Objective To investigate the effect of type 2 diabetes mellitus on the prognosis of coronary heart disease patients who had a complication of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. Metohds A retrospective study was performed with 393 coronary heart disease patients who were complicated with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. The diagnosis was based on the results of echocardiography and coronary angiography at the heart center of the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University assessed from January 2017 to December 2017. The patients were divided into diabetic group and non-diabetic group. The incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) was compared between the two groups. In addition, the incidence of MACE was compared between the complete revascularization group and the incomplete revascularization group. Multivariate Cox regression analysis was used to analyze the effect of the risk factors on prognosis. Results The prevalence of hypertension and the use of ACEi/ARB in the diabetic group were higher than those in the non-diabetic group (P<0.05), and the level of high-density lipoprotein in the diabetic group was lower than that in the non-diabetic group (P<0.05). The incidence of MACE in the diabetic group (35.8%) was higher than that in non-diabetic group (25%, P=0.027). Complete revascularization improved the prognosis and reduced the incidence of MACE in both the diabetic group and non-diabetic group (P<0.05). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that a history of myocardial infarction (HR=0.44, 95%CI 0.20 to 1.00, P=0.049), incomplete revascularization (HR=17.28, 95%CI 2.34 to 127.43, P=0.005), and ejection fraction (HR=0.90, 95%CI 0.82 to 1.00, P=0.046) were associated with the occurrence of MACE in patients with coronary heart disease complicated with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. Conclusion Type 2 diabetes mellitus affects the prognosis of coronary heart disease patients who have complication of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. Complete revascularization can improve the prognosis of type 2 diabetic patients with coronary heart disease who have complications of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction.
ObjectiveTo investigate the relationship between clinicopathologic characteristics of patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) and diabetes mellitus (DM), and to provide basis for individualized diagnosis and treatment.MethodsThe patients who underwent the first thyroid surgery in the Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University from January 1, 2017 to September 15, 2020 and were pathologically diagnosed as PTC were collected. According to the presence or absence of DM, the clinical features were compared.ResultsThere were 2859 patients without DM and 133 patients with DM in 2992 patients. In patients with or without DM, there were no differences in lymph node metastasis, multiple, bilateral tumors, and extrathyroid invasion between the two groups (P>0.05). However, compared with the PTC patients without DM, the proportion of women with DM was lower (58.65% versus 76.71%, P<0.01), the proportions of age >55 years old (92.48% versus 66.32%, P<0.01) and capsule invasion (67.21% versus 63.11%, P=0.04) with DM were higer. After adjusting for age and gender, the multivariate analysis showed that the risks of larger tumor and capsular invasion in the patients with DM was 1.51 times [95%CI (1.06, 2.16), P=0.02] and 1.75 times [95%CI (1.16, 2.64), P<0.01] respectively as compared with in the patients without DM.ConclusionsIn PTC patients with DM, proportion of women is lower, proportions of elderly population (age >55 years old) and patients with capsular invasion are higer, tumor is larger. Therefore, patients with DM must not neglect regular examination of thyroid morphology and function, and PTC patients should also pay attention to control of blood glucose.
Objective
To explore the correlation between blood glucose and self-management behaviors in patients with type 2 diabetic mellitus before initial basal insulin therapy.
Methods
A convenient sample of 200 patients with type 2 diabetic mellitus who were hospitalized in a tertiary hospital from February to August 2016 were enrolled in the study on a voluntary basis. Patients’ demographic information, fast blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, and scores of diabetes self-care activities were gathered through questionnaires.
Results
A total of 193 valid questionnaires were recovered. Before starting basal insulin therapy, the mean blood glucose and the mean glycosylated hemoglobin of the 193 patients were (12.22±3.95) mmol/L and (10.01±2.38)%, respectively, with 12 patients (6.22%) meeting the goal of fasting blood glucose ≤7 mmol/L and 18 patients (9.33%) meeting the goal of glycosylated hemoglobin <7%, respectively. The total score of self-care activities was 26.76±14.77, in which 3 patients (1.55%) performed well. Spearman analysis demonstrated that the total score of self-care activities was negatively correlated with fast blood glucose ( r=–0.401, P<0.001) and glycosylated hemoglobin (r=–0.227, P=0.028).
Conclusions
The blood glucose levels and self-management behaviors in diabetic patients at the beginning of initial basal insulin therapy are not optimistic. Enhanced management of type 2 diabetic patients with initial basal insulin therapy is the prerequisite to promote diabetes self-care activities.
ObjectiveTo investigate the short-term efficacy of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) for obesity with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2MD) in China.
MethodsClinical randomized controlled trial literatures about domestic LSG treatment of obesity with T2MD were obtained from Wanfang Data, China Knowledge Resource Integrated Database, PubMed and Web of Science English Data. The literatures were selected according to the inclusive and exclusive criteria, then evaluated. Methodological quality assessment and meta analysis were evaluated according to the data extracted from those literatures. The short-term efficacy (fasting blood glucose or glycosylated hemoglobin) was evaluated after operation.
