Abstract
OBJECTIVE The study aims to investigate the levels of serum NLRP3 along with its effector molecules (Caspase-1, IL-1β, and IL-18) in the mid-pregnancy in pregnant women with hyperglycemia, and explore the relationship between NLRP3, along with its effector molecules (Caspase-1, IL-1β, and IL-18) and insulin resistance, as well as pregnancy outcomes. METHODS The levels of serum NLRP3 along with its effector molecules (Caspase-1, IL-1β, and IL-18) in three groups of pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), pregestational diabetes mellitus (PGDM) and normal glucose tolerance (NGT) were measured in mid-pregnancy, and their relationship with insulin resistance and pregnancy outcomes was analyzed. The ROC curve was also used to evaluate the predictive value of serum NLRP3 inflammasome and its effector molecules for pregnancy outcomes. RESULTS There were no statistical differences in the general clinical data of the three groups, and the concentrations of serum NLRP3 along with its effector molecules were higher in the GDM and PGDM groups than in the NGT group, and NLRP3 along with its effector molecules were positively correlated with fasting blood glucose, fasting insulin, and insulin resistance index in both groups (r > 0, p < .05). The incidence of preterm delivery, hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, premature rupture of membranes, neonatal hypoglycemia and macrosomia was significantly higher in both groups than in the NGT group (p < .05). The value of the combined serum NLRP3 and its effector molecules in mid-pregnancy to predict adverse pregnancy outcomes was highest, and the AUCs for the combined prediction of late hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, premature rupture of membranes, preterm delivery, neonatal hypoglycemia and macrosomia were 0.84 (95% CI 0.79-0.88, p < .001), 0.81 (95% CI 0.75-0.85, p < .001), 0.76 (95% CI 0.70-0.81, p < .001), 0.76 (95% CI 0.70-0.81, p < .001) and 0.72 (95% CI 0.63-0.81, p < .001), respectively. CONCLUSIONS Increased serum NLRP3 along with its effector molecules in pregnant women with hyperglycemia are associated with the levels of insulin resistance and the subsequent development of adverse pregnancy outcomes.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus and cancer are both common health issues, but the correlation between these two diseases remains unclear. We investigated the association of cumulative exposure of diabetes mellitus as an indication of hyperglycemia in terms of disease duration on multiple cancer types. We hypothesized that the risk of cancer would increase over time after the onset of diabetes. The study population consisted of a population-based cohort of 398,708 people and it was constructed from the Finnish CARING project. The Diabetes group consisted of 185,258 individuals, and the non-diabetic reference group comprised 187,921 individuals. Over 4.1 million person-years were accumulated, and the median follow-up time was 10.55 years. In the diabetes group, 25,899 cancer cases were observed compared with 23,900 cancers in the non-diabetic group. We did not find a clear relationship between the duration of diabetes mellitus and most cancer types examined. However, for cancers of the pancreas, prostate gland, bronchus, and lungs, a temporal relationship was found. Furthermore, even within the cancer types where the relationship was detected, it did not change over time. These findings indicate that diabetes does not independently increase the risk of cancer. Instead, the development of diabetes may be attributed to shared risk factors with cancer, such as obesity and/or insulin resistance accompanied by hyperinsulinemia. Thus, it is likely that the clock for increased cancer risk starts ticking already before onset of diabetes and hyperglycemia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Baseline hyperglycemia is associated with worse outcomes in acute ischemic stroke (AIS), including higher risk of symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH) following treatment with thrombolysis. Prospective data are lacking to inform management of post-thrombolysis hyperglycemia. In a prespecified analysis from the Stroke Hyperglycemia Insulin Network Effort (SHINE) trial of hyperglycemic stroke management, we hypothesized that post-thrombolysis hyperglycemia is associated with a higher risk of sICH. METHODS Hyperglycemic AIS patients <12 hours onset were randomized to intensive insulin (target range 80-130 mg/dL) vs standard sliding scale (80-179 mg/dL) over a 72-hour period, stratified by treatment with thrombolysis. Three board-certified vascular neurologists independently reviewed all sICH events occurring within 7 days, defined by neurologic deterioration of ≥4 points on the NIH Stroke Scale (NIHSS). Associations between blood glucose control and sICH were analyzed using logistic regression accounting for NIHSS, age, systolic blood pressure, onset to thrombolysis time, and endovascular therapy (odds ratios [OR], 95% CI). Additional analysis compared patients in a high-risk group (age older than 60 years and NIHSS ≥8) vs all others. Categorical variables and outcomes were compared using the χ2 test (p < 0.05). RESULTS Of 1151 SHINE participants, 725 (63%) received thrombolysis (median age 65 years, 46% women, 29% Black, 18% Hispanic). The median NIHSS was 7, baseline blood glucose was 187 (interquartile range 153-247) mg/dL, and 80% were diabetic. Onset to thrombolysis time was 2.2 hours (1.6-2.9). Post-thrombolysis sICH occurred in 3.6% (3.0% intensive vs 4.3% standard glucose control, OR 1.10, 0.60-2.01, p = 0.697). In the first 12 hours, every 10 mg/dL higher glucose increased the odds of sICH (OR 1.08, 1.03-1.14, p = 0.004), and a greater proportion of glucose measures in the normal range (80-130 mg/dL) decreased the odds of sICH (0.89, 0.80-0.99, p = 0.030). These associations were strongest in the high-risk group (age older than 60 years and NIHSS ≥8). DISCUSSION In this prespecified analysis from the SHINE trial, intensive insulin therapy was not associated with a reduced risk of post-thrombolysis sICH compared with standard sliding scale. However, early post-thrombolysis hyperglycemia was associated with a higher risk of sICH overall, particularly in older patients with more severe strokes. Further prospective research is warranted to address the risk of sICH in hyperglycemic stroke patients undergoing endovascular therapy. TRIAL REGISTRATION INFORMATION NCT01369069.

Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Cornstigma (CS), derived from the stigma and style of gramineous plant Zeamays. The medicinal use of CS can be traced back to DianNanMateriaMedica. LingnanMedicinalPlantsCompendium records its effectiveness in ameliorating diabetes. Diabetes is a metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycemia and the consequent chronic complications of kidney, heart, brain and other organs, which pose a significant threat to human health. CS has shown great potential in relieving hyperglycemia associated with diabetes. However, the mechanism of CS in treating diabetes remains unclear. AIM OF THE STUDY To explore the pathogenesis of diabetes and the mechanism of CS improving hyperglycemia in diabetes. MATERIALS AND METHODS We measured apigenin and luteolin contents in CS by UPLC/MS/MS method. Selecting Wistar rats as normal group, and GK rats as model group. For rats, we detected glucose and lipid metabolism indicators, including GHb, AST, ALT, U-Glu, UA, U-TP, U-ALB, and ACR after treatment. For zebrafish, we utilized alloxan and sucrose to establish the diabetes model. Measuring zebrafish blood glucose is employed to evaluate the hypoglycemic capability of CS. In order to explore the mechanism of CS in treating diabetes, we sequenced the transcriptome of zebrafish, compared differentially expressed genes of normal, diabetic, and CS-treated group, and validated multiple enrichment pathways by PCR. RESULTS CS can improve blood glucose levels in both GK rats and diabetic zebrafish. For rats, CS partially restored glucose and lipid metabolism indicators. Transcriptome data from zebrafish showed a close correlation with steroid biosynthesis. The RNA-Sequencing was consistent with PCR results, indicating that CS downregulated gene (fdft1,lss,cyp51) expression concerned with steroid biosynthesis pathway in the diabetes model. CONCLUSION CS effectively improved blood glucose levels, regulated glucose and lipid metabolism by suppressing gene expression in steroid biosynthesis pathway, and ameliorated hyperglycemia. Our research provides valuable insights for CS in the treatment of diabetes, and proposes a new strategy for selecting clinical medications for diabetes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the influence of hyperglycemia on motor symptoms, especially axial signs, and potential mechanisms related to insulin resistance (IR) in patients with Parkinson's disease (PWP). METHODS According to glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) level, PWP were divided into the low-HbA1c and the high-HbA1c groups. Demographic information, glucose metabolism-related variables, Hoehn-Yahr stage, and motor function were compared between the two groups. Correlations between levels of HbA1c and the homeostatic model assessment (HOMA)-IR and motor function in PWP were further analyzed. RESULTS HbA1c level was significantly and positively correlated with the Movement Disorder Society Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale Part III score, axial signs subscore, the Timed Get Up and Go test time, the center of pressure displacement of standing with eyes open and closed, and significantly and negatively correlated with the 10-m walk test comfortable gait speed. HOMA-IR level was significantly and negatively correlated with 10-m walk test comfortable gait speed, but not with others. CONCLUSIONS PWP with high HbA1c showed worse axial symptoms, including dysfunction of automatic walking, dynamic balance, and postural control than those with low HbA1c. In PWP, the effects of hyperglycemia on automatic walking speed may be associated with the IR-related mechanisms, and the effects on dynamic balance and postural control may be related to mechanisms other than IR.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus causes brain microvascular endothelial cell (MEC) damage, inducing dysfunctional angiogenic response and disruption of the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Canagliflozin is a revolutionary hypoglycemic drug that exerts neurologic and/or vascular-protective effects beyond glycemic control; however, its underlying mechanism remains unclear. In the present study, we hypothesize that canagliflozin ameliorates BBB permeability by preventing diabetes-induced brain MEC damage. Mice with high-fat diet/streptozotocin-induced diabetes received canagliflozin for 8 weeks. We assessed vascular integrity by measuring cerebrovascular neovascularization indices. The expression of specificity protein 1 (Sp1), as well as tight junction proteins (TJs), phosphorylated AMP-activated protein kinase (p-AMPK), and adenosine A2A receptors was examined. Mouse brain MECs were grown in high glucose (30 mM) to mimic diabetic conditions. They were treated with/without canagliflozin and assessed for migration and angiogenic ability. We also performed validation studies using AMPK activator (AICAR), inhibitor (Compound C), Sp1 small interfering RNA (siRNA), and adenosine A2A receptor siRNA. We observed that cerebral pathological neovascularization indices were significantly normalized in mice treated with canagliflozin. Increased Sp1 and adenosine A2A receptor expression and decreased p-AMPK and TJ expression were observed under diabetic conditions. Canagliflozin or AICAR treatment alleviated these changes. However, this alleviation effect of canagliflozin was diminished again after Compound C treatment. Either Sp1 siRNA or adenosine A2A receptor siRNA could increase the expression of TJs. Luciferase reporter assay confirmed that Sp1 could bind to the adenosine A2A receptor gene promoter. Our study identifies the AMPK/Sp1/adenosine A2A receptor pathway as a treatment target for diabetes-induced cerebrovascular injury.

