Diabetes Tipo 2

El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar la relación entre las convicciones sobre las causas de enfermedad, control glucémico y estado afectivo de mujeres y hombres con sobrepeso y obesos que sufren de diabetes tipo 2. La muestra clínica incluyó 88 pacientes (46 hombres), a la edad de entre 31 y 79 años. Los pacientes fueron examinados en la Clínica de consulta externa de endocrinología, diabetes y enfermedades metabólicas del Centro hospitalario clínico de Rijeka. Mediciones psicológicas incluían el Cuestionario Revisado de Percepción de Enfermedad y la Escala de Ansiedad y Depresión Hospitalarias. También se obtuvieron el peso corporal, altura y control glucémico de los pacientes. Los resultados demuestran que el índice de masa corporal (IMC) no fue significativamente correlacionado con el nivel de HbA1c, ni con las variables psicológicas mesuradas (atribuciones psicológicas de la enfermedad, ansiedad y síntomas de depresión). Convicción más fuerte que la enfermedad fue causada por los factores psicológicos fue correlacionada con más síntomas de ansiedad y depresión en los pacientes. Hubo un efecto principal significativo del género de paciente en las atribuciones psicológicas y síntomas de ansiedad. Las mujeres mostraron convicciones más fuertes que los factores psicológicos podrían causar su enfermedad y mostraron también niveles más altos de síntomas de ansiedad que los hombres. No hubo un efecto principal más significativo del control glucémico en las variables psicológicas. Los resultados sugieren que trabajando con los pacientes con la DMT2 es importante prestar atención a los aspectos psicológicos de enfermedad, teniendo en cuenta el género de paciente. Examinar las convicciones sobre las causas de diabetes y el estado emocional podría posibilitarnos reconocer posibles obstáculos en proporcionar cuidados.

Phenolic Extract

Abstract Background Ethnobotany knowledge in a community has shaped local wisdom in utilizing plants to treat diseases, such as the use of Malaka (Phyllanthus emblica) flesh to treat type 2 diabetes. This study presented evidence that the phenolic extract of the Malaka flesh could reduce blood sugar levels in the diabetic induced rats. Methods The phenolic extract of the P. emblica was administrated to the glucose-induced rats of the Wistar strain Rattus norvegicus for 14 days of treatment where the Metformin was used as a positive control. The data generated were analyzed by the two-way ANOVA Software related to the blood glucose level and by SAS Software related to the histopathological studies at a significant 95% confidence. Results The phenolic extract with concentrations of 100 and 200 mg/kg body weight could reduce blood glucose levels in diabetic rats. The post hoc Dunnet test showed that the administration of the extract to the rats with a concentration of 100 mg/kg body weight demonstrated a very significant decrease in blood glucose levels and repaired damaged cells better than administering the extract at a concentration of 200 mg/kg weight body. Conclusion The evidence indicated that the phenolic extract of the Malaka flesh can be utilized as anti type 2 Diabetes mellitus without damaging other organs.

