/25/2024] [Revised: 05/31/2024] [Accepted: 06/10/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The coexistence of frailty and type 2 diabetes mellitus in the older population heightens the risk of adverse events. However, research on functional and wellness factors associated with frailty in this population is limited. PURPOSE To investigate the associations of physical performance, functional dependency, physical activity, nutritional status, sleep, self-perceived health and depression with frailty in community-dwelling older adults with coexisting frailty and type 2 diabetes mellitus. DESIGN Cross-sectional. METHODS The study included 123 community-dwelling older adults (73.7 ± 6.0 years) with pre-frailty/frailty and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Physical performance (Short Physical Performance Battery), functional dependency (Barthel Index and Lawton & Brody), physical activity and inactivity (GeneActiv wrist-worn accelerometer), malnutrition risk (Mini Nutritional Assessment), sleep (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index), self-perceived health (EuroQoL 5-Dimension 3-Level) and depression (Yesavage 15-item-Geriatric-Depression-Scale) were evaluated through personal interviews. Principal component analysis (PCA) was performed to categorize the variables into components, and logistic regressions were used to propose the best-fitted model for each component. RESULTS The PCA identified four components: (i) physical performance, with gait speed and leg mean velocity as the main variables associated with frailty; (ii) balance, showing significant associations with monopodal balance; (iii) daily activities, with moderate to vigorous physical activity and the Lawton and Brody score as the main variables associated with frailty within this component; and (iv) wellness factors, with nutritional status, self-perceived health and depression score as the primary variables associated with frailty. CONCLUSIONS This research underscores the significance of physical function and daily activities as protective factors against frailty in community-dwelling older adults with coexisting frailty and type 2 diabetes mellitus. The health dimension contributes both protective and risk factors, emphasizing the need for comprehensive assessments in managing frailty in this population. REPORTING METHOD The study adhered to the STROBE checklist. PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION No patient or public contribution.

Abstract
Diabetes represents a major public health concern with a considerable impact on human life and healthcare expenditures. It is now well established that diabetes is characterized by a severe skeletal muscle pathology that limits functional capacity and quality of life. Increasing evidence indicates that diabetes is also one of the most prevalent disorders characterized by impaired skeletal muscle regeneration, yet underlying mechanisms and therapeutic treatments remain poorly established. In this review, we describe the cellular and molecular alterations currently known to occur during skeletal muscle regeneration in people with diabetes and animal models of diabetes, including its associated comorbidities, e.g., obesity, hyperinsulinemia, and insulin resistance. We describe the role of myogenic and non-myogenic cell types on muscle regeneration in conditions with or without diabetes. Therapies for skeletal muscle regeneration and gaps in our knowledge are also discussed, while proposing future directions for the field.

Abstract
Objectives To investigate the potential mediating role of cognitive impairment on the link between type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and mortality among elderly individuals using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) database. Methods Totally, 1,891 individuals from the NHANES database were included in this cohort study. All-cause mortality was considered study endpoint. Cognitive impairment was assessed by digit symbol substitution test (DSST). Adopted weighted logistic regression analyses to explore the relationship of T2DM with cognitive impairment. Constructed weighted Cox proportional hazard models to investigate the relationship of T2DM with all-cause mortality. We employed distribution-of-the-product method to investigate the mediating effect. RMediation software package was used to calculate the 95% confidence interval (CI) of the distribution-of-the-product. If CI does not contain 0, it suggests a significant mediation effect. Results The findings from the weighted logistic regression revealed that individuals with T2DM had a significantly higher likelihood of experiencing cognitive impairment [odds ratio =1.86, 95% CI: 1.39-2.49]. The result showed that T2DM was related to an increased all-cause mortality (hazard ratio=1.37, 95%CI: 1.01-1.87). Importantly, the mediation effect of cognitive impairment on the relationship of T2DM with all-cause mortality is significant (95%CI: 0.06-0.59). The percentage of mediation effect was calculated as 16.2%. Conclusion Our study suggested that the presence of cognitive impairment plays a significant role in explaining the link between T2DM and all-cause mortality in older individuals.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Older adults with diabetes mellitus require drug treatment considering their frailty, cognitive function, and hypoglycemia. OBJECTIVE We investigated the association between diabetic pharmacologic therapy and both diabetic complications and frailty across eight diabetes-specific outpatient clinics nationwide. METHODS Participants (aged 60-80 years) who had type 2 diabetes and did not require nursing care were included in the study. Basic attributes, patient background, complications, hypoglycemic status, body weight, body composition, blood tests, grip strength, and Kihon Checklist (a frailty index) and self-care scores were obtained. Descriptive statistics, t-test, chi-square test, and regression analyses were employed for evaluation. RESULTS Overall, 417 participants were included (224 men, 193 women, mean age 70.1 ± 5.4 years, diabetes duration 14.9 ± 10.9 years, body mass index 24.5 ± 3.8, glycated hemoglobin 7.22 ± 0.98%, proportion of individuals with frailty and prefrailty, 19.9% and 41.0%, respectively). All drugs were used more frequently in prefrailty conditions. Each diabetes medication was related to complications, body composition, and frailty, as follows: sulfonylurea (lower hypoglycemia); glinide (severe hypoglycemia, retinopathy, weaker grip strength, high Kihon Checklist score, decreased physical activities); alpha-glucosidase inhibitors (no association); biguanide (high body mass index, high body fat, stronger grip strength); thiazolidinedione (decreased instrumental activities of daily living); dipeptidyl-peptidase-4 inhibitors (no association); sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors; retinopathy, high body mass index and Kihon Checklist score, and depressive mood); glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (high body mass index and body fat and poor nutritional status); and insulin preparations (hypoglycemia, retinopathy, neuropathy, nephropathy, cardiovascular diseases, weaker grip strength, and high Kihon Checklist score and physical inactivity). CONCLUSIONS Some formulations, such as glinide, sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors, and insulin, are associated with an increased frequency of frailty, warranting careful and individualized diabetes treatment.

