Abstract
The incidence of type 2 diabetes mellitus is growing in epidemic proportions and has become one of the most critical public health concerns. Cardiovascular complications associated with diabetes are the leading cause of morbidity and mortality. The cardiovascular diseases that accompany diabetes include angina, myocardial infarction, stroke, peripheral artery disease, and congestive heart failure. Among the various risk factors generated secondary to hyperglycemic situations, advanced glycation end products (AGEs) are one of the important targets for future diagnosis and prevention of diabetes. In the last decade, AGEs have drawn a lot of attention due to their involvement in diabetic patho-physiology. AGEs can be derived exogenously and endogenously through various pathways. These are a non-homogeneous, chemically diverse group of compounds formed non-enzymatically by condensation between carbonyl groups of reducing sugars and free amino groups of protein, lipids, and nucleic acid. AGEs mediate their pathological effects at the cellular and extracellular levels by multiple pathways. At the cellular level, they activate signaling cascades via the receptor for AGEs and initiate a complex series of intracellular signaling resulting in reactive oxygen species generation, inflammation, cellular proliferation, and fibrosis that may possibly exacerbate the damaging effects on cardiac functions in diabetics. AGEs also cause covalent modifications and cross-linking of serum and extracellular matrix proteins; altering their structure, stability, and functions. Early diagnosis of diabetes may prevent its progression to complications and decrease its associated comorbidities. In the present review, we recapitulate the role of AGEs as a crucial mediator of hyperglycemia-mediated detrimental effects in diabetes-associated complications. Furthermore, this review presents an overview of future perspectives for new therapeutic interventions to ameliorate cardiovascular complications in diabetes.

[PMID: 37547584 PMCID: PMC10401445 DOI: 10.4239/wjd.v14.i7.995] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/30/2023] [Revised: 04/08/2023] [Accepted: 04/27/2023] [Indexed: 07/12/2023] Open
Abstract
Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) are a heterogeneous collection of compounds formed during industrial processing and home cooking through a sequence of nonenzymatic glycation reactions. The modern western diet is full of heat-treated foods that contribute to AGE intake. Foods high in AGEs in the contemporary diet include processed cereal products. Due to industrialization and marketing strategies, restaurant meals are modified rather than being traditionally or conventionally cooked. Fried, grilled, baked, and boiled foods have the greatest AGE levels. Higher AGE-content foods include dry nuts, roasted walnuts, sunflower seeds, fried chicken, bacon, and beef. Animal proteins and processed plant foods contain furosine, acrylamide, heterocyclic amines, and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural. Furosine (2-furoil-methyl-lysine) is an amino acid found in cooked meat products and other processed foods. High concentrations of carboxymethyl-lysine, carboxyethyl-lysine, and methylglyoxal-O are found in heat-treated nonvegetarian foods, peanut butter, and cereal items. Increased plasma levels of AGEs, which are harmful chemicals that lead to age-related diseases and physiological aging, diabetes, and autoimmune/inflammatory rheumatic diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus and rheumatoid arthritis. AGEs in the pathophysiology of metabolic diseases have been linked to individuals with diabetes mellitus who have peripheral nerves with high amounts of AGEs and diabetes has been linked to increased myelin glycation. Insulin resistance and hyperglycemia can impact numerous human tissues and organs, leading to long-term difficulties in a number of systems and organs, including the cardiovascular system. Plasma AGE levels are linked to all-cause mortality in individuals with diabetes who have fatal or nonfatal coronary artery disease, such as ventricular dysfunction. High levels of tissue AGEs are independently associated with cardiac systolic dysfunction in diabetic patients with heart failure compared with diabetic patients without heart failure. It is widely recognized that AGEs and oxidative stress play a key role in the cardiovascular complications of diabetes because they both influence and are impacted by oxidative stress. All chronic illnesses involve protein, lipid, or nucleic acid modifications including crosslinked and nondegradable aggregates known as AGEs. Endogenous AGE formation or dietary AGE uptake can result in additional protein modifications and stimulation of several inflammatory signaling pathways. Many of these systems, however, require additional explanation because they are not entirely obvious. This review summarizes the current evidence regarding dietary sources of AGEs and metabolism-related complications associated with AGEs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetic microvascular complications are a major cause of morbidity and are related to glycaemic control and cardiovascular risk factors. AIMS We sought to determine the association of microvascular complications in relation to control of glycemia, blood pressure and lipids in T2DM patients attending secondary care in Qatar. METHODS This is a cross-sectional study undertaken in patients with T2DM attending Qatar's National Diabetes Centres. Patients underwent assessment of glycemia, blood pressure and lipids and prevalence of diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN), retinopathy and microalbuminuria. RESULTS We included 1114 subjects aged 52.1 ± 11.3 years with a duration of diabetes 10.0 ± 7.6 years and had a prevalence of 25.8% for DPN, 34.3% for painful DPN, 36.8% for microalbuminuria and 25.1% for retinopathy. Patients who achieved an HbA1c ≤ 7.0% compared to >7% had a significantly lower prevalence of DPN (P < 0.01), painful DPN (P < 0.01), retinopathy (P < 0.01) and microalbuminuria (P < 0.007). Patients who achieved a systolic BP ≤ 140 mmHg compared to >140 mmHg had a significantly lower prevalence of DPN (P < 0.001), painful DPN (P < 0.001), retinopathy (P < 0.001) and microalbuminuria (P < 0.001). Patients who achieved an LDL ≤2.6 mmol/l compared to >2.6 mmol/l had a significantly higher prevalence of DPN (P < 0.03), but no difference in other outcomes. There was no difference in microvascular complications between those who achieved a HDL-C ≥ 1.02 mmol/l, and among those who achieved triglycerides ≤1.7 mmol/l. CONCLUSIONS Optimal control of glycemia and blood pressure, but not lipids is associated with a lower prevalence of diabetic microvascular complications.

