To characterize prescribing of glucose-lowering medication annually and to quantify the annual frequency of hypoglycemia among residents in long-term care (LTC) facilities with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is associated with risk of sarcopenia. However, whether glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels are associated with sarcopenia has not reached a consensus. The purpose of this study was to examine the association between diabetes status based on HbA1c levels and sarcopenia indices in comm...
Diabetes self-care may become increasingly challenging as cognition declines. We sought to characterize glycated hemoglobin A (HbA) trajectories, markers of diabetes-related management, health care utilization, and mortality in people with preexisting type 2 diabetes (T2D) with and without dementia and bas...
To examine the effect of aerobic and resistant exercise intervention on inflammaging in middle-aged and older adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) using inflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin (IL)-1 β, IL-6, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and C-reactive protein (CRP) as biomarkers.
To analyze the effects of a program composed of resistance training and nutritional interventions on functional capacity, maximal strength, and power output after 2 years of follow-up, including 2 periods of 16 weeks of intervention followed by several weeks of intervention cessation in frail patients with...
Hypoglycemia is a potentially life-threatening drug event under antidiabetic treatment. The aim of the study was to examine time trends in severe hypoglycemia in older adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and antidiabetic treatment.
To investigate the prevalence, outcomes, and factors associated with potential glycemic overtreatment and undertreatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in long-term care facilities (LTCFs).
Diabetes and prediabetes contribute to an increased risk of cognitive decline and dementia. Currently, it remains unclear whether elevated blood HbA1c levels, including prediabetes levels, affect reversion from mild cognitive impairment (MCI) to normal cognition. This study, therefore, aimed to examine the...
Type 2 diabetes is a risk factor for sarcopenia. Evidence on the prevention of sarcopenia using blood glucose–lowering therapy is limited. We aimed to examine the relationship between changes in glycemic control and sarcopenia and the effect of antidiabetic agents against sarcopenia in patients with type 2...
