Introduction: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a non-communicable disease that has increased from year to year. Type 2 diabetes mellitus is not caused by lack of insulin secretion, but is caused by the failure of the body's cells to respond to the hormone insulin (insulin resistance). Insulin resistance was found to be a major contributor to atherogenic dyslipidemia. Dyslipidemia in DM risks 2 to 4 times higher than non-DM. Although dyslipidemia has a great risk for people with type 2 diabetes mellitus, this conventional risk factor only explains a portion (25%) of excess cardiovascular risk in type 2 DM. Discussion: In uncontrolled type 2 DM patients, LDL oxidation occurs faster which results from an increase in chronic blood glucose levels. Glycemic control as a determinant of DM progressivity is determined through HbA1c examination. HbA1c levels are associated with blood triglyceride levels. Meanwhile, triglyceride levels are associated with total cholesterol and HDL cholesterol levels. HbA1c levels are also associated with LDL cholesterol levels. Conclusion: There is a relationship between lipid profile and the progression of type 2 diabetes mellitus.   Keywords: type 2 diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, HbA1c, glycemic control, lipid profile

The present study investigates the encapsulated propolis on blood glycemic control, lipid metabolism, and insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) rats. The animal characteristics and biological assays of body weight, fasting blood glucose (FBG), fasting serum insulin (FINS), insulin act index (IAI), triglycerides (TG), total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) were measured and euglycemic hyperinsulinemic glucose clamp technique were used to determine these effects. Our findings show that oral administration of encapsulated propolis can significantly inhibit the increasing of FBG and TG in T2DM rats and can improve IAI and M value in euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp experiment. There was no significant effects on body weight, TC, HDL-C, and LDL-C in T2DM rats treated with encapsulated propolis. In conclusion, the results indicate that encapsulated propolis can control blood glucose, modulate lipid metabolism, and improve the insulin sensitivity in T2DM rats.

The article provides a review of the literature on the possibilities of using various indices of insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes (T2DM) treatment. The main mechanisms of insulin resistance and its role in the formation of type 2 diabetes mellitus and other metabolic disorders are described. The main indices of insulin resistance, used in real clinical practice nowadays, are considered. Methods of their calculation are given. The effect of metformin and incretin active medications on insulin resistance is described. It was shown that the combination of these medications improves tissue sensitivity to insulin in patients with T2DM. Standard indicators for assessing glycemic control, such as fasting glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), do not reflect the patient’s lipid metabolism. The use of insulin resistance assessment indices in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus allows both, exercising glycemic control, and the metabolic disorders, often associated with carbohydrate metabolism disorders, monitoring. Using insulin resistance indices, it is possible to select the optimal treatment regimen for type 2 diabetes mellitus for a particular patient, to predict and evaluate the effectiveness of treatment in dynamics. Simple, generally available laboratory indicators and anthropometric data are used to calculate the indices of insulin resistance, and they are easy to measure. In this regard, the use of insulin resistance indices is possible in routine clinical practice.

Abstract Background:The pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus is due to two major abnormalities including insulin resistance and dysfunction, which lead to the inability to regulate blood glucose level. Adiponectin is a hormone secreted by the adipose tissue and it takes part in glucose metabolism with insulin-sensitising properties. Low levels of adiponectin leads to reduction of fatty acid oxidation decreased glucose uptake in skeletal muscle cells and increased level of free fatty acids leading to insulin resistance. Leptin is another adipokine produced by adipose tissue involved in the control of food intake via its action on the hypothalamus, suppressing appetite and stimulating energy expenditure. Leptin plays a critical role in pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes mellitus.The aim of the study was to investigate the association of serum adipokines levels with glycemic control and metabolic dyslipidemia in Sudanese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.Methods: This was a case control study. 202 patients with type 2 diabetes and 102 non-diabetic controls participated after signing written consent. Weight (kg) and height (m) were measured thenthe body mass index (kg/m2) was determined. Blood samples were collected after an overnight fasting. FBG, HbA1c and lipid profiles were measured using enzymatic methods. Adiponectin and leptin were measured using sandwich ELISA.Results: Adiponectin concentrations was significantly lower in patients with type 2 diabetes compared with the controls (p<0.001) and it was inversely correlated with HbA1c (Pearson Correlation -.160, P value = 0.005), total cholesterol and LDL levels (P = 0.05) and direct correlated HDL levels (P = 0.05). Leptin concentrations was significantly higher in patients with type 2 diabetes compared with the controls (p<0.002) and it was positively correlated with HbA1c (Pearson Correlation .155, P value = 0.02), total cholesterol and LDL levels (P = 0.05), there were no correlation with HDL and TG levels. Patients had significantly higher fasting blood glucose, HbA1c levels, total cholesterol and LDL levels compared with the controls. Conclusion: Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus had decreased levels of serum adiponectin, high levels of serum leptin. There were significant correlations found between adiponectin and leptin levels with glycemic control and metabolic dyslipidemia

