Association of vitamin D receptor gene polymorphisms with type 2 diabetes mellitus in Taif population: a case-control study

Abstract Several reasons may underlie the dramatic increase in type2 diabetes mellitus. One of these reasons is the genetic basis and variations. Vitamin D receptor polymorphisms are associated with different diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and diabetes. The aim of this study is to investigate the possible association of two identified mutations ApaI (rs7975232) and TaqI (rs731236). Eighty-nine healthy individuals and Fifty-six Type 2 Diabetic (T2D) patients were investigated using RFLP technique for genotyping and haplotyping as well. The distribution of Apal genotypes was not statistically significant among the control (P=0.65) as well as for diabetic patients (P=0.58). For Taql allele frequencies of T allele was 0.61 where of G allele was 0.39. The frequency distribution of Taql genotypes was not statistically significant among the control (P=0.26) as well as diabetic patients (P=0.17). Relative risk of the allele T of Apa1 gene is 1.28 and the odds ratio of the same allele is 1.53, while both estimates were 1.0 of the allele G. Similarly, with the Taq1 gene the relative risk and the odds ratio values for the allele T are 1.09 and 1.27 respectively and both estimates of the allele C were 0.86 for the relative risk and 0.79 for the odds ratio. The pairwise linkage disequilibrium between the two SNPs Taq1/apa1 was statistically significant in control group (D = 0.218, D' = 0.925 and P value 0.001) and similar data in diabetic groups (D = 0.2, D' = 0.875 and P value 0.001). These data suggest that the T allele of both genes Apa1 and Taq1 is associated with the increased risk of type 2 diabetes. We think that we need a larger number of volunteers to reach a more accurate conclusion.

Resumo Várias razões podem estar subjacentes ao aumento dramático da diabetes mellitus tipo 2. Um desses motivos é a base genética e variações. Os polimorfismos do receptor da vitamina D estão associados a diferentes doenças, como artrite reumatoide e diabetes. O objetivo deste estudo é investigar a possível associação de duas mutações identificadas ApaI (rs7975232) e TaqI (rs731236). Oitenta e nove indivíduos saudáveis e 56 pacientes com diabetes tipo 2 (T2D) foram investigados usando a técnica RFLP para genotipagem e haplotipagem também. A distribuição dos genótipos Apal não foi estatisticamente significativa entre o controle (P = 0,65), bem como para os pacientes diabéticos (P = 0,58). Para as frequências do alelo Taql, o alelo T foi de 0,61, onde o alelo G foi de 0,39. A distribuição de frequência dos genótipos Taql não foi estatisticamente significativa entre o controle (P = 0,26), bem como os pacientes diabéticos (P = 0,17). O risco relativo do alelo T do gene Apa1 é 1,28 e a razão de chances do mesmo alelo é 1,53, enquanto ambas as estimativas foram 1,0 do alelo G. Da mesma forma, com o gene Taq1, os valores de risco relativo e razão de chances para o alelo T são 1,09 e 1,27, respectivamente, e ambas as estimativas do alelo C foram de 0,86 para o risco relativo e 0,79 para o odds ratio. O desequilíbrio de ligação par a par entre os dois SNPs Taq1 / apa1 foi estatisticamente significativo no grupo de controle (D = 0,218, D' = 0,925 e valor P 0,001) e dados semelhantes em grupos diabéticos (D = 0,2, D' = 0,875 e valor P 0,001). Esses dados sugerem que o alelo T de ambos os genes Apa1 e Taq1 está associado ao aumento do risco de diabetes tipo 2. Achamos que precisamos de um número maior de voluntários para chegar a uma conclusão mais precisa.

Resumen Introducción : Es fundamental poner en práctica ac ciones preventivas y de diagnóstico poblacional precoz para detectar a las personas en riesgo de desarrollar Diabetes tipo 2 (DT2). El objetivo del trabajo fue evaluar el desempeño del score FINDRISC como método de cri bado para detectar prediabetes y DT2 sin diagnostico en trabajadores municipales. Métodos : Estudio epidemiológico, descriptivo de corte transversal desde 10/21 al 3/22. Ingresaron voluntarios mayores a 18 años sin diagnóstico previo de DT2, se excluyó quienes padecían una enfermedad aguda, emba razadas o que realizaban tratamiento con medicamentos que modifiquen la glucemia. Los participantes comple taron el FINDRISC y realizaron una Prueba Oral de Tole rancia a la Glucosa (POTG). El desempeño se determinó mediante el cálculo de la sensibilidad (S), especificidad (E), y el área bajo la curva (AUC-ROC). Se utilizó un índice de Youden para definir el punto de corte óptimo. Resultados : Ingresaron 148 personas, entre 18-67 años, con media de edad 42.9 ± 11.8 años, el 68.9% de sexo masculino. La frecuencia de DT2 sin diagnóstico fue del 3.3% (n = 5) y de prediabetes del 12.2% (n = 18). El promedio de puntos de FINDRISC fue de 10.0 ± 4.8. El punto de corte optimo fue ≥ 13 (S = 65.2% y E = 74.4%) y el AUC-ROC 0.76 (IC95%: 0.66-0.86). Conclusión : El FINDRISC demostró ser un método eficaz para identificar personas con DT2 y prediabetes con punto de corte 13 en la población, lugar y periodo de estudio.

