METABOLIC SYNDROME AND ASSOCIATED RISK FACTORS AMONG SECONDARY SCHOOL ADOLESCENTS IN NORTHEAST NIGERIA
10-12-2023CONCLUSION: This study showed that the prevalence of metabolic syndrome was low in the overall study population but high among centrally obese adolescents. Metabolic syndrome occurred in normal weight and underweight participants. Low HDL-C was the commonest risk factor for metabolic syndrome and lifestyle and family medical history were not associated with metabolic syndrome.

FTO is a major genetic link between breast cancer, obesity, and diabetes
09-12-2023CONCLUSIONS: This study suggests that the FTO gene is one of the major genes shared by BC, T2DM, and obesity based on two DNA repair and inflammatory mechanisms. These results may provide a new perspective on the important role of the FTO gene and repair mechanism in the relationship between BC, obesity, and T2DM for future studies.

ECHDC3 variant regulates the right hippocampal microstructural integrity and verbal memory in type 2 diabetes mellitus
09-12-2023ECHDC3 is a risk gene for white matter (WM) hyperintensity and is associated with insulin resistance. This study aimed to investigate whether ECHDC3 variants selectively regulate brain WM microstructures and episodic memory in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). We enrolled 106 patients with T2DM and 111 healthy controls. A voxel-wise general linear model was employed to explore the interaction effect between ECHDC3 rs11257311 polymorphism and T2DM diagnosis on fractional anisotropy...

Trabecular Bone Score (TBS) in Individuals with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: An Updated Review
09-12-2023Bone fragility is a complication of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) that has been identified in recent decades. Trabecular bone score (TBS) appears to be more accurate than bone mineral density (BMD) in diabetic bone disease, particularly in menopausal women with T2DM, to independently capture the fracture risk. Our purpose was to provide the most recent overview on TBS-associated clinical data in T2DM. The core of this narrative review is based on original studies (PubMed-indexed journals,...

The Role of Autophagy in Type 2 Diabetic Kidney Disease Management
09-12-2023Diabetic kidney disease (DKD), or diabetic nephropathy (DN), is one of the most prevalent complications of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and causes severe burden on the general welfare of T2DM patients around the world. While several new agents have shown promise in treating this condition and potentially halting the progression of the disease, more work is needed to understand the complex regulatory network involved in the disorder. Recent studies have provided new insights into the...