Abstract
Leishmaniasis is a group of infectious diseases caused by protozoa of the Leishmania genus and its immunopathogenesis results from an unbalanced immune response during the infection. Diabetes is a chronic disease resulting from dysfunction of the body's production of insulin or the ability to use it properly, leading to hyperglycemia causing tissue damage and impairing the immune system. AIMS The objective of this work was to evaluate the effects of hyperglycemia and diabetes during Leishmania amazonensis infection and how these conditions alter the immune response to the parasite. METHODS An in vitro hyperglycemic stimulus model using THP-1-derived macrophages and an in vivo experimental diabetes with streptozotocin (STZ) in C57BL/6 mice was employed to investigate the impact of diabetes and hyperglicemia in Leishmania amazonensis infection. RESULTS We observed that hyperglycemia impair the leishmanicidal capacity of macrophages derived from THP-1 cells and reverse the resistance profile that C57BL/6 mice have against infection by L. amazonensis, inducing more exacerbated lesions compared to non-diabetic animals. In addition, the hyperglycemic stimulus favored the increase of markers related to the phenotype of M2 macrophages. The induction of experimental diabetes in C57BL/6 mice resulted in a failure in the production of nitric oxide (NO) in the face of infection and macrophages from diabetic animals failed to process and present Leishmania antigens, being unable to activate and induce proliferation of antigen-specific lymphocytes. CONCLUSION Together, these data demonstrate that diabetes and hyperglycemia can impair the cellular immune response, mainly of macrophages, against infection by parasites of the genus Leishmania.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To summarize the clinical characteristics and imaging manifestations of patients with nonketotic hyperglycemic hemichorea (NH-HC) and to explore the possible pathogenesis, diagnosis. and treatment of the disease in order to improve the understanding of this disease and avoid misdiagnosis. METHODS Retrospective analysis was performed on the case data of five patients with NH-HC admitted to our hospital in recent years. The patients were treated in the department of endocrinology, department of neurology, and department of neurosurgery in our hospital, respectively. Meanwhile, relevant literatures were consulted for further learning. RESULTS NH-HC is usually presented as a triad of nonketotic hyperglycemia, lateral chorea, and typical imaging manifestations of head magnetic resonance imaging or computed tomography, but the clinical manifestations are not the same, and imaging features may also be different, presenting a diversified trend in clinical practice. All five patients were given glucose-lowering drugs and improved with or without combination of drugs to control symptoms of chorea. CONCLUSION NH-HC is a rare complication of diabetes, characterized by hyperglycemia and hemichorea. How to identify the extreme situation and make fast judgment is a top priority. Timely and correct control of blood glucose is the key to the treatment, and when necessary, application of dopamine receptor antagonists in patients with combination therapy can accelerate improvement of the clinical symptoms. The prognosis of NH-HC is good, the clinician should strengthen comprehensive understanding of this disease to avoid missed diagnosis or misdiagnosis and enable patients to get more timely and effective treatment.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Introduction: Hypertension is a prevalent condition in the United States and leads to an increased risk of developing various comorbidities. However, the impact of new-onset hypertension after severe burns on patient outcomes is not known. We posit that hypertension onset after severe burn is associated with increased risk of developing comorbidities and mortality. Methods: Using the TriNetX database, burned patients diagnosed with essential hypertension after injury were compared with those who did not develop hypertension; neither had prior hypertension. Each cohort was grouped by sex, percent total body surface area (TBSA) burned, and age, then propensity matched for sex, race, ethnicity, and laboratory values. Outcomes assessed were acute kidney injury (AKI), hyperglycemia, heart failure, myocardial infarction (MI), and death. Results: Those diagnosed with hypertension after severe burn were 4.9 times more likely to develop AKI, 3.6 times for hyperglycemia, 5.3 times for heart failure, 4.7 times for acute MI, and 1.5 times for mortality. Sex analysis shows that men were at greater risk for AKI (1.5 times), heart failure (1.1 times), and death (1.4 times). Women were 1.3 times more likely to develop hyperglycemia. Percent TBSA burned grouping showed increased risk for all outcomes with increasing severity. Age grouping indicated an elevated risk of developing AKI, heart failure, acute MI, and death. Conclusion: New-onset hypertension diagnosis in severely burned patients is associated with acute kidney injury, heart failure, acute MI, and death. Overall, males, older patients, and those with a higher % TBSA burned are at a higher risk of developing these comorbidities.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Hyperglycemia in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus is frequently encountered in the hospital setting. The recent guidelines for the management of inpatient hyperglycemia have included the use of dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitors as an alternative to standard insulin therapy in select patients. This raises the question of the inpatient use of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i), which have gained increasing popularity in the outpatient setting because of beneficial cardiovascular and renal outcomes. This article describes the risks associated with the use of SGLT2i for the management of inpatient hyperglycemia. METHODS A literature review was performed using PubMed and Google Scholar for studies assessing the inpatient use of SGLT2i. Search terms included "SGLT2 inhibitors," "euglycemic DKA," "inpatient hyperglycemia," "DPP4 inhibitors," "hypovolemia," and "urinary tract infections." Studies not written in English were excluded. Forty-eight articles were included. RESULTS Review of the literature showed significant safety concerns with the use of SGLT2i for the inpatient management of hyperglycemia. Hospitalized patients treated with SGLT2i were at increased risk of diabetic ketoacidosis, euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis, hypovolemia, and urinary tract infections. When compared head-to-head, SGLT2i were not more effective for inpatient glycemic control than dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitors and did not reduce insulin requirements when used in combination with insulin. Although SGLT2i can be considered for the treatment of congestive heart failure, they should be started close to or at the time of discharge. CONCLUSION Although SGLT2i are a preferred pharmacotherapy class for the outpatient management of type 2 diabetes mellitus, there are considerable safety concerns when using them in a hospital setting, and avoidance is recommended.

Abstract
Long-term hyperglycemia can lead to diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM), a main lethal complication of diabetes. However, the mechanisms underlying DCM development have not been fully elucidated. Heat shock protein A12A (HSPA12A) is the atypic member of the Heat shock 70kDa protein family. In the present study, we found that the expression of HSPA12A was upregulated in the hearts of mice with streptozotocin-induced diabetes, while ablation of HSPA12A improved cardiac systolic and diastolic dysfunction and increased cumulative survival of diabetic mice. An increased expression of HSPA12A was also found in H9c2 cardiac cells following treatment with high glucose (HG), while overexpression of HSPA12A-enhanced the HG-induced cardiac cell death, as reflected by higher levels of propidium iodide cells, lactate dehydrogenase leakage, and caspase 3 cleavage. Moreover, the HG-induced increase of oxidative stress, as indicated by dihydroethidium staining, was exaggerated by HSPA12A overexpression. Further studies demonstrated that the HG-induced increases of protein kinase B and forkhead box transcription factors 1 phosphorylation were diminished by HSPA12A overexpression, while pharmacologically inhibition of protein kinase B further enhanced the HG-induced lactate dehydrogenase leakage in HSPA12A overexpressed cardiac cells. Together, the results suggest that hyperglycemia upregulated HSPA12A expression in cardiac cells, by which induced cell death to promote DCM development. Targeting HSPA12A may serve as a potential approach for DCM management.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the associations between metabolic syndrome (MetS) and its individual components and the risk of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). METHODS A total of 369,065 individuals were included in the present study based on the UK Biobank. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression models were applied to estimate the associations between MetS and its individual components and the risk of RA. Mediation analysis was performed to further assess the potential mediating role of C-reactive protein (CRP) in the relationship between MetS and RA. RESULTS During a median follow-up period of 12.04 years, a total of 4901 incident RA cases were documented. MetS (hazard ratio [HR] 1.22, 95% CI 1.14-1.30) and 4 of its 5 components (elevated waist circumference [WC; HR 1.21, 95% CI 1.12-1.32], elevated triglyceride [TG] level [HR 1.12, 95% CI 1.05-1.19], reduced high-density lipoprotein cholesterol [HDL-C] level [HR 1.31, 95% CI 1.23-1.39], and hyperglycemia [HR 1.15, 95% CI 1.05-1.25]) were associated with an increased risk of RA. In addition, the risk of RA increased as the number of diagnosed MetS components increased, with the highest risk in participants with all 5 components. Mediation analysis showed that CRP might mediate the association between MetS and RA, accounting for 9.27% of the total effect. CONCLUSION These findings indicated positive associations between MetS and 4 of its components (WC, TG, HDL-C, and hyperglycemia) and the risk of RA, highlighting the importance of MetS management in the prevention of RA.

