Association between onychomycosis and ulcerative complications in patients with diabetes: a longitudinal cohort study in Dutch general practice
Conclusions
Onychomycosis significantly increased the risk of ulcer development in patients with DM in primary care, independently of other risk factors. In addition, onychomycosis increased the risk of surgeries and infectious complications. These results underscore the importance of giving sufficient attention to onychomycosis in primary care and corresponding guidelines. Early identification of onychomycosis during screening and routine care provides a good opportunity for timely recognition of increased ulcer risk. (Source: BMJ Open)

Long-Term effects of physical activity on weight loss, metabolic parameter and blood pressure in subjects undergoing bariatric surgery: a 5-year follow-up study.
bariatric surgery stands as an effective intervention for weight loss and improved metabolic control in obesity, although over time there is a proportion of weight regain and type-2-diabetes (T2D) relapse. Aims: to explore the role of physical activity (PA) after surgery and its impact on metabolic parameters during a 5-year follow-up. (Source: American Journal of Surgery)

Causal relationships of Helicobacter pylori and related gastrointestinal diseases on Type 2 diabetes: Univariable and Multivariable Mendelian randomization
ConclusionOur study found that H. pylori IgG antibody, H. pylori GroEL antibody, gastroduodenal ulcer and chronic gastritis are all related to t T2DM, and blood glucose level and obesity mediate the development of H. pylori GroEL antibody and gastroduodenal ulcer on T2DM, respectively. These findings may inform new prevention and intervention strategies for T2DM. (Source: PLoS One)

The Triglyceride-Glucose Index is Superior to Homeostasis Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance in predicting Metabolic Syndrome in an Adult Population in the United States
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) defined by a set of cardio-metabolic features is associated with an increased risk for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM)[1-3]. Its individual components include an elevated waist circumference [WC], increased triglycerides [TG], low levels of high density lipoprotein cholesterol [HDL-C], elevated fasting glucose and high blood pressure [1 –3]. It is a major global problem with no optimum treatment. (Source: Journal of Clinical Lipidology)

Association of KLOTHO gene variants with metabolic and renal function parameters in Mexican patients living with type 2 diabetes
ConclusionIn Mexican patients living with type 2 diabetes,KL variant rs9536314 was found associated with low odds of hypo-HDL cholesterol, albuminuria and presence of CKD. Meanwhile the consensus of soluble KLOTHO measurement is reached, genetic variants in theKL gene could be considered as genetic markers for CKD susceptibility in patients at high-risk of vascular complications.

Obesity, indicated by Body Mass Index (BMI), is a risk factor for type 2 diabetes. However, its association with glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), a crucial indicator of blood-sugar control, may vary across different populations and disease statuses. Data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2017–2018 were analyzed. Partic...

Choroidal vascularity index as a predictor for the development of retinopathy in diabetic patients
ConclusionsCVI tends to be lower in diabetic patients with or without DR compared to healthy controls. Moreover, patients with DR have a lower CVI than those without DR. CVI can be considered an early and sensitive biomarker for the onset of DR. (Source: Journal of Endocrinological Investigation)

Does gestational diabetes mellitus increase the risk of cardiovascular disease? A Mendelian randomization study
ConclusionWomen with a prior history of GDM face an elevated risk of future CAD. This increased risk of CAD cannot be solely attributed to the subsequent onset of diabetes. Regular CAD risk assessment and primary prevention strategies are of paramount importance for women with a history of GDM. (Source: Journal of Endocrinological Investigation)
