Perkovic et al. use novel data from the ADVANCE study to report on the potential renal benefits of standard glycemic control, compared with intensive glycemic control (mean hemoglobin A1c 7.3 and 6.5%, respectively). Intensive glycemic control reduced the risk of new-onset microalbuminuria, new-onset macroalbuminuria, and progression of albuminuria. The risk of end-stage renal disease was also reduced in patients treated with intensive glycemic control, although the number of events was small.

Exploring the relationship between glycemic variability and muscle dysfunction in adults with diabetes: A systematic review.
Rev Endocr Metab Disord
January 2025
School of Public Health, University of Technology Sydney, Ultimo, NSW, 2007, Australia.
This review is to systematically explore the relationship between muscle dysfunction and diabetes in adults, and to examine the impact of glycemic variability on muscle health and the development of diabetes-related complications. The review was conducted using three databases: MEDLINE, Scopus, and EMBASE, targeting peer-reviewed journal articles written in English and published from January 2014 to September 2024. The methodological quality assessment of the eligible studies was conducted using Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Checklists.

Background: Cardiovascular risk management is beneficial, but stringent glycemic control does not prevent the progression of distal sensorimotor polyneuropathy (DSPN). Persistent hyperglycemia-induced alterations and cardiovascular factors may contribute to diabetes-associated nerve damage. This study aimed to evaluate the correlation between skin auto-fluorescence (sAF), an indicator of dermal advanced glycation end-product (AGE) accumulations, cardiovascular risk, and changes in peripheral nerve integrity.

Am J Clin Nutr

Department of Nutritional Sciences, Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA, USA. Electronic address:
Background: The vascular and cardiometabolic effects of pecans are relatively under-studied.
Objectives: The aim was to examine how substitution of usual snack foods with 57 g/day of pecans affects vascular health, risk factors for cardiometabolic diseases and diet quality, compared to continuing usual intake in individuals at risk for cardiometabolic diseases.
Methods: A 12-week single-blinded, parallel, randomized controlled trial was conducted.
Association of detectable C-peptide levels with glycemic control and chronic complications in individuals with type 1 diabetes mellitus: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
J Diabetes Complications
September 2024
Cardiovascular Research Center, Alborz University of Medical Sciences, Karaj, Iran; Non-communicable Diseases Research Center, Alborz University of Medical Sciences, Karaj, Iran. Electronic address:
Aims: Multiple studies have addressed the association between detectable levels of C-peptide and glycemic control, as well as the development of chronic complications of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), including both macrovascular and microvascular diseases. We aimed to summarize the available evidence on the clinical significance of detectable levels of C-peptide in T1DM.
Method: A systematic search was performed on online databases using the following key terms: T1DM, C-peptide, diabetes mellitus complications, and glycemic parameters.
Glucagon like peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonists and cardiometabolic protection: historical development and future challenges.
Cardiovasc Diabetol
January 2025
Faculty of Medicine, Tel Aviv University, Tel Aviv, Israel.
Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) have revolutionized the treatment of cardiometabolic diseases, extending their therapeutic applications far beyond glycemic control in type 2 diabetes (T2D) and obesity. This editorial synthesizes key milestones, from the discovery of GLP-1 to recent clinical trials highlighting the pleiotropic effects of GLP-1RAs in addressing the interconnected spectrum of cardiometabolic conditions, with a focus on cardiovascular, renal, and hepatic benefits. In addition, as GLP-1RAs continue to reshape the management of cardiometabolic disease and global public health, we discuss future challenges to better elucidate their mechanisms of cardiometabolic protection and maximize their therapeutic potential.
