Sensor-Augmented
Pump Therapy for A1C Reduction (STAR 3) Study |
| |
Results from the 6-month continuation phase
- Switching from optimized MDI to SAP therapy allowed for rapid
and safe A1C reductions. Glycemic benefits of SAP therapy persist
for at least 18 months (Diabetes Care) |

Low
Glycated Hemoglobin and Liver Disease in the U.S. Population |
| |
Low HbA1c values were associated with liver
enzymes and steatosis in the U.S. population. Liver disease may
partially explain the association of HbA1c with mortality and other
long-term outcomes (Diabetes Care) |

Neurovascular
Interaction and the Pathophysiology of Diabetic Retinopathy |
| |
We identify a key mechanism involved in the
development of the disease, namely, the interaction between neuronal
and vascular activities. Numerous pathological conditions in the
CNS have been linked to abnormalities in the relationship between
these systems. We suggest that a similar situation arises in the
diabetic retina, and we propose a logical strategy aimed at therapeutic
intervention (Experimental Diabetes Research) |

Evaluation
of Nonfasting Tests to Screen for Childhood and Adolescent Dysglycemia |
| |
Random glucose or 1-h GCT may potentially be
incorporated into clinical practice as initial screening tests
for prediabetes or diabetes and for determining which children
should undergo further definitive testing (Diabetes Care) |

Twelve-month
outcomes of an Internet-based diabetes self-management support
program |
| |
The Internet intervention meets the reach and
feasibility criteria for a potentially broad public health impact.
However, 12-month magnitude of effects was small, suggesting that
different or more intensive approaches are necessary to support
long-term outcomes (Patient Education and Counseling) |

Salsalate
improves glycemic control in patients with newly diagnosed type
2 diabetes |
| |
The results show that salsalate is effective
in improving glycemic control in newly diagnosed naïve patients with T2DM (Acta Diabetologica) |

Increased
prevalence of albuminuria among non-European peoples with type
2 diabetes |
| |
Non-European ethnicities appear to carry significantly
higher risks of albuminuria in type 2 diabetes (Nephrology Dialysis
Transplantation) |

The
Effect of Metformin Therapy on Vitamin D and B12 Levels in Patients
with Diabetes Mellitus Type 2 |
| |
This study confirms the higher prevalence of
vitamin B12 deficiency in metformin treated type 2 diabetic patients.
This study also suggests that vitamin D deficiency is not a clinical
concern among metformin treated type 2 diabetics, and metformin
does not negatively impact treatment of vitamin D deficiency in
these patients (Endocrine Practice) |
