AI Article Synopsis
- A study investigated the impact of Helicobacter pylori eradication therapy on blood sugar control in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes.
- The research involved 72 subjects, and tested their blood glycosylated hemoglobin (A1C) levels before and after the treatment.
- Results indicated no significant changes in A1C levels, suggesting that H. pylori eradication does not notably influence glycemic control in these patients.
Article Abstract
Since infection with Helicobacter pylori has been suggested to play a pathogenic role in diabetes mellitus, we investigated whether eradication therapy for H. pylori might affect glycemic control in Japanese subjects with type 2 diabetes. A total of 72 subjects (55 males, 17 females; aged 63.7 years) with type 2 diabetes who received eradication therapy for H. pylori were included. The change of their blood glycosylated hemoglobin (A1C) levels 3 months before (-3 m) the H. pylori eradication, as well as 3 months (3 m) and 6 months (6 m) after were evaluated. Their A1C levels did not show any significant change after therapy {6.9 [0.1]% (-3 m) to 7.0 [0.1]% (3 m); P = 0.3, 7.0 [0.1] (6 m); P = 0.3}. Our findings suggest that the eradication therapy for H. pylori does not, at least profoundly, affect glycemic control in Japanese subjects with type 2 diabetes.

Background: An increasing number of childbearing-aged women have undergone bariatric surgery (BS). Although pregnancy outcomes generally improve after BS, concern remains over the impact of rapid weight loss and the catabolic state that occurs soon after BS. At least a 12-month surgery-to-conception time (SCT) is recommended, though the reasoning behind this has been questioned.

Aims: In the EMPACT-MI trial, empagliflozin reduced heart failure (HF) hospitalizations but not mortality in acute myocardial infarction (MI). Contemporary reports of clinical event rates with and without type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in acute MI trials are sparse. The treatment effect of empagliflozin in those with and without T2DM in acute MI is unknown.

Introduction: Individuals with pre-diabetes are at high risk for developing type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), which makes them prone to serious complications such as stroke, kidney failure, blindness and lower-limb amputation. Pre-diabetes can be reversed, and lifestyle modification is considered the best intervention method for diabetes prevention. However, it is difficult for individuals with pre-diabetes to maintain a long-term modified healthy lifestyle owing to psychological burnout in daily management over time due to poor adherence.
