Women with prior gestational diabetes (GDM) are at increased diabetes risk. This study aimed to assess whether lifestyle is associated with glycemic health of high-risk women 5 years postpartum, taking into account the pre-pregnancy BMI. The RADIEL study enrolled before or in early pregnancy 720 women with pre-pregnancy BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2 and/or prior ...

Besides energy supply, β-hydroxybutyrate (BHB) acts as a bioactive molecule to play multiple protective roles, even in diabetes and its complications. The aim of this study was to investigate the antagonizing effects of BHB against diabetic glomerulosclerosis and the underlying mechanism. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were intraperitoneally injected wit...

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) and obesity are strongly associated with cardiovascular (CV) risk and can start in the paediatric age. The CV risk profile of two groups of adolescents was compared through the evaluation of sAGE, IMT and known variables associated with CV risk. The first group was affected by T1D with duration of disease of at least 5 years o...

A higher SGLT1 and GLUT2 gene expression was shown in the intestine of subjects with type 2 diabetes, while no data have been reported in type 1 diabetes (T1D). The purpose of our study was to evaluate the expression of glucose transporters in duodenal mucosa of subjects with T1D, compared to healthy controls (CTRL) and to patients with celiac dise...

The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of metformin in diabetes prevention in a prediabetic population across a range of fasting plasma glucose (FPG) levels at baseline. A secondary aim was to assess the effectiveness of metformin in preventing diabetes in those participants where impaired fasting glucose (IFG) was relatively mo...

Although strategies to prevent premature sensor loss for flash glucose monitoring (FGM) systems may have substantial benefit, limited data are available. This study among youth with high-risk type 1 diabetes evaluated whether an additional adhesive patch over FGM sensors would reduce premature sensor loss frequency and not cause additional cutaneou...

The study evaluated the effect of different concentrations of sildenafil-containing ointment on wound healing in healthy and streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats. A total of 108 Sprague Dawley male rats aged 5 months were randomly divided into two groups: healthy and diabetes-inducing rats. Following induction of diabetes by intraperitoneal S...

To observe the effect of calcitriol on tubular epithelial cells apoptosis in diabetic nephropathy (DN) and to explore the possible mechanism of its renal protection. In vivo, DN rats established by streptozocin (STZ) were treated with or without calcitriol by gavage. Rats were killed at 18 weeks after treatment. In vitro, HK-2 cells were cultured i...
