Background:Multicultural societies exist worldwide. Two important challenges can be appreciated in this scenario. Minority populations, due to a combination of genetic and lifestyle factors, have a particularly high risk for developing type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). In addition, the quality of health care provided to minority populations, including that for DM, has lagged behind that provided to the white population. Because multiple medical, social, and cultural factors influence the development and progression of type 2 DM, management of patients becomes even more challenging if health care providers cannot identify and address the many contributing factors.Objective:The objective of this article was to raise awareness about the most common social and cultural factors that may influence the development of type 2 DM, progression of the disease, and adherence to treatment plans in patients from culturally diverse populations.Methods:A PubMed search of English-language articles published primarily between 1996 and 2006 was conductedusing the search terms Latino, Hispanic, culture, and diabetes, and a list of social and cultural factors associated with type 2 DM was created based on relevant articles and on the author's expertise and experience in the Latino Diabetes Initiative at the Joslin Diabetes Center.Results:There is increasing evidence that social and cultural factors such as body image, educational level, fears, general family integration and support, health literary, language, myths, and nutritional preferences, among others, may affect the success of the physician patient relationship and influence patients' adherence to treatment. Specific strategies to help clinicians remember to address multiple factors in the day-to-day management of patients with type 2 DM who are from culturally diverse populations include asking questions about patients' personal goals, ascertaining what behaviors they have adopted from mainstream culture, understanding how family ties may affect DM care and prevention, and being aware of patients' educational level when implementing any educational activity.Conclusions:The standards of DM care apply to every individual with this disease and should continue to be the core of every clinicians practice. However, improving health care providers' cultural competence may help improve the quality of care provided to minority groups and may ultimately reduce health care disparities. Increased cultural competence may also improve patient-provider trust and communication, as well as help patients adhere to prevention and treatment plans. 相似文献

Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) is appearing in adults at an epidemic rate. Primary care clinicians will, out of necessity, provide diabetes care for most patients with type 2 DM. A systematic care plan will contribute to effective and cost-efficient management of the increasing number of diabetic patients presenting in the primary care setting.Objectives: The aims of this article were to review the consensus algorithm developed by the American Diabetes Association and the European Association for the Study of Diabetes (ADA/EASD) for the treatment of type 2 DM and to increase awareness of this document within the community that is most likely to manage patients with type 2 DM.Methods: Research was focused on the value of the consensus algorithm to primary care practitioners for the management of patients with type 2 DM.Results: Research revealed 4 aspects of the algorithm involving use of medications (including insulin) and measurement of glycosylated hemoglobin levels that would help health care providers construct a systematic and workable plan for aggressive treatment of type 2 DM.Conclusions: The 4 issues raised within the ADA/EASD consensus algorithm have a significant impact on primary care practitioners and challenge usual practices in the care of patients with type 2 DM. 相似文献

Objective: Clinical inertia is defined as failure to initiate or intensify therapy despite an inadequate treatment response. We assessed the prevalence and identified the predictors of clinical inertia among patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) based on personalized goals.Methods: Three hemoglobin A1c (A1C) targets (American Diabetes Association A1C <7.0%; modified Ismail-Beigi et al; and Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set) were used when identifying adult patients with T2DM who experienced above-target A1C values during the index period (July 1, 2008 to June 30, 2012) in a U.S. managed-care claims database (IMPACT™). Clinical inertia was defined as no intensification of treatment during the response period. Demographic and clinical characteristics were analyzed to identify predictors of treatment intensification.Results: Irrespective of A1C target, the majority of patients with T2DM (70.4 to 72.8%) experienced clinical inertia in the 6 months following the index event, with 5.3 to 6.2% of patients intensifying treatment with insulin. Patients with a lower likelihood of intensification were older, used >1 oral antidiabetes drug during the baseline period, and had an above-target A1C more recently. Treatment intensification was associated with patients who had point-of-service insurance, mental illness, an endocrinologist visit in the baseline period, or higher index A1C.Conclusion: The prevalence of clinical inertia among patients with T2DM in a U.S. managed-care setting is high and has increased over more recent years. Factors predicting increased risk of clinical inertia may help identify “at-risk” populations and assist in developing strategies to improve their management.Abbreviations:A1C = hemoglobin A1cADA = American Diabetes AssociationCCI = Charlson Comorbidity IndexGLP-1 = glucagon-like peptide 1HEDIS = Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information SetICD-9-CM = International Classification of Diseases, 9th Revision, Clinical ModificationOAD = oral antidiabetes drugPCPs = primary care physiciansT2DM = type 2 diabetes mellitus 相似文献

