Association Between Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus and Eating Disorders: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Previous meta-analyses have shown mixed results regarding the association between eating disorders (EDs) and type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). Our paper aimed to analyse different EDs and disordered eating behaviours that may be practiced by patients with T1DM.

Methods

A literature search of PubMed, Scopus and Web of Science was conducted on 17 January 2023, using the key terms "T1DM," "Eating Disorders" and "Bulimia." Only observational controlled studies were included. The Revman software (version 5.4) was used for the analysis.

Results

T1DM was associated with increased risk of ED compared with nondiabetic individuals (RR = 2.47, 95% CI = 1.84-3.32, p-value < 0.00001), especially bulimia nervosa (RR = 2.80, 95% CI = 1.18-6.65, p-value = 0.02) and binge eating (RR = 1.53, 95% CI = 1.18-1.98, p-value = 0.001). Our analysis has shown that increased risk of ED among T1DM persisted regardless of the questionnaire used to diagnose ED; DM-validated questionnaires (RR = 2.80, 95% CI = 1.91-4.12, p-value < 0.00001) and generic questionnaires (RR = 2.03, 95% CI = 1.27-3.23, p-value = 0.003). Prevalence of insulin omission/misuse was 10.3%; diabetic females demonstrated a significantly higher risk of insulin omission and insulin misuse than diabetic males.

Conclusion

Our study establishes a significant and clear connection between EDs and T1DM, particularly bulimia and binge eating, with T1DM. Moreover, female diabetics are at higher risk of insulin misuse/omission. Early proactive screening is essential and tailored; comprehensive interventions combining diabetes and ED components are recommended for this population, with referral to a specialised psychiatrist.

Project description:BackgroundDiabetic retinopathy (DR), a leading cause of vision loss worldwide, is a common complication of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) driven by chronic hyperglycemia and microvascular damage. Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) is crucial in blood sugar regulation and has been linked to DR incidence and severity. While some studies suggest that FGF21 levels may contribute to the DR incidence, others propose a protective role. This discrepancy necessitates further analysis, prompting this study to evaluate the association between FGF21 levels and DR incidence and severity in T2DM patients.MethodsA systematic search was conducted through MEDLINE, Web of Science, Scopus, and Embase up to May 2024 for studies evaluating the association between FGF21 and DR incidence and severity. A random-effect model meta-analysis was performed to calculate the pooled standardized mean difference (SMD) and 95% confidence intervals (CI). A univariate meta-regression was performed to analyze factors influencing pooled size estimates. All statistical analyses were performed using STATA 17 software.ResultThis systematic review and meta-analysis of 5,852 participants revealed that FGF21 was positively correlated with DR (SMD 3.11; 95% CI [0.92-5.30], p = 0.005) and sight-threatening DR (STDR) incidence (SMD 3.61; 95% CI [0.82-6.41], p = 0.01). There was no significant difference in FGF21 levels in DR vs STDR (p = 0.79). Subgroup analysis revealed a significant difference in DR incidence between LDL groups, with higher DR incidence in the group with low-density lipoprotein (LDL) levels >100 (P < 0.00001). Meta-regression revealed no variables significantly influenced the pooled size estimates.ConclusionA higher level of FGF21 was associated with higher DR and STDR incidence among T2DM patients, highlighting its potential utilization as a biomarker for DR detection and enabling the exploration of FGF21-based treatment strategies. However, variables independently predicting DR among patients with elevated FGF21 levels shall be explored further.Prospero idCRD42024559142.

Project description:IntroductionThe association between blood (serum or plasma) selenium concentrations and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) has been evaluated in some studies. However, the reported findings are debatable, and only case-control and cross-sectional studies were included.ObjectiveThis research aimed to assess the association between blood selenium levels and GDM by analyzing existing literature. To provide a reference for the prevention and treatment of GDM, we included prospective studies which are not included in previous studies to collate more high-quality evidence and better test the etiological hypothesis between blood Se concentrations and GDM.MethodsThe PubMed, EMBASE, and Web of Science databases were retrieved for literature up to September 2022, and relevant references were manually searched. Raw data from relevant studies were extracted, and a random effect model was adopted for meta-analysis. The total effects were reported as weighted mean differences. All data were analyzed using Stata 16.0 software.ResultsFourteen studies involving 890 pregnant women with GDM and 1618 healthy pregnant women were incorporated in the meta-analysis. Pregnancies with GDM had significantly lower blood selenium levels than those with normal glucose tolerance (weighted mean difference = -8.11; 95% confidence interval: -12.68 to -3.54, P = 0.001). Subgroup analyses showed that the association between blood selenium levels and GDM was consistent in the residents of Asia and Africa, but not in European. This trend was significant in the second and third trimester subgroups, but not in the first trimester subgroup. Articles published in 2006-2015 also showed this trend, but those published before 2005 and 2016-2019 did not show significant results. This difference was evident in non-prospective studies, but not significant in prospective studies. Studies using the Carpenter and Coustan diagnostic criteria were consistent with this trend, whereas studies using other diagnostic criteria found no differences. In addition, in terms of blood selenium measurement methods, atomic absorption spectrometry showed more significant differences than other methods. In the subgroup analysis based on the sample size of included studies and the quality of the studies, each subgroup showed statistical differences.ConclusionLower blood selenium concentrations are associated with GDM as shown in our study. Therefore, supplementing an appropriate amount of selenium may be helpful for GDM prevention and treatment.
