Association between low birth weight and impaired glucose tolerance in children: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Front Pediatr 2024; 12:1362076. [PMID: 38783917 PMCID: PMC11112083 DOI: 10.3389/fped.2024.1362076] [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: 12/27/2023] [Accepted: 04/23/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Background A potential association between the onset of diabetes and normal birth weight (NBW) has been discovered. Diverse conclusions and study methodologies exist regarding the connection between low birth weight (LBW) and impaired glucose tolerance in children, underscoring the need for further robust research. Our institution is embarking on this study to thoroughly examine the association between LBW and impaired glucose tolerance in children. Methods We conducted searches on Cochrane Library, ScienceDirect, EMBASE, PubMed, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Chinese Biomedical Literature data (CBM) online database, VIP full-text Database, and Wanfang Database to identify correlation analyses or case-control studies investigating the relationship between LBW and abnormal glucose tolerance in children. The search spanned from January 2010 to September 2023. The quality of observational studies was evaluated using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) tool. Data synthesis was performed using the statistical software RevMan 5.3 for meta-analysis. Results Based on the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analysis (PRISMA) guidelines, we finally included 10 clinical control studies consisting of a total of 2971 cases. There wasn't considerably change in blood sugar levels among LBW, NBW and high birth weight (HBW) infants (P > 0.05). There was no significant difference in insulin levels between LBW infants and NBW infants (P > 0.05). The HOMA-IR of LBW infants was considerably higher than that of NBW infants (P < 0.05). The risk of abnormal glucose tolerance in LBW infants was 0.42 times higher than that in NBW and HBW infants [Fisher's Z = 0.42, 95% CI = (0.09, 0.75), P = 0.01]. Conclusion LBW is associated with an increased risk of abnormal glucose tolerance, as indicated by elevated HOMA-IR level in LBW infants compared to NBW and HBW pediatric population. Further research is needed to confirm and expand upon these findings to better understand the complex relationship between LBW and impaired glucose tolerance in children.

Abnormal Glucose Tolerance in Women Diagnosed With Gestational Diabetes (WHO 2013) 10 Years After Index Pregnancy. J Endocr Soc 2024; 8:bvae013. [PMID: 38328480 PMCID: PMC10849116 DOI: 10.1210/jendso/bvae013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2023] [Indexed: 02/09/2024] Open
Abstract
Context It is not clear if the risk of abnormal glucose tolerance (AGT) is attenuated in the long-term in women diagnosed with gestational diabetes (GDM) using the World Health Organization (WHO) 2013 criteria and who have received appropriate treatment during pregnancy. Objective We aimed to assess the long-term prevalence of AGT and other cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors in this cohort. Methods A retrospective cohort follow-up study was conducted of 37 and 107 women diagnosed with and without GDM respectively using the WHO 2013 criteria between June 2010 and December 2010. Women were invited to attend our center, where they underwent a 75-g oral glucose tolerance test, blood and urine collection, body measurements, and electrocardiography. Main outcome measure included the development of AGT using the American Diabetes Association criteria. Results Sixteen (43.2%) women with GDM compared to 5 (4.7%) women with normal glucose tolerance (NGT) at index pregnancy had AGT (P < .001). In the GDM group, 10 (27.0%), 7 (18.9%), and 4 (10.8%) women had impaired fasting glucose (IFG), impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), respectively. In the NGT group, 2 (1.9%), 3 (2.8%), and 1 (0.9%) woman had IFG, IGT, and T2DM, respectively. Women with AGT also had an unfavorable metabolic profile including obesity, hypertension, insulin resistance, and dyslipidemia. Conclusion Women treated for GDM (WHO 2013 criteria) remain at increased risk for developing AGT and adverse CVD risk factors as early as a decade after diagnosis. Continued efforts are needed to accurately follow this population to address modifiable risk factors.

