Background: Sodium glucose co-transporter type 2 inhibitors (iSGLT2) are antihyperglycemic drugs approved for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Clinical trials with these drugs have shown evidence of an increased risk of fractures and an effect on phosphorus, vitamin D and parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels.Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of the most selective iSGLT2 empagliflozin on the calcium and phosphorus metabolism in patients with T2DM and preserved kidney function.Materials and methods: Thirty-nine T2DM patients were received empagliflozin 10 mg in addition to their antihyperglycemic drugs for 12 weeks. Before starting treatment, a dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) with an assessment of the trabecular bone score (TBS) was performed. The concentration of phosphorus (P), total (tCa) and ionized calcium (Ca++), fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23), 25(OH)D and PTH were assessed.Results: According to the DXA results, only 2 patients had osteoporosis, 10 (25.6%) patients had bone mineral density (BMD) values below 1.35 g /cm2 on the TCI scale. Treatment with empagliflozin for 12 weeks was lead to significant increase in FGF-23. Compared to the baseline level, there were no statistically significant differences in the concentrations of P, oCa, Ca++, PTH and 25(OH)D after 12 weeks of treatment. The level of FGF-23 did not correlate with the level of glomerular filtration rate either before or after treatment (r = 0.31, p = 0.27 and r = 0.39, p = 0.55, respectively). In addition, baseline BMD adjusted for TBS and baseline 25(OH)D did not correlate with Ca, F, FGF-23, and PTH concentrations (p>0.05).Conclusion: Thus, empagliflozin has increased the level of FGF-23 without significant changes in the concentration of phosphorus, calcium, 25 (OH) D, and PTH after 12 weeks of treatment in patients with T2DM and preserved renal function. The obtained data confirmed the necessity to assess the TBS in patients with T2DM, because it’s provide additional information on the quality of bone tissue.

Background: When compared to people without type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), people with T2DM have an increase in fracture risk despite having higher bone mineral density (BMD). Many studies in Caucasians demonstrated that trabecular bone score (TBS) is lower in people with T2DM than those without. The utility of TBS as a fracture risk assessment tool in Asians with T2DM is currently unclear. Objective: To compared lumbar spine (LS) BMD and TBS in Thais with or without T2DM and investigate the correlation between TBS and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and diabetes duration in participants with T2DM. Materials and Methods: The present study was a cross-sectional study that included 97 participants with T2DM (37 men and 60 women) and 342 participants without T2DM (174 men and 168 women). LS-BMD and TBS were obtained. Results: Men and women with T2DM were older and had higher body mass index (BMI). Men with T2DM had significant higher LS-BMD (1.051±0.166 versus 0.972±0.125, p=0.009) and non-significant lower TBS (1.333±0.084 versus 1.365±0.096, p=0.055) than those without. Similarly, women with T2DM had significant higher LS-BMD (0.995±0.155 versus 0.949±0.124, p=0.021) and lower TBS (1.292±0.105 versus 1.382±0.096, p<0.001). After adjusting for age and BMI, T2DM predicted higher BMD in men (p<0.001), but not in women (p=0.143). T2DM was not associated with TBS after adjusting for age and BMI in both genders (p=0.403 and p=0.151 in men and women, respectively). TBS did not correlate with HbA1c in both genders. However, TBS was non-significantly associated with diabetes duration in women (p=0.073), but not in men (p=0.639). Conclusion: T2DM significantly predicted higher LS-BMD only in men and was not independently associated with TBS in both genders. These data highlighted that, in T2DM, there was some variation in the clinical usefulness of BMD and TBS in predicting osteoporotic fractures with regard to clinical characteristic of participants.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and osteoporosis are chronic diseases with increasing prevalence. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of osteoporosis and osteoporotic fracture in women with T2DM and to identify predictive factors of fracture occurrence. The prevalence of osteoporosis and fractures in postmenopausal women with T2DM was 23.1% and 16.9%, respectively. 46.2% of T2DM patients had normal bone mineral density (BMD) (P<0.01) and 58.5% of control subjects had osteopenia (P<0.01). Incidence of fracture in T2DM patients with osteopenia was significantly increased versus control subjects when stratified according the BMD (P=0.009). By stratifying T2DM patients according to fractures, factors that were significantly associated with occurrence included T2DM duration (P=0.038), use of insulin (P=0.017), and lower BMD (P=0.048). Our study suggests that there was a higher prevalence of fracture in T2DM patients compared to control subjects and a significant difference in BMD was found between the groups. We also showed that insulin use, low BMD, and long duration of T2DM are factors associated with an increased risk of bone fracture.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is one of the most common chronic diseases worldwide and it is associated with an increased risk of osteoporosis and fragility fractures. Our aim is to analyze the effect of T2DM on bone quality. This is a case-control study. The studied population consisted of 140 patients: 54 subjects with hip fracture (OP) without T2DM, 36 patients with hip fracture and T2DM (OP-T2DM), 28 patients with osteoarthritis (OA) without T2DM, and 22 patients with OA and T2DM (OA-T2DM). Bone markers, bone mineral density, FRAX score, microstructural, and bone material strength from femoral heads were assessed. The group with hip fracture presented lower BMD values than OA (p < 0.05). The OP, OP-T2DM, and OA-T2DM groups showed a decrease in bone volume fraction (BV/TV), in trabecular number (Tb.N), and in trabecular thickness (Tb.Th), while an increase was presented in the structural model index (SMI) and trabecular bone pattern factor (Tb.Pf), The groups OP, OP-T2DM, and OA-T2DM also presented lower values than those in group OA regarding the biomechanical parameters in the form of Young’s modulus or elastic modulus, toughness, ultimate stress, ultimate load, extrinsic stiffness, and work to failure (p < 0.05). Our results show the negative effect of type 2 diabetes mellitus on trabecular bone structure and mechanical properties.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is associated with higher fracture risk but, better bone mineral density (BMD). Alteration of the skeletal material or microstructure may be an underlying mechanism for the discrepancy between BMD and fracture risk in diabetes. The trabecular bone score has been proposed as an indirect measurement of bone microarchitecture with the routine dual energy absorptiometry.  We present a clinical case of diagnosis and treatment of osteoporosis associated with T2DM in patient with a low-trauma fracture and concomitant endocrine disorder.