Objective: De-intensification of diabetes treatment is recommended in elderly patients with tight glycemic control at high risk of hypoglycemia. However, rates of de-intensification in endocrine practice are unknown. We conducted a retrospective study to evaluate the rate of de-intensification of antidiabetic treatment in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and tight glycemic control.Methods: All patients with ≥2 clinic visits over a 1-year period at a major academic diabetes center were included. De-intensification of diabetes treatment was defined as a decrease or discontinuation of any antidiabetic drug without adding another drug, or a reduction in the total daily dose of insulin or a sulfonylurea drug with or without adding a drug without risk of hypoglycemia.Results: Out of 3,186 unique patients, 492 were ≥65 years old with T2DM and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) <7.5% (<58 mmol/mol). We found 308 patients treated with a sulfonylurea drug or insulin, 102 of whom had hypoglycemia as per physician note. Among these 102 patients, 38 (37%) were advised to de-intensify therapy. In a subgroup analysis of patients ≥75 years old with HbA1c <7% (<53 mmol/mol), we found that out of 23 patients treated with a sulfonylurea drug or insulin and reporting hypoglycemia, 11 (43%) were advised de-intensification of therapy. There were no significant predictors of de-intensification of treatment.Conclusion: Our study suggests that de-intensification of antidiabetic medications is uncommon in elderly patients with T2DM. Strategies may need to be developed to prevent the potential harm of overtreatment in this population.Abbreviations: ADA = American Diabetes Association; CGM = continuous glucose monitoring; HbA1c = hemoglobin A1c; T2DM = type 2 diabetes mellitus; UKPDS = United Kingdom Prospective Diabetes Study 相似文献

Objective: To determine the relationship between family history of diabetes mellitus (DM) and diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) recurrence in youth with established type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM).Methods: We performed a retrospective chart review of patients with DKA admitted to a pediatric hospital between January, 2009, and December, 2014. We compared patients with recurrent (≥2 admissions) and nonrecurrent DKA (1 admission) and investigated patient level factors, including family history, that may be associated with DKA recurrence in pediatric patients with established T1DM.Results: Of the 131 subjects in the study, 51 (39%) subjects were in the recurrence group. Age ≥15 years old, public health insurance, and family history of T1DM or type 2 diabetes mellitus were associated with recurrent DKA admissions in both univariable and multivariable analyses. Family history was associated with DKA recurrence, with an incidence rate ratio of 1.5 (95% confidence interval = 1.0 to 2.3; P = .03). The association was not explained by type of familial diabetes, first degree relative status, or whether the family member lived in the household.Conclusion: Recognition that a positive family history of DM may be associated with a higher risk for DKA recurrence in patients with established T1DM may allow for targeted education and focus on a previously unidentified population at increased risk for DKA. Understanding the mechanism underlying the effect of family history of diabetes on the rates of DKA in patients with established T1DM may allow for improved identification and education of patients who may be at risk for DKA recurrence.Abbreviations: CI = confidence interval; DKA = diabetic ketoacidosis; EHR = electronic health record; IBD = inflammatory bowel disease; IRR = incidence rate ratio; T1DM = type 1 diabetes mellitus; T2DM = type 2 diabetes mellitus 相似文献

