ABSTRACT

SUMMARY: This study assessed the effects of Acacia Senegal (AS) combined with insulin on Na+/K+-ATPase (NKA) activity and mRNA expression, serum glucose, renal function, and oxidative stress in a rat model of diabetic nephropathy (DN). Sixty rats were equally divided into six groups: normal control, normal+AS, diabetic (DM), DM+insulin, DM+AS, and DM+insulin+AS groups. Diabetes mellitus (type 1) was induced by a single injection of streptozotocin (65 mg/kg), and insulin and AS treatments were carried until rats were culled at the end of week 12. Serum glucose and creatinine levels, hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) were measured. Renal homogenate levels of NKA activity and gene expression, malondialdehyde, superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase and reduced glutathione (GSH) were evaluated as well as kidney tissue histology and ultrastructure. Diabetes caused glomerular damage and modulation of blood and tissue levels of creatinine, glucose, HbA1c, malondialdehyde, NKA activity and gene expression, SOD, catalase and GSH, which were significantly (p<0.05) treated with AS, insulin, and insulin plus AS. However, AS+insulin treatments were more effective. In conclusion, combined administration of AS with insulin to rats with DN decreased NKA activity and gene expression as well as oxidative stress, and improved glycemic state and renal structure and function.


Este estudio evaluó los efectos de Acacia senegal (AS) combinada con insulina sobre la actividad Na+/K+- ATPasa (NKA) y la expresión de ARNm, la glucosa sérica, la función renal y el estrés oxidativo en un modelo de nefropatía diabética (ND) en ratas. Sesenta ratas se dividieron equitativamente en seis grupos: control normal, normal+AS, diabética (DM), DM+insulina, DM+AS y DM+insulina+AS. La diabetes mellitus (tipo 1) se indujo mediante una única inyección de estreptozotocina (65 mg/kg), y los tratamientos con insulina y AS se llevaron a cabo hasta que las ratas fueron sacrificadas al final de la semana 12. Se midieron niveles séricos de glucosa y creatinina, hemoglobina A1c (HbA1c). Se evaluaron los niveles de homogeneizado renal de actividad NKA y expresión génica, malondialdehído, superóxido dismutasa (SOD), catalasa y glutatión reducido (GSH), así como la histología y ultraestructura del tejido renal. La diabetes causó daño glomerular y modulación de los niveles sanguíneos y tisulares de creatinina, glucosa, HbA1c, malondialdehído, actividad y expresión génica de NKA, SOD, catalasa y GSH, los cuales fueron tratados significativamente (p<0,05) con AS, insulina e insulina más AS. Sin embargo, los tratamientos con AS+insulina fueron más efectivos. En conclusión, la administración combinada de AS con insulina a ratas con DN disminuyó la actividad de NKA y la expresión genética, así como el estrés oxidativo, y mejoró el estado glucémico y la estructura y función renal.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: sintetizar a produção científica sobre a técnica da autoaplicação de insulina em adultos com diabetes Mellitus no contexto domiciliar Método: revisão integrativa realizada entre dezembro de 2019 e janeiro de 2020, a partir da busca de publicações em periódicos indexados no PubMed, CINAHL, EMBASE, SCOPUS, Web of Science, LILACS e BDENF utilizando-se os termos controlados diabetes Mellitus, self care, insulin, health education, disposable equipment, medical wastedisposal e self administration e seus correspondentes em português, combinados com o operador booleano AND. Foram incluídos artigos originais publicados entre 2009 e 2019, nos idiomas inglês, português e espanhol e que responderam à questão norteadora: qual a produção científica sobre a técnica da autoaplicação de insulina em adultos com diabetes Mellitus no contexto domiciliar nos últimos 10 anos? Resultados: compuseram a amostra final oito artigos. Predominaram estudos realizados no Brasil, por enfermeiros no contexto da atenção primária à saúde. Em relação à técnica de autoaplicação de insulina, os resultados foram agrupados em quatro eixos: pré-aplicação, técnica de preparo da insulina, aplicação e pós-aplicação. Observaram-se ações inadequadas em todos os eixos tais como: transporte, armazenamento, autoaplicação, reutilização de agulhas e descarte incorreto. Tais inadequações podem resultar em procedimentos dolorosos, prejuízos no controle glicêmico e complicações para a saúde da pessoa com diabetes Mellitus. Conclusão: os resultados evidenciaram que a realidade da autoaplicação de insulina em adultos com diabetes Mellitus no domicílio pode ser modificada a partir da educação em saúde pelo enfermeiro, bem como colaborar para o planejamento das ações estratégicas para diminuir tais problemas.(AU)


