BEYOND provides evidence that it is possible and safe to switch from a BBI regimen to either a once-daily fixed-combo injection or once-daily gliflozin added to basal insulin, with similar glucose control, fewer insulin doses, fewer injections daily, and less hypoglycemia (Diabetes Care)

Comparative Efficacy and Safety of Ultra-Long-Acting, Long-Acting, Intermediate-Acting, and Biosimilar Insulins for Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus: a Systematic Review and Network Meta-Analysis
Our results can be used to tailor insulin treatment according to the desired results of patients and clinicians and inform strategies to establish a competitive clinical market, address systemic barriers, expand the pool of potential suppliers, and favor insulin price reduction (Journal of General Internal Medicine)
Insulin Metrics: Need for Development of Consensus Standards for Reporting of Insulin Dosing Data
There is an urgent need for the diabetes community to work toward developing a consensus regarding the most effective methods to characterize and report insulin dosing data and to integrate insulin and glucose data reports (Diabetes Technology & Therapeutics)
Severe Hypoglycemia Risk With Long-Acting Insulin Analogs vs Neutral Protamine Hagedorn Insulin
In this cohort study, initiation of long-acting analogs was associated with a lower risk of ED visits or hospitalizations for hypoglycemia compared with NPH insulin in older patients with type 2 diabetes in Medicare. However, this association was not seen with concomitant prandial insulin use (JAMA)
Two decades since the fetal insulin hypothesis: what have we learned from genetics?
In summary, there is now ample evidence to support the idea that variants of certain genes which result in impaired pancreatic beta cell function and reduced insulin secretion contribute to both lower birthweight and higher type 2 diabetes risk in later life when inherited by the fetus (Diabetologia)
Severe Hypoglycemia Risk With Long-Acting Insulin Analogs vs Neutral Protamine Hagedorn Insulin
In this cohort study, initiation of long-acting analogs was associated with a lower risk of ED visits or hospitalizations for hypoglycemia compared with NPH insulin in older patients with type 2 diabetes in Medicare. However, this association was not seen with concomitant prandial insulin use (JAMA)
Results of a 24-Week Trial of Technosphere Insulin Versus Insulin Aspart in Type 2 Diabetes
Both TI and IA resulted in significant and clinically meaningful HbA1C reductions. TI also resulted in significant and clinically meaningful weight reductions. These data support the use of inhaled insulin as a treatment option for individuals with type 2 diabetes (Endocrine Practice)
Evaluation of an implemented new insulin chart to improve quality and safety of diabetes care in a large university hospital: a follow-up study
The implementation of a structured documentation form together with training measures for healthcare professionals led to less documentation errors and safe management of glycaemic control in hospitalised patients in a short time follow-up. A rollout at further medical wards is recommended, and sustainability in the long-term has to be demonstrated (BMJ)
Insulin-Stimulated Muscle Glucose Uptake and Insulin Signaling in Lean and Obese Humans
We suggest that reduced muscle glucose uptake in obesity is not due to defects in the insulin signaling pathway at the level of Akt/AS160, which suggests there remain significnt gaps in our knowledge of muscle insulin resistance in obesity. Our data imply that models of acute lipotoxicity don’t replicate the pathophysiology of obesity (Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism)
Insulin directly stimulates mitochondrial glucose oxidation in the heart
These novel findings suggest that targeting mitochondrial Akt is a potential therapeutic approach to enhance cardiac insulin sensitivity in condition such as heart failure, diabetes and obesity (Cardiovascular Diabetology)
Considerations for Insulin-Treated Type 2 Diabetes Patients During Hospitalization: A Narrative Review of What We Need to Know in the Age of Second-Generation Basal Insulin Analogs
It is important that HCPs are educated about the differences between standard formulary insulins and second-generation insulins, and the importance of clear communication during patient transitions (Diabetes Therapy)
Metformin may adversely affect orthostatic blood pressure recovery in patients with type 2 diabetes: substudy from the placebo-controlled Copenhagen Insulin and Metformin Therapy (CIMT) trial
Eighteen months of metformin treatment in combination with insulin compared with insulin alone increased early drop in OBP indicating an adverse effect of metformin on CAN independent of vitamin B12, MMA HbA1c (Cardiovascular Diabetology)
Once-Weekly Insulin for Type 2 Diabetes without Previous Insulin Treatment
Once-weekly treatment with insulin icodec had glucose-lowering efficacy and a safety profile similar to those of once-daily insulin glargine U100 in patients with type 2 diabetes (NEJM)
Effect of Dipeptidyl Peptidase 4 Inhibitors Used in Combination with Insulin Treatment in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
The addition of DPP4i to insulin is associated with a statistically significant reduction in glycemic control as measured by HbA1c, fasting plasma glucose, and 2-h postprandial glucose, without increasing the risk of hypoglycemia and weight gain. These conclusions were also observed in both stable-dose and flexible-dose insulin subgroups (Diabetes Therapy)
Compatibility and Safety of Ultra Rapid Lispro with Continuous Subcutaneous Insulin Infusion in Patients with Type 1 Diabetes: PRONTO-Pump Study
URLi was compatible with insulin pump use with a safety profile similar to lispro (Diabetes Technology and Therapeutics)
Impact of a Weekly Glucagon-Like Peptide 1 Receptor Agonist, Albiglutide, on Glycemic Control and on Reducing Prandial Insulin Use in Type 2 Diabetes Inadequately Controlled on Multiple Insulin Therapy
A once-weekly GLP-1RA was able to substitute for prandial insulin in 54% of people, substantially reducing the number of prandial insulin injections; glycemic control improved, with the added benefits of weight loss and less hypoglycemia in the GLP-1RA arm. Replacing prandial insulin with a weekly GLP-1RA can simplify basal plus prandial insulin treatments and achieve better outcomes in type 2 diabetes (Diabetes Care)
Insulin glargine/lixisenatide fixed‐ratio combination (iGlarLixi ) compared to premix or addition of meal‐time insulin to basal insulin in people with type 2 diabetes
iGlarLixi demonstrated similar or improved efficacy and safety versus other intensification choices from BI included in this study, providing a clinically relevant treatment option in people with T2D not well controlled on BI (Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism)
Switching to Degludec is Associated with Reduced Hypoglycaemia, Irrespective of Definition Used or Patient Characteristics: Secondary Analysis of the ReFLeCT Prospective, Observational Study
These results demonstrate that switching to degludec from other basal insulins was associated with reduced rates of hypoglycaemia, irrespective of the definition used or baseline patient characteristics (Diabetes Therapy)
Patient-Reported Outcomes with Insulin Glargine 300 U/mL in People with Type 2 Diabetes: The MAGE Multicenter Observational Study
The MAGE study indicates that Gla-300, as part of a basal-bolus regimen, results in improved treatment satisfaction and reduced hypoglycemia fear in people with advanced T2DM (Diabetes Therapy)
Sotagliflozin added to optimised insulin therapy leads to HbA1c reduction without weight gain in adults with type 1 diabetes
When added to optimised insulin therapy, sotagliflozin improved glycaemic control and body weight and enabled more adults with T1D to achieve A1c goals without weight gain over 52 weeks, although there was more DKA relative to placebo (Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism)
