- Background
Incretin hormone levels as a predictor of type 2 diabetes mellitus have not been fully investigated. Therefore, we measured incretin hormone levels to examine the relationship between circulating incretin hormones, diabetes, and future diabetes development in this study. MethodsA nested case-control study was conducted in a Korean cohort. The study included the following two groups: the control group (n=149), the incident diabetes group (n=65). Fasting total glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and total glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP) levels were measured and compared between these groups. ResultsFasting total GIP levels were higher in the incident diabetes group than in the control group (32.64±22.68 pmol/L vs. 25.54±18.37 pmol/L, P=0.034). There was no statistically significant difference in fasting total GLP-1 levels between groups (1.14±1.43 pmol/L vs. 1.39±2.13 pmol/L, P=0.199). In multivariate analysis, fasting total GIP levels were associated with an increased risk of diabetes (odds ratio, 1.005; P=0.012) independent of other risk factors. ConclusionFasting total GIP levels may be a risk factor for the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus. This association persisted even after adjusting for other metabolic parameters such as elevated fasting glucose, hemoglobin A1c, and obesity in the pre-diabetic period.

Abstract
PDFPubReader
Subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH) is a common disorder that is characterized by elevated thyroid-stimulating hormone levels in conjunction with free thyroxine concentrations within the normal reference range. Thyroid hormones are known to affect the heart and vasculature and, as a result, the impact of SCH on the cardiovascular (CV) system has recently become an important topic of research. Strong evidence points to a link between SCH and CV risk factors such as alterations in blood pressure, lipid levels, and atherosclerosis. Additionally, accumulating evidence indicates that SCH is associated with metabolic syndrome and heart failure. The present review proposes that SCH may be a potentially modifiable risk factor of CV disease and mortality. However, large-scale clinical trials with appropriate power investigating the risks and benefits of SCH treatment are required to determine whether these benefits can be achieved with levothyroxine therapy.

- Background
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a condition characterized by a cluster of metabolic disorders and is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). This study analyzed data from the Korean Health and Genome Study to examine the impact of MetS on CVD. MethodsA total of 8,898 subjects (4,241 males and 4,657 females), 40 to 69 years of age, were enrolled and evaluated for the development of new onset CVD from 2001 to 2012 (median 8.1 years of follow-up). ResultsThe prevalence of MetS at baseline was 22.0% (932/4,241) and 29.7% (1,383/4,657) in males and females, respectively. MetS was associated with increased risk of coronary heart disease (CHD; hazard ratio [HR], 1.818; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.312 to 2.520 in males; HR, 1.789; 95% CI, 1.332 to 2.404 in females) and CVD (HR, 1.689; 95% CI, 1.295 to 2.204 in males; HR, 1.686; 95% CI, 1.007 to 2.192 in females). Specifically, MetS was associated with risk of future stroke in females only (HR, 1.486; 95% CI, 1.007 to 2.192). Among MetS components, abdominal obesity and hypertension were independent predictors of both CHD and CVD. In addition, a higher number of MetS components correlated with higher CVD risk. ConclusionMetS is a significant risk factor for the development of CVD although its impact varies between sexes.

Abstract

- Hyperthyroidism is diagnosed when a patient is presented with typical symptoms, such as weight loss, palpitation, and hand tremor. However, early diagnosis is difficult in elders, because they have no typical symptoms, but only cardiovascular or muscular symptoms. In hyperthyroidism, there are often with neurologic changes, leading to various neurologic symptoms. Generalized or focal seizures are rarely reported in thyrotoxicosis and thyrotoxic crisis. Further, cases of hyperthyroidism presented as generalized seizure attack are extremely rare. We report a case of hyperthyroidism. A patient is presented at the hospital with mental change, as well as generalized seizure, who was finally diagnosed to have Graves' disease. A 56-year-old male was admitted to the hospital because of mental change with generalized seizure attack. Initial neurologic evaluations, including a brain magnetic resonance imaging and electroencephalogram proved to be normal. But, thyroid function test showed abnormal results. We diagnosed him as Graves' disease and prescribed anti-thyroid drug. Thereafter, there has been no recurrence of neurologic symptoms for 12 months.