Dietary Therapy

Introduction. Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a global public health problem. Altered dietary habits and modern lifestyle lead to obesity and insulin resistance, the main factors in the pathogenesis of this disease. Dietary Regimens for Patients with Type 2 Diabetes. There is no consensus on the most appropriate dietary therapy for glycemic control and long-term weight loss. Individualized approach, based on metabolic needs and goals of each patient, is recommended. Because of the relationship between the body mass and insulin resistance, permanent weight loss is the strategy recom?mended to obese patients with diabetes. Permanent weight loss is achieved by reducing caloric intake and increased physical activity. Issues. Although careful nutrition is an essential control element of this disease, most patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus consider dietary recommendations too restrictive and reject them, leading to poor glycemic control in over 60% of patients. The feeling of frustration and hopelessness, fear that they will be deprived of their favourite foods, fear that treatment of diabetes will negatively affect their social life, lead to escapism into forbidden foods. Potential solutions. Understanding, knowledge, attitudes and beliefs of patients about the importance of dietary regimens in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus are crucial in the new approach of education and public health policies that will support wider acceptance of dietary habits and lead to a better control of the disease. Providing more quality time between doctors and patients for better communication is part of this comprehensive approach, which is the only way to stop the global epidemic of type 2 diabetes.

Adverse Perinatal Outcomes

Objective This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of severe insulin resistance (insulin requirements ≥2 units/kg) at delivery and the relationship between severe insulin resistance, glycemic control, and adverse perinatal outcomes in pregnant women with type-2 diabetes mellitus. Study Design This is a retrospective cohort study of women with type-2 diabetes mellitus who delivered between January 2015 and December 2017 at a tertiary academic medical center. Maternal demographic information, self-monitored blood sugars, and insulin doses were abstracted from the medical record. Multivariable logistic regression was used to identify maternal baseline characteristics associated with severe insulin resistance at delivery. Results Overall 72/160 (45%) of women had severe insulin resistance. Women in the severe insulin resistance group demonstrated evidence of suboptimal glycemic control as evidenced by higher mean hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) values (7.2 [ ±  1.1] vs. 6.6 [ ±  1.3%], p = 0.003), higher mean fasting (104.0 [ ±  17.4] vs. 95.2 [ ±  11.7 mg/dL], p < 0.001) and postprandial glucose values (132.4 [ ±  17.2] vs. 121.9 [ ± 16.9 mg/dL]), p < 0.001), and a higher percentage of total glucose values that were elevated above targets (37.7 [95% confidence interval (CI): 26.8–50] vs. 25.6 [95% CI: 13.3–41.3%], p < 0.001). Maternal HbA1c ≥6.5% and insulin use prior to pregnancy were associated with a higher prevalence of severe insulin resistance, while Hispanic ethnicity and non-White race were associated with a lower prevalence of severe insulin resistance. The rates of adverse perinatal outcomes including large for gestational age (LGA) birth weight, cesarean delivery, and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy did not differ between groups. Conclusion Severe insulin resistance is common among pregnant women with type-2 diabetes, and it is associated with suboptimal glycemic control. Future studies are necessary to develop strategies to identify women with severe insulin resistance early in pregnancy and facilitate adequate insulin dosing. Key Points

Abstract Background: Although renal denervation (RDN) may theoretically be effective on type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), most clinical data failed to demonstrate such a concept. We investigated the safety and primary effects of catheter-based endovascular denervation (EDN) at new sites of the celiac artery (CA), and the abdominal aorta around CA using a novel multi-electrode device on glycemic control in T2DM patients. Methods: With a novel six-electrode catheter system, EDN was conducted in T2DM patients at new sites of CA and aorta between CA and superior mesenteric artery (SMA) in purpose of targeting on the postganglionic efferent nerves innervating the liver, islet, and other metabolic organs. The major inclusion criteria were T2DM patients diagnosed over 5 years, with hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) over 7.5%. The primary outcomes were evaluated by the safety, HbA1c, homeostasis-model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), fasting plasma glucose (FPG), 2-hour postprandial plasma glucose (2hPG), and oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) based 3-hour C-peptide test. The antidiabetic medication, lifestyle, physical condition, blood pressure (BP), plasma norepinephrine, angiotensin II, liver biochemistry, and plasma lipids were also recorded.Results: A total of 11 patients were included for analysis. The technical success was 100% and no severe treatment-related adverse events or major complications were observed. Both HbA1c and HOMA-IR significantly reduced at 6 months (9.9 vs. 8.0, P = 0.005; 13.3 vs. 6.0, P = 0.016, respectively). Decreases of FPG and 2hPG were observed (15.4 vs.10.1 mmol/L, P < 0.001; 17.9 vs. 11.4 mmol/L, P = 0.001, respectively). OGTT based C-peptide test indicated improved beta-cell function ([AUC] 0.23 vs. 0.28 pmol/mL, P =0.046). A reduction of daily insulin injection (P = 0.02) and improvement of liver function (ALT, P = 0.014; GGT, P = 0.021) were also observed without changes in lifestyle, physical conditions, and other metabolic measurements.Conclusions: The 6-month analysis of this trial showed that EDN at new sites of CA and the abdominal aorta around celiac artery using the novel six-electrode catheter system elicits a clinically significant improvement in glycemic control and insulin resistance in patients with T2DM, with good tolerability. Trial Registration Number NCT 04086043, dated 11/9/2019.
