The aim: To assess of pro-inflammatory IL-8 and anti-inflammatory IL-10 serum concentration in patients with T2DM with intraabdominal postoperative abscesses in perioperative period. Materials and methods: The 48 participants, aged 40 – 75 years, among them 24 males and 24 females. All patients were divided into groups: group 1 – 12 patients with T2DM and intra-abdominal postoperative abscesses, group 2 – 12 patients without T2DM but with intra-abdominal postoperative abscesses and 24 healthy individuals. The level of IL-8and IL-10 serum was determined on the day before surgery, on the 2-3rd and 5-7th day after surgery in patients with type 2 diabetes and intra-abdominal postoperative abscesses. Results and conclusions: The trajectories of the level of interleukins in patients with type 2 Diabetes mellitus were different from the trajectories of their level in patients without diabetes, which indicates a special immune response to nosocomial infection and surgical trauma. The mechanism of changes in serum levels of IL-8 and IL-10 in patients with type 2 Diabetes mellitus and postoperative intra-abdominal abscesses should be further studied in future studies on the specific causative agent of nosocomial infection and the cytokine response to it.

The aim of our study was to evaluate the effects of vitamin D supplementation on circulating levels of magnesium and selenium in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). A total of 126 adult Saudi patients (55 men and 71 women, mean age 53.6 ± 10.7 years) with controlled T2DM were randomly recruited for the study. All subjects were given vitamin D3 tablets (2000 IU/day) for six months. Follow-up mean concentrations of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25-(OH) vitamin D] significantly increased in both men (34.1 ± 12.4 to 57.8 ± 17.0 nmol/L) and women (35.7 ± 13.5 to 60.1 ± 18.5 nmol/L, p < 0.001), while levels of parathyroid hormone (PTH) decreased significantly in both men (1.6 ± 0.17 to 0.96 ± 0.10 pmol/L, p = 0.003) and women (1.6 ± 0.17 to 1.0 ± 0.14 pmol/L, p = 0.02). In addition, there was a significant increase in serum levels of selenium and magnesium in men and women (p-values < 0.001 and 0.04, respectively) after follow-up. In women, a significant correlation was observed between delta change (variables at six months-variable at baseline) of serum magnesium versus high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol (r = 0.36, p = 0.006) and fasting glucose (r = - 0.33, p = 0.01). In men, there was a significant correlation between serum selenium and triglycerides (r = 0.32, p = 0.04). Vitamin D supplementation improves serum concentrations of magnesium and selenium in a gender-dependent manner, which in turn could affect several cardiometabolic parameters such as glucose and lipids.

