The aim of the study was to evaluate the left ventricular function and cardiac arrhythmias in patients with insulin-dependent diabetes, but without observable changes of the circulatory system in clinical examination. 30 patients underwent the study with the insulin-dependent diabetes treated for 2 months--30 years. There was no evidence of hypertension, renal and hepatic failure. Well controlled diabetes was stated in all of them. The control group consisted of 20 healthy persons. M-mode echocardiographic examination and 24-hour Holter ecg monitoring was performed in all patients. Decreased left ventricular compliance and complex ventricular arrhythmias were stated in patients with insulin-dependent diabetes.

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), such as pembrolizumab, have revolutionized cancer therapy but can lead to severe immune-related adverse events (irAEs). We present a case of fulminant type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and mesenteric ischemia in a 78-year-old woman with recurrent stage IIIC1 cervical cancer treated with pembrolizumab. Thirty-four days after initiating a pembrolizumab-containing regimen, she presented with vomiting, severe hyperglycemia, metabolic acidosis, and strongly positive urine ketones.

Association between the atherogenic index of plasma and long-term risk of type 2 diabetes: a 12-year cohort study based on the Japanese population.

Department of Cardiology, Zhongda Hospital, Southeast University, No. 87 Dingjiaqiao, Nanjing, 210009, Jiangsu, China.

Background: Atherosclerotic dyslipidemia is associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Although previous studies have demonstrated an association between the atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) and insulin resistance, there remains a scarcity of large cohort studies investigating the association between AIP and the long-term risk of T2D in the general population. This study aims to investigate the potential association between AIP and the long-term risk of T2D in individuals with normal fasting plasma glucose levels.

Observational studies have reported an association between lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) and immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs). This study used Mendelian Randomization (MR) and multivariable MR (MVMR) to explore the causal relationship between lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] and immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs). We performed a bidirectional two-sample mendelian randomization analyses based on genome-wide association study (GWAS) summary statistics of Lp(a) and nine IMIDs, specifically celiac disease (CeD), Crohn's disease (CD), ulcerative colitis (UC), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), multiple sclerosis (MS), psoriasis (Pso), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), type 1 diabetes (T1D), and summary-level data for lipid traits.

Diabetes is a detriment to male reproductive health, notably through its capacity to diminish secretion from accessory glands such as the seminal vesicles and prostate, which are crucial for reproductive function. Curcumin, a naturally derived polyphenol renowned for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidative attributes, has demonstrated potential in mitigating tissue damage across various organs in diabetic patients. Despite its established benefits, the specific impact of curcumin on seminal vesicle damage in the context of diabetes remains underexplored.

Telehealth occupational therapy improves psychosocial well-being but not glycemia among young adults with type 1 diabetes: The Resilient, Empowered, Active Living-Telehealth (REAL-T) randomized controlled trial.

Diabetes Res Clin Pract

Division of Endocrinology, Department of Pediatrics, Children's Hospital Los Angeles, Los Angeles, CA, United States; Keck School of Medicine, University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA, United States.

Background: Young adults with type 1 diabetes mellitus often face challenges managing their condition, leading to elevated glucose and heightened psychosocial distress. Diabetes care traditionally focuses on biomedical outcomes, with less emphasis on well-being. Occupational therapy offers a holistic approach to managing diabetes by integrating changes to daily habits and routines and psychosocial support.
