Abstract

Background: We evaluate whether the Pro12Ala polymorphism of peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor γ2 (PPARγ2) has a role in the progression of diabetes by modulating the occurrence of treatment failure to glucose‐lowering drugs. Methods: We studied 215 patients with type 2 diabetes participating in the Thiazolidinediones Or Sulphonylureas and Cardiovascular Accidents Intervention Trial study. All participants were insufficiently controlled (glycated haemoglobin [HbA1c] 7.0%‐9.0%) with metformin 2 g/day and were randomly allocated to add‐on pioglitazone or a sulfonylurea. Treatment failure was defined as HbA1c ≥8% on two consecutive visits, 3 months apart. Results: Carriers or non‐carriers of the polymorphism had similar age, body mass index, and diabetes duration. Ala carriers had lower fasting plasma insulin, better insulin sensitivity (Homeostasis Model Assessment [HOMA]2‐%S), and worse beta cell secretion (HOMA2‐%B) than non‐carriers. During 24 months of follow‐up, 32.5% among the Ala carriers and 8.6% among non‐carriers (P < 0.001) developed treatment failure with a cumulative incidence of 18.6 vs 4.6/100 person‐years. Those patients who developed treatment failure were older, had a younger age at diabetes diagnosis (48 ± 10 vs 52 ± 7 years; P = 0.032), higher HbA1c (8.1 ± 0.5 vs 7.7 ± 0.5%; P < 0.001), and lower HOMA2‐%B (30 ± 12 vs 46 ± 29; P = 0.015) at study entry, as compared to those who did not develop treatment failure. At multivariate analysis, the Pro12Ala polymorphism was significantly associated with treatment failure (hazard ratio [HR] 4.45; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.79‐11.1; P < 0.001); HbA1c at study entry was the other independent predictor of failure in this study population. Conclusion: The Pro12Ala polymorphism is associated with a greater insulin sensitivity, reduced beta cell function and a substantially increased risk of treatment failure. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

The role of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) on the cardiovascular system has been poorly investigated. It is unknown whether the changes in the vasculature associated with thyroid diseases result from altered thyroid hormone production or whether they are the expression of the direct effect of TSH on endothelial cells. The present study was designed to evaluate the endothelial response of coronary flow to thyroid-stimulating hormone in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) without cardiovascular risk factors.

Abstract

Purpose: Proper evaluation of polyphenols intake at the population level is a necessary step in order to establish possible associations with health outcomes. Available data are limited, and so far no study has been performed in people with diabetes. The aim of this work was to document the intake of polyphenols and their major food sources in a cohort of people with type 2 diabetes and in socio-demographic subgroups. Methods: We studied 2573 men and women aged 50–75 years. Among others, anthropometry was measured by standard protocol and dietary habits were investigated by food frequency questionnaire (EPIC). The intake of polyphenols was evaluated using US Department of Agriculture and Phenol-Explorer databases. Results: The mean total polyphenol intake was 683.3 ± 5.8 mg/day. Non-alcoholic beverages represented the main food source of dietary polyphenols and provided 35.5% of total polyphenol intake, followed by fruits (23.0%), alcoholic beverages (14.0%), vegetables (12.4%), cereal products and tubers (4.6%), legumes (3.7%) and oils (2.1%); chocolate, cakes and nuts are negligible sources of polyphenols in this cohort. The two most important polyphenol classes contributing to the total intake were flavonoids (47.5%) and phenolic acids (47.4%). Polyphenol intake increased with age and education level and decreased with BMI; furthermore, in the northern regions of Italy, the polyphenol intake was slightly, but significantly higher than in the central or southern regions. Conclusions: The study documents for the first time the intake of polyphenols and their main food sources in people with diabetes using validated and complete databases of the polyphenol content of food. Compared with published data, collected in people without diabetes, these results suggest a lower intake and a different pattern of intake in people with diabetes. © 2016 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg

Abstract

Background: The role of thyrotropin (TSH) on the cardiovascular system has been poorly investigated. It is unknown whether the changes in the vasculature associated with thyroid diseases result from altered thyroid hormone action or whether they are a consequence of a direct effect of TSH on endothelial cells. The present study was designed to evaluate the endothelial response of coronary flow to TSH in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) without cardiovascular risk factors. Methods: The study population consisted of threemen and seven women (Mage = 32.6 - 8 years) who underwent total thyroidectomy for DTC. All were receiving therapy with L-thyroxine tomaintain TSH within the reference range. No patient was obese, or had hypertension, diabetes, or dyslipidemia. Patients underwent standard echo-Doppler examination with evaluation of the coronary flow reserve (CFR) of the distal left anterior descending artery obtained by cold pressure test (CPT) before and 24 h after the second recombinant human TSH (rhTSH) injection. Results: Left ventricularmorphology and systolic and diastolic function were normal in all patients. Levels of thyroid hormones and thyroglobulin and antithyroglobulin antibodies did not differ significantly pre- versus post-rhTSH treatment, whereas TSH levels were higher after rhTSH administration. Blood pressure and heart rate were not affected by rhTSH. Coronary flow peak velocity at rest (22.3 -6 vs 23.2- 8.7; p = 0.66) did not differ between baseline and 24 h after rhTSH, while post-CPT velocity (29.3 - 6.8 vs 34.4 - 10.9; p < 0.05) and the CFR were higher after rhTSH administration (1.32 - 0.2 vs. 1.53 - 0.2; p < 0.01). Conclusions: rhTSH administration may improve the CFR after the non-pharmacological stressor CPT in DTC patients. The increase of coronary blood flow after rhTSH suggests that TSH may exert a protective effect on the coronary endothelium. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

