Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disorder often seen in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). Individuals with diabetes are at a greater risk of developing cardiovascular complications and this may be related, in part, to lipid abnormalities observed in these individuals. The objective of this systematic review is to compile the current scientific evidence of the effects of periodontal treatment on lipid profiles in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Through a systematic search using MEDLINE, EMBASE, PubMed, and Web of Science, 313 articles were identified. Of these, seven clinical trials which met all inclusion criteria were chosen for analysis. Between baseline and 3-month follow-up, there was a statistically significant reduction in the levels of total cholesterol (mean differences (MD) −0.47 mmol/L (95% confidence interval (CI), −0.75, −0.18, p = 0.001)), triglycerides (MD −0.20 mmol/L (95% CI −0.24, −0.16, p < 0.00001)) favouring the intervention arm, and a statistically significant reduction in levels of high density lipoprotein (HDL) (MD 0.06 mmol/L (95% CI 0.03, 0.08, p < 0.00001)) favouring the control arm. No significant differences were observed between baseline and 6-month follow-up levels for any lipid analysed. The heterogeneity between studies was high. This review foreshadows a potential benefit of periodontal therapy for lipid profiles in patients suffering from type 2 DM, however, well designed clinical trials using lipid profiles as primary outcome measures are warranted.

Background: Several studies have investigated the effect of Urtica dioica (UD) consumption on metabolic profiles in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM); however, the findings are inconsistent. This systematic review and meta-analysis of clinical trials was performed to summarize the evidence of the effects of UD consumption on metabolic profiles in patients with T2DM. Methods: Eligible studies were retrieved from searches of PubMed, Embase, Scopus, Web of Science, Cochrane Library and Google Scholar databases until December 2019. Cochran (Q) and I-square statistics were used to examine heterogeneity across included clinical trials. Data were pooled by using fixed-effect or random-effects model and expressed as weighted mean difference (WMD) and 95% confidence interval (CI). Results: Among 1485 citations, thirteen clinical trials were found to be eligible for the current meta-analysis. UD consumption significantly decreased levels of fasting blood glucose (FBG) (WMD= -17.17 mg/dl, 95% CI: -26.60, -7.73, I2= 93.2%), hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) (WMD= -0.93, 95% CI: -1.66, -0.17, I2= 75.0%), C-reactive protein (CRP) (WMD= -1.09 mg/dl, 95% CI: -1.64, -0.53, I2= 0.0%), triglycerides (WMD = -26.94 mg/dl, 95 % CI = [-52.07, -1.82], P = 0.03, I2 = 90.0%), systolic blood pressure (SBP) (WMD= -5.03 mmHg, 95% CI = -8.15, -1.91, I2= 0.0%) in comparison to the control groups. UD consumption did not significantly change serum levels of insulin (WMD= 1.07 μU/ml, 95% CI: -1.59, 3.73, I2= 63.5%), total-cholesterol (WMD= -6.39 mg/dl, 95% CI: -13.84, 1.05, I2= 0.0%), LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) (WMD= -1.30 mg/dl, 95% CI: -9.95, 7.35, I2= 66.1%), HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C) (WMD= 6.95 mg/dl, 95% CI: -0.14, 14.03, I2= 95.4%), body max index (BMI) (WMD= -0.16 kg/m2, 95% CI: -1.77, 1.44, I2= 0.0%), and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) (WMD= -1.35 mmHg, 95% CI: -2.86, 0.17, I2= 0.0%) among patients with T2DM. Conclusion: UD consumption may result in an improvement in levels of FBS, HbA1c, CRP, triglycerides and SBP, but did not affect on levels of insulin, total-, LDL-, and HDL-cholesterol, BMI, and DBP in patients with T2DM.

Abstract Objectives A meta-analysis systematic review that investigates the impact of the herbal tea (non-camellia sinensis) on glucose homeostasis and serum lipids in individuals with type 2 diabetes was conducted in response to a growing interest in herbal remedies as a potential alternative source of management of type 2 diabetes. Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disorder that has contributed to the US burden of morbidity, disability and mortality with a fast-increasing global trend through the last decades. Methods PubMed, FSTA, Web of Science, CINAHEL and MEDLINE databases were searched using keywords diabetes* OR “diabetes mellitus” OR “type 2” OR “blood glucose” OR insulin* OR antidiabet* OR “glucose level”) AND (“Serum lipids” OR triglyceride* OR cholesterol* OR “LDL” OR “HDL” OR dyslipidemia) AND (“non-camellia sinensis” OR tea) up to January 2019. Review articles, animal studies, non-trial, non-herbal tea (green, black and white tea), and articles which did not evaluate glucose homeostasis and lipid profiles were included in the exclusion criteria. Articles that met the inclusion criteria included herbal tea administration effects on glucose homeostasis and serum lipids in clinical trials. All statistical calculations were performed using SAS software version 9.2 (SAS, Cary NC, USA). Results From 265 studies eight trials were included in the meta-analysis of glycemic and serum lipid profile end points. According to meta-analysis outputs, the estimated value for pooled fasting blood glucose (FBG) was −6.17 mg/dl, 95% CI: −19.96 to 7.6054, p value = 0.37; HbA1c (2.70, 95% CI: −1.1 to 6.5, p = 0.1), total-cholesterol (TC) (−10.896 mg/dl, 95% CI: −65.68 to 43.88, p = 0.69), LDL-cholesterol (LDL) (−8.57 mg/dl, 95% CI: −22.42 to 5.27, p = 0.22). The overall effects for triglyceride (TG) (−24.18 mg/dl, 95% CI: −42.69 to −5.68, p = 0.01) was significantly reduced by tea administration and HDL-cholesterol (HDL) (2.823 mg/dl, 95% CI: 9.7866 to 15.433 p = 0.05) significantly increased in the meta-analysis study. Conclusions The systematic review and meta-analysis supports a significant effect of herbal tea on triglyceride levels and HDL levels in individuals with type 2 diabetes. Additional clinical trials with a larger number of participants are needed as the number of studies is limited. Funding Sources N/A.
