To evaluate the long-term remission rate of short-term intensive insulin (STII) therapy in newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes outpatients and investigate the predictors contributing to the remission rate.

Diabetes is a chronic and progressive disease that affects nearly 3.5 million people in France. Currently the investigators are seeing an aging of the population explained by the increase in life expectancy and thus an increasing incidence of diabetes in the elderly. However, the frequency of hypoglycemia in older vulnerable patients remains poorly characterized
Morning hyperglycemia plays a role in the future development of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes (T2D) (8) and is associated with numerous microvascular and cardiovascular complications and renal disease. These augmented morning glucose levels are due to an elevated endogenous glucose production (EGP), as a result of a loss of coordination between glucose levels and insulin secretion, and possibly hyperglucagonemia during the overnight period. Exercise stimulates glucose uptake and increases insulin sensitivity acutely, and may be the best lifestyle intervention to minimize the nocturnal rise in glucose levels. Prescription of the timing of exercise relative to a meal and/or to the overnight period may be particularly critical for individuals that have impaired fasting glucose (IFG) levels. Surprisingly little is known about the overnight period when elevated EGP and the synchrony between glucose and c-peptide/glucagon levels becomes disturbed. This novel study will provide insight into the hormonal/metabolic milieu of a dinner meal, the evening and overnight period that occurs in non-obese, OB and OB+IFG individuals; it will also establish if the timing of exercise can attenuate nocturnal glucose elevations, and if this is associated with improved hormonal synchrony. This project will compare EGP, β-cell function and hormonal responses between morning and evening exercise on the postprandial and overnight period in obese individuals with/without IFG levels. Fifty-four subjects will be studied during the evening meal (EGP and β-cell function), postprandially and through the overnight period (1600-0700 h), allowing us to examine some of the potential mechanisms for the elevation in overnight glucose levels. This is the first study that will examine this issue from pre-dinner through the night while previous studies have only examined chronically fasted individuals and this study will lay the groundwork for understanding the pathology of the predawn phenomena in OB+IFG individuals. These potentially translational findings may impact the efficiency of physician communication to patients concerning exercise. These investigators are one of the few groups that study subjects through the overnight period and have the facilities and capability to do this research.
Unstable plaque, the primary cause of myocardial infarction, is characterized by distinct a morphology including positive remodeling (PR), low attenuated plaque (LAP), napkin ring sign (NRS), and spotty calcifications (SC) The purpose of the present study is to investigate the influence of microvascular dysfunction and additional risk factors on plaque morphology and plaque burden in patients with diabetes mellitus.
The aim of this study is to determine the effects of vitamin D or placebo for 3 months on the gene expression of glyoxalase enzyme, RAGE, and YKL40 in the peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) and serum levels of YKL40,AGEs, TNF-α, PAI-1, IL-6, and HbA1c of diabetes type 2 patients.
SGLT2 antagonists and GLP1 agonists are used since a relatively short period as second line therapy if indicated and are well tolerated by patients featuring low risk of hypoglycaemia in comparison to insulin or other oral glucose lowering drug. This new treatment options offer an effective modality to lower blood glucose, if first line therapeutics fail. According to national and international guidelines combination of oral glucose lowering drugs is possible in multiple ways, but is currently not recommended for GLP1 agonists and SGLT2 inhibitors yet, as evidence and supporting studies are missing proving efficacy and safety]. Thus studies under standardized conditions are urgently needed to answer these unsolved questions. First results of a combination of a SGLT2 Inhibitor and a GLP1 agonist demonstrated huge potential regarding glucose and weight reduction and safety issues. However, further studies are necessary to elucidate potential mechanisms of combination therapy with SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP1 agonists and its effect on weight loss, glucose control, effects on incretins and adipokines, as well as further effects on ectopic lipid accumulation in liver and other tissues as myocard or pancreas in humans. As both monotherapies have effects on weight and metabolism, changes in abdominal, subcutaneous, hepatic, myocardial or pancreatic lipid content might be speculated and are focus of interest in this study. Recently GLP1 agonists were shown to have effects on hepatic lipid reduction in humans with diabetes. Hepatic lipid content and steatosis hepatis are widely discussed to have major effects on progression of diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Thus reduction of lipid accumulation in hepatic tissue might have an effect on diabetes progression. Also higher myocardial lipid accumulation is seen in diabetic patients probably partly responsible for higher cardiovascular risk in diabetics. So far results combining these two drug classes show less weight loss as might have been expected using monotherapy, so that further investigation will definitely shed light on combination of therapeutic concepts. Facing a multiple of positive side effects (weight loss, blood pressure lowering, potential protective cardiac effects) using a combination of SGLT2 and GLP1 seems to be a promising therapeutic option in diabetic subjects.
