Introduction: The fruit oil from Acrocomia aculeata (Macauba or Bocaiuva) is highly rich in antioxidants and other bioactive compounds, emerging as a natural source of high potential for the modulation of chronic non-communicable diseases (NCDs), like diabetes. Its effects on chronic NCDs are poorly studied yet. This review aimed to evaluate the therapeutic results of pharmaceutical preparations containing Acrocomia aculeata pulp oil that are used for chronic NCDs.
Method: A search was performed using PICO acronyms in English, Portuguese, and Spanish languages in the MEDLINE®, PubMed, EMBASE, Scopus, LILACs, and CENTRAL Cochrane Library databases. The degree of agreement for selection and eligibility was significant (Kappa= 0.992; 95% CI: 0.988-0.996). The difference between the intervention and control groups for blood glucose reduction was 63.5 ± 69.5 mg/dL (p<0.0001).
Result: Overall, an improvement percentage of 55.1 ± 0.1 was observed for the variables associated with chronic NCDs, which represented 89.96% of the relative risk reduction (efficacy).
Conclusion: The Acrocomia aculeate pulp oil exhibited promising results in experimental studies for glycemic control and reduction of a specific tumor, indicating a good potential to be explored for chronic NCDs treatment.

Background: Over the past two decades, insulin glargine 100 U/mL (Gla-100) has emerged as the "standard of care" basal insulin for the management of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). Both formulations, insulin glargine 100 U/mL (Gla-100) and glargine 300 U/mL (Gla- 300) have been extensively studied against various comparator basal insulins across various clinical and real-world studies. In this comprehensive article, we reviewed the evidence on both insulin glargine formulations in T1DM across clinical trials and real-world studies.
Methods: Evidence in T1DM for Gla-100 and Gla-300 since their approvals in 2000 and 2015, respectively, were reviewed.
Results: Gla-100 when compared to the second-generation basal insulins, Gla-300 and IDeg-100, demonstrated a comparable risk of overall hypoglycemia, but the risk of nocturnal hypoglycemia was higher with Gla-100. Additional benefits of Gla-300 over Gla-100 include a prolonged (>24- hours) duration of action, a more stable glucose-lowering profile, improved treatment satisfaction, and greater flexibility in the dose administration timing.
Conclusion: Both glargine formulations are largely comparable to other basal insulins in terms of glucose-lowering properties in T1DM. Further, risk of hypoglycemia is lower with Gla-100 than Neutral Protamine Hagedorn but comparable to insulin detemir.

Diabetes is a complex metabolic disease that has been associated with epigenetic changes. External factors such as dietary patterns can induce an imbalance in the pools of micronutrients and macronutrients in the body. Consequently, bioactive vitamins may influence epigenetic mechanisms via several pathways: involvement in the control of gene expression, and in protein synthesis, by acting as coenzymes and co-factors in the metabolism of methyl groups or methylation of DNA and histones. Herein, we present a perspective on the relevance of bioactive vitamins in the epigenetic modifications that occur in diabetes.
糖尿病是一种复杂的代谢性疾病,与表观遗传变化有关。饮食模式等外部因素会导致体内微量营养素和宏量营养素的不平衡。因此,生物活性维生素可能会通过以下几种途径影响表观遗传机制:参与控制基因表达和蛋白质合成,在甲基代谢或 DNA 和组蛋白甲基化过程中充当辅酶和辅助因子。在此,我们将从生物活性维生素与糖尿病表观遗传修饰的相关性角度进行阐述。

Diabetic retinopathy is a common complication of diabetes that affects the eyes and can lead to severe vision loss or blindness if left untreated. Chronic hyperglycemia destroys the blood vessels in the retina, resulting in diabetic retinopathy. The damage can lead to leakage of fluid and blood into the retina, causing edema, hemorrhages, and ischemia. A thorough evaluation by an ophthalmologist is necessary to determine the most appropriate course of treatment for each patient with diabetic retinopathy. The article discusses various surgical treatment options for diabetic retinopathy, including vitrectomy, scleral buckling, epiretinal membrane peeling, retinal detachment repair, and the risk factors of diabetic retinopathy. These surgical techniques can help to address the underlying causes of vision loss and prevent further complications from developing or worsening. To avoid complications and maintain vision, this review emphasizes the significance of early detection and treatment of diabetic retinopathy. Patients with diabetic retinopathy can improve their eyesight and quality of life with the help of some surgical treatments. The article also highlights some case studies in the field of diabetic retinopathy.

Bioactive compounds found in various natural sources, such as fruits, vegetables, and herbs, have been studied for their potential benefits in managing obesity and diabetes. These compounds include polyphenols, flavonoids, other antioxidants, fiber, and certain fatty acids. Studies have found that these compounds may improve insulin sensitivity, regulate blood sugar levels, and promote weight loss. However, the effects of these compounds can vary depending on the type and amount consumed, as well as individual factors, such as genetics and lifestyle. Nutraceutical substances have multifaceted therapeutic advantages, and they have been reported to have disease-prevention and health-promoting properties. Several clinically used nutraceuticals have been shown to target the pathogenesis of diabetes mellitus, obesity, and metabolic syndrome and their complications and modulate various clinical outcomes favorably. This review aims to highlight and comment on some of the most prominent natural components used as antidiabetics and in managing obesity.

Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is frequently referred to as a "lifestyle illness". In 2000, India (31.7 million) had the greatest global prevalence of diabetes mellitus, followed by China (20.8 million), the United States (17.7 million), and other countries. In recent years, the treatment of gene therapy (T2DM) has attracted intensive interest.
Objective: We aimed to critically review the literature on the various techniques and methods, which may be a possible novel approach through the gene therapy CRISPR Cas9 and some other gene editing techniques for T2DM. Interventional and pharmacological approaches for the treatment of T2DM were also included to identify novel therapies for its treatment.
Method: An extensive literature survey was done on databases like PubMed, Elsevier, Science Direct and Springer.

The diabetic milieu is associated with cascades of pathophysiological pathways that culminate in diabetic complications and tissue injuries. Autophagy is an essential process mandatory for cell survival and tissue homeostasis by degrading damaged organelles and removing injured cells. However, it may turn into a pathological process in an aberrant mode in the diabetic and/or malignant milieu. Moreover, autophagy could serve as a promising therapeutic target for many complications related to tissue injury. Glp-1 mimetics are a class of newer antidiabetic agents that reduce blood glucose through several pathways. However, some evidence suggests that they can provide extra glycemic benefits by modulating autophagy, although there is no complete understanding of this mechanism and its underlying molecular pathways. Hence, in the current review, we aimed to provide new insights on the possible impact of Glp-1 mimetics on autophagy and consequent benefits as well as mediating pathways.
