Abstract
Diabetic Parkinson's disease (DP) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease with metabolic syndrome that is increasing worldwide. Emerging research suggests that cannabidiol (CBD) is a neuropharmacological compound that acts against this disease, especially CBD in nano-formulation. The safety of cannabidiol lipid nanoparticles (CBD-LNP) was evaluated by assessing in vitro cytotoxicity in neurons and therapeutic outcomes in a DP animal model, including metabolic parameters and histopathology. CBD-LNPs were fabricated by using a microfluidization technique and showed significantly lower cytotoxicity than the natural form of CBD. The DP rats were induced by streptozotocin followed by a 4-week injection of MPTP with a high-fat diet. Rats were treated orally with a vehicle, CBD, CBD-LNP, or levodopa for 4 weeks daily. As a result, vehicle-treated rats exhibited metabolic abnormalities, decreased striatal dopamine levels, and motor and memory deficits. CBD-LNP demonstrated reduced lipid profiles, enhanced insulin secretion, and restored dopamine levels compared to CBD in the natural form. CBD-LNP also had comparable efficacy to levodopa in ameliorating motor deficits and memory impairment in behavior tests. Interestingly, CBD-LNP presented migration of damaged neuronal cells in the hippocampus more than levodopa. These findings suggest that CBD-LNP holds promise as an intervention addressing both metabolic and neurodegenerative aspects of DP, offering a potential therapeutic strategy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There are little data on changes in insulin sensitivity during the first few years of life following in utero human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and antiretroviral (ARV) exposure. METHODS The Tshilo Dikotla study enrolled pregnant persons with HIV (PWH) (receiving tenofovir/emtricitabine or lamivudine plus dolutegravir or efavirenz) and pregnant individuals without HIV, as well as their liveborn children. Newborns were randomized to receive either zidovudine (AZT) or nevirapine (NVP) postnatal prophylaxis. Homeostasis Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) was assessed at birth and 1, 18, 24, and 36 months of life. We fit linear mixed-effects models to evaluate the association between in utero HIV/ARV exposure and average HOMA-IR from birth through 36 months of life, adjusting for confounders. RESULTS A total of 419 children were included (287 with in utero HIV/ARV exposure and uninfected [CHEU] and 132 without in utero HIV/ARV exposure [CHUU]). CHEU were born to older women (29.6 vs 25.3 years of age) with higher gravidity (3 vs 1). HOMA-IR was persistently higher in CHEU versus CHUU in adjusted analyses (mean difference of 0.07 in log10 HOMA-IR, P = .02) from birth through 36 months of life. Among CHEU, no differences in HOMA-IR were observed from birth through 36 months by in utero ARV exposure status or between AZT and NVP infant prophylaxis arms. CONCLUSIONS In utero HIV/ARV exposure was associated with lower insulin sensitivity throughout the first 36 months of life, indicating persistent early life metabolic disturbances which may raise concern for poorer metabolic health later in life.

Abstract
Prior studies have mainly focused on the association of one specific nutrient with insulin resistance (IR) and endothelial dysfunction and limited studies have assessed the association with different nutrient patterns (NPs). We examined the association between various NPs and IR and endothelial dysfunction among Iranian women. This cross-sectional study was carried out on a sample of 368 female nurses. A 106-items food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) was applied for dietary assessments. Using factor analysis, the relationships between NPs and markers of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR, HOMA-β, and QUICKY), and endothelial dysfunction (E-selectin, sICAM-1, and sVCAM-1) were assessed. Mean age and body mass index of participants were respectively 35.21 years and 24.04 kg/m2. Three major NPs were identified. NP1, named as "dairy, fruits, and vegetables" had high values of potassium, folate, vitamins A and C, magnesium, and beta carotene. No significant association was observed between this NP and insulin resistance or endothelial dysfunction indices. The second NP was full of chromium, selenium, copper, vitamin B6, monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA), thiamin, vitamin D, and iron. Adherence to NP2 (named "legumes, nuts, and protein foods") was associated with lower values of insulin (6.8 ± 1.1 versus 8.4 ± 1.1, P = 0.01), homeostasis model assessment-Insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) (1.3 ± 0.2 versus 1.7 ± 0.2, P = 0.02), and vascular adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1) (444.2 ± 27.9 versus 475.8 ± 28.4, P = 0.03). However, adherence to the third NP, rich in saturated fatty acid (SFA), cholesterol, sodium, zinc, vitamin E, and B12, described as "animal fat and meat + vitamin E", was associated with higher amounts of homeostasis model assessment-β (HOMA-β) (531.3 ± 176.2 versus 48.7 ± 179.8, P = 0.03). In conclusion, following the NP2, correlated with higher intakes of chromium, selenium, copper, vitamin B6, MUFA and thiamin was associated with lower values of insulin, HOMA-IR, and sVCAM-1. Adherence to NP3, rich in SFA, cholesterol, vitamin E, vitamin B12, and zinc was associated with higher levels of HOMA-β.