Abstract
The occurrence and development of cardiovascular complications are predominantly responsible for the increased morbidity and mortality observed in patients with diabetes. Oxidative stress under hyperglycemia is currently considered the initial link to diabetic cardiovascular complications and a key node for the prevention and treatment of diabetes-related fatal cardiovascular events. Numerous studies have indicated that the common upstream pathway in the context of oxidative stress in the cardiovascular system under diabetic conditions is the interaction of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) with their receptors (RAGEs). Therefore, a further understanding of the relationship between oxidative stress and AGEs is of great significance for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular complications in patients with diabetes. In this review, we will briefly summarize the recent research advances in diabetes with an emphasis on oxidative stress and its association with AGEs in diabetic cardiovascular complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Primary and secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease is of utmost importance in the management of patients with diabetes. OBJECTIVES We studied a group of Iranian patients with type2 diabetes to provide an overview of the current status of secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease in the Middle East. METHODS This is a cross-sectional study of 2029 Patients with type2 diabetes including 323 patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) were recruited. Achievement of goals in HbA1c (A), blood pressure (B) and LDL-cholesterol(C) was assessed. RESULTS The study showed 25.3% of CAD positive patients achieved HbA1c <7% compared to 30% in CAD negative patients. The achievement of blood pressure ≤140/90 mmHg was 53.2% and 52.8% in CAD positive and CAD negative patients respectively. There was no difference in the achievement of all three ABC goals between the two groups (p = 0.733). After logistic regression analysis, history of hypertension had the highest odds ratio for CAD. CONCLUSION Although ABC control has an important impact on the prevention of cardiovascular outcomes, the ideal goal needs further efforts to be achieved.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to assess the control of blood glucose, blood pressure (BP), serum low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c), and other cardiovascular disease risk factors among patients with type II diabetes in a primary-care setting in Beijing. We performed a cross-sectional, multi-center survey of 4056 patients with type II diabetes aged ≥40 years. In total, 22.6% were current smokers, 10.8% often drank alcohol, 29.0% were obese, and 67.4% participated in adequate levels of physical activity. About 70% of patients reported comorbid hypertension or dyslipidemia. Of these, 70.8% were being treated for diabetes and 79.3% for hypertension; 20.5% were receiving statins and 28.5% aspirin. The proportions of patients achieving their therapeutic target were 52.6% for fasting plasma glucose, 58.2% for BP, and 33.0% for LDL-c. Only 11.1% achieved all three goals. Among 1960 (48.3%) patients with a record of hemoglobin A1C, 27.8% achieved the hemoglobin A1C target (<6.5%). These data suggest that blood glucose and BP were more likely to be well controlled than LDL-c, the likelihood of control of multiple risk factors is low, and that the statin and aspirin use should be intensified in patients with a substantial risk of cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Clinical practice guidelines recommend achieving concentrations of LDL cholesterol less than 100 mg/dl (and in some cases less than 70 mg/dl) in patients with coronary artery disease and/or diabetes mellitus type 2 (DM2). We have examined the compliance with these objectives in patients treated in Spain with these conditions. METHODS Cross-sectional epidemiological study. Data were obtained during the visit of the study or, in their absence, based on data contained in the medical record by 874 doctors of the 17 autonomous communities in Spain. Demographic information, risk factors, cardiovascular and prescribed treatments were collected. RESULTS In the final analysis 6.988 (62.7% male) patients were included. 2586 (37%) had coronary disease, 2654 (38%) DM2 and 1748 (25%) both conditions. 65% had metabolic syndrome. Vascular risk factors median number was 4. 57% and 86% showed a concentration of LDL cholesterol >100 and >70 mg/dl respectively. The proportion patients with LDL concentration >100 mg/dl was 4% greater in the DM2 (62.4%) than in coronary patients (57.1%; p0.0001). Concentration of triglycerides >150 mg/dl was higher in patients with DM2 (50.5%) than in coronary patients (43.5%; p0.0001). The proportion of patients with LDL>70 mg/dl was similar in the coronary group and in the DM2 Group (88.4% and 87.0%, respectively). More than half of patients with coronary heart disease (57.5%) or DM2 (55.7%) showed inadequate levels of HDL (<40 mg/dl men; <50 mg/dl women). CONCLUSIONS More than a half of patients with diabetes mellitus and/or coronary artery disease enrolled in the CODIMET study do not achieve the recommended LDL cholesterol target for high cardiovascular risk patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Patients with stable