Two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis was used to determine causality. A total of 179 lipid metabolism data points were used for exposure, and the data were obtained from a plasma lipid metabolite study of 7174 participants. The total muscle mass and total muscle strength, as well as the muscle strength and muscle mass of different sex groups, were selected as the relevant traits of sarcopenia. Data for outcomes were obtained from the UK Biobank, and sample sizes ranged from 135 468 to 450 243. Inverse-variance weighted (IVW), as the main method for evaluating the causal relationship between lipid metabolites and sarcopenia, uses the false discovery rate (FDR) for multiple comparisons and conducts heterogeneity, pleiotropy, and reverse causality tests. Twenty-seven lipid metabolites, mainly phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, ceramide, triacylglycerol, sphingomyelin, and sterol ester, were found to be associated with the risk of sarcopenia. Ceramide (d40:1), ceramide (d40:2), and sterol ester are risk factors for decreased muscle mass and strength. There is a positive causal relationship between various phosphatidylcholine lipids and muscle mass and strength. Sphingomyelin (d42:2) is a protective factor for total muscle strength and female muscle strength. There are inconsistent effects between different lipid metabolites, triacylglycerol, and muscle strength and muscle mass. There was a causal relationship between 27 lipid metabolites and sarcopenia traits, and targeting specific lipid metabolites may benefit sarcopenia diagnosis, disease assessment, and treatment.","PeriodicalId":11106,"journal":{"name":"Diabetology & Metabolic Syndrome","volume":"17 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142256326","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nevertheless, precise evaluation of sarcopenia risk among patients with diabetes is still a big challenge. The objective of this study was to develop a nomogram model which could serve as a practical tool to diagnose sarcopenia in patients with diabetes. A total of 783 participants with diabetes from China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) 2015 were included in this study. After oversampling process, 1,000 samples were randomly divided into the training set and internal validation set. To mitigate the overfitting effect caused by oversampling, data of CHARLS 2011 were utilized as the external validation set. Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis were employed to explore predictors. Subsequently, a nomogram was developed based on the 9 selected predictors. The model was assessed by area under receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves (AUC) for discrimination, calibration curves for calibration, and decision curve analysis (DCA) for clinical efficacy. In addition, machine learning models were constructed to enhance the robustness of our findings and evaluate the importance of the predictors. 9 factors were selected as predictors of sarcopenia for patients with diabetes. The nomogram model exhibited good discrimination in training, internal validation and external validation sets, with AUC of 0.808, 0.811 and 0.794. machine learning models revealed that age and hemoglobin were the most significant predictors. Calibration curves and DCA illustrated excellent calibration and clinical applicability of this model. This comprehensive nomogram presented high clinical predictability, which was a promising tool to evaluate the risk of sarcopenia in patients with diabetes.","PeriodicalId":11106,"journal":{"name":"Diabetology & Metabolic Syndrome","volume":"56 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142256327","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aimed to explore whether changes in the CVAI were associated with CMD incidence. This study included 3,243 individuals aged over 45 years from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study. The exposures were changes in the CVAI and cumulative CVAI from 2012 to 2015. Changes in the CVAI were classified using K-means clustering analysis, and the cumulative CVAI was calculated as follows: (CVAI2012 + CVAI2015)/2 × time (2015–2012). Multivariable logistic regression models were used to assess the relationship between different CVAI change classes and CMD incidence. Restricted cubic splines regression was used to assess the dose–response relationship between cumulative CVAI and CMD incidence. To investigate the relationship between combined exposure to each component of CAVI and CMD incidence, a weighted quantile sum regression analysis was employed. During the 5 years of follow-up, 776 (24%) incident CMD cases were identified. Changes in CVAI and cumulative CVAI were independently and positively associated with CMD. After adjusting for potential confounders, compared with Class 1, the adjusted ORs (95% CIs) for incident CMD were 1.18 (0.90–1.57) for Class 2, 1.40 (1.03–1.92) for Class 3, and 1.56 (1.04–2.34) for Class 4. When cumulative CVAI was categorized into quartiles, compared with Q1, the adjusted ORs (95% CIs) for incident CMD were 1.30 (1.00–1.70) for Q2, 1.34 (1.01–1.79) for Q3, and 1.63 (1.15–2.31) for Q4. In addition, cumulative CVAI in the overall population exhibited a linear association with CMD (Poverall = 0.012, Pnon-linearity = 0.287), diabetes (Poverall = 0.022, Pnon-linearity = 0.188), and stroke (Poverall = 0.002, Pnon-linearity = 0.978), but showed no significant association with heart disease (Poverall = 0.619, Pnon-linearity = 0.442). Participants with higher baseline CVAI level and a change of elevating CVAI level may suffer an increased incidence of CMD. Furthermore, our findings elucidate the underlying mechanisms of the CVAI by highlighting TG as the primary contributor to the observed associations. Long-term CVAI monitoring is of significant importance for early identification and prevention of CMD, with significant implications for clinical practice.","PeriodicalId":11106,"journal":{"name":"Diabetology & Metabolic Syndrome","volume":"44 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142256329","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mortality data was linked to the National Death Index. Based on self-reported leisure-time and occupational moderate-to-vigorous PA (MVPA), participants were categorized into 3 groups: physically inactive (< 150 min/week of MVPA), weekend warrior (≥ 150 min/week of MVPA in 1 or 2 sessions), and physically active (≥ 150 min/week of MVPA in 3 or more sessions). A total of 6067 participants living with type 2 diabetes [mean (SD) age, 61.4 (13.5) years; 48.0% females] were followed for a median of 6.1 years, during which 1206 deaths were recorded.