Objective: to synthesize the scientific production on the technique of self-administration of insulin in adults with diabetes Mellitus in the home context. Method: integrative review carried out between December 2019 and January 2020, based on the search for publications in journals indexed in PubMed, CINAHL, EMBASE, SCOPUS, Web of Science, LILACS and BDENF using the controlled terms diabetes Mellitus, self-care, insulin, health education, disposable equipment, medical waste disposal and self-administration and their corresponding words in Portuguese, combined with the Boolean operator AND. Original articles published between 2009 and 2019, in English, Portuguese and Spanish, were included, which answered the guiding question: what is the scientific production on the technique of self-administration of insulin in adults with diabetes Mellitus in the home context in the last 10 years? Results: the final sample comprised eight articles. Studies carried out in Brazil by nurses in the context of primary health care predominated. Regarding the insulin self-administration technique, the results were grouped into four axes: pre-administration, insulin preparation technique, administration, and post-administration. Inadequate actions were observed in all axes such as: transport, storage, self-application, reuse of needles and incorrect disposal. Such inadequacies can result in painful procedures, impaired glycemic control, and health complications for the person with diabetes Mellitus. Conclusion: the results showed that the reality of self-administration of insulin in adults with diabetes Mellitus at home can be modified based on health education by nurses, as well as collaborating in the planning of strategic actions to reduce such problems.(AU)

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: Avaliar a prevalência e o manejo da hiperglicemia de estresse em pacientes internados em uma unidade de terapia intensiva. Métodos: Estudo retrospectivo, realizado de janeiro a junho de 2018. Os dados foram obtidos a partir de 582 prontuá- rios eletrônicos, considerando os valores glicêmicos durante a hospitalização, história prévia ou não de diabetes mellitus, causas do internamento, tempo de permanência na unidade de terapia intensiva, presença de complicações durante o internamento e conduta utilizada em caso de hiperglicemia de estresse. Resulta- dos: Dos 582 pacientes internados na unidade de terapia intensi- va, 579 tiveram sua glicemia indicada nos prontuários analisados; 341 (58,9%) apresentaram hiperglicemia em algum momento da internação, sendo a hiperglicemia de estresse caracterizada em 200 pacientes (35%). A duração média de internamento desses pacientes foi de 8,39±10,9 dias, e a causa mais frequente de inter- namento foi devido a pós-operatório por diversas causas, somando 148 indivíduos (74%). Dentro os pacientes, 72 (36%) apresenta- ram alguma complicação. Além disso, 13 casos (6,5%) evoluíram para óbito. Conclusão: Estudos disponíveis sobre alvos de gli- cose em pacientes críticos das unidades de terapia intensiva apresentam difícil interpretação devido às diferenças subs- tanciais no grupo de populações e aos protocolos de gestão de pacientes utilizados em vários centros. Todavia, a prevalência da hiperglicemia de estresse encontrada nesta amostra é se- melhante à de outras casuísticas estudadas. O índice eleva- do de complicações enfatiza a necessidade de padronização nos critérios para diagnóstico e tratamento da hiperglicemia de estresse objetivando melhor prognóstico desses pacientes independentemente da causa do internamento.


Objective: To evaluate the prevalence and management of stress hyperglycemia in patients hospitalized in anintensive care unit. Methods: Retrospective study, carried out from January to June 2018. Data were obtained from 582 electronic medical records, considering glycemic values during hospitalization, existence of previous history of Diabetes Mellitus, causes of hospitalization, length of stay in the intensive care unit, presence of complications during hospitalization, and behavior used in case of stress hyper- glycemia. Results: Of the 582 patients admitted in the ICU, 579 had their glycemia indicated in the charts analyzed: 341 (58,9%) had hyperglycemia in a certain moment of hospitalization, with stress hyperglycemia being present in 200 patients (35%). The average duration of hospitalization of these patients was 8,39 ± 10,9 days, and the most frequent cause of hospitalization was postoperative for various causes, totaling 148 individuals (74%). Of the patients, 72 (36%) presented some type of complication and 13 patients (6,5%) died. Conclusion: Available studies on glucose targets in critical intensive care unit patients are difficult to be interpre- ted because of substantial differences in the study populations and of patient management protocols used at various centers. However, the prevalence of stress hyperglycemia found in this sample is similar to that of other study groups. The high com- plication rate emphasizes the need for standardization of the criteria for diagnosis and treatment of stress hyperglycemia aiming at a better prognosis of these patients regardless of the cause of hospitalization.

