RESUMO
The available evidence on the impact of specific non-pharmacological interventions on glycaemic control is currently limited. Consequently, there is a need to determine which interventions could provide the most significant benefits for the metabolic health of young individuals with type 1 diabetes mellitus. The aim of this study was to identify optimal nonpharmacological interventions on glycaemic control, measured by glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c), in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes. Systematic searches were conducted in PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and SPORTDiscus from inception to July 1, 2023. Randomised clinical trials (RCT) investigating nonpharmacological interventions (e.g., physical activity, nutrition, and behavioural therapies) were included. Primary outcome was change in HbA1c levels. Secondary outcome was change in daily insulin dose requirement. Seventy-four RCT with 6,815 participants (49.43% girls) involving 20 interventions were analysed using a network meta-analysis. Most interventions showed greater efficacy than standard care. However, multicomponent exercise, which includes aerobic and strength training (n = 214, standardised mean difference [SMD] =- 0.63, 95% credible interval [95% CrI] - 1.09 to - 0.16) and nutritional supplements (n = 146, SMD =- 0.49, - 0 .92 to - 0.07) demonstrated the greatest HbA1c reductions. These interventions also led to the larger decreases in daily insulin needs (n = 119, SMD =- 0.79, 95% CrI - 1.19 to - 0.34) and (n = 57, SMD =- 0.62, 95% CrI - 1.18 to - 0.12, respectively). The current study underscores non-pharmacological options such as multicomponent exercise and nutritional supplements, showcasing their potential to significantly improve HbA1c in youth with type 1 diabetes. Although additional research to confirm their efficacy is required, these approaches could be considered as potential adjuvant therapeutic options in the management of type 1 diabetes among children and adolescents.

AIM: This Bayesian network meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials assessed the effect of adjuvant periodontal treatment in both periodontal and HbA1c outcomes in adult individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2DM). MATERIALS AND METHODS: A systematic search was done up to February 2023 comparing sub-gingival debridement (SD) in combination with local or systemic adjuvant treatment with SD alone for individuals with T2DM. The primary outcomes were changes in absolute HbA1c levels and full-mouth probing depth reported at 3- to 6-month post-treatment. RESULTS: Seventy-two eligible publications evaluating 27 adjuvant treatments were retrieved. The combination of SD and systemic antibiotic metronidazole or SD and antioxidant alpha lipoic acid provided, respectively, 1.4% (95% credible interval [CrI] 0.48; 2.20) and 2.4% (95% CrI 1.50; 3.30) more significant improvement on HbA1c levels, and 0.89 mm (95% CrI 0.23; 1.50) and 0.92 mm (95% CrI 0.02; 0.92) greater periodontal probing depth reductions. Other adjuvant treatments provided added benefit to the periodontal outcomes without discernible effects on HbA1c. CONCLUSIONS: Adjuvant use of metronidazole or alpha lipoic acid was the best adjunct option to provide clinically meaningful HbA1c levels and probing depth reductions. However, no strong recommendation can be drawn due to the scarcity of studies for each adjuvant treatment and the low certainty of the resultant evidence.

AIM: To examine the preliminary effects of a culturally tailored, family-supported, community-based diabetes self management education and support (DSMES) programme for Ethiopian people with type 2 diabetes on glycosylated haemoglobulin (HbA1c ), blood pressure, body mass index and lipid profiles. METHODS: A two-arm pilot randomised controlled trial (RCT) was conducted involving 76 participant-caregiver dyads from Western Ethiopia, which were randomly allocated to the intervention arm to receive 12 h of DSMES intervention guided by social cognitive theory on top of usual care, or to the control group, which received usual care. While HbA1c was a primary outcome, the blood pressure, body mass index and lipid profiles were secondary outcomes. Primary outcome was the change in HbA1c between baseline and 2-month follow-up between the groups. Generalised estimating equations was used to test the preliminary effect of the DSMES programme on the outcomes at baseline, post-intervention and at 2-month follow-up for secondary outcomes. Cohen's d was used to estimate the between-group effect sizes of the intervention. RESULTS: The DSMES produced significant improvement in HbA1c with large effect size (ß = -1.667, p < 0.001, d = -0.81) and triglycerides with medium effect size (d = -0.50). HbA1c in the intervention group was decreased by 12 mmol/mol (1.1%). Although nonsignificant, the DSMES also had small to moderate effects (d = -0.123 to 0.34) on blood pressure, body mass index, total cholesterol, low-density and high-density lipoproteins when compared with usual care. CONCLUSION: A culturally tailored, social cognitive theory-guided, family-supported, community-based DSME programme could have a benefit on HbA1c and triglycerides. A full RCT is warranted to test the effectiveness of the DSMES programme.