Serum homocysteine level in newly diagnosed young patients with abnormal glucose tolerance. SAGE Open Med 2023; 11:20503121231195602. [PMID: 37655304 PMCID: PMC10467175 DOI: 10.1177/20503121231195602] [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: 04/05/2023] [Accepted: 07/31/2023] [Indexed: 09/02/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Hyperhomocysteinemia is an emerging risk factor causing early-onset cardiovascular events. The objective of the study was to assess serum homocysteine levels in newly diagnosed young persons (age < 30 years) with abnormal glucose tolerance. Methodology This cross-sectional study included 40 young participants with newly diagnosed abnormal glucose tolerance (including prediabetes and diabetes mellitus) and an equal number of young persons with normal glucose tolerance (normal glucose tolerance vs prediabetes vs. diabetes mellitus-age (years): 25.0 (22.0, 28.0) vs 25.50 (21.50, 27.0) vs 28.0 (25.0, 29.0), median (interquartile range)). Glycemic status was diagnosed by American Diabetes Association, 2021 criteria. After taking clinical information, fasting blood was collected to measure homocysteine by chemiluminescent immunoassay. Results Homocysteine level was different across the spectrum of glycemic status (normal glucose tolerance vs. prediabetes vs. diabetes mellitus: 15.57 (13.89-20.71) vs 13.19 (11.40-18.11) vs 12.27 (9.97-14.42) µmol/L; median (interquartile range); p = 0.006). Serum homocysteine was significantly elevated in participants with normal glucose tolerance than diabetes mellitus (p = 0.006) but statistically similar in prediabetes in comparison to both normal glucose tolerance and diabetes mellitus (p = NS for both). Homocysteine level was above the normal level in 47.5% of participants with normal glucose tolerance and in 22.5% with abnormal glucose tolerance (p = 0.019). Conclusions Patients under 30 years with diabetes mellitus had lower homocysteine levels than those with normal glucose tolerance.

Dietary Patterns Associated with Abnormal Glucose Tolerance following Gestational Diabetes Mellitus: The MyNutritype Study. Nutrients 2023; 15:2819. [PMID: 37375723 DOI: 10.3390/nu15122819] [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: 05/16/2023] [Revised: 06/14/2023] [Accepted: 06/18/2023] [Indexed: 06/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Abnormal glucose tolerance (AGT), which includes type 2 diabetes and pre-diabetes, is highly prevalent in women post gestational diabetes mellitus (post-GDM). Dietary patterns have been associated with the risk of developing AGT in women post-GDM, but evidence in Asian populations is sparse. This study aimed to determine the association between a posteriori dietary patterns and AGT in women post-GDM. This cross-sectional study recruited 157 women post-GDM (mean age 34.8 years) from Seri Kembangan Health Clinic and Universiti Putra Malaysia. AGT was diagnosed according to the Malaysian Clinical Practice Guidelines using a 75 g 2 h oral glucose tolerance test or HbA1c. Food intake was assessed using the 2014 Malaysian Adult Nutrition Survey food frequency questionnaire. Five dietary patterns were derived using principal component analysis: 'Unhealthy', 'Fish-eggs-fruits-vegetables', 'Cereals-confectionaries', 'Legumes-dairy', and 'Meat-sugar-sweetened-beverages'. After adjusting for sociodemographic characteristics and total energy intake, the 'Cereals-confectionaries' dietary pattern was significantly associated with AGT (adjusted odds ratio 1.536, p = 0.049). Targeted lifestyle modification, including dietary intervention, for women post-GDM is warranted to reduce their risk of AGT and its complications.

The NDDG criteria versus the IADPSG or the ADA criteria for diagnosing early-onset gestational diabetes mellitus or abnormal glucose tolerance. Int J Gynaecol Obstet 2023; 160:906-914. [PMID: 36087278 PMCID: PMC10087419 DOI: 10.1002/ijgo.14453] [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: 06/21/2022] [Revised: 08/11/2022] [Accepted: 08/17/2022] [Indexed: 11/12/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze the effects of substituting the National Diabetes Data Group (NDDG) criteria with the International Association of Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Groups (IADPSG) or American Diabetes Association (ADA) criteria for the diagnosis of early-onset gestational diabetes mellitus (Early-GDM) or first trimester abnormal glucose tolerance (1 t-AGT). METHODS A retrospective cohort study was conducted of 3200 women: 400 with Early-GDM, 800 with GDM, and 2000 with Non-GDM, according to the NDDG criteria. Rates of women with missed and new Early-GDM according to the IADPSG or ADA criteria were calculated. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to compare perinatal outcomes between groups. RESULTS Using the IADPSG criteria, 61.6% of women with Early-GDM according to the NDDG were undiagnosed (Missed-Early-GDM group), and 25.9% of women with GDM and 15.7% of women with Non-GDM were diagnosed with Early-GDM (New-Early-GDM groups). Perinatal outcomes were worse in Missed-Early-GDM than in Non-GDM and better in New-Early-GDM groups than in the Early-GDM group. According to the ADA recommendations, only 11.8% of women with Early-GDM according to the NDDG criteria were diagnosed. CONCLUSION Replacing the NDDG recommendations for the diagnosis of Early-GDM with the IADPSG or ADA criteria would mean depriving a large number of women with AGT and higher risk of adverse perinatal outcomes from early treatment and treating others with lower risk.

