RESUMO
BACKGROUND AND AIM: Post-transplant diabetes mellitus (PTDM) is a complex condition arising from various factors including immunosuppressive medications, insulin resistance, impaired insulin secretion, and inflammatory processes. Its impact on patient and graft survival is a significant concern in kidney transplant recipients. PTDM's impact on kidney transplant recipients, including patient and graft survival and cardiovascular mortality, is a significant concern, given conflicting findings in previous studies. This meta-analysis was imperative to not only incorporate emerging evidence but also to delve into cause-specific mortality considerations. We aimed to comprehensively evaluate the association between PTDM and clinical outcomes, including all-cause and cardiovascular mortality, sepsis-related mortality, malignancy-related mortality, and graft loss, in kidney transplant recipients. MATERIALS AND METHODS: PubMed, Ovid/Medline, Web of Science, Scopus, and Cochrane Library databases were screened and studies evaluating the effect of PTDM on all-cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality, sepsis-related mortality, malignancy-related mortality, and overall graft loss in adult kidney transplant recipients were included. RESULTS: 53 studies, encompassing a total of 138,917 patients, to evaluate the association between PTDM and clinical outcomes were included. Our analysis revealed a significant increase in all-cause mortality (RR 1.70, 95% CI 1.53 to 1.89, P<0.001) and cardiovascular mortality (RR 1.86, 95% CI 1.36 to 2.54, P<0.001) among individuals with PTDM. Moreover, PTDM was associated with a higher risk of sepsis-related mortality (RR 1.96, 95% CI 1.51 to 2.54, P<0.001) but showed no significant association with malignancy-related mortality (RR 1.20, 95% CI 0.76 to 1.88). Additionally, PTDM was linked to an increased risk of overall graft failure (RR 1.33, 95% CI 1.16 to 1.54, P<0.001). CONCLUSION: These findings underscore the importance of comprehensive management strategies and the need for research targeting PTDM to improve outcomes in kidney transplant recipients.
RESUMO
Statin is crucial for acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients. However, the risk of new-onset diabetes mellitus (NODM) associated with statin is a concern. This study aimed to determine the incremental diabetogenic effects of statins according to their intensity and dose in AMI patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Among 13,104 patients enrolled in the Korea AMI Registry between 2011 and 2015, 6152 patients without diabetes mellitus (DM) who underwent PCI and received moderate-to-high-intensity atorvastatin and rosuvastatin were selected for the study. The endpoints were NODM and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), composite of all-cause mortality, recurrent MI, and revascularization up to 3 years. Among the participants, 3747 and 2405 received moderate- and high-intensity statins, respectively. The Kaplan-Meier curves demonstrated a higher incidence of NODM in patients with high-intensity statins than those with moderate-intensity. High-intensity statin was a significant predictor of NODM after adjusting for other co-variables (HR = 1.316, 95% CI 1.024-1.692; P < 0.032). Higher dose of rosuvastatin was associated with a higher cumulative incidence of NODM, but this dose-dependency was not apparent with atorvastatin. Cumulative incidence of MACE decreased dose-dependently only with atorvastatin. High-intensity statin was associated with a higher cumulative incidence of NODM in AMI patients, and this association was more evident in rosuvastatin. The different diabetogenic effects of the two statins provide supporting evidence for understanding the nuanced nature of statin treatment in relation to NODM.