AIMS: To determine whether a net decline in glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c ) from early to late pregnancy is associated with lower risk of adverse perinatal outcomes at delivery among women with pregestational diabetes. METHODS: A retrospective analysis from 2012 to 2016 at a tertiary care centre. The exposure was the net change in HbA1c from early (<20 weeks gestation) to late pregnancy (≥20 weeks gestation). Primary outcomes were large for gestational age (LGA) and neonatal hypoglycaemia. The association between outcomes per 6 mmol/mol (0.5%) absolute decrease in HbA1c was evaluated using modified Poisson regression, and adjusted for age, body mass index, White Class, early HbA1c and haemoglobin and gestational age at HbA1c measurement and delivery. RESULTS: Among 347 women with pregestational diabetes, HbA1c was assessed in early (9 weeks [IQR 7,13]) and late pregnancy (31 weeks [IQR 29,34]). Mean HbA1c decreased from early (59 mmol/mol [7.5%]) to late (47 mmol/mol [6.5%]) pregnancy. Each 6 mmol/mol (0.5%) absolute decrease in HbA1c was associated with a 12% reduced risk of LGA infant (30%, aRR:0.88; 95% CI:0.81,0.95), and a 7% reduced risk of neonatal hypoglycaemia (35%, aRR:0.93; 95% CI:0.87,0.99). Preterm birth (36%, aRR:0.93; 95% CI:0.89,0.98) and neonatal intensive care unit admission (55%, aRR:0.95; 95% CI:0.91,0.98) decreased with a net decline in HbA1c , but not caesarean delivery, pre-eclampsia, shoulder dystocia and respiratory distress syndrome. CONCLUSIONS: Women with pregestational diabetes with a reduction in HbA1c may have fewer infants born LGA or with neonatal hypoglycaemia. Repeated assessment of HbA1c may provide an additional measure of glycaemic control.

BACKGROUND: Glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) is considered reliable for diagnosing and monitoring diabetes mellitus (DM). It also indicates cardiovascular complications related to DM. However, only a few studies have been conducted on this topic. METHODS: We conducted a cross-sectional study to investigate the association between newly diagnosed hypertension and HbA1c among non-diabetic Sudanese adults. The sociodemographic characteristics of the participants in the sample were gathered using a questionnaire, and HbA1c was measured using an Ichroma machine. RESULTS: Three hundred and eighty-four healthy participants were enrolled in this study. The median (interquartile range [IQR]) age was 56.0 (14.0) years, and 72.1% of the participants were female. The median (IQR) body mass index (BMI) was 31.2 (8.7) kg/m2. One hundred and fifteen (29.9%) participants presented newly diagnosed hypertension. The results of the multivariate analysis showed that age (adjusted odd ratio [AOR] = 1.03; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.01â1.05); BMI (AOR = 1.09; 95% CI = 1.05â1.14); HbA1c levels (AOR = 2.18; 95% CI = 1.29â3.67) was positively associated with newly diagnosed hypertension. For an HbA1c level of 5.0% or more, the sensitivity and specificity of newly diagnosed hypertension were 91.3% and 28.2%, respectively (area under the curve = 0.61; 95% CI = 0.55-0.67; P Ë 0.001). Participants who presented HbA1c levels of 5.0% or more were found to be at higher risk for newly diagnosed hypertension (AOR = 2.53; 95% CI = 1.14â5.61). CONCLUSION: The results of this study indicated a high prevalence of newly diagnosed hypertension, and HbA1c levels were positively associated with newly diagnosed hypertension.

AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the effectiveness of a nurse-led online educational programme based on patients with diabetes mellitus treated with initial basal insulin therapy. BACKGROUND: Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) need to be treated with insulin to control hyperglycaemia and reduce the risk of diabetic complications when oral hypoglycaemic drugs are not effective or contraindicated. Current practices emphasise the leading role of nurses in patients treated with initial basal insulin therapy after discharge. The introduction of nurse-led online education within this area is a relatively new programme. DESIGN: This study was a quasi-experimental, nonequivalent, two-group, comparison group design. METHODS: The study selected 800 patients with T2DM hospitalised in the Department of Endocrinology at a Chinese hospital from July 2018 to June 2020 who were initially treated with insulin. According to the time sequence, 400 patients from July 2018 to June 2019 were divided into the control group and 400 patients from July 2019 to June 2020 into the intervention group. The control group received routine health education and doctor-led follow-up based on routine health education. The intervention group received systematic health education and online insulin injection activities led by nurses. The effects were evaluated after 3 and 6 months of intervention. The TREND checklist was followed to ensure rigour in the study. RESULTS: In total, 339 patients were enrolled in the intervention group and 333 patients within the control group. According to the analysis, 3 months after the intervention, the compliance rate of fasting blood glucose (FBG) (rate difference: 0.078, 95% CI: 0.006-1.150, p < .05) and HbA1c (%) (rate difference: 0.070, 95% CI: 0.001-0.137, p < .05) between the intervention and control groups were statistically significant; 6 months after the intervention, the compliance rate of FBG (rate difference: 0.077, 95% CI: 0.007-0.14, p < .05) and HbA1c (%) (rate difference: 0.106, 95% CI: 0.324-0.180, p < .01) between the intervention and the control groups were statistically significant. The total score of the 'My Opinion on Insulin' scale in the intervention group was (80.18 ± 6.68), and in the control group was (71.15 ± 8.17), there was a significant difference in the scale between the two groups (mean difference: 9.03, 95% CI: 7.900-10.160, p < .01). Through a multivariable regression model, in order to correct the important baseline characteristics, the daily insulin dosage, and the total score of the 'My Opinion on Insulin' scale after 6 months of intervention were independent risk factors for the two intervention methods in diabetic patients treated with initial basal insulin therapy (p < .05). CONCLUSIONS: A nurse-led online programme was feasible and effective for patients with diabetes mellitus treated with initial basal insulin therapy. This programme could effectively be used to reduce the patient's daily insulin dose, as well as improve the patients' compliance using insulin therapy. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE: Nurse-led online education has a role in implementing a safe, standardised, and sustained approach to patients with diabetes mellitus treated with initial basal insulin therapy during follow-up after discharge.

BACKGROUND: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder that is increasing globally. It is associated with chronic complications that are more common among patients with poor glycaemic control. Glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c ) is the gold standard for monitoring glycaemic control. Measurements of HbA1c are relatively expensive and not available in some remote areas of developing countries. METHODS: We conducted a cross-sectional study to evaluate the agreement between the calculated and measured HbA1c levels. The equation to compute the calculated HbA1c also incorporated the fasting blood glucose (FBG) level and was as follows: HbA1c = 2.6 + 0.03 × FBG (mg/dl). RESULT: We enrolled 290 patients with type 2 DM in this study. Of these, 204 (70.3%) were females and the mean (SD) age was 54.9 (12.8) years. The mean (SD) diabetes duration was 6.8 (5.5) years. There were 211 (72.8%) patients using oral hypoglycaemic agents, 62 (21.4%) were using insulin and 17 (5.9%) were using both insulin and oral hypoglycaemic agents. There was a borderline difference between the mean (SD) calculated and measured HbA1c levels (p = 0.054). There was a significant correlation between the calculated and measured HbA1c (r = 0.595, p < 0.001). However, there was no agreement between the calculated and measured HbA1c . The bias ±SD (limits of agreement) for calculated versus measured HbA1c was -1.008 ± 2.02% (-5.05, 2.032). CONCLUSION: Despite the presence of a significant correlation between the calculated and measured HbA1c , the calculated level has shown an unacceptable agreement with the measured HbA1c .