Being a prospective cohort study, it included 7,967 patients with T2D who underwent serum creatinine and cystatin C tests as part of the Kailuan Group’s 6th annual health examination (2016). Subsequently, eGFRcys, eGFRcr, and eGFRdiff were calculated. Patients were categorized into three groups: negative (<-15 mL/min/1.73 m2), midrange (-15 to 15 mL/min/1.73 m2), and positive (> 15 mL/min/1.73 m2) eGFRdiff groups, respectively. Furthermore, the relationship between the various eGFR measurements and new-onset HF were studied using Cox proportional hazards regression, and the potential improvement in predictive capability was evaluated by adding these eGFR metrics to established HF risk models. Among 7967 participants with mean age of 60.51 years, there were 20.92% women and 79.08% men. At baseline, eGFRcys and eGFRcr values differed by more than 15 mL/min/1.73m2 in 41.3% of participants. During a median follow-up period of 3.76 years, there were 172 (2.16%) new HF cases and 517 (6.49%) all-cause deaths. The cumulative incidence of HF in the midrange, negative, and positive eGFRdiff groups was 1.74%, 4.10%, and 0.61%, respectively (p < 0.001). In multivariable adjusted models, participants in the negative eGFRdiff group had higher risk of HF compared with the midrange eGFRdiff group (HR, 2.15; 95% CI, 1.57–2.94). Conversely, participants in the positive eGFRdiff group had lower risk for HF (HR, 0.40; 95% CI, 0.17–0.93). And each 15 mL/min/ 1.73 m2 higher eGFRdiff was associated with 34% (HR, 0.66; 95% CI, 0.58 − 0.47)lower risk of incident HF. The predictive capacity for HF risk in diabetic individuals was enhanced by adding eGFRcys or eGFRdiff to established HF risk models, with eGFRcys showing more significant additional predictive value. These findings suggest that large differences between eGFRcys and eGFRcr were common in community-based population with T2D. Different eGFR metrics can independently predict HF incidence in patients with T2D. Additionally, metrics like eGFRcys and eGFRdiff provide significant predictive value for HF risks beyond traditional risk factors, with eGFRcys showing more pronounced benefits in such cases.","PeriodicalId":11106,"journal":{"name":"Diabetology & Metabolic Syndrome","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142204685","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The participants were divided into three groups according to METS-IR tertiles: (Ln [2 × fasting plasma glucose + fasting triglycerides] × body mass index) / (Ln [high-density lipoprotein cholesterol]). The occurrence of primary endpoints, including all-cause mortality and cardiovascular (CV) death, was documented. There were 3,248 participants with HFpEF (mean age, 65.7 ± 13.8 years; male, 59.0%) in total who were included in the final analysis. The incidence of primary outcomes from the lowest to the highest METS-IR tertiles were 46.92, 86.01, and 124.04 per 1000 person-years for all-cause death and 26.75, 49.01, and 64.62 per 1000 person-years for CV death.

Sites of atrophy include the hippocampus, which has been implicated in both memory performance and depression. The current study set out to better characterise the associations between poor glycaemic control, memory performance, and depression symptoms, and investigate whether loss of hippocampal volume could represent a neuropathological mechanism underlying these. 1331 participants (60.9% female, age range 18–88 (Mean = 44.02), 6.5% with likely diabetes) provided HbA1c data (as an index of glycaemic control), completed a word list learning task, and a validated depression scale. A subsample of 392 participants underwent structural MRI; hippocampal volumes were extracted using FreeSurfer. Partial correlation analyses (controlling for age, gender, and education) showed that, in the full sample, poorer glycaemic control was related to lower word list memory performance. In the MRI sub-sample, poorer glycaemic control was related to higher depressive symptoms, and lower hippocampal volumes. Total hippocampus volume partially mediated the association between HbA1c levels and depressive symptoms. Results emphasise the impact of glycaemic control on memory, depression and hippocampal volume and suggest hippocampal volume loss could be a pathophysiological mechanism underlying the link between HbA1c and depression risk; inflammatory and stress-hormone related processes might have a role in this.","PeriodicalId":11106,"journal":{"name":"Diabetology & Metabolic Syndrome","volume":"27 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142204715","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
