AI Article Synopsis

  • Immunization is essential for people with diabetes, but seropositivity rates after hepatitis B vaccination are not well-known.
  • A study analyzed data from 7,645 adults to assess how glucose tolerance levels affected seropositivity rates, finding that rates decreased from normal glucose tolerance (53.64%) to abnormal (45.52%) and further to diabetes (28.84%).
  • The results indicate that those with dysregulated glucose metabolism are less likely to have a protective response to the hepatitis B vaccine, highlighting the need for regular monitoring and booster vaccinations for diabetic patients.

Article Abstract

Immunization is recommended for people with diabetes mellitus (DM), but little information is available on their seropositivity rates. To determine the impact of glucose tolerance state on seropositivity rate after hepatitis B vaccination, we included 7645 adult participants from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2005-2016 who reported three doses of hepatitis B vaccine and were seropositive for anti-hepatitis B surface antibody (≥ 12.0 mIU/mL), after exclusion of those positive for anti-hepatitis B core antibody and/or hepatitis B surface antigen. We classified the states of glucose tolerance as normal glucose tolerance (NGT, 61.68%), abnormal glucose tolerance (AGT, 26.02%), or DM (13.30%). We observed a stepwise decline in hepatitis B seropositivity rate from NGT (53.64%) to AGT (45.52%) to DM (28.84%) (P < 0.0001). We confirmed these results after standardization for age and BMI (P < 0.0001 for all subgroup analyses) and in subgroup analyses by gender and racial/ethnic group. Dysregulated glucose metabolism is associated with a decreased seropositivity rate after hepatitis B vaccination. Our observations suggest that regular follow-up screening for anti-hepatitis B surface antibody, with additional booster vaccination as necessary, is especially important in patients with DM. Whether a similar phenomenon exits for other vaccines, especially COVID-19, remains to be investigated.

Objective: Plasma metabolite profiling has uncovered several nonglycemic markers of incident type 2 diabetes (T2D). We investigated whether such biomarkers provide information about specific aspects of T2D etiology, such as impaired fasting glucose and impaired glucose tolerance, and whether their association with T2D risk varies by race.

Research Design And Methods: Untargeted plasma metabolite profiling was performed of participants in the FINRISK 2002 cohort (n = 7,564).

Importance: Metformin and glyburide monotherapy are used as alternatives to insulin in managing gestational diabetes. Whether a sequential strategy of these oral agents results in noninferior perinatal outcomes compared with insulin alone is unknown.

Objective: To test whether a treatment strategy of oral glucose-lowering agents is noninferior to insulin for prevention of large-for-gestational-age infants.

Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is a chronic autoimmune subepidermal blistering disease, affecting mostly the elderly. Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a set of metabolic disorders including obesity, hypertension, glucose intolerance, and dyslipidemia. Observational studies have revealed a correlation between BP and MetS with controversial results and the causal relationship needs to be clarified.

Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a common metabolic disorder during pregnancy characterized by glucose intolerance, which poses risks to both maternal and fetal health. Baicalein, a flavonoid derived from the roots of Georgi, exhibits various biological functions and has been implicated in the modulation of several diseases. However, the regulatory effects and underlying mechanisms of Baicalein in GDM progression remain unclear.

This study aimed to investigate the differential expression of the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (AKT) signaling pathway in relation to the Toll-like receptor (TLR)/nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) signaling pathway in an obese rat model. A total of 200 8-week-old male Wistar rats were randomly assigned to a control group (Ctrl, = 40) and an observation group (Obs, = 160), with obesity induced through a high-fat diet. Following modeling, the Obs group was further divided into a model group, a PI3K/AKT inhibition group, a TLR/NF-κB inhibition group, and a combined PI3K/AKT + TLR/NF-κB inhibition group, with 40 rats in each.