Abstract
A high prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MS) and cardiovascular disease among low-income individuals has often been reported. However, there is still a lack of research on the relationship between basic livelihood security (BLS) and MS. This study investigated the prevalence of MS according to activity type, dietary habits, and the nutrient intake characteristics of individuals receiving BLS. Data from 14,803 men and 20,299 women were analyzed to assess the association between receiving BLS and MS. The associations between MS and various factors were analyzed separately in men and women by logistic regression analysis. In this cohort, 5.9% of men and 6.8% of women received BLS; of these, 46.9% and 47.7% had MS, respectively. High caloric intake, low-frequency breakfast consumption, and no nutritional education were associated with MS in both men and women. Among those with a low-frequency walking habit and strength training activity type, MS increased by 1.58 and 1.57 times in men and by 1.47 and 2.16 times in women, respectively. Men who were sedentary for 8 h or more had an increased risk of MS, but there was no association between these in women. BLS nutritional intake characteristics were high in carbohydrates and fat and low in dietary fiber and vitamin C (p < 0.05). In conclusion, establishing a healthy eating pattern through nutritional education and increasing walking and strength training may reduce the risk of MS.

Abstract
This article focuses on a range of non-pharmacological strategies for managing sarcopenia in chronic diseases, including exercise, dietary supplements, traditional Chinese exercise, intestinal microecology, and rehabilitation therapies for individuals with limited limb movement. By analyzing multiple studies, the article aims to summarize the available evidence to manage sarcopenia in individuals with chronic diseases. The results strongly emphasize the role of resistance training in addressing chronic diseases and secondary sarcopenia. Maintaining the appropriate frequency and intensity of resistance training can help prevent muscle atrophy and effectively reduce inflammation. Although aerobic exercise has limited ability to improve skeletal muscle mass, it does have some positive effects on physical function. Building upon this, the article explores the potential benefits of combined training approaches, highlighting their helpfulness for overall quality of life. Additionally, the article also highlights the importance of dietary supplements in combating muscle atrophy in chronic diseases. It focuses on the importance of protein intake, supplements rich in essential amino acids and omega-3, as well as sufficient vitamin D to prevent muscle atrophy. Combining exercise with dietary supplements appears to be an effective strategy for preventing sarcopenia, although the optimal dosage and type of supplement remain unclear. Furthermore, the article explores the potential benefits of intestinal microecology in sarcopenia. Probiotics, prebiotics, and bacterial products are suggested as new treatment options for sarcopenia. Additionally, emerging therapies such as whole body vibration training, blood flow restriction, and electrical stimulation show promise in treating sarcopenia with limited limb movement. Overall, this article provides valuable insights into non-pharmacological strategies for managing sarcopenia in individuals with chronic diseases. It emphasizes the importance of a holistic and integrated approach that incorporates exercise, nutrition, and multidisciplinary interventions, which have the potential to promote health in the elderly population. Future research should prioritize high-quality randomized controlled trials and utilize wearable devices, smartphone applications, and other advanced surveillance methods to investigate the most effective intervention strategies for sarcopenia associated with different chronic diseases.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is known as the first non-communicable global epidemic. It is estimated that 537 million people have DM, but the condition has been properly diagnosed in less than half of these patients. Despite numerous preventive measures, the number of DM cases is steadily increasing. The state of chronic hyperglycaemia in the body leads to numerous complications, including diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM). A number of pathophysiological mechanisms are behind the development and progression of cardiomyopathy, including increased oxidative stress, chronic inflammation, increased synthesis of advanced glycation products and overexpression of the biosynthetic pathway of certain compounds, such as hexosamine. There is extensive research on the treatment of DCM, and there are a number of therapies that can stop the development of this complication. Among the compounds used to treat DCM are antiglycaemic drugs, hypoglycaemic drugs and drugs used to treat myocardial failure. An important element in combating DCM that should be kept in mind is a healthy lifestyle-a well-balanced diet and physical activity. There is also a group of compounds-including coenzyme Q10, antioxidants and modulators of signalling pathways and inflammatory processes, among others-that are being researched continuously, and their introduction into routine therapies is likely to result in greater control and more effective treatment of DM in the future. This paper summarises the latest recommendations for lifestyle and pharmacological treatment of cardiomyopathy in patients with DM.

Abstract
Biological aging, characterized by changes in metabolism and physicochemical properties of cells, has an impact on public health. Environment and lifestyle, including factors like diet and physical activity, seem to play a key role in healthy aging. Several studies have shown that regular physical activity can enhance antioxidant defense mechanisms, including the activity of enzymes such as superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase, and glutathione peroxidase. However, intense or prolonged exercise can also lead to an increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) production temporarily, resulting in oxidative stress. This phenomenon is referred to as "exercise-induced oxidative stress". The relationship between physical activity and oxidative stress in aging is complex and depends on various factors such as the type, intensity, duration, and frequency of exercise, as well as individual differences in antioxidant capacity and adaptation to exercise. In this review, we analyzed what is reported by several authors regarding the role of physical activity on oxidative stress in the aging process as well as the role of hormesis and physical exercise as tools for the prevention and treatment of sarcopenia, an aging-related disease. Finally, we reported what has recently been studied in relation to the effect of physical activity and sport on aging in women.