Abstract Introduction : It is fundamental to put into practice preventive and early population diagnosis actions to detect people at risk for developing Type 2 diabetes (T2D). The aim of this study was to evaluate the FINDRISC score performance as screening method to detect prediabetes and unknown T2D in municipal workers. Methods : descriptive epidemiological and cross-sectional study from 10/21 to 03/22. People suffering from a severe illness, pregnant or were already receiv ing drugs that modify blood glucose, were excluded. Participants completed the FINDRISC and performed an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). The performance of the FINDRISC was determined by calculating sensitiv ity, specificity, and area under the curve (AUC-ROC). The Youden's J statistic index was used to define the optimal cutoff point. Results : 148 subjects between the ages of 18-65 were admitted, with a mean age of 42,9 ± 11,8, the 69% being males. The frequency of unknown T2D was of 3.3% (n = 5) and frequency of prediabetes was of 12.2% (n = 18). The mean of FINDRISC score was of 10.0 ± 4.8. The optimal cutoff point was ≥ 13 (sensitiv ity = 65.2%, Specificity = 74.4%) and the AUC-ROC 0.76 (IC95%: 0.66-0.86). Conclusion : The FINDRISC proved to be an effective method for identifying people with undiagnosed T2D and prediabetes with a cut-off point of 13 in the popula tion, place, and study period.

Actividades enzimáticas séricas de la ceruplasmina y la mieloperoxidasa en diabéticos tipo 2

Introducción: La diabetes mellitus tipo 2 se caracteriza por la hiperglucemia debido a la insuficiente producción de insulina de las células β. La mieloperoxidasa promueve el estrés oxidativo durante la inflamación y la ceruloplasmina se considera su inhibidor endógeno. Objetivo: Evaluar la relación entre la ceruloplasmina y la mieloperoxidasa, determinadas simultáneamente en el suero de pacientes diabéticos tipo 2. Métodos: Se estudiaron 362 pacientes diabéticos tipo 2 y 110 sujetos sanos. La actividad sérica de la ceruloplasmina se determinó por el método de Siotto; y el de la mieloperoxidasa, por el de Kraeisz. Resultados: El 72 % de los pacientes diabéticos tenían hiperglucemia y el 77 % presentaba obesidad abdominal. Las actividades de ambas enzimas se incrementaron significativamente en relación con el grupo control. El coeficiente de correlación de la actividad enzimática resultó bajo. El cociente RMPO/CP de los pacientes diabéticos superó el de los controles. La ceruloplasmina no inhibió la mieloperoxidasa. Conclusiones: Predominó la mieloperoxidasa, por tanto, no se manifestó el efecto inhibitorio de la ceruloplasmina. La elevada actividad de la mieloperoxidasa se asocia con un agravamiento del cuadro clínico del paciente diabético.

Introduction: Type 2 diabetes mellitus is characterized by hyperglycemia due to insufficient insulin production by β cells. Myeloperoxidase promotes oxidative stress during inflammation and ceruloplasmin is considered its endogenous inhibitor. Objective: To evaluate the relationship between ceruloplasmin and myeloperoxidase, determined simultaneously in the serum of type 2 diabetic patients. Methods: A total of 362 type 2 diabetic patients and 110 healthy subjects were studied. Serum ceruloplasmin activity was determined by the Siotto KM method and myeloperoxidase by the Kraeisz JE method. Results: 72% of diabetic patients had hyperglycemia and 77% had abdominal obesity. The activities of both enzymes were significantly increased relative to the control group. The correlation coefficient of enzyme activity was low. The ORMO/CP ratio of diabetic patients exceeded that of controls. Ceruloplasmin did not inhibit myeloperoxidase. Conclusions: Myeloperoxidase predominated, therefore, the inhibitory effect of ceruloplasmin was not manifested. The high activity of myeloperoxidase was associated with a worsening of the clinical picture of the diabetic patient.

