Control glucémico a través del ejercicio físico en pacientes con diabetes mellitus tipo 2; revisión sistemática

Introducción: En España, cerca del 14% de la población es diabética y el 95% corresponde a DM2. Un pobre control glucémico provoca un aumento de la morbilidad y mortalidad. Tres son los pilares en el tratamiento de la DM2: la dieta, la medicación y el ejercicio físico, sin embargo, el potencial de la prescripción de entrenamiento físico no ha sido totalmente explotado. Objetivo: Analizar el efecto de las distintas modalidades de ejercicio físico (AE, RT, Combo, INT) en el control glucémico en pacientes con diabetes mellitus tipo 2. Métodos: La búsqueda bibliográfica se realizó en 3 bases de datos electrónicas (Pubmed, Scopus y Proquest), incluyendo publicaciones desde enero de 2011 hasta mayo de 2014, que realizaran la intervención con AE, RT, Combo o INT, y que midieran la glucemia a través de la glucosa capilar, CGMS o HbA1c. Resultados: Del total de 386 artículos encontrados, 14 cumplieron los criterios de inclusión. Estos artículos fueron clasificados atendiendo a la modalidad de ejercicio físico de la intervención (AE, RT, Combo, INT), y en función de si analizaban el control glucémico como consecuencia del entrenamiento a largo plazo o tras una sesión de entrenamiento. Conclusiones: El AE, RT, Combo e INT muestran eficacia en el control glucémico tanto en el entrenamiento prolongado como en las 24-48h post-entrenamiento. Es necesaria la prescripción de un entrenamiento estructurado con una frecuencia, volumen e intensidad determinados para lograr beneficios en el control glucémico. El combo es la modalidad que obtiene mejores resultados a través del entrenamiento a largo plazo.

Intervenções de enfermagem à pessoa com Diabetes Mellitus tipo 2 em cuidados de saúde primários: elaboração de uma norma de orientação clínica

Enquadramento: Vários estudos apontam que em contexto de Cuidados de Saúde Primários (CSP), programas organizados de cuidados de enfermagem podem promover significativamente melhores resultados de saúde em pessoas com diabetes. O Programa Nacional de Prevenção e Controlo da Diabetes estabelece, como objetivo, uniformizar as práticas profissionais em prol de uma efetiva qualidade clínica, organizacional e satisfação das pessoas com diabetes. A Federação Internacional de Diabetes e a OMS enfatizam a necessidade de os programas nacionais de saúde implementarem guias de boas práticas baseadas em evidência para a prevenção e controlo da DM. Tendo como principal problema a inexistência de uma orientação específica que norteie as intervenções a prestar na consulta de enfermagem à pessoa com Diabetes Mellitus tipo 2 (DM2) em CSP o presente trabalho teve por objetivos: (I) Consensualizar intervenções que devem ser realizadas pelos enfermeiros na consulta à pessoa com DM2 em CSP, (II) Elaborar uma Norma de Orientação Clinica (NOC) baseada em evidência científica para orientação da consulta de enfermagem à pessoa com DM2 em CSP. Metodologia: Foi realizado um Painel de Delphi, para a obtenção de consenso, acerca das intervenções a serem realizadas na consulta de enfermagem à pessoa com DM2 em CSP. Para suportar em evidência científica as intervenções obtidas por consenso e, consequentemente, elaborar a NOC utilizámos o Processo ADAPTE, que permite a adaptação de Normas já existentes através de uma abordagem sistemática para a aprovação e/ou modificação destas1. Resultados: Elaboração de uma NOC adaptada baseada em evidência científica, para suporte à consulta de enfermagem à pessoa com DM2 em CSP.

Tissue Doppler imaging for evaluation of myocardial function in patients with diabetes mellitus

Purpose of review Heart failure and diabetes mellitus are frequently associated, and diabetes appears to potentiate the clinical presentation of heart failure related to other causes. The purpose of this review is to examine recent advances in the application of tissue Doppler imaging for the assessment of diabetic heart disease. Recent findings Recent studies have documented that both myocardial systolic and diastolic abnormalities can be identified in apparently healthy patients with diabetes and no overt cardiac dysfunction. Interestingly, these are disturbances of longitudinal function, with compensatory increases of radial function-suggesting primary involvement of the subendocardium, which is a hallmark of myocardial ischemia. Despite this, there is limited evidence that diabetic microangiopathy is responsible-with reduced myocardial blood volume rather than reduced resting flow, and at least some evidence suggesting a normal increment of tissue velocity with stress. Finally, a few correlative studies have shown association of diabetic myocardial disease with poor glycemic control, while angiotensin converting enzyme inhibition may be protective. Summary Tissue Doppler imaging (and the related technique of strain rate imaging) appears to be extremely effective for the identification of subclinical LV dysfunction in diabetic patients It is hoped that the recognition of this condition will prompt specific therapy to prevent the development of overt LV dysfunction.

Canine and Feline Diabetes Mellitus: Nature or Nurture?