Abstract
AIMS The widely used dynamic disposition index, derived from oral glucose tolerance testing, is an integrative measure of the homeostatic performance of the insulin-glucose feedback control. Its collection is, however, time consuming and expensive. We, therefore, pursued the question if such a measure can be calculated at baseline/fasting conditions using plasma concentrations of insulin and glucose. METHODS A new fasting-based disposition index (structure parameter inference approach-disposition index [SPINA-DI]) was calculated as the product of the reconstructed insulin receptor gain (SPINA-GR) times the secretory capacity of pancreatic beta cells (SPINA-GBeta). The novel index was evaluated in computer simulations and in three independent, multiethnic cohorts. The objectives were distribution in various populations, diagnostic performance, reliability and correlation to established physiological biomarkers of carbohydrate metabolism. RESULTS Mathematical and in-silico analysis demonstrated SPINA-DI to mirror the hyperbolic relationship between insulin sensitivity and beta-cell function and to represent an optimum of the homeostatic control. It significantly correlates to the oral glucose tolerance test based disposition index and other important physiological parameters. Furthermore, it revealed higher discriminatory power for the diagnosis of (pre)diabetes and superior retest reliability than other static and dynamic function tests of glucose homeostasis. CONCLUSIONS SPINA-DI is a novel simple reliable and inexpensive marker of insulin-glucose homeostasis suitable for screening purposes and a wider clinical application.

Abstract
The gold standard for the measurement of insulin secretion is the hyperglycemic clamp and for insulin sensitivity the hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp, respectively. A number of surrogate indices, derived from plasma glucose and insulin levels at a fasting state or after oral glucose load, have been proposed to estimate β-cell response, and the ability of β-cells to compensate for changes of insulin sensitivity by modulating insulin secretion (disposition index). Starting from the current recommendations for the annual screening of glucose dysregulation in patients with transfusion dependent β-thalassemia (β-TDT), this article summarizes the most frequently used indirect indices of insulin secretion and resistance derived from the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and discusses the strengths and weaknesses of selected indices and the basic concepts underlying each method for the appropriate evaluation of glucose regulation. Basal indices for β-cell function and insulin sensitivity, albeit simple and cheap, have limited usefulness due to a high coefficient variation and the lack of data about response to glucose load. Therefore, measurement of indices during an OGTT, despite being costly and time-consuming, is suggested since it can detect, even subtle, dynamic changes in insulin secretion and glucose handling. In patients with β-TDT, the indices derived from OGTT may offer an additional factor to evaluate the efficiency of iron chelation therapy and detect patients who may need intensification of iron chelation therapy and/or pharmacological intervention.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Coronary heart disease (CHD) is a major complication of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), which causes an adverse prognosis. There is an urgent need to explore effective biomarkers to evaluate the patients' adverse outcomes. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to identify a novel indicator for screening T2DM and T2DM-CHD and predicting adverse prognosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study enrolled 52 healthy individuals, 85 T2DM patients, and 97 T2DM patients combined with CHD. Serum miR-199-3p levels in all study subjects were detected with PCR, and its diagnostic significance was evaluated by receiver operating curve (ROC) analysis. The involvement of miR-199-3p in disease development was assessed by the Chi-square test, and the logistic regression analysis was performed to estimate the risk factor for major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in T2DM-CHD patients. RESULTS Significant downregulation of miR-199-3p was observed in the serum of both T2DM and T2DM-CHD patients, which discriminated patients from healthy individuals and distinguished T2DM