The differences in the relationship between obstructive sleep apnea severity and trabecular bone score in men and women with type 2 diabetes.

Aims: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) may adversely affect bone. Gender is a well-established factor influencing bone health. We investigated the impact of OSA on bone mineral density (BMD) and trabecular bone score (TBS) in T2DM.

Relationship between depression, sleep quality, and hypoglycemia among persons with type 2 diabetes.

Objective: We analyzed two cohorts of people with type 2 diabetes to evaluate the relationships between depression, sleep quality, and history of hypoglycemia.

Research Design And Methods: Two adult cohorts from Chicago (n = 193) and Bangkok, Thailand (n = 282) with type 2 diabetes completed questionnaires to assess sleep quality, depressive symptoms, and hypoglycemia frequency. Proportional odds logistic regression models for each cohort adjusted for duration of therapy, insulin and sulfonylurea management, and other factors.

Evaluation of Dietary Intakes and Nutritional Knowledge in Thai Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

Introduction: Most nutritional guidelines for diabetes management emphasize the importance of having individualized goals, away from a one-size-fits-all approach. However, there is a dearth of information on the dietary intakes and nutritional knowledge of Thai patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This study is aimed at clarifying dietary intakes in relationship to glycemic control and at examining nutritional knowledge among Thai patients with T2DM.

Lack of associations between thyroid function and obstructive sleep apnea severity in adults with prediabetes and diabetes mellitus.

Purpose: Hypothyroidism is associated with a high frequency of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). However, the prevalence of OSA in hypothyroid patients is not different from the general population in many reports. The importance of thyroid function screening in sleep-disordered breathing is still controversial.

More evening preference is positively associated with systemic inflammation in prediabetes and type 2 diabetes patients.

Currently it is not known whether morningness-eveningness preference in non-night shift working population is associated with systemic inflammation. This study investigated the relationship between morningness-eveningness and systemic inflammation, as measured by high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) in 163 non-night shift working patients with abnormal glucose tolerance (86 type 2 diabetes and 77 prediabetes). Morningness-eveningness was assessed by Composite Scale of Morningness, and participants were screened for Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).

The relationship between sleep and cognitive function in patients with prediabetes and type 2 diabetes.

Aims: Diabetes is linked to cognitive impairment. Sleep plays a role in memory consolidation. Sleep disturbances, commonly found in patients with diabetes, were shown to be related to cognitive dysfunction.

The Relationship between Diabetes-Related Complications and Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Type 2 Diabetes.

This study explored the relationship between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and the presence of any diabetes-related complications in type 2 diabetes and whether this was mediated by hypertension. Secondly, the relationship between OSA severity and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was investigated. A total of 131 patients participated.

The relationship among breakfast time, morningness-eveningness preference and body mass index in Type 2 diabetes.

Aims: Obesity is prevalent and related to poor outcomes in Type 2 diabetes. Evening preference and late meal times have been shown to be associated with obesity, but data are lacking in people with Type 2 diabetes. This study examined the relationship among meal timing, morningness-eveningness preference and BMI in Type 2 diabetes, using a mediation analysis.

Eveningness Is Associated With Greater Depressive Symptoms in Type 2 Diabetes Patients: A Study in Two Different Ethnic Cohorts.

Background: Eveningness is associated with greater depressive symptoms in the general population. Depression and type 2 diabetes (T2D) commonly coexist. We aimed to explore the association between morningness-eveningness and depressive symptoms in T2D patients in the United States and in Thailand.

Night-shift work is associated with poorer glycaemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes.

The circadian system plays a role in regulating metabolism. Night-shift work, a form of circadian misalignment, is associated with increased type 2 diabetes risk. This study aimed to determine if night-shift workers with type 2 diabetes experience poorer glycaemic control than non-shift workers.

Associations between nocturnal urinary 6-sulfatoxymelatonin, obstructive sleep apnea severity and glycemic control in type 2 diabetes.

Reduced nocturnal secretion of melatonin, a pineal hormone under circadian control, and obstructive sleep apnea have been both identified as risk factors for the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Whether they interact to impact glycemic control in patients with existing type 2 diabetes is not known. Therefore, this study explores the relationships between obstructive sleep apnea, melatonin and glycemic control in type 2 diabetes.

Relationships among sleep timing, sleep duration and glycemic control in Type 2 diabetes in Thailand.

There is evidence that the sleep and circadian systems play a role in glucose metabolism. In addition to physiological factors, sleep is also affected by behavioral, environmental, cultural and social factors. In this study, we examined whether morning or evening preference, sleep timing and sleep duration are associated with glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes residing in Thailand.

Shorter sleep duration is associated with poorer glycemic control in type 2 diabetes patients with untreated sleep-disordered breathing.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to explore the impact of sleep duration on glycemic control in type 2 diabetes patients with untreated sleep-disordered breathing (SDB).

Methods: Ninety type 2 diabetes patients participated in the study. SDB was diagnosed using an overnight in-home monitoring device (WatchPAT200).