Background and Objectives: Pancreatic cancer (PC) is the third cause of cancer-related deaths. Early detection and interception of premalignant pancreatic lesions represent a promising strategy to improve outcomes. We evaluated risk factors of focal pancreatic lesions (FPLs) in asymptomatic individuals at hereditary high risk for PC. Methods: This is an observational single-institution cohort study conducted over a period of 5 years. Surveillance was performed through imaging studies (EUS or magnetic resonance imaging/magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography) and serum biomarkers. We collected demographic characteristics and used univariate and multivariate logistic regression models to evaluate associations between potential risk factors and odd ratios (ORs) for FPL development. Results: A total of 205 patients completed baseline screening. Patients were followed up to 53 months. We detected FPL in 37 patients (18%) at baseline; 2 patients had lesions progression during follow-up period, 1 of them to PC. Furthermore, 13 patients developed new FPLs during the follow-up period. Univariate and multivariate analyses revealed that new-onset diabetes (NOD) is strongly associated with the presence of FPL (OR, 10.94 [95% confidence interval, 3.01-51.79; P < 0.001]; OR, 9.98 [95% confidence interval, 2.15-46.33; P = 0.003]). Follow-up data analysis revealed that NOD is also predictive of lesions progression or development of new lesions during screening (26.7% vs. 2.6%; P = 0.005). Conclusions: In a PC high-risk cohort, NOD is significantly associated with presence of FPL at baseline and predictive of lesions progression or new lesions during surveillance.
RESUMO
A 50-year-old man presented with poorly controlled new-onset diabetes mellitus. Six months after diagnosis, episodes of intense abdominal pain with vomiting appeared. Abdominal CT revealed signs of acute pancreatitis with structural changes in the pseudocysts. In the absence of biliary lithiasis or a toxic etiology of acute pancreatitis, the patient progressed unfavorably with increased abdominal pain and fever. Control imaging tests (two and 10 months later) showed the evolution of phlegmonous/necrotic collections, together with portal vein thrombosis and splenomegaly. Given the suggestive signs of possible occult malignancy, such as portal thrombosis, histological analysis of the ascitic fluid revealed a pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Despite the initiation of chemotherapy, the patient died 12 months after diagnosis.
RESUMO
Simple and practical tools for screening high-risk new-onset diabetes after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) (NODAP) are urgently needed to improve post-PCI prognosis. We aimed to evaluate the risk factors for NODAP and develop an online prediction tool using conventional variables based on a multicenter database. China evidence-based Chinese medicine database consisted of 249, 987 patients from 4 hospitals in mainland China. Patients ≥ 18 years with implanted coronary stents for acute coronary syndromes and did not have diabetes before PCI were enrolled in this study. According to the occurrence of new-onset diabetes mellitus after PCI, the patients were divided into NODAP and Non-NODAP. After least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression and logistic regression, the model features were selected and then the nomogram was developed and plotted. Model performance was evaluated by the receiver operating characteristic curve, calibration curve, Hosmer-Lemeshow test and decision curve analysis. The nomogram was also externally validated at a different hospital. Subsequently, we developed an online visualization tool and a corresponding risk stratification system to predict the risk of developing NODAP after PCI based on the model. A total of 2698 patients after PCI (1255 NODAP and 1443 non-NODAP) were included in the final analysis based on the multicenter database. Five predictors were identified after screening: fasting plasma glucose, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, hypertension, family history of diabetes and use of diuretics. And then we developed a web-based nomogram ( https://mr.cscps.com.cn/wscoringtool/index.html ) incorporating the above conventional factors for predicting patients at high risk for NODAP. The nomogram showed good discrimination, calibration and clinical utility and could accurately stratify patients into different NODAP risks. We developed a simple and practical web-based nomogram based on multicenter database to screen for NODAP risk, which can assist clinicians in accurately identifying patients at high risk of NODAP and developing post-PCI management strategies to improved patient prognosis.