Epidemia de diabetes tipo 2 en México. Análisis de la carga de la enfermedad 1990-2021 e implicaciones en la política pública / Type 2 diabetes epidemic in Mexico. Burden of disease 1990-2021 analysis and implications for public policies

Resumen Antecedentes: México enfrenta un desafío por la carga que representa la diabetes tipo 2 (DT2). Objetivo: Analizar la epidemiología y la carga de DT2 en México de 1990 a 2021 en los ámbitos nacional y estatal. Material y métodos: Se empleó el Global Burden of Disease 2021 para evaluar prevalencia, incidencia, mortalidad, carga letal y no letal. Se consideraron factores metabólicos, ambientales y de comportamiento. Se realizó análisis comparativo por sexo, edad y entidad federativa. Resultados: Se incrementó la prevalencia de DT2 en 25 % y la incidencia en menores de 45 años; la mortalidad en mujeres disminuyó. La tasa de años de vida saludable (AVISA) perdidos se incrementó en todos los estados, entre 45.2 % en Nuevo León y 237.6 % en Tabasco. En 2021, la DT2 ocasionó 3.1 millones de AVISA perdidos, que representaron 6.6 % de la carga total en México, de la cual 64 % se atribuyó a muertes prematuras. La neuropatía diabética afectó a 47 % y las afecciones visuales a 270 000 personas; 66.3 % de la carga se atribuyó a obesidad. Conclusiones: Urgen políticas integrales para reducir la carga de DT2 en México, mediante pautas estandarizadas, estrategias basadas en evidencia y recursos tecnológicos que mejoren la accesibilidad y eficiencia de la atención médica.

Abstract Background: Mexico faces a challenge due to the burden imposed by type 2 diabetes (T2D). Objective: To analyze T2D epidemiology and burden in Mexico from 1990 to 2021, at the national and state levels. Material and methods: Estimates from the Global Burden of Disease 2021 study were used to evaluate the prevalence, incidence, mortality, fatal and non-fatal burden. Metabolic, environmental and behavioral factors were considered. Comparative analyses were carried out by gender, age and state of the country. Results: The prevalence of T2D increased by 25%. The incidence increased in those younger than 45 years, with a mortality decrease being found among women. The rate of disability-adjusted life years (DALY) showed an increase in all states, from 45.2% in Nuevo León to 237.6% in Tabasco. In 2021, T2D caused the loss of 3.1 million DALYs, which accounted for 6.6% of total burden in Mexico, out of which 64% was due to premature deaths. Diabetic neuropathy affected 47%, and there were 270,000 cases of visual impairment; 66.3% of the burden was attributed to obesity. Conclusions: Comprehensive policies are urgently needed in order to reduce the burden of T2D in Mexico, through standardized guidelines, evidence-based strategies and technological resources that improve medical care accessibility and efficiency.

Material y Métodos: Estudio de intervención realizado en 65 pacientes ambulatorios, mayores de 35 años, con diabetes tipo 2, distribuidos aleatoriamente en dos grupos: grupo control (35) quien recibió un manual de cuidado de los pies, y grupo intervención (30) quien recibió la intervención, un kit de cuidado de los pies y un manual. El seguimiento se realizó a los tres y seis meses después de la intervención. El análisis estadístico incluyó la prueba de Chi-cuadrado, prueba de Wilcoxon y prueba ANOVA de mediciones repetidas. Resultados: La intervención mejoró los conocimientos y el autocuidado de pies en el grupo de intervención, con diferencias significativas entre grupos (p=.001), pero no mejoró el control glucémico ni el riesgo de ulceración. Conclusiones: El programa "tus pies te llaman" fue efectivo parcialmente, este estudio puede ser replicado en instituciones de primer nivel de forma ordinaria para mejorar el autocuidado y prevenir la ulceración del pie a mediano plazo.

Abstract Objective: To evaluate the impact of an individualized educational intervention on knowledge, self-care of the feet, glycemic control, risk of ulceration and incidence of ulcers in patients with type 2 diabetes. Material and Methods: The intervention study, was carried out on 65 outpatients, over 35 years of age, with type 2 diabetes, patients were randomly distributed into two groups: the control group (35), who received a manual on foot care, and the intervention group (30), who received the intervention, a foot care kit, and manual. Follow-up was done at three and six months after the intervention. Statistical analysis included the Chi-square test, Wilcoxon test and the ANOVA test of repeated measures. Results: The intervention improved knowledge and foot self-care in the intervention group with significant differences between groups (p=.001), but not the glycemic control or the ulceration risk. Conclusions: The program "Your Feet Call You" was partially effective, and this study can be ordinarily replicated in first-level institutions to improve self-care and prevent foot ulceration in the medium term.

