BACKGROUND: Glikogemoglobin (HbA1c) is a key clinical marker for evaluating the effectiveness of glucose-lowering therapy for patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) and the quality of diabetic care. AIMS: to conduct dynamic monitoring of the quality of glycemic control in DM patients based on a comprehensive examination in mobile medical center (Diamodul) during repeated visits to the regions in 2019 compared with visits of Based Federal program Diabetes Mellitus (20052010) and data of the National diabetes register (NDR). MATERIALS AND METHODS: The object of the study: patients with T1DM and T2DM examined in Diamodul in 2019 in Voronezh region (Vr), Krasnodar region (Kr) (n = 600), there were dynamic group of re-examined (Vr n = 224; Kr n = 113), random group of new patients (Vr n = 72; Kr n = 191); group of adult patients from NDR with indicated HbA1c in 2019 (n = 2410067). RESULTS: According to Diamodul, the HbA1c levels are significantly worse than they were reported to NDR: the proportion of patients achieved HbA1c 7% for T1DM is 13.3% and 11.7%; T2DM 25.1% and 28.6%, in Kr and Vr, respectively; in NDR: T1DM 37.4%, T2DM 52.2%. The average HbA1c values in the Diamodul are higher than in NDR by 0.95% for T1DM, 1.41% for T2DM patients. The proportion of patients with HbA1c9% decrease in dynamic of examinations through years in T1: in Vr from 53.1% in 2005 and 55.8% in 2010 to 42.9% in 2019, in Kr from 53.2% in 2006 to 43.8% in 2019; also there were decreases in the average HbA1c values in Vr from 9.3% in 2005 and 9.4% in 2010 to 8.8% in 2019; in Kr from 9.1% in 2006 to 8.7% in 2019. In T2DM patients with the best parameters of DM control in a whole, the positive trends were less pronounced and are assessed as non-deterioration: the proportion of HbA1c9 % in Vr: 34.7%34.7%36.4%, in Kr 40.1%28.4%; average values of HbA1c: 8.2%8.4%8.5% and 8.6%8.4%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The data of the research clearly indicates the need for 100% inclusion of HbA1c in the examination standards in all DM patients at the primary level at least 1 time per year, in order to monitor the real clinical situation, the effectiveness of glucose-lowering therapy and its timely intensification to prevent development of complications.

ObjectivesTo evaluate the extent to which patients with type 2 diabetes discontinue metformin therapy when initiating second-line treatment and factors associated with metformin discontinuation, using baseline data from the DISCOVER study programme.DesignDISCOVER is a 3-year, prospective, observational study programme including data from 38 countries across 6 continents from 2014 to 2019.SettingPrimary and secondary healthcare centres, hospitals and specialist diabetes centres in both urban and rural locations.ParticipantsA total of 15 992 patients with type 2 diabetes initiating second-line glucose-lowering therapy.Primary and secondary outcome measuresThe proportion of patients who discontinued metformin as a second-line therapy and the factors associated with this treatment change.ResultsOf the 14 668 patients (from 37 countries) with valid treatment data, 11 837 (80.7%) received metformin as first-line glucose-lowering therapy; 8488 (71.7%) received metformin monotherapy and 3349 (28.3%) received metformin as part of a combination therapy. Overall, treatment with metformin was discontinued in 15.1% (1782) of patients who received first-line metformin (14.1% (1194) and 17.6% (588) in those who received metformin as monotherapy and as part of a combination, respectively); this proportion varied across regions from 6.9% (54) in Africa to 20.6% (628) in South-East Asia. On metformin discontinuation, 73.6% (1311) of patients received a non-insulin monotherapy at second line. Factors associated with an increased odds of metformin discontinuation were older age (≥75 years) and having a history of chronic kidney disease. The probability of metformin monotherapy discontinuation was lower in patients from Africa than in those from Europe.ConclusionsA substantial number of patients discontinued taking metformin when beginning second-line therapy. Most of these patients subsequently received a non-insulin monotherapy at second line, in contradiction to international guidelines and potentially leaving them at an increased risk of hyperglycaemia and associated adverse outcomes.Trial registration numbersNCT02322762 and NCT02226822.

