Fluvoxamine inhibits Th1 and Th17 polarization and function by repressing glycolysis to attenuate autoimmune progression in type 1 diabetes. Mol Med 2024; 30:23. [PMID: 38317106 PMCID: PMC10845844 DOI: 10.1186/s10020-024-00791-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/01/2023] [Accepted: 01/24/2024] [Indexed: 02/07/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Fluvoxamine is one of the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) that are regarded as the first-line drugs to manage mental disorders. It has been also recognized with the potential to treat inflammatory diseases and viral infection. However, the effect of fluvoxamine on autoimmune diseases, particularly type 1 diabetes (T1D) and the related cellular and molecular mechanisms, are yet to be addressed. METHOD Herein in this report, we treated NOD mice with fluvoxamine for 2 weeks starting from 10-week of age to dissect the impact of fluvoxamine on the prevention of type 1 diabetes. We compared the differences of immune cells between 12-week-old control and fluvoxamine-treated mice by flow cytometry analysis. To study the mechanism involved, we extensively examined the characteristics of CD4+ T cells with fluvoxamine stimulation using RNA-seq analysis, real-time PCR, Western blot, and seahorse assay. Furthermore, we investigated the relevance of our data to human autoimmune diabetes. RESULT Fluvoxamine not only delayed T1D onset, but also decreased T1D incidence. Moreover, fluvoxamine-treated NOD mice showed significantly attenuated insulitis coupled with well-preserved β cell function, and decreased Th1 and Th17 cells in the peripheral blood, pancreatic lymph nodes (PLNs), and spleen. Mechanistic studies revealed that fluvoxamine downregulated glycolytic process by inhibiting phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)-AKT signaling, by which it restrained effector T (Teff) cell differentiation and production of proinflammatory cytokines. CONCLUSION Collectively, our study supports that fluvoxamine could be a viable therapeutic drug against autoimmunity in T1D setting.

Evaluation of Psychological Resources of Young Adults With Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus During the Transition From Pediatric to Adult Diabetes Clinics: Multicenter Cross-sectional Study. JMIR Form Res 2023; 7:e46513. [PMID: 37247225 DOI: 10.2196/46513] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2023] [Revised: 03/31/2023] [Accepted: 04/10/2023] [Indexed: 05/30/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The transition period of patients with type 1 diabetes from pediatric to adult-oriented health care is associated with poorer glycemic control and less frequent clinic attendance. Fears and anxiety about the unknown, care approach differences in adult settings, and sadness about leaving the pediatric provider all contribute to a patient's reluctance to transition. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to evaluate the psychological parameters of young patients with type 1 diabetes transitioning to an adult outpatient clinic during the first visit. METHODS We examined 50 consecutive patients (n=28, 56% female) transitioning from March 2, 2021, to November 21, 2022, into adult care (3 diabetes centers from 3 regions in southern Poland: A, n=16; B, n=21; and C, n=13) and their basic demographic information. They completed the following psychological questionnaires: State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), Generalized Self-Efficacy Scale, Perceived Stress Scale, Satisfaction with Life Scale, Acceptance of Illness Scale, Multidimensional Health Locus of Control Scale Form C, Courtauld Emotional Control Scale, and Quality of Life Questionnaire Diabetes. We compared their data with those for the general healthy population and patients with diabetes from Polish Test Laboratory validation studies. RESULTS During the first adult outpatient visit, patients' mean age was 19.2 (SD 1.4) years, with a diabetes duration of 9.8 (SD 4.3) years and BMI of 23.5 (SD 3.1) kg/m2. Patients came from diverse socioeconomic backgrounds: 36% (n=18) live in villages, 26% (n=13) live in towns with ≤100,000 inhabitants, and 38% (n=19) live in bigger cities. Regarding therapy type, 68% (n=34) were treated with insulin pump therapy, whereas 32% (n=16) were treated with multiple daily injections. Patients from center A had a mean glycated hemoglobin level of 7.5% (SD 1.2%). There was no difference regarding the level of life satisfaction, perceived level of stress, and state anxiety between the patients and reference populations. Patients had similar health locus of control and negative emotions control to the general population of patients with diabetes. Most patients (n=31, 62%) believe that control over their health depends on themselves, whereas 52% (n=26) believe that it depends mostly on others. Patients had higher levels of suppression of negative emotions-anger, depression, and anxiety-than the age-matched general population. Additionally, the patients were characterized by a higher acceptance of illness and higher level of self-efficacy compared to the reference populations: 64% (n=32) had a high level of self-efficacy and 26% (n=13) had a high level of life satisfaction. CONCLUSIONS This study indicated that young patients transitioning to adult outpatient clinics have good psychological resources and coping mechanisms, which might result in adequate adaptation and adult life satisfaction including future metabolic control. These result also disprove the stereotypes that young people with chronic disease have worse life perspectives when entering adulthood.

