Meta-Analysis
BACKGROUND
Once-weekly insulin is expected to improve treatment compliance and durability and lead to better glycemic control. Several clinical trials on once-weekly insulin have recently been published. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to investigate the efficacy and safety of once-weekly insulin versus once-daily insulin in type 2 diabetes (T2D).
METHODS
The following databases were searched for studies: PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane library (From January 1, 1946 to May 9, 2023). All randomized trials comparing weekly versus daily insulin in T2D were eligible for inclusion. Data analysis was performed using STATA 17.0 software (Stata Corporation, College Station, TX). The main outcomes and indexes included reduction in Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), fasting plasma glucose and bodyweight, proportion of patients achieving HbA1c < 7%, time-in-range 70 to 180 mg/dL and adverse events.
RESULTS
This systematic review and meta-analysis included 7 randomized controlled studies involving 2391 patients (1347 receiving 1-week insulin and 1044 receiving 1-day insulin). Once-weekly insulin was not inferior to once-daily insulin in HbA1c change [estimated treatment difference (ETD) = -0.05; 95% confidence intervals (CI): -0.14 to 0.04), HbA1c < 7% (odds ratio = 1.14; 95% CI: 0.87-1.50), fasting plasma glucose (ETD = 0.09; 95% CI: -0.19 to 0.36) and body weight loss (ETD = 0.27; 95% CI: -0.36 to 0.91). In terms of time-in-range 70 to 180 mg/dL, weekly insulin was superior to daily insulin (MTD = 3.84; 95% CI: 1.55-6.08). Icodec was associated with higher incidence of all adverse events (odds ratio = 1.20; 95% CI: 1.03-1.48; P = .024), but did not result in high risk of serious and severe adverse events. Moreover, icodec and Basal Insulin Fc did not result in higher incidence of hypoglycemia compared with insulin daily.
CONCLUSION
Our meta-analysis found that insulin weekly was well tolerated and effective for glycemic control. Once-weekly insulin was not inferior to once-daily insulin in both efficacy and safety in T2D.

Meta-Analysis
BACKGROUND
Insulin-like growth factor binding protein-1 (IGFBP-1) is considered a decline in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), but it remains controversial that whether such reduction is attributed to obesity.
AIMS
This systematic review aims to explore whether IGFBP-1 is reduced in PCOS, and whether such reduction is associated with obesity.
RESULTS
Our pooled study included 12 studies with a total of 450 participants. IGFBP-1 levels in PCOS were significantly lower than that in non-PCOS (SMD (95%CI)=-0.49(-0.89, -0.09), =0.02). No significant difference in IGFBP-1 levels between patients with or without PCOS classified by BMI. Whilst, stratification by PCOS status revealed a significant decrease in IGFBP-1 in overweight (SMD (95%CI)=-0.92(-1.46, -0.37), P=0.001). When comparing fasting insulin in the same way, PCOS patients had significantly elevated fasting insulin level but not statistically declined IGFBP-1 after classified by BMI.
CONCLUSION
This meta-analysis provides evidence that the decrease of IGFBP-1 in PCOS was more strongly influenced by comorbid obesity than by PCOS itself. Additionally, contrast to previous findings that insulin significantly suppresses IGFBP-1, our results suggested that the suppression of PCOS-related hyperinsulinemia on IGFBP-1 seemed diminished. Overall, our work may provide a novel perspective on the mechanism between insulin and IGFBP-1 underlying PCOS development.

Review
AIM
This systematic review aims to provide evidence on effectiveness of interventions used in emergency care of hypoglycaemia and diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA).
METHODOLOGY
This is a systematic review of randomized controlled trials and analytical studies. We selected studies based on eligibility criteria. The databases Medline, Cochrane library and Embase were searched from their inception till November 2, 2022, using search strategy. We used the term such as "diabetes mellitus", "treatment", "hypoglycaemia", "diabetic ketoacidosis", "low blood sugar", "high blood sugar" and Mesh terms like "disease management", "hypoglycaemia", "diabetic ketoacidosis", and "diabetes mellitus" to form search strategy.
RESULTS
Hypoglycemia: Both 10 % dextrose (D10) and 50 % dextrose (D50) are effective options with similar hospital mortality D10 (4.7 %) and D50 (6.2 %). DKA: Low dose insulin is non-inferior to standard dose with time till resolution of DKA 16.5 (7.2) hours and 17.2 (7.7) hours (p value = 0.73) respectively. In children, subcutaneous insulin was associated with reduced ICU admissions and hospital readmissions (67.8 % to 27.9 %). Plasmalyte (PL) is noninferior to sodium chloride (SC), with ICU length of stay 49 h (IQR 23-72) and 55 h (IQR 41-80) respectively, hyperchloremia was associated with longer in-hospital length of stay and longer time to resolution of DKA. And potassium replacement at < 10 mmol/L was associated with higher mortality (n = 72).
CONCLUSION
We conclude either of the 10 % or 50 % dextrose is effective for management of hypoglycaemia. For DKA subcutaneous insulin and intravenous insulin, chloride levels ≤ 109 mEq/L, potassium above 10 mmol/l, IV fluids like Plasmalyte and normal saline are effective.

