Background: Sclerostin has been directly related to bone turnover increase in dietary-induced weight loss in non-diabetics. This has not been studied in type 2 diabetes, a condition characterized by increased circulating sclerostin and impaired bone turnover.

Purpose: To study the effect of dietary weight loss and quality of the dietary intervention on changes of sclerostin and bone turnover markers in type 2 diabetes.

Methods: This was a post-hoc analysis of the MADIAB trial, a 21-day randomized controlled trial on overweight/obese type 2 diabetes patients. Patients were randomly assigned 1:1 to the Ma-Pi2 macrobiotic diet or a control diet based on dietary guidelines for type 2 diabetes. Serum sclerostin and circulating markers of bone resorption and formation (P1NP) were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay in 40 subjects (1:1) at baseline and after 21 days treatment.

Results: Both Ma-Pi2 and the control diet groups had significant decreases in body weight (6.0 ± 0.2 vs. 3.2 ± 0.1 %, p < 0.001). Sclerostin increased significantly in the two groups (all p < 0.001) but Ma-Pi2 diet group experienced a greater increase in sclerostin (34.5 vs. 15 %; p = 0.024). Serum circulating markers of bone resorption increased in the two groups (all p < 0.001); circulating markers of bone resorption at the end of the treatment tended to be higher in Ma-Pi2 diet than the control diet group (p = 0.06). P1NP did not change significantly in the two group compared to baseline. Sclerostin changes were related to body mass index reduction (r = -0.37; p = 0.02).

Conclusions: Diet-induced weight loss may induce significant and rapid changes in bone turnover and sclerostin levels. These changes may further impair bone health in subjects with type 2 diabetes.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of heat-killed N1 (HK-N1) and lipoteichoic acid (LTA) derived from it on alleviating insulin resistance by modulating the gut microbiota and amino acid metabolism. High-fat diet (HFD)-fed mice were administered live bacteria or HK-N1, and the results demonstrated that HK-N1 significantly reduced epididymal adipocyte size and serum low density lipoprotein-cholesterol, and improved insulin resistance by increasing the YY peptide and glucagon-like peptide levels. HK-N1 also modulated the gut microbiome composition, enhancing microbiota uniformity and reducing the abundance of , and .

Objective: This study aimed to assess the financial impact of different adoption rates of insulin glargine (IGlar) treatment compared to isophane protamine (neutral protamine hagedorn [NPH]) insulin treatment for patients with type-2 diabetes (T2D) and severe hypoglycemia in Thailand from the payer's perspective.

Methods: The budget impact analysis (BIA) model over a period of 5 years was used to estimate the net budget impact (NBI) of IGlar treatment by comparing the total budget expenditures under two scenarios: scenario 1 involved only NPH insulin and scenario 2 included the introduction of IGlar. The total budget included either the cost of insulin or a combination of the costs of insulin and the expense related to severe hypoglycemia.

Background: Previous research has indicated that long working hours are connected to a variety of health conditions, including nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). However, this association which has been observed in more population is limited. Our research is designed to evaluate the association between working hours, working type, and NAFLD.

The recent study exploring the bidirectional associations between gallstone disease, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, and kidney stone disease highlights a critical concern in chronic disease management. Given the rising global prevalence of these conditions, understanding their interconnections is essential. The study emphasizes the importance of shared risk factors, such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia, and oxidative stress, and calls for multidisciplinary screening strategies.
