The objective of this review was to assess the various national and international guidelines on diabetes management and understand the recommendations specific to SUs in various scenarios. A total of 33 national and international guidelines on the management of T2DM published in English were evaluated. These guidelines have considered the latest evidence and suggest the use of certain second-generation SUs as second-line therapy or in combination with other AHAs in select population and specific scenarios. Identification of the appropriate population, classification based on underlying risk, thorough assessment of the comorbid conditions, and a step-wise approach for the selection of appropriate SUs is essential for the effective management of T2DM.

The lack of sustained efficacy of clinically-approved drugs has led to a heightened interest in the development of novel alternative efficacious antidiabetic therapies. One potential option in this regard is the peptide apelin, an adipokine that acts as an endogenous ligand of the APJ receptor. Apelin exists in various molecular isoforms and was initially studied for its cardiovascular benefits, however recent research suggests that it also plays a key role in glycaemic control. As such, apelin peptides have been shown to improve insulin sensitivity, glucose tolerance and lower circulating blood glucose. Nevertheless, native apelin has a short biological half-life that limits its therapeutic potential. More recently, analogues of apelin, particularly apelin-13, have been developed that possess a significantly extended biological half-life.

Objectives: The purpose of this research was to identify biomarkers and determine the prevalence of CMetS in PLWHA using the National Cholesterol Education Program (NCEP) and the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) tools. Methods: Between January 2019 and February 2021, a hospital-based study of HIV-infected patients (n = 288) was conducted. The data were analyzed using binary logistic regression. To control the effect of confounders, independent variables with a P-value of <.20 in the bivariate logistic regression were incorporated into multivariate logistic regression. Statistical significance was defined as a 95% confidence interval and a P-value of less than .05. Results: The risk of CMetS increased twofold as age increased each year (P = .009), 1.2 times as the age at which cART began increased (P = .015), and 6 times with 1 or more co-morbidities (P = .028), according to the NCEP tool. Furthermore, significant NCEP-CMetS correlations were produced by a rise in diastolic blood pressure (P < .001) and cART duration (P = .006). Male gender was 99.9% less likely to be related to CMetS using the IDF tool, and the risk of CMetS increased fourfold with each unit increase in waist circumference (P < .001). Triglycerides and blood type “A” have been found to have substantial relationships with CMetS using both techniques. Conclusion: According to the study, CMetS was found to be common in PLWHA. Age, time on cART, age when cART started, gender, co-morbidities, waist circumference, and diastolic blood pressure were all revealed to be significant predictors of CMetS. Triglycerides and blood type “A” were the only biomarkers found to be significant with CMetS using both the NCEP and IDF tools.","PeriodicalId":44715,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Medicine Insights-Endocrinology and Diabetes","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87581572","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To reduce SST testing, we examined the utility of pre-test cortisol (Cort0) and related parameters in predicting outcome. Design and Measurements: We retrospectively examined the following in all SSTs; (i) Cort0 (ii) indications (iii) and time and place of testing. Receiver operated characteristic (ROC) curves were devised for Cort0 to obtain the best cut-off for outcome prediction in those who had SSTs between 8 and 10 am (Group 1) and at other times (Group 2). Results: Of 506 SSTs, 13 were unsuitable for analysis. 111/493 SSTs (22.5%) were abnormal. (1) ROC curves predicted – (a) SST failure with 100% specificity when Cort0 was ⩽124 nmol/L (Group 1), or ⩽47 (Group 2); (b) a normal SST with 100% sensitivity when Cort0 ⩾314 nmol/L (Group 1) and ⩾323 nmol/L (Group 2).

Recently, thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) was identified to have a direct role on lipid metabolism via increased expression of hepatic proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9). PCSK9 plays a crucial role in lipid metabolism via regulating LDL-C levels. Thus, we aimed to evaluate circulating PCSK9 levels and to assess its relationship with serum TSH and lipids in newly diagnosed patients had overt and subclinical hypothyroidism. Methods: In our study, we enrolled 60 newly diagnosed untreated patients with overt and subclinical hypothyroidism and 30 euthyroid subjects served as the control group. Serum TSH, FT4, FT3, lipid profile and circulating PCSK9 levels using ELISA kits were measured in all subjects. Our data were summarized using mean ± SD or median and interquartile range. Correlations between PCSK9 expression levels and different variables were done using Spearman correlation coefficient. Results: Circulating PCSK9 median levels were significantly increased in patients had overt and subclinical hypothyroidism (12.45 ng/ml, 7.50 ng/ml respectively) compared to the control group (3.30 ng/ml) (P < .001). Circulating PCSK9 levels significantly correlated positively with TSH, total cholesterol, triglycerides, and BMI, and negatively correlated with FT4 and FT3 among all studied subjects. Using multivariate regression analysis TSH was the only significant independent predictor of circulating PCSK9 (P < .001). Conclusion: Our results supports the new implication of TSH in lipid metabolism via the significant association with PCSK9. Whether this relationship between TSH and PCSK9 is a cause or just an association needs further evaluation.","PeriodicalId":44715,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Medicine Insights-Endocrinology and Diabetes","volume":"75 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80659131","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The data were analyzed for cohesive themes using grounded theory. Results: Participants indicated three main barrier themes (physiology, environment, and insurance) and 3 barrier subthemes (mental health, lack of social support, and weather). Three main strategy themes to diabetes management were recognized (medical technology, access to social support, and physical activity). There were 2 strategy subthemes (social media and social accountability). Conclusions: Regular use of social media can be a key tool for social accountability while lack of social support and physiological shifts can be barriers to management of T1DM.

In another hypothesis, the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) plays a significant role in the regulation of hormone secretion from the pancreas such as an increase in catecholamines and glucagon as well as a decrease in plasma insulin levels, a disruption on SNS activity increases insulin levels, and induces glycogenolysis in the liver and lipolysis in adipose tissue during hypoglycemia. Hyperglycemia-hyperinsulinemia exacerbates inflammation and increases the oxidative stress along with regulating the levels of norepinephrine in the brain sympathetic system. Increased inflammatory cytokines have also been shown to disrupt neurotransmitter metabolism and synaptic plasticity which play a role in the development of depression via inhibiting serotonin, dopamine, melatonin, and glutamate signaling. An increased level of plasma insulin over time in the absence of exercising causes accumulation of lipid droplets in hepatocytes and striated muscles thus preventing the movement of glucose transporters shown to result in an increase in insulin resistance due to obesity and further culminates into depression. Further hyperinsulinemia-hyperglycemia condition arising due to exogenous insulin supplementation for diabetes management may also lead to physiological hyperinsulinemia associated depression. Triple therapy with SSRI, bupropion, and cognitive behavioral therapy aids in improving glycemic control, lowering fasting blood glucose, decreasing the chances of relapse, as well as decreasing cortisol levels to improve cognition and the underlying depression. Restoring the gut microbiota has also been shown to restore insulin sensitivity and reduce anxiety and depression symptoms in patients.","PeriodicalId":44715,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Medicine Insights-Endocrinology and Diabetes","volume":"30 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90166495","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
