Are sleep disturbances and low psychological well-being associated with an increased risk of autoimmune diabetes in adults . Results from the Nord-Trøndelag Health Study?
Our findings indicate that psychosocial factors influence the risk of autoimmune diabetes in adults, possibly through mechanisms related to insulin resistance. This supports the notion that the aetiology of autoimmune diabetes with adult onset in some respects is similar to that of type 2 diabetes.
Our study revealed that dialyzed patients with PH had a significantly higher level of airway FE(NO) as well as serum levels of acute phase reactive protein and cytokines, including IL-1beta, TNF-alpha and IL-6. A chronic inflammation might play an important role in the pathogenesis of PH in patients undergoing haemodialysis.
