Effect of glucose variability on the mortality of adults aged 75 years and over during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic Open
Background To our knowledge, only one study has examined the association between glucose variability (GV) and mortality in the elderly population with diabetes. GV was assessed by HbA1c, and a J-shaped curve was observed in the relationshi…

Validation of Diabetes Prediction Scores: Does adding a high risk for depression increase the area under the curve? Open
Background Diabetes risk scores include age, waist circumference, body mass index, hypertension, use of blood pressure medication, and metabolic and lifestyle variables. Although patients with major depressive disorder have a higher risk o…

View article: Prospective population-based observational study to estimate the incidence of T2DM in a metropolitan population in the north of Madrid (Spain) and to determine the effect of baseline glycaemic status through an explanatory Cox model. SPRINDIAP-1 study (Secondary PRevention of INcident DIAbetes in patients with Prediabetes)
Prospective population-based observational study to estimate the incidence of T2DM in a metropolitan population in the north of Madrid (Spain) and to determine the effect of baseline glycaemic status through an explanatory Cox model. SPRINDIAP-1 study (Secondary PRevention of INcident DIAbetes in patients with Prediabetes) Open
Background T2DM (Type 2 Diabetes mellitus) is preceded by basal glycaemic states (BGS) such as normoglycaemia (NG) or pre-T2DM, including impaired fasting glucose (IFG); impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) or both (IFG-IGT). A better understa…

AB0722 ULTRASOUND HALO COUNT IN THE DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS OF ATHEROSCLEROSIS AND LARGE VESSEL GIANT CELL ARTERITIS Open
Background Giant cell arteritis (GCA) is the most common vasculitis in the elderly and large vessel involvement occurs in up to 50% of cases. Otherwise, atherosclerosis is frequent in older patients; therefore, ultrasound (US) diagnosis of…

Ultrasound halo count in the differential diagnosis of atherosclerosis and large vessel giant cell arteritis Open
Objective To determine the diagnostic discriminant validity between large vessel giant cell arteritis (LV-GCA) and atherosclerosis using ultrasound (US) intima-media thickness (IMT) measurements. Methods We included 44 patients with LV-GCA…

Higher Arm Versus Lower Arm Systolic Blood Pressure and Cardiovascular Outcomes: a Meta-Analysis of Individual Participant Data From the INTERPRESS-IPD Collaboration Open
BACKGROUND: Guidelines recommend measuring blood pressure (BP) in both arms, adopting the higher arm readings for diagnosis and management. Data to support this recommendation are lacking. We evaluated associations of higher and lower arm …

Glycemic variability and all-cause mortality in a large prospective southern European cohort of patients with differences in glycemic status Open
Background Few studies have analyzed the relationship between glucose variability (GV) and adverse health outcomes in patients with differences in glycemic status. The present study tests the hypothesis that GV predicts all-cause mortality…
