BACKGROUND: Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common chronic liver disease in the world, which includes changes from hepatic steatosis and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis to fibrosis and cirrhosis. Attempts to find noninvasive markers of liver fibrosis have led to a variety of scales, diagnostic algorithms, and imaging techniques. Individual studies have analyzed the relationship between the FINDRISC scale and hepatic steatosis and concluded that this questionnaire can be used as part of population screening to identify individuals at risk for hepatic steatosis. However, our review of the literature did not reveal any clinical studies on the use and effectiveness of the FINDRISC in liver fibrosis screening.AIM: To evaluate diagnostic value of FINDRISC for liver fibrosis detection.MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study enrolled patients aged 40–60 years from unorganized outpatient population. The sample of patients was formed randomly according to the inclusion and noninclusion criteria. All patients were assessed with standard anthropometric parameters. The FINDRISC questionnaire was used. All patients underwent transabdominal ultrasound examination of the liver and transient liver elastometry. The degree of steatosis was evaluated using Hamaguchi ultrasound scale. RESULTS: The study included 100 patients. An increased risk of type 2 DM (≥7 points) was detected in 68% of patients using the FINDRISC scale. Liver steatosis was diagnosed in 41% of patients. Median values of hepatic elastic modulus by transient elastometry were 4.50 (4.00; 5.25) kPa. At the same time, liver elasticity modulus values ≥5.9 kPa were registered in 11 (11.0%) patients. When analyzing the array of sensitivity and specificity values using the ROC-curve, it was found that for the FINDRISC scale the maximum LR+ and the minimum LRvalues were observed when the number of points on the indicated scale exceeded 10. At this cutoff, the FINDRISC scale had a sensitivity of 81.8% and specificity of 61.8% for detecting liver fibrosis (liver modulus of elasticity ≥5.9 kPa). The scale was of good diagnostic value (AUC 0.699; 95% CI 0.530–0.815).CONCLUSION: In an unorganized sample of patients aged 40–60 years the FINDRISC can serve as a diagnostic tool for liver fibrosis and steatosis. Sum of FINDRISC scores >10 allowed to diagnose liver fibrosis (liver elastic modulus ≥5.9kPa) with sensitivity 81.8% and specificity 61.8%. The probability of absence of hepatic fibrosis with FINDRISC scale values <10 was 96.5%.

Acromegaly is a severe neuroendocrine disease caused by chronic excessive production of somatotropic hormone (STH), characterized by specific changes in appearance, metabolic disorders. In 95% of cases, the cause of pathology is STH-producing pituitary adenomas. The priority method of treatment for acromegaly is transnasal transsphenoidal adenomectomy. If it is impossible to carry out neurosurgical intervention, in order to prevent the progression of the disease and the development of complications, patients are recommended drug therapy with long-acting somatostatin analogues, and if their effectiveness is low, additional radiation therapy may be applied to the neoplasm area. The usage of a relatively new group of drugs, antagonists of STH receptors, namely Pegvisomant for the purpose of drug treatment of acromegaly demonstrates high efficacy even in cases of aggressive forms resistant to other types of treatment. In this article we present two clinical cases of hereditary acromegaly, when the initiation of Pegvisomant therapy led to the achievement of clinical and laboratory remission of acromegaly in patients with an aggressive form of the disease, accompanied by continued growth of residual neoplasm tissue and preservation of its secreting ability even after surgical interventions, radiatiotherapy and long-term drug treatment with somatostatin analogues. The results of the above clinical cases confirm the success of mono- or combined (in cases with continued growth of the neoplasm) therapy with a growth hormone receptor antagonist, Pegvisomant, especially in the case of aggressive acromegaly.

Hypoparathyroidism is an endocrine disease caused by damage of the parathyroid glands and characterized by underproduction of parathyroid hormone. This can lead to severe hypocalcemia and its associated complications. The chronic hypoparathyroidism requires lifelong therapy including calcium and vitamin D analogues. The goal of treatment is to maintain the target parameters of phosphorus-calcium metabolism. At the same time, there is a risk of iatrogenic hypercalcemia on the standard therapy, up to the hypercalcemic crisis, often complicated by the acute renal failure. Moreover, chronic hypercalcemia acts as a predisposing factor for nephrolithiasis, nephrocalcinosis, chronic renal failure including pre- and dialysis stages.Dihydrotachysterol is a synthetic analogue of vitamin D, which was previously widely prescribed for hypocalcaemic hypoparathyroidism. In accordance with modern Russian and international guidelines, this drug should not be used in the treatment of chronic hypoparathyroidism. The main features in the metabolism of dihydrotachysterol (long elimination period, lack of feedback regulation of the active metabolites, high biological activity) and a narrow therapeutic window cause the frequent development of hypercalcemia and associated disorders.We present several clinical cases of patients with hypoparathyroidism treated with dihydrotachysterol, which was complicated by severe hypercalcemia and acute renal failure.