and T2DM-CHD patients. Reduced serum miR-199-3p was associated with the increasing blood glucose, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), and homeostasis model assessment-insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR) of T2DM patients and the increasing triglycerides (TG), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), fibrinogen, and total cholesterol (TC) and decreasing high-density lipoprotein (HDL) of T2DM-CHD patients. miR-199-3p was also identified as a biomarker predicting the occurrence of MACE. CONCLUSION Downregulated miR-199-3p could screen the onset of T2DM and its complication with CHD. Reduced serum miR-199-3p was associated with the severe development of T2DM and T2DM-CHD and predicted the adverse outcomes of T2DM-CHD patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) is a biomarker for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, the role of HOMA-IR in the non-diabetic is unclear. This study aimed to determine whether IR measured HOMA-IR value is associated with new onset diabetes as well as vascular disease and can be used as an early predictor for diabetes and vascular diseases in non-diabetic participants. METHODS From a prospective community-based cohort of 10,030 individuals, 4314 individuals younger than 65 years and without diabetes were enrolled and divided into three groups by baseline HOMA-IR tertiles: low (n = 1454), moderate (n = 1414), and high (n = 1446). The primary outcome was new onset T2DM. Secondary outcomes were chronic kidney disease (CKD) and a composite of coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, and stroke as macrovascular events. RESULTS The mean age was 51 years. The prevalence of hypertension and cholesterol and HbA1c were higher in the high HOMA-IR group. New onset T2DM (5.8%) and CKD (12.2%) incidence in the high HOMA-IR group was higher than that in the others. The prevalence of macrovascular events did not differ among groups. High-HOMA-IR was an independent risk factor for new onset T2DM (odds ratio 1.86 [1.17-2.96]; p = 0.01) and CKD (1.49 [1.12-1.98]; p = 0.01). CONCLUSIONS High HOMA-IR was an early predictor of new onset T2DM and CKD, regardless of HbA1c in non-diabetic individuals. Further research on the specific cut off value will be needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Resting heart rate (RHR) has been found to be a potential risk factor for developing type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), with a highly significant heterogeneity among previous studies. Therefore, we examined the association of RHR and risk of incident T2DM among non-diabetic and prediabetic adults. METHODS The study population included 2431 men and 2910 women aged ≥ 20 years without T2DM at baseline (2001-2005). Participants were followed for incident T2DM by about 3-year intervals up to April 2018. The multivariable Cox proportional models were applied to estimate the hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). The models were adjusted for age, body mass index, waist circumference, educational level, physical activity, smoking, hypertension, family history of diabetes, triglycerides/ high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio, and fasting plasma glucose. RESULTS During a median follow-up of 12.2 years, 313 men and 375 women developed T2DM. Interestingly, a significant sex-difference was found (all P-values for sex interaction < 0.025). Among men, compared to the first quintile (< 68 bpm: beats per minute), those who had RHR of over 84 bpm were at higher T2DM risk with a HR (95%CI) of 1.69 (1.16-2.47). Furthermore, considering RHR as a continuous variable, an increase of 10 bpm caused 17% significantly higher risk among men with a HR of 1.17 (1.05-1.30). However, among women, there was no significant association between incident T2DM and RHR. Moreover, among prediabetic participants at baseline, the association of RHR and risk of T2DM progression was generally similar to the general population, which means higher RHR increased the risk of T2DM development only among men with a HR of 1.26 (1.09-1.46) for 10 bpm increase. CONCLUSIONS Among men, being either non-diabetic or prediabetic at baseline, higher RHR can be associated with incident T2DM; however, women didn't show a significant association. Further studies are needed to determine the added value of RHR as a potential modifiable risk factor in screening and risk prediction of incident T2DM.

