- Type 2 diabetes is the most common metabolic disorder today and has reached epidemic proportions in many countries. Insulin resistance and inflammation play a central role in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes and are present long before the onset of the disease. During this time, many of the complications associated with type 2 diabetes are initiated. Of major concern is the two- to fourfold increase in cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in this group compared to a nondiabetic population. Obesity, characterized by enlarged fat cells, and insulin resistance are, like type 2 diabetes, associated with impaired adipogenesis and a low-grade chronic inflammation that to a large extent emanates from the adipose tissue. Both these processes contribute to unfavourable alterations of the circulating levels of several bioactive molecules (adipokines) that are secreted from the adipose tissue, many of which have documented inhibitory effects on insulin sensitivity in the liver and peripheral tissues and, in addition, have negative effects on the cardiovascular system.Here we review current knowledge of the adipose tissue as an endocrine organ, the local and systemic effects of a chronic state of low-grade inflammation residing in the adipose tissue, and, in particular, the effects of inflammation and circulating adipokines on the vascular wall.

- Aims: This study aimed to assess (1) the use of different offloading interventions in Sweden for the healing of diabetes-related plantar neuropathic forefoot ulcers, (2) factors influencing the offloading intervention choice, and (3) the awareness of current gold standard offloading devices.Methods: An online questionnaire was distributed via SurveyMonkey to 51 prosthetic and orthotic clinics in Sweden.Results: Thirty-five (69%) practitioners responded to the questionnaire. Eighty-six percent of the practitioners provided modified off-the-shelf footwear combined with insoles to treat diabetes-related plantar neuropathic forefoot ulcers. A total contact cast (TCC) was provided by 20% of the practitioners, and a nonremovable knee-high walker was provided by 0%. Multiple practitioner-, patient-, intervention-, and wound-related factors were considered when practitioners provided offloading interventions to patients with this type of ulcer. The majority of the practitioners did not or were unsure whether they considered TCC or a non-removable knee-high walker to be the gold standard treatment.Conclusions: Practitioners mainly provided the offloading intervention that the International Working Group on the Diabetic Foot strongly recommends not be provided, namely, modified off-the-shelf footwear with insoles. In contrast, TCC and nonremovable knee-high walkers, as the gold standards, were vastly underutilised. Therefore, the pattern of providing offloading interventions was almost exactly opposite to the recommendations of evidence-based guidelines. Different factors were considered when providing offloading interventions to patients with diabetes-related plantar neuropathic forefoot ulcers. The practitioners' lack of awareness regarding gold standard devices may have contributed to the underutilisation of TCC and nonremovable knee-high walkers.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- BACKGROUND: To study the acute effect of nateglinide, an insulinotropic agent, on the postprandial triglyceride and lipoprotein responses in subjects at risk for type 2 diabetes. METHODS: Six women and 10 men, with at least one first-degree relative with type 2 diabetes were included (Age: 48 +/- 7 years, BMI: 27.5 +/- 2.8 kg m(-2), P-triglycerides: 1.3 +/- 0.4 mmol L(-1), P-cholesterol: 5.4 +/- 0.6 mmol L(-1), B-glucose: 4.6 +/- 0.3 mmol L(-1)). They each had two 8-h meal tolerance tests with either nateglinide or placebo given 10 min prior to the meals in randomized order. Lipoprotein fractions were separated by density gradient ultracentrifugation. First-phase insulin secretion was assessed by an intravenous glucose tolerance test (300 mg kg(-1) body weight) and insulin sensitivity by a hyperinsulinaemic euglycaemic clamp (40 mU m(-2) min(-1)). RESULTS: The 1-h insulin levels during the meal tolerance test were significantly higher with nateglinide (577 +/- 81 vs 376 +/- 58 pmol L(-1), p < 0.001), as well as the response during the first two hours (IAUC: 41 243 +/- 5844 vs 29 956 +/- 4662 pmol L(-1) min, p < 0.01). Accordingly, nateglinide lowered the 8-h postprandial glucose response by around 60% compared to placebo (p < 0.001). In contrast, no significant lowering was seen in the excursion of postprandial triglycerides in total plasma or lipoprotein fractions. Consistently, the concentration of exogenous (apoB-48) and endogenous (apoB-100) lipoproteins was not reduced by nateglinide. CONCLUSIONS: Acute administration of nateglinide reduces, as expected, the postprandial glucose concentration, but no reduction in triglyceride or lipoprotein responses are seen in subjects at risk for type 2 diabetes.

