We and others have previously documented increased resting and exercise-induced skeletal muscle blood flow in young subjects with Type I (insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus compared with healthy controls. Both NO and prostanoids are important regulators of vascular tone and may therefore contribute to this hyperaemia. The aim of the present study was to determine the contribution of NO and vasodilator prostanoids to this skeletal muscle hyperaemia in diabetes. We assessed the effects of infusion into the intrabrachial artery of the cyclo-oxygenase inhibitor acetylsalicylic acid (ASA; aspirin) and of the L-arginine analogue N(G)-monomethyl-L-arginine (L-NMMA) on skeLetal muscle blood flow in subjects with Type I diabetes mellitus (DM subjects) and control subjects. Blood flow was measured by venous occlusion plethysmography. Isotonic forearm exercise involved 2 min of wrist flexion and extension. Resting flow (forearm blood flow; FBF) was augmented in DM subjects, as was peak exercise-related blood flow (PFBF) and the volume repaid to the forearm 5 min after exercise (AUC 5, where AUC is area under the flow-time curve) (P<0.05), even when accounting for differences in basal flow. Infusion of L-NMMA reduced resting flow by 48% in controls (P<0.005) and by 12% in DM subjects (not significant). L-NMMA reduced PFBF and AUC 5 by 29% (P<0.05) and 39% (P<0.0005) respectively in controls, but had no significant effect on these parameters in DM subjects. Infusion of ASA reduced FBF, PFBF and AUC 5 in both DM (P<0.05) and control (P<0.05) subjects, but the magnitude of this reduction was greater in DM than in control subjects (ANOVA, P<0.05), even when differences in resting FBF were accounted for. Indeed, ASA eliminated the differences in FBF, PFBF and AUC 5 between DM and control subjects. Thus increased release of vasodilator prostanoids, rather than of NO, appears to account for skeletal muscle hyperaemia in Type I diabetes.

The aim of this study was to evaluate our 5 year experience in the surgery of umbilical (UH) and epigastric hernias (EH) on an ambulatory basis. Sixty three point seven of UH (88/138) and 68.4% of EH (13/19) could be successfully operated in our ambulatory unit. Morbid obesity, ASA III-IV and insulin dependent diabetes were exclusion criteria. After a preoperative local anesthesia infiltration with 1% lidocaine a repair was undertaken in all 101 patients under monitored anesthesia care. Most patients underwent a mesh hernioplasty as definite treatment. Only three patients could not be discharged on the day of operation. There has been a 2% recurrence rate in long term follow-up. These results demonstrate that two thirds of primary aponeurotic hernias can be satisfactorily operated on ambulatory basis.

The glycosphingolipid sulfatide is present in secretory granules and at the surface of pancreatic beta-cells, and antisulfatide antibodies (ASA; IgG1) are found in serum from the majority of patients with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes. Here we demonstrate that sulfatide produced a glucose- and concentration-dependent inhibition of insulin release from isolated rat pancreatic islets. This inhibition of insulin secretion was due to activation of ATP-sensitive K(+)-(K(ATP)) channels in single rat beta-cells. No effect of sulfatide was observed on whole-cell Ca(2+)-channel activity or glucose-induced elevation of cytoplasmic Ca(2+) concentration. It is interesting that sulfatide stimulated Ca(2+)-dependent exocytosis determined by capacitance measurements and depolarized-induced insulin secretion from islets exposed to diazoxide and high external KCl. The monoclonal sulfatide antibody Sulph I as well as ASA-positive serum reduced glucose-induced insulin secretion by inhibition of Ca(2+)-dependent exocytosis. Our data suggest that sulfatide is important for the control of glucose-induced insulin secretion and that both an increase and a decrease in the sulfatide content have an impact on the secretory capacity of the individual beta-cells.

This study sought to determine the frequency of aspirin resistance in an ambulatory population of patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D) or type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D). Platelet aggregation was assessed during the routine clinical evaluation of 203 ambulatory patients with diabetes (T1D, n = 92; T2D, n = 111) who were recommended aspirin for primary or secondary cardiovascular protection. Consecutively received laboratory samples were evaluated using the Ultegra Rapid Platelet Function Assay-ASA. Resistance to aspirin was detected in 18.7% of diabetic aspirin users, with similar rates in T1D (21.7%, p = 0.5) and T2D (16.2%, p = 0.6). Aspirin resistance was not related to age, glycohemoglobin, total cholesterol, or a history of cardiovascular disease. Female gender was a strong independent predictor of aspirin resistance in patients with T1D (p = 0.001). Platelet aggregation was correlated with high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol in the entire cohort (r = 0.21, p = 0.005) and in patients with T1D (r = 0.32, p = 0.04) or T2D (r = 0.21, p = 0.04), such that patients with low HDL cholesterol levels were more likely to be aspirin sensitive. The results suggest that aspirin can inhibit platelet aggregation in most patients with diabetes and is a reasonable first-line antiplatelet agent in patients with diabetes.

