Skin Autofluorescence as a Potential Adjunctive Marker for Cardiovascular Risk Assessment in Type 2 Diabetes: A Systematic Review. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:3889. [PMID: 38612699 PMCID: PMC11012197 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25073889] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/04/2024] [Revised: 03/23/2024] [Accepted: 03/29/2024] [Indexed: 04/14/2024] Open
Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM), due to its long-term hyperglycemia, leads to the accumulation of advanced glycation end-products (AGEs), especially in the vessel walls. Skin autofluorescence (SAF) is a non-invasive tool that measures AGEs. DM patients have a rich dietary source in AGEs, associated with high oxidative stress and long-term inflammation. AGEs represent a cardiovascular (CV) risk factor, and they are linked with CV events. Our objective was to assess whether SAF predicts future CV events (CVE) by examining its association with other CV risk factors in patients with type 2 DM (T2DM). Additionally, we assessed the strengths and limitations of SAF as a predictive tool for CVE. Following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses methodology, we conducted a systematic review with CRD42024507397 protocol, focused on AGEs, T2DM, SAF, and CV risk. We identified seven studies from 2014 to 2024 that predominantly used the AGE Reader Diagnostic Optic tool. The collective number of patients involved is 8934, with an average age of 63. So, SAF is a valuable, non-invasive marker for evaluating CV risk in T2DM patients. It stands out as a CV risk factor associated independently with CVE. SAF levels are influenced by prolonged hyperglycemia, lifestyle, aging, and other chronic diseases such as depression, and it can be used as a predictive tool for CVE.

Abstract
This article examines the importance of advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs) and summarizes the structure of AGEs, pathological changes associated with AGEs, the contribution of AGEs to metabolic memory, and the value of AGEs as a predictor of diabetic complications and cardiovascular disease in people with and without diabetes. As a practical focus, skin autofluorescence (SAF) is examined as an attractive approach for estimating AGE burden. The measurement of AGEs may be of significant value to specific individuals and groups, including Black and Hispanic/Latino Americans, as they appear to have higher concentrations of hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) than would be predicted by other metrics of mean glycemia. We hypothesize that if the amount of glycation of HbA1c is greater than expected from measured glucose levels, and if AGEs are accumulating, then this accumulation of AGEs might account for the increased rate of complications of diabetes in populations with high rates of vascular disease and other complications. Thus, identifying and modifying the burden of AGEs based on measurement of AGEs by SAF may turn out to be a worthwhile metric to determine individuals who are at high risk for the complications of diabetes as well as others without diabetes at risk of vascular disease. We conclude that available evidence supports SAF as both a clinical measurement and as a means of evaluating interventions aimed at reducing the risks of vascular disease and diabetic complications.

Abstract
AIM This study aimed to investigate whether skin autofluorescence (SAF) is associated with clinical outcomes in patients with coronary artery disease. Advanced glycation end products (AGE) play a crucial role in atherosclerosis. Accumulation of AGE can be measured non-invasively by SAF. METHODS We performed a single-center prospective study of 896 patients with coronary artery disease treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) between January 2014 and December 2015. SAF was measured before the PCI procedure. The primary endpoint was patient-oriented composite endpoints (POCE) defined as a composite of all-cause death, any myocardial infarction, any stroke, and any revascularization. RESULTS Patients were significantly older and suffered higher rates of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in the high SAF group. A higher SAF was associated with an increased risk for POCE (HR 1.43; 95% CI 1.19-1.71, p<0.001) that was mainly driven by any coronary revascularization (HR 1.33; 95% CI 1.08-1.65, p=0.01) including target lesion revascularization (HR 1.41; 95% CI 1.02-1.94, p=0.04). The higher SAF group also experienced worse outcomes in stroke (HR 2.08; 95% CI 1.38-3.15, p=0.001). Multivariate analyses indicated that SAF was an independent predictor of POCE (HR 1.36; 95% CI 1.13-1.63, p=0.001). CONCLUSIONS SAF as a measure of AGE deposition is independently associated with cardiovascular events amongst patients with coronary artery disease treated with PCI. SAF also predicts the incidence of restenosis and stroke.