Abstract
Background AAA is a fatal condition that commonly occurs during vascular surgery. Nutritional status exerts a significant influence on the prognosis of various pathological conditions Scores from the CONUT screening tool have been shown to predict outcomes of certain malignancies and chronic diseases. However, the ramifications of nutritional status on AAA patients undergoing EVAR have not been elucidated in prior studies. In this study, we aimed to elucidate the correlation between CONUT scores and postoperative prognostic outcomes in patients with AAA undergoing EVAR. Methods This was a retrospective review of 177 AAA patients treated with EVAR from June 2018 to November 2019 in a single center. Patient characteristics, CONUT scores, and postoperative status were collected. These patients were stratified into groups A and B according to CONUT scores. Subsequently, a comparative analysis of the baseline characteristics between the two cohorts was conducted. Cox proportional hazards and logistic regression analyses were employed to identify the autonomous predictors of mid-term mortality and complications, respectively. Results Compared with group A, patients in group B had higher midterm mortality (p < 0.001). Univariate analysis showed that CONUT scores; respiratory diseases; stent types; preoperative Hb, CRP, PT, and Fb levels were risk factors for death. Multivariate analysis confirmed that CONUT score [HR, 1.276; 95% CI, 1.029-1.584; p = 0.027] was an independent risk factor for mortality. Logistic regression analysis showed that prior arterial disease, smoking, and D-dimer levels were risk factors, although multivariate analysis showed smoking (OR, 3.492; 95% CI, 1.426-8.553; p = 0.006) was an independent risk factor. Kaplan-Meier curves showed that patients in group B had shorter mid-term survival than those in group A (log-rank p < 0.001). Conclusion Malnutrition was strongly associated with mid-term mortality in patients with infrarenal AAA treated with EVAR.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Metabolic syndrome is a cluster of metabolic disorders increasing the risk of cardiovascular disease and diabetes. Dietary patterns are supposed to be important and controllable factors in developing metabolic syndrome. The purpose of this study was to investigate the association of dietary patterns with metabolic syndrome and its components. SUBJECTS/METHODS Cross-sectional data were extracted from the Bandare-Kong cohort study conducted on 4063 people aged 35 to 70. Dietary patterns were extracted using principal component analysis based on thirty-eight pre-defined food groups. Multivariable logistic regression was conducted to investigate the association between metabolic syndrome and its components with quintiles of dietary patterns in crude and adjusted models. RESULTS Three major dietary patterns were identified (healthy, western, and traditional) in the final analysis of 2823 eligible individuals. After adjusting for covariates, the odds of metabolic syndrome were significantly decreased by 46% in subjects with the highest adherence to the healthy dietary pattern compared to those with the lowest adherence quintile. Results from fully adjusted models on individual metabolic syndrome components showed an inverse association between higher adherence to the healthy dietary pattern and the odds of increased blood glucose, high waist circumference, and elevated blood pressure. However, in fully adjusted models, no significant association was observed between the western and traditional dietary patterns with odds of metabolic syndrome and its components. CONCLUSIONS Adherence to a healthy dietary pattern containing high amounts of fruits, vegetables, nuts, low-fat dairy products, and legumes, could be recommended to prevent and control metabolic syndrome.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by hyperglycemia, insulin resistance, and insufficient insulin secretion. Sarcopenia, as a new complication of diabetes, is characterized by the loss of muscle mass and the progressive decline of muscle strength and function in T2DM patients, which has a serious impact on the physical and mental health of patients. Insulin resistance, mitochondrial dysfunction, and chronic inflammation are common mechanisms of diabetes and sarcopenia. Reasonable exercise training, nutrition supplement, and drug intervention may improve the quality of life of patients with diabetes combined with sarcopenia. This article reviews the relevant factors and management measures of sarcopenia in T2DM patients, in order to achieve early detection, diagnosis, and intervention.

Abstract
Malnutrition is a prevalent and severe issue in hospitalized patients with chronic diseases. However, malnutrition screening is often overlooked or inaccurate due to lack of awareness and experience among health care providers. This study aimed to develop and validate a novel digital smartphone-based self-administered tool that uses facial features, especially the ocular area, as indicators of malnutrition in inpatient patients with chronic diseases. Facial photographs and malnutrition screening scales were collected from 619 patients in four different hospitals. A machine learning model based on back propagation neural network was trained, validated, and tested using these data. The model showed a significant correlation (p < 0.05) and a high accuracy (area under the curve 0.834-0.927) in different patient groups. The point-of-care mobile tool can be used to screen malnutrition with good accuracy and accessibility, showing its potential for screening malnutrition in patients with chronic diseases.

Abstract
This study aimed to identify the combined factors of physical activity and diet associated with non-sarcopenic non-obese status in 1586 diabetic patients aged ≥65 years from the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2016 to 2019). Participants were categorized into non-sarcopenic non-obesity (NSNO), sarcopenia non-obesity (SNO), non-sarcopenic obesity (NSO), and sarcopenic obesity (SO) groups. NSNO had lower insulin, HOMA-IR, and triglycerides compared to NSO and SO. NSNO had lower perceived stress, higher nutrition education and dietary supplement intake. As assessed by the Korean Healthy Eating Index, NSNO scored higher total than SNO and SO, in breakfast and energy balance compared to SO, and in the adequacy of vegetables and meat/fish/egg/bean compared to SNO. NSNO had significantly higher energy and protein intake and physical activity, with BMI/waist circumference lower than NSO, SO, and comparable to SNO. Physical activity was positively associated with NSNO. Low Total KHEI score and protein intake level reduced the odds ratio (OR) of NSNO, particularly when physical activity was insufficient, with OR = 0.38 for KHEI Q1 and OR = 0.32 for protein T1. In conclusion, physical activity, diet quality, and protein intake are associated with NSNO prevalence in Korean elderly with diabetes, and energy balance through active intake and expenditure may be effective.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the association between dietary carotenoid intake and periodontitis in diabetic patients. Data on diabetic patients were collected from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2009-2014 for this cross-sectional study. Dietary intake of carotenoids was assessed through the first 24-hour dietary recall interview. Full-mouth periodontal examinations were conducted by trained dental examiners. Subgroup analysis was conducted in terms of age, gender, the number of missing teeth, cardiovascular disease, smoking, and anti-diabetic drugs. Totally 1914 diabetic patients were included, with 1281 (66.93%) in the periodontitis group. After adjusting for age, gender, race, education, smoking, dental implants, hepatitis, and the number of missing teeth, α-carotene intake ≥55.82 mcg was associated with lower odds of periodontitis than α-carotene intake <55.82 mcg [OR = 0.70, 95% CI: 0.53-0.91, P = 0.010]; lutein and zeaxanthin intake ≥795.95 mcg was associated with decreased odds of periodontitis than lutein and zeaxanthin intake <795.95 mcg (OR = 0.75, 95%CI: 0.57-0.98, P = 0.039). The association between carotenoid intake and periodontitis varied across different subpopulations. In diabetes, dietary intake of α-carotene and lutein and zeaxanthin was inversely associated with the odds of periodontitis, which may facilitate clinical periodontitis management.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Physical frailty (PF) and circadian syndrome (CircS) are proposed as novel risks for cardiovascular disease (CVD), but little attention is paid to their combined impact on CVD. This study aimed to investigate the association of PF, CircS and CVD in middle-aged and older adults. METHODS The sample comprised 8512 participants aged at least 45 years from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) 2011. PF was examined by the physical frailty phenotype scale. CircS was assessed by the components of the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) MetS plus short sleep duration and depression. The cut-off for CircS was set as ≥ 4. CVD was defined as the presence of physician-diagnosed heart disease and/or stroke. A total of 6176 participants without CVD recruited from CHARLS 2011 and were followed up in 2018. RESULTS The prevalence of CVD in total populations, neither CircS or PF, PF alone, CircS alone and both CircS and PF were 13.0%, 7.4%, 15.5%, 17.4%, and 30.2%, respectively. CircS was more likely to be PF [OR (95%CI): 2.070 (1.732 ∼ 2.472)] than those without CircS. Both CircS alone [OR (95% CI): 1.954 (1.663 ∼ 2.296)], and coexisting CircS and PF [3.508 (2.739 ∼ 4.494)] were associated with CVD. Longitudinal analysis showed that individuals with both CircS and PF (HR: 1.716, 95%CI: 1.314 ∼ 2.240) and CircS alone [1.520 (1.331 ∼ 1.737)] were more likely to have new onset CVD than neither CircS or PF peers. CONCLUSION PF and CircS together are associated with higher CVD risk, which provided new evidence for a strong relation that warrants attention to assessing PF and CircS and in community to promote healthy aging.