ResultsOne hundred and seven patients performed LSG were retrieved from 7 literatures. The levels of fasting blood glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin on the postoperative 6 months were all obviously decreased as compared with the levels before operation (fasting blood glucose:MD=2.99, 95% CI 2.39-3.60, P < 0.000 01; glycosylated hemoglobin:MD=2.24, 95% CI 1.43-3.04, P < 0.000 01), which on the postoperative 12 months were all obviously decreased as compared with the levels on the postoperative 6 months (fasting blood glucose:MD=0.56, 95% CI 0.16-0.95, P=0.006; glycosylated hemoglobin:MD=0.52, 95% CI 0.22-0.81, P=0.000 6). The postoperative fasting blood glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin levels in patients accepted LSG showed a downward trend.
ConclusionsLSG on obesity with T2MD has an obvious short-term curative effect. But its long-term efficacy still needs to be supported by large samples randomized controlled clinical research data.
To evaluate the value of left ventricular diastolic function in type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) using dual-gate Doppler and relative factors, we included 50 non-obesity and hypertension-free DM patients into the controlled group in the study along with 48 age-and-gender-matched healthy volunteer subjects. The peak early diastolic velocity (E), peak later diastolic velocity (A), deceleration time (DT), anterior mitral annulus diastolic peak velocity (e'), isovolumic relaxation time (IVRT), E/A, E/e', Tei index and TE-e' were measured with dual-gate Doppler. 20 subjects were randomly selected for repetitive analysis. Study showed statistical difference in E/A, DT, e', E/e', IVRT, Tei index and TE-e' between the two groups (P < 0.05). Linear regression analysis showed positive correlation between TE-e' and IVRT, course of DM patients and TE-e'(Beta=0.295, P=0.020), and HbA1C control level and TE-e'(Beta=0.399, P=0.010). Repeated analysis showed good reproducibility for both within and between groups. Dual-gate Doppler has clinical value in evaluating left ventricular diastolic function in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients. The course of type 2 diabetes mellitus patients and HbA1C control level were both closely related with left ventricular diastolic function.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the changes of nutritional status following sleeve gastrectomy with ileal interposition duodenojejunal bypass operation in treatment of nonobese type 2 diabetes mellitus.
MethodsA total of 47 patients submitted to sleeve gastrectomy with ileal interposition duodenojejunal bypass operation from March 2009 to November 2011 in this hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Serum iron, calcium, vitamin B12, folic acid, albumin (Alb), hemoglobin (Hb), glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), and body mass index (BMI) were assessed before operation and on 6, 12, 24, and 36 months after operation.
Results①The values of Alb, Hb, HbA1c, and iron after operation were significantly lower than those of the corresponding values before operation (P < 0.01), the values of calcium, vitamin B12, folic acid, and BMI had no significant differences between after operation and before operation (P > 0.05).②The incidences of the lower Alb and lower iron after operation were significantly higher than those before operation (P < 0.01), the other indexes had no significant differences between after operation and before operation (P > 0.05).
ConclusionsSleeve gastrectomy with ileal interposition duodenojejunal bypass operation is an effective treatment of nonobese type 2 diabetes mellitus. However, nutritional deficiency is one of its side effects, which should be properly diagnosed and handled in order to improving the patient's quality of life and preventing related complications.
ObjectiveTo observe expressions of E3 ubiquitin ligase—mitsugmin53 (MG53) protein, MG53 mRNA, and insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS-1) mRNA in skeletal muscle of non-obese type 2 diabetic mellitus (T2DM) rats after gastric bypass operation (GBP), and to investigate possible mechanism of GBP in improving insulin resistance.MethodsTwenty-four healthy male GK rats were randomly divided into diabetic operation group, diabetic sham operation group, and diabetic control group, 8 rats in each group; besides, 8 male Wistar rats were served as normal control group. The expressions of MG53 protein in skeletal muscle tissue were detected by using Western blot method on week8 after operation. The mRNA levels of IRS-1 and MG53 in skeletal muscles tissue were measured by RT-PCR methods on week 8 after operation.Results① The expressions of MG53 protein and MG53 mRNA in the diabetic sham operation group and diabetic control group were significantly higher than those in the diabetic operation group and the normal control group on week 8 after operation (P<0.05), respectively, which had no significant differences between the diabetic operation group and the normal control group (P>0.05), and between the diabetic sham operation group and the diabetic control group (P>0.05) on week 8 after surgery. ② Compared with the normal control group, the expression of IRS-1 mRNA was significantly decreased in the diabetic operation group, the diabetic sham operation group, and the diabetic control group (P<0.05), while there were no significant differences between the diabetic operation group, diabetic sham operation group, and the diabetic control group on week 8 after operation (P>0.05).ConclusionExpression of E3 ubiquitin ligase—MG53 protein in skeletal muscle tissue in T2DM rats following GBP is decreased, thus reduces the IRS-1 ubiquitin-degradation, increase the expression of IRS-1 protein in insulin signaling pathway of skeletal muscle tissue, and improve insulin resistance of skeletal muscle.