BACKGROUND: COVID-19, an infectious disease pandemic, affected millions of people globally, resulting in high morbidity and mortality. Causing further concern, significant proportions of COVID-19 survivors endure the lingering health effects of SARS-CoV-2, the pathogen that causes COVID-19. One of the diseases manifesting as a postacute sequela of COVID-19 (also known as "long COVID") is new-onset diabetes. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to examine the incidence of new-onset diabetes in patients with long COVID and assess the excess risk compared with individuals who tested negative for COVID-19. The study also aims to estimate the population-attributable fraction for COVID-19 as a risk factor for new-onset diabetes in long COVID and investigate the clinical course of new-onset diabetes cases. METHODS: This is a protocol for a systematic review and meta-analysis. PubMed, MEDLINE, Embase, Scopus, and Web of Science databases will be systematically searched to identify articles published between December 2019 and July 2024. A comprehensive search strategy for each database will be developed using a combination of Medical Subject Headings terms, subject headings, and text words to identify eligible studies. Cohort studies and randomized controlled trials (only control arms) involving patients with COVID-19 of any age, with follow-up data on new-onset diabetes in long COVID, will be considered for inclusion. Controls will comprise individuals who tested negative for COVID-19, with or without other respiratory tract infections. Three independent reviewers (AST, NB, and TT) will perform article selection, data extraction, and quality assessment of the studies. A fourth reviewer (ST) will review the identified studies for final inclusion in the analysis. The random-effects DerSimonian-Laird models will be used to estimate the pooled incidence proportion (%), incidence rate of diabetes (per 1000 person-years), and risk ratio (with 95% CIs) for diabetes incidence. RESULTS: A total of 1972 articles were identified through the initial search conducted in August 2023. After excluding duplicates, conducting title and abstract screening, and completing full-text reviews, 41 articles were found to be eligible for inclusion. The search will be updated in July 2024. Currently, data extraction is underway, and the meta-analysis is expected to be completed in August 2024. Publication of the study findings is anticipated by the end of 2024. CONCLUSIONS: The study findings should provide valuable insights to inform both clinical practice and public health policies regarding the effective management of new-onset diabetes in patients with long COVID.

Background: We aimed to identify the characteristics of new-onset diabetes after liver transplantation (LT) (NODAT) and investigate its impacts on post-transplant outcomes. Methods: Adult LT patients between 2014 and 2020 who used tacrolimus as initial immunosuppression and survived 3 months at least were evaluated. Patients who developed NODAT within 3 months after LT were classified as NODAT group. Also, patients were further classified as history of diabetes before LT (PHDBT) and non-diabetes (ND) groups. Patient characteristics, post-LT outcomes, and cardiovascular and/or pulmonary complications were compared. Results: A total of 83, 225, and 263 patients were classified into NODAT, PHDBT, and ND groups. The proportion of cholestatic liver disease and rejection within 90 days were higher in NODAT group. Mean serum tacrolimus concentration trough level in the first week after LT was 7.12, 6.12, and 6.12 ng/mL (p < 0.001). Duration of corticosteroids was significantly longer in NODAT compared to PHDBD or ND (416, 289, and 228 days, p < 0.001). Three-year graft and patient survival were significantly worse in NODAT than ND (80.5% vs. 95.0%, p < 0.001: 82.0% vs. 95.4%, p < 0.001) but similar to PHDBT. Adjusted risks of 3-year graft loss and patient death using Cox regression analysis were significantly higher in NODAT compared to ND (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] 3.41, p = 0.004; aHR 3.61, p = 0.004). Incidence rates of cardiovascular or pulmonary complications after LT in NODAT were significantly higher than ND but similar to PHDBT. Conclusion: Higher initial tacrolimus concentration and early rejection might be risk factors for NODAT. NODAT was associated with worse post-transplant outcomes.
RESUMO
(1) Background: Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are at higher risk of cancer but how these two diseases associate is still debated. The goal of this study was the assessment of the overall incidence of cancer among patients with newly diagnosed T2DM in Hungary. (2) Methods: A nationwide, retrospective, longitudinal study was performed using a Hungarian database. After exclusion of cases of age < 18 years, with gestational diabetes, with polycystic ovary syndrome, and with type 1 and prevalent type 2 diabetes mellitus, the incident T2DM (approx. 50,000 cases yearly) and for comparison, the diabetes-free Hungarian adult population (approx. 7,000,000 cases yearly) was included in the study. The primary endpoints were the overall and site-specific incidence and annual percentage change of the incidence of cancer in both populations. (3) Results: The overall incidence of cancer in patients amounted to 29.4/1000 and 6.6/1000 with or without T2DM, respectively, and the OR (95%CI) of cancer of the T2DM group was 4.32 (4.14-4.53), p < 0.0001. The risk of having cancer was age dependent. The incidence of cancer was declining in the non-diabetic but was unchanged in the T2DM population. The average lag time of diagnosing cancer after the detection of T2DM was 3.86 months. (4) Conclusions: Incident T2DM is associated with a significantly higher overall risk of incident cancer, with a reverse correlation of age. Newly registered T2DM patients were suggested to be screened for cancer within 6 months.
