The present ABCD position statement is to mitigate this risk and other potential complications in people taking these drugs. Particular caution needs to be exercised in people who are at risk of diabetic ketoacidosis due to low calorie diet, illnesses, injuries, starvation, excessive exercise, excessive alcohol consumption and reduced insulin admin-istration among other precipitating factors for diabetic ketoacidosis (ABCD)

Beta-cell function in type 2 diabetic patients who failed to maintain good glycemic status with a combination of maximum dosages of metformin and sulfonylurea
In T2DM patients who failed to achieve glycemic control with a combination of maximum dosages of metformin and SU, the beta-cell function declined compared to NGT subjects. However, the beta-cells were still responsive to SUs, which play a significant role in glycemic control (Diabetes, Metabolic Syndrome and Obesity)
Comparison of flash glucose monitoring with real time continuous glucose monitoring in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes treated with continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion
Our data show that during Enlite® rtCGM with the Minimed® 640G pump system glucose variability was smaller and the patients spent less time in hypoglycemia than during isCGM. The need for timely calibrations is considered as the main drawback of the system (Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice)
Pancreas size and exocrine function is decreased in young children with recent‐onset Type 1 diabetes
Pancreatic area and accompanying subclinical exocrine function were reduced in very young children with recent‐onset Type 1 diabetes. This supports changes in the exocrine pancreas in the pathophysiology of Type 1 diabetes presenting in early life (Diabetic Medicine)
Sodium–Glucose Cotransporter 2 Inhibitors: A Case Study in Translational Research
This review provides a physiological perspective to understanding the multiple actions of these drugs complemented by a clinical perspective toward balancing benefits and risks (Diabetes Care)
SGLT Inhibitors for Type 1 Diabetes: Proceed With Extreme Caution
The increase in absolute risk of DKA, even in closely supervised patients participating in clinical trials, raises a serious concern that DKA will be even more common if SGLT inhibitors are used in routine clinical practice by practitioners who do not have the expertise and resources of the clinical trialists to implement the complex recommendations necessary to mitigate risk for DKA (Diabetes Care)
Adjunct Therapy in Type 1 Diabetes: A Survey to Uncover Unmet Needs and Patient Preferences Beyond HbA1c Measures
This survey highlights the importance of measures beyond HbA1c, such as treatment simplification and TIR, and patient preference for adjunct therapies that help address unmet needs in type 1 diabetes treatment (Diabetes Technology and Therapeutics)
Factors Affecting Cardiovascular Risk in Children, Adolescents, and Young Adults with Type 1 Diabetes
The frequency of cardiovascular risk factors is high in youth with T1D and associated with diabetes duration, obesity, and metabolic control (Journal of Diabetes Research)
Depression in type 1 diabetes and risk of dementia
For people with T1D, depression significantly increases dementia risk. Given the pervasiveness of depression in T1D, this has major implications for successful aging in this population recently living to old age (Aging & Mental Health)
First aid glucose administration routes for symptomatic hypoglycaemia
These results have important implications for individuals with symptoms of mild to moderate hypoglycaemia, their family members and first‐aid providers (Cochrane)
Type 1 diabetes defined by severe insulin deficiency occurs after 30 years of age and is commonly treated as type 2 diabetes
Type 1 diabetes diagnosed over 30 years of age, defined by severe insulin deficiency, has similar clinical and biological characteristics to that occurring at younger ages, but is frequently not identified. Clinicians should be aware that patients progressing to insulin within 3 years of diagnosis have a high likelihood of type 1 diabetes, regardless of initial diagnosis (Diabetologia)
Understanding the mechanisms of reversal of type 2 diabetes
Clinical and pathophysiological studies have shown type 2 diabetes to be a condition mainly caused by excess, yet reversible, fat accumulation in the liver and pancreas (The Lancet Diabetes & Endocrinology)
National Paediatric Diabetes Audit Report 2017-18: Care processes and outcomes
This report provides an analysis of data submitted by healthcare professionals caring for children and young people with diabetes in England and Wales over 2017/18 (HQIP)
Role of diabetes and insulin use in the risk of stroke and acute myocardial infarction in patients with atrial fibrillation
There is an incremental risk of ischemic stroke and MI from non-diabetics to non-insulin diabetics with the highest risk in insulin users. Protective effect of anticoagulation is attenuated with insulin use (American Heart Journal)
National Diabetes Inpatient Audit (NaDIA) – 2018
The National Diabetes Inpatient Audit (NaDIA) measures the quality of diabetes care provided to people with diabetes while they are admitted to hospital whatever the cause, and aims to support quality improvement
National Diabetes Foot Care Audit, 2014-2018
The National Diabetes Foot Care Audit (NDFA) is a continuous audit of diabetic foot disease in England and Wales
The Role of the Autonomic Nervous System on Cardiac Rhythm during the Evolution of Diabetes Mellitus Using Heart Rate Variability as a Biomarker
It is possible to avoid the consequences of DM identifying alterations in Sinus Atrial Node previous to its symptomatic appearance. This could be used as an early diagnosis indicator (Journal of Diabetes Research)
Implementation of Basal–Bolus Therapy in Type 2 Diabetes
Bolus insulin delivered by patch and pen using an algorithm-based weekly insulin dose titration significantly improved HbA1c in adults with type 2 diabetes, with improved subject and health care provider experience and preference for the patch (Diabetes Technology and Therapeutics)
Impaired awareness of hypoglycemia: a new risk factor for adverse pregnancy outcomes in type 1 diabetes
Impaired awareness of hypoglycemia: a new risk factor for adverse pregnancy outcomes in type 1 diabetes (Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice)
Effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy on the fatty acid composition and IGFBP-1 in insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus adult patients: a pilot study
Our results indicate that HBOT exerts beneficial effects in IDDM patients by improving the lipid profile and altering FA composition (Canadian Journal of Diabetes)