Objective To study the therapeutic effect of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass （RYGB） on type 2 diabetes mellitus （T2DM） rats and explore the possible mechanism of vaspin in RYGB on T2DM. Methods Twenty SD rats with T2DM and 20 age- and sex-matched normal SD rats were randomly divided into 4 groups according to the random digits table：T2DM-RYGB group， T2DM-sham operation （SO） group，RYGB group，and SO group，10 rats in each group. Fasting plasma glucose （FPG） level，serum insulin （INS） level，vaspin level，and homeostasis model of insulin resistance （HOMA-IR） were determined before operation and on week 4，8 after operation，respectively．At the same time，the correlation between vaspin and the indicators （FPG，INS，or HOMA-IR） was analyzed．Results Compared the indicators after operation with before operation，the FPG level，INS level，vaspin level，and HOMA-IR were not significantly different between the T2DM-RYGB group and T2DM-SO group （P＞0.05） or between the RYGB group and SO group （P＞0.05），but the FPG level，INS level，vaspin level，and HOMA-IR in the T2DM-RYGB group and T2DM-SO group were significantly higher than those in the RYGB group （P＜0.05） and SO group （P＜0.05），respectively. On week 4 after operation，the FPG level，INS level，vaspin level，and HOMA-IR decreased in the T2DM-RYGB group，except for the FPG level，the other indexes had no significant differences as compared with the values before operation. On week 8 after operation，the FPG level，INS level，vaspin level，and HOMA-IR further decreased in the T2DM-RYGB group，there were significant differences of these indicators between before operation and on week 8 after operation. Compared the indicators after operation with before operation，the FPG level，INS level，vaspin level，and HOMA-IR were not statistically significant （P＞0.05） in the T2DM-SO group，RYGB group，or SO group. The changes in serum vaspin level correlated positively with those in INS and HOMA-IR before operaion and on week 4，8 after operaion in the T2DM-RYGB group and T2DM SO group rats （P＜0.05），respectively. Conclusions RYGB surgery has a therapeutic effect on T2DM rats，and serum vaspin level decreases and insulin resistance is improved after RYGB surgery，which may be one of the mechanisms of the treatment for T2DM.
ObjectiveTo systematically evaluate the safety of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors on the risk of cardiovascular events in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients.
MethodsDatabases such as the Cochrane Library, PubMed, Elsevier ScienceDirect and EMbase were searched to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about DPP-4 inhibitors for T2DM patients from inception to February 2014. Two reviewers independently screened literature according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, extracted data and assessed the methodological quality of included studies. Then, meta-analysis was performed using RevMan5.2 software.
ResultsA total of 20 RCTs involving 10 402 patients were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that:there were no significant differences between the DPP-4 inhibitors group and the control group in the cardiovascular adverse events (RR=0.86, 95%CI 0.62 to 1.20, P=0.38) and acute coronary syndrome (RR=0.66, 95%CI 0.37 to 1.17, P=0.15). Subgroup analyses by type of liptins and durations showed there were lower risks of adverse cardiovascular events in the DPP-4 inhibitors group of the sitagliptin subgroup (RR=0.49, 95%CI 0.29 to 0.82, P=0.007) and the duration of ≥52 weeks subgroup (RR=0.62, 95%CI 0.39 to 0.97, P=0.04). No significant difference was found between the two groups in hypertension events (RR=1.09, 95%CI 0.84 to 1.40, P=0.52).
ConclusionThe DPP-4 inhibitors are relatively safe. In the long-term treatment of T2DM, the sitagliptin could not only effectively control the level of blood sugar but also might obtain benefits in cardiovascular aspects.
Objective To assess the therapeutic effect of gastric bypass on type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) after a one-year treatment in Mainland China. Methods Databases including The Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, MEDLINE, EMbase, CBM and CNKI were searched from inception to February 2012, and the relevant journals and references of articles were also searched to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) or before-after self-controlled trials on gastric bypass in treating T2DM in Mainland China. Two reviewers independently screened articles according to the predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria, extracted data, and evaluated quality of the included studies. Then meta-analyses were performed using RevMan 5.1.0. Results A total of 6 before-after self-controlled trials involving 131 patients were finally included. All these trials were graded as low quality. The results of meta-analysis showed that the therapeutic effect of gastric bypass on T2DM after a one-year treatment was good. There were significant reductions in both fasting plasma glucose (1 year: SMD=–2.55, 95%CI –3.40 to –1.69, Plt;0.000 01) and glycosylated hemoglobin (1 year: SMD=–1.98, 95%CI –2.33 to –1.62, Plt;0.000 01); there was no marked change in fasting insulin (SMD=–2.03, 95%CI –4.41 to 0.35, P=0.10). Sensitivity analysis indicated that these results were stable, but funnel-plots indicated possible publication bias existed. Conclusion One year after gastric bypass, T2DM patients in Mainland China get reduced in both fasting plasma glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin, but get no improvement in fasting insulin. However, this conclusion still needs to be further proved by more high-quality and large-scale clinical trials with long-term follow-up because of the limitation of quantity, scale and quality of the included studies.
