Aim: To compare clinical and pathological characteristics as well as prognosis between diabetic nephropathy (DN) and non-diabetic renal disease (NDRD) so as to explore potential diagnostic criteria of DN and provide some guidance for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients with kidney involvement.
Methods: T2DM patients with renal impairment who underwent kidney biopsy were included in this study, who were classified into 3 groups (DN, NDRD, DN with NDRD) based on their renal pathological diagnosis. Baseline clinical characteristics as well as follow-up data were collected and analyzed among 3 groups. Logistic regression was performed to determine the best predictors for DN diagnosis. Additional 34 MN patients without diabetes were enrolled by propensity score matching method to compare serum PLA2R antibody titer and kidney outcomes between diabetic MN patients and MN alone.
Results: Among 365 patients with type 2 diabetes who underwent kidney biopsy, 179 (49.0%) patients were diagnosed with NDRD alone and 37 (10.1%) patients with NDRD combined DN. Risk factors for DN development in T2DM patients were longer time since diabetes diagnosis, higher level of serum creatinine, absence of hematuria and presence of diabetic retinopathy by multivariate analysis. Lower rate of proteinuria remission and higher risk of renal progression were observed in DN group compared with NDRD group. Membranous nephropathy was the most common NDRD in diabetic patients. There was no difference in serum PLA2R antibody positiveness or titer between MN patients with or without T2DM. There was lower remission rate but similar renal progression in diabetic MN when age, gender, baseline eGFR, albuminuria and IFTA score were adjusted.
Conclusions: Non-diabetic renal disease is not uncommon in T2DM patients with renal impairment, which has better prognosis with proper treatment. Coexisting diabetic status does not exert negative impact on renal progression in MN patients, and immunosuppressive agents should be administered when necessary.

Background: The Weight-adjusted-waist index (WWI) has emerged as a predictive factor for a range of metabolic disorders. To date, the predictive value of the WWI in relation to sarcopenia in individuals with diabetics has not been extensively explored. This study aims to investigate the impact of the WWI on the prevalence of sarcopenia among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).

We investigated clinical factors and biochemical markers associated with amygdalar metabolic activity evaluated by [F]-fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) in 346 subjects without a history of malignant neoplasms. Univariate regression analysis revealed significant relationships between amygdalar metabolic activity and fasting plasma glucose (FPG), glycated hemoglobin, coronary artery disease (CAD) history, aspirin use, oral hypoglycemic agents (OHAs) use, and asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA). In multiple stepwise regression analysis, FPG and CAD history were independently associated with amygdalar metabolic activity.

Objectives: It is essential to manage type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) through self-care behaviours and to ascertain the predictors of correct health training for the control of diabetes. The aim of this study was to determine the predictive role of the constructs of the health belief model in encouraging T2DM to adopt self-care behaviours in Bandar Abbas city.
Design: This cross-sectional study was conducted in 2022 in Bandar Abbas.

Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) are emerging as an important class of drugs in the management of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) and obesity. There are rising concerns of pulmonary aspiration with these medications due to drug-induced gastroparesis. While definitive association is uncertain, it is essential to be prudent and manage these patients as per the current evidence and recommendations.

Diabetes is a chronic lifelong condition that requires consistent self-care and daily lifestyle adjustments. Effective disease management involves regular blood glucose monitoring and ongoing nursing support. Inadequate education and poor self-management are key factors contributing to increased mortality among diabetic individuals.