Objective: Following the first Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval in 2013, sodium glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors have generated much interest among physicians treating patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Here, the role in treatment with this drug class is considered in the context of T2DM treatment paradigms.Methods: The clinical trials for the SGLT2 inhibitors are examined with a focus on canagliflozin, dapagliflozin, and empagliflozin.Results: Evidence from clinical trials in patients with T2DM supports the use of SGLT2 inhibitors either as monotherapy or in addition to other glucose-lowering treatments as adjuncts to diet and exercise, and we have gained significant clinical experience in a relatively short time.Conclusion: The drugs appear to be useful in a variety of T2DM populations, contingent primarily on renal function. Most obviously, SGLT2 inhibitors appear to be well suited for patients with potential for hypoglycemia or weight gain. In clinical trials, patients treated with SGLT2 inhibitors have experienced moderate weight loss and a low risk of hypoglycemic events except when used in combination with an insulin secretagogue. In addition, SGLT2 inhibitors have been shown to reduce blood pressure, so they may be beneficial in patients with T2DM complicated by hypertension. SGLT2 inhibitors were incorporated into the 2015 American Diabetes Association (ADA)/European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) position statement on the management of hyperglycemia and received an even more prominent position in the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists (AACE)/American College of Endocrinology (ACE) comprehensive diabetes management guidelines and algorithm.Abbreviations: AE = adverse event A1C = glycated hemoglobin CI = confidence interval CKD = chronic kidney disease DKA = diabetic ketoacidosis DPP-4 = dipeptidyl peptidase 4 eGFR = estimated glomerular filtration rate FDA = Food and Drug Administration FPG = fasting plasma glucose GLP-1 = glucagon-like peptide 1 HDL-C = high-density lipoprotein cholesterol HR = hazard ratio LADA = late-onset autoimmune diabetes of adulthood LDL-C = low-density lipoprotein cholesterol MACE = major adverse cardiovascular events SGLT1 = sodium glucose cotransporter 1 SGLT2 = sodium glucose cotransporter 2 T1DM = type 1 diabetes mellitus T2DM = type 2 diabetes mellitus UACR = urine albumin to creatinine ratio 相似文献

Objective: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a risk factor for pancreatic cancer but its prognostic impact remains controversial. We aimed to investigate the association between long-standing DM and the risk of mortality.Methods: This population-based cohort study analyzed data from the national healthcare database in Taiwan. We identified all patients diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and excluded those who were diagnosed with DM with-in 2 years of the cancer diagnosis. Eligible patients were grouped into long-standing DM (>2 years) and nondiabetic controls, and were compared for overall survival using a Cox proportional hazard model. Sensitivity tests stratified by cancer stages (as indicated by specific treatment) were performed.Results: Patients with long-standing DM were significantly older (mean age, 71.38 years versus 66.0 years; P<.0001) and had a higher Charlson comorbidity index (9.53 versus 6.78; P<.0001) and diabetes comorbidity severity index (2.38 versus 0.82; P<.0001) compared with the non-DM controls. Although the unadjusted analysis showed a higher risk of mortality in the patients with long-term DM (crude hazard ratio [HR], 1.26; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.20 to 1.33; P<.0001), the association became insignificant after adjustment for age, sex, and comorbidity index (adjusted HR, 1.01; 95% CI, 0.95 to 1.06, P = .84). Subgroup analyses also showed no association between long-term DM and mortality in various subgroups stratified by cancer treatment.Conclusion: After adjusting for associated comorbidities and complications, long-standing DM per se was not an independent prognostic factor for overall survival in this nationwide population-based cohort with pancreatic cancer.Abbreviations: CCI = Charlson Comorbidity Index; CI = confidence interval; DCSI = Diabetes Complication Severity Index; DM = diabetes mellitus; HR = hazard ratio; ICD = International Classification of Diseases; NHIRD = National Health Insurance Research Database; RCIPD = Registry for Catastrophic Illness Patient Database 相似文献