Improvement of Selected Psychological Parameters and Quality of Life of Patients With Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus Undergoing Transition From Multiple Daily Injections and Self-Monitoring of Blood Glucose Directly to the MiniMed 780G Advanced Hybrid Closed-Loop System: Post hoc Analysis of a Randomized Control Study. JMIR Form Res 2023; 7:e43535. [PMID: 36692945 PMCID: PMC9906310 DOI: 10.2196/43535] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/14/2022] [Revised: 12/13/2022] [Accepted: 12/13/2022] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND While introducing new technologies and methods of treatment for type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), it seems essential to monitor whether modern technologies in diabetes treatment may improve the psychological and emotional status of patients. OBJECTIVE This study aims to assess the baseline psychological parameters of patients with T1DM during investigation of the direct transition from multiple daily injections (MDI) and self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) to the MiniMed 780G advanced hybrid closed-loop (AHCL) system and to evaluate changes in the psychological well-being and quality of life (QoL) after the transition in these individuals versus the control group. METHODS The trial was a 2-center, randomized controlled, parallel group study. In total, 41 patients with T1DM managed with MDI or SMBG were enrolled and randomized either to the AHCL or the MDI+SMBG group. Of these, 37 (90%) participants (mean age 40.3 years, SD 8.0 years; mean duration of diabetes 17.3, SD 12.1 years; mean hemoglobin A1c [HbA1c] 7.2%, SD 1.0%) completed the study (AHCL: n=20, 54%; MDI+SMBG: n=17, 46%). Psychological parameters (level of stress, coping mechanisms, level of anxiety, self-efficacy level, acceptance of illness, locus of control of illness, life satisfaction, QoL) were measured at baseline and at the end of the study using 10 psychological questionnaires. RESULTS At baseline, the general level of stress of the examined patients was higher than in the general healthy Polish population (P=.001), but coping strategies used in stressful situations were significantly more effective and the level of self-efficacy (P<.001) was much higher than in the general population. The patients in this study accepted their illness more than patients with diabetes from the general Polish population (P<.001), but they felt that their health does not depend on them compared to the general population (P<.001). The overall life satisfaction was similar to that of the general population (P=.161). After 3 months from transition, the AHCL group reported an increase in 4 scales of the QoL-feeling well (P=.042), working (P=.012), eating as I would like (P=.011), and doing normal things (P=.034)-in comparison to the control group, where no significant change occurred. The level of both state anxiety and trait anxiety decreased in the AHCL group: State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) X1 scores (P=.009), STAI X1 stens (P=.013), and STAI X2 scores (P=.022). The AHCL group became more emotion oriented in stressful situations (Coping Inventory for Stressful Situations [CISS] E; P=.043) and significantly less self-blaming after 3 months of the study (P=.020). CONCLUSIONS The results indicate that the patients who decided to take part in the transition study were characterized by higher levels of stress than the general healthy population but had better coping strategies and self-efficacy. Furthermore, transitioning from MDI+SMBG treatment to the AHCL in patients naive to technology may significantly improve psychological well-being and QoL within 3 months. The rapidity of these changes suggests that they may be related to the significant improvement in glycemic outcomes but also significantly less burdened diabetes self-management.