Abstract. INFLUENCE OF HORMONAL DISORDERS ON ENDOTHELIAL DYSFUNCTION IN PATIENTS WITH ARTERIAL HYPERTENSION AND COMORBIDE ENDOCRINOPATHIES Bilovol O.M., Nemtsova V.D., Ilchenko I.A., Zlatkina V.V. Purpose: to investigate the effect of hormonal changes on endothelial dysfunction (ED) in patients with a comorbid course of hypertension (H), type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and subclinical hypothyroidism (SHT). Methods: 183 patients with  H stage II were divided into 3 groups: Group 1 (n=50) - with isolated H (comparison group); Group 2 (n=63) - with a combined course of H and T2DM; Group 3 (n=70) - with comorbidity of H, T2DM and SHT. Blood pressure levels, carbohydrate, lipid and thyroid metabolism, plasma insulin concentration, insulin resistance (IR) the HOMA-IR index, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF-A) plasma levels were investigated. Results: Dyslipidemia was more pronounced in group 2 than in group 1. The addition of SHT was accompanied by a tendency to increase all the atherogenic lipids. IR was observed in all patients groups and was significantly higher than in control group (p<0.05). Significant increase of VEGF-A levels in all patients groups in comparison with the control (p<0.05) was found. In group 2 VEGF-A was lower than in group 1, which is probably due to the protective effect of metformin. Analysis  of the influence of thyroid dysfunction degree on ED revealed significant increase of VEGF-A levels in TSH>6.0 μMU/ml subgroup (352.55±17.64 pg/ml vs 461.74±20.13 pg/ml (p<0.05)). Conclusion: Hormonal disorders contribute to aggravation of endothelial dysfunction in patients with hypertension and comorbid endocrinopathies - type 2 diabetes mellitus and subclinical hypothyroidism. Even minor decrease in thyroid function lead to the progression of endothelial dysfunction. Key words: hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus, subclinical hypothyroidism, endothelial dysfunction   Резюме. ВПЛИВ ГОРМОНАЛЬНИХ ПОРУШЕНЬ НА ЕНДОТЕЛІАЛЬНУ ДИСФУНКЦІЮ УПАЦІЄНТІВ З АРТЕРІАЛЬНОЮ ГІПЕРТЕНЗІЄЮ ТА КОМОРБІДНИМИ ЕНДОКРИНОПАТІЯМИ Біловол О.М., Немцова В.Д., Ільченко І.А., Златкіна В.В. Мета: дослідити вплив гормональних змін на ендотеліальну дисфункцію (ЕД) у пацієнтів з коморбідним перебігом артеріальної гіпертензії (АГ), цукрового діабету 2 типу (ЦД2Т) тасубклінічного гіпотиреозу (СГТ). Матеріали та методи: 183 пацієнта з АГ II стадії були розділені на 3 групи: 1-а група (n=50) - з ізольованою АГ (група порівняння); Група 2 (n=63) - з поєднаним перебігом АГ та ЦД2Т; Група 3 (n 70) – з комбінованим перебігом АГ, ЦД2Т і СГТ. Вивчали рівні артеріального тиску, показники вуглеводного, ліпідного і тиреоїдного обміну, концентрацію інсуліну в плазмі, індекс інсулінорезистентності (ІР) - HOMA-IR, рівні васкулоендотеліального фактора росту (VEGF-A) в плазмі. Результати. Ступінь дисліпідемії у 2-й групі була більш вираженою, ніж в 1-й. Приєднання СГТ супроводжувалося тенденцією до збільшення всіх атерогенних фракцій ліпідів. ІР спостерігалася у всіх групах пацієнтів і була достовірно більше, ніж у контрольній групі (р<0,05). Виявлено достовірне підвищення рівнів VEGF-A у всіх групах пацієнтів в порівнянні з контролем (р<0,05). В 2-й групі рівні VEGF-A були нижче, ніж в 1-й групі, що, ймовірно, пов'язано з протективним ефектом метформіну. Аналіз впливу ступеня гіпофункції щитовидної залози на ЕД виявив значне збільшення рівнів VEGF-A в підгрупі TSH> 6,0 мкМ / мл (352,55 ± 17,64 пг / мл і 461,74 ± 20,13 пг / мл відповідно, р <0,05). Висновки. Гормональні порушення сприяють погіршенню ендотеліальної дисфункції у пацієнтів з артеріальною гіпертензією та супутніми ендокринопатіями - цукровим діабетом 2 типу та субклінічним гіпотиреозом. Навіть незначне зниження функції щитовидної залози призводить до прогресування ендотеліальної дисфункції.

ВЛИЯНИЕ ГОРМОНАЛЬНЫХ НАРУШЕНИЙ НА ЭНДОТЕЛИАЛЬНУЮ ДИСФУНКЦИЮ У ПАЦИЕНТОВ С АРТЕРИАЛЬНОЙ ГИПЕРТЕНЗИЕЙ И КОМОРБИДНЫМИ ЭНДОКРИНОПАТИЯМИ Беловол О.М., Немцова В.Д., Ильченко И.А., Златкина В.В. Цель: исследовать влияние гормональных изменений на эндотелиальную дисфункцию (ЭД) у пациентов с коморбидным течением артериальной гипертензии (АГ), сахарного диабета 2 типа (СД2Т) и субклинического гипотиреоза (СГТ). Материалы и методы: 183 пациента с АГ IIстадии были разделены на 3 группы: 1-я группа (n = 50) - с изолированной АГ (группа сравнения); Группа 2 (n = 63) - с сочетанным течением АГ и СД2Т; Группа 3 (n = 70) - комбинированное течение АГ, СД2Т и СГТ. Изучали уровни артериального давления,  показатели  углеводного, липидного и тиреоидного обмена, концентрацию инсулина в плазме, индекс инсулинорезистентности (ИР)- HOMA-IR, уровни васкулоэндотелиального фактора роста(VEGF-A) в плазме. Результаты. Степень дислипидемии во 2-й группе была более выраженной, чем в 1-й.  Присоединение СГТ сопровождалось тенденцией к увеличению всех атерогенных фракций липидов. ИР наблюдалась во всех группах пациентов и была достоверно больше, чем в контрольной группе (р<0,05). Выявлено достоверное повышение уровней VEGF-A во всех группах пациентов по сравнению с контролем (р <0,05). Во 2-й группе уровни VEGF-A были ниже, чем в 1-й группе, что, вероятно, связано с протективным эффектом метформина. Анализ влияния степени дисфункции щитовидной железы на ЭД выявил значительное увеличение уровней VEGF-A в подгруппе TSH> 6,0 мкМ/мл (352,55 ± 17,64 пг / мл и 461,74 ± 20,13 пг / мл соответственно, р<0,05). Заключение. Гормональные нарушения способствуют ухудшению эндотелиальной дисфункции у пациентов с артериальной гипертензией и сопутствующими эндокринопатиями - сахарным диабетом 2 типа и субклиническим гипотиреозом. Даже незначительное снижение функции щитовидной железы приводит к прогрессированию эндотелиальной дисфункции. Ключевые слова: гипертензия, сахарный диабет 2 тип, субклинический гипотиреоз, эндотелиальная дисфункция