Objective: Treatment of hyperglycemia with insulin is associated with increased risk of hypoglycemia in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients receiving total parenteral nutrition (TPN). The aim of this study was to determine the predictors of hypoglycemia in hospitalized T2DM patients receiving TPN.Methods: Post hoc analysis of the INSUPAR study, which is a prospective, open-label, multicenter clinical trial of adult inpatients with T2DM in a noncritical setting with indication for TPN.Results: The study included 161 patients; 31 patients (19.3%) had hypoglycemic events, but none of them was severe. In univariate analysis, hypoglycemia was significantly associated with the presence of diabetes with end-organ damage, duration of diabetes, use of insulin prior to admission, glycemic variability (GV), belonging to the glargine insulin group in the INSUPAR trial, mean daily grams of lipids in TPN, mean insulin per 10 grams of carbohydrates, duration of TPN, and increase in urea during TPN. Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that the presence of diabetes with end-organ damage, GV, use of glargine insulin, and TPN duration were risk factors for hypoglycemia.Conclusion: The presence of T2DM with end-organ damage complications, longer TPN duration, belonging to the glargine insulin group, and greater GV are factors associated with the risk of hypoglycemia in diabetic noncritically ill inpatients with parenteral nutrition.Abbreviations: ADA = American Diabetes Association; BMI = body mass index; CV% = coefficient of variation; DM = diabetes mellitus; GI = glargine insulin; GV = glycemic variability; ICU = intensive care unit; RI = regular insulin; T2DM = type 2 diabetes mellitus; TPN = total parenteral nutrition 相似文献

Objective: To evaluate a diabetes (DM) care delivery model among hyperglycemic adults with type 2 DM being discharged from the emergency department (ED) to home. The primary hypothesis was that a focused education and medication management intervention would lead to a greater short-term improvement in glycemic control compared to controls.Methods: A 4-week, randomized controlled trial provided antihyperglycemic medications management using an evidence-based algorithm plus survival skills diabetes self-management education (DSME) for ED patients with blood glucose (BG) levels ≥200 mg/dL. The intervention was delivered by endocrinologist-supervised certified diabetes educators. Controls received usual ED care.Results: Among 101 participants (96% Black, 54% female, 62.3% Medicaid and/or Medicare insurance), 77% completed the week 4 visit. Glycated hemoglobin A1C (A1C) went from 11.8 ± 2.4 to 10.5 ± 1.9% (P<.001) and 11.5 ± 2.0 to 11.1 ± 2.1% in the intervention and control groups, respectively (P = .012). At 4 weeks, the difference in A1C reduction between groups was 0.9% (P = .01). Mean BG decreased for both groups (P<.001), with a higher percentage of intervention patients (65%) reaching a BG <180 mg/dL compared to 29% of controls (P = .002). Hypoglycemia rates did not differ by group, and no severe hypoglycemia was reported. Medication adherence (Modified Morisky Score©) improved from low to medium (P<.001) among intervention patients and did not improve among controls.Conclusions: This study provides evidence that a focused diabetes care delivery intervention can be initiated in the ED among adults with type 2 diabetes and hyperglycemia and safely and effectively completed in the ambulatory setting. Improvement in short-term glycemic outcomes and medication adherence were observed.Abbreviations: A1C = glycated hemoglobin A1C BG = blood glucose BMI = body mass index CDE = certified diabetes educator CI = confidence interval DM = diabetes mellitus DSME = diabetes self-management education ED = emergency departmentMMAS-8 = Modified Morisky Medication Scale PCP = primary care provider POC = point of care SQ = subcutaneous 相似文献

Background: The 2004 National Health Interview Survey suggests that 7.0% of adults in the US population have diabetes mellitus (DM). Minority populations in the United States are disproportionately burdened with this disease.Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of DM risk in a cross-section of primary care practices in a large urban area that has considerable proportions of Latino and Caribbean populations and to examine the extent to which primary prevention of DM is provided to this ethnically and economically diverse population.Methods: This was a cross-sectional study of primary care patients presenting to physicians participating in the South Florida Primary Care Practice-Based Research Network and 2 physicians from central and northern Florida. We used a validated instrument to calculate DM risk based on body mass index, family history of DM, age-appropriate physical activity, and obstetric history. We excluded people who self-reported DM, and classified undiagnosed patients into 2 groups: those who recalled receiving information about their high risk for DM and those who did not recall receiving such information.Results: A total of 2836 patients were surveyed; data from 2486 were analyzed. The mean (SD) age of the study sample (N = 2486) was 50.22 (16.38) years, and the majority of the patients were female (n = 1685 [67.8%]). Of the 2018 patients without DM, 1013 (50.2%) were at high risk for the disease. Among high-risk patients, 839 (82.8%) reported not having been informed by their physician that they were at risk. Significant differences in DM risk were observed among ethnic groups (P = 0.01), but patient demographics were not associated with informed status in high-risk patients. High body mass index was strongly associated with informed status (P < 0.001).Conclusions: Fewer than I in 5 patients at high risk reported having been informed of their elevated risk. This low rate of patient education may delay preventive measures and may contribute to the disproportionate effect of DM on ethnic groups in whom this disease is more common. 相似文献