Abstract
Purpose The prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MetS) is increasing globally and has become a global and national public health problem that cannot be ignored as an independent predictor of cardiovascular events, cancer and all-cause mortality. γ-glutamyl transferase (GGT) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) are associated with insulin resistance, dyslipidemia and oxidative stress. This study was designed to explore the relationship and predictive performance between γ-glutamyl transferase high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (GGT/HDL-C) and MetS. Methods This was a cross-sectional study. MetS was diagnosed from biochemical and anthropometric data in subjects with T2DM. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyses the relationship between GGT/HDL-C ratio, TyG index and HOMA-IR and MetS in subjects with T2DM. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn and the areas under the curve (AUC) were used to assess the ability of these indexes in screening MetS in subjects with T2DM. Statistical differences between the AUC values of these indexes were compared. In addition, we performed subgroup analyses and interactions. Results 769 (70.55%) patients with T2DM were defined as having MetS. patients with MetS had higher anthropometric values and biochemical indicators compared to those without MetS. Multivariate logistic regression analysis of GGT/HDL-C ratio was an independent risk factor for MetS (Per 1 SD increase, OR = 2.49, 95% CI: 1.51, 4.10). According to ROC curve analysis, the value of GGT/HDL-C ratio in predicting MetS in subjects with T2DM was superior to that of TyG index and HOMA-IR. The best cut-off value for GGT/HDL-C prediction was 19.94. Conclusions GGT/HDL-C ratio may be an important predictor of MetS in subjects with T2DM, and its predictive power is stronger than that of TyG index and HOMA-IR. The risk of MetS in subjects with T2DM is increased in the presence of a higher GGT/HDL-C ratio.

Abstract
Fenugreek is a widely used herbal medicine as a complementary therapy for diabetes mellitus. Lots of clinical trials have proved its beneficial effect on glycemic control parameters and lipid profiles. Thus, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of fenugreek as a treatment for type 2 diabetes mellitus. We searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, China Knowledge Resource Integrated Database (CNKI), Korean studies Information Service System (KISS), Research Information Sharing Service (RISS), and ScienceON to select RCTs which used fenugreek targeting hyperglycemia with a control group. We used either a random effect model or a fixed model in a meta-analysis of Fasting blood glucose (FBG), 2 h plasma glucose during a 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) (2-hPG), homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c)/total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high density lipoprotein (HDL-C), low density lipoprotein (LDL-C), body mass index (BMI). After screening, a total of 10 studies (706 participants) remained. Fenugreek significantly reduced FBG, 2-hPG, and HbA1c, but it did not significantly decrease HOMA-IR. Moreover, it significantly improved TC, TG, and HDL-C, while there were no significant differences in LDL-C and BMI. Hepatic or renal toxicity was not observed, and there were no severe adverse events associated with fenugreek despite mild gastrointestinal side effects in some studies. In conclusion, fenugreek improves overall glycemic control parameters and lipid profile safely.

Abstract
This study aimed to determine the association of blood lipid and insulin levels with the development of prediabetes. In this prospective cohort study, we collected and analyzed data related to demographic characteristics, lipid profiles, and insulin parameters at baseline (2008-2012) and at follow-up (2019-2020). A total of 1205 participants were included. The study found that maintained or elevated Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance (HOMO-IR) score and elevated triglyceride (TG) levels from baseline to follow-up were associated with an increased risk of prediabetes. However, the interaction between blood lipids and insulin had no significant effect on the risk of prediabetes. Our findings indicate that elevated TG or HOMA-IR levels are associated with an increased risk of prediabetes. These findings emphasize the need to formulate initiatives that can help reduce dyslipidemia to prevent the onset of prediabetes and diabetes.