Abstract Background Glucose-lowering therapy (GLT) should be individualized in older patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) according to their health status and their life expectancy. This study aimed at assessing the inappropriateness of GLT prescribing and the one-year mortality rate in geriatric patients with T2D. Methods Retrospective cohort study of consecutive inpatients with T2D admitted to a geriatric ward of a Belgian university hospital. Inclusion criteria were age ≥ 75 years, T2D with GLT before admission, and HbA1c measurement during the hospital stay. Comorbidities and geriatric syndromes were collected. GLT agents were classified into hypoglycaemic and non-hypoglycaemic ones, and their dosages were expressed in daily defined dose (DDD). Health status (intermediate or poor) and GLT appropriateness (appropriate, overtreatment, undertreatment) were assessed according to the 2019 Endocrine Society guideline on diabetes treatment in older adults, in which GLT overtreatment requires the presence of hypoglycaemic therapy. One-year mortality was determined using the National Registry of vital status, and its associated factors were analysed using multivariable Cox’ regression. Results The 318 geriatric patients with T2D (median age 84 years; 46% female) were in intermediate (33%) or poor health (67%). These two groups reached similar low HbA1c values (median 6.9%) with similar GLT regimens. GLT overtreatment was frequent (57%) irrespectively of the geriatric features. One-year mortality rate was high (38.5%) and associated in multivariate analysis with poor health status (HR: 1.59, p = 0.033), malnutrition (HR: 1.67, p = 0.006) and GLT overtreatment (HR: 1.73, p = 0.023). Patients with GLT overtreatment had a higher mortality rate (44.5%). Conclusions GLT overtreatment was present in more than half of these geriatric patients. Many of them were in poor health status and died within one-year. Special attention should be paid to individualisation of the HbA1c goals in the geriatric patients with diabetes, and to GLT de-intensification in those being over-treated.

Hypoglycemic Therapy

The aim of thisstudy was to investigatethe efficiency ofmetabolic therapyincorrectionof cognitive impairmentin patientswith type 2 diabetes. We undertook the analysis of results of the treatment of cognitive dysfunction in 80 patients with a diagnosis of type 2 diabetes. All patients received basic hypoglycemic therapy. 32 patients (study group) received in addition to the basal glucose lowering therapy daily intravenous infusion of 10 mlcytoflavindiluted in 200 ml of a 0.9% sodium chloride solution for 10 days, followed by 2 tablets b.i.d. for 25 days.The group of comparison consisted of 29 patients given in addition to the basal glucose-lowering therapy daily intravenous infusion of 24 ml (600 mg) thioctacid diluted in 200 mL of a 0.9% sodium chloride solution for 10 days. Thereafter, they received 1 tablet ofthioctacid BV once dailyfor 30 days. The control group consisted of 19 patients who received basic hypoglycemic therapy without additional metabolic therapy.Inclusion of cytoflavin in the combined treatment ofpatients with type 2 diabetes ensured a more effective correction of cognitive impairment. There was a statistically significant improvement in optical-spatial activities (p = 0.001), attention (p = 0.001), abstract thinking (p = 0.046), and memory (p<0.001) compared to those in other groups, according to the MOS test. Positive dynamics was expressed as the improvement of the optical-spatial activities by 9,8 ± 10,3%, attention by 13,5 ± 11,8%, abstract thinking by 7,0 ± 8,9%, and memory by 23.0 ± 14 6%. The study of variations of the serum level of brain neurotrophic factor (BDNF) over time during the treatment with metabolic preparations revealedits statistically significant increase (p = 0.002) in the patients treated with cytoflavincompared with comparison (p = 0.139) and control (p = 0.078) groups. These results suggest the influence of cytoflavinon the processes of neuroplasticity under conditions of hyperglycemia, improvement of cerebral microcirculation and cerebroprotective action of this medication.