Assessment of the spectrum of depression and bipolarity in patients with type 1 diabetes. Diabetes Metab Res Rev 2023; 39:e3583. [PMID: 36270020 DOI: 10.1002/dmrr.3583] [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: 03/27/2022] [Revised: 07/08/2022] [Accepted: 09/23/2022] [Indexed: 01/10/2023]
Abstract
AIMS The aim of the study was to check the prevalence of unipolarity (depression), bipolarity, as well as the quality of sleep and temperament traits in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1DM) who are provided with optimal conditions of diabetes care and to identify possible risk factors connected with affective traits. MATERIALS AND METHODS Out of the 107 T1DM patients, 78 (54 females, 24 males) were included for the analysis (HbA1c [%] 7.11 ± 1.0, BMI [kg/m2 ] 25.3 ± 5.6; Years of disease duration [N] 13.7 ± 8.3). The patients filled in a set of questionnaires during their regular visit to the outpatient clinic. Three patients from the whole group were on intensive insulin therapy with Multiple Daily Injections (MDI) and Self-Monitoring of Blood Glucose (SMBG), all the rest were on various types of personal insulin pumps (years on insulin pump [N] 9.1 ± 4.5). All the patients were on regular diabetologist care, with regular visits in a Centre for Advanced Technologies in Diabetes (at least every 6 months). RESULTS In QIDS-S (full explanation and abbreviation 26 patients (33.8%) were screened positive for depression, in PHQ (full explanation and ab 57.7% of the patients (45 patients) had symptoms of depression (age was negatively correlated with PHQ score [r = -0.26; p = 0.023]). In CES-D 16 (20%) of the patients assessed their present affect as depressed. None of the analysed clinical variables correlated with depression scores. In the Mood Disorder Questionnaire (MDQ), 16 patients reported having symptoms of bipolarity (20.5% vs. 79.5%). Hypomania Checklist (HCL) analysis indicated 10 patients with bipolar traits (>14) (14.9% vs. 85.1%). None of the analysed clinical variables correlated with HCL results. 11.5% of patients were indicated to be of morning type. Morningness was more often seen in younger patients (r = 0.39; p = 0.001). As many as 46.6% declared that they had poor sleep quality. The temperament traits analysis correlated with clinical parameters: Cyclothymic temperament trait was negatively correlated with age (r = -0.30; p = 0.007) and positively with HbA1c level (r = 0.30; p = 0.025). Hyperthymic temperament was positively correlated with (BMI r = 0.28; p = 0.016). Quality of sleep was highly correlated with depressive symptoms CESD (r = 0.61, p = 0.001), PHQ Score (r = 0.62; p = 0.001), QISD (r = 0.68; p = 0.001) and bipolarity MDQ (p = 0.50, p = 0.001) and HCL (r = 0.42, p = 0.001). In addition, QIDS was shown to be correlated with the following features of temperament: depressive factor (r = 0.41; p = 0.001), irritable factor (r = 0.53; p = 0.001), cyclothymic factor (r = 0.59; p = 0.001), anxious factor (r = 0.58, p = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of affective disorders and poor sleep quality in the examined T1DM patients was much higher than in the general population. Even if the patients have in general good glycaemic control, their mental health condition should not be neglected. Well organised cooperation between patients, diabetologists, psychiatrists and psychotherapists is needed (Clinical Trials Identifier: NCT04616391).

Advances in Antiplatelet Therapy for Dentofacial Surgery Patients: Focus on Past and Present Strategies. MATERIALS 2019; 12:ma12091524. [PMID: 31075947 PMCID: PMC6540095 DOI: 10.3390/ma12091524] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/10/2019] [Revised: 05/06/2019] [Accepted: 05/07/2019] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Nowadays, patients involved in antiplatelet therapy required special attention during oral surgery procedures, due to the antiplatelet drugs assumption. The motivations of the assumption may be different and related to the patient's different systemic condition. For this reason, accordingly to the current international guidelines, different protocols can be followed. The aim of this work is to analyze how the dentist's approach to these patients has changed from the past to the present, evaluating the risk exposure for the patients. METHODS This review paper considered different published papers in literature through quoted scientific channels, going in search of "ancient" works in such a way as to highlight the differences in the protocols undertaken. The analyzed manuscripts are in the English language, taking into consideration reviews, case reports, and case series in such a way as to extrapolate a sufficient amount of data and for evaluating the past therapeutic approaches compared to those of today. RESULTS Colleagues in the past preferred to subject patients to substitution therapy with low molecular weight anticoagulants, by suspending antiplatelet agents to treatment patients, often for an arbitrary number of days. The new guidelines clarify everything, without highlighting an increased risk of bleeding during simple oral surgery in patients undergoing antiplatelet therapy. CONCLUSION Either patients take these medications for different reasons, because of cardiovascular pathologies, recent cardiovascular events, or even for simple prevention, although the latest research shows that there is no decrease of cardiovascular accidents in patients who carry out preventive therapy. Surely, it will be at the expense of the doctor to assess the patient's situation and risk according to the guidelines. For simple oral surgery, it is not necessary to stop therapy with antiplatelet agents because the risk of bleeding has not increased, and is localized to a post-extraction alveolus or to an implant preparation, compared to patients who do not carry out this therapy. From an analysis of the results it emerges that the substitutive therapy should no longer be performed and that it is possible to perform oral surgery safely in patients who take antiplatelet drugs, after a thorough medical history. Furthermore, by suspending therapy, we expose our patients to more serious risks, concerning their main pathology, where present.