Adiponectin, IGFBP-1 and -2 are independent predictors in forecasting prediabetes and type 2 diabetes. Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2023; 13:1092307. [PMID: 36686443 PMCID: PMC9849561 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2022.1092307] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/07/2022] [Accepted: 12/05/2022] [Indexed: 01/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective Adiponectin and insulin-like growth factor (IGF) binding proteins IGFBP-1 and IGFBP-2 are biomarkers of insulin sensitivity. IGFBP-1 reflects insulin sensitivity in the liver, adiponectin in adipose tissue and IGFBP-2 in both tissues. Here, we study the power of the biomarkers adiponectin, IGFBP-1, IGFBP-2, and also included IGF-I and IGF-II, in predicting prediabetes and type 2 diabetes (T2D) in men and women with normal oral glucose tolerance (NGT). Design Subjects with NGT (35-56 years) recruited during 1992-1998 were re-investigated 8-10 years later. In a nested case control study, subjects progressing to prediabetes (133 women, 164 men) or to T2D (55 women, 98 men) were compared with age and sex matched NGT controls (200 women and 277 men). Methods The evaluation included questionnaires, health status, anthropometry, biochemistry and oral glucose tolerance test. Results After adjustment, the lowest quartile of adiponectin, IGFBP-1 and IGFBP-2 associated independently with future abnormal glucose tolerance (AGT) in both genders in multivariate analyses. High IGFs predicted weakly AGT in women. In women, low IGFBP-2 was the strongest predictor for prediabetes (OR:7.5), and low adiponectin for T2D (OR:29.4). In men, low IGFBP-1 was the strongest predictor for both prediabetes (OR:13.4) and T2D (OR:14.9). When adiponectin, IGFBP-1 and IGFBP-2 were combined, the ROC-AUC reached 0.87 for women and 0.79 for men, higher than for BMI alone. Conclusion Differences were observed comparing adipocyte- and hepatocyte-derived biomarkers in forecasting AGT in NGT subjects. In women the strongest predictor for T2D was adiponectin and in men IGFBP-1, and for prediabetes IGFBP-2 in women and IGFBP-1 in men.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the relationship between abnormal glucose tolerance during pregnancy and maternal-fetal outcomes, after categorizing women into groups with different levels of gestational abnormal glucose tolerance. METHODS A total of 1858 pregnant women who received two-step screening for gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) at Fooyin University Hospital were categorized into four groups, according to their glucose abnormalities, and their maternal-fetal outcomes were investigated from October 2015 to June 2020. RESULTS Among the groups having different levels of abnormal glucose tolerance, there were significant differences and trends in mother's age, currently married status, and prepregnancy overweight or obesity, incidences of cesarean section, preterm, and gestational hypertension or preeclampsia; and with respect to neonatal incidence of large for gestational age (LGA), average weight, and average height (p < 0.05). After adjusting for potential factors, there were higher incidences of cesarean section (AOR = 1.71; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.12-2.61), preterm (AOR = 2.20; 95% CI: 1.23-3.91), neonatal LGA (AOR = 4.94; 95% CI: 2.87-8.51), and neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) admission (AOR = 2.66; 95% CI: 1.14-6.24) in the GDM group, relative to the control group. Furthermore, the women in the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT)-1 group had a higher incidence of neonatal LGA when compared with the women in the normal group (AOR = 2.31; 95% CI: 1.02-5.33). CONCLUSIONS We found higher incidences of cesarean section, preterm, and neonatal LGA and NICU admission in the GDM women, and a higher incidence of neonatal LGA in the OGTT-1 group, relative to control group.