Abstract
This study investigated the relationship between Metabolic Syndrome (MetS), sleep disorders, the consumption of some nutrients, and social development factors, focusing on gender differences in an unbalanced dataset from a Mexico City cohort. We used data balancing techniques like SMOTE and ADASYN after employing machine learning models like random forest and RPART to predict MetS. Random forest excelled, achieving significant, balanced accuracy, indicating its robustness in predicting MetS and achieving a balanced accuracy of approximately 87%. Key predictors for men included body mass index and family history of gout, while waist circumference and glucose levels were most significant for women. In relation to diet, sleep quality, and social development, metabolic syndrome in men was associated with high lactose and carbohydrate intake, educational lag, living with a partner without marrying, and lack of durable goods, whereas in women, best predictors in these dimensions include protein, fructose, and cholesterol intake, copper metabolites, snoring, sobbing, drowsiness, sanitary adequacy, and anxiety. These findings underscore the need for personalized approaches in managing MetS and point to a promising direction for future research into the interplay between social factors, sleep disorders, and metabolic health, which mainly depend on nutrient consumption by region.

Abstract
In the context of adequately feeding the rising older population, lentils have an important potential as sources of (plant-based) protein as well as slowly digestible bio-encapsulated starch and fibre. This study evaluated in vitro digestion of protein and starch in lentils under conditions representing the gastrointestinal tract of older adults. Both static and semi-dynamic simulations were applied to analyze the effect of specific gastrointestinal conditions (healthy versus older adult) on macronutrient digestion patterns. Gastric proteolysis was strongly dependent on applied gastric pH (gradient), leading to a lower extent of protein hydrolysis for simulations relevant for older adults. Fewer and smaller (lower degree of polymerization, DP) bioaccessible peptides were formed during gastric proteolysis under older adult compared to healthy adult conditions. These differences, developed during the in vitro gastric phase, were compensated during small intestinal digestion, yielding similar final proteolysis levels regardless of the applied simulation conditions. In contrast, in the presence of saliva, amylolysis was generally accelerated under older adult conditions. Moreover, the current work highlighted the importance of considering saliva (or salivary amylase) incorporation in simulations where the applied gastric pH (gradient) allows salivary amylase activity. Under both healthy and older adult conditions, in vitro starch hydrolysis bio-encapsulated in cotyledon cells of cooked lentils was attenuated, compared to a white bread reference.

Abstract
This study aimed to estimate the frequency and overlap of cachexia, malnutrition, and sarcopenia in elderly patients with diabetes mellitus. Patients who were aged at least 65 years, had diabetes mellitus, and were regularly visiting the Ise Red Cross Hospital on an outpatient basis were included. The patients were assessed to determine whether they had cachexia, malnutrition, and sarcopenia according to the Asian Working Group for Cachexia criteria, the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition criteria, and the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia 2019 criteria. A total of 510 patients (310 men and 200 women) were analyzed in this study. Sarcopenia, cachexia, and malnutrition were found in 84 patients (16.4%), 40 patients (7.8%) (17.8% among patients with chronic diseases), and 110 patients (21.5%), respectively. Among patients with sarcopenia, the frequencies of cachexia and malnutrition were 30% and 71.4%, respectively. Among patients with cachexia, the frequencies of sarcopenia and malnutrition were 65% and 90%, respectively, and among those with malnutrition, the frequencies of sarcopenia and cachexia were 54% and 32.7%, respectively. The overlap among cachexia, malnutrition, and sarcopenia appears to be an important factor to be considered in the treatment of elderly patients with diabetes mellitus.

The Vicious Cycle of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Skeletal Muscle Atrophy: Clinical, Biochemical, and Nutritional Bases. Nutrients 2024; 16:172.

Abstract
Today, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and skeletal muscle atrophy (SMA) have become increasingly common occurrences. Whether the onset of T2DM increases the risk of SMA or vice versa has long been under investigation. Both conditions are associated with negative changes in skeletal muscle health, which can, in turn, lead to impaired physical function, a lowered quality of life, and an increased risk of mortality. Poor nutrition can exacerbate both T2DM and SMA. T2DM and SMA are linked by a vicious cycle of events that reinforce and worsen each other. Muscle insulin resistance appears to be the pathophysiological link between T2DM and SMA. To explore this association, our review (i) compiles evidence on the clinical association between T2DM and SMA, (ii) reviews mechanisms underlying biochemical changes in the muscles of people with or at risk of T2DM and SMA, and (iii) examines how nutritional therapy and increased physical activity as muscle-targeted treatments benefit this population. Based on the evidence, we conclude that effective treatment of patients with T2DM-SMA depends on the restoration and maintenance of muscle mass. We thus propose that regular intake of key functional nutrients, along with guidance for physical activity, can help maintain euglycemia and improve muscle status in all patients with T2DM and SMA.

Abstract
This study investigated the effects of miso, a traditional fermented soybean food in Japan, on muscle mass atrophy. Eight week old male C57BL/6J mice were fed high fat/high sucrose diet with or without miso for 12 weeks. A miso diet increased soleus muscle weights (p<0.05) and reduced intraperitoneal glucose tolerance and insulin tolerance (p<0.05). The miso diet downregulated the Tnfα and Ccl2 expression, related to inflammation, and Trim63 and Fbxo32 expression, related to muscle atrophy, in the soleus muscle (p<0.05). The miso diet increased short-chain fatty acids levels, including acetic, propanoic, and butanoic acids, in the feces, serum, and soleus muscle (p<0.05). According to the LEfSe analysis, the miso diet increased family Prevotellaceae, family Christensenellaceae, family Dehalobacterium, family Desulfitibacter; family Deferribacteraceae, order Deferribacterales, class Deferribacteres; and family Gemmatimonadaceae, order Gemmatimonadetes, and class Gemmatimonadales, whereas the miso diet decreased family Microbacteriaceae, order Micrococcales, class Actinobacteria, and family Lactobacillaceae. Miso suppressed high fat/high sucrose diet induced impaired glucose tolerance, low muscle strength, and muscle atrophy by improving dysbiosis and increasing short-chain fatty acids production and provides new insights into the preventive effects of fermented foods on sarcopenia.

