Clinical cardiovascular risk scoring and Coronary artery calcification evaluation are lacking in Type 2 Familial Partial Lipodystrophy patients who present higher cardiovascular events and risk factors. The epicardial adipose tissue volume - a visceral adipose tissue which is accumulated during lipodystrophy - is higher in type 2 diabetic patients with coronary artery disease. In this case control study, we assessed epicardial adipose tissue volume as a new marker of interest in these patients.
Methods
Patients with type 2 Familial Partial Lipodystrophy or control patients, in primary prevention for cardiovascular events, were followed up at the University Hospital of La Réunion. Type 2 Familial Partial Lipodystrophy patients undergoing both coronary artery calcification and clinical cardiovascular risk scoring were retrospectively included and paired with control patients for age, sex and body mass index (NCT07090629). The epicardial adipose tissue volume was measured for each of the 126 subjects, with a semi-automated technique using deep learning and AI. Results: Type 2 Familial Partial Lipodystrophy patients displayed significantly higher adipose tissue volume (77 ± 39 cm3) than control subjects at high cardiovascular risk (60 ± 30 cm3; P = 0.010).
Conclusions
we show for the first time patients with Type 2 Familial Partial Lipodystrophy present higher values of epicardial adipose tissue volume, an interesting biomarker to add to coronary artery calcification and clinical scoring.
目的:2型家族性部分脂肪营养不良患者存在较高的心血管事件和危险因素,缺乏临床心血管风险评分和冠状动脉钙化评估。心外膜脂肪组织体积-脂肪营养不良期间积累的内脏脂肪组织-在2型糖尿病合并冠状动脉疾病患者中较高。在这个病例对照研究中,我们评估了心外膜脂肪组织体积作为这些患者感兴趣的新标志物。方法:在拉西姆大学医院对2型家族性部分脂肪营养不良患者或对照患者进行心血管事件一级预防随访。回顾性纳入接受冠状动脉钙化和临床心血管风险评分的2型家族性部分脂肪营养不良患者,并根据年龄、性别和体重指数(NCT07090629)与对照患者配对。通过使用深度学习和人工智能的半自动技术,测量了126名受试者的心外膜脂肪组织体积。结果:2型家族性部分脂肪营养不良患者脂肪组织体积(77±39 cm3)明显高于心血管高危对照组(60±30 cm3, P = 0.010)。结论:我们首次发现2型家族性部分脂肪营养不良患者的心外膜脂肪组织体积值更高,这是一个有趣的生物标志物,可以增加冠状动脉钙化和临床评分。

Introduction
.- Exocrine dysfunction can occur in type 1 diabetes (T1D). When exocrine function is impaired, it is unclear whether alterations also involve other endocrine cell types beyond beta cells. Pancreatic polypeptide (PP) is, besides insulin, the sole hormone that is specific to islets of Langerhans. The aim of the DIAPP study was to evaluate if PP secretion is also altered when T1D is complicated by exocrine failure.
Materials and Methods
. - Seven patients with T1D and normal pancreatic function (T1DN), 9 patients with T1D and exocrine failure (T1DEF) were compared to 13 patients with type 3c diabetes; i. e. with chronic pancreatitis (CP). All of them had a mixed meal test (MMT), C-peptide and PP being determined before and at 60, 90 and 120 minutes.
Results
. – The area under the curve of C-peptide during MMT (AUCCpep) was significantly greater in the CP group than in both T1D groups (P < 0.0001 vs. the T1DEF group and P < 0.001 vs. the T1D group) while the area under the curve of PP (AUCPP) was significantly smaller in the CP group than in both T1D groups (P < 0.01 vs. both groups). The AUCPP / AUCCpep ratio was higher in the CP group than in both T1D groups (P < 0.0001 vs. both groups).
Conclusion
. - PP secretion was altered specifically in patients with CP, not in T1D, even when associated with pancreatic exocrine failure.
作品简介:。外分泌功能障碍可发生在1型糖尿病(T1D)。当外分泌功能受损时,尚不清楚这种改变是否也涉及β细胞以外的其他内分泌细胞类型。胰多肽(PP)是除胰岛素外唯一的朗格汉斯胰岛特有的激素。DIAPP研究的目的是评估当T1D合并外分泌衰竭时,PP分泌是否也会改变。材料与方法:。-将7例T1D伴胰腺功能正常(T1DN)患者,9例T1D伴外分泌功能衰竭(T1DEF)患者与13例3c型糖尿病患者进行比较;即慢性胰腺炎(CP)。试验前、60分钟、90分钟、120分钟分别进行混餐试验(MMT)、c肽和PP测定。结果:。- MMT过程中,CP组c肽曲线下面积(AUCCpep)显著大于T1D组(P < 0.0001 vs. T1DEF组,P < 0.001 vs. T1D组),而CP组PP曲线下面积(AUCPP)显著小于T1D组(P < 0.01 vs.两组)。CP组AUCPP / AUCCpep比值高于T1D组(P < 0.0001)。结论:。- PP分泌在CP患者中发生特异性改变,而在T1D患者中没有,即使与胰腺外分泌衰竭相关。

