Abstract It is estimated that subclinical DM (diabetes mellitus) has the onset about 10 years before the appearance of actual clinical manifestations, leading to uncontrolled chronic complications. Many trials have pursued the onset and evolution of the DM chronic complications in order to obtain a full picture that allows the development of prevention strategies, treatments and DM costs reduction.

The long-term complications of diabetes mellitus include those attributable to hyperglycemia-mediated small vessel (microvascular)and neuropathic complications and syndromes resulting from multifactorial large vessel disease (macrovascular complications). Diabetic patients with evidence of chronic complications are best managed in consultation with appropriate specialists. The microvascular and neuropathic complications, which are specifically related to hyperglycemia, include retinopathy, nephropathy, and diabetic neuropathy. This review contains 8 figures, 9 tables, and 83 references. Key Words: Hyperglycemia, hypoglycemia, macrovascular, microvascular, neuropathic

Abnormal Glucose Metabolism

A prediabetic state is a major risk factor for the development of diabetes, and, because of an identical pathophysiological background of both conditions, their prevalence increases parallelly and equally fast. Long-term hyperglycemia is the main cause inducing chronic complications of diabetes, yet the range of glucose levels at which they start has not been yet unequivocally determined. The current data show that chronic microvascular complications of diabetes can be observed in patients with abnormal glucose metabolism in whom glycaemia is higher than optimal but below diagnostic criteria for diabetes. Prediabetes is a heterogenous nosological unit in which particular types are differently characterized and show different correlations with particular kinds of complications. Analysis of the latest research results shows the need to continue studies in a larger population and can imply the need to verify the currently employed criteria of diagnosing diabetes and chronic complications of diabetes in people with prediabetes.

Diabetic Osteopenia

Diabetic osteopenia has been known as one of the chronic complications of diabetes mellitus, and a decrease in bone turnover has been thought to be one of the pathophysiological characteristics of this complication. In order to investigate the effect of long-term insulin therapy on low bone turnover in diabetes, pancreas transplantation was performed on streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. Plasma levels of bone γ-carboxyglutamic acid-containing protein(osteocalcin) in untreated diabetic rats were 0.9±0.1 (mean±sem) nmol/l, significantly lower than the value of 4.2±0.6 nmol/l in control rats (p<0.01). Pancreas transplantation reversed this decrease to 6.3±1.1 nmol/l, which was not significantly different from the value in control rats. The circulating levels of calcitriol were significantly decreased in the untreated diabetic group (p<0.01), and the decrease was fully reversed by pancreas transplantation. In addition, the decreases in bone length, strength and weight were also improved by the transplantation. This evidence clearly shows that the improvement of metabolic derangements in diabetes by insulin is essential for the prevention of deterioration in diabetic osteopenia. It is possible, therefore, that insulin exerts an indirect beneficial influence through the metabolic amelioration on the decreases in bone turnover and circulating osteocalcin in diabetes mellitus, or has a direct stimulatory effect on the osteoblasts via the insulin receptor since its presence has been shown recently in osteoblastic cells.

With this Editorial, we are hereby presenting to the reader the Special Issue on “Clinical Research on Diabetic Complications”. Chronic complications of diabetes mellitus have a major impact on the life of subjects with the disease, resulting in decreased quality of life and increased morbidity and mortality. This Special Issue includes contributions addressing different clinical aspects of the natural history, prevention and prediction, and characterization and management of diabetes-related complications.