ABSTRACT

Um dos avanços tecnológicos no tratamento do diabetes mellitus tipo 1 (DM1) é o uso do sistema de Infusão Contínua de Insulina (SICI). Essa revisão sistemática de mapeamento teve como objetivo agrupar e descrever as evidências dos estudos relacionados ao uso do SICI em crianças e adolescentes com DM1. A estratégia de busca foi estruturada a partir da ferramenta PCO, utilizando-se uma combinação de descritores e palavras-chaves. Buscas bibliográficas foram conduzidas nas seguintes bases de dados: PubMed, Embase, CINAHL, Lilacs e PsycINFO, aplicando-se um único filtro, que foi o temporal, delimitando-se a publicação dos estudos até dezembro de 2020. Os critérios de inclusão foram: estudos primários e secundários, quantitativos e qualitativos, que tivessem como objetivo abordar o uso do SICI em crianças e adolescentes (0-18 anos) com DM1; e estudos que abordassem as perspectivas das próprias crianças e adolescentes, dos profissionais de saúde e dos familiares. Constituíram critérios de exclusão: estudos que comparassem a terapia de múltiplas injeções de insulina com a terapia por meio do SICI ou que incluíssem adultos jovens e adultos conjuntamente às crianças e adolescentes, participantes com diabetes mellitus tipo 2 (DM2) ou usuários do SICI com foco no sistema de monitorização contínua de glicose (CGM) ou pâncreas artificial. Utilizou-se o software Rayyan para exclusão das referências duplicadas e para a triagem dos títulos e resumos das referências capturadas, a qual foi conduzida por dois revisores independentes. Os dados dos estudos incluídos foram analisados com auxílio de uma ferramenta de extração adaptada e validada por pesquisadores especialistas em diabetes e com experiência no desenvolvimento de métodos de síntese de conhecimento. Os resultados foram analisados segundo a técnica de análise de conteúdo. Incluiu-se um total de 113 estudos na revisão, dentre eles, estudos originais, revisões de literatura e publicações de literatura cinzenta. Mapas de geocodificação dos estudos foram produzidos com auxílio do software ArcGis 10.5 para ilustrar o local de desenvolvimento dos estudos. A análise geográfica dos estudos possibilitou identificar maior concentração de publicações conduzidas em países desenvolvidos. Esta revisão reuniu as evidências para o uso do SICI em crianças e adolescentes com DM1, as quais foram apresentadas por meio das seguintes categorias: indicações e contraindicações para o uso do SICI; controle metabólico; redes de apoio; e benefícios e desafios do uso do SICI. As indicações para o uso do SICI superam as contraindicações. Apesar de grande parte dos estudos evidenciar melhora do controle metabólico de crianças e adolescentes em uso do SICI, a piora desse controle foi descrita em algumas pesquisas, o que sugere que esse parâmetro não deve ser analisado de forma isolada. As redes de apoio foram citadas como um dos fatores que influenciam os parâmetros de controle metabólico, conformando as subcategorias: apoio familiar e apoio da equipe de saúde e escola. Foram elencados desafios para o uso do SICI na população pediátrica, porém, vale ressaltar que parte destes desafios tem sido superada com o avanço da ciência e da tecnologia moderna. Múltiplos benefícios também foram descritos na literatura, os quais podem auxiliar profissionais de saúde na tomada de decisão para a melhor escolha e acompanhamento do tratamento do DM1 em crianças e adolescentes. Esta revisão reúne evidências sobre o uso do SICI em crianças e adolescentes com DM1 e contribui com o corpo de conhecimento relacionado à temática