RESUMO
Individuals with hereditary pancreatic cancer risk include high risk individuals (HRIs) with germline genetic susceptibility to pancreatic cancer (PC) and/or a strong family history of PC. Previously, studies have shown that PC surveillance in HRIs can downstage PC diagnosis and extend survival leading to pancreatic surveillance being recommended for certain HRIs. However, the optimal surveillance strategy remains uncertain, including which modalities should be used for surveillance, how frequently should surveillance be performed, and which sub-groups of HRIs should undergo surveillance. Additionally, in the ideal world PC surveillance should also be cost-effective. Cost-effectiveness analysis is a valuable tool that can consider the costs, potential health benefits, and risks among various PC surveillance strategies. In this review, we summarize the cost-effectiveness of various PC surveillance strategies for HRIs for hereditary pancreatic cancer and provide potential avenues for future work in this field. Additionally, we include cost-effectiveness studies among individuals with new-onset diabetes (NoD), a high-risk group for sporadic PC, as a comparison.

The immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) cemiplimab is a human monoclonal antibody used in the treatment of locally advanced and metastatic cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) not amenable to surgery or radiation therapy. Although cemiplimab shows excellent efficacy with a good tolerability profile, it can cause side effects, including potentially life-threatening endocrinopathies. We discuss the case of a 77-year-old Caucasian female with CSCC treated with only three cycles of cemiplimab who presented with altered mental status and was found to have severe hyperglycemia, hyperosmolarity, ketonemia, glucosuria, and ketonuria concerning for hyperosmolar hyperglycemic syndrome (HHS) with concurrent diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). The patient made a rapid recovery in the hospital while on standard therapies for HHS/DKA and cemiplimab was discontinued upon discharge. While there have been reports of cemiplimab-induced DKA, to our knowledge, this is the first reported case of cemiplimab-induced HHS-DKA. This report aims to shed light on cemiplimab-induced HHS-DKA and to underscore the need to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying ICI-induced diabetes mellitus (ICI-DM).
RESUMO
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) is one of the most aggressive cancers. It has a poor 5-year survival rate of 12%, partly because most cases are diagnosed at advanced stages, precluding curative surgical resection. Early-stage PDA has significantly better prognoses due to increased potential for curative interventions, making early detection of PDA critically important to improved patient outcomes. We examine current and evolving early detection concepts, screening strategies, diagnostic yields among high-risk individuals, controversies, and limitations of standard-of-care imaging.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: The association between macronutrient intake and diabetes is unclear. We used data from the China Health and Nutrition Survey to explore the association between macronutrient intake trajectories and diabetes risk in this study. METHODS: We included 6755 participants who did not have diabetes at baseline and participated in at least three surveys. The energy supply ratio of carbohydrate, protein, and fat was further calculated from dietary data; different macronutrient trajectories were determined using multitrajectory models; and multiple Cox regression models were used to evaluate the association between these trajectories and diabetes. RESULTS: We found three multitrajectories: decreased low carbohydrate-increased moderate protein-increased high fat (DLC-IMP-IHF), decreased high carbohydrate-moderate protein-increased low fat (DHC-MP-ILF), and balanced-macronutrients (BM). Compared to the BM trajectory, DHC-MP-ILF trajectories were significantly associated with increased risk of diabetes (hazard ratio [HR]: 3.228, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.571-6.632), whereas no association between DLC-IMP-IHF trajectories and diabetes was found in our study (HR: 0.699, 95% CI: 0.351-1.392). CONCLUSIONS: The downward trend of high carbohydrate and the increasing trend of low fat increased the risk of diabetes in Chinese adults.

