    Abstract: Background: Effects of vitamin D on biomarkers of cardiometabolic disorders among obese individuals are highly variable between studies. Comparing the effects of vitamin D supplementation in metabolically healthy (MHO) vs. metabolically unhealthy (MUHO) obesity using metabolomics may yield mechanistic insights into the observed heterogeneity. Objective: To quantify small molecular changes shortly after vitamin D intervention in MHO and MUHO individuals with sub-optimal levels of vitamin D ( & lt;75 nmol/L) using a targeted metabolomics approach. Methods: In two randomized double-blind clinical trials, 110 MHO and 105 MUHO individuals were separately and randomly assigned to receive a daily dose of vitamin D supplement (4000 IU) or placebo. These MHO/MUHO phenotypes were defined using the Adult Treatment Panel-III criteria. Obesity-related metabolites (n=104) were measured at baseline and after four months of supplementation, using liquid chromatography coupled to a triple quadrupole mass spectrometry. Multiple linear regression models were fit to assess changes in metabolite levels, adjusting for appropriate covariates as well as controlling for multiple testing. Results: In the MUHO group (n=78), we identified ten metabolites (citrulline, acyl-lysophosphatidylcholines C16:0, C16:1, C18:0 and C18:1, diacyl-phosphatidylcholines C32:0, C34:1, C38:3 and C38:4 and sphingomyelin C40:4) that were significantly altered (P=4.9×10-4 to P=0.007) in response to vitamin D therapy. In the MHO group (n=82), no significant metabolite changes were observed after the intervention. Conclusion: Findings from our study contribute to the understanding of biological variation in Vitamin D metabolism across different obesity phenotypes. Upon successful validation, these insights can increase precision of clinical approaches to metabolic derangements in obesity. This study was registered at www.irct.ir as IRCT2015061522762N1.

    Abstract: Diabetes prevalence is increasing rapidly in rural areas of low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), but there are limited data on the performance of health systems in delivering equitable and effective care to rural populations. We therefore assessed rural-urban differences in diabetes care and control in LMICs. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We pooled individual-level data from nationally representative health surveys in 42 countries. We used Poisson regression models to estimate age-adjusted differences in the proportion of individuals with diabetes in rural versus urban areas achieving performance measures for the diagnosis, treatment, and control of diabetes and associated cardiovascular risk factors. We examined differences across the pooled sample, by sex, and by country. RESULTS The pooled sample from 42 countries included 840,110 individuals (35,404 with diabetes). Compared with urban populations with diabetes, rural populations had ∼15–30% lower relative risk of achieving performance measures for diabetes diagnosis and treatment. Rural populations with diagnosed diabetes had a 14% (95% CI 5–22%) lower relative risk of glycemic control, 6% (95% CI −5 to 16%) lower relative risk of blood pressure control, and 23% (95% CI 2–39%) lower relative risk of cholesterol control. Rural women with diabetes had lower achievement of performance measures relating to control than urban women, whereas among men, differences were small. CONCLUSIONS Rural populations with diabetes experience substantial inequities in the achievement of diabetes performance measures in LMICs. Programs and policies aiming to strengthen global diabetes care must consider the unique challenges experienced by rural populations.