Background: Patients (pts) with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are at increased risk of heart failure (HF); however, the underlying mechanisms by which T2DM contributes to HF are incompletely understood. Hypothesis: We aimed to identify biological pathways associated with risk of hospitalization for HF (HHF) in a well-characterized cohort with T2DM followed for a median of 4.2 yrs. Methods: DECLARE-TIMI 58 was a randomized trial of dapagliflozin in pts with T2DM. We performed a nested case-control study of 184 candidate biomarkers (Olink CV II and CV III) in pts hospitalized for HF (n=432) and controls matched on age, sex, prior HF, prior CV disease, and f/u time (n=432). We evaluated associations between baseline biomarkers and HHF using logistic regression with a stringent threshold for significance (Bonferroni). Biomarkers were ranked according to Wald χ 2 values. ORs for the top 10 biomarkers were further adjusted for the components of the TIMI Risk Score for HF in Diabetes (AF, UACR, eGFR, CAD). ORs are per 1-SD. Results: 45 biomarkers were significantly associated with HHF. The 10 strongest associations were seen with N-terminal pro-B type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), B type natriuretic peptide (BNP), spondin-1 (SPON1), insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 7 (IGFBP7), interleukin-6 (IL-6), fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF-23), transferrin receptor protein 1 (TR), metalloproteinase inhibitor 4 (TIMP4), matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2), C-X-C motif chemokine 16 (CXCL16) ( Fig ). All 10 biomarkers were significantly associated with HHF both in pts with and without a history of HF. These proteins represent pathobiological axes implicated in hemodynamic stress, inflammation, myocardial hypertrophy, and cellular senescence, among others. Conclusions: A targeted proteomic approach identified established (NT-proBNP, BNP), investigational (IGFBP7, FGF-23, IL-6, TR, TIMP4, MMP-2, CXCL16), and novel (SPON1) biomarkers of HHF in pts with T2DM.

The prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is increasing worldwide, especially as a result of our aging society, high caloric intake and sedentary lifestyle. Besides the well-known complications of T2DM on the cardiovascular system, the eyes, kidneys and nerves, bone strength is also impaired in diabetic patients. Patients with T2DM have a 40–70% increased risk for fractures, despite having a normal to increased bone mineral density, suggesting that other factors besides bone quantity must account for increased bone fragility. This review summarizes the current knowledge on the complex effects of T2DM on bone including effects on bone cells, bone material properties and other endocrine systems that subsequently affect bone, discusses the effects of T2DM medications on bone and concludes with a model identifying factors that may contribute to poor bone quality and increased bone fragility in T2DM.

Background:Studies pertaining to association of GSTM1 and GSTT1 null genotypes with risk of T2DM and its complications were often inconclusive, thus spurring the present study.Methods:Meta-analysis of 25 studies for evaluating the role of GSTM1/GSTT1 null polymorphisms in determining the risk for T2DM and 17 studies for evaluating the role of GSTM1/GSTT1 null polymorphisms in development of T2DM related complications were conducted.Results:Our study revealed an association between GSTM1 and GSTT1 null polymorphism with T2DM (GSTM1; OR=1.37;95% CI =1.10-1.70 and GSTT1; OR=1.29;95% CI =1.04-1.61) with an amplified risk of 2.02 fold for combined GSTM1-GSTT1 null genotypes. Furthermore, the GSTT1 null (OR=1.56;95%CI=1.38-1.77) and combined GSTM1-GSTT1 null genotypes (OR=1.91;95%CI=1.25- 2.94) increased the risk for development of T2DM related complications, but not the GSTM1 null genotype. Stratified analyses based on ethnicity revealed GSTM1 and GSTT1 null genotypes increase the risk for T2DM in both Caucasians and Asians, with Asians showing much higher risk of T2DM complications than Caucasians for the same. </P><P> Discussion: GSTM1, GSTT1 and combined GSTM1-GSTT1 null polymorphism may be associated with increased risk for T2DM; while GSTT1 and combined GSTM1-GSTT1 null polymorphism may increase the risk of subsequent development of T2DM complications with Asian population carrying an amplified risk for the polymorphism.Conclusion:Thus GSTM1 and GSTT1 null genotypes increases the risk for Type 2 diabetes mellitus alone, in combination or with regards to ethnicity.