Detección de alto riesgo de desarrollar diabetes mellitus tipo 2 mediante el cuestionario FINDRISC en personal de enfermería del Hospital Schestakow de San Rafael, Mendoza / Detection of high risk of developing type 2 diabetes mellitus using FINDRISC test in nursing staff at the Schestakow Hospital in San Rafael, Mendoza

Resumen Introducción: la diabetes mellitus tipo 2 (DM2) tiene gran importancia para la salud pública mundial, porque es una de las enfermedades no transmisibles más frecuentes, por la severidad y diversidad de sus complicaciones crónicas. Objetivo: el objetivo fue determinar el riesgo de desarrollar DM2 en personal de enfermería del Hospital T. J. Schestakow, San Rafael. Materiales y método: se realizó un estudio descriptivo de tipo transversal, se tomó una muestra no probabilística, que incluyó 109 enfermeros. Se evaluó el estado nutricional a través del índice de masa corporal (IMC) y la circunferencia de cintura (CC). Los datos personales y los obtenidos del cuestionario FINDRISC fueron adquiridos a través de un cuestionario realizado a los enfermeros. Resultados: el riesgo de desarrollar DM2 según las categorías de FINDRISC fue bajo en un 35,6% (n=41), ligeramente aumentado en un 39,4% (n=43), moderado en un 10,1% (n=11), alto y muy alto riesgo en un 12,9% (n=14). Esto está fuertemente influenciado por los antecedentes familiares de primer grado, la actividad física, la medicación antihipertensiva recibida, la glucemia elevada, el IMC, la circunferencia de cintura y la edad. El consumo de frutas y verduras no fue un factor determinante del riesgo de diabetes en la muestra estudiada (p>0,05). En cuanto a la CC y el IMC, ambos se correlacionaron de manera moderada-alta con el puntaje de FINDRISC, por lo cual estos indicadores fueron mejores predictores del riesgo para desarrollar diabetes. Conclusión: el riesgo de padecer DM2 es latente y constante, por lo que el uso de instrumentos fáciles y rápidos para su detección, como lo es el cuestionario FINDRISC, pueden ayudar en la prevención y toma de conciencia del autocuidado.

Abstract Introduction: type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has a great importance for global public health, because it is one of the most frequent non-communicable diseases, due to the severity and diversity of its chronic complications. Objective: the objective of this study was to determine the risk of developing T2DM in nursing staff of the T. J. Schestakow Hospital, San Rafael. Material and methods: a descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out, a non-probabilistic sample was taken, which included 109 nurses. Nutritional status was assessed through body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC). Personal data and data obtained from the FINDRISC test were acquired through a questionnaire administered to nurses. Results: the risk of developing T2DM according to the Findrisc categories was low in 35.6% (n=41), slightly increased in 39.4% (n=43), moderate in 10.1% (n=11), high and very high risk in 12.9% (n=14). This is strongly influenced by first-degree family history, physical activity, antihypertensive medication, elevated blood glucose, BMI, waist circumference, and age. The consumption of fruits and vegetables was not a determinant of diabetes risk in the studied sample (p>0.05). Regarding WC and BMI, both were moderately to high correlated with the Findrisc score so these indicators were better predictors of the risk of developing diabetes. Conclusion: the risk of suffering from T2DM is latent and constant, so the use of quick and easy tools for its detection, such as the FINDRISC questionnaire, can help in the prevention and awareness of self-care.

Trans-palmitoleic acid does not modify the inflammasome expression in a rodent model of diet-induced obesity / El ácido trans-palmitoléico no modifica la expresión del inflamasoma en un modelo murino de obesidad inducida por dieta

Abstract Background: Metabolic disorders such as obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2D) coincide with an increased expression of pro-inflammatory factors. The NLRP3 inflammasome is a complex that activates the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-1β. (NOD-like receptor protein 3). Some nutrients, such as fatty acids, influence inflammatory processes. For example, in clinical studies, higher trans-palmitoyl acid (TP) concentrations coincide with lower adiposity and lower risk of developing T2D. This study aims to evaluate the effect of TP on NLRP3 expression in a rodent model of diet-induced obesity (DIO). Methods: C57BL/6J mice were fed ad libitum with a control or a high-fat diet (HFD), added with or without TP (3 g/kg diet), for 11 weeks. IL-1β was quantified in serum, and NLRP3-related gene expression was explored in epididymal adipose tissue. Results: Despite increased weight gain in both high-fat groups, the high-fat TP group gained less weight than the high-fat group. In addition, NLRP3 and caspase-1 expression was higher in the HFD groups, but no differences were observed between the HFD and the HFD TP groups. Serum IL-1β levels were not different among groups. Conclusions: Diet supplementation with TP prevents weight gain and has a neutral influence over NLRP3 expression and IL-1β concentration in a DIO mice model.