Abstract
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) could have a variable degree of adverse effects on pregnancy outcomes for both pregnant women and newborns. The purpose of the study was to explore the effect of GDM on pregnancy outcomes in advanced primiparous women. A total of 1076 advanced primiparous women were included between January 2020 and December 2022. All these women were divided into the GDM group (n = 434) and the non-GDM group (n = 642). Variables included baseline characteristics, maternal, and newborn outcomes were collected. The risk of each adverse outcome was analyzed by multivariate logistic regression models. The effect of blood glucose control on pregnancy outcomes was further analyzed among GDM women with good glycaemic control (n = 381) and poor glycaemic control (n = 53). Analysis of baseline characteristics demonstrated a significant difference in prepregnancy body mass index (median, IQR: 22.27 [20.58-24.44] vs 21.17 [19.53-22.86], P < .01) between the GDM group and the non-GDM group. A significantly higher incidence rate of adverse pregnancy outcomes was found in advanced primiparous women with GDM, such as polyhydramniosis, premature birth, low-birth weight, macrosomia, and neonatal intensive care unit admission (all P < .05). Compared with the non-GDM group, the risk of polyhydramniosis was nearly twice as high in the GDM group (adjusted odds ratio: 1.94, 95% confidence interval: 1.01-3.72, P = .04) after adjusted baseline characteristics. Among the GDM group, the women with poor glycaemic control showed a significantly higher incidence rate of polyhydramnios, hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, cesarean delivery, premature birth, low-birth weight, macrosomia, and neonatal intensive care unit admission was significant than the women with good glycaemic control (all P < .05). GDM was an independent risk factor for polyhydramnios in advanced primiparous women. At the same time, good glycaemic control in diabetics advanced primiparous women could reduce adverse pregnancy outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND SARS-CoV-2 posed a threat to children during the early phase of Omicron wave because many patients presented with febrile seizures. The study aimed to investigate predicting factors for acute encephalopathy of children infected by SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant presenting with febrile seizures. METHODS The retrospective study analyzed data from pediatric patients who visited the emergency department of Chang Gung Memorial Hospital in Taiwan between April and July 2022. We specifically focused on children with COVID-19 who presented with febrile seizures, collecting demographic, clinical, and laboratory data at the pediatric emergency department, as well as final discharge diagnoses. Subsequently, we conducted a comparative analysis of the clinical and laboratory characteristics between patients diagnosed with acute encephalopathy and those with other causes of febrile seizures. RESULTS Overall, 10,878 children were included, of which 260 patients presented with febrile seizures. Among them, 116 individuals tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 and of them, 14 subsequently developed acute encephalopathy (12%). Those with acute encephalopathy displayed distinctive features, including older age (5.1 vs. 2.6 years old), longer fever duration preceding the first seizure (1.6 vs. 0.9 days), cluster seizure (50% vs. 16.7%), status epilepticus (50% vs. 13.7%) and occurrences of bradycardia (26.8% vs. 0%) and hypotension (14.3% vs. 0%) in the encephalopathy group. Besides, the laboratory findings in the encephalopathy group are characterized by hyperglycemia (mean (95% CI) 146 mg/dL (95% CI 109-157) vs. 108 mg/dL (95% CI 103-114) and metabolic acidosis (mean (95% CI) pH 7.29(95% CI 7.22-7.36) vs. 7.39 (95%CI 7.37-7.41)). CONCLUSIONS In pediatric patients with COVID-19-related febrile seizures, the occurrence of seizures beyond the first day of fever, bradycardia, clustered seizures, status epilepticus, hyperglycemia, and metabolic acidosis should raise concerns about acute encephalitis/encephalopathy. However, the highest body temperature and the severity of leukocytosis or C-reactive protein levels were not associated with poor outcomes.

Abstract
CONTEXT The components of metabolic syndrome (MetS) are interrelated and associated with renal complications in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). OBJECTIVE We aimed to reveal prevalent metabolic profiles in patients with T2D and identify which metabolic profiles were risk markers for renal progression. METHODS A total of 3556 participants with T2D from a hospital (derivation cohort) and 931 participants with T2D from a community survey (external validation cohort) were included. The primary outcome was the onset of diabetic kidney disease (DKD), and secondary outcomes included estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) decline, macroalbuminuria, and end-stage renal disease (ESRD). In the derivation cohort, clusters were identified using the 5 components of MetS, and their relationships with the outcomes were assessed. To validate the findings, participants in the validation cohort were assigned to clusters. Multivariate odds ratios (ORs) of the primary outcome were evaluated in both cohorts, adjusted for multiple covariates at baseline. RESULTS In the derivation cohort, 6 clusters were identified as metabolic profiles. Compared with cluster 1, cluster 3 (severe hyperglycemia) had increased risks of DKD (hazard ratio [HR] [95% CI]: 1.72 [1.39-2.12]), macroalbuminuria (2.74 [1.84-4.08]), ESRD (4.31 [1.16-15.99]), and eGFR decline [P < .001]; cluster 4 (moderate dyslipidemia) had increased risks of DKD (1.97 [1.53-2.54]) and macroalbuminuria (2.62 [1.61-4.25]). In the validation cohort, clusters 3 and 4 were replicated to have significantly increased risks of DKD (adjusted ORs: 1.24 [1.07-1.44] and 1.39 [1.03-1.87]). CONCLUSION We identified 6 prevalent metabolic profiles in patients with T2D. Severe hyperglycemia and moderate dyslipidemia were validated as significant risk markers for DKD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Type B insulin resistance syndrome is a rare autoimmune disorder affecting glucose homeostasis, characterized by serum autoantibodies to the insulin receptor (AIRAbs). Patients typically present with severe insulin resistance. A mixed hyper- and hypoglycemia phenotype may also occur, as may isolated hypoglycemia. The classic biochemical pattern comprises elevated insulin levels despite hypoglycemia; however, a small proportion of cases demonstrate "isolated hypoglycemia with low insulin." The primary objectives of this systematic review were to identify the clinical characteristics and outcome of this subgroup. DESIGN Systematic review of cases with hypoglycemia with suppressed insulin. Exclusions: hyperglycemia, elevated insulin, AIRAbs not confirmed. METHODS PubMed, Medline, and Embase databases were searched up until February 2023 and complemented by manual citation search. The Joanna Briggs Institute critical appraisal checklist for case reports was used to assess bias. RESULTS A total of 5342 articles were identified after duplicate removal. Eleven, all case reports, met all inclusion criteria and were included. Cases belonging to this subgroup were more diverse in sex, age, and ethnicity when compared with type B insulin resistance as a whole. Of the 11 cases, 3 developed lymphoma. High-dose corticosteroid therapy appeared to be effective therapy for the hypoglycemia, with often rapid response. CONCLUSIONS Isolated hypoglycemia with low insulin forms a rare subgroup of type B insulin resistance. These patients lack the common characteristics of hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia/insulin resistance. Furthermore, while coexisting autoimmune disease is commonly observed, there is potentially an association with aggressive lymphoma, the onset of which may be delayed.

Abstract
Insulin is an essential drug in the treatment of diabetes, often necessary for managing hyperglycemia in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). It should be considered in cases of severe hyperglycemia requiring hospitalization, after the failure of other treatments, in advanced chronic kidney disease, liver cirrhosis, post-transplant diabetes, or during pregnancy. Moreover, in specific patient subgroups, early initiation of insulin is crucial for hyperglycemia control and prevention of chronic complications. Clinical guidelines recommend initiating insulin when other treatments fail, although there are barriers that may delay its initiation. The timing of initiation depends on individual patient characteristics. Typically, insulinization starts by adding basal insulin to the patient's existing treatment and, if necessary, progresses by gradually introducing prandial insulin. Several barriers have been identified that hinder the initiation of insulin, including fear of hypoglycemia, lack of adherence, the need for glucose monitoring, the injection method of insulin administration, social rejection associated with the stigma of injections, weight gain, a sense of therapeutic failure at initiation, lack of experience among some healthcare professionals, and the delayed and reactive positioning of insulin in recent clinical guidelines. These barriers contribute, among other factors, to therapeutic inertia in initiating and intensifying insulin treatment and to patients' non-adherence. In this context, the development of once-weekly insulin formulations could improve initial acceptance, adherence, treatment satisfaction, and consequently, the quality of life for patients. Currently, two once-weekly basal insulins, insulin icodec and basal insulin BIF, which are in different stages of clinical development, may help. Their longer half-life translates to lower variability and reduced risk of hypoglycemia. This review addresses the need for insulin in T2DM, its positioning in clinical guidelines under specific circumstances, the current barriers to initiating and intensifying insulin treatment, and the potential role of once-weekly insulin formulations as a potential solution to facilitate timely initiation of insulinization, which would reduce therapeutic inertia and achieve better early control in people with T2DM.

