Objectives: Flash glucose monitoring in patients with type 1 diabetes provides new glucometric data that allow for the assessment of glycemic control beyond HbA. The objective of the study was to evaluate the relationship between HbA, time-in-range (TIR) and glycemic variability in a cohort of paediatric and adult patients with type 1 diabetes and treatment with flash glucose monitoring.

Material And Methods: This was a cross-sectional study in 195 patients with type 1 diabetes (42.6% females, 70 paediatric, 26.2% continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion, 28.7% coefficient of variation [CV]≤36%) in intensive treatment and flash glucose monitoring. Clinical, analytical and glucometric data were evaluated.

Results: The relationship between the TIR and HbA showed a strong negative linear correlation (R=-0.746; R=0.557; P<.001), modified in those patients with CV≤36% (R=-0.852; R=0.836) compared to CV>36% (R=-0.703; R=0.551). A similar correlation was found when evaluating the TIR and the Glucose Management Indicator (R=-0.846; R=0.715; P<.001); in patients with CV≤36% (R=-0.980; R=0.960) versus CV>36% (R=-0.837; R=0.701); P<.001. Both correlations remained stable in the paediatric population (R=-0.724; R=0.525; P<.001) and adults (R=-0.706; R=0.498; P<.001) and by type of treatment: multiple doses of insulin (R=-0.747; R=0.558; P<.001) and continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (R=-0.711; R=0.506; P<.001). In a multiple regression analysis evaluating HbA as dependent variable, the only parameters that maintained statistical significance were the TIR (β=-0,031; P<.001), CV (β=0.843; P<.05) and TIR-CV interaction (β=-0.017; P<.01).

Conclusions: The glycemic variability defined by the CV modifies the relationship between the TIR and HbA/Glucose Management Indicator and should be taken into account when individualising TIR targets, regardless of age or the type of treatment used.

Background: Epidermal growth factor receptor 4 (ERBB4) and neuregulin 4 (NRG4) have been shown to reduce steatosis and prevent the development of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis in mouse models, but little to nothing is known about their role in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in humans. This study is the first to investigate the expression of and mRNAs and their role in lipid metabolism in the livers of individuals with obesity, type 2 diabetes and biopsy-proven NAFLD.

Methods: Liver biospecimens were obtained intraoperatively from 80 individuals.

Background: Recently, there has been a surge in virtual reality (VR)-based training for upper limb (UL) rehabilitation, which has yielded mixed results. Therefore, we aimed to explore the effects of conventional therapy combined with VR-based training on UL dysfunction during post-stroke rehabilitation.

Methods: Studies published in English before May 2023 were retrieved from PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library.

Objective: This study compared the value of different systemic immune-inflammatory markers for evaluating coronary collateralization (CC) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and chronic total occlusion (CTO).

Methods: Systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) and pan-immune-inflammation value (PIV) were calculated at admission in 1409 T2DM patients with CTO. The degree of coronary collaterals was estimated using the Rentrop scoring system and categorized into poor (Rentrop score 0 or 1) or good (Rentrop score 2 or 3) CC.