Aim
To identify cut-off points for handgrip strength (HGS) detecting T2D risk among adults in France, and to examine the relationships between absolute and relative HGS and the incidence of T2D.
Methods
Data from 18,519 adults (5096 men) in the NutriNet-Santé cohort, were analyzed. HGS was measured using dynamometry on both hands. Nine indicators were derived, including absolute values and those relative to body weight and BMI. Receiver Operating Characteristic curves and cubic splines were used to assess predictive performance, as well as cut-off points for HGS that maximize this performance. Cox proportional hazards models were used to evaluate associations between reduced HGS and T2D.
Results
Over 9.8 years, 329 incident T2D cases were validated. Absolute HGS showed not associated with T2D risk, whereas higher relative HGS was associated with lower risk (e.g. HR for HGS relative to body weight: 1.30, 95 % CI: 1.07–1.58). Relative HGS showed better discrimination (AUC 0.623–0.675) than absolute HGS (≤ 0.44). Optimal cut-offs were 0.446 kg/kg and 1.086 kg/kg/m² (dominant hand), and 0.397 kg/kg and 1.033 kg/kg/m² (non-dominant). Low relative HGS was associated with increased risk (HRs 1.42–1.68), consistent across sensitivity, sex, and age analyses.
Conclusions
Relative, but not absolute, handgrip strength is independently associated with T2D incidence and shows modest discriminative ability. Given its simplicity and cost-effectiveness, grip strength may be a useful screening tool in clinical and public health settings.

LMNA-associated familial partial lipodystrophy (FPLD2) is characterized by limb lipoatrophy, cervicofacial and visceral abdominal lipohypertrophy, insulin resistance-related complications and early coronary artery disease (CAD), but epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is poorly described. We aimed to characterize EAT as a potential new marker of cardiovascular risk in patients with FPLD2. Using a validated deep-learning algorithm, we measured EAT volume from cardiac CT-scans routinely performed for coronary artery calcium (CAC) scoring in patients with FPLD2 (n = 26, 24 women, 65 % with diabetes, median age 49 [32;57] years) compared to patients with type-2 diabetes (T2D) (n = 44, 40 women, age 49 [41;59], p = 0.18). Although lower BMI (23.3 [21;26.6] vs. 27.2 [24.7;29.6], P = 0.03) and HbA1c (6.5 [5.8;7.7] vs. 7.8 [7;8.5] %, P = 0.003) in patients with FPLD2 vs. T2D, EAT volume (110 [72;150] vs. 60 [42;78] ml, P < 0.001) and prevalence of CAD (19 vs. 2 %, P = 0.003) were higher. EAT was positively related to CAC score in the FPLD2 group. Our findings support that EAT is increased in patients with FPLD2 and represents a specific ectopic adipose tissue which could contribute to the increased cardiovascular risk.