AIM: New-onset diabetes mellitus is a frequent and severe complication arising after liver transplantation (LT). We aimed to identify the risk factors for new-onset diabetes mellitus after liver transplantation (NODALT) and to develop a risk prediction score system for relevant risks. METHODS: We collected and analyzed data from all recipients who underwent liver transplantation at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University. The OR derived from a multiple logistic regression predicting the presence of NODALT was used to calculate the risk prediction score. The performance of the risk prediction score was externally validated in patients who were from the CLTR (China Liver Transplant Registry) database. RESULTS: A total of 468 patients met the outlined criteria and finished the follow-up. Overall, NODALT was diagnosed in 115 (24.6%) patients. Age, preoperative impaired fasting glucose (IFG), postoperative fasting plasma glucose (FPG), and the length of hospital stay were significantly associated with the presence of NODALT. The risk prediction score includes age, preoperative IFG, postoperative FPG, and the length of hospital stay. The risk prediction score of the area under the receiver operating curve was 0.785 (95% CI: 0.724-0.846) in the experimental population and 0.782 (95% CI: 0.708-0.856) in the validation population. CONCLUSIONS: Age at the time of transplantation, preoperative IFG, postoperative FPG, and length of hospital stay were independent predictive factors of NODALT. The use of a simple risk prediction score can identify the patients who have the highest risk of NODALT and interventions may start early.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)-induced new-onset diabetes has raised widespread concerns. Increased glucose concentration and insulin resistance levels were observed in the COVID-19 patients. COVID-19 patients with newly diagnosed diabetes may have worse clinical outcomes and can have serious consequences. The types and exact mechanisms of COVID-19-caused diabetes are not well understood. Understanding the direct effects of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) on pancreatic beta cells and insulin target metabolism organs, such as the liver, muscle, and adipose tissues, will provide new ideas for preventing and treating the new-onset diabetes induced by COVID-19.
RESUMO
PURPOSE: New-onset diabetes after transplantation (NODAT) is a frequent metabolic complication associated with podocyte damage and renal allograft dysfunction. Thus, Wilm's tumor-1 (WT-1) protein, as a podocyte marker, holds promise as an option to evaluate renal allograft dysfunction in NODAT. Therefore, the study aimed to investigate urinary WT-1 levels in NODAT patients during the first year after kidney transplantation (KTx). MATERIALS AND METHODS: KTx patients were categorized into non-NODAT and NODAT groups. Fasting blood glucose, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), urinary albumin/creatinine ratio (ACR), serum creatinine, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and urinary WT-1 were measured at 3, 6, 9, and 12-months post-KTx. RESULTS: The NODAT group manifested elevated levels of blood glucose and HbA1c during the first year post-KTx. Also, exhibited elevations in ACR and serum creatinine levels at 6, 9, and 12-months post-KTx when compared to non-NODAT group. Conversely, eGFR values in the NODAT group demonstrated significant declines at 3, 6, and 9-months post-KTx relative to non-NODAT. Furthermore, NODAT group exhibited a median annual eGFR of 47 âmL/min/1.73 âm2. Urinary WT-1 levels at 3, 6, 9, and 12-months post-KTx were significantly higher in the NODAT group compared to non-NODAT. Additionally, noteworthy positive correlations were identified between urinary WT-1 and HbA1c levels, along with significant negative correlations between urinary WT-1 and eGFR at the 3, 6, 9, and 12-months post-KTx. CONCLUSION: The increased urinary WT-1 levels from 3-months post-KTx in NODAT patients may indicate the first sign of podocyte injury, predicting a renal allograft dysfunction in these patients.

