Objective: To determine rate of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and its related features in women with prediabetes.
Methods: Of 3465 consecutive women applied between 2021 and 2023, 3218 women with diabetes mellitus or conditions affecting gonadal functions were excluded through digital screening and tele-interviews. Remaining 247 women underwent clinical assessments, excluding another 49 due to other endocrine diseases. The diagnosis of PCOS and prediabetes were based on Rotterdam and American Diabetes Association criteria, respectively.
Results: 100 women had prediabetes and 98 women had normoglycemia. The frequency of PCOS were 17% and 19.4% in prediabetes and control groups, respectively (p=0.715). The frequency of PCOS was 24% (6/25) in women with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) only, 22.2% (2/9) in women with impaired fasting glucose only, and 15.5% (9/58) in women who met the HbA1C criterion only. Prediabetes group had higher insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF–1) levels and lower anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) levels (p<0.05). Insulin was correlated with testosterone, antral follicle count, and ovarian volume only in prediabetes group (p<0.05). Mediation models showed that insulin increased testosterone both directly and indirectly through increasing IGF-1 (b=0.4, p=0.0006).
Conclusion: While the rate of PCOS was not increased in overall prediabetes group, a trend for an increased risk in IGT subgroup only was noteworthy. Positive correlation of insulin with testosterone, antral follicle count, and ovarian volume being only found in prediabetes group suggested that prediabetes might render ovaries susceptible to the PCOS-like changes. The lower AMH in prediabetes implied the toxic effects of even mild hyperglycemia on ovaries.

Diabetes mellitus is known to have late complications including micro vascular and macro vascular disease. This review focuses on another possible area of complication regarding diabetes; bone. Diabetes may affect bone via bone structure, bone density, and biochemical markers of bone turnover.The aim of the present review is to examine in vivo from humans on biochemical markers of bone turnover in diabetics compared to non-diabetics. Further more, the effect of glycemic control on bone markers and the similarities and differences of type 1- and type 2-diabetics regarding bone markers will be evaluated. A systematic literature search was conducted using PubMed, Embase, Cinahl, and SveMed+ with the search terms: “Diabetes mellitus,” “Diabetes mellitus type 1,” “Insulin dependent diabetes mellitus,” “Diabetes mellitus type 2,” “Non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus,” “Bone,” “Bone and Bones,” “Bone diseases,” “Bone turnover,” “Hemoglobin A Glycosylated,” and “HbA1C.” After removing duplicates from this search 1,188 records were screened by title and abstract and 75 records were assessed by full text for inclusion in the review. In the end 43 records were chosen. Bone formation and resorption markers are investigated as well as bone regulating systems. T1D is found to have lower osteocalcin and CTX, while osteo calcin and tartrate-resistant acid are found to be lower in T2D, and sclerostin is increased and collagen turnover markers altered. Other bone turnover markers do not seem to be altered in T1D or T2D. A major problem is the lack of histomorphometric studies in humans linking changes in turnover markers to actual changes in bone turnover and further research is needed to strengthen this link.
Keywords: diabetes mellitus, bone, bone turnover, markers of bone turnover, biochemical markers, glycemic contro

下肢静脉溃疡
下肢静脉性溃疡，俗称“老烂腿”，是下肢静脉疾病的常见临床表现。下肢静脉性溃疡常常反复发作，溃疡久治不愈，严重影响患者的正常生活，因此一旦出现下肢静脉性溃疡的现象，患者应该及时到正规医院的血管外科就医，以查清病因，对症下药。
糖尿病足骨髓炎（Diabetic foot osteomyelitis，DFO）与更高的踝上截肢率相关。尽管DFO有着很高的发生率和糟糕的预后，然而针对其治疗却缺乏高质量的证据。由于缺乏基于证据的指南，导致其治疗方法多种多样。作者咨询了14个外科专家，采用Delphi方法获得了关于DFO诊断、治疗和管理的专家共识。同时作者希望有更多有力的研究和更清晰的指南，以便能改善外科治疗的结果。

肉芽组织在伤口修复、愈合过程中起关键作用。伤口床中存在肉芽组织是伤口愈合的迹象,健康的肉芽组织表现为鲜红色或粉红色表面呈细颗粒状，柔软湿润，分泌物极少,无水肿,无痛觉，不易出血。