- Aim We aimed to study the feasibility and tolerability of a combination therapy consisting of glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD-alum), Etanercept and vitamin D in children and adolescents with newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes (T1D), and evaluate preservation of beta cell function. Material and Methods Etanercept Diamyd Combination Regimen is an open-labelled multi-centre study pilot trial which enrolled 20 GAD antibodies positive T1D patients (7 girls and 13 boys), aged (mean +/- SD): 12.4 +/- 2.3 (8.3-16.1) years, with a diabetes duration of 81.4 +/- 22.1 days. Baseline fasting C-peptide was 0.24 +/- 0.1 (0.10-0.35) nmol/l. The patients received Day 1-450 Vitamin D (Calciferol) 2000 U/d per os, Etanercept sc Day 1-90 0.8 mg/kg once a week and GAD-alum sc injections (20 mu g, Diamyd (TM)) Day 30 and 60. They were followed for 30 months. Results No treatment related serious adverse events were observed. After 6 months 90-min stimulated C-peptide had improved in 8/20 patients and C-peptide area under the curve (AUC) after Mixed Meal Tolerance Test in 5 patients, but declined thereafter, while HbA1c and insulin requirement remained close to baseline. Administration of Etanercept did not reduce tumour necrosis factor (TNF) spontaneous secretion from peripheral blood mononuclear cells, but rather GAD65-induced TNF-alpha increased. Spontaneous interleukin-17a secretion increased after the administration of Etanercept, and GAD65-induced cytokines and chemokines were also enhanced following 1 month of Etanercept administration. Conclusions Combination therapy with parallel treatment with GAD-alum, Etanercept and vitamin D in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes was feasible and tolerable but had no beneficial effects on the autoimmune process or beta cell function.

- BACKGROUND: Childhood obesity is a growing epidemic worldwide and it is associated with metabolic complications, such as insulin resistance. Recently, a genetic variation (rs7607980) in the cordon-bleu protein-like 1 (COBLL1) gene has been associated with lower insulin resistance in adults. The aim of the study was to investigate if the association between COBLL1 rs7607980 genetic variant and lower insulin resistance was present early in life. METHODS: This sequence variant was genotyped in 878 overweight and obese children (mean age: 10 years) from Sardinia, Italy, from the outpatient clinic of the Pediatric Endocrine Unit, at the Regional Hospital for Microcitaemia in Cagliari. Insulin resistance was assessed by measurement of fasting circulating insulin levels before and after an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and by homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR). RESULTS: The COBLL1 rs7607980 C allele was associated with lower fasting insulin and HOMA-IR levels (P = 0.002 and P = 0.035, respectively) in overweight and obese children. Importantly, lower insulin levels were also observed two hours after OGTT in C allele carriers (P = 0.009). CONCLUSIONS: The present study shows for the first time the association between COBLL1 rs7607980 C allele, lower serum insulin levels and lower insulin resistance in overweight and obese children.

- Purpose Subclinical systemic inflammation may lead to development of type 2 diabetes, but there has been no investigation into its relationship with early progression of glycaemic deterioration and insulin resistance, especially in younger population. In this study we assessed longitudinal associations of pro- and anti-inflammatory markers with markers that evaluate glycaemia and insulin resistance. Methods This study includes 6537 initially nondiabetic children (mean age at baseline = 6.2 years) with repeated measurements from the IDEFICS/I.Family cohort study (mean follow-up = 5.3 years) from eight European countries. Markers of inflammation were used as independent variables and markers of glycaemia/insulin resistance as dependent variables. Associations were examined using two-level growth model. Models were adjusted for sex, age, major lifestyle, metabolic risk factors, early life markers, and other inflammatory markers in final model. Results Children with 6 years of follow-up showed that a one-unit increase in z-score of leptin level was associated with 0.38 (95% CI = 0.32 to 0.44) unit increase in HOMA-IR z-scores. Leptin continued to be associated with HOMA-IR even when analysis was limited to children with no overall obesity, no abdominal obesity, and low to normal triglyceride levels. An inverse association was observed between IL-15 and HOMA-IR (beta = -0.11, 95% CI = -0.15 to -0.07). Conclusions IL-15 should be evaluated further in the prevention or treatment of prediabetes whereas leptin may prove to be useful in early detection of prediabetes via their association with markers of insulin resistance in European children.

