Background: Metabolic syndrome (MS) is characterized by a constellation of metabolic disorders. Hyperglycemia and dyslipidemia are the major risk factors of MS. Here we performed a study to explore the association between glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) subclasses in patients with MS.
Methods: We included 101 MS patients and 77 healthy subjects in this study. Blood tests were executed to assess the blood glucose and lipid indicators, including HbA1c, fasting plasma glucose (FPG), triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), apolipoprotein B100 (apoB100), preβ1-HDL, HDL3b, apoB100/AI, apolipoprotein AI (apoAI), HDL2b and HDL2a. Multivariate linear regression was used to explore potential relationship between HDL subclasses and HbA1c.
Results: Compared with control group, the levels of HbA1c, FPG, TG, TC, LDL-C, apoB100, preβ1-HDL, HDL3b, apoB100/AI and LDL-C/HDL-C were significantly increased in MS subjects (p < 0.01), while plasma concentrations of HDL-C, apoAI, HDL2b and HDL2a were significantly decreased in MS subjects (p < 0.01). With the increase of whole blood HbA1c levels in MS subjects, preβ1-HDL was elevated gradually, while HDL2a was decreased gradually.
Conclusions: Blood HbA1c level is associated with the changes in HDL subclass distribution in patients with MS.

Identifying dependable prognostic indicators is essential for the efficient management of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). The index of hemoglobin glycation (HGI) has been demonstrated to be closely linked to the onset and advancement of MASLD. Currently, no studies have investigated the relationship between HGI and mortality rates among MASLD patients.

The management of Type-2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) remains challenging in cases of poor glycemic control despite triple Oral Hypoglycemic Agent (OHA) therapy. This prospective cohort study aimed to assess the effectiveness of Empagliflozin as part of a quadruple OHA regimen over a 7-year follow-up period in 575 adult patients with uncontrolled T2DM on a triple OHA regimen and who were unwilling to initiate insulin therapy. Overall, 92.

Introduction: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a major burden on public health worldwide. To reduce adverse events and complications, effective T2DM self-management is required. Self-management and glycaemic control are generally poorer in lower educated people compared with higher educated people.

Summary: Palmoplantar keratoderma (PPK), characterised by excessive epidermal thickening of the skin on the palms and/or plantar surfaces of the feet, can be hereditary or acquired. Here, we report a case of a 53-year-old woman with a history of sub-optimally controlled diabetes mellitus presenting with fevers and decreased Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) to a tertiary hospital. She was diagnosed with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), with blood glucose at 40 mmol/L and ketones at 7 mmol/L, in the setting of a methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus necrotising soft tissue back infection.