The Association between Depression and Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus: Inflammatory Cytokines as Ferrymen in between? Mediators Inflamm 2019; 2019:2987901.

Abstract
The depression incidence is much higher in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM), and the majority of these cases remain under-diagnosed. Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D) is now widely thought to be an organ-specific autoimmune disease. As a chronic autoimmune condition, T1D is characterized by T cell-mediated selective loss of insulin-producing β-cells. The age of onset of T1D is earlier than T2D, and T1D patients have an increased vulnerability to depression due to its diagnosis and treatment burden occurring in a period when the individuals are young. The literature has suggested that inflammatory cytokines play a wide role in both diseases. In this review, the mechanisms behind the initiation and propagation of the autoimmune response in T1D and depression are analyzed, and the contribution of cytokines to both conditions is discussed. This review outlines the immunological mechanism of T1D and depression, with a particular emphasis on the role of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), IL-1β, and interferon-γ (IFN-γ) cytokines and their signaling pathways. The purpose of this review is to highlight the possible pathways of the cytokines shared by these two diseases via deciphering their cytokine cascades. They may provide a basic groundwork for future study of the possible mechanism that links these two diseases and to develop new compounds that target the same pathway but can conquer two diseases.

Abstract
Background and Objectives About 5% of the world's population is affected by diabetes; these patients must be further treated during medical and surgical treatments. These patients, due to the glycemic conditions, realize during their life multiorgan changes, in different body districts. Moreover, this condition obliges them to undertake hypoglycemic therapies. Diabetes is a risk factor for many diseases, including those concerning the oral district with immunological implications. Materials and Methods A comprehensive review of the literature was conducted according to PRISMA guidelines accessing the NCBI PubMed database. Authors conducted the search of articles in English language. The results of the last 10 years have been considered, which present useful information regarding the oral conditions. A total of 17 relevant studies were included in the review. The study evaluated only papers with specific inclusion criteria regarding oral health. The works initially taken into consideration were 782; subsequently applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria, there were 42 works. After a careful analysis of the work obtained by two academics who have worked separately, there have been 17 studies. All data from the studies were compared and many of these confirmed alteration in the oral district. Results The studies taken into consideration evaluated different factors, such as OHRQoL, QoL, and oral alterations, involving soft tissue, dental structures, and postrehabilitative complications, as well as immunological alterations. Conclusions We can affirm, in conclusion, that this study has brought to light those that are complications due to diabetic pathology, from different points of view. The psychological and psychosocial alterations, certainly present in these patients, are probably due to local and systemic alterations; this is confirmed by the correlation between oral health and quality of life reported by the patients.

Abstract
This systematic review is to explore the prevalence of depression in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in China. Articles of prevalence rates for depression in adult RA patients published before October 2015 were identified from PubMed, Embase, The Cochrane Library, CNKI, CBM, VIP, and Wanfang database and other internet databases. Relevant journals and the recommendations of expert panels were also searched manually. Two independent reviewers searched and assessed the literature. Therelevant data were applied with Meta-Analyst 3.13 software, and the forest plot and funnel plot were performed. 21 studies with a total of 4447 patients were selected to be enrolled in this study. The prevalence of depression by analyzing the effect size was 48% [95% CI (41%, 56%)]. The prevalence of minor depression and dysthymic disorder was 30% [95%CI (23%, 38%)], and the moderate or major depression was 18% [95%CI (11%, 29%)], respectively. Subgroup analysis showed that the depression rate of female RA patients was higher than male. The depression rate in the central and western areas were higher than that of the eastern region of China, the prevalence level estimated by the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS) was higher than estimated by other tools. Sensitivity analysis showed that the pooled effect size had good stability and reliability, To be conclusive, the prevalence rate of depression in RA patients is 48%, which suggesting that medical staff should pay more attention to depression in adult patients with RA.