Kim Y. Blood and Tissue Advanced Glycation End Products as Determinants of Cardiometabolic Disorders Focusing on Human Studies. Nutrients 2023; 15:nu15082002. [PMID: 37111220 PMCID: PMC10144557 DOI: 10.3390/nu15082002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/04/2023] [Revised: 04/18/2023] [Accepted: 04/20/2023] [Indexed: 04/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Cardiometabolic disorders are characterised by a cluster of interactive risk determinants such as increases in blood glucose, lipids and body weight, as well as elevated inflammation and oxidative stress and gut microbiome changes. These disorders are associated with onset of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and cardiovascular disease (CVD). T2DM is strongly associated with CVD. Dietary advanced glycation end products (dAGEs) attributable from modern diets high in sugar and/or fat, highly processed foods and high heat-treated foods can contribute to metabolic etiologies of cardiometabolic disorders. This mini review aims to determine whether blood dAGEs levels and tissue dAGEs levels are determinants of the prevalence of cardiometabolic disorders through recent human studies. ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay), high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) for blood dAGEs measurement and skin auto fluorescence (SAF) for skin AGEs measurement can be used. Recent human studies support that a diet high in AGEs can negatively influence glucose control, body weight, blood lipid levels and vascular health through the elevated oxidative stress, inflammation, blood pressure and endothelial dysfunction compared with a diet low in AGEs. Limited human studies suggested a diet high in AGEs could negatively alter gut microbiota. SAF could be considered as one of the predictors affecting risks for cardiometabolic disorders. More intervention studies are needed to determine how dAGEs are associated with the prevalence of cardiometabolic disorders through gut microbiota changes. Further human studies are conducted to find the association between CVD events, CVD mortality and total mortality through SAF measurement, and a consensus on whether tissue dAGEs act as a predictor of CVD is required.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Chronic exposure to hyperglycemia is a significant risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). Advanced glycation end products (AGES) result from multiple sugar-dependent reactions interacting with proteins and their receptors, generating endothelial dysfunction and CVD. However, there is little epidemiological data about its impact on CVD risk. We aimed to assess the association between circulating AGES and CVD risk in the Mexican population. METHODS AND RESULTS We used longitudinal data from waves 2004-2006 and 2010-2012 of 1195 participants from the Health Workers Cohort Study. Circulating AGES were assessed by radioimmunoassay, and cardiovascular risk (CVR) was computed with the Framingham risk score. Linear and logistic fixed-effects regression models were used to assess the interest association, adjusting for confounding factors. An increase in 200 μU/ml of AGES was associated with a 0.18% increased risk of CVD (95% CI 0.05-0.31%). After adjusting for physical activity and smoking status, individuals who increased their AGES category had higher odds of middle-high CVR (low to medium AGES: OR 1.83, 95% CI 1.11-3.20; low to high AGES: OR 2.61, 95% CI 1.51-4.50). The associations remained statistically significant when we further adjusted for insulin resistance, dietary intake of AGES, and total daily calorie intake. CONCLUSION Our data show that circulating AGES are associated with the Framingham CVD risk score, independently of other major risk factors for CVD in the Mexican population.

HbA1c-based rather than fasting plasma glucose-based definitions of prediabetes identifies high-risk patients with angiographic coronary intermediate lesions: a prospective cohort study. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2023; 22:68. [PMID: 36966299 PMCID: PMC10040102 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-023-01750-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2022] [Accepted: 01/23/2023] [Indexed: 03/27/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Prediabetes is common and associated with poor prognosis in patients with acute coronary syndrome and those undergoing revascularization. However, the impact of prediabetes on prognosis in patients with coronary intermediate lesions remains unclear. The objective of the current study is to explore the impact of prediabetes and compare the prognostic value of the different definitions of prediabetes in patients with coronary intermediate lesions. METHODS A total of 1532 patients attending Fuwai hospital (Beijing, China), with intermediate angiographic coronary lesions, not undergoing revascularization, were followed-up from 2013 to 2021. Patients were classified as normal glucose tolerance (NGT), prediabetes and diabetes according to various definitions based on HbA1c or admission fasting plasma glucose (FPG). The primary endpoint was defined as major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), the composite endpoint of all-cause death, non-fatal myocardial infarction and repeated revascularization therapy. Multivariate cox regression model was used to explore the association between categories of abnormal glucose category and MACE risk. RESULTS The proportion of patients defined as prediabetes ranged from 3.92% to 47.06% depending on the definition used. A total of 197 MACE occurred during a median follow-up time of 6.1 years. Multivariate cox analysis showed that prediabetes according to the International Expert Committee (IEC) guideline (6.0 ≤ HbA1c < 6.5%) was associated with increased risk of MACE compared with NGT (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.705, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.143-2.543) and after confounding adjustment (HR: 1.513, 95%CI 1.005-2.277). Consistently, the best cut-off point of glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) identified based on the Youden's index was also 6%. Restricted cubic spline analysis delineated a linear positive relationship between baseline HbA1c and MACE risk. Globally, FPG or FPG-based definition of prediabetes was not associated with patients' outcome. CONCLUSIONS In this cohort of patients with intermediate coronary lesions not undergoing revascularization therapy, prediabetes based on the IEC-HbA1c definition was associated with increased MACE risk compared with NGT, and may assist in identifying high-risk patients who can benefit from early lifestyle intervention.

