Diabetes
patients rank health concerns differently than their doctors,
U-M survey shows |
| |
While diabetes and hypertension ranked high
for both groups, diabetics were more likely than doctors to prioritize
symptoms such as pain and depression (Genetic Engineering & Biotechnology News) |

Management
of Diabetic Ketoacidosis in the Emergency Department |
| |
Treatment consists of appropriate fluid resuscitation,
insulin infusion, adjustments of electrolytes and phosphate, and
careful monitoring. The most common serious complication is cerebral
edema (Abstract - Clinical Pediatric Emergency Medicine) |

Changes
in Prandial Glucagon Levels after 2-year Treatment with Vildagliptin
or Glimepiride |
| |
In Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Inadequately
Controlled with Metformin Monotherapy ... Vildagliptin therapy
but not glimepiride improves post-prandial a-cell function, which
persists for at least 2 years (Diabetes Care) |

Effect
of Renin-Angiotensin System Blockade On Insulin Resistance And
Inflammatory Parameters in Patients With Impaired Glucose Tolerance |

Insulin sensitivity and associated inflammatory
factors improve under ARB in IGT patients (Diabetes Care) |

Intracellular
Ca2+ regulating proteins in vascular smooth muscle cells are
altered with type 1 diabetes due to the direct effects of hyperglycemia |
| |
This work demonstrates that the previously-reported
reduced Ca2+ signaling in VSMCs from diabetic animals is related
to decreases and/or redistribution in the IP3R Ca2+ channels and
SERCA proteins (Cardio Vascular Diabetology) |

Open
innovation challenge seeks solutions to type 1 diabetes |
| |
An innovation contest launched by the Harvard
Catalyst, an online hub for cross-disciplinary scientific work.
The challenge is to define new hypotheses and unaddressed questions
concerning type 1 diabetes. The best new ideas will receive prizes
ranging from $2,500 to $10,000 (Harvard Science) |

Novo Nordisk has posted a solid set of figures
for 2009, and says that the launch of its much-touted diabetes
drug Victoza in Europe has been going very well (PharmaTimes) |

Entelos
Granted Patent for Innovative Diagnostic Capability in Obesity,
Diabetes |
| |
The newly patented method extends the ability
of the Entelos Metabolism PhysioLab platform to explore, simulate,
and predict differences in fuel utilization (e.g., fat, carbohydrate,
and protein metabolism) between patients, a key predictor in responses
to treatment (Entelos) |

Metabolic
consequences of incorrect insulin administration techniques in
aging subjects with diabetes |
| |
Often overlooked factors including insulin injection
into altered skin areas, often brought about by incorrect habits,
namely needle reutilization or poor compliance to the suggestion
to continuously rotate skin injection areas (Acta Diabetologica) |

Incident
Diabetes in Relation to Weight Patterns During Middle Age |

This study underscores the importance of obesity
in diabetes risk and the importance of preventing the development
of overweight and obesity earlier in life (American Journal of
Epidemiology) |

JDRF-funded
research advances potential for regeneration as a possible cure
for type 1 diabetes |
| |
A hormone responsible for the body's stress
response is also linked to the growth of insulin-producing cells
in the pancreas, according to JDRF- funded researchers at the Salk
Institute for Biological Studies in California (Genetic Engineering & Biotechnology News) |