Abstract
Worldwide, stroke is a leading cause of long-term disability in adults. Alteplase is the only approved treatment for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) and results in an improvement in a third of treated patients. We evaluated the post-stroke unfavourable outcome predictors in alteplase-treated patients from Egypt and Saudi Arabia. We assessed the effect of different risk factors on AIS outcomes after alteplase in Egypt and Saudi Arabia. Our study included 592 AIS alteplase-treated patients. The relationship between risk factors, clinical presentation, and imaging features was evaluated to predict factors associated with poor outcomes. An mRS score of three or more was used to define poor outcomes. Poor outcome was seen in 136 patients (23%), and Patients with unfavourable effects had significantly higher admission hyperglycaemia, a higher percentage of diabetes mellitus, cardioembolic stroke, and a lower percentage of small vessel stroke. Patients with higher baseline NIHSS score (OR 1.39; 95% CI 1.12-1.71; P = 0.003), admission hyperglycaemia (OR 13.12; 95% CI 3.37-51.1; P < 0.001), and post-alteplase intracerebral haemorrhage (OR 7.41; 95% CI 1.69-32.43; P = 0.008) independently predicted unfavourable outcomes at three months. In AIS patients treated with alteplase, similar to reports from other regions, in patients from Egypt and Saudi Arabia also reveal that higher NIHSS, higher serum blood sugar, and post-alteplase intracerebral haemorrhage were the predictors of unfavourable outcomes three months after ischemic stroke.Trial registration: (clinicaltrials.gov NCT06058884), retrospectively registered on 28/09/2023.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetic striatopathy, also known as hyperglycemic hemichorea-hemiballismus, is a rare movement disorder associated with nonketotic hyperglycemia in patients with poorly controlled diabetes mellitus. The pathophysiology is not fully elucidated but may involve hyperviscosity, ischemia, and alterations in basal ganglia neurotransmitters. CASE PRESENTATION We present a case of a 64-year-old Asian female patient with longstanding poorly controlled type 2 diabetes mellitus who developed abrupt-onset right-sided hemichorea-hemiballismus. Laboratory results showed hyperglycemia without ketoacidosis. Neuroimaging revealed left putaminal hyperdensity on computed tomography and T1 hyperintensity on magnetic resonance imaging. With insulin therapy and tetrabenazine, her movements improved but persisted at 1-month follow-up. DISCUSSION This case illustrates the typical features of diabetic striatopathy, including acute choreiform movements contralateral to neuroimaging abnormalities in the setting of nonketotic hyperglycemia. While neuroleptics may provide symptomatic relief, prompt glycemic control is critical given the risk of recurrence despite imaging normalization. CONCLUSION Diabetic striatopathy should be recognized as a rare disorder that can occur with poorly controlled diabetes. Further study of its pathophysiological mechanisms is needed to better guide management. Maintaining tight glycemic control is essential to prevent recurrence of this debilitating movement disorder.

Abstract
ABSTRACT The pharmacological intervention for ischemic stroke hinges on intravenous administration of the recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator (rtPA, Alteplase/Actilyse) either as a standalone treatment or in conjunction with thrombectomy. However, despite its clinical significance, broader use of rtPA is constrained because of the risk of hemorrhagic transformations (HTs). Furthermore, the presence of diabetes or chronic hyperglycemia is associated with an elevated risk of HT subsequent to thrombolysis. This detrimental impact of tPA on the neurovascular unit in patients with hyperglycemia has been ascribed to its capacity to induce endothelial N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) signaling, contributing to compromised blood-brain barrier integrity and neuroinflammatory processes. In a mouse model of thromboembolic stroke with chronic hyperglycemia, we assessed the effectiveness of rtPA and N-acetylcysteine (NAC) as thrombolytic agents. We also tested the effect of blocking tPA/NMDAR signaling using a monoclonal antibody, Glunomab. Magnetic resonance imaging, speckle contrast imaging, flow cytometry, and behavioral tasks were used to evaluate stroke outcomes. In hyperglycemic animals, treatment with rtPA resulted in lower recanalization rates and increased HTs. Conversely, NAC treatment reduced lesion sizes while mitigating HTs. After a single administration, either in standalone or combined with rtPA-induced thrombolysis, Glunomab reduced brain lesion volumes, HTs, and neuroinflammation after stroke, translating into improved neurological outcomes. Additionally, we demonstrated the therapeutic efficacy of Glunomab in combination with NAC or as a standalone strategy in chronic hyperglycemic animals. Counteracting tPA-dependent endothelial NMDAR signaling limits ischemic damages induced by both endogenous and exogenous tPA, including HTs and inflammatory processes after ischemic stroke in hyperglycemic animals.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) are independently associated with increased mortality risk in diabetic patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). However, the role of these biomarkers in patients with diabetes and multivessel disease (MVD) remains unknown. The present study aimed to assess the relative and combined abilities of these biomarkers to predict all-cause mortality in patients with diabetes and MVD. METHODS This study included 1148 diabetic patients with MVD who underwent coronary angiography at Tianjin Chest Hospital between January 2016 and December 2016. The patients were divided into four groups according to their SHR (SHR-L and SHR-H) and NT-proBNP (NT-proBNP-L and NT-proBNP-H) levels. The primary outcome was all-cause mortality. Multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed to evaluate the association of SHR and NT-proBNP levels with all-cause mortality. RESULTS During a mean 4.2 year follow-up, 138 patients died. Multivariate analysis showed that SHR and NT-proBNP were strong independent predictors of all-cause mortality in diabetic patients with MVD (SHR: HR hazard ratio [2.171; 95%CI 1.566-3.008; P < 0.001; NT-proBNP: HR: 1.005; 95%CI 1.001-1.009; P = 0.009). Compared to patients in the first (SHR-L and NT-proBNP-L) group, patients in the fourth (SHR-H and NT-proBNP-H) group had the highest mortality risk (HR: 12.244; 95%CI 5.828-25.721; P < 0.001). The areas under the curve were 0.615(SHR) and 0.699(NT-proBNP) for all-cause mortality. Adding either marker to the original models significantly improved the C-statistic and integrated discrimination improvement values (all P < 0.05). Moreover, combining SHR and NT-proBNP levels into the original model provided maximal prognostic information. CONCLUSIONS SHR and NT-proBNP independently and jointly predicted all-cause mortality in diabetic patients with MVD, suggesting that strategies to improve risk stratification in these patients should incorporate SHR and NT-porBNP into risk algorithms.

Abstract
Diabetes causes arteriosclerosis, primarily due to persistent hyperglycemia, subsequently leading to various cardiovascular events. No method has been established for directly detecting and evaluating arteriosclerotic lesions from blood samples of diabetic patients, as the mechanism of arteriosclerotic lesion formation, which involves complex molecular biological processes, has not been elucidated. "NMR modal analysis" is a technology that enables visualization of specific nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) signal properties of blood samples. We hypothesized that this technique could be used to identify changes in blood status associated with the progression of arteriosclerotic lesions in the context of diabetes. The study aimed to assess the possibility of early detection and evaluation of arteriosclerotic lesions by NMR modal analysis of serum samples from diabetes model mice. Diabetes model mice (BKS.Cg db/db) were bred in a clean room and fed a normal diet. Blood samples were collected and centrifuged. Carotid arteries were collected for histological examination by hematoxylin and eosin staining on weeks 10, 14, 18, 22, and 26. The serum was separated and subjected to NMR modal analysis and biochemical examination. Mice typically show hyperglycemia at an early stage (8 weeks old), and pathological findings of a previous study showed that more than half of mice had atheromatous plaques at 18 weeks old, and severe arteriosclerotic lesions were observed in almost all mice after 22 weeks. Partial least squares regression analysis was performed, which showed that the mice were clearly classified into two groups with positive and negative score values within 18 weeks of age. The findings of this study revealed that NMR modal properties of serum are associated with arteriosclerotic lesions. Thus, it may be worth exploring the possibility that the risk of cardiovascular events in diabetic patients could be assessed using serum samples.

Abstract
Although the short-term mortality of patients with COVID-19 infection and hyperglycemia has been well documented, there is little available data regarding longer-term prognosis. The presence of diabetes has not only influenced disease severity but has also impacted its transmission dynamics. In this study, we followed a historical cohort of patients without previous history of diabetes who presented with moderate to severe COVID-19 and were found to have hyperglycemia (random blood glucose > 140 mg/dL) at the time of admission. We evaluated the need for antidiabetic therapy in these patients at the end of 6 months and the risk factors associated with persistent hyperglycemia determined by monthly values of self-monitored blood glucose. Of the seventy participants who were followed telephonically, 54 (77%) continued to receive antidiabetic therapy or have persistent hyperglycemia (> 140 mg/dL) at the end of 6 months. Persistent hyperglycemia at the end of follow-up, was found to be associated with a higher blood glucose at presentation.