Oral Glucose Tolerance Test in Patients with Cystic Fibrosis Compared to the Overweight and Obese: A Different Approach in Understanding the Results. CHILDREN (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 9:533. [PMID: 35455577 PMCID: PMC9025919 DOI: 10.3390/children9040533] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2022] [Revised: 04/05/2022] [Accepted: 04/06/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
(1) Background: In cystic fibrosis (CF), the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) is recommended from 10 years old annually to screen and diagnose cystic fibrosis-related diabetes (CFRD). Alternative OGTT characteristics (glucose curve shape, time to glucose peak, one-hour glucose value, and three-hour glucose value with the new shape curve) were studied in other populations considered at high risk for diabetes; (2) Methods: The study analyses classical and alternative OGGT characteristics from 44 children (22 CF, 22 obese without CF), mean age: 12.9 ± 2.2 years evaluated in a single-center from Romania. (3) Results: In 59.1% of children with CF, the predominant OGTT pattern was: abnormal glucose metabolism or CFRD, with a monophasic curve shape, a late peak glucose level, and 1 h glucose ≥ 155 mg/dL, showing a very different pattern compared with sex and age-matched obese children. Statistical estimation agreement between the late glucose peak (K = 0.60; p = 0.005), the 1 h glucose ≥ 155 mg/dL during OGTT (K = 0.69, p = 0.001), and the classical method of interpretation was found. (4) Conclusions: Late peak glucose and 1 h glucose level ≥ 155 mg/dL during OGTT can be used for diagnosing the early glucose metabolism alteration in children with CF.

Abstract
PURPOSE Impaired incretin secretion may contribute to the defective insulin secretion and abnormal glucose tolerance (AGT) that associate with worse clinical outcomes in pancreatic insufficient cystic fibrosis (PI-CF). The study objective was to test the hypothesis that dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor-induced increases in intact incretin hormone [glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP)] concentrations augment insulin secretion and glucagon suppression and lower postprandial glycemia in PI-CF with AGT. METHODS 26 adults from Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and University of Pennsylvania CF Center with PI-CF and AGT [defined by oral glucose tolerance test glucose (mg/dL): early glucose intolerance (1-h ≥ 155 and 2-h < 140), impaired glucose tolerance (2-h ≥ 140 and < 200 mg/dL), or diabetes (2-h ≥ 200)] were randomized to a 6-month double-blind trial of DPP-4 inhibitor sitagliptin 100 mg daily or matched placebo; 24 completed the trial (n = 12 sitagliptin; n = 12 placebo). Main outcome measures were mixed-meal tolerance test (MMTT) responses for intact GLP-1 and GIP, insulin secretory rates (ISRs), glucagon suppression, and glycemia and glucose-potentiated arginine (GPA) test-derived measures of β- and α-cell function. RESULTS Following 6-months of sitagliptin vs placebo, MMTT intact GLP-1 and GIP responses increased (P < 0.001), ISR dynamics improved (P < 0.05), and glucagon suppression was modestly enhanced (P < 0.05) while GPA test responses for glucagon were lower. No improvements in glucose tolerance or β-cell sensitivity to glucose, including for second-phase insulin response, were found. CONCLUSIONS In glucose intolerant PI-CF, sitagliptin intervention augmented meal-related incretin responses with improved early insulin secretion and glucagon suppression without affecting postprandial glycemia.

Abstract
We report on a 6-year and 11-month old girl with short stature, microcephaly, proboscis nose, small teeth, left breast Tanner stage II, and nasopharynx adenoid hypertrophy. Her gestational age was 37 weeks and birth weight was 800 g. Her growth hormone peak was higher than 35.2 ng/ml, luteinizing hormone peak 8.97 IU/l, and blood glucose of 120 min 7.82 mmol/l in oral glucose tolerance test. Genetic testing revealed two novel heterozygous mutations in the PCNT gene, an insertion mutation at c.1828dupT (p.S610Ffs*32), and a splice site mutation at c.1207 + 1G>A, which were inherited from healthy carrier patients. This case shows that MOPDII can be associated with central precocious puberty and impaired glucose tolerance in addition to intrauterine growth restriction, postpartum growth defect, and microcephaly.

