This study aimed to evaluate the association of TCs (triclosan (TCS) and triclocarban) exposure with T2DM and glucose metabolism-related indicators and the mediating effect of methylation on their associations. A total of 956 participants (330 T2DM and 626 controls) were included in this case-control study. Logistic regression and generalized linear models were used to assess the effect of TCs on T2DM and glucose metabolism-related indicators. The dose-response relationship between TCs and T2DM was analyzed by restricted cubic spline. Finally, after evaluating the association between TCs and methylation levels, the mediating effect of methylation on the TC-associated T2DM was estimated. Each 1-unit increase in TCS levels was associated with a 13.2% increase in the risk of T2DM (OR = 1.132, 95% CI: 1.062, 1.207). A linear dose-response relationship was found between TCS and T2DM. TCS was negatively associated with methylation. Moreover, mediation analysis revealed that methylation mediated 14.54% of the relationship between TCS exposure and T2DM. Exposure to TCS was associated with a higher prevalence of T2DM. methylation partially mediated the association of TCS with T2DM. Our findings may provide new insights into the treatment of T2DM, and the study of the biological mechanisms of T2DM.

Aim: This work aims to evaluate the relationship between the fear of hypoglycaemia, treatment adherence, and the quality of life in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and its determinants.
Methods: This descriptive and cross-sectional study sample recruited 1060 T2DM outpatients in a health centre between January and July 2022. The Hypoglycemia Fear Survey (HFS), Type 2 DM Treatment Patient Compliance Scale, and the 5-Level EuroQol 5-Dimension (EQ-5D-5L) were used for data collection.

Background: There has been increasing interest in the concept that exposure to environmental chemicals may be contributing factors to epidemics of diabetes mellitus (DM). Triclocarban and triclosan (TCs) are synthetic antibacterial chemicals that are widely used in personal care products. Studies have shown that TCs are endocrine disruptors that alter metabolic conditions.

Purpose The purpose of this study was to determine if the use of both the Talking Circles (TCs) and diabetes self-management education (DSME) results in better adherence and outcomes for diabetes self-management than DSME alone in American Indians (AIs) with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods A quasiexperimental, mixed-methods approach was used for AIs with uncontrolled T2DM, defined by an A1C > 7.0%.