Background: Despite the availability of effective treatments, many patients with diabetes have suboptimal glycemic control.Objective: This study was designed to determine whether the Advanced Insulin Management (AIM) program could help patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM) reduce their A1C levels to ≤7.5% without weight gain, increased incidence of hypoglycemia, or increased diabetes-related distress.Methods: The AIM program, developed to intensify glycemic control in patients with type 1 DM, consisted of a screening visit and 3 to 6 interactive group sessions, depending on whether the patient elects multiple daily injections (MDIs) or an insulin pump. Patients who wanted to learn additional diabetes management skills were referred by their endocrinologist, and those with competent carbohydrate-counting skills and record-keeping practices were eligible to enroll. A nurse, dietitian, psychologist, and physician provided group instruction and supported individual goal setting. The program included depression screening, regimen adjustments, and problem-solving activities. Outcome measures, including blood glucose, A1C, weight, and diabetes-related distress, were tracked for 12 months.Results: The study included 113 adult patients with type 1 DM (59% female; mean age, 39 years). Twenty patients already had insulin pumps, 46 patients initiated pump therapy during the study, and 47 patients elected MDIs. Mean A1C declined by 0.5% (to 7.3%) after 12 months, without weight gain or increased hypoglycemia. A significant decrease in diabetes-related distress was observed.Conclusion: The AIM program was associated with important improvements in glycemic control in patients with type 1 DM, without weight gain or increased hypoglycemic episodes. 相似文献

ObjectiveTo review recent glycemia trials focused on reducing cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk in patients with type 2 diabetes and to describe how the results of these studies have altered our approach to the management of glycemia in patients with diabetes.MethodsResults of some of the previous as well as recent trials, including the Action to Control Cardiovascular Risk in Diabetes (ACCORD), Action in Diabetes and Vascular Disease (ADVANCE), and Veterans Affairs Diabetes Trial (VADT), are reviewed.ResultsThe results demonstrate that the establishment of glycemia (hemoglobin A1c) goals in patients with type 2 diabetes aimed at reducing CVD events is complex, should be highly individualized, and should probably be varied depending on the duration of diabetes as well as the presence or absence of CVD and microvascular complications.ConclusionResults of the ACCORD, ADVANCE, and VADT studies have considerably increased our knowledge and refined our approach to establishing glycemia goals in patients with type 2 diabetes. In patients with recently recognized diabetes with no prior CVD events, glycemic control to normal or near-normal levels appears to be effective in preventing CVD events and mortality. In patients with established diabetes (8 to 10 or more years) and recognized CVD, however, glycemic control to normal or near-normal levels does not reduce the risk of further CVD events or mortality. Importantly, strict control of all known risk factors for CVD and microvascular complications by aggressive management of hypertension, dyslipidemia, and glycemia, use of aspirin, and cessation of smoking in patients with type 2 diabetes has proved to be highly beneficial.