Ulcerative Colitis (UC) together with Crohn's disease (CD) belongs to inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). IBD is to date as frequent as Insulin Dependent Diabetes (IDDM) and is second to Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) in its chronicity. The majority (91%) of patients with UC have a mild to moderate disease course eligible for 5-ASA treatment. Poor adherence in UC is a well known phenomenon, which is associated with a 5-fold increased risk of relapse and increased health care costs. Web-based treatment solution with self-initiated 5-ASA treatment in UC based on the patient's pattern recognition of the disease course had not been published previously. The aims of the thesis were: 1) In a European evidence based consensus to assess the IBD patients' need for Quality of Health Care (QoHC); 2) To validate the influence of a Patient Educational Center (PEC) and a web-based treatment solution program, www.constant-care.dk, on patients' disease self-management, adherence, Quality of Life, and disease course after 1 year of self-initiated 5-ASA treatment. UC patients in a conventional out-patient setting were used as controls; 3) To validate two new quantitative rapid tests (RT scanning and HT photo) for Faecal Calprotectin (FC) measurement, and to assess whether HT photo can be useful as a home test to help the patients deciding on self-initiated treatment. The ECCO Consensus found evidence for optimising QoHC by "information"; "education", "benchmarking", and "psychological analysis", which could help to improve patient compliance, QoL, and to decrease depression and anxiety. UC patients, educated in the PEC, significantly improved the level of disease specific knowledge. Patient education and training on www.constant-care.dk, being validated on first 21 Danish patients and subsequently on 233 Danish and 100 Irish patients, showed that the new web guided approach was feasible, safe, and cost effective for the selected group of the patients included in the trial. Use of the web concept increased patients adherence to acute 5-ASA treatment, (p = 0.005) and community effectiveness up to 33%, improved Quality of Life, (p = 0.004), increased patients' ability to sufficient self-initiated treatment and reduce out-patient visits, (p < 0.0001). Patients' morbidity and depression remained unchanged. Median duration of relapse in the web-group was 59 days shorter than in the control-group possibly due to high dose of systemic 5-ASA treatment, (p < 0.0001). We found that the new rapid home test (HT photo) was accurate and comparable with the Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) with a 90% specificity and a 96% sensitivity. The rapid test can be useful in clinical settings concerning disease self-monitoring at home, which would decrease the use of endoscopy in some cases. The findings corresponded well with action plan for a European e-Health Area and could be a helpful tool to provide more efficient health care for UC patients. Widespread implementation of the "Constant-Care" is possible, but it may require a reshaping of the current health care for IBD patients both legally and economically. It may also empower patients in disease self-management and reduce dependency on doctors. Future long-term studies are needed to investigate, if this concept could possibly change the natural disease course.

Objective: The development of these updated clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) was commissioned by the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists (AACE), The Obesity Society, American Society of Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery, Obesity Medicine Association, and American Society of Anesthesiologists Boards of Directors in adherence with the AACE 2017 protocol for standardized production of CPGs, algorithms, and checklists. Methods: Each recommendation was evaluated and updated based on new evidence from 2013 to the present and subjective factors provided by experts. Results: New or updated topics in this CPG include: contextualization in an adiposity-based chronic disease complications-centric model, nuance-based and algorithm/checklist-assisted clinical decision-making about procedure selection, novel bariatric procedures, enhanced recovery after bariatric surgery protocols, and logistical concerns (including cost factors) in the current health-care arena. There are 85 numbered recommendations that have updated supporting evidence, of which 61 are revised and 12 are new. Noting that there can be multiple recommendation statements within a single numbered recommendation, there are 31 (13%) Grade A, 42 (17%) Grade B, 72 (29%) Grade C, and 101 (41%) Grade D recommendations. There are 858 citations, of which 81 (9.4%) are evidence level (EL) 1 (highest), 562 (65.5%) are EL 2, 72 (8.4%) are EL 3, and 143 (16.7%) are EL 4 (lowest). Conclusion: Bariatric procedures remain a safe and effective intervention for higher-risk patients with obesity. Clinical decision-making should be evidence based within the context of a chronic disease. A team approach to perioperative care is mandatory, with special attention to nutritional and metabolic issues.