Resumen Introducción: Las alteraciones metabólicas como la obesidad y diabetes tipo 2 (DT2) coinciden con la expresión aumentada de factores proinflamatorios. Un complejo que induce la activación de la citocina proinflamatoria IL-1β es el inflamasoma NLRP3 (NOD-like receptor protein 3). Algunos nutrimentos, como los ácidos grasos, influencian los procesos inflamatorios. Por ejemplo, en estudios clínicos, mayores concentraciones del ácido trans-palmitoléico (TP) coinciden con una menor adiposidad y un menor riesgo de desarrollar DT2. El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar el efecto del TP sobre la expresión del inflamasoma NLRP3 en un modelo de obesidad inducida por dieta (OID) en roedores. Métodos: Se alimentaron ratones C57BL/6J ad libitum con una dieta control o alta en lípidos (AL), adicionada o no con TP (3 g/kg dieta), durante 11 semanas. Se cuantificó la concentración de IL-1β en elsuero de los animales, y en el tejido adiposo epididimal se midió la expresión de los componentes del inflamasoma. Resultados: A pesar del aumento de peso en ambos grupos de dieta con alto contenido en lípidos, el grupo alto en lípidos TP ganó menos peso que el grupo AL. Por otro lado, la expresión de genes del inflamasoma resultó mayor en los grupos AL, pero no se encontraron diferencias entre los grupos AL y AL TP. Además, no se observaron diferencias en la concentración de IL-1β en suero entre grupos. Conclusiones: La dieta suplementada con TP previno el aumento del peso corporal, pero no modificó la expresión de los componentes del inflamasoma ni la concentración de IL-1β en suero.

Evaluación de la efectividad de la vitamina E en la esteatosis hepática no alcohólica en pacientes diabéticos tipo 2 sin fibrosis avanzada

Objetivo: Determinar la efectividad de la vitamina E en la esteatosis hepática no alcohólica (EHGNA) en pacientes diabéticos tipo 2 sin fibrosis avanzada. Materiales y métodos: Estudio analítico de tipo cuasi experimental. Se formaron dos grupos, un grupo experimental que recibió vitamina E de 400 UI además del manejo convencional, y otro grupo de control con manejo convencional. El estudio incluyó a 71 pacientes en cada grupo. Ambos grupos fueron sometidos al cálculo de un puntaje de fibrosis hepática, ecografía hepática y a la medición de la transaminasa glutámico-pirúvica al inicio del estudio y tras 6 meses. Asimismo, para comparar concentraciones de los valores de puntaje de fibrosis y de la transaminasa glutámico-pirúvica dentro de un mismo grupo se empleó la prueba Wilcoxon, y para evaluar diferencias entre el grupo experimental y control se realizó la prueba de U de Mann-Whitney. Para comparar la severidad ecográfica se empleó la prueba de Wilcoxon. Luego se realizó la regresión logística. Se procedió a registrar la información en una ficha de recolección de datos haciendo uso del programa Microsoft Excel, posteriormente, se procedió a codificar y generar una base de datos con el paquete estadístico SPSS v. 23. Resultados: Dentro de los resultados se halló que la vitamina E fue efectiva en reducir el puntaje fibrosis hepática, transaminasas y severidad ecográfica en forma significativa (Z = -4,727 y p < 0,05). De acuerdo al análisis de regresión lineal el nivel de TGP y de score de fibrosis no son explicados significativamente por las variables confusoras incluidas en el modelo al 95 % de confianza. Conclusiones: La vitamina E a una dosis de 400 UI vía oral durante 6 meses es una intervención efectiva para controlar la progresión de la hepatopatía que puede cuantificarse mediante puntaje de fibrosis, disminución de transaminasas y valoración ecográfica tras 6 meses de seguimiento.

Objective: To determine the effectiveness of vitamin E in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) among type 2 diabetes patients without advanced fibrosis. Materials and methods: A quasi-experimental analytical study consisting of two groups: an experimental one, which received vitamin E 400 IU in addition to the standard treatment, and a control group, which received only the standard treatment. The study included 71 patients in each group. Both groups underwent liver fibrosis scoring, liver ultrasound and glutamate pyruvate transaminase measurement at study baseline and after six months. Moreover, the Wilcoxon test was used to compare the concentrations of fibrosis score and glutamate pyruvate transaminase values within the same group, and the Mann-Whitney U test was used to evaluate the differences between the experimental and control groups. The Wilcoxon test was also used to compare ultrasound severity. Then, a logistic regression analysis was performed. The information was entered into a data collection sheet using Microsoft Excel; afterwards, a database was coded and created using IBM SPSS Statistics statistical software 23.0. Results: Among the results, it was found that vitamin E was significantly effective in reducing liver fibrosis, transaminase and ultrasound severity scores (Z = -4.727 and p < 0.05). According to the logistic regression analysis, glutamate pyruvate transaminase levels and fibrosis score are not substantially explained by the confounding variables included in the model at 95 % confidence. Conclusions: Vitamin E at a dose of 400 IU given orally for six months is an effective intervention to control the progression of liver disease, which can be quantified by fibrosis score, transaminase reduction and ultrasound assessment after a 6-month follow-up.

