Poor Glycemic Control in Type 1 Diabetes Tied to Fracture Risk
Fracture risk up with T2DM and current use of rosiglitazone, pioglitazone regardless of glycemic control.
Glycemic Control
Clinical Indicators of Risk for Addison Disease in Patients With T1D
Treatment of thyroid disease, severe infections, glucagon prescriptions, and diabetic retinopathy occur more frequently in individuals with type 1 diabetes who are subsequently diagnosed with Addison disease.
Low-Risk Patients With T2D May Be Self-Testing Blood Glucose Too Often
Patients with stable type 2 diabetes may be unnecessarily self-monitoring blood glucose levels despite this practice being recognized as a low-value service.
Type 1 Diabetes Confers Extra Risk for Autoimmune Diseases
Type 1 diabetes predisposes children and adults to autoimmune diseases, which can impair glucose metabolism and interfere with insulin therapy.
Plant-Based Diets Beneficial for Adults With Type 2 Diabetes
For adults with type 2 diabetes, plant-based diets can improve psychological health, quality of life, hemoglobin A1c levels.
Better Glycemic Control With Closed-Loop Insulin Delivery
Day-and-night hybrid closed-loop insulin delivery improves glucose control compared with sensor-augmented pump therapy.
T1D, Poor Glycemic Control Linked to Infection Development
Researchers found that patients with T1DM and poor glycemic control were more frequently diagnosed with infections.
Empagliflozin Reduces Risk for Nephropathy Regardless of Blood Pressure, LDL Cholesterol, HbA1c
Investigators examined renal outcomes when controlling cardiovascular risk factors, such as blood pressure, LDL-C, and HbA1c.
ITCA 650 Shows Efficacy in Reducing Weight, HbA1c in Type 2 Diabetes
The ITCA 650, a small titanium osmotic mini-pump, provides a subcutaneous infusion of exenatide over 3 or 6 months.
MEDI0382 Safe, Effective for Normalizing Glucose, Weight Loss in Type 2 Diabetes
