Diabetes

Risk of pre-eclampsia and large for gestational age infants was lower amongst pregnant females with Type 1 diabetes who spent more time in optimal glucose range at 12 weeks gestation, according to new research.

A new research has developed an innovative algorithm, in order to reveal new perspectives on the insulin sensitivity, insulin secretion, distribution of fatty tissue, and pro-inflammatory profiles of T2D.

Researchers found a higher risk of T2D amongst males who had a lower birthweight followed by being overweight as young adults, compared to those with a normal weight at the same times of life.

Previous studies demonstrated the link between T2D and sleep deprivation, while others between healthy dietary habits and a reduced risk of diabetes. However, a new research focus on whether sleep deprived individuals can reduce their risk of T2D by eating healthily.

A new study focused on the connection between systematic inflammation and Type 2 diabetes. Joint assessment of biomarkers, has been shown to improve the risk prediction of T2D.

Patients with Type 2 diabetes who underwent bariatric surgery have demonstrated favourable long-term diabetes control, when compared those receiving medical management and lifestyle interventions.

Adults with Type 2 diabetes can reduce their risk of chronic kidney disease and cardiovascular disease by lowering their glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c), and maintaining diabetes remission.

Lower risk of developing kidney stones has been associated with the use of SGLT2 inhibitors. These findings are critical, considering Type 2 diabetes is linked with a higher risk of developing kidney stones.