Abstract
The effect of diabetes distress on glycemic control and its association with diabetes complications is still poorly understood. We aimed to study the clinical features of patients with high diabetes distress, focusing on changes in glycemic control and risk of diabetic complications. From the Korean National Diabetes Program data, we investigated 1862 individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) who completed diabetic complication studies and the Korean version of the Problem Areas in Diabetes Survey (PAID-K). A total score of PAID-K ≥ 40 was considered indicative of high distress. Individuals with high distress (n = 589) had significantly higher levels of glycated hemoglobin than those without distress (7.4% vs. 7.1%, p < 0.001). This trend persisted throughout the 3-year follow-up period. Higher PAID-K scores were associated with younger age, female gender, longer duration of diabetes, and higher carbohydrate intake (all p < 0.05). There was a significant association between high distress and diabetic neuropathy (adjusted odds ratio, 1.63; p = 0.002), but no significant association was found with other complications, including retinopathy, albuminuria, and carotid artery plaque. In conclusion, high diabetes distress was associated with uncontrolled hyperglycemia and higher odds of having diabetic neuropathy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aims to develop a fetal rat model of ventricular noncompaction (NVM) using streptozotocin (STZ)-induced gestational hyperglycemia and compare it with a retinoic acid (RA) model. METHODS Female SD rats were categorized into STZ, RA, and normal control (NC) groups. The STZ group was given a high-fat diet pre-pregnancy and 35 mg/kg of 2% STZ postpregnancy. The RA group received a 90 mg/kg dose of RA on day 13 postpregnancy. Embryonic myocardial morphology was analyzed through HE staining, and embryonic cardiomyocyte ultrastructures were studied using electron microscopy. Diagnoses of NVM were based on a ratio of noncompact myocardium (N) to compact myocardium (C) >1.4, accompanied by thick myocardial trabeculae and a thin myocardial compaction layer. Kruskal-Wallis test determined N/C ratio differences among groups. RESULTS Both STZ and RA groups displayed significant NVM characteristics. The left ventricular (LV) N/C in the STZ, RA, and NC groups were 1.983 (1.423-3.527), 1.640 (1.197-2.895), and 0.927 (0.806-1.087), respectively, with a statistically significant difference (P<0.001). The right ventricular (RV) N/C in the STZ, RA, and NC groups were 2.097 (1.364-3.081), 1.897 (1.337-2.662), and 0.869 (0.732-1.022), respectively, with a significant difference (P<0.001). Electron microscopy highlighted marked endoplasmic reticulum swelling in embryonic cardiomyocytes from both STZ and RA groups. CONCLUSION Our model underscores the pivotal role of an adverse intrauterine developmental environment in the onset of NVM. This insight holds significant implications for future studies exploring the pathogenesis of NVM.

Abstract
BACKGRUOUND Current guidelines regarding periprocedural glycemic control to prevent complications after nonsurgical invasive procedures are insufficient. Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) is a widely used treatment for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma. We aimed to investigate the association between diabetes mellitus (DM) per se and the degree of hyperglycemia with postprocedural complications after TACE. METHODS A total of 22,159 TACE procedures performed at Seoul National University Hospital from 2005 to 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. The associations between DM, preprocedural glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), and periprocedural average glucose with postprocedural adverse outcomes were evaluated. The primary outcome was occurrence of postprocedural bacteremia. Secondary outcomes were acute kidney injury (AKI), delayed discharge and death within 14 days. Periprocedural glucose was averaged over 3 days: the day of, before, and after the TACE procedures. Propensity score matching was applied for procedures between patients with or without DM. RESULTS Periprocedural average glucose was significantly associated with bacteremia (adjusted odds ratio per 50 mg/dL of glucose, 1.233; 95% confidence interval, 1.071 to 1.420; P=0.004), AKI, delayed discharge, and death within 14 days. DM per se was only associated with bacteremia and AKI. Preprocedural HbA1c was associated with delayed discharge. Average glucose levels above 202 and 181 mg/dL were associated with a significantly higher risk of bacteremia and AKI, respectively, than glucose levels of 126 mg/dL or lower. CONCLUSION Periprocedural average glucose, but not HbA1c, was associated with adverse outcomes after TACE, which is a nonsurgical invasive procedure. This suggests the importance of periprocedural glycemic control to reduce postprocedural complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetic Striatopathy (DS) is a rare complication of a poor-controlled Diabetes Mellitus consisting of sudden onset of movement disorders. To date, there is still poor knowledge about the pathogenesis. CASE We describe a 79 year old men affected by sudden onset hemichoreic movements whose cause was a non-ketotic hyperglycaemia diagnosed despite the normal blood glucose levels thanks to brain CT and magnetic resonance imaging. Then, we introduce a new magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) finding never described until today which allowed us to produce a new pathogenetic theory of a phenomenon still without definitive explanations. LITERATURE REVIEW We performed a review of DS cases using the Medline database and we extracted main data regarding imaging findings. CONCLUSIONS Thanks to our MRS we show new imaging findings never described until today, with a new pathogenetic explanation, since all the causative hypotheses produced during the past years have never found evidence.

Abstract
Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors lower glucose levels by reducing glucose reabsorption in the kidneys, which can lead to ketogenesis. Euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is a rare but potentially life-threatening complication of SGLT2 inhibitors that can be triggered by trauma. However, the absence of significant hyperglycemia can delay its diagnosis and treatment, which may lead to detrimental consequences. Herein, we report a case of euglycemic DKA following traumatic brain injury in a patient with type 2 diabetes who was taking an SGLT2 inhibitor. Delayed recognition of euglycemic DKA in this case led to progressive metabolic deterioration. This report emphasizes the importance of promptly suspecting, diagnosing, and treating euglycemic DKA in patients with traumatic injuries who exhibit high anion-gap metabolic acidosis, ketonuria, and glucosuria-even if they do not have significant hyperglycemia.

Abstract
Type 1 diabetes is associated with both acute and chronic complications. Acute complications include diabetic ketoacidosis and severe hypoglycemia. Chronic complications can be microvascular or macrovascular. Microvascular complications include retinopathy, nephropathy, and neuropathy. The pathophysiology of microvascular complications is complex. Hyperglycemia is a common underlying risk factor, underscoring the importance of optimizing glycemic management. Patients with type 1 diabetes are also at increased risk of macrovascular complications including coronary artery disease and vascular disease. The American Diabetes Association provides screening guidelines for chronic complications of diabetes. Adherence to these guidelines is an important aspect of diabetes care.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) has been established as a significant factor in the pathogenesis of numerous chronic inflammatory conditions. However, its role in Chronic Rhinosinusitis with Nasal Polyps (CRSwNP) is unknown. This study aims to investigate the association between MetS, its components, and the risk of postoperative recurrence in Chinese patients with CRSwNP. METHODS A retrospective cohort study was conducted on CRSwNP patients who underwent endoscopic sinus surgery in our hospital. Patients were divided into MetS and non-MetS groups, and the clinical characteristics and recurrence rates were compared. All CRSwNP patients were followed up for more than 2-years and further categorized into non-recurrent and recurrent groups. Binary logistic regression analyses were performed to examine the effects of MetS and its components on the risk of postoperative recurrence. RESULTS A total of 555 CRSwNP patients were enrolled in the present study, 157 patients were included in the MetS group and 398 patients were categorized into the non-MetS group. The recurrence rate in the MetS group was significantly higher compared to the non-MetS group (p < 0.05). The rate of MetS, overweight or obesity, hyperglycemia and dyslipidemia were higher in the recurrent group in comparison with the non-recurrent group (p < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis suggested that MetS, overweight or obesity, hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia, and accompanying allergic rhinitis were associated with the risk of postoperative recurrence of CRSwNP (p < 0.05). Moreover, adjusted and unadjusted regression models showed that MetS was an independent risk factor for postoperative recurrence of CRSwNP, and the risk increased with more components of MetS included (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION Our findings revealed that MetS independently increased the risk of postoperative recurrence in patients with CRSwNP, with the risk escalating as the number of MetS components increased. Moreover, accompanying allergic rhinitis was also demonstrated to be a potential risk factor for CRSwNP recurrence. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level 4.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Elevated urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) was associated with increased mortality in general population and diabetic patients. However, whether the association remains similar in the subjects with different status of glucose metabolism was unclear. The optimal level of UACR in predicting mortality also remained unknown. This study aims to investigate the relationship between UACR with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in population with different status of glucose metabolism and explore the predictive cutoff point of UACR. METHODS Six thousand three hundred and eighty-six community-dwelling individuals aged ≥45 years were enrolled and followed for an average of 5.3 years. Cox proportional hazards model was performed to analysis the association of baseline UACR and all-cause as well as cardiovascular mortality according to the status of glucose metabolism. Receiver operating characteristic curve was plotted to explore the optimal predictive cutoff point of UACR. RESULTS With UACR increasing, both the prevalence of all-cause and cardiovascular death increased. Cox analyses showed baseline UACR independently predicted the risk of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in the patients with prediabetes mellitus (pre-DM) and diabetes mellitus (DM) but not in subjects with normal glucose tolerance (NGT). When divided by quartiles of UACR, the cumulative survival rate decreased acrossing the quartiles. Compared to the subjects with lowest quartile of UACR, participants with UACR ≥7.40 mg/gCr had a higher risk of all-cause mortality, and participants with UACR ≥16.60 mg/gCr had an increased risk of cardiovascular mortality in all hyperglycemia subjects. The optimal predictive cutoff point of UACR was about 17 mg/gCr. CONCLUSION UACR was an independent predictor of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in population with pre-DM and DM but not in the subjects with NGT. The optimal predictive cutoff point of UACR is about 17 mg/gCr, which was far below the diagnostic cutoff point of microalbuminuria. Earlier interventions of albuminuria should be initiated from very early stage of hyperglycemia to reduce the burden of death in all patients whose glucose metabolism are impaired.

