Diagnosis of adult-onset type 1 diabetes is difficult, and misclassification is common. Clinical biomarker investigations and high-specificity research approaches are needed to improve patient management and understanding of its phenotype.

The optimal healthy ranges for thyroid function based on cardiovascular risk and mortality have lower thresholds than those currently used for diagnosis and treatment of subclinical thyroid dysfunction.

Primary bilateral macronodular adrenal hyperplasia with cryptococcal meningitis that developed after laparoscopic left adrenalectomy. Outcomes may be improved by treating cryptococcus infection before removing the adrenals.

Genetic causes of obesity

Obesity with a genetic cause is often underdiagnosed. This review explores the physiopathology, classification, diagnosis, and emerging treatments that could change the prognosis for obesity-associated genetic syndromes.

Current Reviews

Two family members with a family history of diabetes were found to have a genetic variant in both GCK and HNF1A, but was this true digenic MODY? Care must be taken in such cases, and collaboration with MODY genetics experts is key.

Primary bilateral macronodular adrenal hyperplasia with cryptococcal meningitis that developed after laparoscopic left adrenalectomy. Outcomes may be improved by treating cryptococcus infection before removing the adrenals.

Severe hyperglycemia and diabetic ketoacidosis in a patient with newly diagnosed diabetes who was taking teprotumumab for thyroid eye disease. Monitoring glucose levels throughout teprotumumab treatment may be beneficial.

Episode 5: Next-generation sequencing

Emerging biomarkers in thyroid and non-small cell lung cancers

Next-generation sequencing is a powerful tool that can identify mutations or fusions in a wide range of cancers, enabling physicians to provide targeted therapy to patients and improve outcomes. In this podcast, Professor Andrew Beggs discusses practical aspects of this technique from the clinical viewpoint.