One of the technological advances in type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) treatment is the use of Continuous Subcutaneous Insulin Infusion (CSII). The aim of this systematic mapping review was to group and describe the evidence from research on the use of CSII in children and adolescents with T1DM. The search strategy was structured based on the PCO tool, using a combination of descriptors and keywords. Bibliographic searches were undertaken in the following databases: PubMed, Embase, CINAHL, Lilacs and PsycINFO, applying a single time-based filter to delimit the publication of studies until December 2020. The inclusion criteria were: primary and secondary studies, quantitative and qualitative, aimed at discussing the use of CSII in children and adolescents (0-18 years) with T1DM; and studies addressing the perspectives of the actual children and adolescents, the health professionals and Family members. Exclusion criteria were: studies that compared multiple insulin injection therapy with therapy using CSII or that included young adults and adults together with the children and adolescents, participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), or with CSII users focusing on the continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) system or artificial pancreas. The software Rayyan was used to exclude duplicated references and to screen the titles and abstracts of the collected references, which was conducted by two independent reviewers. The data from the included studies were analyzed with the help of an extraction tool, adapted and validated by researchers with diabetes expertise and knowledgeable on the development of knowledge synthesis methods. The content analysis technique was used to analyze the results. In total, 113 studies were included in the review, covering original studies, literature reviews and grey literature publications. Geocoding maps of the studies were produced in ArcGis 10.5 to illustrate where the studies had been developed. Through the geographic analysis of the studies a greater concentration of publications in developed countries was identified. This review gathered evidence on the use of CSII in children and adolescents with T1DM, presented in the following categories: indications and contraindications for the use of CSII; metabolic control; support networks; and benefits and challenges of CSII use. The indications in favor of using CSII outweigh the contraindications. Although most of the studies evidence improved metabolic control in children and adolescents who use CSII, some studies described worse control, suggesting that this parameter should not be analyzed in isolation. The support networks were mentioned as one of the factors that influence the metabolic control parameters. This category includes the following subcategories: family support and support from the health team and school. Challenges were listed for the use of CSII in the pediatric population, although it should be highlighted that advanced science and modern technology have overcome some of these. Multiple benefits have also been described in the literature, which can help health professionals to make decisions in order to better choose and monitor T1DM treatment in children and adolescents. This review gathers evidence on the use of CSII in children and adolescents with T1DM and contributes to the body of knowledge on the theme

ABSTRACT

Diabetes is the most common endocrinopathy, in 2014, 8.6% of the population suffered from diabetes, and it was responsible for at least 3.7 million deaths per year. It is estimated that by that by 2050 more than 30% of the population will have this disease. In cardiovascular surgery, it is described that 5.2% of patients are undiagnosed diabetics and this rises to 10% -28% in non-cardiac surgeries. The adverse results are markedly high in those patients with poor glycemic control including an increase of more than 50% in mortality, as well as an increase in respiratory infections, surgical site infection, urinary infection, heart attack and acute kidney injury among others. During the preoperative period of patients with diabetes, it is important to review glycemic control and its current treatment, in addition to providing the patient instructions on how to adjust medications. Intraoperatively, any condition that leads to an uncontrolled increase in surgical stress must be controlled, since this in turn generates hyperglycemia. Knowledge of insulins, their pharmacology and schedules is essential to maintain blood glucose intraoperatively in normal ranges. Different practical algorithms are proposed for the correct and safe management of hyperglycemia in the perioperative period. All care should be continued in the postoperative period defining the continuity of the insulin therapies established and the postoperative care of the patient.


La diabetes es la endocrinopatía más común, en 2014, el 8,6% de la población padecía diabetes siendo responsable de 3,7 millones de muertes por año. Se estima que para el 2050 más del 30% de la población tendrá diabetes. En cirugía cardiovascular el 5,2% de los pacientes son diabéticos no diagnosticados, cifra que aumenta hasta 10%-28% en cirugías no cardíacas. Los resultados adversos son marcadamente elevados en aquellos pacientes con mal control incluyendo un aumento del 50% en la mortalidad, así mismo, incremento de infecciones respiratorias, infección del sitio quirúrgico, infección urinaria, infarto agudo de miocardio y lesión renal aguda, entre otros. Durante el preoperatorio de pacientes con diabetes, es importante revisar el control glucémico y su tratamiento, además de proporcionar al paciente instrucciones por escrito sobre cómo ajustarlo. En el intraoperatorio se debe controlar cualquier condición que lleve a un aumento del estrés quirúrgico pues este a su vez genera hiperglucemia. Es fundamental el conocimiento de las insulinas, su farmacología y esquemas para mantener glucemias en el intraoperatorio en rangos normales. Se proponen diferentes algoritmos prácticos para el correcto y seguro manejo de la hiperglucemia en el perioperatorio. La atención debe continuarse en el posoperatorio definiendo continuidad de terapias insulínicas instauradas y el adecuado cuidado del paciente.

