Most recently, 1-h hyperglycemia has been recognized as an additional risk factor for type 2 diabetes. To date, previous genome-wide association studies for glycemic traits have a limited impact on the fasting state and 2-h plasma glucose level in an oral glucose challenge. To identify genetic susceptibility in different stages of glucose tolerance, we performed a meta-analysis for glycemic traits including 1-h plasma glucose (1-hPG) from 14 232 non-diabetic individuals in the Korean population. Newly implicated variants (MYL2, C12orf51 and OAS1) were found to be significantly associated with 1-hPG. We also demonstrated associations with gestational diabetes mellitus. Our results could provide additional insight into the genetic variation in the clinical range of glycemia.

The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted global health, especially in vulnerable populations like kidney transplant recipients (KTRs). Recently, mass spectrometry-based proteomics has emerged as a powerful tool to shed light on a broad spectrum of dysregulated biological processes in KTRs with COVID-19. In this study, we prospectively collected blood samples from 17 COVID-19-positive KTRs and 10 non-infected KTRs between May and September 2020.

Background: Functional foods have been widely used as the anti-diabetic agents worldwide. Existing studies presented conflicting results of anti-hyperglycemic properties of gums. This systematic review and meta-analysis study evaluated the existing trials and determined the efficacy of different gums on glycemic indices.

Objective: Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is a chronic complication of diabetes that can potentially escalate into ulceration, amputation and other severe consequences. The aim of this study was to construct and validate a predictive nomogram model for assessing the risk of DPN development among diabetic patients, thereby facilitating the early identification of high-risk DPN individuals and mitigating the incidence of severe outcomes.
Methods: 1185 patients were included in this study from June 2020 to June 2023.

Jiaogulan (Gynostemma pentaphyllum) is a traditional herb with potential antidiabetic properties. This study investigated the underlying mechanisms of these properties by analysing plasma protein profiles in type 2 diabetes patients. A total of 42 participants were divided into three groups, each comprising 14 individuals: healthy controls (N), untreated type 2 diabetes patients (DM), and Jiaogulan-treated type 2 diabetes patients (DMJ).

With the expanding global population, interest has increased in the sustainable aquaculture development of indigenous fishes. In Hawai'i, the brassy chub, Kyphosus vaigiensis, has drawn interest as a candidate species for production. However, little is known about its resilience in aquaculture settings where fish are exposed to acute, husbandry-related stressors.