Abstract
AIMS Chronic hyperglycemia-induced inflammation of the hippocampus is an important cause of cognitive deficits in diabetic patients. The receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE), which is widely expressed in the hippocampus, is a crucial factor in this inflammation and the associated cognitive deficits. We aimed to reveal the underlying mechanism by which RAGE regulates neuroinflammation in the pathogenesis of diabetes-induced cognitive impairment. METHODS We used db/db mice as a model for type 2 diabetes to investigate whether receptor-interacting serine/threonine protein kinase 1 (RIPK1), which is expressed in microglia in the hippocampal region, is a key protein partner for RAGE. GST pull-down assays and AutoDock Vina simulations were performed to identify the key structural domain in RAGE that binds to RIPK1. Western blotting, co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP), and immunofluorescence (IF) were used to detect the levels of key proteins or interaction between RAGE and RIPK1. Cognitive deficits in the mice were assessed with the Morris water maze (MWM) and new object recognition (NOR) and fear-conditioning tests. RESULTS RAGE binds directly to RIPK1 via the amino acid sequence (AAs) 362-367, thereby upregulating phosphorylation of RIPK1, which results in activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome in microglia and ultimately leads to cognitive impairments in db/db mice. We mutated RAGE AAs 362-367 to reverse neuroinflammation in the hippocampus and improve cognitive function, suggesting that RAGE AAs 362-367 is a key structural domain that binds directly to RIPK1. These results also indicate that hyperglycemia-induced inflammation in the hippocampus is dependent on direct binding of RAGE and RIPK1. CONCLUSION Direct interaction of RAGE and RIPK1 via AAs 362-367 is an important mechanism for enhanced neuroinflammation in the hyperglycemic environment and is a key node in the development of cognitive deficits in diabetes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) is a novel marker reflecting the true acute hyperglycemia status and is associated with clinical adverse events. The relationship between SHR and mortality in patients with diabetes or prediabetes is still unclear. This study aimed to investigate the predictive value of the SHR for all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in patients with diabetes or prediabetes. METHODS This study included 11,160 patients diagnosed with diabetes or prediabetes from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2005-2018). The study endpoints were all-cause and cardiovascular mortality, and morality data were extracted from the National Death Index (NDI) up to December 31, 2019. Patients were divided into SHR quartiles. Cox proportion hazards regression was applied to determine the prognostic value of SHR. Model 1 was not adjusted for any covariates. Model 2 was adjusted for age, sex, and race. Model 3 was adjusted for age, sex, race, BMI, smoking status, alcohol use, hypertension, CHD, CKD, anemia, and TG. RESULTS During a mean follow-up of 84.9 months, a total of 1538 all-cause deaths and 410 cardiovascular deaths were recorded. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed the lowest all-cause mortality incidence was in quartile 3 (P < 0.001). Multivariate Cox regression analyses indicated that, compared to the 1st quartile, the 4th quartile was associated with higher all-cause mortality (model 1: HR = 0.89, 95% CI 0.74-10.7, P = 0.226; model 2: HR = 1.24, 95% CI 1.03-1.49, P = 0.026; model 3: HR = 1.30, 95% CI 1.08-1.57, P = 0.006). The 3rd quartile was associated with lower cardiovascular mortality than quartile 1 (model 1: HR = 0.47, 95% CI 0.32-0.69, P < 0.001; model 2: HR = 0.66, 95% CI 0.45-0.96, P = 0.032; model 3: HR = 0.68, 95% CI 0.46-0.99, P = 0.049). There was a U-shaped association between SHR and all-cause mortality and an L-shaped association between SHR and cardiovascular mortality, with inflection points of SHR for poor prognosis of 0.87 and 0.93, respectively. CONCLUSION SHR is related to all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in patients with diabetes or prediabetes. SHR may have predictive value in those patients.

Abstract
Diabetic nephropathy (DN) represents a significant microvascular complication in diabetes, entailing intricate molecular pathways and mechanisms associated with cardiorenal vascular diseases. Prolonged hyperglycemia induces renal endothelial dysfunction and damage via metabolic abnormalities, inflammation, and oxidative stress, thereby compromising hemodynamics. Concurrently, fibrotic and sclerotic alterations exacerbate glomerular and tubular injuries. At a macro level, reciprocal communication between the renal microvasculature and systemic circulation establishes a pernicious cycle propelling disease progression. The current management approach emphasizes rigorous control of glycemic levels and blood pressure, with renin-angiotensin system blockade conferring renoprotection. Novel antidiabetic agents exhibit renoprotective effects, potentially mediated through endothelial modulation. Nonetheless, emerging therapies present novel avenues for enhancing patient outcomes and alleviating the disease burden. A precision-based approach, coupled with a comprehensive strategy addressing global vascular risk, will be pivotal in mitigating the cardiorenal burden associated with diabetes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hyperglycemia has been identified as a risk factor for periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) after total hip arthroplasty (THA). However, there is no consensus with regard to the preoperative blood glucose level (BGL) on the day of the surgical procedure associated with increased risk. We sought to identify preoperative BGL thresholds associated with an increased risk of PJI. METHODS The Premier Healthcare Database was retrospectively queried for adult patients who underwent primary, elective THA and had a measurement of the preoperative BGL recorded on the day of the surgical procedure (preoperative BGL) from January 1, 2016, to December 31, 2021. The association between preoperative BGL and 90-day PJI risk was modeled using multivariable logistic regression with restricted cubic splines. Patients with and without diabetes with a preoperative BGL associated with 1.5 times greater odds of PJI (high preoperative BGL) were then compared with patients with a normal preoperative BGL. RESULTS In this study, 90,830 patients who underwent THA and had a recorded preoperative BGL were identified. The preoperative BGL associated with 1.5 times greater odds of PJI was found to be 277 mg/dL in patients with diabetes and 193 mg/dL in patients without diabetes. Compared with the normal preoperative BGL cohort, those with high preoperative BGL had increased odds of PJI (adjusted odds ratio [OR], 2.60 [95% confidence interval (CI), 1.45 to 4.67] for patients with diabetes and 1.66 [95% CI, 1.10 to 2.51] for patients without diabetes) and 90-day readmissions (adjusted OR, 1.92 [95% CI, 1.45 to 2.53] for patients with diabetes and 1.66 [95% CI, 1.37 to 2.00] for patients without diabetes). CONCLUSIONS Increased preoperative BGL was found to be associated with an increased risk of PJI following primary THA. Surgeons should be aware of patients with diabetes and a preoperative BGL of >277 mg/dL and patients without diabetes but with a preoperative BGL of >193 mg/dL.

Abstract
The abnormal intermediate glucose metabolic pathways induced by elevated intracellular glucose levels during hyperglycemia often establish the metabolic abnormality that leads to cellular and structural changes in development and to progression of diabetic pathologies. Glucose toxicity generally refers to the hyperglycemia-induced irreversible cellular dysfunctions over time. These irreversible cellular dysfunctions in diabetic nephropathy include: (1) inflammatory responses, (2) mesangial expansion, and (3) podocyte dysfunction. Using these three cellular events in diabetic nephropathy as examples of glucose toxicity in the diabetic complications, this review focuses on: (1) the molecular and cellular mechanisms associated with the hexosamine biosynthetic pathway that underly glucose toxicity; and (2) the potential therapeutic tools to inhibit hyperglycemia induced pathologies. We propose novel therapeutic strategies that directly shunts intracellular glucose buildup under hyperglycemia by taking advantage of intracellular glucose metabolic pathways to dampen it by normal synthesis and secretion of hyaluronan, and/or by intracellular chondroitin sulfate synthesis and secretion. This could be a useful way to detoxify the glucose toxicity in hyperglycemic dividing cells, which could mitigate the hyperglycemia induced pathologies in diabetes.

Abstract
Background Catamenial hyperglycemia is a rare type of spontaneous, recurring Diabetic Ketoacidosis(DKA) in females during the luteal phase, most commonly observed in type 1 diabetes mellitus. Even with controlled serum glucose levels, adherence to a diabetic diet, medications, and in the absence of other common influencing factors such as infection, glucose levels tend to increase during the premenstrual period. This uncommon issue related to the menstrual cycle phase has not been extensively researched. Therefore, this study aims to diagnose catamenial hyperglycemia promptly and initiate early treatment to prevent complications. Case report We presented a case of a 19-year-old girl who experienced recurrent DKA during the premenstrual period, without an apparent cause. She was admitted multiple times to various hospitals and sought consultations, undergoing numerous laboratory and imaging examinations, yet the etiology remained elusive. Ultimately, she received a diagnosis of catamenial diabetic hyperglycemia. To prevent recurrence of complications associated with catamenial hyperglycemia, we initiated a comprehensive approach which included continuous glucose monitoring, adherence to a strict diabetic diet, diabetic health education, regular exercise, timely medication administration, and increase in insulin dosage during the premenstrual period based on glucose levels. Conclusions Although catamenial hyperglycemia is rare, it should be considered a cause of recurrent hyperglycemia in any postpubertal female to prevent complications. The specific underlying mechanisms responsible for catamenial hyperglycemia or DKA remain unidentified.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypoglycemia, a prevalent acute complication among individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D), manifests with varied symptoms. Those with diabetes who have previously encountered hypoglycemic episodes commonly develop a Fear of Hyperglycemia (FOH). Illness perception (IP) significantly affects self-care behaviors and health outcomes in individuals diagnosed with T2D. OBJECTIVE This study examined the correlation between IP and FOH among T2D patients and predictors of FOH. METHODS The present study employed a descriptive-analytical design. The target population for this investigation comprised patients diagnosed T2D who sought medical care at the clinic and endocrinology departments of a hospital affiliated with Alborz University of Medical Sciences. The data collection period spanned from August 2019 to March 2021. A total of 300 individuals were included in the sample. Questionnaires were administered to measure both IP and FOH. Statistical analysis was conducted to examine the association between IP and FOH, as well as to identify the predictors of FOH. RESULTS The results of the study indicated a statistically significant relationship between FOH and the mean score of IP among patients with diabetes (p = 0.001, r = 0.393), suggesting a moderate positive correlation between these variables. Additionally, the duration of illness, IP, and level of education were identified as variables that predicted FOH (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION The numerous factors that influence FOH in individuals diagnosed with T2D highlight the necessity for strategic planning and training initiatives aimed at enhancing IP and reducing FOH within this specific population. Healthcare providers should prioritize interventions that not only address patients' concerns but also contribute to the improvement of their overall well-being. By implementing such interventions, healthcare providers can optimize diabetes management strategies and ultimately enhance patient outcomes.