Background: Oxidative stress is believed to be the primary cause of the microvascular and macrovascular complications of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM).Objective: This paper examines the evidence linking oxidative stress with long-term complications of type 2 DM and explores methods to minimize its effect.Methods: A literature search was performed to identify relevant studies for this review. Articles published in English from 2000 to 2008 were identified through searches of PubMed, Diabetes Care, and Google using the search terms oxidative stress, postprandial hyperglycemia, ACCORD Trial, and endothelial cell dysfunction.Results: The literature search identified 423 articles. Although chronic hyperglycemia can be effectively monitored and targeted using glycosylated hemoglobin concentrations, postprandial glucose levels are also important. Postprandial glucose excursions are exhibited by almost all patients with type 2 DM and are independent risk factors for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Furthermore, glucose fluctuations during the postprandial period elicit more oxidative stress than chronic, sustained hyperglycemia and can lead to endothelial dysfunction, vascular inflammation, and microvascular complications. In turn, endothelial dysfunction has been implicated in the development of vascular pathologies such as atherosclerosis. Pharmacologic interventions (eg, rapid-acting insulin analogues that target post-prandial glucose excursions) reduce oxidative stress and vascular inflammation and improve endothelial dysfunction.Conclusions: Given the important role of oxidative stress in the development of complications of type 2 DM, physi-cians should consider methods to reduce oxidative stress that may occur during both acute (postprandial) and chronic hyperglycemia. One critical aspect is to reduce postprandial glucose levels to <180 mg/dL while lowering fasting glucose levels to <110 mg/dL. By coaching patients to reach these goals, physicians and other health care professionals can minimize the risk of long-term complications of type 2 DM. 相似文献

Aim: Diabetes is a serious metabolic disorder and oxidative stress and inflammation contribute to its pathogenesis and complications. Since Silybum marianum (L.) Gaertn. (silymarin) extract is an antioxidant with anti-inflammatory properties, this randomized clinical trial was conducted to evaluate the effects of silymarin supplementation on oxidative stress indices and hs-CRP in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients.Methods: For the present paralleled, randomized, triple-blinded, placebo-controlled clinical trial, 40 type 2 diabetes patients aged 25–50 yr old and on stable medication were recruited from the Iranian Diabetes Society and endocrinology clinics in East Azarbayjan (Tabriz, Iran) and randomly assigned into two groups. Patients in the silymarin treatment group received 140 mg, thrice daily of dried extracts of Silybum marianum (n = 20) and those in the placebo group (n = 20) received identical placebos for 45 days. Data pertaining to height, weight, waist circumference and BMI, as well as food consumption, were collected at base line and at the conclusion of the study. Fasting blood samples were obtained and antioxidant indices and hs-CRP were assessed at baseline, as well as at the end of the trial.Results: All 40 patients completed the study and did not report any adverse effects or symptoms with the silymarin supplementation. Silymarin supplementation significantly increased superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GPX) activity and total antioxidant capacity (TAC) compared to patients taking the placebo, by 12.85%, 30.32% and 8.43%, respectively (p < 0.05). There was a significant reduction in hs-CRP levels by 26.83% (p < 0.05) in the silymarin group compared to the placebo group. Malondialdehyde (MDA) concentration significantly decreased by 12.01% (p < 0.05) in the silymarin group compared to the baseline.Conclusions: Silymarin supplementation improves some antioxidant indices (SOD, GPX and TAC) and decrease hs-CRP levels in T2DM patients. 相似文献

Background: The benefits of tight glycemic control in preventing the onset and progression of microvascular complications in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) are unarguable. The majority of patients with type 2 DM will eventually require insulin to achieve adequate glycemic control. Using insulin earlier rather than later in the course of type 2 DM may diminish the deleterious effects of hyperglycemia on β-cell function and therefore help prolong good glycemic control and prevent the occurrence of microvascular complications. However, weight gain is a potential adverse effect of insulin therapy.Objective: The goal of this article was to describe the benefit of insulin therapy early in the course of type 2 DM, review the association of weight gain with insulin therapy, and examine potential detrimental effects that insulin-associated weight gain could have in patients with type 2 DM.Methods: Materials used for this article were identified through a search of MEDLINE (1966–2006). English-language articles were chosen using the search terms diabetes mellitus type 2, insulin, and obesity.Results: Intensive insulin therapy is often associated with weight gain. Although there is concern that weight gain in patients with type 2 DM may have adverse effects on risk factors for cardiovascular disease, unfavorable changes in blood pressure and lipid levels have not been consistently observed in clinical trials. Furthermore, clinical evidence, including data from the United Kingdom Prospective Diabetes Study, supports the view that intensive insulin therapy does not increase the risk for cardiovascular disease.Conclusions: Early insulin therapy in patients with type 2 DM may be a strategy that will help patients achieve and maintain good glycemic control, thereby reducing the risk of developing microvascular complications. Although weight gain is commonly associated with insulin therapy, it does not appear to put these patients at greater risk for cardiovascular disease. 相似文献

