Despite its high prevalence in the western world metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) does not benefit from targeted pharmacological therapy. We measured healthcare utilisation and ...
Painful diabetic neuropathy (PDN) is highly prevalent and annoyingly in patients with diabetes. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of oral N-acetylcysteine (NAC) compared to pregabalin in PDN.
Management of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) has internationally established guidelines. However, management of severe, refractory DKA with multiple contributors to acidosis, and management of DKA in patients wit...
Most of the cases of hyperglycemia during pregnancy are attributed to gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) (75–90%). Women diagnosed with GDM are at an increased risk for complications during pregnancy and deli...
Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors are a class of drugs that enhance the incretin-insulin pathway and offer effective glycemic control in type 2 diabetes mellitus. However, these drugs may be associated...
Type 1 diabetes mellitus one of the biggest health concerns around the world, is difficult to manage during adolescence. Among the non-medical methods of controlling this disease is empowerment through self-ef...
Heterozygous insulin receptor mutations (INSR) are associated with insulin resistance, hyperglycaemia and hyperinsulinaemic hypoglycaemia in addition to hyperandrogenism and oligomenorrhoea in women. Numerous ...
Social determinants of health (SDOH) research demonstrates poverty, access to healthcare, discrimination, and environmental factors influence health outcomes. Several models are commonly used to assess SDOH, y...
Due to the progressive decline in β-cell function, it is often necessary to utilize multiple agents with complementary mechanisms of action to address various facets and achieve glycemic control. Thus, this st...
Identification of modifiable risk factors for Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) onset is an important aspect of controlling the burden imposed by this disease on an increasing number of older U.S. adults. Graves diseas...
Glucocorticoid (GC)-induced hyperglycemia is a frequent issue, however there are no specific guidelines for this diabetes subtype. Although treat-to-target insulin is recommended in general to correct hypergly...
Professional guidelines recommend an HbA1c < 7% for most people with diabetes and < 8.5% for those with relaxed glycemic goals. However, many people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are unable to achieve t...
The objective of this meta-analysis was to investigate the association between plasma bilirubin levels and the incidence of metabolic syndrome and diabetes mellitus across all populations.
Pituitary imaging is often required to exclude an adenoma suspected clinically or biochemically. Although magnetic resonance (MR) is the gold standard, computerised tomography (CT) is faster, cheaper and induc...
Obesity has reached epidemic proportions in children and adolescents in the United States. Children’s behaviors are strongly influenced by parental behaviors, and weight loss in parents is positively associate...
Homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) is a biomarker for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, the role of HOMA-IR in the non-diabetic is unclear. This study aimed to determine whet...
Foot complications account for more hospital admissions than any other diabetes mellitus (DM) complications with adverse outcomes being foot ulcers and amputation.
Pituitary adenomas (PPAs) are uncommon in childhood and adolescence, accounting for 2–6% of all intracranial neoplasms. Delayed puberty, growth retardation, galactorrhea and weight gain are common features at ...
This is a commentary on “Intermittent fasting: is there a role in the treatment of diabetes? A review of the literature and guide for primary care physicians” by Albosta et al. While this article adequately su...