coronary heart disease (CHD) and atherogenic dyslipidemia (AD) have a high-risk of recurrence and are those who derive most benefit from treatment with lipid-lowering agents. The aim of this study was to examine the prevalence of AD in patients with stable coronary heart disease and to investigate associated factors. METHODS Cross-sectional study involving 7823 subjects admitted for a coronary event between 6 months and 10 years previously. AD was considered to be the concurrent presence of low HDL-cholesterol (<1.03 mmol/L [40 mg/dL] in males, <1.29 mmol/L [50 mg/dL] in females) and elevated triglycerides (≥1.7 mmol/L [150 mg/dL]). RESULTS Mean age was 65.3 (10.1) years, 73.6% were males and 80.3% were receiving treatment with statins. Low HDL-cholesterol was observed in 26.3% of the participants, 39.7% had elevated triglyceride concentration and 13.0% had AD. The percentage of AD in patients with criteria for metabolic syndrome was 30.9%. Factors associated directly and independently with the presence of AD in the multivariate analysis were female sex, history of coronary syndrome without ST elevation or coronary revascularization, presence of atrial fibrillation, body mass index, LDL-cholesterol, systolic blood pressure and blood glucose levels, while age and glomerular filtration rate were significantly and inversely associated with AD. CONCLUSION A significant proportion of patients with coronary disease could benefit from interventions aimed at increasing HDL-cholesterol and reducing triglycerides.

Abstract
AIMS Outcomes of patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with drug-eluting stents (DES) and bare metal stents (BMS) have not been evaluated separately for specific dual and triple antiplatelet agent use. The purpose of this meta-analysis was to determine whether triple antiplatelet therapy (combination of clopidogrel, aspirin and cilostazol) has any advantage in efficacy compared with standard dual antiplatelet therapy (aspirin and clopidogrel) in patients undergoing PCI. METHODS Electronic and printed sources were searched till May 2008 for randomized controlled clinical trials (RCTs) of cilostazol in combination with aspirin and clopidogrel. Pooled weighted mean difference (WMD) and pooled odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated. RESULTS A total of four RCTs including 1457 patients with a median follow-up period of 6-9 months were included in the analysis. The rates of major adverse cardiac and/or cerebrovascular events (MACE/MACCE), stent thrombosis and bleeding were not significantly different between triple and dual antiplatelet therapy groups. Pooled analysis showed that cilostazol was associated with significantly decreased incidence of in segment restenosis (ISR) (OR 0.51, 95% CI 0.38, 0.68; P < 0.00001), increased minimum luminal diameter (MLD) (WMD 0.16, 95% CI 0.10, 0.22; P < 0.00001) for both DES and BMS and also individually. However, the rates of target vessel revascularization (OR 0.45, 95% CI 0.25, 0.83; P = 0.01 and late lumen loss (pooled WMD 0.14, 95% CI 0.2, 0.07; P = 0.001) were decreased significantly only in the DES group receiving triple therapy. CONCLUSIONS Cilostazol appears to be effective in reducing the rates of ISR without any significant benefit for MACE/MACCE.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Many studies on diabetes have demonstrated that an intensive control of glycaemia and the main associated risk factors (hypertension, dislipidaemia, obesity and smoking) reduce cardiovascular morbi-mortality. Different scientific societies have proposed a multifactorial approach to type 2 diabetes.The objective of this study was to identify the degree of control of glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) and of cardiovascular risk factors in type 2 diabetic patients, using the GedapS 2004 guidelines, and to analyse the type and intensity of drug treatment. METHODS This cross-sectional, multicentre, epidemiological study was conducted in a primary care setting in Vallès Occidental South, Catalonia. Data were collected of 393 patients aged 18 and above who were diagnosed with diabetes mellitus type 2. Biodemographic and clinical data, cardiovascular risk factors, associated cardiovascular disease, and treatment were assessed. Descriptive and multivariable analysis with logistic regression was realized. RESULTS A total of 392 patients with a mean age of 66.8 years (SD = 10.6) (45.4% male patients) were analyzed. The duration of diabetes was 8.4 years (SD = 7.6). The degree of multifactorial control of risk factors was only 2.6%, although in more than 50% individual cardiovascular risk factor was controlled, except for LDL cholesterol (40.6%) and systolic blood pressure (29.6%). Furthermore, only 13.0% of subjects had an optimal BMI, 27.5% an optimal waist circumference. Treatment for diabetes was prescribed in 82.7% of patients, for hypertension 70.7%, for dyslipidaemia 47.2% and 40.1% were taking antiplatelets. CONCLUSION Over 50% of type 2 diabetic patients presented optimal control of the majority of individual cardiovascular risk factors, although the degree of multifactorial control of diabetes was insufficient (2.6%) and should be improved. Drug treatment can be intensified using a larger number of combinations, particularly in patients with target organ damage and associated clinical cardiovascular disease.
