BackgroundsDiabetes is one of the most common metabolic disorders worldwide. This study aim was to provide detail analysis of diabetes research output and its trend in Iran as well as in the world and compare them.MethodsData was retrieved from PubMed database using a suitable search strategy and application of proper operator “AND”, “OR” and “NOT”. All English documents published from 2008 to 2012 were included. Meeting abstract, letter to the editor, guidelines, consensus and reviews were excluded. Obtained documents for Iran and world were categorized in eleven groups including diabetes management, education, paediatrics, nutrition, epidemiology, diabetes complications, stem cells, gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), psychiatrics, genetics and prevention and were compared.ResultsTotal number of DM publications was 59513 for world and 648 for Iran. Trend of DM publications was increasing during the 5 years with a growth rate of 22.5% for world and 23.4% for Iran. Contribution of Iran in the world diabetes output reached 1.08 in 2012. The most and the least number of DM documents were related to complications and preventions, respectively both in Iran and the world. Three leading countries with highest proportion of RCTs (randomized clinical trial) to their total DM publications were Italy, Germany and Iran.ConclusionThe most number of diabetes research was in the field of diabetes complication, management and genetics in the world as well as in Iran. During the 5-year period, despite of the world sanctions against Iran, diabetes research trend was increasing in Iran relatively parallel to the world research and sanction had no significant effect on Iran.

“…For example, genomic research has provided information that favored early diagnosis, more effective prevention programs, and treatment of diseases. 15 On the other side, social factors affect the biological dimension by epigenetic processes that regulate the expression or suppression of the genes. 16 Epigenetic regulation can represent a bridge between genetics and the environment.…”

“…17–19 It should not be forgotten that diseases also have social and environmental causes and that any attention to individual genetic variation should always consider the combined effects of genetic, environmental, and social factors in pathogenesis of diseases. 15 As regards aging, according to Wheeler and Kim, 20 genetic factors account for about a third of the variation in life expectancy, so most of the observed individual differences in lifespan would be explained by stochastic, social, and environmental factors. It seems that we are faced with a paradox: Aging is strongly determined by inheritable factors, whereas longevity and lifespan seem not to be so heritable.…”

In this work, attention is paid to 2 explanatory factors of successful aging. The first is material deprivation. There is growing evidence that poverty is associated with the onset of physical and mental disorders and, broadly, with aspects such as life satisfaction and happiness. The second factor is social deprivation. Social exclusion affects health due to lack of emotional and concrete support; moreover, participation in social activities among older people is associated with greater longevity and a lower risk of disability. The study describes the effect of material and social deprivation on depression (measured through the EURO-D scale) and quality of life (through CASP-12 scale), for individuals aged 50 and older in 14 European countries. Data is derived from Wave 5 of the SHARE project. To estimate the effect of material and social deprivation on outcomes and to determine whether it is moderated by the country in which people live, we apply 2 multi-group path models, respectively, for people aged 65 or younger and for those aged 66 years or older. Findings indicate that higher material and social deprivation is associated with greater levels of stress and worse quality of life. The effect of social deprivation would be stronger than that of material deprivation, and this result seems to be valid in all countries considered, although their intensity varies significantly between them.

“…Thus, it is beneficial to this review to answer the review question of this systematic review. This can be an advantage of qualitative research, but it is easy to neglect participants' perspectives within the context of their environment (Boccia et al., 2015 ). The themes adopted here combine the clinical and basic research expertise of each team member.…”

Parents' experiences on the combined use of continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion and real‐time continuous glucose monitoring to manage Type 1 diabetes in their children: A systematic review and meta‐synthesis of qualitative studies

The incidence of Type 1 diabetes (T1DM) has increased significantly in many countries worldwide (Manuwald et al., 2017). Although there was a lower incidence of T1DM in Chinese children, the incidence amongst children under 15 has been rising dramatically over the past two decades (Weng et al., 2018). It is estimated that there are over 4,000 new cases of T1DM in children annually in China (Weng et al., 2018). Without appropriate insulin treatment and optimal glycaemic control, the condition of children with T1DM can exacerbate rapidly within 24 hr, resulting in diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), permanent disability or even death (Cavan, 2018). Optimal diabetes management are important for children and adolescents with T1DM.