Abstract
Ischaemic cardiovascular diseases, including peripheral and coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, and stroke, remain major comorbidities for individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and obesity. During cardiometabolic chronic disease (CMCD), hyperglycaemia and excess adiposity elevate oxidative stress and promote endothelial damage, alongside an imbalance in circulating pro-vascular progenitor cells that mediate vascular repair. Individuals with CMCD demonstrate pro-vascular 'regenerative cell exhaustion' (RCE) characterized by excess pro-inflammatory granulocyte precursor mobilization into the circulation, monocyte polarization towards pro-inflammatory vs. anti-inflammatory phenotype, and decreased pro-vascular progenitor cell content, impairing the capacity for vessel repair. Remarkably, targeted treatment with the sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) empagliflozin in subjects with T2D and coronary artery disease, and gastric bypass surgery in subjects with severe obesity, has been shown to partially reverse these RCE phenotypes. SGLT2is and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) have reshaped the management of individuals with T2D and comorbid obesity. In addition to glucose-lowering action, both drug classes have been shown to induce weight loss and reduce mortality and adverse cardiovascular outcomes in landmark clinical trials. Furthermore, both drug families also act to reduce systemic oxidative stress through altered activity of overlapping oxidase and antioxidant pathways, providing a putative mechanism to augment circulating pro-vascular progenitor cell content. As SGLT2i and GLP-1RA combination therapies are emerging as a novel therapeutic opportunity for individuals with poorly controlled hyperglycaemia, potential additive effects in the reduction of oxidative stress may also enhance vascular repair and further reduce the ischaemic cardiovascular comorbidities associated with T2D and obesity.

Abstract
Zebrafish have been utilized for many years as a model animal for pharmacological studies on diabetes and obesity. High-fat diet (HFD), streptozotocin and alloxan injection, and glucose immersion have all been used to induce diabetes and obesity in zebrafish. Currently, studies commonly used both male and female zebrafish, which may influence the outcomes since male and female zebrafish are biologically different. This study was designed to investigate the difference between the metabolites of male and female diabetic zebrafish, using limonene - a natural product which has shown several promising results in vitro and in vivo in treating diabetes and obesity-and provide new insights into how endogenous metabolites change following limonene treatment. Using HFD-fed male and female zebrafish, we were able to develop an animal model of T2D and identify several endogenous metabolites that might be used as diagnostic biomarkers for diabetes. The endogenous metabolites in males and females were different, even though both genders had high blood glucose levels and a high BMI. Treatment with limonene prevented high blood glucose levels and improved in diabesity zebrafish by limonene, through reversal of the metabolic changes caused by HFD in both genders. In addition, limonene was able to reverse the elevated expression of AKT during HFD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The stress hyperglycaemic ratio (SHR), a new marker that reflects the true hyperglycaemic state of patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), is strongly associated with adverse clinical outcomes in these patients. Studies on the relationship between the SHR and in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) incidence are limited. This study elucidated the relationship between the SHR and incidence of IHCA in patients with ACS. METHODS In total, 1,939 patients with ACS who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) at the Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical University were included. They were divided into three groups according to the SHR: group T1 (SHR ≤ 0.838, N = 646), group T2 (0.838< SHR ≤ 1.140, N = 646), and group T3 (SHR3 > 1.140, N = 647). The primary endpoint was IHCA incidence. RESULTS The overall IHCA incidence was 4.1% (N = 80). After adjusting for covariates, SHR was significantly associated with IHCA incidence in patients with ACS who underwent PCI (odds ratio [OR] = 2.6800; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.6200-4.4300; p<0.001), and compared with the T1 group, the T3 group had an increased IHCA risk (OR = 2.1800; 95% CI = 1.2100-3.9300; p = 0.0090). In subgroup analyses, after adjusting for covariates, patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) (OR = 3.0700; 95% CI = 1.4100-6.6600; p = 0.0050) and non-STEMI (NSTEMI) (OR = 2.9900; 95% CI = 1.1000-8.1100; p = 0.0310) were at an increased IHCA risk. After adjusting for covariates, IHCA risk was higher in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) (OR = 2.5900; 95% CI = 1.4200-4.7300; p = 0.0020) and those without DM (non-DM) (OR = 3.3000; 95% CI = 1.2700-8.5800; p = 0.0140); patients with DM in the T3 group had an increased IHCA risk compared with those in the T1 group (OR = 2.4200; 95% CI = 1.0800-5.4300; p = 0.0320). The restriction cubic spline (RCS) analyses revealed a dose-response relationship between IHCA incidence and SHR, with an increased IHCA risk when SHR was higher than 1.773. Adding SHR to the baseline risk model improved the predictive value of IHCA in patients with ACS treated with PCI (net reclassification improvement [NRI]: 0.0734 [0.0058-0.1409], p = 0.0332; integrated discrimination improvement [IDI]: 0.0218 [0.0063-0.0374], p = 0.0060). CONCLUSIONS In patients with ACS treated with PCI, the SHR was significantly associated with the incidence of IHCA. The SHR may be a useful predictor of the incidence of IHCA in patients with ACS. The addition of the SHR to the baseline risk model had an incremental effect on the predictive value of IHCA in patients with ACS treated with PCI.

Abstract
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a significant pregnancy complication linked to perinatal complications and an elevated risk of future metabolic disorders for both mothers and their children. GDM is diagnosed when women without prior diabetes develop chronic hyperglycemia due to β-cell dysfunction during gestation. Global research focuses on the association between GDM and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and aims to enhance our understanding of GDM's pathogenesis, predict its risk, and guide patient management. This review offers a summary of various SNPs linked to a heightened risk of GDM and explores their biological mechanisms within the tissues implicated in the development of the condition.

Abstract
Introductions Cystic fibrosis-related diabetes (CFRD) is associated with pulmonary decline, compromised nutritional status, and earlier mortality. Onset is often insidious, so screening for early detection of glycemic abnormalities is important. Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) has been validated in people with CF and has been shown to detect early glycemic variability otherwise missed on 2-hour oral glucose tolerance testing (OGTT). We previously reported that CGM measures of hyperglycemia and glycemic variability are superior to hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) in distinguishing those with and without CFRD. However, little is known about the long-term predictive value of CGM measures of glycemia for both the development of CFRD and their effect on key clinical outcomes such as weight maintenance and pulmonary function. In addition, there have been no studies investigating advanced glycation endproducts (AGE) assessed by skin autofluorescence in people with CF. Methods In this prospective observational study, CGM and HbA1c were measured at 2 to 3 time points 3 months apart in 77 adults with CF. Participants who did not have CFRD at the time of enrollment underwent OGTT at the baseline visit, and all participants had AGE readings at baseline. Follow up data including anthropometric measures, pulmonary function and CFRD status were collected by review of medical records 1- and 2-years after the baseline visits. We applied multivariable linear regression models correlating glycemic measures to change in key clinical outcomes (weight, BMI, FEV1) accounting for age, gender and elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ETI) use. We also conducted logistic regression analyses comparing baseline glycemic data to development of CFRD during the 2-year follow up period. Results Of the 77 participants, 25 had pre-existing CFRD at the time of enrollment, and six participants were diagnosed with CFRD by the OGTT performed at the baseline visit. When adjusting for age, gender, and ETI use, multiple CGM measures correlated with weight and BMI decline after one year but not after two years. CGM and HbA1c at baseline did not predict decline in FEV1 (p>0.05 for all). In the 46 participants without a diagnosis of CFRD at baseline, two participants were diagnosed with CFRD over the following two years, but CGM measures at baseline did not predict progression to CFRD. Baseline AGE values were higher in individuals with CFRD and correlated with multiple measures of dysglycemia (HbA1c, AG, SD, CV, TIR, % time >140, >180, >250) as well as weight. AGE values also correlated with FEV1 decline at year 1 and weight decline at year 1 and year 2. Conclusions Several key CGM measures of hyperglycemia and glycemic variability were predictive of future decline in weight and BMI over one year in this population of adults with CF with and without CFRD. None of the baseline glycemic variables predicted progression to CFRD over 2 years. To our knowledge, this is the first report correlating AGE levels with key clinical and glycemic measures in CF. Limitations of these analyses include the small number of participants who developed CFRD (n=2) during the follow up period and the initiation of ETI by many participants, affecting their trajectory in weight and pulmonary function. These results provide additional data supporting the potential role for CGM in identifying clinically significant dysglycemia in CF. Future studies are needed to investigate CGM as a diagnostic and screening tool for CFRD and to understand the implications of AGE measures in this patient population.