Abstract
Malnutrition is correlated with poor cognition; however, an understanding of the association between nutrition risk, which precedes malnutrition, and cognition is lacking. This study aimed to determine if nutrition risk measured with the SCREEN-8 tool is associated with cognitive performance among cognitively healthy adults aged 55+, after adjusting for demographic and lifestyle covariates. Sex- and age-stratified analyses were also explored. Baseline data from the Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging was used. Cognition was determined using a 6-measure composite score based on four executive functions and two memory tasks, taking into account age, sex, and education. Multivariable linear regression was performed while adjusting for body mass index (BMI), lifestyle, and health covariates in the entire sample (n = 11 378) and then stratified by sex and age. Approximately half of participants were female (54.5%) aged 65+ (54.1%). Greater nutrition risk was associated with poorer cognitive performance in the entire sample (F[1, 11 368] = 5.36, p = 0.021) and among participants aged 55-64 (n = 5227; F[1, 5217] = 5.45, p = 0.020). Sex differences in lifestyle and health factors associated with cognition were apparent, but nutrition risk was not associated with cognition in sex-stratified models. Based on this analysis, there may be an association between nutrition risk and cognitive performance in older adults. When screening for either cognitive impairment or nutrition risk, complementary assessments for these conditions is warranted, as early intervention may provide benefit.

Abstract
Background The incidence of new-onset diabetes mellitus (NODM) after distal pancreatectomy (DP) remains high. Few studies have focused on NODM in patients with pancreatic benign or low-grade malignant lesions (PBLML). This study aimed to develop and validate an effective clinical model for risk prediction and stratification of NODM after DP in patients with PBLML. Methods A follow-up survey was conducted to investigate NODM in patients without preoperative DM who underwent DP. Four hundred and forty-eight patients from Peking Union Medical College Hospital (PUMCH) and 178 from Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital (GDPH) met the inclusion criteria. They constituted the training cohort and the validation cohort, respectively. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression, as well as least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) analyses, were used to identify the independent risk factors. The nomogram was constructed and verified. Concordance index (C-index), receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, calibration curves, and decision curve analysis (DCA) were applied to assess its predictive performance and clinical utility. Accordingly, the optimal cut-off point was determined by maximally selected rank statistics method, and the cumulative risk curves for the high- and low-risk populations were plotted to evaluate the discrimination ability of the nomogram. Results The median follow-up duration was 42.8 months in the PUMCH cohort and 42.9 months in the GDPH cohort. The postoperative cumulative 5-year incidences of DM were 29.1% and 22.1%, respectively. Age, body mass index (BMI), length of pancreatic resection, intraoperative blood loss, and concomitant splenectomy were significant risk factors. The nomogram demonstrated significant predictive utility for post-pancreatectomy DM. The C-indexes of the nomogram were 0.739 and 0.719 in the training and validation cohorts, respectively. ROC curves demonstrated the predictive accuracy of the nomogram, and the calibration curves revealed that prediction results were in general agreement with the actual results. The considerable clinical applicability of the nomogram was certified by DCA. The optimal cut-off point for risk prediction value was 2.88, and the cumulative risk curves of each cohort showed significant differences between the high- and low-risk groups. Conclusions The nomogram could predict and identify the NODM risk population, and provide guidance to physicians in monitoring and controlling blood glucose levels in PBLML patients after DP.

Abstract
The population of older adults (≥65 years) with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is diverse, encompassing individuals with varying functional capabilities, living arrangements, concomitant medical conditions, and life expectancies. Hence, their categorization into different patient profiles (ie, good health, intermediate health, poor health) may aid in clinical decision-making when establishing glycemic goals and pharmacological treatment strategies. Further granularity in assessing each patient profile through interdisciplinary collaboration may also add precision to therapeutic and monitoring decisions. In this review, we discuss with a multidisciplinary approach how to deliver the best benefit from advanced diabetes therapies and technologies to older adults with T2DM according to each patient profile. There remain however several areas that deserve further research in older adults with T2DM, including the efficacy and safety of continuous glucose monitoring and automated insulin delivery systems, the switch to once-weekly insulin, the effectiveness of multidisciplinary care models, and the use of supported telemedicine and remote blood glucose monitoring in the oldest-old (≥85 years) who particularly require the assistance of others.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS There are few data on micronutrient intake in older adults with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and their adherence to the Mediterranean diet, a dietary pattern rich in micronutrients. In this cross-sectional study, we evaluated the prevalence of adequacy in micronutrient intake according to the recommendations, and the adherence to the Mediterranean diet in older adults with T2D. METHODS One hundred thirty-eight patients (47 women and 91 men) with T2D aged over 65 years were included. Dietary habits were assessed by three 24-h dietary recalls. The micronutrient intake, expressed as mean daily intake, and adequacy were compared with the dietary recommendations proposed by the Italian Society of Human Nutrition (LARN) and the European Food Safety Agency (EFSA). Adherence to the Mediterranean diet was evaluated by the MEDI-quest score. RESULTS An extremely low proportion of participants (∼1%) adhered to the recommendations for potassium and vitamin D intake. A low proportion of participants adhered to the recommendations for calcium (∼23%), magnesium (∼16%), selenium (∼17%), vitamin E (∼14%), riboflavin (∼28%), vitamin B6 (∼29%), folate (∼25%), and niacin (∼27%) intake. More than 60% of the population adhered to the recommendations for iron, copper, vitamin A and B12 intake. Only 53% of the population showed high adherence to the Mediterranean diet. CONCLUSIONS Our data indicate that a very low proportion of older adults with T2D meet the recommendations for ten micronutrients (calcium, potassium, magnesium, selenium, vitamin D, vitamin E, riboflavin, vitamin B6, folate, and niacin) with an unsatisfactory adherence to the Mediterranean diet. Nutritional approaches aimed at favoring adherence to dietary recommendations and increasing the consumption of foods rich in micronutrients should be implemented in older adults.