Diabetes and Prediabetes in Children With Cystic Fibrosis: A Systematic Review of the Literature and Recommendations of the Italian Society for Pediatric Endocrinology and Diabetes (ISPED). Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2021; 12:673539.

Abstract
Cystic fibrosis related diabetes (CFRD) is a comorbidity of cystic fibrosis (CF) that negatively impacts on its clinical course. Prediabetes is an important predictor of either CFRD development and unfavorable prognosis of CF in both pediatric and adult patients. International guidelines recommend insulin only in case of CFRD diagnosis. Whether early detection and treatment of prediabetes may contribute to improve the clinical course of CF is still debated. A subgroup of pediatric diabetologists of the Italian Society for Pediatric Endocrinology and Diabetology (ISPED) performed a systematic review of the literature based on predefined outcomes: impact of pre-diabetes on clinical outcomes and on the risk of developing CFRD; diagnosis of diabetes and pre-diabetes under 10 years of age; effectiveness of therapy on glycemic control, impact of therapy on pulmonary function and nutritional status. Thirty-one papers were selected for the analysis data presented in these papers were reported in tables sorted by outcomes, including comprehensive evidence grading according to the GRADE approach. Following the grading of the quality of the evidence, the entire ISPED diabetes study group achieved consensus for the Italian recommendations based on both evidence and clinical experience. We concluded that in patients with CF, prediabetes should be carefully considered as it can evolve into CFRD. In patients with CF and prediabetic conditions, after complete evaluation of the OGTT trend, glucometrics, glycemic values measured during pulmonary exacerbations and/or steroid therapy, early initiation of insulin therapy could have beneficial effects on clinical outcomes of patients with CF and prediabetes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to describe the status of abnormal glucose tolerance with a longer duration after delivery among women with prior gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in a rural community of China, and to explore the influence of socio-demographic factors, GDM-related factors (family history of diabetes, number of children, receipt of treatment for GDM), psychosocial factors (perceived stress, self-efficacy, and social support), lifestyle behaviors (physical activity, sedentary activity, fruit or vegetables intake), and obesity indicators (body mass index and waist circumferences) on abnormal glucose tolerance. PATIENTS AND METHODS A cross-sectional descriptive survey was conducted among women with prior GDM in two county-level hospitals in Western and Eastern Hunan, China from November 2017 to June 2018. Under the guidance of life course theory, data were collected using self-report measures of socio-demographic and GDM-related factors as well as psychosocial factors (perceived stress, self-efficacy, and social support) and postpartum lifestyle behaviors (physical activity, sedentary activity, and fruit and vegetable intake). Additionally, a 75-g oral glucose tolerance test was conducted, and weight, height, and waist circumference were measured on site. RESULTS A total of 425 women were included in this study, with an average postpartum duration of 18.04 months. Of these women, 20.9% had abnormal glucose tolerance (AGT). A multivariate analysis indicated that the proportion of abnormal glucose tolerance increased with increased age (OR = 2.13; 1.27-3.57, p=0.004), ethnic minority (OR: 1.62, 95% CI: 0.96-2.72, p=0.069), lower educational levels (OR:0.58, 95% CI: 0.33-1.02, p=0.057), receipt of treatment for GDM during pregnancy (OR =1.93; 1.11-3.37, p=0.020) and larger waist circumference (OR = 1.08; 1.05-1.12, p=0.000). CONCLUSION More than one-fifth of the women with GDM in rural China had progression to AGT. More postpartum programs aimed at reducing waist circumference are warranted to delay or prevent progression to type 2 diabetes mellitus for rural Chinese women with prior GDM.