ACTH — ectopic syndrome (ACTH-ES) is a severe multisystem disease caused by paraneoplastic secretion of ACTH itself and/or much less often corticoliberin (CL) by tumor tissue. The frequency of ACTH-ES is 12–20% of cases of endogenous hypercortisolism, i.e. about 1–2 cases per million population, and covers a range of tumors, from benign neoplasms to malignant tumors with widespread metastases, while the most common causes of ACTH-ES are tumors of the lung, pancreas and thymus, and more rare localizations are neuroendocrine tumors (NET) of the intestine, medullary thyroid cancer, pheochromocytoma and mesothelioma. The optimal treatment for ACTH-ES is to remove the ACTH-secreting tumor. For patients with an unidentified source of ectopic hormone secretion, the choice is narrowed to bilateral adrenalectomy followed by hormone replacement therapy with glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids. Medication options are generally a low-effective/palliative treatment option. In this article, we present a clinical case of the successful use of long-acting octreotide in a 36-year-old woman with severe ACTH-ES for long-term control of paraneoplastic ACTH secretion, against which a clinical and biochemical improvement comparable to complete remission of the disease was achieved.

The literature review presents the results of modern studies of the relationship between diet and intestinal microbiota in the regulation of metabolic disorders. Metabolic syndrome, which is a symptom complex that combines abdominal obesity, insulin resistance, hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia and arterial hypertension, remains an important problem, being a risk factor for cardiovascular, neurodegenerative, oncological diseases and the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Although the pathogenesis of the metabolic syndrome has not yet been fully elucidated, it is known that visceral obesity and its associated complications, such as dyslipidemia and increased levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines, play a central role. The article presents data on the impact of the consumption of certain food products, the inclusion of plant biologically active substances (flavonoids, polyphenols, etc.) in the diet, as well as the use of elimination diets with the exclusion of carbohydrates or fats from the diet, on reducing the risk of cardiovascular accidents, levels of fasting glucose, total cholesterol, LDL, triglycerides, C-reactive protein, leptin, insulin, reduction in body weight and waist circumference, reduction in the level of circulating endotoxins and changes in the activity of immunocompetent cells. Data are presented on the possible influence of the intestinal microbiota in maintaining inflammation and the formation of degenerative changes in the body. The role of changes in the ratio of the levels of pathogenic microflora, bifidobacteria and lactobacilli in the formation of a pathological condition is shown.

Obesity is an uprising trend across the world resulting in huge costs for healthcare systems and declines in the quality of life in patients. Bariatric surgery is one of the most effective approaches to weight loss. Although bariatric surgery can be considered as a minimally invasive approach it has a series of complications such as weight regain 1 to 4 years after surgery. Nonetheless, most patients achieve sufficient weight loss, but the other subjects with supervised strategies would be able to manage food intake and change problematic lifestyles to continue the weight loss process. In this review article, we aim to gather valuable interventions performed and reported by researchers to manage weight regain in bariatric patients. Weight regain is a multi-factorial condition owing to hormonal imbalances, nutritional deficiencies, physical inactivity, mental health disorders, problematic dietary behaviors, medical issues such as thyroid, adrenal, kidney, or heart problems, taking new medications, diabetes relapse, and pregnancy, as well as anatomic and surgical factors. Therefore, its remission needs interdisciplinary approaches.