Efficacy And Safety

Abstract Introduction: Ertugliflozin (ERTU), a sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor, is approved as an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Aim: As a pre-specified sub-study of the Phase 3 VERTIS CV trial (NCT01986881), the efficacy and safety of ERTU were assessed in patients with T2DM and established atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) inadequately controlled with metformin and sulfonylurea (SU). Methods: Patients with T2DM, established ASCVD, and HbA1c 7.0–10.5% on stable metformin (≥1500 mg/day) and SU doses as defined per protocol were randomized to once-daily ERTU (5 mg or 15 mg) or placebo. The primary sub-study objectives were to assess the effect of ERTU on HbA1c compared with placebo and to evaluate safety and tolerability during 18-week follow-up. Key secondary endpoints included proportion of patients achieving HbA1c <7%, fasting plasma glucose (FPG), body weight, and systolic blood pressure. Changes from baseline at Week 18 for continuous efficacy endpoints were assessed using a constrained longitudinal data analysis model. Results: Of the 8246 patients enrolled in the VERTIS CV trial, 330 patients were eligible for this sub-study (ERTU 5 mg, n=100; ERTU 15 mg, n=113; placebo, n=117). Patients had a mean (SD) age of 63.2 (8.4) years, T2DM duration 11.4 (7.4) years, estimated glomerular filtration rate 83.5 (17.8) mL/min/1.73 m2, and HbA1c 8.3% (1.0) (67.4 [10.6] mmol/mol). At Week 18, ERTU 5 mg and 15 mg were each associated with a significantly greater least squares mean (95% CI) HbA1c reduction from baseline versus placebo; the placebo-adjusted differences for ERTU 5 mg and 15 mg were –0.7% (–0.9, –0.4) and –0.8% (–1.0, –0.5), respectively (P<0.001). A higher proportion of patients in each ERTU group achieved HbA1c <7% relative to placebo (P<0.001). ERTU significantly reduced FPG and body weight (P<0.001, for each dose versus placebo), but not systolic blood pressure. Adverse events were reported in 48.0%, 54.9%, and 47.0% of patients in the ERTU 5 mg, 15 mg, and placebo groups, respectively. Genital mycotic infections were experienced by significantly higher proportions of male patients who received ERTU 5 mg and 15 mg (4.2% and 4.8%, respectively) versus placebo (0.0%; P≤0.05) and by a numerically, but not significantly, higher proportion of female patients who received ERTU 15 mg (10.3%) compared with placebo (3.8%) (P=0.36). The incidences of symptomatic hypoglycemia were 11.0% (5 mg), 12.4% (15 mg), and 7.7% (placebo), and of severe hypoglycemia 2.0% (5 mg), 1.8% (15 mg), and 0.9% (placebo). Conclusion: Among patients with T2DM and ASCVD, ERTU (5 mg and 15 mg) added to metformin and SU for 18 weeks improved glycemic control (HbA1c and FPG) and reduced body weight, and was generally well tolerated with a safety profile consistent with the SGLT2 inhibitor class.

This paper reports the results of the treatment of 71 patients presenting with type 2 diabetes mellitus using liraglutide, a long-acting analog of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) marketed under the brand name Victoza. Practically all the patients experienced either improvement or normalization of the parameters of carbohydrate metabolism in conjunction with a reduction of their body weight and arterial pressure. There were no severe hypoglycemic episodes and other adverse reactions to the therapy. It is recommended that Victoza should be more widely used for the treatment of the patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Lipid Metabolism Disorders

A sex difference of carbohydrate and lipid metabolism disorders in rats with type 2 diabetes has been studied. It was established that type 2 diabetes leads to a more pronounced deterioration in carbohydrate toleranceand insulin sensitivity in males compared to female rats, but the sex doesn’t affect basal glycemia and fructosamine levels. It was found that the increase of body weight and visceral fat in rats with type 2 diabetes is moremanifested in females than in males. It has been determined that hypertriglyceridemia is higher in diabeticmales compared to diabetic females, and the level of common lipids in the liver, both intact females and femaleswith type 2 diabetes, is lower than that of the males. The obtained results indicate a more expressive impairment of glucose and lipid metabolism in males compared to females with type 2 diabetes

Control Glucémico

En Colombia la Diabetes Mellitus es un problema de salud pública por lo que deben generarse e implementarse estrategias de prevención, diagnóstico, tratamiento y seguimiento, aplicables en todos los niveles de atención con miras a establecer el control de la diabetes en forma temprana y sostenida. Se elaboró una guía de práctica clínica siguiendo los lineamientos de la guía metodológica del Ministerio de Salud y Protección Social para recolectar de forma sistemática la evidencia científica y formular las recomendaciones utilizando la metodología GRADE. El presente documento muestra, de forma resumida, el resultado de ese proceso, incluyendo las recomendaciones y las consideraciones tenidas en cuenta para llegar a ellas. En términos generales, se propone un proceso de tamización mediante el cuestionario FINDRISC adaptado a población Colombiana que permite llegar a un diagnóstico temprano de la enfermedad y un algoritmo para el manejo inicial que es generalizable a la gran mayoría de los pacientes con DMT2 y que es sencillo de aplicar en atención primaria. También se hacen unas recomendaciones para escalar el tratamiento farmacológico de los pacientes que no alcanzan la meta o la pierden con el manejo inicial, teniendo en cuenta principalmente la evolución del peso y la individualización de la meta de control glucémico en poblaciones especiales. Finalmente se proponen algunas recomendaciones para la detección oportuna de las complicaciones micro y macrovasculares de la diabetes.