Abstract
Diabetic retinopathy (DR), a complex complication of diabetes mellitus (DM), is a leading cause of adult blindness. Hyperglycemia triggers DR, resulting in microvascular damage, glial apoptosis, and neuronal degeneration. Inflammation and oxidative stress play crucial roles during this process. Current clinical treatments for DR primarily target the advanced retinal disorder but offer limited benefits with inevitable side effects. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) exhibit unique morphological features, contents, and biological properties and can be found in cell culture supernatants, various body fluids, and tissues. In DR, EVs with specific cargo composition would induce the reaction of receptor cell once internalized, mediating cellular communication and disease progression. Increasing evidence indicates that monitoring changes in EV quantity and content in DR can aid in disease diagnosis and prognosis. Furthermore, extensive research is investigating the potential of these nanoparticles as effective therapeutic agents in preclinical models of DR. This review explores the current understanding of the pathological effects of EVs in DR development, discusses their potential as biomarkers and therapeutic strategies, and paves the way for further research and therapeutic advancements.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is a long-term kidney disease among diabetic patients. It is the leading cause of end-stage renal failure. In Ethiopia, DN affects the majority of diabetic populations, but there were inconsistent findings about the determinant factors across the studies. METHODS We have accessed studies using PubMed, Embase, EBSCO, Web of Science, OVID, and search engines including Google and Google Scholar published up to June 2023. The study populations were diabetic patients with nephropathy. The quality of each included article was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa quality assessment scale. The odds ratios of risk factors were pooled using a random-effect meta-analysis model. Heterogeneity was assessed using the Cochrane Q statistics and I-Square (I2). The publication bias was detected using the funnel plot and/or Egger's test (p< 0.05). Trim and fill analysis was carried out to treat the publication bias. The protocol has been registered with the reference number CRD42023434547. RESULTS A total of sixteen articles were used for this reviewed study. Of which, eleven articles were used for advanced age, ten articles for duration of diabetic illness, ten articles for poor glycemic control, and eleven articles for having co-morbid hypertension. Diabetic patients with advanced age (AOR = 1.11, 95% CI: 1.03-120, I2 = 0.0%, p = 0.488), longer duration of diabetic illness (AOR = 1.23, 95% CI = 1.05-1.45, I2 = 0.0%, p = 0.567), poor glycemic control (AOR = 2.57, 95% CI: 1.07-6.14; I2 = 0.0%, p = 0.996), and having co-morbid hypertension (AOR = 4.03, 95% CI: 2.00-8.12, I2 = 0.0%, p = 0.964) were found to be factors associated with DN. CONCLUSIONS The findings of the study revealed that diabetic patients with advanced age, longer duration of diabetic illness, poor glycemic control status, and co-morbid hypertension were the determinant factors of DN. Therefore, treatment of co-morbid hypertension and high blood glucose and regular screening of renal function should be implemented to detect, treat, and reduce the progression of DN. Furthermore, healthcare workers should give due attention to diabetes with advanced age and a longer duration of diabetes illness to prevent the occurrence of DN.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetes (regardless of type) and obesity are associated with a range of musculoskeletal disorders. The causal mechanisms driving these associations are unknown for many upper limb pathologies. We used genetic techniques to test the causal link between glycemia, obesity and musculoskeletal conditions. METHODS In the UK Biobank's unrelated European cohort (N = 379 708) we performed mendelian randomisation (MR) analyses to test for a causal effect of long-term high glycaemia and adiposity on four musculoskeletal pathologies: frozen shoulder, Dupuytren's disease, carpal tunnel syndrome and trigger finger. We also performed single-gene MR using rare variants in the GCK gene. RESULTS Using MR, we found evidence that long-term high glycaemia has a causal role in the aetiology of upper limb conditions. A 10-mmol/mol increase in genetically predicted haemoglobin A1C (HbA1c) was associated with frozen shoulder: odds ratio (OR) = 1.50 [95% confidence interval (CI), 1.20-1.88], Dupuytren's disease: OR = 1.17 (95% CI, 1.01-1.35), trigger finger: OR = 1.30 (95% CI, 1.09-1.55) and carpal tunnel syndrome: OR = 1.20 (95% CI, 1.09-1.33). Carriers of GCK mutations have increased odds of frozen shoulder: OR = 7.16 (95% CI, 2.93-17.51) and carpal tunnel syndrome: OR = 2.86 (95% CI, 1.50-5.44) but not Dupuytren's disease or trigger finger. We found evidence that an increase in genetically predicted body mass index (BMI) of 5 kg/m2 was associated with carpal tunnel syndrome: OR = 1.13 (95% CI, 1.10-1.16) and associated negatively with Dupuytren's disease: OR = 0.94 (95% CI, 0.90-0.98), but no evidence of association with frozen shoulder or trigger finger. Trigger finger (OR 1.96 (95% CI, 1.42-2.69) P = 3.6e-05) and carpal tunnel syndrome [OR 1.63 (95% CI, 1.36-1.95) P = 8.5e-08] are associated with genetically predicted unfavourable adiposity increase of one standard deviation of body fat. CONCLUSIONS Our study consistently demonstrates a causal role of long-term high glycaemia in the aetiology of upper limb musculoskeletal conditions. Clinicians treating diabetes patients should be aware of these complications in clinic, specifically those managing the care of GCK mutation carriers. Upper limb musculoskeletal conditions should be considered diabetes complications.

Abstract
AIMS To investigate the predictive value and prognostic impact of stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) for new-onset atrial fibrillation (NOAF) complicating acute myocardial infarction (AMI). MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective study included 2145 AMI patients without AF history between February 2014 and March 2018. SHR was calculated using fasting blood glucose (mmol/L)/[1.59*HbA1c (%)-2.59]. The association between SHR and post-MI NOAF was assessed with multivariable logistic regression analyses. The primary outcome was a composite of cardiac death, heart failure hospitalisation, recurrent MI, and ischaemic stroke (MACE). Cox regression-adjusted hazard ratios with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were estimated for MACE. RESULTS A total of 245 (11.4%) patients developed NOAF. In the multivariable logistic regression analyses, SHR (each 10% increase) was significantly associated with increased risks of NOAF in the whole population (OR: 1.05, 95% CI: 1.01-1.10), particularly in non-diabetic individuals (OR:1.08, 95% CI: 1.01-1.17). During a median follow-up of 2.7 years, 370 (18.5%) MACEs were recorded. The optimal cut-off value of SHR for MACE prediction was 1.119. Patients with both high SHR (≥1.119) and NOAF possessed the highest risk of MACE compared to those with neither high SHR nor NOAF after multivariable adjustment (HR: 2.18, 95% CI: 1.39-3.42), especially for diabetics (HR: 2.63, 95% CI: 1.41-4.91). Similar findings were observed using competing-risk models. CONCLUSIONS SHR is an independent predictor of post-MI NOAF in non-diabetic individuals. Diabetic patients with both high SHR and NOAF had the highest risk of MACE, suggesting that therapies targeting SHR may be considered in these patients.

Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS Fragility fractures may be a complication of diabetes, partly caused by chronic hyperglycaemia. We hypothesised that: (1) individuals with hyperglycaemia and diabetes have increased risk of fragility fracture; (2) hyperglycaemia is causally associated with increased risk of fragility fracture; and (3) diabetes and fragility fracture jointly associate with the highest risk of all-cause mortality. METHODS In total, 117,054 individuals from the Copenhagen City Heart Study and the Copenhagen General Population Study (the Copenhagen studies) and 390,374 individuals from UK Biobank were included for observational and one-sample Mendelian randomisation (MR) analyses. Fragility fractures were defined as fractures at the hip, spine and arm (humerus/wrist), collected from national health registries. Summary data for fasting glucose and HbA1c concentrations from 196,743 individuals in the Meta-Analyses of Glucose and Insulin-related traits Consortium (MAGIC) were combined with data on fragility fractures from the Copenhagen studies in two-sample MR analyses. RESULTS Higher fasting and non-fasting glucose and HbA1c concentrations were associated with higher risk of any fragility fracture (p<0.001). Individuals with vs without diabetes had HRs for fragility fracture of 1.50 (95% CI 1.19, 1.88) in type 1 diabetes and 1.22 (1.13, 1.32) in type 2 diabetes. One-sample MR supported a causal association between high non-fasting glucose concentrations and increased risk of arm fracture in the Copenhagen studies and UK Biobank combined (RR 1.41 [1.11, 1.79], p=0.004), with similar results for fasting glucose and HbA1c in two-sample MR analyses (ORs 1.50 [1.03, 2.18], p=0.03; and 2.79 [1.12, 6.93], p=0.03, respectively). The corresponding MR estimates for any fragility fracture were 1.18 (1.00, 1.41), p=0.06; 1.36 (0.89, 2.09), p=0.15; and 2.47 (0.95, 6.43), p=0.06, respectively. At age 80 years, cumulative death was 27% in individuals with fragility fracture only, 54% in those with diabetes only, 67% in individuals with both conditions and 17% in those with neither. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION Hyperglycaemia and diabetes are risk factors for fragility fracture and one- and two-sample MR analyses supported a causal effect of hyperglycaemia on arm fractures. Diabetes and previous fragility fracture jointly conferred the highest risk of death in the general population.
