Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) predisposes patients to acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and acute heart failure (AHF).
Aims: To assess correlates of AHF occurring at the early stage of AMI and synergism between early AHF and DM on 5-year mortality.
Methods: FAST-MI 2005 and 2010 included 7839 consecutive patients admitted for AMI.
Results: Overall, 2151 patients (27.4%) had a history of diabetes mellitus (DM), of whom 629 (29.2%) were on insulin. Patients with versus without DM were older (mean age: 70.0 vs. 64.7years; P<0.001), with more comorbidities and more severe coronary artery disease. Early AHF (pulmonary oedema or cardiogenic shock) was the most frequent in-hospital complication (12.5%) and was twice as frequent in patients with versus without DM (20.2% vs. 9.6%; adjusted odds ratio: 1.66, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.43-1.94; P<0.001). Among in-hospital survivors, patients with DM without AHF and those with AHF without DM had 50% increases in 5-year mortality (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR]: 1.50, 95% CI: 1.32-1.69 and aHR: 1.46, 95% CI: 1.23-1.74; both P<0.001) versus patients without DM or AHF; with the risk among those with DM and AHF being doubled (aHR: 1.97, 95% CI: 1.66-2.34; P<0.0001).
Conclusion: Early AHF is the most frequent complication of AMI and is twice as common in patients with versus without DM. After adjustment, early AHF and DM are associated with reduced 5-year survival with synergistic effects in patients with both conditions.

Diabetic Neuropathy (DN) is a widespread and severely debilitating consequence of diabetes mellitus that impairs function, causes discomfort, and damages peripheral nerves. Numerous molecular pathways are involved in the pathogenesis of DN, including cyclooxygenase, polyol, protein kinase C, and inflammatory pathways. These molecular pathways may be responsible for the mechanism behind the onset and development of DN.

Aim: To identify the barriers and enablers in the implementation of evidence-based physical activity (PA) programmes for the improvement of health outcomes among pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), and to develop strategies for implementing this evidence in clinical practice.
Methods: A convergent mixed-methods study was conducted, integrating a descriptive qualitative research design with a cross-sectional survey. In-depth interview was used to collect the views and cognitions about physical activity from medical staff, leaders and pregnant women.

Parkinson's disease (PD), a chronic and common neurodegenerative disease, is characterized by the progressive loss of dopaminergic neurons in the dense part of the substantia nigra and abnormal aggregation of alpha-synuclein. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a metabolic disease characterized by chronic insulin resistance and deficiency in insulin secretion. Extensive evidence has confirmed shared pathogenic mechanisms underlying PD and T2DM, such as oxidative stress caused by insulin resistance, mitochondrial dysfunction, inflammation, and disorders of energy metabolism.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by the accumulation of amyloid-β (Aβ) plaques and the aggregation of tau protein, resulting in intense memory loss and dementia. Diabetes-associated cognitive dysfunction (DACD) is a complication of diabetes mellitus, which is associated with decreased cognitive function and impaired memory. A growing body of literature emphasize the involvement of microglia in AD and DACD.
