The
association between dietary macronutrient intake and the prevalence
of the metabolic syndrome |
| |
A diet high in carbohydrates, low in fat and
protein, with low-to-moderate alcohol intake, is associated with
a reduced prevalence of the metabolic syndrome (British Journal
of Nutrition) |

Fasting
plasma glucose is inadequate screening test for prediabetes in
obese youth |
| |
A fasting plasma glucose is recommended by the
American and Canadian Diabetes Associations (ADA and CDA) for screening
obese young people for prediabetes, but a recent Canadian study
says it is inadequate (BMJ, UK) |

Relationship
between the classification of diabetic macular edema and its
related factors |
| |
The classification and degree of DME correlates
with the stages of DR, diabetic duration, the classification of
diabetes, the use of insulin, and visual loss (PubMed, USA) |

Effect
of diet and physical exercise treatment on insulin resistance
syndrome of schoolchildren. |
| |
PGL measured 180 minutes after GC may define
an important subgroup of pre-diabetic children. The similar prevalance
of CRF in both praediabetic groups underlines the importance of
this subgroup. Lifestyle modification for two years improves CRF
in this population (PubMed, USA) |

Too
much glucagon, too little insulin: time course of pancreatic
islet dysfunction in new-onset type 1 diabetes. |
| |
Postprandial hyperglucagonemia worsens significantly
during the first year after diagnosis of type 1 diabetes and may
represent a distinct therapeutic target. Fasting glucagon values
may underestimate the severity of hyperglucagonemia (PubMed, USA) |
