Association between non-insulin-based insulin resistance surrogate makers and Helicobacter pylori infection: a population-based study.

BMC Gastroenterol

January 2025

Department of Gastroenterology, Jiangxi Provincial Key Laboratory of Digestive Diseases, Jiangxi Clinical Research Center for Gastroenterology, Digestive Disease Hospital, The First Affiliated Hospital, Jiangxi Medical College, Nanchang University, Nanchang, Jiangxi, China.

Background: Current evidence on the associations between insulin resistance (IR) and Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection remains limited. This study aimed to investigate the association between non-insulin-based surrogate markers of IR, including the triglyceride glucose (TyG) index, triglyceride to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (TG/HDL-C) ratio, and the metabolic score for IR (METS-IR), and H.

Shiftwork and insulin resistance in professional drivers: exploring the association using non-insulin-based surrogate measures.

BMC Public Health

January 2025

Department of Public health, Occupational and Environmental Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, Suez Canal University, Ismailia, Egypt.

Background: Previous research has made use of the Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) index to explore the association between shiftwork (SW) and insulin resistance (IR). However, the limitations of the HOMA-IR index restrict its use. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between SW and IR in professional drivers using four alternative non-insulin-based IR surrogate measures (NIRS), and to determine the predictors of elevated NIRS.

Background: Vitamin B is an essential micronutrient, aids in synthesis of neurotransmitters, and vital for cognitive function. In the current younger population with more of electronic gadgets and scientific world seems to slow down critical thinking and impairs the trick of comprehensive subjective learning. Vitamin B deficiency has been linked to insulin-resistant state and future cardiovascular risk.

Objective: Prior studies demonstrate that some untoward clinical outcomes vary by outdoor temperature. This is true of some endpoints common among persons with diabetes, a population vulnerable to climate change-associated health risks. Yet, prior work has been agnostic to the antidiabetes drugs taken by such persons.

Background: Older people with diabetes who live at home and receive home care services (HCS) are vulnerable, which may result in a need for more care than the HCS can provide. In this study we aimed to explore associations between pharmacologically treated diabetes and the risk of short-term and long-term nursing home stays (NHS) among older people receiving HCS.

Methods: This nationwide registry study included older people ≥ 65 years receiving HCS, as registered in the Norwegian Information System for the Nursing and Care Sector (IPLOS) (2010-2014).