Meta-Analysis
OBJECTIVES
Whether the glucose-insulin-potassium (GIK) should be used as an adjuvant therapy for ischaemic myocardial disease remains controversial nowadays reperfusion era. This meta-analysis aimed to assess the effects of preinitiated GIK for patients undergoing planned percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
DESIGN
Systematic review and meta-analysis.
DATA SOURCES
PubMed, Web of science, MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane Library and ClinicalTrials.gov were searched through 27 November 2022.
ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA
Only randomised controlled trials involving participants preinitiated with GIK or placebo before planned PCI were included.
DATA EXTRACTION AND SYNTHESIS
Two independent reviewers used standardised methods to search, screen and code included trials. Risk of bias was assessed with the Cochrane tool. Pooled analysis was conducted using random or effects models according to the heterogeneity. Subgroup analyses were carried out for dosage of GIK and if with ongoing myocardial ischaemia.
RESULTS
13 randomised controlled trials (RCTs) including 3754 participants were evaluated. We found patients preconditioned with GIK before PCI showed a significant increase in Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction 3 flow events after angioplasty (OR 1.59, 95% CI 1.03 to 2.46, p=0.04), also revealed improved in-hospital left ventricular ejection fraction (weighed mean difference, WMD 1.62, 95% CI 0.21 to 3.03, p=0.02) and myocardial salvage index (WMD 0.09, 95% CI 0.01 to 0.16, p=0.03). Nevertheless, no benefit was observed in all-cause mortality neither on 30-day (OR 0.81, 95% CI 0.59 to 1.11, p=0.18) nor 6 months (OR 1.02, 95% CI 0.42 to 2.46, p=0.97). Furthermore, GIK intervention was associated with higher occurrences of complications such as phlebitis (OR 10.13, 95% CI 1.74 to 59.00, p=0.01) and hypoglycaemia (OR 10.43, 95% CI 1.32 to 82.29, p=0.03), but not hyperkalaemia (OR 9.36, 95% CI 0.50 to 175.27, p=0.13), liquid overload (OR 1.02, 95% CI 0.25 to 4.13, p=0.98) or in-hospital heart failure (OR 0.42, 95% CI 0.06 to 2.96, p=0.39).
CONCLUSIONS
Our study shows preconditioning GIK exhibits myocardial reperfusion and cardiac function benefits for patients planning to receive PCI intervention, while also some complications such as phlebitis and hypoglycaemia accompany.