Time-varying parameters of glycemic control and glycation in relation to arterial stiffness in patients with type 1 diabetes. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2022; 21:277. [PMID: 36494687 PMCID: PMC9737749 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-022-01717-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/26/2022] [Accepted: 12/03/2022] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND A substantial proportion of type 1 diabetes (T1D) patients free from known cardiovascular disease (CVD) show premature arterial stiffening, with age, blood pressure, and HbA1c-as gold standard of glycemic control-as main predictors. However, the relationship of arterial stiffness with other time-varying parameters of glycemic control and glycation has been far less explored. This study investigated the relationship of arterial stiffness with several short- and long-term parameters of glycemic control and glycation in patients with T1D, such as advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) and continuous glucose monitoring (CGM)-derived parameters. METHODS Cross-sectional study at a tertiary care centre including 54 patients with T1D free from known CVD. Arterial stiffness was assessed with carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cf-PWV). Current level and 10-year history of HbA1c were evaluated, and skin AGEs, urinary AGEs, and serum soluble AGE-receptor (sRAGE) concentrations. CGM for 7 days was used to determine time in range, time in hyper- and hypoglycemia, and glycemic variability. RESULTS Cf-PWV was associated with current HbA1c (rs = + 0.28), mean 10-years HbA1c (rs = + 0.36), skin AGEs (rs = + 0.40) and the skin AGEs-to-sRAGE ratio (rs = + 0.40), but not with urinary AGE or serum sRAGE concentrations; and not with any of the CGM-parameters. Multiple linear regression for cf-PWV showed that the model with the best fit included age, T1D duration, 24-h mean arterial pressure and mean 10-years HbA1c (adjusted R2 = 0.645, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Longer-term glycemic exposure as reflected by current and mean 10-years HbA1c is a key predictor of arterial stiffness in patients with T1D, while no relationship was found with any of the short-term CGM parameters. Our findings stress the importance of early and sustained good glycemic control to prevent premature CVD in patients with T1D and suggest that HbA1c should continue to be used in the risk assessment for diabetic complications. The role of skin glycation, as a biomarker for vascular aging, in the risk assessment for CVD is an interesting avenue for further research.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Advanced glycation endproducts (AGE) have an important role in the development of chronic complications in diabetes mellitus and in renal failure. Skin autofluorescence (SAF) is a simple noninvasive optical technique to estimate AGE levels in the dermis. SAF increases with age, but rises more rapidly in diabetes and renal failure, and is also associated with, and a predictor of their complications. RECENT FINDINGS In recent large population studies, SAF is a strong predictor of development of type 2 diabetes (T2D), and in persons with known diabetes of its complications. SAF also predicts new cardiovascular disease (CVD) and mortality not only in individuals with known type 2 diabetes but also in the general population. SUMMARY SAF is a simple, powerful and independent predictor for development of type 2 diabetes (T2D), and also for cardiovascular disease and mortality in both persons with diabetes, and in the general population.