ABSTRACT

O diabetes mellitus gestacional (DMG) é uma complicação que atinge o metabolismo da gestante, resultando em intolerância à glicose e consequente hiperglicemia, originada pela insuficiência de insulina materna. Este estudo tem como objetivo identificar os tratamentos disponíveis e mais utilizados para o DMG. Trata-se de um uma revisão de literatura, feita a partir de 22 referências, acerca dos tratamentos para o DMG. As bases de dados escolhidas foram Google Acadêmico, UpToDate, SciELO e o acervo da Universidade do Planalto Catarinense. Estudos apontam a insulina humana ­ NPH e regular ­ como a principal escolha, quando comparada aos seus análogos, apesar de ainda existirem muitas controvérsias quanto ao início do tratamento, o esquema terapêutico e os ajustes das doses. Pesquisas têm demonstrado bons resultados sobre a eficácia e a segurança dos hipoglicemiantes orais ­ gliburida e metformina ­ no tratamento de gestantes diabéticas, mas é evidente a necessidade de mais estudos para confirmar a efetividade deles e garantir um bom desenvolvimento do concepto. Concluiu-se que o controle dietético e o exercício físico são a primeira opção de tratamento para o DMG. Todavia, caso a euglicemia não seja atingida, opta-se pelo tratamento medicamentoso por meio da insulinoterapia ou hipoglicemiantes orais, o que possibilita a redução da incidência dos efeitos adversos ao binômio materno-fetal.(AU)


Gestational diabetes mellitus (DMG) is a complication that affects the pregnant woman's metabolism, resulting in glucose intolerance and consequent hyperglycemia, caused by insufficient maternal insulin. This study aims to identify the available and most used treatments for DMG. This is a literature review, based on 22 references, about treatments for Gestational Diabetes; the databases chosen were Google Scholar, UpToDate, SciELO and the collection of the Universidade do Planalto Catarinense. Studies point to human insulin ­ NPH and regular ­ as the main choice when compared to its analogues, although there are still many controversies about the beginning of treatment, therapeutic scheme and dose adjustments. Researches have shown good results on the efficacy and safety of oral hypoglycemic agents ­ glyburide and metformin ­ in the treatment of diabetic pregnant women, but it is evident the need for further studies to confirm their effectiveness and to guarantee a good development of the fetus. It was concluded that dietary control and physical exercise are the first treatment option for DGM. However, if euglycemia is not achieved, drug treatment is chosen through insulin therapy or oral hypoglycemic agents, which makes it possible to reduce the incidence of adverse effects to the maternal-fetal binomial.(AU)

ABSTRACT

Abstract Background Hyperglycemia at the time of admission is related to increased mortality and poor prognosis in patients diagnosed with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Objective We aimed to investigate whether tight glucose control during the first 24 hours of STEMI decreases the scintigraphic infarct size. Methods The study population consisted of 56 out of 134 consecutive patients hospitalized with STEMI in a coronary care unit. Twenty-eight patients were treated with continuous insulin infusion during the first 24 hours of hospitalization, while the other 28 patients were treated with subcutaneous insulin on an as-needed basis. The final infarct size was evaluated with single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) in all patients on days 4 to 10 of hospitalization. The groups were compared and then predictors of final infarct size were analyzed with univariate and multivariate linear regression analysis. A p-value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results The mean glucose level in the first 24 hours was 130 ± 20 mg/dL in the infusion group and 152 ± 31 mg/dL in the standard care group (p = 0.002), while the mean final infarct size was 20 ± 12% and 27 ± 15% (p = 0.06), respectively. The multivariate linear regression analysis demonstrated that the mean 24-hour glucose level was an independent predictor of the final infarct size (beta 0.29, p = 0.026). Conclusion Tight glucose control with continuous insulin infusion was not associated with smaller infarct size when compared to standard care in STEMI patients.

ABSTRACT

Objetivou-se avaliar a condição metabólica e estrutural das células espermáticas bovinas após congelação, com adição prévia de IGF-I e insulina no meio diluidor seminal. Os ejaculados de seis touros Nelore foram submetidos a quatro tratamentos: controle; insulina (100µUI/mL); IGF-I (150ng/mL) e insulina + IGF-I (50µUI/mL e 75ng/mL, respectivamente). Após a congelação, realizaram-se os testes de termorresistência rápida, coloração pelo corante azul de tripan e Giemsa, além da análise computadorizada da motilidade espermática, da integridade das membranas plasmática e acrossomal, e da peça intermediária por meio de sondas fluorescentes. O teste de termorresistência rápida apresentou efeito dentro do tempo de cada tratamento, mas não entre os tratamentos. Na análise computadorizada da motilidade espermática, foram observados movimento, motilidade e velocidade espermáticos; não houve efeitos dos tratamentos sobre qualquer uma dessas variáveis. Respostas iguais foram obtidas com as sondas fluorescentes e o corante azul de tripan/Giemsa. A adição de insulina e IGF-I, de forma isolada ou combinada, ao meio diluidor para congelação de sêmen não produziu efeitos sobre as condições metabólica e estrutural das células espermáticas.(AU)