INTRODUCTION
The use of metformin for treating gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) remains controversial because it can pass through the placenta. This meta-analysis aimed to compare the effects of metformin and insulin on maternal and neonatal outcomes in patients with GDM.
METHODS
We conducted a comprehensive search of the PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases, focusing on randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that evaluated the impacts of metformin and insulin on both maternal and neonatal outcomes in patients with GDM.
RESULTS
Twenty-four RCTs involving 4934 patients with GDM were included in this meta-analysis. Compared with insulin, metformin demonstrated a significant reduction in the risks of preeclampsia (RR 0.61, 95% CI 0.48 to 0.78, < .0001), induction of labor (RR 0.90, 95% CI 0.82 to 0.98, = .02), cesarean delivery (RR 0.91, 95% CI 0.85 to 0.98, = .01), macrosomia (RR 0.67, 95% CI 0.53 to 0.83, = .0004), neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) admission (RR 0.75, 95% CI 0.66 to 0.86, < .0001), neonatal hypoglycemia (RR 0.55, 95% CI 0.48 to 0.63, < .00001), and large for gestational age (LGA) (RR 0.80, 95% CI 0.68 to 0.94, = .007). Conversely, metformin showed no significant impact on gestational hypertension (RR 0.84, 95% CI 0.67 to 1.06, = .15), spontaneous vaginal delivery (RR 1.13, 95% CI 1.00 to 1.08, = .05), emergency cesarean section (RR 0.94, 95% CI 0.77 to 1.16, = .58), shoulder dystocia (RR 0.65, 95% CI 0.31 to 1.39, = .27), premature birth (RR 0. 92, 95% CI 0.61 to 1.39, = .69), polyhydramnios (RR 1.11, 95% CI 0.54 to 2.30, = .77), birth trauma (RR 0.87, 95% CI 0.54 to 1.39, = .56), 5-min Apgar score < 7 (RR 1.13, 95% CI 0.76 to 1.68, = .55), small for gestational age (SGA) (RR 0.93, 95% CI 0.71 to 1.22, = .62), respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) (RR 0.74, 95% CI 0.50 to 1.08, = .11), jaundice (RR 1.09, 95% CI 0.95 to 1.25, = .24) or birth defects (RR 0.80, 95% CI 0.37 to 1.74, = .57).
CONCLUSIONS
The findings suggest that metformin can reduce the risk of certain maternal and neonatal outcomes compared with insulin therapy for GDM. However, long-term follow-up studies of patients with GDM taking metformin and their offspring are warranted to provide further evidence.

Diabetes & Vascular Disease Research 2023To compare the cardiovascular and renal outcomes of GLP-1 RA versus DPP4i and basal insulin in the management of T2DM. (Meta-Analysis)
Meta-Analysis Review
OBJECTIVE
To compare the cardiovascular and renal outcomes of GLP-1 RA versus DPP4i and basal insulin in the management of T2DM.
METHODS
Data from 22 studies involving over 200,000 participants were pooled using the inverse variance method and random-effects meta-analysis. The review was reported in accordance with PRISMA.
RESULTS
Compared with DPP4i, treatment with GLP-1 RA was associated with a greater benefit on composite cardiovascular outcomes (HR:0.77, 95% CI:0.69-0.87), myocardial infarction (HR:0.82, 95% CI:0.69-0.97), stroke (HR:0.83, 95% CI: 0.74-0.93), cardiovascular mortality (HR:0.76, 95% CI:0.68-0.85) and all-cause mortality (HR:0.65, 95% CI:0.48-0.90). There was no difference in effect on heart failure (HR:0.97, 95% CI:0.82-1.15). Compared with basal insulin, GLP-1 RA was associated with better effects on composite cardiovascular outcomes (HR:0.62, 95% CI:0.48-0.79), heart failure (HR:0.57, 95% CI:0.35-0.92), myocardial infarction (HR:0.70, 95% CI:0.58-0.85), stroke (HR:0.50, 95% CI:0.40-0.63) and all-cause mortality (HR:0.31, 95% CI:0.20-0.48). Evidence from a small number of studies suggests that GLP-1 RA had better effects on composite and individual renal outcomes, such as eGFR, compared with either DPP4i and basal insulin.
CONCLUSION
Available evidence suggests that treating T2DM with GLP-1 RA can yield better benefits on composite and specific cardiorenal outcomes than with DPP4i and basal insulin.

OBJECTIVE
Checkpoint inhibitors (CPIs) can trigger complications related to the autoimmune process such as CPI-triggered diabetes mellitus. The typical treatment for CPI-triggered diabetes is insulin, but a detailed therapeutic method has not yet been established. To prevent severe symptoms and mortality of diabetic ketoacidosis in advanced-stage cancer patients, the establishment of effective treatment of CPI-triggered diabetes, other than insulin therapy, is required.
METHODS
We present a case of a 76-year-old man with CPI-triggered diabetes who was treated with nivolumab and ipilimumab for lung cancer. We also conducted a systematic review of 48 case reports of type 1 diabetes associated with nivolumab and ipilimumab therapy before June 2023.
RESULTS
The patient's hyperglycemia was not sufficiently controlled by insulin therapy, and after the remission of ketoacidosis, the addition of a sodium-glucose transporter (SGLT) 2 inhibitor, dapagliflozin, improved glycemic control. Most of the reported nivolumab/ipilimumab-induced type 1 diabetes was treatable with insulin, but very few cases required additional oral anti-diabetic agents to obtain good glucose control.
CONCLUSION
Although SGLT2 inhibitors have been reported to have adverse effects on ketoacidosis, recent studies indicate that the occurrence of ketoacidosis is relatively rare. Considering the pathological mechanism of CPI-triggered diabetes, SGLT2 inhibitors could be an effective choice if they are administered while carefully monitoring the patient's ketoacidosis.