Cardiovascular events after a dramatic reduction of HbA1c in hospitalized subjects with type 2 diabetes and high long-term glucose exposure. J Diabetes Complications 2022; 36:108234. [PMID: 35752528 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdiacomp.2022.108234] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2021] [Revised: 06/15/2022] [Accepted: 06/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE In long-lasting diabetes, a dramatic reduction of HbA1c can precede adverse events such as worsening retinopathies or painful neuropathies. We have now analyzed its possible link with later cardiovascular events in subjects with type 2 diabetes, according to their long-term glucose exposure evaluated by skin autofluorescence (SAF) measured with an AGE-READER (Diagnoptics, Groningen, The Netherland). RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We studied retrospectively a cohort of patients hospitalized for uncontrolled and/or complicated type 2 diabetes from 2009 to 2017. A previous dramatic reduction of HbA1c was defined by more than -1.5 %/4 months, and later cardiovascular events as myocardial infarction, stroke, revascularization procedures, and cardiovascular-related death. Survival analyses were performed before and after categorizing the subjects for their SAF. RESULTS The 386 subjects were 57.5 % men, 62 ± 9 years old, with a 14 ± 9 years duration of diabetes, most were treated by insulin (63.7 %). The dramatic HbA1c reducers (-3.0 ± 1.5 %) represented 16.5 % of the population. During the 51 months (IQR: 30-71) of follow-up, 53 cardiovascular events occurred and were related to the SAF (2.70 ± 0.64 AUs). Linkage was established between the SAF, the reduction of HbA1c and the cardiovascular events (p = 0.017). With a SAF higher than the median (2.65 AUs), the dramatic reduction of HbA1c was related to later cardiovascular events (HR: 3.84, 95%CI: 1.68-8.76). CONCLUSIONS A dramatic decline of HbA1c leads to a higher risk of cardiovascular events in hospitalized subjects with type 2 diabetes and a high long-term glucose exposure.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Type 1 diabetes is associated with an increased risk of vascular complications. We aimed to investigate the association between serum and tissue advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) and micro- and macrovascular complications in type 1 diabetes (T1D). METHODS We conducted a cross-sectional study on 196 adults with T1D (mean age 44.53 ± 16, mean duration of diabetes 22 ± 12 years, mean HbA1c 8 ± 1.2%). AGEs were measured in blood serum (i.e., carboxymethyllysine (CML), methylglyoxal-hydroimidazolone-1 (MGH1), and pentosidine) and by measurement of skin autofluorescence (SAF). Associations between AGEs levels and vascular complications were analyzed using binary logistic regression. Correlations between AGEs and pulse wave velocity (PWV) were also assessed by linear regressions. Significant differences were set for p values less than 0.05. RESULTS We found positive associations between different AGEs and vascular complications. SAF was associated with both microangiopathy (retinopathy: OR = 1.92, p = 0.011; neuropathy: OR = 2.02, p = 0.04; any microangiopathy: OR = 2.83, p < 0.0001) and macroangiopathy (coronaropathy: OR = 3.11, p = 0.009; any macroangiopathy: OR = 2.78, p = 0.003). For circulating AGEs, pentosidine was significantly associated with coronaropathy (OR = 1.61, p = 0.01) and any macroangiopathy (OR = 1.52, p = 0.005) while MGH1 was associated with nephropathy (OR 1.72, p = 0.03). Furthermore, a significant linear correlation was found between PWV and SAF (r = 0.43, p < 0.001), pentosidine (r = 0.28, p < 0.001), and MGH1 (r = 0.16, p = 0.031), but not for CML (r = 0.03, p = 0.598). CONCLUSIONS Skin autofluorescence appears to be a useful marker for investigating both micro- and macrovascular complications in T1D. In this study, pentosidine was associated with macroangiopathy and MGH1 with nephropathy among the circulating AGEs. Furthermore, the correlations between PWV and AGEs may suggest their value in early prediction of vascular complications in T1D.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetes is a global concern among adults. Previous studies have suggested an association between different screening methods and diabetes; however, increasing evidence has suggested the importance of early screening for diabetes mellitus (DM) and its influencing factors. In this study, we aimed to explore whether the non-invasive detection of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) in the early screening of DM in the Chinese community and whether body mass index (BMI) and metabolic indexes could moderate this relationship. METHODS Three community health service centers in Hefei that signed the medical consortium agreement with the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University were selected to screen the population aged 30-90 years in each community using a multi-stage cluster sampling method from January 2018 to January 2019. Univariate analysis of variance was used to compare the differences in general data, biochemical indexes, skin AGEs levels, and blood glucose among groups. In addition, a multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed. RESULTS A total of 912 patients with a community health physical examination and no history of diabetes were selected, excluding those with missing values > 5%. Finally, 906 samples were included in the study with an effective rate of 99.3%. The prevalence in the normal, impaired glucose tolerance, and DM groups were 79.8%, 10.0%, and 10.2%, respectively. By dividing AGE by quartile, AGE accumulation was classified as ≤ P25, P25-P50, P50-P75, and > P75. Higher AGE accumulation (χ2 = 37.95), BMI (χ2 = 12.20), systolic blood pressure (SBP) (χ2 = 8.46), triglyceride (TG) (χ2 = 6.23), and older age (χ2 = 20.11) were more likely to have a higher prevalence of fasting blood glucose (FBG). The analyses revealed significant correlations between AGE accumulation, BMI, TG, total cholesterol (TC), and FBG (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION As the findings indicate, priority should be given to the quality of metabolic-related indicators, such as BMI, TG, and TC, employed to effectively reduce the FBG of Chinese participants with high AGE accumulation. Skin autofluorescence may prove to be a rapid and non-invasive method for assessing the metabolic progression of all glucose level layers.

Abstract
AIMS This meta-analysis aimed to systematically evaluate the prospective association between advanced glycation end products (AGEs) and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). DATA SYNTHESIS Prospective studies that reported the association of AGEs (measured by skin autofluorescence) with MACE were searched in PubMed and EMBASE from inception up to July 2021. Multivariable-adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) and their respective 95% confidence intervals (CIs) reflecting the risk of MACE associated with AGEs were determined using random-effects meta-analysis. Fourteen articles with sixteen items involving 79,389 participants were included. A significant association was found between AGEs and MACE (pooled HR: 1.54, 95% CI: 1.31-1.81, I2 = 68%). Moreover, AGEs were associated with a significant increase in fatal cardiovascular disease (CVD) (HR: 1.88, 95% CI: 1.30-2.70) and nonfatal CVD (HR: 1.40, 95% CI: 1.12-1.74). The association between AGEs and MACE was also significant in patients with diabetes (HR: 1.88, 95% CI: 1.31-2.69) and kidney disease (HR: 1.50, 95% CI: 1.16-1.94). CONCLUSIONS This meta-analysis indicates that higher levels of AGEs measured by skin autofluorescence are significantly correlated with a higher pooled risk of MACE, and AGEs are closely related to both nonfatal and fatal cardiovascular events. AGEs are a valuable biomarker for predicting the occurrence of MACE. THE PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER CRD42021279714.