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the prevalence of autoimmune thyroid disease in children with diabetes. METHODS: The descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted from January to December 2019 at the Children Hospital and the Institute of Child Health, Multan, Pakistan, and comprised paediatric type 1 diabetes mellitus patients of both genders. Blood samples were obtained for detailed testing of thyroid functions tests. Data was analysed using SPSS 20. RESULTS: Of the 161 paediatric subjects, 83(51.6%) were boys. The overall mean age was 9.7±4.3 years. Thyroid peroxidase antibody was positive in 34(21.1%) patients and thyroglobulin antibody in 27(16.7%). Both antibodies were positive in 17(10.5%) patients. Six (3.7%) patients had evidence of subclinical hypothyroidism, 8(4.9%) had overt hypothyroidism and 1(0.62%) had hyperthyroidism. CONCLUSIONS: The prevalence of autoimmune thyroid disease among children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus was 21%, with hypothyroidism being more prevalent compared to hyperthyroidism.

Type 1 diabetes is a lifelong condition which affects all age ranges, for reasons unknown, and the UK has one of the highest incidences of this complex condition in the world. Type 1 diabetes is caused by autoimmune damage to the insulin-producing ß-cells found in the pancreatic islet cells, leading to severe insulin deficiency. People with diabetes need to achieve a target glyosylated haemoglobin level to avoid macro- and microvascular complications, but there is the associated risk of hypoglycaemic events. These can vary in severity and consequences but will likely always cause worry for the person living with diabetes. There are many risk factors and reasons to be explored when looking at hypoglycaemia. This case study explores the nursing interventions that can be safely worked through and prioritised, within the community setting, to allow people with diabetes to be safe from severe hypoglycaemia, thus improving their quality of life and safety, as well as reducing costs for the NHS.

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: This randomised controlled trial was performed in India and the UK in people with prediabetes to study whether mobile phone short message service (SMS) text messages can be used to motivate and educate people to follow lifestyle modifications, to prevent type 2 diabetes. METHODS: The study was performed in people with prediabetes (n = 2062; control: n = 1031; intervention: n = 1031) defined by HbA1c ≥42 and ≤47 mmol/mol (≥6.0% and ≤6.4%). Participants were recruited from public and private sector organisations in India (men and women aged 35-55 years) and by the National Health Service (NHS) Health Checks programme in the UK (aged 40-74 years without pre-existing diabetes, cardiovascular disease or kidney disease). Allocation to the study groups was performed using a computer-generated sequence (1:1) in India and by stratified randomisation in permuted blocks in the UK. Investigators in both countries remained blinded throughout the study period. All participants received advice on a healthy lifestyle at baseline. The intervention group in addition received supportive text messages using mobile phone SMS messages 2-3 times per week. Participants were assessed at baseline and at 6, 12 and 24 months. The primary outcome was conversion to type 2 diabetes and secondary outcomes included anthropometry, biochemistry, dietary and physical activity changes, blood pressure and quality of life. RESULTS: At the 2 year follow-up (n = 2062; control: n = 1031; intervention: n = 1031), in the intention-to-treat population the HR for development of type 2 diabetes calculated using a discrete-time proportional hazards model was 0.89 (95% CI 0.74, 1.07; p = 0.22). There were no significant differences in the secondary outcomes. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION: This trial in two countries with varied ethnic and cultural backgrounds showed no significant reduction in the progression to diabetes in 2 years by lifestyle modification using SMS messaging. TRIAL REGISTRATION: The primary study was registered on www.ClinicalTrials.gov (India, NCT01570946; UK, NCT01795833). FUNDING: The study was funded jointly by the Indian Council for Medical Research and the UK Medical Research Council.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus has been linked to structural brain abnormalities, but evidence of the association among prediabetes and structural brain abnormalities has not been systematically evaluated. Comprehensive searching strategies and relevant studies were systematically retrieved from PubMed, Embase, Medline and web of science. Twelve articles were included overall. Stratified analyses and regression analyses were performed. A total of 104 468 individuals were included. The risk of infarct was associated with continuous glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c ) [adjusted odds ratio (OR) 1.19 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.05-1.34)], or prediabetes [adjusted OR 1.13 (95% CI: 1.00-1.27)]. The corresponding ORs associated with white matter hyperintensities were 1.08 (95%CI: 1.04-1.13) for prediabetes, and 1.10 (95%CI: 1.08-1.12) for HbA1c . The association was significant between the decreased risk of brain volume with continuous HbA1c (the combined OR 0.92, 95% CI: 0.87-0.98). Grey matter volume and white matter volume were inversely associated with prediabetes [weighted mean deviation (WMD), -9.65 (95%CI: -15.25 to -4.04) vs WMD, -9.25 (95%CI: -15.03 to -3.47)]. There were no significant association among cerebral microbleeds, hippocampal volume, continuous total brain volume, and prediabetes. Our findings demonstrated that (a) both prediabetes and continuous HbA1c were significantly associated with increasing risk of infarct or white matter hyperintensities; (b) continuous HbA1c was associated with a decreased risk of brain volume; (c) prediabetes was inversely associated with grey matter volume and white matter volume. To confirm these findings, further studies on early diabetes onset and structural brain abnormalities are needed.

