Serum Adiponectin Levels Are Positively Associated With Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy in Chinese Patients With Type 2 Diabetes.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To investigate the association between serum adiponectin levels and diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) in Chinese type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients.

Design and methods

Two hundred nineteen T2D patients aged 40-79 years were divided into two groups according to whether they had DPN. The systemic levels of five biomarkers were measured using a human adipokine multiplexed bead-based immunoassay. Diabetic peripheral neuropathy diagnostic criteria included both common DPN symptoms and neurological screening tests.

Results

Most features of DPN (n=98) and non-DPN patients (n=121) are similar, but the DPN patients were slightly older, had longer diabetes duration, higher hemoglobin (Hb) A1c, lower estimated glomerular filtration rates (eGFR), less exercise, and used lipid-lowering drugs more often. Serum adiponectin levels of DPN patients were higher than that of non-DPN patients (8.13 vs. 9.63 mg/ml, P = 0.004). Serum adiponectin levels were positively associated with DPN after adjusting for age, gender, body mass index, hypertension, HbA1c, alcohol intake, smoking status, physical activity, log-transformed low density lipoprotein cholesterol, lipid-lowering drug usage, eGFR, and diabetes duration {odds ratio (OR) 1.72 [95% confidence interval (CI) 1.02-2.89], P = 0.041}. The OR refers to a doubling in biomarkers.

Conclusions

Serum adiponectin levels were higher in DPN patients compared to non?DPN patients in this Chinese T2D population. Serum adiponectin levels were positively associated with DPN presence, independent of multiple confounders.

Project description:BackgroundIncreased serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) levels are reported to be associated with various metabolic and inflammatory diseases. This study assessed whether high-normal serum CEA is related to diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D).MethodsAll subjects received DPN assessment based on neuropathic symptoms, neuropathic signs, and nerve conduction studies to calculate composite Z scores of nerve latency, amplitude and conduction velocity (NCV). DPN was confirmed by both at least a presentation of neuropathic symptoms/signs and an abnormal nerve conduction index. Serum CEA levels and other clinical indices were also synchronously detected. Multivariable linear regression analyses were used to determine the independent effects of serum CEA levels on nerve conduction indices, multivariable logistic regression analyses were used to determine the independent impact of CEA levels on the risk of DPN, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to assess the diagnostic capability of CEA levels to discriminate DPN.ResultsWe ultimately recruited 402 eligible subjects with normal ranges of serum CEA for this study, and 25.4% (n = 102) were determined to have DPN. After adjusting for other clinical covariates, serum CEA levels were independently associated with the composite Z score for latency (β = 0.132, t = 2.330, p = 0.021), amplitude (β = - 0.164, t = - 2.838, p = 0.005) and NCV (β = - 0.210, t = - 3.662, p < 0.001). Moreover, the prevalence of DPN in the first, second, third and fourth quartiles of CEA level was 12.9%, 19.0%, 29.4% and 40.4%, respectively (p for trend < 0.001); the corresponding adjusted odds ratios and 95% CIs for DPN in CEA quartiles were 1, 1.47 (0.45-4.82), 1.72 (0.54-5.53) and 4.58 (1.39-15.06), respectively. Furthermore, the optimal cut-off value of high-normal serum CEA to discriminate DPN was ≥ 2.66 ng/mL, with a Youden index of 0.28, sensitivity of 66.67% and specificity of 61.00%.ConclusionsIncreased serum CEA levels within the normal range are closely linked to dysfunction of peripheral nerve conduction and the risk of DPN, and high-normal serum CEA levels are a potential risk factor for DPN in T2D.