Advanced Glycation End Products Induce Atherosclerosis via RAGE/TLR4 Signaling Mediated-M1 Macrophage Polarization-Dependent Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell Phenotypic Conversion. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2022; 2022:9763377. [PMID: 35069982 PMCID: PMC8776434 DOI: 10.1155/2022/9763377] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/29/2021] [Revised: 12/05/2021] [Accepted: 12/08/2021] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
Objective. The objective of this study was to investigate the involved mechanisms of advanced glycation end product- (AGE-) exacerbated atherosclerosis (AS). Methods. Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) inhibitor was administrated to type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) AS rats. Atherosclerotic plaque, M1 macrophage infiltration, and VSMCs phenotypes were evaluated. AGE-exposed primary macrophages were treated with specific siRNAs knocking down receptor for AGEs (RAGE) and TLR4. Phenotypes of M1 macrophage and VSMCs were identified by fluorescent stains. Contact and noncontact coculture models were established. VSMCs and macrophages were cocultured in these models. ELISA was used to detect inflammatory cytokine concentrations. Relative mRNA expression levels were determined by real-time PCR. Relative protein expression and phosphorylation levels were evaluated by Western blots assays. Results. TLR4 inhibitor treatment significantly reduced arterial stenosis, infiltration of M1 polarized macrophages, and contractile-to-synthetic phenotype conversion of VSMCs in DM AS animals. RAGE and TLR4 silencing dramatically reduced AGE-induced macrophage M1 polarization, inflammatory cytokine secretion, and RAGE/TLR4/forkhead box protein C2 (FOXC2)/signaling which inhibited delta-like ligand 4 (Dll4) expression in macrophages. AGE-treated macrophages induced VSMC phenotypic conversion via activating Notch pathway in a contact coculture model rather than a noncontact model. The VSMC phenotypic conversion induction capability of macrophages was attenuated by RAGE and TLR4 silencing. Conclusions. AGEs induced activation of RAGE/TLR4/FOXC2 signaling, which featured macrophage with Dll4 high expression during M1 polarization. These macrophages promoted contractile-synthetic phenotypic conversion of VSMCs through the Dll4/Notch pathway after direct cell-to-cell contacts.

Abstract
Skin involvement is an overlooked aspect in the management of paediatric patients with type 1 diabetes. A comprehensive search of published literature using the PubMed database was carried out using the following key terms: "children," "pediatric/paediatric patients," "skin," "skin disorders," "type 1 diabetes." Dermatological side effects are frequently observed among diabetic children and adolescents. Insulin-induced lipodystrophies and allergic contact dermatitis caused by insulin pumps or glycaemic sensors are the most common skin reactions in these patients. Furthermore, several diabetes-associated skin diseases such as necrobiosis lipoidica, granuloma annulare, vitiligo, and bullosis diabeticorum may already be present in paediatric patients. Paediatric diabetes specialists should pay attention to their patients' skin to recognize these disorders, identify the potential causes, and choose the most suitable treatment. Finally, the evaluation of skin concentrations of advanced glycation end-products using non-invasive diagnostic techniques may be used to assess the risk of chronic complications of diabetes as early as adolescence.

Abstract
Background and aims The increasing prevalence of diabetes mellitus is causing a massive growth of peripheral artery disease incidences, a disabling complication of diabetic atherosclerosis, which leads often to the amputation of the affected limb. Critical limb ischemia is the terminal disease stage, which requires a prompt intervention to relieve pain and save limbs. However, patients undergoing revascularization often suffer from cardiovascular, cerebrovascular and major adverse limb events with poor outcomes. Furthermore, the same procedure performed in apparently similar patients has various outcomes and lack of an outcome predictive support causes a high lower limb arterial revascularization rate with disastrous effects for patients. We collected the main risk factors of major adverse limb events in a more readable and immediate format of the topic, to propose an overview of parameters to manage effectively peripheral artery disease patients and to propose basics of a new predictive tool to prevent from disabling vascular complications of the disease. Methods Most recent and updated literature about the prevalence of major adverse limb events in peripheral artery disease was reviewed to identify possible main predictors. Results In this article, we summarized major risk factors of limb revascularization failure and disabling vascular complications collecting those parameters principally responsible for major adverse limb events, which provides physio-pathological explanation of their role in peripheral artery disease. Conclusion We evaluated and listed a panel of possible predictors of MALE (Major Adverse Limb Event) in order to contribute to the development of a predictive score, based on a summary of the main risk factors reported in scientific articles, which could improve the management of peripheral artery disease by preventing vascular accidents.

Abstract
AIMS To investigate association between skin autofluorescence (SAF) and cardiovascular events (CVE) and assess its predictive value in Chinese adults with type 2 diabetes (T2D). MATERIALS AND METHODS SAF was measured non-invasively in 3806 Chinese adults with T2D between 2016 and 2019 with CVE as primary endpoint and individual components as secondary endpoints. Cox proportional hazard models were used to examine associations between SAF and endpoints with adjustment for conventional risk factors. C-statistic, integrated discrimination improvement (IDI), and net reclassification improvement (NRI) were performed to evaluate SAF's predictive value. RESULTS During a median 1.8 (interquartile range, 1.2-3.1) years of follow-up, 172 individuals experienced CVE. Multivariate Cox model showed that SAF was independently associated with CVE (HR 1.18 per SD, 95% CI [1.02, 1.37]), coronary heart disease (HR 1.29 per SD, 95% CI [1.02, 1.63]), and congestive heart failure (HR 1.53 per SD, 95% CI [1.14, 2.05]). SAF yielded additional value on CVE risk stratification with enhanced IDI (95% CI) (0.023 [0.001, 0.057]) and continuous NRI (0.377 [0.002, 0.558]) over traditional risk factors. CONCLUSIONS Higher SAF was independently associated with CVE in Chinese adults with T2D and yielded incremental predictive information for CVE. SAF has potential as a prognostic maker for CVE.

