The current study sought to assess the effect of improving glycemic control in type 2 diabetes on the components of diabetic dyslipidemia, especially low-density lipoprotein (LDL) size. A total of 33 type 2 diabetic patients (48.5% women, age 59.6 +/- 11.1 years, body mass index [BMI] 28.9 +/- 4.9, diabetes duration 6 [0 to 40] years, 40.7% on insulin) were seen at the hospital because of poor glycemic control (hemoglobin A(1c) [HbA(1c)] 10.33% +/- 1.89%). Triglyceride, LDL-cholesterol (LDLc, Friedewald/ ultracentrifugation), high-density lipoprotein HDL-cholesterol (HDLc, direct method), apolipoproteins AI (apoAI) and B (apoB) (immunoturbidimetry), and LDL size (gradient gel electrophoresis) were measured at baseline and after improvement in glycemic control (decrease >/= 1 percentage point in HbA(1c) and final HbA(1c)

Department of Food and Nutrition, University of Helsinki, Helsinki, Finland.
Background: Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) prevalence is rising worldwide, but optimal dietary strategies remain unclear. The eMOM pilot RCT compared a plant-protein rich Healthy Nordic Diet (HND) and a moderately carbohydrate restricted diet (MCRD) and their potential effects on time in glucose target range (≤ 7.8 mmol/L, %TIR), and on newborn body composition.

We investigated the impact of trimetazidine treatment on left ventricular (LV) functions and cardiac biomarkers in diabetic patients with diastolic dysfunction as an early stage of diabetic cardiomyopathy. Sixty-three patients were randomly assigned to receive either trimetazidine or a placebo for 3 months. At baseline and after 3-months of treatment, measurements of serum levels of glycemic control parameters, lipid profile, tumor necrosis factor alpha, transforming growth factor beta 1, n-terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide and assessment of modified Medical Research Council (mMRC) dyspnea score, echocardiographic indices of LV functions and LV global longitudinal strain (GLS) were performed.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common and important polygenic endocrine disorders among women of reproductive-aged. Current treatments are mostly used only to control the signs and symptoms of the disease, while not being able to completely prevent complications. Curcumin is one of the active compounds in turmeric, which is commonly used for a wide range of metabolic and inflammatory diseases.

Objective: Glycemic outcomes in youth with type 1 diabetes (T1D) in the United States using the two most common automated insulin delivery (AID) systems, Insulet Omnipod 5 (OP5) and Tandem Control IQ (CIQ), have not been compared. We performed the first head-to-head analysis of changes in glycemic metrics among youth initiating AID.
Methods: This single center, retrospective study included youth <21 years with T1D, who started OP5 or CIQ between 1/2020 and 12/2023, and had ≥70% CGM active time.

Background: Diabetes mellitus and periodontitis are two common chronic diseases with bidirectional relationship. Considering the role of oxidative stress in the pathogenesis of these two diseases, the use of nutritional supplements with antioxidant properties can be useful. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of daily synbiotic supplement in the management of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and periodontal disease (PD) under non-surgical periodontal therapy (NSPT).
