Aims: Pregnancies are increasingly affected by young-onset type 2 diabetes mellitus (YT2DM), an aggressive phenotype associated with a higher vascular risk profile compared to type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). We compared pregnancy outcomes to illuminate areas where differing management guidance might be needed.
Methods: This retrospective single-centre study (2010 2019) included 259 singleton pregnancies affected by pregestational T1DM (N = 124) or YT2DM (N = 135) diagnosed at < 40 years. Primary outcomes included preterm delivery, large for gestational age (LGA) infants, and pre-eclampsia.
Results: The YT2DM cohort were older, with more obesity, greater apparent sociodemographic disadvantage, and lower measures of pregnancy preparedness. Overweight/obesity were also prevalent in the T1DM cohort (46 % affected). The second/third trimester mean HbA1c measurements were significantly higher in the T1DM cohort. Pre-eclampsia and preterm delivery rates were similar between the cohorts. Significantly lower rates of LGA infants, NICU admission, neonatal hypoglycaemia, and neonatal respiratory distress were seen in the YT2DM cohort (p < 0.05 for all).
Conclusions: In pregnancy, YT2DM appears to be the lower-risk cohort compared to T1DM despite higher obesity rates. Gaps in achieving glycaemic targets exist for both subtypes but particularly for T1DM. The relative impact of increasing BMI in pregnancies affected by T1DM requires further elucidation.

Male fertility is adversely influenced by diabetes. The beneficial effects of antioxidant bioflavonoids in improving fertility have been reported. This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of silymarin on diabetes mellitus-induced male reproductive impairment in rats by investigating its role in Hsp70 and Hsp90 expression.

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.

Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have increased hip fracture risk. And the association between urine albumin to creatinine ratio (ACR) and an increased risk of hip fracture in patients with T2DM remains controversial. This study aimed to investigate the association between urinary ACR and hip fracture risk in postmenopausal women and aged men with T2DM.