- AimIt is of interest to predict possible lifetime risk of type 1 diabetes (T1D) in young children for recruiting high-risk subjects into longitudinal studies of effective prevention strategies. MethodsUtilizing a case-control study in Sweden, we applied a recently developed next generation targeted sequencing technology to genotype class II genes and applied an object-oriented regression to build and validate a prediction model for T1D. ResultsIn the training set, estimated risk scores were significantly different between patients and controls (P=8.12x10(-92)), and the area under the curve (AUC) from the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was 0.917. Using the validation data set, we validated the result with AUC of 0.886. Combining both training and validation data resulted in a predictive model with AUC of 0.903. Further, we performed a biological validation by correlating risk scores with 6 islet autoantibodies, and found that the risk score was significantly correlated with IA-2A (Z-score=3.628, Pamp;lt;0.001). When applying this prediction model to the Swedish population, where the lifetime T1D risk ranges from 0.5% to 2%, we anticipate identifying approximately 20 000 high-risk subjects after testing all newborns, and this calculation would identify approximately 80% of all patients expected to develop T1D in their lifetime. ConclusionThrough both empirical and biological validation, we have established a prediction model for estimating lifetime T1D risk, using class II HLA. This prediction model should prove useful for future investigations to identify high-risk subjects for prevention research in high-risk populations.

- AimsThe main objective of this study was to estimate the occurrence of diabetic nephropathy in a population-based cohort of patients diagnosed with diabetes as young adults (15-34years). MethodsAll 794 patients registered 1987-1988 in the Diabetes Incidence Study in Sweden (DISS) were invited to a follow-up study 15-19years after diagnosis, and 468 (58%) participated. Analysis of islet antibodies was used to classify type of diabetes. ResultsAfter median 17years of diabetes, 15% of all patients, 14% T1DM and 25% T2DM, were diagnosed with diabetic nephropathy. Ninety-one percent had microalbuminuria and 8.6% macroalbuminuria. Older age at diagnosis (HR 1.05; 95% CI 1.01-1.10 per year) was an independent and a higher BMI at diabetes diagnosis (HR 1.04; 95% CI 1.00-1.09 per 1kg/m(2)), a near-significant predictor of development of diabetic nephropathy. Age at onset of diabetes (p=0.041), BMI (p=0.012) and HbA1c (p<0.001) were significant predictors of developing diabetic nephropathy between 9 and 17years of diabetes. At 17years of diabetes duration, a high HbA1c level (OR 1.06; 95% CI 1.03-1.08 per 1mmol/mol increase) and systolic blood pressure (OR 1.08; 95% CI 1.051.12 per 1mmHg increase) were associated with DN. ConclusionsPatients with T2DM diagnosed as young adults seem to have an increased risk to develop diabetic nephropathy compared with those with T1DM. Older age and higher BMI at diagnosis of diabetes were risk markers for development of diabetic nephropathy. In addition, poor glycaemic control but not systolic blood pressure at 9years of follow-up was a risk marker for later development of diabetic nephropathy. Copyright (c) 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

- BACKGROUND: To study the association between renal function and hospitalization for heart failure (HF) in individuals with type 2 diabetes. METHODS: Renal function was determined according to 3 formulas used to estimate glomerular filtration rate (eGFR): Cockcroft-Gault, Modified Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD), and Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology (CKD-EPI). Proportional hazards regression models adjusted for age, sex, HbA1c, blood pressure, smoking, and cardiovascular comorbidities were constructed for each eGFR formula to estimate risk of HF hospitalization. RESULTS: In 54,486 patients, using Cockcroft-Gault, 41% were categorized as having normal renal function (eGFR > 90 ml/min), compared to 22.9% using MDRD and 21.6% using CKD-EPI. In the cohort, there were 21%-24% (depending on eGFR formula) with eGFR 90 ml/min/1.73 m2). Hazard ratios (HRs) ranged from 1.25 to 1.35 for eGFR 45-60 ml/min/1.73 m2,1.62 to 1.66 for eGFR 30-45 ml/min/1.73 m2, and 2.18 to 2.52 for eGFR