BackgroundPrevious studies showed altered angiopoietin-like protein-8 (ANGPTL-8) and resistin circulating levels in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Whether or not the alteration in ANGPTL-8 and resistin level can be a predictive maker for increased diabetic nephropathy risk remains unclear.AimTo Investigate the possible association of ANGPTL-8 and resistin with DN, and whether this association is affected by NAFLD status.MethodsA total of 278 T2DM patients were enrolled. Serum levels of ANGPTL8, resistin, BMI, blood pressure, duration of diabetes, glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), fasting blood glucose (FPG), hypersensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), lipid profile, liver, and kidney function tests were assessed. The relationship between DN with ANGPTL8 and resistin was analyzed in the unadjusted and multiple-adjusted regression models.ResultsSerum levels of ANGPTL8 and resistin were significantly higher in DN compared with T2DM subjects without DN (respectively; P &lt;0.001), especially in non-NAFLD populations. ANGPTL8 and resistin showed positive correlation with hs-CRP (respectively; P&lt;0.01), and negative correlation with estimated GFR (eGFR) (respectively; P=&lt;0.001) but no significant correlation to HOMA-IR(respectively; P&gt;0.05). Analysis showed ANGPTL8 levels were positively associated with resistin but only in T2DM patients with DN(r=0.1867; P&lt;0.05), and this significant correlation disappeared in T2DM patients without DN. After adjusting for confounding factors, both ANGPTL8(OR=2.095, 95%CI 1.253-3.502 P=0.005) and resistin (OR=2.499, 95%CI 1.484-4.208 P=0.001) were risk factors for DN. Data in non-NAFLD population increased the relationship between ANGPTL8 (OR=2.713, 95% CI 1.494-4.926 P=0.001), resistin (OR=4.248, 95% CI 2.260-7.987 P&lt;0.001)and DN. The area under the curve (AUC) on receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis of the combination of ANGPTL8 and resistin was 0.703, and the specificity was 70.4%. These data were also increased in non-NAFLD population, as the AUC (95%CI) was 0.756, and the specificity was 91.2%.ConclusionThis study highlights a close association between ANGPTL8, resistin and DN, especially in non-NAFLD populations. These results suggest that ANGPTL-8 and resistin may be risk predictors of DN.

Aim: We aimed to investigate biomarkers of inflammation, oxidative stress as surrogate markers of subclinical atherosclerosis in patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Materials & methods: Subjects were grouped based on carotid intima media thickness (CIMT). Group 1: healthy controls (CIMT <0.57 mm); Group 2: T2DM without subclinical atherosclerosis (CIMT <0.57 mm); Group 3: T2DM with subclinical atherosclerosis (CIMT ≥0.57 mm). Results: Significantly higher MDA, Hs-CRP, Ox-LDL, PTX-3, IL-6, ICAM-1 and lower FRAP, IL-10 levels in T2DM groups compared with controls (p = 0.001). Changes were more significant in Group 3 compared with Group 2. ICAM-1 had the highest sensitivity and specificity at a cut-off value of >40.34 ng/ml compared with Ox-LDL and PTX-3 (p < 0.001). Conclusion: ICAM can be considered as an alternate surrogate biomarker of CIMT.

Objective Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a main risk factor for development of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and endothelial dysfunction. This study aimed to investigate serum levels of soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (sVCAM-1), intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (sICAM-1), and endothelium selectin (sE-selectin) in T2DM patients with macrovascular complications. Methods A cross-sectional study of 21 controls, 30 T2DM patients without CVDs, and 30 T2DM patients with CVDs was conducted. Serum levels of soluble adhesion molecules including sVCAM-1, sICAM-1, and sE-selectin were determined using ELISA. Results Serum levels of sVCAM-1, sICAM-1, and sE-selectin were higher in T2DM patients than in controls. Levels of serum sVCAM-1 were higher in T2DM patients with CVDs compared with T2DM patients without CVDs. In T2DM patients with CVDs, significant positive associations were observed between sVCAM-1, sICAM-1, and sE-selectin levels (r = 0.575, p = 0.001 and r = 0.378, p = 0.040). Conclusions Circulating levels of soluble adhesion molecules were elevated in T2DM patients, regardless of whether the patients had cardiovascular complications. Only sVCAM-1 was considered a useful marker for the prediction of CVDs in T2DM patients.