OBJECTIVE
Maturity-onset diabetes of the young type 13 (MODY13), a rare type of monogenic diabetes, is often misdiagnosed as type 1 or type 2 diabetes. To improve early diagnosis and precise treatment, we performed a systematic review and analysis of the literature about MODY13.
METHODS
PubMed, Cochrane, Embase, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Chinese BioMedical (CBM) Literature Database, and Wanfang Database were searched using the following search terms: "MODY13," "KCNJ11 maturity-onset diabetes of the young," "KCNJ11-MODY," "maturity-onset diabetes of the young type 13," and "neonatal diabetes mellitus KCNJ11." The demography, clinical characteristics, and gene mutations of patients were expressed with descriptive statistical methods.
RESULTS
A total of 33 reports were included in this study, including 75 patients and 28 types of mutations. Thirty-six patients were male. The mean onset age was 25.20 ± 15.26 years. The averages of recorded body mass index, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), and fasting C-peptide were 23.45 ± 4.56kg/m , 10.07 ± 1.96%, and 0.31 ± 0.23nmol/L, respectively. Most of the mutation sites were located in the cytosolic region of N- and C-terminal domains of Kir6.2. Seven patients were reported to have diabetic chronic complications.
CONCLUSION
MODY13 was diagnosed later than other types of MODY and was associated with low fasting C-peptide. Mutation sites of MODY13 were mostly concentrated in N- and C-terminal intracellular domains. The majority of KCNJ11 gene mutations causing MODY 13 were from G to A. The incidence rates of chronic complications were lower than type 1 and type 2 diabetes.

Meta-Analysis Review
BACKGROUND
As new antidiabetic drugs, tirzepatide (Tir) and semaglutide (Sem) are progressively applied in clinical practice. However, their efficacy and safety profiles have not been comprehensively assessed. Therefore, a Bayesian network meta-analysis was used to evaluate and compare the efficacy and safety of Tir and Sem in treating type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
METHODS
PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, Cochrane Library and ClinicalTrials.gov were systematically searched from inception to April 3rd, 2023. Randomized clinical trials (RCTs) comparing the efficacy and safety of Tir and Sem with placebo or the other antidiabetic drugs in treating T2DM were included. The efficacy outcomes included changes in glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), body weight (BW), body mass index (BMI), and the proportion of participants with HbA1c< 7 %. The safety outcome was the proportion of participants experiencing gastrointestinal adverse events (GIAEs).
RESULTS
A total of 38 studies involving 34,166 participants were included. Compared to 1 mg of subcutaneous Sem (Sem SC), 5 mg, 10 mg and 15 mg of Tir demonstrated superior efficacy in reducing HbA1c (mean difference (MD), [95 % CI], -0.22 [-0.40, -0.03] %, -0.42 [-0.60, -0.24] % and -0.53 [-0.71, -0.35] %, respectively) and BW (MD [95 % CI], -1.48 [-2.53, -0.43] kg, -4.00 [-5.05, -2.95] kg and -5.71 [-6.73, -4.68] kg, respectively). Conversely, 7 mg and 14 mg of oral Sem (Sem PO) displayed inferior efficacy in reducing HbA1c (MD [95 % CI], 0.47 [0.26, 0.68] % and 0.35 [0.16, 0.54] %, respectively) and BW (MD [95 % CI], 2.36 [1.24, 3.48] kg and 1.11 [0.10, 2.13] kg). However, 20 mg and 40 mg of Sem PO were non-inferior in reducing HbA1c (MD [95 % CI], 0.13 [-0.29, 0.55] % and 0.01 [-0.38, 0.40] %, respectively) and BW (MD [95 % CI], -0.41 [-2.71, 1.90] kg and -1.32 [-3.58, 0.92] kg). In terms of safety, compared to 1 mg of Sem SC, 5 mg, 10 mg and 15 mg of Tir did not significantly increase the incidence of GIAEs (odd ratio (OR) [95 % CI], 0.70 [0.42, 1.10], 0.87 [0.52, 1.36] and 0.99 [0.60, 1.54], respectively), while 7 mg of Sem PO showed a lower incidence of GIAEs (OR [95 % CI], 0.48 [0.25, 0.83]). Compared to insulin, 0.5 mg of Sem SC, 1 mg of Sem SC, 5 mg of Tir, 10 mg of Tir and 15 mg of Tir displayed better efficacy in lowering HbA1c (MD [95 % CI], -0.40 [-0.63, -0.18] %, -0.69 [-0.90, -0.48] %, -0.91 [-1.10, -0.72] %, -1.11 [-1.30, -0.92] % and -1.22 [-1.41, -1.03] %, respectively) and BW (MD [95 % CI], -5.34[-6.60, -4.09] kg, -6.70 [-7.90,-5.51] kg, -8.18 [-9.27, -7.10] kg, -10.70 [-11.79, -9.61] kg and -12.41 [-13.49,-11.33] kg, respectively). According to the surface under the cumulative ranking curve (SUCRA) value, among all the included interventions, 15 mg of Tir exhibited the most potent effect in reducing HbA1c (99.81 %) and BW (99.98 %), followed by 10 mg of Tir (96.83 % and 95.72 %), 5 mg of Tir (92.88 % and 86.04 %), 1 mg of Sem SC (85.85 % and 74.97 %), 40 mg of Sem PO (83.66 % and 84.31 %), 20 mg of Sem PO (76.98 % and 77.12 %), 300 mg of Can (49.93 % and 60.89 %), insulin (36.38 % and 0.22 %) and 100 mg of Sit (12.28 % and 18.51 %) respectively. Meanwhile, 5 mg, 10 mg, and 15 mg of Tir (48.32 %, 30.96 %, and 21.07 %, respectively), 0.5 mg and 1 mg of Sem SC (33.54 % and 24.77 %, respectively) significantly increased the incidence of GIAEs.
CONCLUSION
Both Tir and Sem demonstrated favorable antidiabetic effects and were particularly suitable for T2DM patients who were obese or overweight. Despite a high incidence of GIAEs, their safety profile was deemed acceptable. Tir was the best option among all the included interventions.