Abstract

- Primary hyperparathyroidism is mainly caused by parathyroid adenoma (85%) and is characterized by hypercalcemia, osteoporosis, renal stones, and gastrointestinal and neurological disorders. Because of improvements in blood analysis over the last two decades, primary hyperparathyroidism is typically diagnosed early and asymptomatically. A rare clinical manifestations of primary hyperparathyroidism, brown tumors (osteitis fibrosa cystica), are osteolytic lesions resulting from long-term hyperparathyroidism. Radiologically, it is difficult to distinguish a brown tumor from plasmacytoma, multiple myeloma, or bone metastasis. We report a case of a 44-year-old man with primary hyperparathyroidism that caused a large brown tumor (11 x 5 x 8 cm) that mimicked plasmacytoma or cancer metastasis on pelvic magnetic resonance imaging. After a bone biopsy report that was highly suggestive of a brown tumor, serum calcium and intact parathyroid hormone levels were determined. The lesion was ultimately diagnosed as a brown tumor and a parathyroidectomy was performed. After 1 year, the lesion has nearly regressed by follow up of the anteroposterior view of the pelvis and bone mineral density has improved. The present case highlights the importance of considering brown tumors in the evaluation of patients presenting with hypercalcemia and osteolytic lesions without definite primary neoplasm.

- BACKGROUND
The aim of this study is to verify the effects of fenofibrate monotherapy and fenofibrate combined with exercise for improving metabolic syndrome and hepatic steatosis. METHODS: Thirty-four weeks old OLETF rats (Otsuka Long-Evans Tokushima Fatty Rats, n = 20) were divided four groups: the regular diet group (n = 5, DD group), the exercise group (n = 5, DE group), the fenofibrate (100 mg/kg) treated group (n = 5, DF group) and the combination treatment group {fenofibrate and exercise (n = 5, EF group)}. After 5 weeks of treatment, blood was drawn for measuring the blood glucose, insulin, lipid and leptin levels. All the subjects were sacrificed for assessment of their body adiposity and hepatic steatosis. RESULTS: The total amount of food intake, body weight and total body weight of the rat were significantly decreased in the EF and DF groups compared to the DD group. The plasma triglyceride and glucose levels were significantly decreased in the EF and DF groups compared to the DD group. The HOMA-IR of EF, DF and DE groups were significantly decreased compared with that of the DD group. The plasma leptin levels of the EF and DF groups were significantly decreased compared with those of the DD and DE groups. The hepatic steatosis index was significantly decreased in the EF and DF groups compared to the DD and DE groups. CONCLUSION: Fenofibrate monotherapy was effective to control three major components (obesity, hypertriglyceridemia and hyperglycemia) of metabolic syndrome and hepatic steatosis in OLETF rats. Exercise combined with fenofibrate treatment showed an additional effect compared to that of fenofibrate monotherapy.

- Insulinoma is insulin-secreting tumor that almost all originate in the pancreas and cause symptoms related to hypoglycemia. The documentation of metastatic lesions by imaging studies, is only accurate mean of diagnosing malignant insulinoma before surgical exploration. We experienced a case of malignant insulinoma with liver, adrenal glands, regional lymph nodes and multiple bone metastasis. Abdominal ultrasonography, computed tomography and liver, bone scanning were used to evaluate the disease. Tissue diagnosis was obtained by percutaneous needle biopsy of liver metastasis. The patient was treated with Octreotide therapy and combination chemotherapy(Streptozocin and 5-FU), but she did not respond to these regimen. Now, we present this case with the brief review of literatures.

- The aim of this study was to evaluate the quantitative changes of apoprotein levels in non-insulin dependent diabetics.As the subjects of this study, 37 patients were selected among non-insulin dependent diabetics admitted to Dong-A University Hospital between March 1990 and February 1994. They were divided into two groups. One group(n=20) had the diabetic dyslipidemia(Group DD) and the other group(n=17) had no diabetic dyslipidemia(Group D). For the control, normal healthy persons(n=17) were studied.Plasma lipid and apoprotein levels of all the subjects were measured. The results were as follows;1) Apoprotein AI & AII levels were significantly decreased in Group DD compared with both Group D and Control, but there was no significant difference between Group D and Control.2) Apoprotein B levels were significantly decreased in both Group DD and Group D compared with Control, but there was no significant difference between Group DD and Group D. 3) Apoprotein CII levels were significantly increased in both Group DD and Group D compared with Control, but there was no significant difference between Group DD and Group D. 4) Apoprotein CIII levels were significantly increased in Group D compared with both Group DD and Control, but there was no significant difference between Group DD and Control. 5) Apoprotein E levels were not significantly different among three groups.These results suggest that NIDDM itself causes the level of apoprotein B to decrease and the level of apoprotein CII to increase, regardless of the associated diabetic dyslipidemia.
