Current diabetes projection methods may estimate future diabetes rates poorly if they fail to incorporate the impact of nutritional factors. Imported sugars deserve further investigation as a potential population-level driver of global diabetes (Public Health Nutrition)

Ideal v real conditions T2D care: diabetes specialty nurses’ perspectives
The participants expressed that they were the “hub” of diabetes care, but they were subordinated by the physicians. In order to achieve “good” diabetes care, GPs and nurses should collaborate more to try to understand each other´s areas of responsibility in order to improve the diabetes care (Internet Journal of Advanced Nursing Practice)
Maternal Hyperinsulinism and Glycaemic Status First Trimester & sequalae
Our data suggest that women who develop PIH may be metabolically challenged at early stages of pregnancy with hyperinsulinism, insulin insensitivity and slightly higher blood pressure (European Journal of Endocrinology)
Postpregnancy Glycemic Control and Weight Changes in T1D
In this clinical observation, type 1 diabetic women showed postpregnancy deterioration in glycemic control and were unable to return to prepregnancy weight. Type 1 diabetic women seem to require special attention after delivery to meet therapeutic targets (Diabetes Care)
Endothelial progenitor cells & endothelial dysfunction in T1D children
We demonstrated here that increased frequencies of EPCs observed in diabetic children are negatively correlated with endothelial function. Further studies are warranted to assess whether this phenomenon might result from effective mobilization of EPCs in order to repair damaged endothelium in children at increased risk for atherosclerosis (European Journal of Endocrinology)
A diabetes-predictive amino acid score and future cardiovascular disease
This study identifies branched-chain and aromatic amino acids as novel markers of CVD development and as an early link between diabetes and CVD susceptibility (European Heart Journal)
Self-management experiences among men and women with T2D
Our findings highlight the differences in needs and challenges of diabetes self-management among men and women, which may inform gender-sensitive diabetes, care, counseling and support (BMC Family Practice)
Carbohydrate counting accuracy and blood glucose variability in T2D
Inaccurate carbohydrate counting is frequent and associated with higher daily blood glucose variability in adults with type 1 diabetes (Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice)
Partner support, social-cognitive variables and self-monitoring T2D
The results show the importance of partners’ support and social-cognitive variables, regarding self-monitoring of blood glucose, on patients’ adherence(European Diabetes Nursing)
Macroalbuminuria Predicts Severe Hypoglycemia in T2D
The development of SH was independently associated with duration of diabetes and presence of macroalbuminuria, even with normal renal function in patients with type 2 diabetes (Diabetes Care)
Impaired Fasting Plasma Glucose in T2D and Sudden Cardiac Death
Impaired FPG and type 2 diabetes represent risk factors for SCD (Diabetes Care)
Clinical evaluation of a novel test strip technology for blood glucose
In this analysis of data from seven independent studies, OneTouch Verio test strips provide highly accurate results at hypoglycaemic BG levels (Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice)
Assessment Social Context & Glucose Monitoring Adherence Adolescents
Desire to blend in may support glucose monitoring adherence and desire to impress others may impede this behavior in adolescents with T1D. Other dimensions of social context were not linked to checking glucose in this study (Journal of Adolescent Heath)
Dysregulated fibrinolysis precede the development of T2D
Elevated levels of fibrinolytic variables precede the manifestation of T2DM after adjusting for metabolic and cardiovascular risk factors and can be detected several years before changes in glucose tolerance (Cardiovascular Diabetology)
Renin-angiotensin-aldosterone-blocking doesn’t predict normoalbuminuric RI
The majority of patients with type 2 diabetes and RI were normoalbuminuric despite the fact that 25% of these patients had no ongoing treatment with RAAS-blocking agents. Thus, RI in many patients with type 2 diabetes is likely to be caused by other factors than diabetic microvascular disease and ongoing RAAS-blockade. (Diabetes and Its Complications)
Importance of Perioperative Glycemic Control in General Surgery
Perioperative hyperglycemia was associated with adverse outcomes in general surgery patients with and without diabetes. However, patients with hyperglycemia who received insulin were at no greater risk than those with normal blood glucoses. Perioperative glucose evaluation and insulin administration in patients with hyperglycemia are important quality targets (Annals of Surgery)
Correlation between Blood Activin Levels & Clinical Parameters of T2D
This study indicates that measurements of activin A, B, or follistatin cannot discriminate risk for T2D in individual patients, but nonetheless suggests that the activins and follistatin might have important roles in insulin resistance and the onset and development of T2D (Experimental Diabetes Research)
Clinical Symptomatic Hypoglycemia & Cardiovascular Events & Mortality
Symptomatic hypoglycemia, whether clinically mild or severe, is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular events, all-cause hospitalization, and all-cause mortality. More attention may be needed for diabetic patients with hypoglycemic episodes (Diabetes Care)
Effect of Bromocriptine–QR on Glycemic Control – Uncontrolled Hyperglycemia
In T2DM subjects whose hyperglycemia is poorly controlled on one or two oral agents, bromocriptine-QR therapy for 24 weeks can provide significant added improvement in glycemic control relative to adding placebo (Endocrine Practice)
Enhanced Absorption of Insulin Aspart – a Dispersed Injection Strategy
A dispersed insulin injection strategy enhanced the effect of a fast-acting insulin analog. The increased surface-to-volume ratio of the subcutaneous insulin depot can facilitate insulin absorption into the vascular system (Diabetes Care)