OBJECTIVES: The aim of the present cross-sectional study was to investigate the association between serum glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) levels and periodontal status in patients with periodontitis (CP) and periodontally healthy controls. Furthermore, the objectives were to determine if the periodontitis influenced the serum HbA1c levels. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 93 patients with CP and 95 periodontally healthy subjects were enrolled in the present study using a cross-sectional design. At baseline, patients were examined and characterized on a regular basis for blood serum parameters and non-fasting blood samples levels. In all patients, a full periodontal examination was performed and clinical attachment loss (CAL) was the primary outcome variable chosen. The spearman correlation, a stepwise multivariable linear regression, and Jonckheere-Terpstra tests were applied in order to assess the relationship between HbA1c levels and periodontitis. RESULTS: Patients in the CP group presented a significantly higher median serum level of HbA1c [40.9 (31.2; 45.6) mmol/mol)] compared to patients in the healthy control group [35.3 (29.6; 38.6) mmol/mol)] (p < 0.001). HbA1c levels were negatively correlated with the number of teeth and positively correlated with C-reactive protein levels and all periodontal parameters (p < 0.001). Moreover, there was a significant decrease in the number of teeth when HbA1c levels increased (P-trend < 0.001), while there was a significant increase in periodontal parameters (CAL, p = 0.002); PD, p = 0.008; BOP, p < 0.001) when levels of HbA1c increased. CONCLUSIONS: Patients with CP and undiagnosed diabetes presented significantly higher serum levels of HbA1c compared to periodontally healthy controls. Moreover, the presence of periodontitis was positively correlated with serum HbA1c levels before diabetes onset. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: HbA1c levels were positively correlated with the severity of periodontitis before diabetes onset.