Abstract
We searched whether the accumulation of Advanced Glycation End-products (AGEs), reflected by the skin autofluorescence (SAF), could predict diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) during the long-term follow-up of people with type 1 diabetes. During year 2009, we measured the SAF with an AGE-Reader in 206 subjects with type 1 diabetes. DFU and amputations were registered during the 10 following years. The relation between the SAF and later DFU was analyzed by Cox model regression, adjusted for vascular risk factors. The 206 participants were mainly men (55.8%), 51 ± 15 years old, with a 22 ± 13 years diabetes duration. Twelve subjects presented a DFU. Their SAF were higher: 2.61 ± 0.89 AU vs 2.11 ± 0.53 for the others (p = 0.003), related to the risk of DFU (OR:3.69; 95% CI: 1.06-12.79) after adjustment for age, gender, diabetes duration, initial HbA1c, arterial hypertension, history of smoking, blood lipids and use of a statin. Five subjects were amputated, also related to the initial SAF: OR: 11.28 (95% CI: 1.76-79.97) after adjustment for age, gender, duration of diabetes, and HbA1c. The SAF has already been related to diabetic neuropathy and peripheral arterial disease. It predicts DFU in type 1 diabetes, which suggests that AGEs play a role in this highly specific and feared complication.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the value of non-invasive detection of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) in the early screening of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in the community of China. METHODS From January 2018 to January 2019, a total of 912 patients with community health physical examination and no history of T2DM were selected, excluding the results of missing value > 5%. Finally, 906 samples were included in the study, with a response rate of 99.3%. Non-invasive diabetic detection technology was used to detect AGEs in the upper arm skin of all participants, AGE accumulations were classified as ≤P25, P25∼P50, P50∼P75, and >P75; HbA1c, insulin, C-peptide, total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), creatinine, urea, and other indicators were measured at the same time. Univariate analysis of variance was used to compare the differences in general data, biochemical indexes, skin AGE levels, and blood glucose among groups, and logistic regression analysis and latent category analysis were performed. RESULTS In univariate analysis, SBP, FBG, HbA1c, and age were correlated with higher AGE (p < 0.01); TG, TC, HDL, UA, and gender were not positively correlated with AGE (p < 0.01). After controlling for covariates (waist circumference, hip circumference), AGE accumulation was interacted with other variables. The results of latent category analysis (LCA) showed that the health risk factors (HRFs), including age, systolic blood pressure, HbA1c, FBG, triglyceride, total cholesterol, HDL-C, and uric acid, were divided as three groups, and AGE is divided into four categories according to the quartile method, which were low risk (≤P25), low to medium risk (P25∼P50), medium to high (P50∼P75), and high risk (>P75), respectively. The association between the quartile AGE and risk factors of the OR values was 1.09 (95% CI: 1.42, 2.86), 2.61 (95% CI: 1.11, 6.14), and 5.41 (95% CI: 2.42, 12.07), respectively. The moderation analysis using the PROCESS program was used to analyze whether BMI moderated the link between risk factors and AGE accumulation. There was also a significant three-way interaction among HRFs, BMI, and gender for AGE accumulation in the total sample (β = -0.30). CONCLUSION Non-invasive skin detection of AGEs has a certain application value for the assessment of T2DM risk and is related to a variety of risk factors.

Skin autofluorescence of advanced glycation end products and course of affective disorders in the lifelines cohort study, a prospective investigation. J Affect Disord 2020; 276:424-432. [PMID: 32871673 DOI: 10.1016/j.jad.2020.07.108] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2020] [Revised: 05/25/2020] [Accepted: 07/06/2020] [Indexed: 01/19/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Skin autofluorescence (SAF), indicating concentration of advanced glycation end products in the skin and oxidative stress, is cross-sectionally associated with affective disorders. Prospective studies of oxidative stress markers will help to clarify the pathophysiological role of oxidative stress. METHODS Data of a population-based cohort study were used. Presence of major depressive disorder, dysthymia, generalised anxiety disorder, panic disorder or social phobia was assessed at baseline and at 5-year follow-up with the Mini-International Neuropsychiatric Interview. Associations between SAF at baseline and incidence and persistence/recurrence of affective disorders were assessed with logistic regression. RESULTS Of 43,267 participants with no disorder at baseline, 2885 (6.7%) developed an incident disorder during follow-up. In 1360 of 3648 participants (37.3%) with an affective disorder at baseline, a persisting/recurrent disorder was present at follow-up. A modest association existed between SAF and incident affective disorders (OR=1.07 [95%CI 1.03-1.12], P<.001), specifically major depressive disorder (OR=1.11 [95%CI 1.04-1.19], P=.003); this association lost statistical significance after adjustment for sociodemographic factors. Associations between SAF and persistence/recurrence were not significant. LIMITATIONS Many confounders might also act as intermediate: extensive adjustment for confounders caused overfitting and possibly masked effects of SAF on course of affective disorders. Relatively small sample sizes for analyses of SAF and persistence/recurrence of affective disorders resulted in a low power. CONCLUSIONS Increased SAF modestly raises the odds of incident affective disorders, particularly major depressive disorder, providing evidence that oxidative stress plays a role in subsequent occurrence of affective disorders. However, significance of effects faded after adjustment for socioeconomic status.

