AbstractObjectiveTo systematically investigate the correlation between the G>A polymorphism of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator 1α (PPARGC1A or PGC-1alpha) gene rs8192678 locus and the susceptibility to type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).MethodsThe inclusion and exclusion criteria and retrieval strategies of original literatures were formulated. Then, subjects and free words “PPARGC1A”,”gene polymorphism”, and “T2DM” were retrieved from the PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases. Case-control studies on the G>A polymorphism of the PPARGC1A gene rs8192678 locus and susceptibility to T2DM were included for the meta-analysis.ResultsThe number of cases in the T2DM group and control group was 5,607 and 7,596, respectively. The meta-analysis revealed that the PPARGC1A gene rs8192678 locus G>A polymorphism is associated with susceptibility to T2DM. There are differences in each group of genetic models, of which three groups of genetic models are highly significant. In the allele model, OR=1.249, 95% CI: 1.099-1.419, and P=0.001. In the dominant inheritance model, OR=1.364, 95% CI: 1.152-1.614, and P=0.000. In the additive inheritance model, OR=0.828, 95% CI: 0.726-0.945, and P=0.005. And one group is significant, in the recessive inheritance model, OR=1.187, 95% CI: 1.021-1.381, and P=0.026.ConclusionIn Western Asian, South Asian, European and African populations, the A allele of the PPARGC1A gene rs8192678 locus may be one of the risk factors for T2DM.

The effect of exercise intervention on balance capacity among type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients has not been evaluated. The objective of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to investigate the effect of exercise intervention on balance capacity among T2DM patients compared to the control group (usual care, waitlist, no-treatment, education). We conducted a comprehensive literature search through PubMed, EMBASE, Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro), Cochrane library, Web of Science (WOS) from inception to August 2020. The literature language was limited to English. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) or quasi-experimental (Q-E) trials that examined the effect of exercise intervention on balance capacity among T2DM patients were included. We used the standard methods of meta-analysis to evaluate the outcomes of exercise intervention for balance capacity of T2DM patients. A total of 14 trials (11 RCTs and 3 Q-E trials) involving 883 participants were eligible. The meta-analysis of some studies demonstrated that exercise intervention could significantly improve Berg Balance Scale (BBS) (MD = 2.56; 95%CI [0.35, 4.77]; P = .02), SLST (Single Leg Stance Test) under the eyes-open (EO) condition (MD = 3.63; 95%CI [1.79, 5.47]; P = .0001) and eyes-close (EC) condition (MD = 0.41; 95%CI [0.10, 0.72]; P = .01) compared to control group. There was no significant difference in Time Up and Go Test (TUGT) (MD = −0.75; 95%CI [−1.69, 0.19]; P = .12) and fall efficacy (SMD = −0.44; 95%CI [−0.86, −0.01]; P = .05). Narrative review of some studies indicated that exercise intervention could improve postural stability measured by Sensory Organization Test (SOT) and Center of Pressure (COP) variables, etc. This systematic review and meta-analysis summarized that exercise intervention could improve balance capacity in T2DM patients. However, further studies with high quality are required to evaluate its effect.

There have been increasing evidences that thiazolidinediones, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) agonists, may have some antiatherogenic actions. We have previously reported that troglitazone has a potent inhibitory effect on common carotid arterial intima-media thickness (IMT) in subjects with type 2 diabetes. However, some studies suggested a possibility that PPARγ activators may have protoatherogenic actions, raising concern about their detrimental effects in diabetic subjects. In the present study, we investigated the effect of treatment with pioglitazone, another PPARγ agonist, on IMT in a total of 106 Japanese subjects with type 2 diabetes. Pioglitazone (30 mg daily) was administered for 6 months in 53 patients. Compared to control group (n = 53), the group given pioglitazone showed a significant decrease in IMT as early as 3 months after the administration. The decrease in IMT was also found after 6 months (IMT change: −0.084[SE 0.023] mm vs. control 0.022[SE 0.006] mm, P < 0.001), although the difference between those after 3 and 6 months did not reach any statistical significance. These findings indicate that thiazolidinediones cause an inhibition of early atherosclerotic process PPARγ activation.

AbstractAsians have relatively low insulin secretion capacity and readily develop type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) when insulin resistant. For that reason, insufficient insulin secretion is critical factor for Asians at the early stage of T2DM. ATP-binding cassette transporter1 (ABCA1) is a membrane protein responsible for cholesterol efflux and its function is also important for secreting insulin in pancreatic β-cells. Given the importance of its role, different polymorphisms of ABCA1 gene might contribute differently to the development of T2DM. Here, we analyzed the association between a variant form of ABCA1 gene called ABCA1 rs2230806 and the prevalence of T2DM in a large sample size by pooling all of the case-control studies published. Relevant case-control studies were identified by searching PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Korean scientific database, Chinese medical databases, and the Indian medical database. The association was evaluated using five genetic models such as the allelic (AG), recessive (RG), dominant (DG), homozygous (HMG), and heterozygous (HTG) genetic models. Heterogeneity of each genetic model was determined by the I2 test. A total of eight studies (7 published studies and one data set from the Korean Genetic Epidemiology Study) were eligible, satisfying Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium and included 2755 T2DM patients (case) and 16 635 nondiabetic subjects (control). All subjects in the studies were Asians. Each genetic model exhibited heterogeneity. In all genetic models, ABCA1 rs2230806 had a significant association with prevalence of T2DM: AG (OR=0.78, 95% CI: 0.61–0.98), RG (OR=0.72, 95% CI: 0.51–1.03), DG (OR=0.73, 95% CI: 0.55–0.97), HMG (OR=0.62, 95% CI: 0.41–0.96), and HTG (OR=0.78, 95% CI: 0.61–0.99). There was no single study that changed the overall effects in allelic genetic model with random effects. No publication bias existed in any models except the RG model. In conclusion, middle-aged and elderly adults with the minor allele of ABCA1 rs2230806 will have a lower risk of T2DM. This is the first meta-analysis to evaluate the association in Asians.

Diabetes mellitus is an important issue for public health, and it is growing in the world. In recent years, there has been a growing research interest on efficacy evidence of the curcumin use in the regulation of glycemia and lipidaemia. The molecular structure of curcumins allows to intercept reactive oxygen species (ROI) that are particularly harmful in chronic inflammation and tumorigenesis models. The aim of our study performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the effect of curcumin on glycemic and lipid profile in subjects with uncomplicated type 2 diabetes. The papers included in the meta-analysis were sought in the MEDLINE, EMBASE, Scopus, Clinicaltrials.gov, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library databases as of October 2020. The sizes were pooled across studies in order to obtain an overall effect size. A random effects model was used to account for different sources of variation among studies. Cohen’s d, with 95% confidence interval (CI) was used as a measure of the effect size. Heterogeneity was assessed while using Q statistics. The ANOVA-Q test was used to value the differences among groups. Publication bias was analyzed and represented by a funnel plot. Curcumin treatment does not show a statistically significant reduction between treated and untreated patients. On the other hand, glycosylated hemoglobin, homeostasis model assessment (HOMA), and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) showed a statistically significant reduction in subjects that were treated with curcumin, respectively (p = 0.008, p < 0.001, p = 0.021). When considering HBA1c, the meta-regressions only showed statistical significance for gender (p = 0.034). Our meta-analysis seems to confirm the benefits on glucose metabolism, with results that appear to be more solid than those of lipid metabolism. However, further studies are needed in order to test the efficacy and safety of curcumin in uncomplicated type 2 diabetes.
