This brief review is aimed to point out the importance of considering glycated hemoglobin, fasting blood glucose, post-glucose-load glycemia, and postprandial glycemia into an evolutive and dynamic criteria that may grant a better concept and understanding of the diagnostic and therapeutic status of individual patients with type-2 diabetes mellitus.

OBJECTIVE To compare the occurrence of hypoglycemia during hemodialysis in chronic kidney disease diabetic patients who present different levels of pre-dialysis glycemia both when using dialysis solutions with and without glucose. SUBJECTS AND METHODS Twenty type 2 diabetic patients in maintenance hemodialysis were submitted to three dialysis sessions (at a 7-day interval each) with dialysis ...

OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of dietary supplementation with Agaricus sylvaticus medicinal fungus in fasting glycemia of post-surgery patients with colorectal cancer. SCOPE Proctology Ambulatory of Federal District Base Hospital-Brazil. SUBJECTS Fifty-six colorectal cancer patients in postsurgery phase, stadiums phase I, II and II, which followed specifi...

Glycemic allostasis is the process by which blood glucose stabilization is achieved through the balancing of glucose consumption rate and release into the blood stream under a variety of stressors.This paper reviews findings on the dynamics of glycemic levels during mental activities on fasting in non‐alcohol users and alcohol users with different periods of abstinence. Referred articles for th...

Exenatide is a long-acting glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) mimetic used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes. There is increasing evidence that GLP-1 can influence glycemia not only via pancreatic (insulinotropic and glucagon suppression) and gastric-emptying effects, but also via an independent mechanism mediated by portal vein receptors. The aim of our study was to investigate whether exenatid...

Significant racial/ethnic disparities in healthcare and diabetes technology use have been observed Type 2 mellitus (T2DM), which are associated with nonengagement self-management out-of-range glycemia. This study aimed to assess whether there were differences the blood glucose levels achieved by several groups using same digital tool. Study objectives determine engagement tool differ among ethn...

Comorbid chronic conditions are common among people with type 2 diabetes. We developed an artificial intelligence algorithm, based on reinforcement learning (RL), for personalized diabetes and multimorbidity management, strong potential to improve health outcomes relative current clinical practice. modeled glycemia, blood pressure, cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk as outcomes, using a retrospe...

The effect of the oral administration of blood glucose precursors on glycemia recovery and liver glucose production in fasted mice subjected to insulin-induced hypoglycemia (IIH) was investigated. IIH was obtained with increasing doses (from 0.5 to 2.0 U·kg(-1)) of intraperitoneal regular insulin where glycemia was evaluated from 0 to 300 min after insulin injection. The dose of 1.0 U·kg(-1) sh...

OBJECTIVE Previous studies have shown that in type 1 diabetes endothelial dysfunction persists even when glycemia is normalized. Moreover, oxidative stress has recently been demonstrated to be the mediator of hyperglycemia-induced endothelial dysfunction. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Thirty-six type 1 diabetic patients and 12 control subjects were enrolled. The diabetic patients were divided i...