We show the long-term efficacy and safety of modified biliopancreatic diversion for the treatment of LPL-deficiency. How this option compares with gene therapy is difficult to evaluate due to limited experience. Surgery may be the first option in patients in whom medical therapy is ineffective and gene therapy not applicable. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Objective: Cross-sectional studies suggest the association between diabetic nephropathy and the PPARγ2 Pro12Ala polymorphism of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ2 (PPARγ2). Prospective data are limited to microalbuminuria and no information on renal function is available to date. The present study evaluates the association between the Pro12Ala polymorphism of PPARγ2 and the progression of albuminuria and decay in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in type 2 diabetes. Patients and measurements: We studied 256 patients with an average 5-year follow-up. Among others, urinary albumin excretion rate (UAER) was measured on spot sample, GFR was estimated with the CKD-EPI Equation. Results: Baseline UAER and GFR were similar for carriers or non-carriers of the polymorphism. At follow-up no significant changes from baseline were observed for UAER or eGFR in carriers of the Pro12Ala polymorphism whereas a significant increase in UAER [17 (11.3-37.9) versus 24.5 (13.8-49.9) μg/mg, p < 0.006)] and a significant reduction in the eGFR (82.8 ± 14.5 versus 80.3 ± 17.3 ml/min/1.73, m2 p = 0.02), were observed in non carriers of the Pro12Ala polymorphism. Progression of nephropathy - defined according to a combined end point of UAER and eGFR- i.e. doubling of baseline UAER to at least 100 μg/mg, or new onset microalbuminuria, or progression from micro to macroalbuminuria, or 25% reduction of eGFR, or annualized eGFR decline >3 ml/min/year - was significantly less frequent in Ala carriers than non carriers (11.4% vs 35.8%; p < 0.01); HR adjusted for baseline age, AER, eGFR, HbA1c, diabetes duration and blood pressure was 0.32 (0.12-0.80). Conclusions: This study found that among patients with type 2 diabetes, the PPARγ2 Pro12Ala polymorphism is protective against progression of nephropathy and decay of renal function independent of major confounders.

Abstract

BACKGROUND Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) are inherited lysosomal storage disorders caused by deficiency of required glycosaminoglycans breakdown enzymes, inducing cardiac involvement. Little is known about myocardial deformation involvement in MPS. Our aim was to assess biventricular structure and function in asymptomatic children with MPS using standard echo Doppler and 2D speckle tracking (STE). METHODS Fifteen MPS children (one type I, six type II, three type III A, one III B, three IV A, one VI), asymptomatic for cardiac symptoms, and 15 age and sex-matched healthy controls underwent echo Doppler and STE. Left ventricular (LV) wall thicknesses, diameters, and mass were normalized by z-score. LV global longitudinal strain (GLS), global circumferential strain (GCS), global radial strain (GRS) at papillary muscles, LV twisting, and right ventricular (RV) GLS were measured. RESULTS The two groups were comparable for body mass index, heart rate, and blood pressure. LV mass index and relative wall thickness were higher in MPS. Ejection fraction (EF), and s' velocity did not differ between the two groups. E/A ratio was lower and E/e' higher in MPS. Tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion, RV s' and e' were lower in MPS. LV GLS did not differ between the two groups, but GCS (P=.014), GRS (P=.023), twisting (P=.012), and RV GLS (P

Abstract

Background and aims: Diabetic women have a more adverse plasma lipid profile than men. Sex differences in dietary habits may play a role, but are little investigated. The study evaluates the quality of diet, adherence to the nutritional recommendations of the Diabetes and Nutrition Study Group and their relation with plasma lipid in men and women with diabetes. Methods and results: We studied 2573 people, aged 50e75, enrolled in the TOSCA.IT study (clinicaltrials.gov; NCT00700856). Plasma lipids were measured centrally. Diet was assessed with a semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire.Women had a more adverse plasma lipid profile than men.Women consumed significantly more legumes, vegetables, fruits, eggs, milk, vegetable oils, and added sugar, whereas men consumed more starchy foods, soft drinks and alcoholic beverages. This stands for a higher proportion (%) of energy intake from saturated fat and added sugar (12.0 2.4 vs 11.5 2.5 and 3.4 3.2 vs 2.3 3.2, P < 0.04), and a higher intake of fiber (11.2 2.8 vs 10.4 2.6 g/1000 Kcal/day) in women. Adherence to the recommendations for saturated fat and fiber consumption was associated with significantly lower LDL-cholesterol regardless of sex. Adherence to the recommendations for added sugars was associated with significantly lower triglycerides and higher HDL-cholesterol in men and women. Conclusions: Men and women with diabetes show significant differences in adherence to nutritional recommendations, but sex differences in plasma lipid profile are unlikely to be explained by nutritional factors. Adherence to the nutritional recommendations is associated with a better plasma lipid profile regardless of sex, thus reinforcing the importance of substituting saturated for unsaturated fat sources, increasing fiber and reducing added sugar intake.
