Objective: The aim of the study was to investigate the prevalence and the risk factors of maculopathy detected by optical coherence tomography (OCT) in a Chinese population with diabetes or prediabetes. s. 8,155 people were randomly selected to participate in the 2011 annual Health Examination Survey in Beijing. A 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) was tested in 3760 subjects with fasting plasma glucose (FPG) ≥ 5.6 mmol/L. Of 3,760 subjects, 583 were also randomly selected to take OCT.
Results: In this study population, 21 (3.95%) patients had maculopathy. Eight patients had diabetes macular edema (DME) and the prevalence was 6.72% in diabetes patients and 1.51% in all subjects. Eleven patients had age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and the prevalence was 3.36% in diabetes patients and 2.07% in all subjects. Logistic regression model confirmed that elevated HbA1c ( < 0.001) and systolic pressure ( < 0.05) made significant contributions to DME. Stepwise regression analysis revealed that HbA1c and blood creatinine were significantly independent influence factors for central subfield thickness (CST) ( = 0.01, < 0.001).
Conclusions: High prevalence of maculopathy was found in patients with diabetes in a Chinese population. Maculopathy poses a significant public health problem in China with rapid rising trend of diabetes.

Objective: This study aims to investigate the associations between rs724030 A>G variant and prediabetes risk, along with their correlations with clinical features, including plasma glucose and serum insulin levels during oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), islet function, insulin resistance, and plasma lipid levels. In particular, we investigated whether there are sex dimorphisms in the impact of this variant on islet function/insulin resistance.
Methods: We included 3415 glucose-tolerant healthy and 1744 prediabetes individuals based on OGTT.

Background: The association of plasma metals on the risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) in adults with prediabetes remains poorly investigated. To assess the association between plasma metal exposure and the risk of CVD in prediabetic adults in the United States using five plasma metals.
Methods: Five cycles of data (2011-2012, 2013-2014, 2015-2016, and 2017-2018) from the NHANES were adopted in this study.

To explore in depth the characteristics of the risk factors for diabetes and prediabetes pathogenesis and progression in special regions. We investigated medical data from 160 thousand cases in the newly developing urban area of a large modern city from 2015 to 2021. After excluding the population with incomplete data, a total of 47,608 people who underwent physical examinations and blood tests were included in this study.

Objectives: The pulse pressure (PP) is an important factor influencing the outcomes of diabetes. However, the relationship between the PP and prediabetes has been rarely studied and how this association might be impacted by hypertension is not clear.
Methods: In this study, we retrospectively included 184,252 adults from 32 regions in China, spanning from 2010 to 2016.
Alpelisib is a phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitor approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of hormone receptor-positive metastatic breast cancer with (phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase catalytic subunit α) mutation. In recent years a number of adverse effects have been observed to be associated with this therapy, the most notable of which is hyperglycemia. A literature search was conducted to include case studies, case series, systematic reviews, and meta-analyses within the last 10 years that evaluated patients with mutated hormone receptor-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative metastatic breast cancer.