BACKGROUND: Studies have shown a high incidence of metabolic disorders and cardiovascular diseases in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). PHPT is usually diagnosed in people of age over 50 years and therefore age-associated changes of metabolism should be excluded. Researching predictors of cardiovascular pathology contributes to choosing optimal approaches to personalized patient management.AIM: To determine the features of metabolic disorders in patients of various age groups with confirmed active stage of PHPT.MATERIALS AND METHODS: A single-center observational retrospective comparative study of patients with active PHPT at the age of 18-49 years (Group 1, n=66) and over 50 years (Group 2, n=290) was carried out. The exclusion criteria for both groups were: persistent PHPT or recurrence after surgical treatment of the disease in history; clinical/genetically confirmed multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome; for Group 1 — pregnancy, lactation. The assessment of laboratory parameters of mineral, carbohydrate, fat and purine metabolism obtained during a hospital examination was carried out, the frequencies of various metabolic disorders were determined and compared between age groups.RESULTS: There were no significant differences in parathyroid hormone and serum calcium levels between age groups, however, there were more severe hypercalciuria, a tendency to active bone metabolism and lower vitamin D level in Group 1. Patients of Group 2 had statistically significantly lower glomerular filtration rate and a higher frequency of bone complications. In the same group glycaemia and triglycerides levels were higher (the latter difference has the level of a statistical tendency). These patients also had a higher body mass index and, as a result, a higher incidence of obesity (37% vs 20%, p=0.006) and diabetes mellitus type 2 (12.5% vs 3%, p=0.013). At the same time, patients did not significantly differ in the rates of hypercholesterolemia (62% in Group 1 vs 70% in Group 2, p=0.228), hypertriglyceridemia (27% vs 32%, p=0.433) and hyperuricemia (42% vs 50%, p=0.302), significantly exceeding similar indicators in the general Russian population.CONCLUSION: Carbohydrate disorders are more often observed in patients older than 50 years, providing an increased prevalence of diabetes mellitus type 2 among patients with PHPT compared with the general population. The high incidence of various types of dyslipidemia and hyperuricemia in the primary parathyroid pathology has no age specific features. Thereby these disorders are significant risk factors of cardiovascular diseases, even in young people with PHPT.

At the same time, patients did not significantly differ in the rates of hypercholesterolemia (62% in Group 1 vs 70% in Group 2, p=0.228), hypertriglyceridemia (27% vs 32%, p=0.433) and hyperuricemia (42% vs 50%, p=0.302), significantly exceeding similar indicators in the general Russian population.CONCLUSION: Carbohydrate disorders are more often observed in patients older than 50 years, providing an increased prevalence of diabetes mellitus type 2 among patients with PHPT compared with the general population. The high incidence of various types of dyslipidemia and hyperuricemia in the primary parathyroid pathology has no age specific features. Thereby these disorders are significant risk factors of cardiovascular diseases, even in young people with PHPT.","PeriodicalId":54700,"journal":{"name":"Obesity and Metabolism-Milan","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47987249","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
Irisin is a polypeptide hormone of muscle tissue (myokine), the synthesis and secretion of which increase against the background of physical exertion, which plays a significant role in the metabolism of fat, muscle and bone tissues. It is known that irisin promotes the transformation of white adipose tissue into brown adipose tissue. It has also been experimentally proven that the introduction of irisin contributed to an increase in bone mass and the prevention of osteoporosis and muscular atrophy. There are works indicating a positive effect of irisin in the functioning of bone, fat and muscle tissues in humans. Diabetes mellitus (DM) is an independent risk factor for osteoporotic fractures and the development of specific diabetic myopathy, at the cellular level similar to the aging of muscle tissue, and type 2 diabetes is also associated with the presence of obesity. Thus, it is of particular interest to study the effect of irisin on the state of bone, muscle and adipose tissues and glucose homeostasis in patients with diabetes. This literature review highlights the biological functions of irisin in healthy people and patients with DM.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease currently affects more than 30% of the population. Recent studies highlight the role of genetic polymorphisms in genes associated with fat catabolism and anabolism in the manifestation of this condition and its progression. The work analyzes foreign publications on the molecular and biochemical aspects of these polymorphisms, as well as works studying their effect on the state of the liver and markers of its pathology over the past 10 years. Thus, polymorphisms of the PNPLA3, MBOAT7, and TM6SF2, affecting the functionality of the proteins they express, lead to a change in the metabolism of fatty acids in the liver, which in turn leads to the development of NAFLD and its progression. Despite the fact that the contribution of the rs738409 polymorphism of the PNPLA3 gene is well described both in foreign and Russian articles, polymorphisms of the MBOAT7 and TM6SF2 genes and their effect on NAFLD, as well as the molecular biochemical mechanisms underlying it, have been studied much worse in foreign studies and are little mentioned in Russian ones. In addition, the issue of the severity of the influence of the above polymorphisms on populations of different ethnic and age groups requires additional research. This work attempts to systematize the available data on these issues.