Abstract
Advanced glycation end-products (AGEs), which bind to type 1 collagen in bone and skin, have been implicated in reduced bone quality. The AGE reader™ measures skin autofluorescence (SAF), which might be regarded as a marker of long-term accumulation of AGEs in tissues. We investigated the association of SAF with bone mineral density (BMD) and fractures in the general population. We studied 2853 individuals from the Rotterdam Study with available SAF measurements (median age, 74.1 years) and with data on prevalent major osteoporotic (MOFs: hip, humerus, wrist, clinical vertebral) and vertebral fractures (VFs: clinical + radiographic Genant's grade 2 and 3). Radiographs were assessed 4 to 5 years before SAF. Multivariate regression models were performed adjusted for age, sex, BMI, creatinine, smoking status, and presence of diabetes and additionally for BMD with interaction terms to test for effect modification. Prevalence of MOFs was 8.5% and of VFs 7%. SAF had a curvilinear association with prevalent MOFs and VFs and therefore, age-adjusted, sex stratified SAF quartiles were used. The odds ratio (OR) (95% confidence interval [CI]) of the second, third and fourth quartiles of SAF for MOFs were as follows: OR 1.60 (95% CI, 1.08-2.35; p = .02); OR 1.30 (95% CI, 0.89-1.97; p = .20), and OR 1.40 (95% CI, 0.95-2.10; p = .09), respectively, with first (lowest) quartile as reference. For VFs the ORs were as follows: OR 1.69 (95% CI, 1.08-2.64; p = .02), OR 1.74(95% CI, 1.11-2.71; p = .01), and OR 1.73 (95% CI, 1.12-2.73; p = .02) for second, third, and fourth quartiles, respectively. When comparing the top three quartiles combined with the first quartile, the OR (95% CI) for MOFs was 1.43 (95% CI, 1.04-2.00; p = .03) and for VFs was 1.72 (95% CI, 1.18-2.53; p = .005). Additional adjustment for BMD did not change the associations. In conclusion, there is evidence of presence of a threshold of skin AGEs below which there is distinctly lower prevalence of fractures. Longitudinal analyses are needed to confirm our cross-sectional findings. © 2020 The Authors. Journal of Bone and Mineral Research published by American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The major challenge for diabetes prevention is early identification of individuals at risk to allow for implementation of measures to delay the onset of future disease. Measures such as fasting plasma glucose (FPG), 2-hour plasma glucose (2hPG), and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) are equally appropriate for identifying pre-diabetes and diabetes, but do not all identify the disease in the same individual. We tested the utility of a diagnostic method combining FPG, 2hPG and HbA1c for early evaluation and easy identification of pre-diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS 531 subjects underwent skin autofluorescence (SAF) and glycemia analyses. We created two classification groups based on the American Diabetes Association diagnosis guidelines: (1) based on 2hPG and (2) based on a new combination of three glycemia parameters (the three-criteria strategy (3-c)). Logistic regression modeling was used to estimate the associations. RESULTS SAF showed high associations for both 3-c definition and 2hPG definition alone. These associations appeared stronger in 3-c than those in 2hPG. The non-invasive SAF measurement outperformed 2hPG in the detection of dysglycemia or pre-diabetes. Stepwise selections identified 1-hour postload glucose (1hPG) as variable identifying pre-diabetes using the 2hPG criterion, and the model based on 1hPG plus SAF appeared to be the best association using the 3-c strategy. CONCLUSIONS 1hPG coupled with SAF showed a strong association in the evaluation of pre-diabetes using the 3-c method.

Abstract
The autofluorescence (AF) characteristics of endogenous fluorophores allow the label-free assessment and visualization of cells and tissues of the human body. While AF imaging (AFI) is well-established in ophthalmology, its clinical applications are steadily expanding to other disciplines. This review summarizes clinical advances of AF techniques published during the past decade. A systematic search of the MEDLINE database and Cochrane Library databases was performed to identify clinical AF studies in extra-ophthalmic tissues. In total, 1097 articles were identified, of which 113 from internal medicine, surgery, oral medicine, and dermatology were reviewed. While comparable technological standards exist in diabetology and cardiology, in all other disciplines, comparability between studies is limited due to the number of differing AF techniques and non-standardized imaging and data analysis. Clear evidence was found for skin AF as a surrogate for blood glucose homeostasis or cardiovascular risk grading. In thyroid surgery, foremost, less experienced surgeons may benefit from the AF-guided intraoperative separation of parathyroid from thyroid tissue. There is a growing interest in AF techniques in clinical disciplines, and promising advances have been made during the past decade. However, further research and development are mandatory to overcome the existing limitations and to maximize the clinical benefits.