INTRODUCTION: Despite many challenges, the benefit of bariatric surgery in super-obese population remains irrefutable with significant improvement in metabolic syndrome and quality of life. There are currently no published data from Malaysia on this topic. OBJECTIVE AND METHODOLOGY: A single-centre retrospective study aimed at analysing the outcome of laparoscopic bariatric surgery on super-obese Malaysians with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) at 12 months following surgery. Demographic details, glycaemic control and weight-loss parameters were analysed.P < 0.01 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS: Of the 33 patients, 55% were women and 45% were men with a mean age of 40 ± 11 years and body mass index (BMI) of 59.3 ± 9.0 kg/m2. Majority of patients were of Malay ethnicity (82%). Malaysian-Indians and Malaysian-Chinese each accounted for 9% of total case volume. The three types of laparoscopic bariatric surgery recorded in this study were sleeve gastrectomy (82%), Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (9%) and mini-gastric bypass (9%) with operative time of 103.5 ± 31.1, 135.8 ± 32.6 and 116.2 ± 32.3 min, respectively. Percentage total body weight loss was 33.11% ± 9.44% at 12 months following surgery (P < 0.01). BMI change and percentage excess BMI loss showed similar improvement. Glycosylated haemoglobin and fasting blood sugar decreased from pre-operative values of 7.0% ± 1.0% and 7.0 ± 0.9 mmol/L to 5.6% ± 0.4% and 5.0 ± 0.6 mmol/L at 12 months (P < 0.01). Remission of T2DM was noted in 93% of patients. There was no correlation between weight loss and improvement in glycaemic status. CONCLUSION: There are significant weight loss and improvement of glycaemic control at 12 months post-laparoscopic bariatric surgery among super-obese Malaysians.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) has a detrimental impact on the myocardium with left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction. Obesity is a risk factor of type 2 diabetes. To understand the relationships between HbA1c, body mass index (BMI) and LV diastolic dysfunction, we performed this interaction analysis in patients with type 2 diabetes. METHODS: Total 925 type 2 diabetes patients were selected from the patients who were diagnosed and treated at the First Affiliated Hospital of Shenzhen University. Patients' BMI levels were defined as normal (BMI < 24 kg/m2) and overweight /obese (BMI ≥ 24 kg/m2). Patients' HbA1c levels were grouped as HbA1c ≥ 9%ã7% ≤ HbA1c < 9% and HbA1c < 7%. Logistic regression, stratified, interaction analysis, multivariate Cox regression and curve fitting analysis were performed to investigate the correlations and interactions between HbA1c and BMI with LV diastolic dysfunction. RESULTS: The BMI levels were significantly associated with LV diastolic dysfunction in the patients with type 2 diabetes [adjusted model: 1.12 (1.05, 1.20), P = 0.001]. While HbA1c levels had association with LV diastolic dysfunction only in normal BMI group patients [adjusted model: 1.14 (1.01, 1.30), P = 0.0394] and curve correlation was observed. There was a significant interaction between BMI and HbA1c to affect LV diastolic dysfunction (P = 0.0335). Cox regression model analysis showed that the risk of LV diastolic dysfunction was a U type correlation with HbA1c levels in the normal weight group and the turning point was HbA1c at 10%. HbA1c level was not found to have a significant association with LV diastolic dysfunction in overweight/obese group. CONCLUSIONS: In patients with type 2 diabetes, correlation between LV diastolic dysfunction and HbA1c was interactively affected by BMI. Glycemic control is beneficial to the heart function in normal body weight patients. For overweight/obese patients, the risk of LV diastolic dysfunction was not determined by the HbA1c level, indicating it may be affected by other confounding factors.

BACKGROUND: Dietary oleic acid may prevent pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) by reducing hyperinsulinaemia which can otherwise promote DNA damage and tumour growth. Results from previous epidemiological studies investigating oleic acid are inconsistent. This study aims to clarify the relationship between dietary oleic acid intake and the risk of developing PDA using nutritional information from food diaries plus published serum biomarker data from HbA1c. METHODS: 23,658 participants, aged 40-74 years, were recruited into EPIC-Norfolk and completed 7-day food diaries which recorded; foods, brands and portion sizes to calculate nutrient intakes. Serum HbA1c was measured at recruitment in 11,147 participants (48.7% of cohort). Hazard ratios (HRs) for quintiles of dietary oleic acid intake and serum HbA1c were estimated using Cox regression. Additional analyses were made according to whether body mass index (BMI) was greater or less than 25â¯kg/m2 as this influences hyperinsulinaemia. RESULTS: 88 participants (55% women) developed PDA after a mean follow-up of 8.4 years (SDâ¯=â¯3.9) (mean age at diagnosisâ¯=â¯72.6 years, SDâ¯=â¯8.8). A decreased risk of PDA was associated with increased dietary oleic acid intake (highest vs lowest quintile, HRâ¯=â¯0.29, 95% CIâ¯=â¯0.10-0.81, P trend across quintilesâ¯=â¯0.011), with statistical significance maintained when BMI>25â¯kg/m2 but not if BMI<25â¯kg/m2. An elevated serum HbA1c was associated with increased risk of disease (highest vs lowest quintiles, HRâ¯=â¯6.32, 95% CIâ¯=â¯1.38-28.89, P for trendâ¯=â¯0.004). CONCLUSIONS: The data supports a protective role of oleic acid against development of PDA in those with higher BMIs possibly through influencing hyperinsulinaemia. Oleic acid intake should be accurately measured in future aetiological studies.