Abstract
With the intensification of population aging worldwide, the health problems of the elderly have become a particular concern. Functional disability is a prominent problem in the aging of this population, resulting in the decreased quality of life of senile people. Risk factors for functional disability in the elderly include geriatric syndromes and the associated diseases such as frailty. The influence of frailty on the health of the elderly has been a hot topic in recent years. As a dynamic and reversible geriatric syndrome, it has become one of the important public health problems emerging around the world. Frailty lies between self-reliance and the need for care and is reversible. Reasonable preventive interventions can restore the elderly to an independent life. If no interventions are implemented, the elderly will face a dilemma. There is no gold standard for frailty screening around the world. In order to alleviate frailty in the elderly, many countries have conducted early screening for frailty, mainly focusing on nutrition, physical activity, and social participation, in order to detect and prevent frailty earlier and to reduce the incidence of frailty.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Malnutrition remains a pervasive issue among older adults, a prevalence that is markedly higher among those diagnosed with diabetes. The primary objective of this study was to develop and validate a risk prediction model that can accurately identify instances of malnutrition among elderly hospitalized patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) within a Chinese demographic. METHODS This cross-sectional study was conducted between August 2021 and August 2022, we enrolled T2DM patients aged 65 years and above from endocrinology wards. The creation of a nomogram for predicting malnutrition was based on risk factors identified through univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses. The predictive accuracy of the model was evaluated by the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC),the area under the ROC (AUC), the concordance index (C-index), and calibration curves. RESULTS The study included a total of 248 older T2DM patients, with a recorded malnutrition prevalence of 26.21%. The identified critical risk factors for malnutrition in this cohort were body mass index, albumin, impairment in activities of daily living, dietary habits, and glycosylated hemoglobin. The AUC of the nomogram model reached 0.914 (95% CI: 0.877-0.951), with an optimal cutoff value of 0.392. The model demonstrated a sensitivity of 80.0% and a specificity of 88.5%. Bootstrap-based internal verification results revealed a C-index of 0.891, while the calibration curves indicated a strong correlation between the actual and predicted malnutrition risks. CONCLUSIONS This study underscores the critical need for early detection of malnutrition in older T2DM patients. The constructed nomogram represents a practical and reliable tool for the rapid identification of malnutrition among this vulnerable population.

Identification of Risk Groups for and Factors Affecting Metabolic Syndrome in South Korean Single-Person Households Using Latent Class Analysis and Machine Learning Techniques: Secondary Analysis Study. JMIR Form Res 2023; 7:e42756. [PMID: 37698907 PMCID: PMC10523223 DOI: 10.2196/42756] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/16/2022] [Revised: 04/24/2023] [Accepted: 08/17/2023] [Indexed: 09/13/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The rapid increase of single-person households in South Korea is leading to an increase in the incidence of metabolic syndrome, which causes cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, due to lifestyle changes. It is necessary to analyze the complex effects of metabolic syndrome risk factors in South Korean single-person households, which differ from one household to another, considering the diversity of single-person households. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to identify the factors affecting metabolic syndrome in single-person households using machine learning techniques and categorically characterize the risk factors through latent class analysis (LCA). METHODS This cross-sectional study included 10-year secondary data obtained from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2009-2018). We selected 1371 participants belonging to single-person households. Data were analyzed using SPSS (version 25.0; IBM Corp), Mplus (version 8.0; Muthen & Muthen), and Python (version 3.0; Plone & Python). We applied 4 machine learning algorithms (logistic regression, decision tree, random forest, and extreme gradient boost) to identify important factors and then applied LCA to categorize the risk groups of metabolic syndromes in single-person households. RESULTS Through LCA, participants were classified into 4 groups (group 1: intense physical activity in early adulthood, group 2: hypertension among middle-aged female respondents, group 3: smoking and drinking among middle-aged male respondents, and group 4: obesity and abdominal obesity among middle-aged respondents). In addition, age, BMI, obesity, subjective body shape recognition, alcohol consumption, smoking, binge drinking frequency, and job type were investigated as common factors that affect metabolic syndrome in single-person households through machine learning techniques. Group 4 was the most susceptible and at-risk group for metabolic syndrome (odds ratio 17.67, 95% CI 14.5-25.3; P<.001), and obesity and abdominal obesity were the most influential risk factors for metabolic syndrome. CONCLUSIONS This study identified risk groups and factors affecting metabolic syndrome in single-person households through machine learning techniques and LCA. Through these findings, customized interventions for each generational risk factor for metabolic syndrome can be implemented, leading to the prevention of metabolic syndrome, which causes cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. In conclusion, this study contributes to the prevention of metabolic syndrome in single-person households by providing new insights and priority groups for the development of customized interventions using classification.

Abstract
AIMS Pre-diabetes is a condition that confers an increased cardiovascular risk. Frailty is very common in hypertensive patients, and insulin resistance has been linked to frailty in older adults with diabetes. On these grounds, our aim was to evaluate the association between insulin resistance and cognitive impairment in hypertensive and pre-diabetic and frail older adults. METHODS AND RESULTS We studied consecutive pre-diabetic and hypertensive elders with frailty presenting at the Avellino local health authority of the Italian Ministry of Health (ASL AV) from March 2021 to March 2022. All of them fulfilled the following inclusion criteria: a previous diagnosis of hypertension with no clinical or laboratory evidence of secondary causes, a confirmed diagnosis of pre-diabetes, age >65 years, Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) Score <26, and frailty. We enrolled 178 frail patients, of which 141 successfully completed the study. We observed a strong inverse correlation (r = -0.807; P < 0.001) between MoCA Score and Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR). The results were confirmed by a linear regression analysis using MoCA Score as dependent variable, after adjusting for several potential confounders. CONCLUSION Taken together, our data highlight for the first time the association between insulin resistance and global cognitive function in frail elders with hypertension and pre-diabetes.

Abstract
BACKGRUOUND We evaluated the prevalence and management of diabetes mellitus (DM) in elderly Korean patients based on data from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES). METHODS A total of 3,068 adults aged 65 years and older (19.8% of total population) were analyzed using KNHANES from 2019 to 2020. Prevalence, awareness, treatment, and control rates, and comorbidities were analyzed. Lifestyle behaviors and energy intake were also measured. RESULTS The prevalence of DM and prediabetes was 29.6% and 50.5%, respectively. The awareness, treatment and control rates were 76.4%, 73.3%, and 28.3%, respectively. The control rate was 77.0% if A1C <7.5% criteria was used. The mean A1C value of individuals with known DM was 7.1%, and 14.5% of the known DM patients had A1C ≥8.0%. Abdominal obesity, hypertension, and hypercholesterolemia were combined with DM in 63.9%, 71.7%, and 70.7%, respectively, and the rate of integrated management was 36.0% (A1C <7.5% criteria). A total of 40.1% of those with DM walked regularly. The percentage of energy intake from carbohydrates was higher in those with DM than in those without DM (P=0.044), while those of fat (P=0.003) and protein (P=0.025) were lower in those with DM than in those without DM in women. CONCLUSION In 2019 to 2020, three of 10 adults aged 65 years and older in Korea had DM, and approximately 70% of them had comorbidities. A strategy for more individualized comprehensive care for the elderly patients with DM is urgently needed.