AIMS: Non-Alcoholic-Fatty-Liver-Disease (NAFLD) is the most common cause of chronic liver disease in Western countries; closely linked to obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2DM), it is an additional cardiovascular risk factor. The aim of this study is to investigate the prevalence of NAFLD at T2DM onset. METHODS: 122 newly diagnosed T2DM patients were enroled; NAFLD was diagnosed using ultrasound and fibrosis risk calculated with an FIB4-score. Intermediate and high-risk patients were referred to a hepatologist and underwent transient elastography (TE). RESULTS: At T2DM diagnosis, 25% of patients were overweight, 47% were obese; ultrasound steatosis was present in 79% of patients; the average FIB-4 score was 1.4 (0.7). The NAFLD population was characterised by higher presence of obesity (60%, p 0.06); hypertension (56%, p 0.00); AST (26.3 (23.6) UI/L; p 0.00); ALT (49.3(41.0) UI/L p 0.00); FIB-4 score (1.6 (0.8); p 0.00). Among patients referred to a hepatologist, at TE, 65% had severe steatosis, 22% significant fibrosis and 25% advanced fibrosis. CONCLUSION: This is the first proposal of a NAFLD screening model at T2DM diagnosis. The high prevalence of fibrosis found at the early stage T2DM confirms the compelling need for early management of NAFLD through cost-effective screening and long-term monitoring algorithms.

BACKGROUND: Diabetes mellitus is a significant risk factor for cardiovascular events and mortality in dialysis patients. The impact of different dialysis modalities on the risk of new onset diabetes mellitus (NODM) remains a subject of debate. Previous studies did not adequately account for critical confounding factors such as pre-dialysis glycemic status, medication use, and nutritional status, which may influence the association between dialysis modality and NODM risk. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective cohort study of 1426 non-diabetic end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients who underwent either hemodialysis (HD) or peritoneal dialysis (PD) at a single medical center. We used different statistical methods, adjusting for potential confounding factors, and accounted for competing risk of death. RESULTS: Over 12 years, 331 patients (23 %) developed NODM. After adjusting for potential confounding factors and mortality, PD patients had a significantly higher risk of NODM compared to HD patients (adjusted HR 1.52, p = 0.001). A propensity-matched cohort sensitivity analysis yielded similar results. Among patients with prediabetes, those receiving PD had a 2.93 times higher risk of developing NODM than those receiving HD (p for interaction <0.001), whereas no significant difference was observed among euglycemic patients. NODM was also associated with a 1.78 times increased risk of major cardiovascular events. CONCLUSION: Our study provides evidence that PD treatment may increase the risk of NODM in ESRD patients, particularly among those with preexisting prediabetes. These findings highlight the importance of personalized treatment approaches, and nephrologists should consider prediabetes when choosing the dialysis modality for their patients.

