Effects of Dietary Sodium and Protein Intake on Glomerular Filtration Rate in Subjects with Type 2 Diabetes Treated with Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter 2 Inhibitors.

Background: Approximately one-fourth of patients treated with sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) experience an acute estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) reduction of more than 10% ("dippers"). High sodium and protein intake can increase intraglomerular pressure and predispose to a decline in renal function. We investigated whether measured creatinine clearance (CrCl) is a sensitive enough method to detect the initial dip of GFR and if dietary sodium and protein intake might influence the extent of the early change in GFR.

Lipid-induced glucose intolerance is driven by impaired glucose kinetics and insulin metabolism in healthy individuals.

Aims: Hypertriglyceridemia is associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes. We aimed to comprehensively examine the effects of hypertriglyceridemia on major glucose homeostatic mechanisms involved in diabetes progression.

Methods: In this randomized, cross-over, single-blinded study, two dual-labeled, 3-hour oral glucose tolerance tests were performed during 5-hour intravenous infusions of either 20 % Intralipid or saline in 12 healthy subjects (age 27.

Pregnancy outcomes and maternal characteristics in women with pregestational and gestational diabetes: a retrospective study on 206,917 singleton live births.

Aims: To examine risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes, mothers' characteristics and incidence rate over time of pregestational type 1 (T1D), type 2 (T2D) or gestational diabetes (GDM).

Methods: The study included all singleton live births born from women aged 15-45 year, in Tuscany, Italy from 2010 to 2018. Pregnancy outcomes were retrieved by certificates of care at delivery compiled by midwives.

Gender Difference in the Risk of Adverse Outcomes After Diabetic Foot Disease: A Mini-Review.

Diabetic foot disease (DFD) is a complication of diabetes mellitus, characterized by multiple pathogenetic factors, bearing a very high burden of disability as well as of direct and indirect costs for individuals or healthcare systems. A further characteristic of DFD is that it is associated with a marked risk of subsequent hospitalizations for incident cardiovascular events, chronic renal failure or of allcause mortality. Additionally, DFD is strongly linked to the male sex, being much more prevalent among men.

Efficacy and Safety of Glimepiride With or Without Linagliptin Treatment in Patients With HNF1A Diabetes (Maturity-Onset Diabetes of the Young Type 3): A Randomized, Double-Blinded, Placebo-Controlled, Crossover Trial (GLIMLINA).

Objective: Sulfonylureas are first-line treatment of hepatocyte nuclear factor 1-α (HNF1A) diabetes (maturity-onset diabetes of the young type 3), but many patients do not achieve optimal glycemic control without episodes of hypoglycemia. We investigated the combination of the sulfonylurea glimepiride and the dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitor linagliptin versus glimepiride monotherapy with respect to glycemic variability, glycemic control, and risk of hypoglycemia.

Research Design And Methods: In a randomized, double-blinded, crossover trial, patients with HNF1A diabetes ( = 19; mean ± SD age 43 ± 14 years, BMI 24.
