BACKGROUND: The endoscopically implanted duodenal-jejunal bypass liner (DJBL) is an attractive alternative to bariatric surgery for obese diabetic patients. This article aims to study dynamical aspects of the glycaemic profile that may influence DJBL effects. METHODS: Thirty patients underwent DJBL implantation and were followed for 10 months. Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) was performed before implantation and at month 10. Dynamical variables from CGM were measured: coefficient of variation of glycaemia, mean amplitude of glycaemic excursions (MAGE), detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA), % of time with glycaemia under 6.1 mmol/L (TU6.1), area over 7.8 mmol/L (AO7.8) and time in range. We analysed the correlation between changes in both anthropometric (body mass index, BMI and waist circumference) and metabolic (fasting blood glucose, FBG and HbA1c) variables and dynamical CGM-derived metrics and searched for variables in the basal CGM that could predict successful outcomes. RESULTS: There was a poor correlation between anthropometric and metabolic outcomes. There was a strong correlation between anthropometric changes and changes in glycaemic tonic control (∆BMI-∆TU6.1: rho = - 0.67, P < .01) and between metabolic outcomes and glycaemic phasic control (∆FBG-∆AO7.8: r = .60, P < .01). Basal AO7.8 was a powerful predictor of successful metabolic outcome (0.85 in patients with AO7.8 above the median vs 0.31 in patients with AO7.8 below the median: Chi-squared = 5.67, P = .02). CONCLUSIONS: In our population, anthropometric outcomes of DJBL correlate with improvement in tonic control of glycaemia, while metabolic outcomes correlate preferentially with improvement in phasic control. Assessment of basal phasic control may help in candidate profiling for DJBL implantation.

Although motor speech disorders represent an early and prominent clinical feature of multiple system atrophy (MSA), the potential usefulness of speech assessment as a diagnostic tool has not yet been explored. This cross-sectional study aimed to provide a comprehensive, objective description of motor speech function in the parkinsonian (MSA-P) and cerebellar (MSA-C) variants of MSA. Speech samples were acquired from 80 participants including 18 MSA-P, 22 MSA-C, 20 Parkinson's disease (PD), and 20 healthy controls. The accurate differential diagnosis of dysarthria subtypes was based on quantitative acoustic analysis of 14 speech dimensions. A mixed type of dysarthria involving hypokinetic, ataxic and spastic components was found in the majority of MSA patients independent of phenotype. MSA-P showed significantly greater speech impairment than PD, and predominantly exhibited harsh voice, imprecise consonants, articulatory decay, monopitch, excess pitch fluctuation and pitch breaks. MSA-C was dominated by prolonged phonemes, audible inspirations and voice stoppages. Inappropriate silences, irregular motion rates and overall slowness of speech were present in both MSA phenotypes. Speech features allowed discrimination between MSA-P and PD as well as between both MSA phenotypes with an area under curve up to 0.86. Hypokinetic, ataxic and spastic dysarthria components in MSA were correlated to the clinical evaluation of rigidity, cerebellar and bulbar/pseudobulbar manifestations, respectively. Distinctive speech alterations reflect underlying pathophysiology in MSA. Objective speech assessment may provide an inexpensive and widely applicable screening instrument for differentiation of MSA and PD from controls and among subtypes of MSA.

Pallidal deep-brain stimulation of the internal globus pallidus (GPi-DBS) is an effective treatment for dystonia. However, GPi-DBS may cause important stimulation-induced side effects such as hypokinetic dysarthria, which is particularly manifested by articulation rate abnormalities. However, little data regarding the effect of the location of the electrode and stimulation parameters for pallidal stimulation on articulation rate in dystonia is available. Speech data were acquired from 18 dystonic patients with GPi-DBS and 18 matched healthy controls. Each of dystonic patients was tested twice within 1 day in both the GPi-DBS ON and GPi-DBS OFF stimulation conditions. Compared to healthy controls, the decreased diadochokinetic rate and slower articulation rate in dystonic patients were observed in both stimulation conditions. No significant differences in speech rate measures between stimulation conditions were detected with no relation to contact localization and stimulation intensity. Our findings do not support the use articulation rate as a surrogate marker of stimulation-induced changes to the speech apparatus in dystonia.