AIM: To evaluate the impact of two non-surgical periodontal treatment modalities on metabolic and periodontal clinical parameters in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and poor glycaemic control and chronic periodontitis. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A randomized controlled clinical trial was conducted. Ninety-three T2DM subjects with glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) > 7% were randomly assigned to one of two groups receiving scaling with root planing in multiple sessions quadrant-by-quadrant (Q by Q) or within 24 hr (one stage). Periodontal parameters, HbA1c, glycaemia blood levels (FPG) and C-reactive protein (CRP) values were assessed at baseline and at 3 and 6 months post-therapy. RESULTS: At 6 months, HbA1c had decreased by 0.48% in the Q by Q group and by 0.18% in the one-stage group (p = 0.455). After therapy, subjects with an initial HbA1c < 9% showed an increase of 0.31% (p = 0.145), compared with a decrease of 0.88% (p = 0.006) in those with an initial HbA1c ≥ 9%. Periodontal parameters improved significantly (p < 0.0001) post-therapy, with similar results for both treatment modalities. CONCLUSION: Periodontal therapy had the greatest impact on HbA1c reduction on patients with an HbA1c > 9% regardless of treatment modality. Both modalities resulted in significant improvements in periodontal parameters.

BACKGROUND: Periodontitis and diabetes are highly prevalent conditions whose association has long been recognized. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of non-surgical periodontal treatment on serum HbA1c (haemoglobin A1c or glycated haemoglobin) levels in patients with type 2 diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: This was a 6-month, single-masked, randomized clinical trial based on 90 patients (HbA1c: 7.7% (61 mmol/mol) ± 1.13%) who were randomly assigned to either the treatment group (oral hygiene instructions + scaling and root planing using ultrasound and Gracey curettes) or the control group (oral hygiene instructions + supragingival removal of plaque and calculus using ultrasound). Pocket depth, gingival index, and plaque index were assessed at baseline and after 3 and 6 months together with determinations of fasting plasma glucose, HbA1c, and bacterial counts. RESULTS: Treatment significantly improved the periodontal and metabolic parameters (p < .05), whereas in the control group no improvement was observed. These results were consistent with the bacteriological results in most but not all cases. CONCLUSION: Non-surgical periodontal treatment resulted in a better glycaemic status of type 2 diabetes patients and demonstrated the importance of oral health in their general health.