There is evidence for the role of genetic and environmental factors in feline and canine diabetes. Type 2 diabetes is the most common form of diabetes in cats. Evidence for genetic factors in feline diabetes includes the overrepresentation of Burmese cats with diabetes. Environmental risk factors in domestic or Burmese cats include advancing age, obesity, male gender, neutering, drug treatment, physical inactivity, and indoor confinement. High-carbohydrate diets increase blood glucose and insulin levels and may predispose cats to obesity and diabetes. Low-carbohydrate, high-protein diets may help prevent diabetes in cats at risk such as obese cats or lean cats with underlying low insulin sensitivity. Evidence exists for a genetic basis and altered immune response in the pathogenesis of canine diabetes. Seasonal effects on the incidence of diagnosis indicate that there are environmental influences on disease progression. At least 50% of diabetic dogs have type 1 diabetes based on present evidence of immune destruction of P-cells. Epidemiological factors closely match those of the latent autoimmune diabetes of adults form of human type 1 diabetes. Extensive pancreatic damage, likely from chronic pancreatitis, causes similar to28% of canine diabetes cases. Environmental factors such as feeding of high-fat diets are potentially associated with pancreatitis and likely play a role in the development of pancreatitis in diabetic dogs. There are no published data showing that overt type 2 diabetes occurs in dogs or that obesity is a risk factor for canine diabetes. Diabetes diagnosed in a bitch during either pregnancy or diestrus is comparable to human gestational diabetes.

Comparison of specificity of quantitative myocardial contrast echocardiography for diagnosis of coronary artery disease in patients with versus without diabetes mellitus

Impaired coronary flow reserve is widely reported in diabetes mellitus (DM) but its effect on myocardial contrast echocardiography (MCE) is unclear. We sought to identify whether DM influences the accuracy of qualitative and quantitative assessment of coronary artery disease (CAD) using MCE in 83 patients who underwent coronary angiography (60 men, 27 with DM; 56 +/- 11 years;). Destruction replenishment imaging was performed at rest and after combined dipyridamole-exercise stress testing. Ischemia was identified by the development of new wall motion abnormalities, qualitative MCE (new perfusion defects apparent 1 second after flash during hyperemia), and quantitative MCE (myocardial blood flow reserve < 2.0 in the anterior circulation). Qualitative and quantitative assessment of perfusion was feasible in 100% and 92% of patients, respectively. Significant left anterior descending coronary stenosis (> 50% by quantitative angiography) was present in 28 patients (including 8 with DM); 55 patients had no CAD (including 19 with DM). The myocardial blood flow reserve was reduced in patients with coronary stenosis compared with those with no CAD (1.6 +/- 1.1 vs 3.8 +/- 2.5, p < 0.001). Among patients with no CAD, those with DM had an impaired flow reserve compared with control patients without DM (2.4 +/- 1.0 vs 4.5 +/- 2.8, p = 0.003). In conclusion, DM significantly influenced the quantitative, but not the qualitative, assessment of MCE, with a marked reduction in specificity in patients with DM. (c) 2005 Elsevier Inc.

The relative benefits of endurance and strength training on the metabolic factors and muscle function of people with type 2 diabetes mellitus

Objective: To compare the effects of a 4-month strength training (ST) versus aerobic endurance training (ET) program on metabolic control, muscle strength, and cardiovascular endurance in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D). Design: Randomized controlled trial. Setting: Large public tertiary hospital. Participants: Twenty-two T21) participants (I I men, I I women; mean age +/- standard error, 56.2 +/- 1.1 y; diabetes duration, 8.8 +/- 3.5y) were randomized into a 4-month ST program and 17 T2D participants (9 men, 8 women; mean age, 57.9 +/- 1.4y; diabetes duration, 9.2 +/- 1.7y) into a 4-month ET program. Interventions: ST (up to 6 sets per muscle group per week) and ET (with an intensity of maximal oxygen consumption of 60% and a volume beginning at 15min and advancing to a maximum of 30min 3X/wk) for 4 months. Main Outcome Measures: Laboratory tests included determinations of blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin (Hb A(1c)), insulin, and lipid assays. Results: A significant decline in Hb A, was only observed in the ST group (8.3% +/- 1.7% to 7.1% +/- 0.2%, P=.001). Blood glucose (204 +/- 16mg/dL to 147 +/- 8mg/dL, P <.001) and insulin resistance (9.11 +/- 1.51 to 7.15 +/- 1.15, P=.04) improved significantly in the ST group, whereas no significant changes were observed in the ET group. Baseline levels of total cholesterol (207 +/- 8mg/dL to 184 +/- 7mg/dL, P <.001), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (120 +/- 8mg/dL to 106 +/- 8mg/dL, P=.001), and triglyceride levels (229 +/- 25mg/dL to 150 +/- 15mg/dL, P=.001) were significantly reduced and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (43 +/- 3mg/dL to 48 +/- 2mg/dL, P=.004) was significantly increased in the ST group; in contrast, no such changes were seen in the ET group. Conclusions: ST was more effective than ET in improving glycemic control. With the added advantage of an improved lipid profile, we conclude that ST may play an important role in the treatment of T2D.