Objective: Latin American Thyroid Society (LATS) Hypothyroidism Clinical Practice Guidelines recommend case finding of hypothyroid patients in multiple and different situations that agree with other Society guidelines. However, the detection of hypothyroidism in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) or metabolic syndrome (MetS) patients is not mentioned in particular. In the recent years, several basic and epidemiologic studies have appeared showing that a lower thyroid function and MetS/T2DM are associated. Hence, the aim of this review is to manifest the LATS position on the diagnosis of hypothyroidism in both MetS and T2DM patients.Methods: A search was made in PubMed using the following terms: “hypothyroidism” AND “diabetes” OR “metabolic syndrome.” The most relevant studies describing the prevalence and complications due to hypothyroidism in both MetS and T2DM patients were selected.Results: The current document reviews new information from studies that have shown that the prevalence of hypothyroidism is higher in T2DM patients (odds ratio [OR], 3.45; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.5 to 4.7) and that diabetic complications are more prevalent in subclinical hypothyroidism (ScH). The incidence of T2DM is 1.09-fold higher with each doubling of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) mIU/L (95% CI, 1.06 to 1.12), and the incidence of prediabetes increases 15% (hazard ratio, 1.15; 95% CI, 1.04 to 1.26) in patients with TSH >5 mIU/L. Similarly, MetS is more prevalent in ScH compared to euthyroid individuals (OR, 1.31; 95% CI, 1.08 to 1.60).Conclusion: Thyroid function is affected in MetS and T2DM, and hypothyroidism is more common in these patients. Diabetic complications are more frequent in ScH patients. Therefore, LATS now recommends aggressive case finding of hypothyroidism in both MetS and T2DM patients.Abbreviations: CI = confidence interval; GLUT4 = glucose transporter 4; HOMA-IR = homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance; HR = hazard ratio; LATS = Latin American Thyroid Society; MetS = metabolic syndrome; OR = odds ratio; ScH = subclinical hypothyroidism; T2DM = type 2 diabetes mellitus; T3 = triiodothyronine; T4 = thyroxine; TSH = thyroid-stimulating hormone 相似文献

ObjectiveTo evaluate the role of glycemic control in the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM).MethodsWe review the literature regarding coronary atherosclerosis, coronary artery calcification, and the epidemiologic studies related to the role of glycemia and the classic risk factors for coronary artery disease (CAD) in type 1 DM.ResultsFour prospective studies (Wisconsin Epidemiologic Study of Diabetic Retinopathy, EURODIAB, Steno Diabetes Center Study of Adults With Type 1 DM, and Pittsburgh Epidemiology of Diabetes Complications study) do not show that glycemic control predicts CAD occurrence. Findings from the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial/Epidemiology of Diabetes Interventions and Complications study show that compared with conventional insulin therapy, intensive insulin therapy reduces CVD among patients with type 1 DM and is associated with lower prevalence of coronary artery calcification. The discrepancies between the findings from the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial/Epidemiology of Diabetes Interventions and Complications study and the Pittsburgh Epidemiology of Diabetes Complication study are likely due to differences between the study populations and the lower prevalence of renal disease in the former study. Besides duration of DM and albuminuria/overt nephropathy, insulin resistance is a major determinant of CAD associated with type 1 DM.ConclusionsDiscrepant study results regarding the relationship between glycemia and CAD/coronary artery calcification may be related to the prevalence of renal disease and the presence of the metabolic syndrome. Published data suggest that addressing traditional risk factors including albuminuria, the metabolic syndrome, and inflammatory markers is better for preventing and treating CAD than focusing exclusively on glycemic control, which is still necessary for preventing microvascular complications. Furthermore, there is a synergistic effect of glycemic control and albuminuria on the development of CVD. (Endocr Pract. 2008;14:912-923) 相似文献
