BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to investigate long-term risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D) following a diagnosis of gestational diabetes and to identify factors that were associated with increased risk of T2D. METHODS An observational cohort design was used, following up all women diagnosed with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) attending a Diabetes Antenatal Clinic in the Dundee and Angus...

OBJECTIVE To analyse the evolution of the frequency of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and its relationship to eating patterns in Mexico from 1961 to 2013, and the Gini coefficient, Human Development Index (HDI) and Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Mexico ranked sixth in world prevalence of diabetes in 2015 with an estimated 11.4 million Mexicans affected. METHOD Using data from the Balance Sheets Food pu...

BACKGROUND Low diet quality and depression symptoms are independently associated with poor glycemic control in subjects with type 2 diabetes (T2D); however, the relationship between them is unclear. The aim of this study was to determine the association between diet quality and symptoms of depression among Cuban-Americans with and without T2D living in South Florida. METHODS Subjects (n = 356...

The effects of dyslipidemia on the risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and related traits are not clear. We used regression models and 140 lipid-associated genetic variants to estimate associations between circulating HDL cholesterol (HDL-C), LDL cholesterol (LDL-C), and triglycerides and T2D and related traits. Each genetic test was corrected for effects of variants on the other two lipid types and ...

This research extracted patient-reported symptoms from free-text EHR notes of colorectal and breast cancer patients studied the correlation with comorbid type 2 diabetes, race, smoking status. An NLP framework was developed first to use UMLS MetaMap extract all symptom terms 366,398 clinical 1694 (CRC) 3458 (BC) patients. Semantic analysis clustering algorithms were then categorize relevant int...

The impact of type 2 diabetes (T2D) on the ability of muscle to accumulate and dispose of fatty acids and triglycerides (TG) was evaluated in cultured muscle cells from non-diabetic (ND) and Type 2 diabetic (T2D) subjects. In the presence of 5 µM palmitate T2D muscle cells accumulated less lipid than ND cells (11.5±1.2 vs 15.1±1.4 nmol/mg protein, p<0.05). Chronic treatment (4 d) with a PPAR ag...

OBJECTIVES The study provided data to demonstrate the characteristics of type 2 diabetes (T2D) with ketosis in rural parts of south-west border of China in order to help health professionals with optimizing diabetic care. METHODS All hospitalized adult diabetic patients consecutively between January 2011 and July 2015 in Baoshan People's Hospital, Yunnan province of China, were evaluated. T2D...

INTRODUCTION Type 2 Diabetes (non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, T2D) has detrimental impacts on multiple organ systems including the renal, circulatory and nervous systems. Destructive effects are also apparent on the musculoskeletal system, although studies are limited in comparison. T2D likely affects bone and other collagen-based tissues through multiple mechanisms. Chronic hyperglyce...