Abstract
Background Microvascular complications (MC) have been claimed to increase the risk for cardiovascular disease in diabetic subjects. However, the effect of MC burden on the risk of major vascular outcomes and all-cause mortality in type 1 diabetes is still poorly explored. We evaluated the relationship between microvascular complications burden and incidence of major cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality in subjects with type 1 diabetes. Methods We recruited 774 participants with type 1 diabetes in a single-center observational study over a follow-up of 10.8 ± 2.5 years. Hazard ratios (HR) for cardiovascular outcomes and all-cause death associated with microvascular complications were determined by unadjusted and adjusted Cox regression analysis. Results Out of 774 individuals, 54.9% had no-MC, 32.3% 1 MC, 9.7% 2 MC and 3.1% 3 MC. A total of 54 deaths (7.0%) occurred. Death rate increased from no-MC 2.1% (Ref) to 1 MC 7.2% (HR 3.54 [95% CI 1.59–7.87]), 2 MC 14.7% (HR 6.41 [95% CI 2.65–15.49]) and 3 MC 66.7% (HR 41.73 [95% CI 18.42–94.57], p < 0.0001). After adjustments, HRs were: 1 MC 2.05 (95% CI 0.88–4.76), 2 MC 1.98 (95% CI 0.75–5.21), 3 MC 7.02 (95% CI 2.44–20.20, p = 0.002). Forty-nine subjects (6.7%) had at least one cardiovascular event, and cumulative incidence went from no-MC 2.2% (Ref) to 1 MC 5.0%; (HR 2.27 [95% CI 0.96–5.38]), 2 MC 26.8% (HR 12.88 [95% CI 5.82–28.50]) and 3 MC 40.9% (HR 29.34 [95% CI 11.59–74.25], p < 0.0001). Upon adjustments, HRs were: 1 MC 1.59 (95% CI 0.65–3.88), 2 MC 4.33 (95% CI 1.75–10.74), 3 MC 9.31 (95% CI 3.18–27.25, p < 0.0001). Thirty-five individuals (4.8%) had at least one coronary event, which cumulative incidence increased with MC burden (p < 0.0001). Conclusions In type 1 diabetes, microvascular complications burden increases in an independent dose-dependent manner the risk of major cardiovascular outcomes and all-cause mortality. The presence and number of microvascular complications should be considered in stratifying overall cardiovascular risk in type 1 diabetes.

Cardiovasc Diabetol 2019; 18:157. [PMID: 31733656 PMCID: PMC6858684 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-019-0953-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 69] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/10/2019] [Accepted: 10/25/2019] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Both type 1 and type 2 diabetes are well-established risk factors for cardiovascular disease and early mortality. However, few studies have directly compared the hazards of cardiovascular outcomes and premature death among people with type 1 diabetes to those among people with type 2 diabetes and subjects without diabetes. Furthermore, information about the hazard of cardiovascular disease and early mortality among Asians with type 1 diabetes is sparse, although the clinical and epidemiological characteristics of Asians with type 1 diabetes are unlike those of Europeans. We estimated the hazard of myocardial infarction (MI), hospitalization for heart failure (HF), atrial fibrillation (AF), and mortality during follow-up in Korean adults with type 1 diabetes compared with those without diabetes and those with type 2 diabetes. Methods We used Korean National Health Insurance Service datasets of preventive health check-ups from 2009 to 2016 in this retrospective longitudinal study. The hazard ratios of MI, HF, AF, and mortality during follow-up were analyzed using the Cox regression analyses according to the presence and type of diabetes in ≥ 20-year-old individuals without baseline cardiovascular disease (N = 20,423,051). The presence and type of diabetes was determined based on the presence of type 1 or type 2 diabetes at baseline. Results During more than 93,300,000 person-years of follow-up, there were 116,649 MIs, 135,532 AF cases, 125,997 hospitalizations for HF, and 344,516 deaths. The fully-adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for incident MI, hospitalized HF, AF, and all-cause death within the mean follow-up of 4.6 years were higher in the type 1 diabetes group than the type 2 diabetes [HR (95% CI) 1.679 (1.490–1.893) for MI; 2.105 (1.901–2.330) for HF; 1.608 (1.411–1.833) for AF; 1.884 (1.762–2.013) for death] and non-diabetes groups [HR (95% CI) 2.411 (2.138–2.718) for MI; 3.024 (2.730–3.350) for HF; 1.748 (1.534–1.993) for AF; 2.874 (2.689–3.073) for death]. Conclusions In Korea, the presence of diabetes was associated with a higher hazard of cardiovascular disease and all-cause death. Specifically, people with type 1 diabetes had a higher hazard of cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality compared to people with type 2 diabetes.
