AIM: To identify the features of the course of COVID-19 in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), depending on the intake of hypoglycemic therapy at the prehospital stage, in conjunction with the functional state of the kidneys. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective analysis of 291 case histories of patients with COVID-19 and T2DM hospitalized in the infection department of Semashko Regional Clinical Hospital from January to December 2021, including the main clinical and laboratory parameters...

We aimed to analyze the profile of glucose lowering therapy (GLT) in persons with diabetes mellitus type 2 (DM2) in an aging Russian population. A random population sample ( n = 3898, men/women, 55-84) was examined in Novosibirsk, during 2015-2018 (HAPIEE Project). The design of the present work is a cross-sectional study. DM2 was defined in those with a history of DM2 receiving GLT, or at a level of fasting plasma glucose (FPG) ≥7.0 mmol/L. The entire DM2 group was included in the analysis ( n = 803); of these, 476 persons were taking GLT and were included in the analysis at stage 2...

BACKGROUND: This consensus aims to clarify the role of Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4 inhibitors (iDPP-4) in managing patients with diabetes during the COVID-19 pandemic. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A PubMed bibliographic search was carried out (December 2019-February 2021). Oxford methodology was used for the evaluation of evidence and possible recommendations were established by consensus. RESULTS: Diabetes appears to be an independent factor in COVID-19 disease (evidence 2b)...

BACKGROUND: Increased mortality due to type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has been associated with renal and/or cardiovascular dysfunction. Dipeptidyl dipeptidase-4 inhibitors (iDPP-4s) may exert cardioprotective effects through their pleiotropic actions via glucagon-like peptide 1-dependent mechanisms. In this study, the pharmacological profile of a new iDPP-4 (LASSBio-2124) was investigated in rats with cardiac and renal dysfunction induced by T2DM. METHODS: T2DM was induced in rats by 2 weeks of a high-fat diet followed by intravenous injection of streptozotocin...

Sitagliptin is a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor (iDPP-4), which has been used for type 2 diabetes treatment. Recently, iDPP-4 has been described as a promising treatment of type 1 diabetes (T1D) but is still necessary to evaluate immune effects of sitagliptin. C57BL/6 mice were induced by multiple low doses of streptozotocin. Diabetes incidence, insulin, glucagon, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) serum levels, and inflammatory cytokine levels were quantified in pancreas homogenate after 30 and 90 days of treatment...

INTRODUCTION: Bradykinin-mediated angioedema (AE) is a rare side effect of some medications, including angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi) and angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB). In France, side-effects to treatments are reported to the national pharmacovigilance database. METHODS: The national MedDRA database was searched using the term "angioedema". Patients were included if they met the clinical criteria corresponding to bradykinin-mediated AE, if their C1-inhibitor levels were normal, and if they were treated with an ACEi or an ARB...

We describe the synthesis and photophysical properties of a series of derivatives of pyrrolo[3,2-b]pyrrole-2,5(1H,4H)-dione-3,6-diyl (iDPP) linked to two oligothiophenes of variable length (nT). The iso-DPP-oligothiophenes (iDPPnTs) differ from the common pyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrrole-1,4(2H,5H)-dione-3,6-diyl-oligothiophene analogues (DPPnTs) by a different orientation of the two lactam rings in the bicyclic iDPP unit compared to DPP. In contrast to the highly fluorescent DPPnTs, the new isomeric iDPPnTs exhibit only very weak fluorescence...

OBJECTIVE: The Indian Diabetes Prevention Programme-1 (IDPP-1) showed that lifestyle modification (LSM) and metformin were effective for primary prevention of diabetes in subjects with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT). Among subjects followed up for 3 years (n = 502), risk reductions versus those for the control group were 28.5, 26.4, and 28.2% in LSM, metformin (MET), and LSM plus MET groups, respectively. In this analysis, the roles of changes in secretion and action of insulin in improving the outcome were studied...

OBJECTIVE: In the Indian Diabetes Prevention Programme (IDPP), a 3-year randomized, controlled trial, lifestyle modification (LSM) and metformin helped to prevent type 2 diabetes in subjects with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT). The direct medical costs and cost-effectiveness of the interventions relative to the control group are reported here. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: Relative effectiveness and costs of interventions (LSM, metformin, and LSM and metformin) in the IDPP were estimated from the health care system perspective...

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: Lifestyle modification helps in the primary prevention of diabetes in multiethnic American, Finnish and Chinese populations. In a prospective community-based study, we tested whether the progression to diabetes could be influenced by interventions in native Asian Indians with IGT who were younger, leaner and more insulin resistant than the above populations. METHODS: We randomised 531 (421 men 110 women) subjects with IGT (mean age 45.9+/-5.7 years, BMI 25...