This study aimed to evaluate the metabolic and structural condition of the spermatic bovine cells after the freezing, with addition, previously, of IGF-I and Insulin in the seminal thinner medium. The semen of 6 Nellore bulls were submitted to four treatments: Control, Insulin (100µUI/mL); IGF-I (150ng/mL) and Insulin + IGF-I (50µUI/mL and 75ng/mL, respectively). After freezing, rapid resistance tests, Tripan and Giemsa Blue staining, and computerized analysis of sperm motility and integrity of the plasma and acrosomal membranes and the intermediate part were performed by fluorescent probes. The term rapid resistance test had effect within the time of each treatment, but not between treatments. In the computer analysis of sperm motility, sperm movement, motility and velocity no effects of treatments were observed on any of these variables. The same results were obtained with the fluorescent probes and the Blue dye Trypan / Giemsa. The addition of Insulin and IGF-I, alone or in combination, to the semen freezing dilution medium had no effect on the metabolic and structural condition of sperm cells.(AU)

Objective: To analyze the perception of type 1 diabetes (DM 1) patients of insulin therapy. Methods: This is an epidemiological study of analysis of perception and was performed at the service for care and support of diabetes patients and their families from April to August 2018. Results: The 33 type 1 diabetes mellitus patients evaluated were predominantly female (60.6%) and the mean age was 21 years ± 9 years. Most reported having the diabetes medical ID card (78.8%). More than two thirds of the patients reported knowing when to apply the correction insulin. The capillary glycemia measurement was reported by 78.8%. Of the insulins used in the baseline regimen, Glargine and NPH were cited as the most used. Of the total patients, 97% reported self-application and 90.9% reported positioning the needle correctly on the skin. As for the application sites, 84.8% reported rotating sites. Most patients (78.8%) who applied insulin did not report discomfort during or after application, and 69.7% showed knowledge about the meaning of dystrophy. Conclusion: The continuing education service developed by the Service for Care and Support of Diabetics and their Families is effective in promoting good habits and the proper care of these patients for their disease.The education of the individual with type 1 diabetes and of his/her family, as well as follow-up by a multidisciplinary team, is essential for good disease control.

ABSTRACT

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE To present the results of metabolic control in patients with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus from a private clinic in Northern Mexico, METHODS This cross-sectional study used retrospective data obtained from electronic records from a private outpatient clinic at the end of 2018. Inclusion criteria were a diagnosis of T2DM and age ≥ 18 years. Baseline characteristics (age, gender, drug use) were reported. The achievement of glycated hemoglobin goals was established as <7%. RESULTS A total of 3820 patients were evaluated. Their mean age was 59.86 years (+/-15.01). Of the population, 46.72% were men, and 53.28% were women. Glycated hemoglobin goals were adequate in 1872 (54%) patients. There were 3247 patients (85%) treated with oral medications, of which 1948 (60%) reported glycated hemoglobin less than 7%. Insulin use was reported in 573 (15%) patients, with 115 (20%) reporting glycated hemoglobin less than 7%. The most frequently used basal insulin was glargine in 401 (70%) patients. CONCLUSIONS Our findings are clearly higher than the control rate reported by our national health surveys of 25% with glycated hemoglobin < 7%, but similar to that reported in other countries. The most commonly used therapeutic scheme was the combination of oral hypoglycemic agents. The percentage of cases that include insulin in their treatment was lower. Clinical inertia to insulin initiation and intensification has been defined as an important cause of this problem.