Aim
Globally, sugar intake from sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) exceeds the daily recommended limits for intake levels of free sugar. Artificially sweetened beverages (ASBs), widely used to replace SSBs, are increasingly linked to adverse health outcomes. Hence, we assessed the association of sweetened beverage intake (SSBs and ASBs) with the risk of type 2 diabetes (T2DM).
Methods
Data from the Melbourne Collaborative Cohort Study (MCCS) on 36,608 individuals aged 40 to 69 years were used. Self-reported data on diabetes were collected. The frequency of SSBs and ASBs consumption was categorized as: never or < 1 time/month; 1–3 per month; 1–6 times per week; ≥1 time / day. The association of sweetened beverage intake with the incidence of T2DM was assessed using modified Poisson regression, adjusted for lifestyle, obesity, socioeconomic, and other confounders.
Results
Intakes of SSBs and ASBs were associated with an increased risk of T2DM. A high intake (≥ 1 time/day) compared to a low intake (never or < 1 time / month) was associated with increased risk of T2DM for SSB intake (incidence risk ratio (IRR) = 1.23; 95 % CI: 1.05–1.45; P for trend = 0.006) and for ASB intake (IRR = 1.38; 95 % CI: 1.18–1.61; P for trend < 0.001). Further adjustment for body mass index (BMI) and waist-to hip ratio (WHR) eliminated the association for SSBs, but not ASBs intake.
Conclusions
Both sugar and artificially sweetened beverages were linked to an increased risk of T2DM. The findings highlight the need for public health measures to control the intake of sweetened beverages.

Aim
People living with type 1 diabetes (T1D) are at elevated risk of additional autoimmune diseases (ADs) than the general population. We aimed to describe the association between additional ADs and T1D-related physical and mental burden in adults.
Methods
This was a cross-sectional analysis using data from the BEhaviors, Therapies, TEchnologies, and hypoglycemic Risk in T1D (BETTER) registry. Using patient reported-outcomes and validated questionnaires, we compared prevalence of vascular complications, hypoglycemia, and mental health issues between those with T1D alone (AD-) and T1D with additional AD (AD+).
Results
Among 3222 participants (66.2 % female, 42.7 ± 15.0 years), 36.3 % reported ≥ 1 AD+. The AD+ group was older (+4.4 years) and more female (+17.7 %) than the AD- group. The AD+ group had similar HbA1c (P = 0.20) but was more likely to report level 2 hypoglycemia in the past month (OR: 1.27 [95 %Cl 1.06–1.52]) and level 3 hypoglycemia since diagnosis (1.22 [1.05–1.42]). The AD+ group reported more cardiovascular disease (1.40 [1.03 to 1.90]), nephropathy (1.49 [1.19–1.86]), neuropathy (1.38 [1.13–1.69]), retinopathy (1.48 [1.22–1.78]), higher depression scores (p = 0.015), and anxiety/depression medication use (1.31 [1.10–1.56]). Number of AD+ was positively associated with depression scores (1 AD+ P = 0.055, 2+ AD+ p = 0.027), level 3 hypoglycemia since diagnosis (1 AD+ p = 0.037, 2+ AD+ P = 0.025), and number of chronic complications (1 AD+ P < 0.001, 2+ AD+ P < 0.001).
Conclusion
For people with T1D, living with additional ADs is associated with higher levels of physical and mental diabetes complications, warranting regular screening in this population.
目的:1型糖尿病(T1D)患者患其他自身免疫性疾病(ADs)的风险高于一般人群。我们的目的是描述额外的ad与成人t1d相关的身体和精神负担之间的关系。方法:这是一项横断面分析,使用来自T1D患者的行为、治疗、技术和低血糖风险(BETTER)登记的数据。使用患者报告的结果和有效的问卷,我们比较了单独T1D (AD-)和T1D合并AD (AD+)患者血管并发症、低血糖和精神健康问题的患病率。结果:在3222名参与者中(66.2%为女性,42.7±15.0岁),36.3%报告≥1 AD+。AD+组比AD-组年龄大(+4.4岁),女性患者多(+ 17.7%)。AD+组HbA1c相似(P = 0.20),但在过去一个月内报告2级低血糖(OR: 1.27 [95% Cl 1.06-1.52])和诊断后报告3级低血糖(OR: 1.22[1.05-1.42])的可能性更大。AD+组出现更多心血管疾病(1.40[1.03 ~ 1.90])、肾病(1.49[1.19 ~ 1.86])、神经病变(1.38[1.13 ~ 1.69])、视网膜病变(1.48[1.22 ~ 1.78])、抑郁评分(p = 0.015)和焦虑/抑郁药物使用(1.31[1.10 ~ 1.56])。AD+次数与抑郁评分(1 AD+ P = 0.055, 2+ AD+ P = 0.027)、诊断以来3级低血糖(1 AD+ P = 0.037, 2+ AD+ P = 0.025)、慢性并发症次数(1 AD+ P < 0.001, 2+ AD+ P < 0.001)呈正相关。结论:对于T1D患者,患有额外ad的患者与更高水平的身体和精神糖尿病并发症相关,需要对该人群进行定期筛查。