Expert Rev Endocrinol Metab 2023; 18:361-375. [PMID: 37489773 DOI: 10.1080/17446651.2023.2239907] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/25/2023] [Revised: 07/08/2023] [Accepted: 07/19/2023] [Indexed: 07/26/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Frailty is an emerging and newly recognized complication of diabetes in older people. However, frailty is not thoroughly investigated in diabetes outcome studies. AREAS COVERED This manuscript reviews the effect of glycemic control and hypoglycemic therapy on the incidence of frailty in older people with diabetes. EXPERT OPINION Current studies show that both low glycemia and high glycemia are associated with frailty. However, most of the studies, especially low glycemia studies, are cross-sectional or retrospective, suggesting association, rather than causation, of frailty. In addition, frail patients in the low glycemia studies are characterized by lower body weight or lower body mass index (BMI), contrary to those in the high glycemia studies, who are either overweight or obese. This may suggest that frailty has a heterogeneous metabolic spectrum, starting with an anorexic malnourished (AM) phenotype at one end, which is associated with low glycemia and a sarcopenic obese (SO) phenotype on the other end, which is associated with high glycemia. The current little evidence suggests that poor glycemic control increases the risk of frailty, but there is a paucity of evidence to suggest that tight glycemic control would reduce the risk of incident frailty. Metformin is the only well-studied hypoglycemic agent, so far, to have a protective effect against frailty independent of glycemic control in the non-frail older people with diabetes. However, once frailty is developed, the choice of the best hypoglycemic agent for these patients will be affected by the metabolic phenotype of frailty. For example, sodium glucose transporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) are appropriate in the SO phenotype due to their weight losing properties, while insulin therapy may be considered early in the AM phenotype due to its anabolic and weight gaining benefits. Future studies are still required to further investigate the metabolic effects of frailty on older people with diabetes, determine the most appropriate HbA1c target, and explore the most suitable hypoglycemic agent in each metabolic phenotype of frailty.

Abstract
Aging results from gradual accumulation of damage to the cellular functions caused by biochemical processes such as oxidative stress, inflammation-driven prolonged cellular senescence state, immune system malfunction, psychological stress, and epigenetic changes due to exposure to environmental toxins. Plant-derived bioactive molecules have been shown to ameliorate the damage from oxidative stress. This research seeks to uncover the mechanisms of action of how phytochemicals from fruit/berry/vegetable (FBV) juice powder mitigate oxidative stress. The study uses a computational systems biology approach to (1) identify biomolecular pathways of oxidative stress; (2) identify phytochemicals from FBV juice powder and their specific action on oxidative stress mechanisms; and (3) quantitatively estimate the effects of FBV juice powder bioactive compounds on oxidative stress. The compounds in FBV affected two oxidative stress molecular pathways: (1) reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and (2) antioxidant enzyme production. Six bioactive compounds including cyanidin, delphinidin, ellagic acid, kaempherol, malvidin, and rutin in FBV significantly lowered production of ROS and increased the production of antioxidant enzymes such as catalase, heme oxygenase-1, superoxide dismutase, and glutathione peroxidase. FBV juice powder provides a combination of bioactive compounds that attenuate aging by affecting multiple pathways of oxidative stress.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE There are studies on the nutritional status of type 2 diabetes (T2D), but there are no large cohort studies on the prognosis of Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score for T2D. The aim of this study was to examine the association between CONUT score and all-cause mortality as well as cancer mortality in adults with T2D. METHODS For this study, we analyzed a total of 3763 adult patients with T2D who were part of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 1999 to 2018. Mortality outcomes were determined by linking to the National Death Index records as of December 31, 2019. Cox proportional risk models were used to estimate risk ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for all-cause and cancer deaths. RESULTS During the mean follow-up of 8.17 years, there were 823 deaths from all causes and 155 deaths from cancer. After adjusting for multiple variables, the risk of all-cause mortality was higher in patients with a Mild (CONUT score ≥ 2), compared with patients with a Normal (CONUT score of 0-1). All-cause mortality risk was 39% higher, and cancer mortality risk was 45% higher. Consistent results were observed when stratified by age, sex, race, BMI, smoking status, and glycated hemoglobin levels. CONCLUSIONS In a nationally representative sample of American adults with T2D, we found an association between CONUT score and all-cause mortality and cancer mortality.

Abstract
Introduction Observational studies suggested that diabetes mellitus [type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM)], multiple sclerosis (MS), and migraine are associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the causal link has not been fully elucidated. Thus, we aim to assess the causal link between T1DM, T2DM, MS, and migraine with the risk of AD using a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) study. Methods Genetic instruments were identified for AD, T1DM, T2DM, MS, and migraine respectively from genome-wide association study. MR analysis was conducted mainly using the inverse-variance weighted (IVW) method. Results The result of IVW method demonstrated that T2DM is causally associated with risk of AD (OR: 1.237, 95% CI: 1.099-1.391, P: 0.0003). According to the IVW method, there is no causal association between TIDM, MS, migraine, and the risk of AD (all p value > 0.05). Here we show, there is a causal link between T2DM and the risk of AD. Conclusion These findings highlight the significance of active monitoring and prevention of AD in T2DM patients. Further studies are required to actively search for the risk factors of T2DM combined with AD, explore the markers that can predict T2DM combined with AD, and intervene and treat early.

Abstract
Diet is a modifiable factor in bone and muscle health. The Mediterranean diet (MedDiet) is rich in nutrients and contains key bioactive components with probable protective effects on muscle and bone deterioration. Osteoporosis (OP) and sarcopenia are diseases that increase frailty and susceptibility to fracture, morbidity and mortality. Therefore, it is necessary to combat them in the population. In this regard, MedDiet adherence has proven to be beneficial to bone mineral density (BMD), muscle mass, physical function, OP and sarcopenia. Hence, this diet is proposed as a therapeutic tool that could slow the onset of osteoporosis and sarcopenia. However, there is doubt about the interaction between the MedDiet, strength and fracture risk. Perhaps the amount of EVOO (extra virgin olive oil), fruits, vegetables and fish rich in anti-inflammatory and antioxidant nutrients ingested has an influence, though the results remain controversial.

