ConclusionOur study has shown significant low levels of serum omentin-1 in obese type 2 diabetic females in comparison to healthy subjects. Omentin-1 inversely related to obesity, insulin resistance and SBP. No significant associations with glycemic control and fasting lipids. Serum omentin-1 can be used as a biomarker for obesity related metabolic disorders. (Source: Journal of Clinical and Translational Endocrinology)

Bimodal glucose distribution in Asian Indian pregnant women: Relevance in gestational diabetes mellitus diagnosis
ConclusionBPG is noted for both FPG and 2-hPG in Asian Indian pregnant women. The cutpoints of normal distribution curves are close to threshold values for FPG and 2-h PG proposed in NICE (National Institute for health and Care Excellence) and IADPSG (International Association of Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Group) GDM diagnostic criteria respectively. Further research on BPG in pregnant women of racial groups with high GDM prevalence, is likely to be of value in GDM diagnosis. (Source: Journal of Clinical and Translational Endocrinology)

Crohn’s disease patient serum changes protein expression in a human mesenchymal stem cell model in a linear relationship to patients’ disease stage and to bone mineral density
ConclusionOur explorative results confirm our hypothesis that factors in serum from patients with CD change the protein expression pattern of human immortalized osteoblast like cells. We suggest, that these short time changes indeed influence factors of bone metabolism. (Source: Journal of Clinical and Translational Endocrinology)

Incidence of hypocalcemia and hypercalcemia in hospitalized patients: is it changing?
Publication date: Available online 29 May 2018 Source:Journal of Clinical & Translational Endocrinology Author(s): A. Catalano, D. Chilà, F. Bellone, G. Nicocia, G. Martino, I. Loddo, N. Morabito, S. Benvenga, S. Loddo Disorders of calcium metabolism are frequently encountered in routine clinical practice. However limited data are available on the epidemiology of hypocalcemia and hypercalcemia in hospitalized patients. Our aim was to evaluate the frequency of hypocalcemia and hypercalcemia in hospitalized patients. This is a retrospective study based on the laboratory results of all hospitalized subject...

Influence of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor- γ exon 2 and exon 6 and insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-1 Gly972Arg polymorphisms on insulin resistance and beta-cell function in Southern Mediterranean women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
Conclusions Our data support the protective influence of PPAR-γ-exon 2 and exon 6 variants on IR and beta cell function, whereas IRS-1 polymorphism is associated with an unfavorable metabolic profile. However, these associations do not fully explain the high metabolic risk associated with PCOS. (Source: Journal of Clinical and Translational Endocrinology)

Patient-Factors Associated with Metformin Steady-State Levels in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus with Therapeutic Dosage
Conclusions Along with initial hyperglycemia and eGFR, metformin Cssmin became the only parameter that influenced FBG level (P < 0.05). Duration of previous metformin use should be considered in the strategy of optimizing metformin dosage. The type-2 diabetes patients with obesity are more suggested to take shorter interval of metformin administration (or possibly with sustained-release formulation) to keep Cssmin within the therapeutic range.

The genetic determinants of circulating C3-epimers of 25-hydroxyvitamin D
Conclusion To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to demonstrate genetic models concerning the variation in C3-epimer levels. Our results emphasize that genetic determinants and the potential factors of C3-epimers differ from non-C3-epimers. This study contributes fundamental knowledge of the endogenous vitamin D pathway.

Prevalence of hypovitaminosis D, and its association with hypoadiponectinemia and hyperfollistatinemia, in Saudi women with na ïve polycystic ovary syndrome
Conclusion Hypovitaminosis D, coexisted and correlated with hypoadiponectinemia and hyperfollistatinemia, is being an alarming risk factor in Saudi women with PCOS. Further investigational and explanatory studies in large size samples are warranted to realize these findings and to improve both diagnostic and treatment tools in Saudi women with PCOS.

Reduction of glycemic variability with Degludec insulin in patients with unstable diabetes
Conclusions The results suggest that treatment with IDeg reduces GV, A1c levels and the incidence of global and nocturnal hypoglycemia events in patients with HGV, but not in patients with low GV. (Source: Journal of Clinical and Translational Endocrinology)

Impact of vitamin d treatment on 25 hydroxy vitamin d levels and insulin homeostasis in obese african american adolescents in a randomized trial
Conclusion While serum 25(OH)D levels in obese AA teens increased adequately with vitamin treatment for 12 weeks and correlated with fasting insulin, it did not significantly impact insulin secretion or sensitivity. Larger studies are required over a longer period of time to confirm and explore the reasons for this finding. (Source: Journal of Clinical and Translational Endocrinology)