RESUMO OBJETIVO Apresentar os resultados do controle metabólico de pacientes com Diabetes Mellitus tipo 2 em uma clínica privada no norte do México, MÉTODOS Este estudo transversal utilizou dados retrospectivos obtidos em prontuários eletrônicos de um ambulatório privado no final de 2018. Os critérios de inclusão foram o diagnóstico de DM2 e idade ≥ 18 anos. Características basais (idade, sexo, uso de drogas) foram relatadas. A realização de metas de hemoglobina glicada foi estabelecida como <7%. RESULTADOS Um total de 3820 pacientes foram avaliados. A média de idade foi de 59,86 anos (+/- 15,01). Da população, 46,72% eram homens e 53,28% eram mulheres. Objetivos de hemoglobina glicada foram adequados em 1872 (54%) pacientes. Havia 3247 pacientes (85%) tratados com medicamentos orais relatando em 1948 (60%) menos de 7%. O uso de insulina foi relatado em 573 (15%) pacientes, com 115 (20%) relatando menos de 7%. A insulina basal mais utilizada foi a glargina, em 401 (70%) pacientes. CONCLUSÕES Nossos resultados são claramente mais altos do que a taxa de controle relatada por nossos levantamentos nacionais de saúde de 25% com hemoglobina glicada <7%, mas semelhante à relatada em outros países. O esquema terapêutico mais utilizado foi a combinação de hipoglicemiantes orais. A porcentagem de casos que incluem insulina no tratamento foi menor. A inércia clínica à iniciação e intensificação da insulina tem sido definida como uma importante causa desse problema.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Objective The insulin tolerance test (ITT) has been accepted as the gold standard test for assessing the integrity of the growth hormone (GH) - insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1) axis and the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. The goal of the test is to achieve clinical and biochemical hypoglycemia at a blood glucose level ≤ 40 mg/dL to effectively and correctly assess the HPA and GH-IGF-1 axes. In this study, the GH and cortisol responses of patients who achieved and failed to achieve biochemical hypoglycemia during an ITT were compared. Subjects and methods One hundred thirty-five patients with pituitary disorders were included in the study. Samples for blood glucose levels were obtained after clear symptoms of clinical hypoglycemia developed. The patients were enrolled in the hypoglycemic and nonhypoglycemic groups according to whether their plasma glucose level ≤ 40 mg/dL or > 40 mg/dL during an ITT, and the groups were compared in terms of their GH and cortisol responses. Results The mean age, body mass index and waist circumference of the two patient groups were found to be similar. The mean blood glucose level was significantly lower in the hypoglycemic group than in the nonhypoglycemic group (19.3 and 52.0 mg/dL, respectively). When the two groups were compared in terms of peak cortisol and GH responses, no statistically significant differences were found. Conclusion The data presented suggest that clinically symptomatic hypoglycemia is as effective as biochemically confirmed hypoglycemia during an ITT. Arch Endocrinol Metab. 2020;64(1):82-8

ABSTRACT

Glycemic variability (GV) may be linked to the development of diabetic complications by inducing inflammation, oxidative stress, and endothelial dysfunction. Flash glucose monitoring (FGM) provides a novel method of continuously monitoring interstitial glucose levels for up to 14 days. This study randomly assigned poorly controlled type 2 diabetes mellitus patients treated with metformin and multiple daily injections of insulin (n=60) to either continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) treatment or CSII in combination with liraglutide (CSII+Lira) treatment for 14 days during hospitalization. GV was assessed using a FGM system; weight and cardiometabolic biomarkers were also evaluated. The coefficient of variation was significantly reduced in the CSII+Lira group (P<0.001), while no significant change was observed in the CSII group. The changes differed significantly between the two groups in mean amplitude of glycemic excursions (P=0.004), standard deviation (P=0.006), and the percentage of time in the target range (4-10 mmol/L, P=0.005 and >10 mmol/L, P=0.028). The changes in mean of daily differences, interquartile range, and percentage of time in hypoglycemia (<3.3 mmol/L) and hyperglycemia (>13.9 mmol/L) identified by FGM showed no difference. Treatment with liraglutide increased serum adiponectin [33.5 (3.5, 47.7) pg/mL, P=0.003] and heme oxygenase-1 levels [0.4 (-0.0, 1.8) ng/mL, P=0.001] and reduced serum leptin levels [-2.8 (3.9) pg/mL, P<0.001]. Adding the glucagon-like peptide-1 analog liraglutide improved GV, weight, and some cardiometabolic risk markers. The FGM system is, therefore, shown to be a novel and useful method for glucose monitoring.