Meta-Analysis Review
BACKGROUND
A daily habit of yogic practice or walking, along with an oral hypoglycemic agent (OHA) could be beneficial for better control of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to find out the efficiency of yoga or walking on glycemic control in T2DM.
METHODOLOGY
The present systematic review and meta-analysis were completed according to the PRISMA guidelines. The risk of bias in included studies was evaluated, by using the revised Cochrane risk-of-bias tool for randomized trials. Meta-analysis was implemented using RevMan software. Forest plots were used to illustrate the study findings and meta-analysis results.
RESULTS
Sixteen studies were included in this systematic review, where 1820 participants were allocated to one of the following interventions: yoga, walking, and without any regular exercise (control group). Participants were between 17-75 years of age. Compared to the control group, the yoga group had a significant reduction in fasting blood glucose (FBG) by 31.98 mg/dL (95% CI = -47.93 to -16.03), postprandial blood glucose (PPBG) by 25.59 mg/dL (95% CI = -44.00 to -7.18], glycosylated hemoglobin (HbAlc) by 0.73% (95% CI = -1.24 to -0.22), fasting insulin by 7.19 μIU/mL (95% CI = -12.10 to -2.28), and homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) by 3.87 (95% CI = -8.40 to -0.66). Compared to the control group, the walking group had a significant reduction in FBG by 12.37 mg/dL (95% CI = -20.06 to -4.68) and HbA1c by 0.35% (95% CI = -0.70 to -0.01). Compared to the walking group, the yoga group had a significant reduction in FBG by 12.07 mg/dL (95% CI = -24.34 to - 0.20), HbA1c by 0.20% (95% CI = -0.37 to -0.04), fasting insulin by 10.06 μIU/mL (95% CI = -23.84 to 3.71) and HOMA-IR by 5.97 (95% CI = -16.92 to 4.99).
CONCLUSIONS
Yoga or walking with OHA has positive effects on glycemic control. For the management of T2DM, yoga has relatively more significant effects on glycemic control than walking.Review registration number: PROSPERO registration number CRD42022310213.