Project description:BackgroundTo compare neurocognitive functioning of Type 1 diabetic mellitus (T1DM) and healthy adults, and explore risk factors of cognitive dysfunction of T1DM patients, especially the association between cognitive impairment and diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN).MethodsSeventy T1DM (age: 32.17 ± 9.57 yr., duration: 8.99 ± 7.02 yr) patients and 48 healthy volunteers were included. All subjects received evaluation of MMSE and MoCA scales. Cognitive function of T1DM patients was evaluated in different cognitive domains. Risk factors affecting cognitive function were further explored.ResultsThree patients with educational level ≤ 6-year were excluded from final analysis. Scores of both MMSE (28.4 ± 1.7 vs. 29.1 ± 1.0, P = 0.005) and MoCA scales (25.9 ± 2.7 vs.27.1 ± 2.4, P = 0.017) in T1DM group were lower than that in control group. For MMSE scale, scores of orientation (9.60 ± 0.79 vs.9.87 ± 0.39, P < 0.001) and language function (8.56 ± 0.65 vs.8.83 ± 0.38, P < 0.001) in T1DM groups were lower than that in control group. For MoCA scale, scores of attention and concentration (2.30 ± 0.74 vs.2.57 ± 0.58, P < 0.001), visuospatial/executive function (4.32 ± 0.91 vs.4.64 ± 0.63, P < 0.001), memory (2.96 ± 1.50 vs.3.66 ± 1.28, P < 0.001), language function (5.71 ± 0.69 vs.5.87 ± 0.39, P = 0.007), and abstraction (1.55 ± 0.68 vs.1.82 ± 0.42, P < 0.001) were lower in T1DM group than that in control group. Logistic regression showed age, fasting C peptide, educational level and nerve conduction velocity (NCV) were associated with cognitive dysfunction diagnosed by MoCA scores for the patients with type 1 diabetes.ConclusionsT1DM adults had mild to moderate cognitive impairment, mainly presenting as dysfunctions of attention and concentration, visuospatial/executive, language, and abstraction. In addition to age, fasting C peptide level, and educational level, DPN, as a diabetic complication, was identified to be associated with cognitive impairments.

Project description:Aims/introductionNon-alcoholic fatty liver disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus are closely related, and often occur simultaneously in patients. Type 2 diabetes increases the risk of diabetic peripheral neuropathy, resulting in intolerable pain and extremity amputation that reduces the quality of life. However, the role of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in the pathogenesis of diabetic peripheral neuropathy remains unclear. Thus, we evaluated the correlation of liver fibrosis and steatosis, which are representative histological morphologies of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, with diabetic peripheral neuropathy in type 2 diabetes patients.Materials and methodsFive hundred twenty individuals with type 2 diabetes were recruited. All the patients were detected nerve conduction study for diabetic peripheral neuropathy and fibro touch for liver steatosis and fibrosis. Correlation of DPN with liver steatosis and fibrosis were analysed with binary logistic analysis.ResultsAmong the 520 patients, the prevalence of liver steatosis, fibrosis and diabetic peripheral neuropathy was 63.0% (n = 328), 18.1% (n = 94) and 52.1% (n = 271), respectively. The prevalence of diabetic peripheral neuropathy was significantly elevated in patients with liver steatosis (55.7 vs 44.9%, P = 0.03) and fibrosis (61.5 vs 50%, P = 0.04), and it increased as liver stiffness measurement increased. Additionally, both hepatic steatosis (odds ratio 1.48, 95% confidence interval 1.04-2.11, P = 0.03) and fibrosis (odds ratio 1.60, 95% confidence interval 1.02-2.51, P = 0.04) were correlated with diabetic peripheral neuropathy. After adjusting for age, sex, weight, height, body mass index, waist hip ratio, duration of type 2 diabetes, blood glucose, homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance, blood pressure, serum lipid, liver enzyme, urea, uric acid, creatinine and inflammatory factors, liver fibrosis remained associated with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (odds ratio 2.24, 95% confidence interval 1.11-4.53, P = 0.02).ConclusionsThe prevalence of diabetic peripheral neuropathy was elevated in patients with liver steatosis and fibrosis. Liver fibrosis was also independently associated with an increased risk of diabetic peripheral neuropathy.
