Explore the diverse roles of adiponectin and its effects on cardiovascular outcomes across diabetes subtypes, especially in diabetic cardiomyopathy, with an emphasis on congestive heart failure.
Pregnant women with type 1 diabetes spend significantly more time within glycemic range with a closed-loop insulin delivery system than with standard care.
The risk for disordered eating and related worsened mental and physical health outcomes is greater in adolescents with obesity than in those without. Assessment for eating disorder symptoms and presentation is vital.
Conventional triglyceride-lowering therapies, such as fibrates and omega-3 fatty acids, have limited efficacy in lowering risk of pancreatitis or ASCVD in patients with severe hypertriglyceridemia. Could APOC3– targeted therapies be a better approach?
Including anthropometric criteria in the definition of obesity increases prevalence by nearly 60% compared with the traditional BMI-based classification.
Interventional therapies appear to be promising options for resistant hypertension. Explore the emerging options of renal and hepatic denervation, baroreceptor activation therapy, carotid body modulation, and cardiac neuromodulation.
Major adverse cardiovascular event risk in people with type 2 diabetes varies by the type of glucose-lowering medication used, with GLP-1 receptor agonists offering the greatest protection.
Understand the significance of vitamin D for bone health, especially its mechanism of action and clinical significance in bone destruction diseases such as osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and bone tuberculosis.
Early detection of foot ulcers in people with diabetes is vital but difficult to achieve due to the complex interaction of neuropathy, vascular disease, and immune dysfunction. Is thermal imaging the answer?
Semen analysis remains the gold standard when evaluating male fertility potential, but could alternative diagnostic approaches and new technologies provide meaningful insights into what is happening within the testis?
Treatment of active thyroid eye disease with the insulin-like growth factor receptor inhibitor IBI311 results in clinically relevant improvements in proptosis outcomes in Chinese patients.
Platelets are a key factor in the micro- and macrovascular complications of diabetes. Explore the platelet changes that occur, underlying molecular mechanisms, the role in vascular complications, and therapeutic perspectives.
Ectopic tissue at the tongue base was the sole functioning thyroid gland in a helicopter pilot incidentally diagnosed with lingual thyroid. Clinical stability, lack of symptoms, and treatment response, meant he was deemed fit to fly.
SGLT2 inhibitor empagliflozin significantly reduces the risk for acute and chronic kidney injury, regardless of the acute dip in eGFR soon after initiation and irrespective of the reason for treatment.
Korean research suggests a high cumulative CV health score from ages 30 to 40 years significantly lowers the risk for CV disease and kidney events in mid-life.
A woman presenting with a neck swelling was diagnosed with poorly differentiated thyroid carcinoma, parathyroid adenoma, and cervical paraganglioma. Could it reflect a shared embryologic origin from neural crest derivatives?
How do sleep parameters, such as duration, quality, timing, social jetlag, and chronotype, impact eating behavior? And what are the clinical implications for diabetes care and management?
Among more than 80,000 participants of a teleretinal diabetic retinopathy screening program, risk for acute angle closure after pharmacologic pupillary dilation is less than 1 in 40,000 per dilation.