Abstract
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a common condition with increasing prevalence worldwide. GDM is associated with an increased risk for maternal and neonatal complications. In this review we provide an overview of the most recent evidence on the long-term metabolic risk associated with GDM in the offspring. We conducted an extensive literature search on PubMed and Embase between February 2019 and December 2019. We performed a narrative review including 20 cohort studies, one cross-sectional study, and two randomized controlled trials. Our review shows that the prevalence of overweight/obesity and glucose intolerance is higher in children exposed to GDM compared to unexposed children. Maternal overweight is an important confounding factor, but recent studies show that in general the association remains significant after correction for maternal overweight. There is limited evidence suggesting that the association between GDM and adverse metabolic profile in the offspring becomes more significant with increasing offspring age and is also more pronounced in female offspring than in male offspring. More research is needed to evaluate whether treatment of GDM can prevent the long-term metabolic complications in the offspring.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the long-term prognostic value of insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 1 in patients with acute myocardial infarction. METHODS Patients ( n = 180) with admission glucose < 11 mmol/L without previously known diabetes admitted for an acute myocardial infarction in 1998-2000 were followed for mortality and cardiovascular events (first of cardiovascular mortality/acute myocardial infarction/stroke/severe heart failure) until the end of 2011 (median 11.6 years). Fasting levels of insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 1 at day 2 were related to outcome in Cox proportional hazard regression analyses. RESULTS Median age was 64 years, 69% were male and median insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 1 was 20 µg/L. Total mortality was 34% ( n = 61) and 44% ( n = 80) experienced a cardiovascular event during a median follow-up time of 11.6 years. After age adjustment, insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 1 was associated with all-cause (1.40; 1.02-1.93, p = 0.039) and cancer mortality (2.09; 1.15-3.79, p = 0.015) but not with cardiovascular death ( p = 0.29) or cardiovascular events ( p = 0.57). After adjustments also for previous myocardial infarction, previous heart failure and body mass index, insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 1 was still associated with all-cause mortality (1.38; 1.01-1.89, p = 0.046). CONCLUSION In patients with acute myocardial infarction without previously known diabetes, high insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 1 was associated with long-term all-cause and cancer mortality but not with cardiovascular events.

Abstract
This review highlights the increased risk of cardiovascular disease and the dismal prognosis after acute coronary events when diabetes is present. Although there have been improvements in this area, diabetes still confers an increased risk. In order to achieve successful outcomes in individuals with diabetes, extensive treatment of risk factors and the use of all available evidence-based therapies are needed. In this context, glucose-lowering therapies and antithrombotic and revascularisation strategies are detailed in this review. Emerging data indicate that novel glucose-lowering drugs may impact cardiovascular outcome with mechanisms that are beyond glucose control. In addition, this review addresses hidden diabetes and impaired glucose tolerance in patients with acute and stable coronary artery disease and how they influence future cardiovascular risk.

Abstract
RATIONALE In cystic fibrosis, abnormal glucose tolerance is associated with decreased lung function and worsened outcomes. Translational evidence indicates that abnormal glucose tolerance may begin in early life. OBJECTIVES To determine whether very young children with cystic fibrosis have increased abnormal glucose tolerance prevalence compared with control subjects. The secondary objective was to compare area under the curve for glucose and insulin in children with cystic fibrosis with control subjects. METHODS This is a prospective multicenter study in children ages 3 months to 5 years with and without cystic fibrosis. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Oral glucose tolerance testing with glucose, insulin, and C-peptide was sampled at 0, 10, 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes. Twenty-three children with cystic fibrosis and nine control subjects had complete data. All control subjects had normal glucose tolerance. Nine of 23 subjects with cystic fibrosis had abnormal glucose tolerance (39%; P = 0.03). Of those, two met criteria for cystic fibrosis-related diabetes, two indeterminate glycemia, and six impaired glucose tolerance. Children with cystic fibrosis failed to exhibit the normal increase in area under the curve insulin with age observed in control subjects (P < 0.01), despite increased area under the curve glucose (P = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS Abnormal glucose tolerance is notably prevalent among young children with cystic fibrosis. Children with cystic fibrosis lack the normal increase in insulin secretion that occurs in early childhood despite increased glucose. These findings demonstrate that glycemic abnormalities begin very early in cystic fibrosis, possibly because of insufficient insulin secretion.