Gut dysbiosis, inflammation and type 2 diabetes in mice using synthetic gut microbiota from diabetic humans / Disbiose intestinal, inflamação e diabetes tipo 2 em camundongos usando microbiota intestinal sintética de humanos diabéticos

The study was aimed to assess impact of high fat diet (HFD) and synthetic human gut microbiota (GM) combined with HFD and chow diet (CD) in inducing type-2 diabetes (T2D) using mice model. To our knowledge, this is the first study using selected human GM transplantation via culture based method coupled dietary modulation in mice for in vivo establishment of inflammation leading to T2D and gut dysbiosis. Twenty bacteria (T2D1-T2D20) from stool samples of confirmed T2D subjects were found to be morphologically different and subjected to purification on different media both aerobically and anerobically, which revealed seven bacteria more common among 20 isolates on the basis of biochemical characterization. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequencing, these seven isolates were identified as Bacteroides stercoris (MT152636), Lactobacillus acidophilus (MT152637), Lactobacillus salivarius (MT152638), Ruminococcus bromii (MT152639), Klebsiella aerogenes (MT152640), Bacteroides fragilis (MT152909), Clostridium botulinum (MT152910). The seven isolates were subsequently used as synthetic gut microbiome (GM) for their role in inducing T2D in mice. Inbred strains of albino mice were divided into four groups and were fed with CD, HFD, GM+HFD and GM+CD. Mice receiving HFD and GM+modified diet (CD/HFD) showed highly significant (P<0.05) increase in weight and blood glucose concentration as well as elevated level of inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-6, and MCP-1) compared to mice receiving CD only. The 16S rRNA gene sequencing of 11 fecal bacteria obtained from three randomly selected animals from each group revealed gut dysbiosis in animals receiving GM. Bacterial strains including Bacteroides gallinarum (MT152630), Ruminococcus bromii (MT152631), Lactobacillus acidophilus (MT152632), Parabacteroides gordonii (MT152633), Prevotella copri (MT152634) and Lactobacillus gasseri (MT152635) were isolated from mice [...].

Costo-efectividad del tratamiento con insulina para el control de diabetes mellitus tipo 2 en México / Cost-effectiveness in insulin treatment for type 2 diabetes mellitus control in Mexico

Resumen Objetivo: Identificar la intervención más costo-efectiva para el tratamiento de la diabetes mellitus tipo 2, en el primer nivel de atención, cuando el paciente requiere del uso de algún tipo de insulina, con base en estudios clínicos previos. Material y métodos: Se efectuó un análisis costo-efectividad desde la perspectiva del proveedor. Se obtuvieron los costos de tres tipos de insulina como fármaco de control: insulina glargina, insulina protamina neutra de Hagedorn (NPH) e insulina lispro/lispro protamina 25-75 UI. Los indicadores de efectividad se obtuvieron de estudios previos que analizaron el efecto de los fármacos sobre la hemoglobina glucosilada (HbA1c). Resultados: La intervención que presentó el mejor coeficiente costo- efectividad fue el tratamiento con insulina glargina, con un valor de 570, comparado con 643.1 de la insulina NPH y 572.6 de la insulina lispro/lispro protamina 25-75 UI. Conclusiones: La insulina glargina es el tratamiento en pacientes que requieren insulinas y no presentan daño microvascular, la que presenta la mejor evidencia para invertir debido a su costo y su efectividad (analizados a través del coeficiente costo-efectividad). Estos resultados pueden considerarse en el contexto mexicano para mejorar la adquisición de medicamentos y los estándares de tratamiento para pacientes con diabetes mellitus tipo 2.

Abstract Objective: To identify the best cost-effective intervention for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus, at the first level of care, when the patient requires the use of insulin, based on previous clinical analysis. Materials and methods: A cost-effectiveness analysis was carried out, from the provider perspective. The cost of three types of insulin as a control drug were obtained: glargine insulin, neutral protamine Hagedorn (NPH) insulin and lispro insulin/lispro protamine 25-75 IU. The effectiveness indicators were obtained from previous studies that analyzed the effect on glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c). Results: The intervention that presented the best cost-effective coefficient was the treatment with glargine insulin, with a value of 570, compared to 643.1 for the NPH insulin and 57 for the lispro/lispro protamine insulin. Conclusions: Glargine insulin is the treatment in patients who require insulins, without microvascular damage, that presents the best evidence to invest in, because of its cost and efficiency (analyzed through a cost- efficiency coefficient). These results may be considered in the Mexican context to improve drug's acquisition and the treatment standards to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Grado de oxidación en pacientes con Diabetes Mellitus Tipo 2 / Oxidation degree in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