Abstract
This study worked to investigate the effect of household polluting fuel use (HPFU), as an indicator of household air pollution exposure, on frailty among older adults in rural China. Additionally, this study aimed to examine the moderating effect of healthy lifestyle behaviors on the aforementioned association. This study employed cross-sectional data from the 2018 Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey, which conducted nationally representative sampling of older adults from 23 provinces in mainland China. The frailty index was calculated using 38 baseline variables that assessed health deficits through questionnaire surveys and health examinations. A total of 4535 older adults aged 65 years and above were included in our study, among whom, 1780 reported using polluting fuels as their primary household cooking fuel. The results of regression analyses and multiple robustness checks indicated a significant increase in the frailty index due to HPFU. This environmental health threat was more profound among women, illiterate individuals, and low-economic-status groups. Moreover, healthy dietary and social activities had significant moderating effects on the association between HPFU and frailty. HPFU can be regarded as a risk factor for frailty among older adults in rural China, with its effects exhibiting socio-economic disparities. The adoption of healthy lifestyle behaviors can alleviate the frailty associated with HPFU.

[PMID: 36868384 DOI: 10.1016/j.jad.2023.02.138] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/09/2023] [Revised: 02/23/2023] [Accepted: 02/25/2023] [Indexed: 03/05/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Relationship between age at diagnosis of diabetes and dementia is lacking. The aim of the study was to investigate whether diabetes onset at a younger age was associated with a higher incidence of dementia. METHODS 466,207 participants free of dementia in the UK biobank (UKB) were included in the analysis. Propensity score matching (PSM) was adopted to match diabetic and non-diabetic participants in different onset age of diabetes groups to evaluate onset age of diabetes and incident dementia. RESULTS Compared with non-diabetic participants, diabetes participants had an adjusted hazard ratio (HR) of 1.87 (95 % confidence interval [CI]: 1.73-2.03) for all-cause dementia, 1.85 (95 % CI: 1.60-2.04) for Alzheimer's disease (AD), and 2.86 (95 % CI: 2.47-3.32) for vascular dementia (VD). Among diabetic participants who reported onset age, the adjusted HRs for incident all-cause dementia, AD, and VD were 1.20 (95 % CI: 1.14-1.25), 1.19 (95 % CI: 1.10-1.29), and 1.19 (95 % CI: 1.10-1.28), respectively, per 10 years decrease in age at diabetes onset. After PSM, strength of association between diabetes and all-cause dementia increased with decreasing onset age of diabetes (≥60 years: HR = 1.47, 95 % CI: 1.25-1.74; 45-59 years: HR = 1.66, 95 % CI: 1.40-1.96; <45 years: HR = 2.92, 95 % CI: 2.13-4.01) after multivariable adjustment. Similarly, diabetic participants with onset age <45 years had greatest HRs for incident AD and VD, compared with their matched controls. LIMITATIONS Our results only reflect the characteristics of UKB participants. CONCLUSIONS Younger age at diabetes onset was significantly associated with a higher risk of dementia in this longitudinal cohort study.

Extended-release metformin improves cognitive impairment in frail older women with hypertension and diabetes: preliminary results from the LEOPARDESS Study. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2023; 22:94. [PMID: 37085892 PMCID: PMC10122301 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-023-01817-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/04/2023] [Accepted: 03/28/2023] [Indexed: 04/23/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Women have a high risk of frailty independently of age and menopause state. Diabetes and hypertension increase the risk of frailty and cognitive impairment. Metformin has been employed in post-menopausal women and some reports have shown encouraging effects in terms of attenuated frailty. However, the impact on cognitive performance of a recently introduced extended-release formulation of metformin has never been explored. METHODS We studied consecutive frail hypertensive and diabetic older women presenting at the ASL (local health authority of the Italian Ministry of Health) Avellino, Italy, from June 2021 to August 2022, who were treated or not with extended-release metformin. We included a control group of frail older males with diabetes and hypertension treated with extended-release metformin and a control group of frail older women with diabetes and hypertension treated with regular metformin. RESULTS A total of 145 patients successfully completed the study. At the end of the 6-month follow-up, we observed a significantly different cognitive performance compared to baseline in the group of frail women treated with extended-release metformin (p: 0.007). Then, we compared the follow-up groups and we observed significant differences between frail women treated vs. untreated (p: 0.041), between treated frail women and treated frail men (p: 0.016), and between women treated with extended-release metformin vs. women treated with regular metformin (p: 0.048). We confirmed the crucial role of extended-release metformin applying a multivariable logistic analysis to adjust for potential confounders. CONCLUSIONS We evidenced, for the first time to the best of our knowledge, the favorable effects on cognitive impairment of extended-release metformin in frail women with diabetes and hypertension.

Yang E, Lee KH. Association between Visual Impairment and Nutritional Risk among Older Adults with Diabetes: A Population-Based Cross-Sectional Study. J Korean Acad Nurs 2023; 53:167-176. [PMID: 37164345 DOI: 10.4040/jkan.22141] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/14/2022] [Revised: 02/24/2023] [Accepted: 02/26/2023] [Indexed: 05/12/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE Despite the high prevalence of visual impairment caused by diabetic retinopathy and nutritional problems among older adults with diabetes, evidence regarding factors related to nutritional risk in this population is limited. Therefore, this study aimed to identify the correlates of nutritional risk among older adults with diabetes, focusing on visual impairment. METHODS This study was a secondary data analysis of the 2020 National Survey of Older Koreans aged 65 years and above. The sample comprised 2,376 older adults with diabetes, and complex sample ANOVA and Rao-Scott chi-square tests were used to compare the groups according to visual impairment. Complex-sample logistic regression analyses were conducted to verify the association between visual impairment and nutritional risk. RESULTS Older adults with diabetes, who also have severe visual impairment, are more likely to have nutritional risk status than those without impairment after controlling for covariates (odds ratio [OR] = 2.44, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.16~5.13). Among the covariates, depression (OR = 3.58, 95% CI 2.60~4.94), dependent activities of daily living status (OR = 2.79, 95% CI 1.60~4.86), and experience of hospitalization during the past year (OR = 2.51, 95% CI 1.57~4.03) were strongly associated with nutritional risk. CONCLUSION Severe visual impairment increases the nutritional risk among older adults with diabetes. Therefore, it is essential to prevent visual impairment due to exacerbation of diabetes through appropriate management. Additionally, tailored nutritional interventions for visually impaired older adults with diabetes that consider visual characteristics are required.