Long-term prognosis is related to mid-term changes of glucometabolic status in patients with acute myocardial infarction treated invasively. Kardiol Pol 2016; 75:117-125. [PMID: 27714713 DOI: 10.5603/kp.a2016.0128] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/13/2016] [Revised: 06/28/2016] [Accepted: 06/21/2016] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Glucometabolic status (GS) in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has an impact on prognosis, but it may change over time. AIM To evaluate the prognosis after AMI treated invasively with respect to changes in GS assessed by oral glucose tolerance test at discharge and at mid-term follow-up visit (FU-visit). METHODS Glucometabolic status was assessed by two-hour post-load glycaemia and defined as abnormal glucose tolerance (AGT) or normal glucose tolerance (NGT). Out of 454 in-hospital AMI survivors, 368 (81%) patients completed an FU-visit and were divided into four groups with respect to GS at discharge and FU-visit: group 1 - AGT at discharge and FU-visit (n = 101); group 2 - AGT at discharge and NGT at FU-visit (n = 48); group 3 - NGT at discharge and AGT at FU-visit (n = 114); and group 4 - NGT at discharge and FU-visit (n = 105). All-cause mortality was compared between groups with log-rank test. RESULTS Median time from AMI to FU-visit was seven months. Median remote follow-up duration after AMI was 31 months. Two-hour post load glycaemia was significantly higher in patients with confirmed AGT at FU-visit than in other groups. Mortality was higher in group 1 (11.9%) than in group 2 (2.1%; p = 0.034) and group 4 (2.9%; p = 0.009). Mortality rates between group 2 and 4 were similar (2.1% vs. 2.9%; p = 0.781). There was no significant difference in mortality between group 1 and group 3 (11.9% vs. 6.1%; p = 0.114). Mortality in group 3 was over two-fold higher than in group 4; however, this difference was statistically non-significant (6.1% vs. 2.9%; p = 0.247). CONCLUSIONS Prognosis for patients with confirmed AGT was unfavourable; however, patients with AGT at discharge, in whom GS improved, had similar mortality to subjects with persistent NGT. The major clinical implication from this study is the finding that reassessment of GS by repeated oral glucose tolerance test has significant prognostic value and makes initial risk stratification performed at discharge more reliable.

Prenatal depressive symptoms and abnormalities of glucose tolerance during pregnancy among Hispanic women. Arch Womens Ment Health 2014; 17:65-72. [PMID: 24057869 PMCID: PMC4810004 DOI: 10.1007/s00737-013-0379-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2013] [Accepted: 08/27/2013] [Indexed: 12/16/2022]
Abstract
The aim of this study is to prospectively examine the association between maternal depressive symptoms in early pregnancy and risk of abnormal glucose tolerance (AGT) and impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) in mid-pregnancy. We evaluated this association among 934 participants in Proyecto Buena Salud, a prospective cohort study of Hispanic (predominantly Puerto Rican) women in Western Massachusetts. Depressive symptoms were assessed in early pregnancy using the 10-item Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale. Scores ≥13 indicated at least probable minor depression and scores ≥15 indicated probable major depression. AGT and IGT were diagnosed using American Diabetes Association criteria. In early pregnancy, 247 (26.5 %) participants experienced at least minor depression and 163 (17.4 %) experienced major depression. A total of 123 (13.2 %) were classified with AGT and 56 (6.0 %) were classified with IGT. In fully-adjusted models, the odds ratio for AGT associated with minor depression was 1.20 (95 % CI 0.77-1.89) and for major depression was 1.34 (95 % CI 0.81-2.23). The odds ratio for IGT associated with minor depression was 1.22 (95 % CI 0.62-2.40) and for major depression was 1.53 (95 % CI 0.73-3.22). We did not observe an association with continuous screening glucose measures. Findings in this prospective cohort of Hispanic women did not indicate a statistically significant association between minor or major depression in early pregnancy and AGT or screening glucose values in mid-pregnancy. Due to the small number of cases of IGT, our ability to evaluate the association between depression and IGT risk was constrained.

Abstract
AIM We compare performance of noninvasive skin fluorescence spectroscopy (SFS), fasting plasma glucose (FPG), and hemoglobin A1c (A1C) for detection of abnormal glucose tolerance (AGT). METHODS The NSEEDS trial evaluated SFS, FPG, and A1C in an at-risk population of 479 previously undiagnosed subjects from nine US centers, each of whom received a 75 g, 2 h oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). Skin fluorescence spectra were collected and analyzed with SCOUT DS® devices. Disease truth was AGT, defined as OGTT ≥140 mg/dl. Abnormal glucose tolerance sensitivity, false positive rate (FPR), and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were computed for each measurement technique. Skin fluorescence spectroscopy reproducibility was also assessed. RESULTS The AGT sensitivity of SFS was 68.2%, higher than that of FPG (thresholds of 100 and 110 mg/dl) and A1C (thresholds of 5.7% and 6.0%). The FPR of SFS was 37.7%, comparable to A1C at the 5.7% threshold (30.7%). Partial ROC areas of SFS, FPG, and A1C were similar for FPRs of 20-50% (average sensitivities of 64.0%, 59.0%, and 68.6%, respectively). The interday coefficient of variation for SFS was 7.6%. CONCLUSIONS Skin fluorescence spectroscopy has similar screening performance to FPG and A1C and is a viable approach for detection of AGT.