ABSTRACT

Resumen Introducción: Poco se ha evaluado el rechazo de los médicos a prescribir insulina a sus pacientes; el retraso en intensificar el tratamiento impide una atención adecuada y de calidad. Objetivo: Identificar la percepción de los médicos acerca de las barreras para iniciar la insulina en los pacientes con diabetes. Método: Por Índice Smith y análisis multivariado, en 81 médicos familiares se evaluó la relevancia y agrupación de los conceptos relacionados con las barreras para la prescripción de insulina. Resultados: 35.8 % de los médicos mostró confianza en prescribir insulina; casi la mitad calificó la intensificación del tratamiento entre moderadamente y poco importante (39.5 y 6.2 %). Las barreras se relacionaron con el médico (39.5 %), el paciente (37 %), el tratamiento con insulina (11.1 %) y la institución (6.2 %); 6.2 % de los médicos no percibió ninguna barrera. Las barreras se agruparon en cinco factores, que explicaron 62.48 % de la varianza: cultura de los pacientes, falta de habilidades, miedo a los eventos adversos, inseguridad y falta de capacitación. Conclusión: La inercia clínica no resultó de una condición clínica compleja o comorbilidades del paciente, sino de la percepción del médico y de su confianza en sus habilidades clínicas y comunicativas.


Abstract Introduction: Refusal of physicians to prescribe insulin to their patients has been scarcely evaluated; the delay in treatment intensification hinders adequate and quality care. Objective: To identify the perception of primary care physicians about barriers to initiate insulin treatment in patients with diabetes. Method: Using the Smith Index and multivariate analysis, the relevance and grouping of concepts related to barriers to insulin prescription were assessed in 81 family doctors. Results: Only 35.8% of physicians showed confidence for prescribing insulin; almost half of them rated treatment intensification between moderately and little important (39.5% and 6.2%). Barriers were related to the physician (39.5%), the patient (37%), insulin treatment (11.1%) and the institution (6.2%); 6.2 % of physicians did not perceive any barrier. The barriers were grouped in 5 factors that explained 62.48% of the variance: patient cultural level, lack of medical skills, fear of adverse events, insecurity and lack of training. Conclusion: Clinical inertia was not the result of a complex medical condition or patient comorbidities, but of doctor’s perception and confidence in his/her clinical and communication skills.

ABSTRACT

Resumo Investigar os fatores associados ao controle glicêmico de pessoas com diabetes mellitus (DM). Estudo transversal realizado com 746 pessoas com DM tipo 2 e 40 anos ou mais de idade. Elegeu-se as seguintes variáveis: socioeconômicas, dados clínicos, estilo de vida e o risco para o desenvolvimento de úlceras nos pés. A coleta dos dados ocorreu por meio de entrevista, análise do prontuário e exame clínico dos membros inferiores. Utilizou-se o modelo de regressão múltipla de Poisson para determinação das razões de prevalência (RP) brutas e ajustadas da alteração do exame de hemoglobina glicada (HbA1c), considerada como variável dependente desta pesquisa, sendo esta classificada como elevada quando o valor apresentava resultado superior a 7%. Identificou-se a elevação da HbA1c em 68,9% dos participantes e foi mais prevalente em indivíduos com idade entre 50 e 69 anos (RP = 1,38/IC95% = 1,09-1,75), os que faziam uso de insulina (RP = 1,35/IC95% = 1,24-1,47), obesos (RP = 1,14/IC95% = 1,03-1,25) e naqueles que possuíam risco de ulceração nos pés (RP = 1,14/IC95% = 1,09-1,28). Os indivíduos na faixa etária entre 50 e 69 anos, os que faziam uso de insulina, os obesos e os que possuíam risco de ulceração nos pés apresentaram maiores taxas de prevalência de alteração na hemoglobina glicada.


Abstract Investigate the factors associated with the glycemic control in people with diabetes mellitus (DM). Cross-sectional study with 746 people with type-2 DM of age 40 or older. The following variables were selected: socioeconomic, clinical data, lifestyle and the risk of developing foot ulcers. Data collection occurred through interviews, medical record analysis and clinical examination of the lower limbs. We used the Poisson multiple regression model to determine the crude and adjusted prevalence ratios (PR) of the glycemic alteration. The alteration in the glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) test was considered as a dependent variable in this study, which has been classified as high when the result was higher than 7%. The alteration in HbA1c was present in 68.9% of the participants and was more prevalent in individuals aged between 50 and 69 (PR = 1.38/IC95% = 1.09-1.75), who were taking insulin (PR = 1.35/IC95% = 1.24-1.47), obese (PR = 1.14/IC95% = 1.03-1.25) and who had foot ulceration risk (PR = 1.14/IC95% = 1.09-1.28). Individuals aged between 50 and 69; the ones who used insulin; the obese ones; and those who had a risk of foot ulceration, presented higher prevalence rates of alteration in the glycated hemoglobin.