La peroxidación lipídica es un proceso complejo que hace referencia a la degradación oxidativa de los lípidos, a través del cual los radicales libres capturan electrones de los lípidos en las membranas celulares, lo cual compromete la integridad y la función de la membrana. Mediante una serie de reacciones en cadena, se forman los peróxidos lipídicos que se degradan para formar compuestos reactivos como el malondialdehído (MDA) y 4-hidroxinonenal, los cuáles pueden ser cuantificados por diferentes metodologías. Objetivo: El presente trabajo se realizó con la finalidad establecer el grado de oxidación en una población con diabetes tipo 2 (DM2).Métodos: Estudio descriptivo, analítico y transversal; muestra de 55 personas, conformada por 30 controles entre 25-35 años y 25 pacientes con DM2 entre 25-50 años, se les determinó glicemia, triglicéridos, colesterol total, HDL-Colesterol y LDL-Colesterol por método colorimétrico enzimático, así como se determinó la concentración de 4-hidroxinonenal como un marcador de estrés oxidativo Resultados: Los valores de 4-hidroxinonenal en la población control oscilaron entre 2,61y 6,83 µmol/L y en los diabéticos de 28,99 y 73,74 µmol/L., encontrándose diferencias estadísticamente significativas entre ambas poblaciones, así como en el perfil lipídico y en la glicemia entre ambos grupos. Conclusión: Los resultados demuestran una elevación de la peroxidación lipídica en pacientes diabéticos, lo cual es indicativo de estrés oxidativo y riesgo adicional en estos pacientes que podrían conllevar a las complicaciones crónicas dela diabetes tipo 2(AU)

Lipid peroxidation is a complexprocess that refers to the oxidative degradation of lipids, through which free radicals capture electrons from lipids incell membranes, which compromises the integrity and functionof the membrane. Trough a series of chain reactions, lipidperoxides are formed that degrade to form reactive compoundssuch as malondialdehyde (MDA) and 4-hydroxynonenal, whichcan be quantified by different methodologies. Objective: The present work was carried out with the purpose ofestablishing the degree of oxidation in a population withtype 2 diabetes (DM2). Methods: the sample was 55 people,made up of 30 controls between 25-35 years and 25 patientswith DM2 and between 25-50 years, glycemia, triglycerides,total cholesterol, HDL-Cholesterol and LDL-Cholesterol were etermined by colorimetric method. enzymatic, as well as theconcentration of 4-hydroxynonenal was determined as a markerof oxidative stress. Results: The values of 4-hydroxynonenal inthe control population ranged between 2.61 and 6.83 µmol/Land in diabetics 28.99 and 73.74 µmol/L., finding statisticallysignificant differences between both populations, as well as inthe lipid profile and glycemia between both groups. Conclusion:The results show an elevation of lipid peroxidation in diabeticpatients, which is indicative of oxidative stress and additionalrisk in these patients that could lead to chronic complications oftype 2 diabetes(AU)

Diabetes tipo 2 ¿En la vida real es posible lograr la meta glucémica? / Type 2 Diabetes. Is it possible to achieve the glycemic goal in real life?

Resumen Lograr control glucémico en diabetes tipo 2 (DMT2) previene, o enlentece las complicaciones crónicas y prolonga la supervivencia. Objetivo: analizar metas de control metabólico en adultos con DMT2 tratados por especialistas en Argentina y su relación con la adherencia a la medicación prescrita, las diferentes estrategias de tratamiento, la antigüedad de la enfermedad, las variables de calidad de vida y pre sencia de complicaciones crónicas de DMT2. Métodos: diseño transversal; estudio multicéntrico realizado en 28 centros de Argentina durante 2018. La muestra se seleccionó en forma aleatoria y sistemática. Se aplicó cuestionario de adherencia Morisky-Green-Levine y OMS-5 para calidad de vida. Se analizaron antecedentes de enfermedad y marcadores de laboratorio. Resultados: de 1329 casos de DMT2 incluidos, el 60.2% logró la meta. Respecto al tratamiento farmacológico en diabetes: el 5.1% estaba sin medicación, 47.5% con 1 fármaco, el 34.5% con 2, el 12.9% con 3 o más; a su vez, con insulina (sola o combinada) el 38.1%. Según cuestionario, adhería al tratamiento el 68.4% y el 72.6% alcanzó A1C < 7%. Entre los no adherentes, alcan zó la meta glucémica el 27.4%. Lograr esta meta se asoció con edad mayor de 65 años (p < 0.0001), mayor score de adherencia (p < 0.0001), tener medicina prepaga (p < 0.0001), y realizar actividad física (p < 0.02). El peor control metabólico se asoció con antigüedad de DMT2 (p < 0.0001), insulinoterapia (p < 0.0001) y síntomas de depresión (p < 0.002) Conclusiones: Los más jóvenes y los más vulnerables presentaron menor adherencia; en ellos intervenir e intensificar tratamiento más tempranamente permitiría mejores resultados.

