    Abstract: Diabetes Technology Society (DTS) convened a meeting about the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Digital Health Software Precertification Program on August 28, 2018. Forty-eight attendees participated from clinical and academic endocrinology (both adult and pediatric), nursing, behavioral health, engineering, and law, as well as representatives of FDA, National Institutes of Health (NIH), National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA), and industry. The meeting was intended to provide ideas to FDA about their plan to launch a Digital Health Software Precertification Program. Attendees discussed the four components of the plan: (1) excellence appraisal and certification, (2) review pathway determination, (3) streamlined premarket review process, and (4) real-world performance. The format included (1) introductory remarks, (2) a program overview presentation from FDA, (3) roundtable working sessions focused on each of the Software Precertification Program’s four components, (4) presentations reflecting the discussions, (5) questions to and answers from FDA, and (6) concluding remarks. The meeting provided useful information to the diabetes technology community and thoughtful feedback to FDA.

    Abstract: A composite metric for the quality of glycemia from continuous glucose monitor (CGM) tracings could be useful for assisting with basic clinical interpretation of CGM data. Methods: We assembled a data set of 14-day CGM tracings from 225 insulin-treated adults with diabetes. Using a balanced incomplete block design, 330 clinicians who were highly experienced with CGM analysis and interpretation ranked the CGM tracings from best to worst quality of glycemia. We used principal component analysis and multiple regressions to develop a model to predict the clinician ranking based on seven standard metrics in an Ambulatory Glucose Profile: very low–glucose and low-glucose hypoglycemia; very high–glucose and high-glucose hyperglycemia; time in range; mean glucose; and coefficient of variation. Results: The analysis showed that clinician rankings depend on two components, one related to hypoglycemia that gives more weight to very low-glucose than to low-glucose and the other related to hyperglycemia that likewise gives greater weight to very high-glucose than to high-glucose. These two components should be calculated and displayed separately, but they can also be combined into a single Glycemia Risk Index (GRI) that corresponds closely to the clinician rankings of the overall quality of glycemia (r = 0.95). The GRI can be displayed graphically on a GRI Grid with the hypoglycemia component on the horizontal axis and the hyperglycemia component on the vertical axis. Diagonal lines divide the graph into five zones (quintiles) corresponding to the best (0th to 20th percentile) to worst (81st to 100th percentile) overall quality of glycemia. The GRI Grid enables users to track sequential changes within an individual over time and compare groups of individuals. Conclusion: The GRI is a single-number summary of the quality of glycemia. Its hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia components provide actionable scores and a graphical display (the GRI Grid) that can be used by clinicians and researchers to determine the glycemic effects of prescribed and investigational treatments.

    Abstract: Polyneuropathy, organomegaly, endocrinopathy, monoclonal plasma cell disorder, skin changes (POEMS) syndrome is a multisystem disease associated with underlying plasma cell neoplasm. Here, we present two cases of POEMS syndrome that manifested on magnetic resonance neurography as an increasing bone mass with cortical disruption, direct invading nerve roots and lumbar gluteal muscles. These features have not been previously reported. We also report a case with diffuse hypertrophy and enhancement of the brachial and lumbosacral plexus, which mimics the most common chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy. Moreover, we detected perineurium effusions in the plexus, coupled with a variety of myofascitis and atrophy in denervated muscle. The case series is of concern to atypical magnetic resonance imaging findings of POEMS syndrome in the bone and peripheral nerve system as critical attacked target organs, which would be facilitating diagnosis.

    Abstract: The present study validated the bifactor model of the Material Values Scale (MVS) and examined the association between materialism and subjective well-being (SWB). Study 1 utilized a material values questionnaire that 1673 college students completed. Confirmatory factor analysis results indicated that the bifactor model of the MVS had a better fit than other models. Likewise, the findings were replicated in Study 2 using a larger sample size ( N = 2627). Through structural equation modeling, only the general and specific factors of success were found to be negative predictors of SWB. Our study both provides a methodological reference for measuring the MVS and compensates for the limitations of MVS measurement results.

    Abstract: Inflammatory processes that occur in subjects with obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome may contribute to progressive atherosclerosis and increased cardiovascular and cerebrovascular morbidity. Meteorin-like protein, which is also known as subfatin, is transcribed similarly to meteorin protein. Meteorin-like alleviates skeletal muscle inflammation. We aimed to investigate the serum meteorin-like status of obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome subjects and determine the potential link between serum meteorin-like concentration with the presence and severity of obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome. Methods The obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome group was composed of 207 obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome subjects diagnosed via polysomnography. A total of 106 healthy volunteers without clinical symptoms of obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome were recruited as the control group. Blood samples were obtained from all subjects to evaluate the serum meteorin-like concentrations via enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay method. Results Decreased serum meteorin-like concentration was found in obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome subjects compared with the controls. Serum meteorin-like concentration was associated with a reduced OR for having obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome (OR 0.97, 95% CI 0.961 to 0.98; P  〈  0.001). Severe obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome subjects showed significantly lower meteorin-like concentration compared with mild and moderate cases. Moderate subjects exhibited decreased serum meteorin-like concentration compared with mild cases. Pearson correlation analysis revealed that serum meteorin-like concentration was negatively correlated with obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome severity. Serum meteorin-like concentration negatively correlated with body mass index, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, apnoea–hypopnea index, number of arousals, hypopnoea and apnoea in subjects with obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome. Conclusion Serum meteorin-like concentration is inversely correlated with the presence and severity of obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome.

    Abstract: Toexplore the correlation between blood pressure in the supine position and target organ damage in subjects over 60 years of age. Methods In 2444 individuals, we investigated the association of systolic blood pressure (SBP) in the supine position with the target organ damage indices microalbuminuria (ALBU), brachial–ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV), and carotid intima–media thickness (IMT). Supine hypertension (SH) is defined as systolic blood pressure ≥ 140 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure ≥ 90 mmHg. Subjects were assigned to either the SH group (1275 cases) or the non-SH group (1169 cases). Results The levels of ALBU, baPWV, and IMT, as well as the percentage of participants with ALBU  〉  30 mg/L, baPWV ≥ 1400 cm/s, and IMT ≥ 1 mm, were significantly higher in the SH group than in the non-SH group. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that SH was an independent risk factor for baPWV and IMT, but the relationship with ALBU was not statistically significant after correction for confounding factors. Conclusions SH is a risk factor for target organ damage, as expressed by the indices baPWV and IMT. The association of SH with kidney damage requires further study.
