Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

According to the newest IDF Atlas, 537 million (1 in 10) adults globally are now living with diabetes. Among them, over 90% have type 2 diabetes (T2DM), and this figure is projected to reach 783 million (12.2%) by 2045. T2DM, together with its related cardiometabolic risk profiles, impose a huge burden on cardiovascular diseases, mortality, and health care expenditure. Early identification and stratification for risk and cause of developing diabetes are crucial for better management and prevention of T2DM. The great technology development and integrative analysis advances in genomics, transcriptomics, epigenomics, metabolomics, and proteomics provide huge opportunities for deeper exploration of the etiology, prevention, and management strategies of T2DM. Research is needed to understand the etiology of T2DM, novel biomarkers, risk factors, or metabolic pathways that can predict T2DM, and to find successful methods or strategies to prevent T2DM.

This Special Issue will provide recent advances in clinical and translational research on T2DM. Therefore, researchers in the field of T2DM and related cardiometabolic diseases or consequences are encouraged to submit an original article or review to this Special Issue (case reports and short reviews will not be accepted).

Purpose: The effect of sarcopenia on the survival of patients with type 2 diabetes remains unclear. Therefore, we designed a propensity score-matched population-based cohort study to compare the patients with diabetes with or without sarcopenia. Patients and Methods: We included patients with type 2 diabetes and categorized them into two groups according to whether they had sarcopenia and compared their survival; patients in the groups were matched at a ratio of 1:2. Results: The matching process yielded a final cohort of 201,698 patients (132,805 and 68,893 in the sarcopenia and nonsarcopenia diabetes groups, respectively) who were eligible for further analysis. According to both univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses, the adjusted hazard ratios (aHRs; 95% confidence interval [CI]) of all-cause death for the sarcopenia diabetes group compared with the control group: 1.35 (1.33–1.38; p < 0.001). The aHRs (95% CIs) of all-cause death for those aged 41–50, 51–60, and >60 years (compared with those aged ≤40 years) were 1.53 (1.48–1.60), 2.61 (2.52–2.72), and 6.21 (5.99–6.45), respectively. The aHR (95% CI) of all-cause death for the male patients compared with the female patients was 1.56 (1.54–1.60). The aHRs (95% CIs) of all-cause death for those with adapted Diabetes Complications Severity Index (aDCSI) scores of 1, 2, 3, 4, and ≥5 (compared with an aDCSI score of 0) were 1.01 (1.00–1.14), 1.38 (1.35–1.42), 1.58 (1.54–1.63), and 2.23 (2.14–2.33), respectively. Conclusion: Patients with type 2 diabetes and sarcopenia had higher mortality than did those without sarcopenia. Full article

Nonetheless, evidence of cardiovascular (CV) prognosis is relatively scarce in young T2D patients. Purpose: To estimate the risk of all-cause death, CV death, and non-fatal [...] Read more.
Introduction: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) increases the risk of heart failure (HF) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Nonetheless, evidence of cardiovascular (CV) prognosis is relatively scarce in young T2D patients. Purpose: To estimate the risk of all-cause death, CV death, and non-fatal major CV events (MACEs) in T2D patients younger than 65 years old. Methods: We designed a retrospective cohort study using incident cases of either T2D, HF, or CKD in the population aged 40–65 years, from 1st January 2000 to 31st December 2019. Each individual was followed for up to one year. The primary analysis consisted of survival analysis with Cox proportional hazards to compare one-year risk of all-cause death, CV death, and MACEs between T2D without HF or CKD (T2D), T2D with HF (T2D-HF), and T2D with CKD (T2D-CKD) groups. Results: A total of 14,986 incident adult diabetic patients from the last two decades in our institution were included with an average age at cohort inclusion of 55–58 years old. Glycemic control was similar among groups. The adjusted hazard ratio (HR) of one-year all-cause death was 2.77 (95% CI: 2.26–3.40) for T2D-HF and 3.09 (2.77–3.45) for T2D-CKD compared with the baseline T2D risk. The highest event rate (T2D-CKD) was 0.15 per person-year. The adjusted HR of one-year CV death was 2.75 (95% CI: 2.19–3.46) for T2D-CKD and 2.59 (1.72–3.91) for T2D-HF. The non-fatal MACE risk was significantly increased in T2D-HF or T2D-CKD compared with T2D (2.82 (CI95%: 2.34–3.41) for T2D-CKD vs. 1.90 (CI95%: 1.66–2.17) for T2D-CKD) with a 32% event rate in non-fatal MACEs. Conclusions: Coexistence of HF or CKD is associated with increased premature mortality as well as non-fatal CV events in T2D patients under 65 years old. Full article