Abstract Introduction: Achieving glycemic control in type 2 diabetes(T2D) prevents or delays chronic complications and extends survival. Aim: to analyze metabolic control goals in adults with T2DM, treated by specialists in their usual practice in Argentina, and their relationship with adherence to prescribed medications, different treatment strategies, time of diagnosis, quality of life variables and presence of chronic complications of T2DM. Methods: cross-sectional design; multicenter study conducted in 28 centers in Argentina during 2018. The sample was selected randomly and systematically. Morisky-Green-Levine and WHO-5 adherence questionnaire for quality of life was applied. History of disease and laboratory markers were analyzed. Results: of 1329 DMT2 cases included, 60.2% achieved the goal. Regarding pharmacological treatment in diabetes: 5.1% were without medication, 47.5% with 1 drug, 34.5% with 2, 12.9% with 3 or more; in turn, with insulin (alone or combined) 38.1%. According to the questionnaire, 68.4% adhered to treatment and 72.6% reached A1C <7%. Among the non-adherents, 27.4% reached the goal. Achieving the glycemic goal was associated with age ≥ 65 years (p < 0.0001), higher adherence score (p < 0.0001), private health insurance (p < 0.0001), and physical activity (p < 0.02). The worst metabolic control was associated with time of DMT2 diagnosis (p<0.0001), insulin therapy (p < 0.0001) and symptoms of depression (p < 0.002) Conclusions: The youngest and most vulnerable presented lower values for adherence; intervening and intensifying the treatment earlier in them would allow better results.

Intervención educativa sobre la diabetes tipos 2 en una población sin hogar de Miami-Dade / Educational Intervention on Type 2 Diabetes in a Miami-Dade Homeless Population

Resumen: Objetivo: Las personas sin hogar tienen significativamente más necesidades de salud y tasas más altas de morbilidad y mortalidad, así como más hospitalizaciones y/o rehospitalizaciones que la población en general, causadas por factores como la pobreza extrema, el acceso deficiente a la atención médica y los desafíos en la adherencia a los medicamentos, por lo cual el presente estudio se propuso aplicar una intervención educativa sobre la diabetes tipo 2, dirigida a las personas sin hogar residentes en un refugio, con el fin de mejorar las técnicas de autocontrol y autocuidado de esta enfermedad crónica. Materiales y métodos: La intervención educativa fue realizada en un refugio para personas sin hogar de Miami Dade, con 250 participantes y consistió en tres sesiones de autocontrol y autocuidado de la diabetes y una lista de recursos de la comunidad en el idioma de preferencia de la persona (inglés o español). Las evaluaciones incluyeron una encuesta antes y después de la intervención y una evaluación previa y posterior mediante el cuestionario Diabetes Knowledge (DKQ-24). Resultados: Datos demográficos: 88% hombres y 12% mujeres, 40% hispanos, 36% afroamericanos, 26% caucásicos, idioma 64% inglés y 36% español. Hubo una diferencia significativa en la medición antes y después de dos meses de la intervención educativa (p <0,000). Conclusiones: La intervención educativa para mejorar la calidad de vida, el autocontrol y el autocuidado de los pacientes sin hogar con diabetes tipo 2 tuvo un efecto positivo y estos resultados pueden proporcionar la base para intervenciones futuras que ayuden a los profesionales de la salud a identificar las necesidades y abordarlas a través de intervenciones educativas adaptadas al contexto.

Abstract: Objective: Homeless people have significantly more health needs and higher rates of morbidity and mortality, as well as more hospitalizations and / or rehospitalizations than the general population, caused by factors such as extreme poverty, poor access to medical care and the challenges in adherence to medications, for which the present study set out to apply an educational intervention on type 2 diabetes, aimed at homeless people living in a shelter, in order to improve self-control and self-care techniques of this chronic disease. Materials and methods: The educational intervention was conducted in a Miami Dade homeless shelter with 250 participants and consisted of three diabetes self- management and self-care sessions and a list of community resources in the preferred language of the community. person (English or Spanish). The evaluations included a survey before and after the intervention and a pre- and post-evaluation using the Diabetes Knowledge questionnaire (DKQ-24). Results: Demographic data: 88% male and 12% female, 40% Hispanic, 36% African American, 26% Caucasian, 64% English and 36% Spanish language. There was a significant difference in the measurement before and after two months of the educational intervention (p <0.001). Conclusions: Educational intervention to improve the quality of life, self-control, and self-care of homeless patients with type 2 diabetes had a positive effect and these results may provide the basis for future interventions that help health professionals to identify needs and address them through context-specific educational interventions.