BACKGROUND: The diabetogenic effect of statins has been well established by clinical trials, Mendelian randomisation studies and meta-analyses. According to large clinical trials, PCSK9 inhibitors (PCSK9i) have no deleterious impact on glucose metabolism. However, few real-life studies have yet evaluated the long-term effects of these drugs on glucose homeostasis and their impact on new-onset diabetes (NODM). METHODS: We studied 218 patients treated with either alirocumab or evolocumab (70% with familial hypercholesterolemia) for at least three years (PCSK9iG). We studied the NODM rate in the nondiabetic group at baseline (168) and overall glucose metabolism control in the whole group. Incidental DM was compared with two groups. The first was a propensity score matching (PSM)-selected group (n = 168) from the database of patients attending the Reus lipid unit (Metbank, n = 745) who were not on PCSK9i (PSMG). The second was a subgroup with a similar age range (n = 563) of the Di@bet.es study (Spanish prospective study on diabetes development n = 5072) (D@G). The incidence was reported as the percentage of NODM cases per year. RESULTS: The fasting glucose (FG) level of the subjects with normoglycaemia at baseline increased from 91 (86-95.5) to 93 (87-101) mg/dL (p = 0.014). There were 14 NODM cases in the PCSK9i group (2.6%/y), all among people with prediabetes at baseline. The incidence of NODM in PSMG and D@G was 1.8%/y (p = 0.69 compared with the PCSK9iG). The incidence among the subjects with prediabetes was 5.1%/y in the PCSK9iG, 4.8%/y in the PSMG and 3.9%/y in the D@G (p = 0.922 and p = 0.682, respectively). In the multivariate analysis, only the FG level was associated with the development of NODM in the PCSK9iG (OR 1.1; 95% CI: 1.0-1.3; p = 0.027). Neither FG nor A1c levels changed significantly in patients with DM at baseline. CONCLUSION: A nonsignificant increase in NODM occurred in the PCSK9iG, particularly in patients with prediabetes, compared with the PSMG and D@G groups. Baseline FG levels were the main variable associated with the development of DM. In the subjects who had DM at baseline, glucose control did not change. The impact of PCSK9i on glucose metabolism should not be of concern when prescribing these therapies.

AIMS: The aim of the study was to estimate the effect of household relative poverty on the risk of diabetic ketoacidosis at diagnosis of children with type 1 diabetes using an international standard measurement of relative poverty. METHODS: A national population-based retrospective study was conducted. The Swedish National Diabetes Register (NDR) was linked with data from Sweden's public statistical agency (Statistics Sweden). Children who were diagnosed with new-onset type 1 diabetes in the period of 2014-2019 were common identifiers. The definition of diabetic ketoacidosis was venous pH <7.30 or a serum bicarbonate level <18 mmol/L. The exposure variable was defined according to the standard definition of the persistent at-risk-of-poverty rate used by the statistical office of the European Union (Eurostat) and several other European public statistical agencies. Univariate and multi-variable analyses were used to calculate the effect of relative poverty on the risk of diabetic ketoacidosis. RESULTS: Children from households with relative poverty had a 41% higher risk of diabetic ketoacidosis (1.41, CI 1.12-1.77, p = 0.004) and more than double the risk of severe diabetic ketoacidosis (pH <7.10) (RR 2.10, CI 1.35-3.25, p = 0.001), as compared to children from households without relative poverty. CONCLUSIONS: Relative poverty significantly increases the risk of diabetic ketoacidosis at onset of type 1 diabetes in children, even in a high-income country with publicly reimbursed health care.

OBJECTIVES: We evaluate the effect of myosteatosis on new-onset diabetes mellitus after kidney transplantation. METHODS: Consecutive patients who had renal transplant between 2006 and 2021 were reviewed, and 219 patients were finally included. Psoas muscle index was used to evaluate sarcopenia and average total psoas density (calculated by computed tomography before surgery) for myosteatosis. We used Cox proportional regression analyses in investigation of whether skeletal muscle depletion before surgery inclusive of sarcopenia and myosteatosis is a new additional predictor of new-onset diabetes mellitus. RESULTS: Median recipient age and body mass index were 45 years and 21.1 kg/m2 , respectively, and 123 patients (56%) were male. Preoperative impaired glucose tolerance was present in 58 patients (27%) and new-onset diabetes mellitus in 30 patients (14%), with median psoas muscle index of 6 cm2 /m2 and average total psoas density of 41 Hounsfield Unit. In multivariate analysis, significant risk factors were body mass index ≥25 kg/m2 (p < 0.01), impaired glucose tolerance (p < 0.01), and average total psoas density < 41.9 Hounsfield Unit (p = 0.03). New-onset diabetes mellitus had incidence rates of 3.7% without risk factors, 10% with a single risk factor, 33% with two, and 60% with three. Patients with new-onset diabetes mellitus were effectively stratified by the number of risk factors (p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: Myosteatosis could be a new risk factor used to predict new-onset diabetes mellitus.