Prediabetic obese adolescents have a more atherogenic lipoprotein profile compared with normoglycemic obese peers. J Pediatr 2012; 161:881-6. [PMID: 22622051 PMCID: PMC3430826 DOI: 10.1016/j.jpeds.2012.04.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/21/2011] [Revised: 02/16/2012] [Accepted: 04/16/2012] [Indexed: 12/28/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare lipoprotein profiles of prediabetic to normoglycemic obese adolescents. STUDY DESIGN Cross-sectional study of 95 obese, pubertal adolescents (12-17 years), who underwent oral glucose tolerance test, lipid panel, and lipoprotein subclass particle analysis (nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy). Univariate and linear regression analyses compared prediabetic and normoglycemic groups. RESULTS Of 95 obese adolescents enrolled in the study, 22.1% (n = 21) had prediabetes. They were similar to normoglycemic adolescents (n = 74) in age, race, body mass index, standard lipids, total low-density lipoprotein particles (LDL-P), and total high-density lipoprotein particles (HDL-P). However, prediabetics had higher concentrations of small LDL-P (714.0 ± 288.0 vs 537.7 ± 266.5 nmol/L, P = .01) and smaller LDL-P size (20.73 ± 0.41 vs 21.18 ± 0.65 nm, P = .003), than normoglycemic youth. Prediabetics had higher small HDL-P (18.5 ± 3.8 vs 16.6 ± 3.9 umol/L, P = .046), lower large HDL-P (4.49 ± 2.0 vs 6.32 ± 2.6 umol/L, P = .004), and smaller HDL-P size (8.73 ± 0.31 vs 9.01 ± 0.39 nm, P = .003). After adjusting for demographics, Tanner stage, and body mass index using multiple linear regression, all differences remained significant except for small HDL-P. After additional adjustment for Homeostasis Model Assessment-Insulin Resistance Index, only LDL-P size difference remained significant. CONCLUSION Obese prediabetic adolescents have a significantly more atherogenic lipoprotein profile compared with obese normoglycemic peers. Prediabetic adolescents may benefit from more aggressive interventions to decrease future cardiovascular risk.

The impact of gestational weight gain and diet on abnormal glucose tolerance during pregnancy in Hispanic women. Matern Child Health J 2009; 13:520-30. [PMID: 18597166 PMCID: PMC2683196 DOI: 10.1007/s10995-008-0381-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 47] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2008] [Accepted: 06/14/2008] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the association of gestational weight gain and dietary factors with abnormal glucose tolerance (AGT). METHODS We conducted a prospective cohort study among 813 Hispanic prenatal care patients in Massachusetts. Gestational weight gain and oral glucose tolerance test results were abstracted from medical records. Dietary intake was assessed using a semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire. Target weight gain was based on BMI-specific weekly weight gain rates established by the Institute of Medicine (IOM). RESULTS We observed a statistically significant interaction between prepregnancy BMI and weight gain in relation to AGT (P < 0.01). Class II/III (BMI > or = 35 kg/m2) obese women who had a high rate of weight gain (>0.30 kg/week) or who exceeded target weight were 3-4 times as likely to develop AGT compared to women who gained within IOM ranges (OR = 4.2, 95% CI 1.1-16.0, OR = 3.2 95% CI 1.0-10.5, respectively). Decreasing levels of saturated fatty acids and energy-dense snack foods and increasing levels of fiber and polyunsaturated:saturated fat ratio were significantly associated with decreased risk of AGT, independent of gestational weight gain [corrected]. CONCLUSIONS Weight gain among class II/III obese women and certain dietary components may represent modifiable risk factors for AGT.