BACKGROUND: Means to reduce future risk for cardiovascular disease in subjects with type 2 diabetes are urgently needed. METHODS: Thirty-two patients with type 2 diabetes (age 59 ± 8 years) followed a Paleolithic diet for 12 weeks. Participants were randomized to either standard care exercise recommendations (PD) or 1-h supervised exercise sessions (aerobic exercise and resistance training) three times per week (PD-EX). RESULTS: For the within group analyses, fat mass decreased by 5.7 kg (IQR: -6.6, -4.1; p < 0.001) in the PD group and by 6.7 kg (-8.2, -5.3; p < 0.001) in the PD-EX group. Insulin sensitivity (HOMA-IR) improved by 45% in the PD (p < 0.001) and PD-EX (p < 0.001) groups. HbA1c decreased by 0.9% (-1.2, -0.6; p < 0.001) in the PD group and 1.1% (-1.7, -0.7; p < 0.01) in the PD-EX group. Leptin decreased by 62% (p < 0.001) in the PD group and 42% (p < 0.001) in the PD-EX group. Maximum oxygen uptake increased by 0.2 L/min (0.0, 0.3) in the PD-EX group, and remained unchanged in the PD group (p < 0.01 for the difference between intervention groups). Male participants decreased lean mass by 2.6 kg (-3.6, -1.3) in the PD group and by 1.2 kg (-1.3, 1.0) in the PD-EX group (p < 0.05 for the difference between intervention groups). CONCLUSIONS: A Paleolithic diet improves fat mass and metabolic balance including insulin sensitivity, glycemic control, and leptin in subjects with type 2 diabetes. Supervised exercise training may not enhance the effects on these outcomes, but preserves lean mass in men and increases cardiovascular fitness. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: It is unknown whether lifestyle change is effective in people with type 2 diabetes with inadequate glucose control. The aim of this study was to asses, in a group of people with type 2 diabetes, the impact of baseline values of glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) on the effects of an intensive lifestyle intervention on metabolic, clinical and strength parameters. METHODS AND RESULTS: 222 people with type 2 diabetes with mean ± standard deviation baseline HBA1c of 7.50% ± 1.27 (range 5.1-12.7%), were enrolled in a 3-month structured multidisciplinary lifestyle intervention. Anthropometric, biochemical, clinical and fitness measurements were collected at baseline, at the end of the lifestyle intervention program and at two-year follow-up visit. Significant improvements in glycometabolic control (HbA1c: p ≤ 0.0001); anthropometric parameters (BMI p ≤ 0.0001; waist circumference: p ≤ 0.0001); and systemic blood pressure (p ≤ 0.0001) were observed both at the end of the three month intensive lifestyle program and at the two-year follow up visit. In addition, defined daily doses of hypoglycaemic treatment significantly decreased (p = 0.001). Fitness measures exhibited significant increments in the whole sample at the end of the intensive intervention program (p ≤ 0.0001). When patients were divided into tertiles considering the baseline value of HbA1c, the most marked improvements in HbA1c, blood glucose and triglycerides were observed in the group with inadequate glucose control (Hba1c ≥ 7.71%), both at the three-month and two-year follow-ups. CONCLUSION: These results demonstrate that an intensive lifestyle intervention should be recommended for people with type 2 diabetes, particularly those with the most inadequate glycaemic control. REGISTRATION NUMBER: CURIAMO trial was registered in the Australian New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry, (ACTRN12611000255987).

BACKGROUND: Nutritional modulation remains central to the management of metabolic syndrome. Intervention with cinnamon in individuals with metabolic syndrome remains sparsely researched. METHODS: We investigated the effect of oral cinnamon consumption on body composition and metabolic parameters of Asian Indians with metabolic syndrome. In this 16-week double blind randomized control trial, 116 individuals with metabolic syndrome were randomized to two dietary intervention groups, cinnamon [6 capsules (3 g) daily] or wheat flour [6 capsules (2.5 g) daily]. Body composition, blood pressure and metabolic parameters were assessed. RESULTS: Significantly greater decrease [difference between means, (95% CI)] in fasting blood glucose (mmol/L) [0.3 (0.2, 0.5) p = 0.001], glycosylated haemoglobin (mmol/mol) [2.6 (0.4, 4.9) p = 0.023], waist circumference (cm) [4.8 (1.9, 7.7) p = 0.002] and body mass index (kg/m2 ) [1.3 (0.9, 1.5) p = 0.001] was observed in the cinnamon group compared to placebo group. Other parameters which showed significantly greater improvement were: waist-hip ratio, blood pressure, serum total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, serum triglycerides, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. Prevalence of defined metabolic syndrome was significantly reduced in the intervention group (34.5%) vs. the placebo group (5.2%). CONCLUSION: A single supplement intervention with 3 g cinnamon for 16 weeks resulted in significant improvements in all components of metabolic syndrome in a sample of Asian Indians in north India. TRIAL REGISTRATION: The clinical trial was retrospectively registered (after the recruitment of the participants) in ClinicalTrial.gov under the identification number: NCT02455778 on 25th May 2015.