Aim
To conduct a population-based study on the quality of life (QoL) in families (mothers, fathers, and children) of children using closed loop (CL) compared to those using multiple daily injections (MDI), open loop (OL), and low glucose suspend (LGS) systems.
Methods
A nationwide French survey of children with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and their parents was conducted through the national family association, Familles AJD, in 2024. Six validated questionnaires were used for assessing QoL, anxiety, time spent managing diabetes, and sleep quality. Multivariate analyses were performed.
Results
We collected 1593 surveys (1093 from mothers, 242 from fathers, and 258 from children > 8 years). T1D children were aged 11.3 ± 4 years, had diabetes for 4.7 ± 3.8 years; 18% used MDI, 41% OL, 13% LGS, and 29% CL. HbA1c was 7.3 ± 0.6% with CL, vs. 7.7 ± 1.0% for other treatments (P < 0.05). CL was associated with improved QoL scores in parents (compared to OL and MDI), and children (compared to OL, not MDI). Time spent managing diabetes was lower with CL in parents, not children. Anxiety and sleep quality were not improved with CL. Child age (in parents) and household income (in all) were associated with improved QoL. HbA1c and a history of ketoacidosis (in mothers), or a history of severe hypoglycemia (in children), had a deleterious effect. Mothers experienced lower QoL, but scores correlated within the household.
Conclusion
CL enhanced the QoL in families of children with T1D. Socioeconomic factors and diabetes-related events influence QoL differently depending on the respondent group.

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) are two highly prevalent diseases with rapidly growing incidences worldwide. They are frequently associated due to their shared pathophysiology and their bidirectional influence. MASLD-related liver fibrosis is a major driver of hepatic complications and is associated with increased risk of extrahepatic complications, such as cardiovascular and renal diseases in patients with T2D. In this setting, systematic screening for advanced fibrosis related to MASLD is now unanimously recommended for patients with T2D, due to its high prevalence and specific therapeutic management. The French Association for the Study of the Liver (AFEF) and the Francophone Diabetes Society (SFD) convened a group of experts to summarize the current knowledge on MASLD screening and therapeutic management in patients with T2D and thus provide a roadmap to healthcare professionals, especially diabetologists or primary care physicians. Our focus will be on the particularities of dietary and behavioral management, pharmacological treatment of T2D, and bariatric procedures in cases of MASLD. Our goal is to provide clinical guidance for adapting drug therapy in the presence of significant fibrosis in order to slow the progression of liver disease and reduce the risk of associated clinical events.

Background
A risk of excessive reduction in skeletal muscle mass (SSM), potentially leading to sarcopenia, when using glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1)-based therapies, is currently a matter of debate. While most available results are rather reassuring in the general population, sarcopenia may become a concern in some special subgroups with comorbidities known to be associated with a higher risk of sarcopenia, independently of any GLP-1-based therapy.
Methods
An extensive literature search was done to identify studies that investigated the effects of GLP-1-based therapies on changes in SMM and sarcopenia in special populations, i.e. older people, patients with type 2 diabetes, atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, heart failure, chronic kidney disease, and metabolic dysfunction–associated liver disease.
Results
Several publications emphasized the risk of sarcopenia and recommended caution when prescribing GLP-1-based therapies in people with these comorbidities of interest. However, hard data remain scarce in the literature, without any evidence-based demonstration of a significantly increased risk of sarcopenia. Nevertheless, as old age potentiates the risk of sarcopenia, older patients with these comorbidities (especially advanced heart failure or renal disease) deserve more careful attention.
Conclusion
While the risk of sarcopenia associated with GLP-1-based therapies remains controversial in the general population, a higher risk in special populations with comorbidities has been repeatedly emphasized despite the lack of evidence-based data in the literature. Because these agents showed major clinical benefits in patients with such comorbidities but sarcopenia could mitigate them, there is an urgent need to implement dedicated studies with appropriate measures of sarcopenia in these special populations.
