Sri Lanka is experiencing a rapid increase in the number of people with diabetes mellitus (DM) due to population growth and aging. Physician shortages, outdated technology, and insufficient health education have contributed to the difficulties associated with managing the burden of disease. New models of chronic disease management are needed to address the increasing prevalence of DM. Medical stud...... hiện toàn bộ
SGLT2 inhibitors as potentially helpful drugs in PI3K inhibitor-induced diabetes: a case reportClinical Diabetes and Endocrinology - Tập 7 - Trang 1-4 - 2021

Hyperglycemia is the most common side-effect of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitors that are approved for the treatment of some advanced or metastatic breast cancers. This side-effect is likely due to the central role of PI3K in insulin signalling. Here we report the use of a sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor to manage severe hyperglycemia. We describe a 74-year-old woma...... hiện toàn bộ
Reasons for discontinuing insulin and factors associated with insulin discontinuation in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: a real-world evidence studyClinical Diabetes and Endocrinology - Tập 7 - Trang 1-10 - 2021

Evidence suggests that insulin therapy of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is frequently discontinued. However, the reasons for discontinuing insulin and factors associated with insulin discontinuation in this patient population are not well understood. We conducted a retrospective cohort study of adults with T2DM prescribed insulin between 2010 and 2017 at Partners HealthCare. Reason...... hiện toàn bộ
Acromegaly and thyroid cancer: analysis of evolution in a series of patientsClinical Diabetes and Endocrinology - - 2020

Acromegaly is associated with higher morbidity and mortality mainly due to cardiovascular disease. Data on the incidence and evolution of thyroid cancer in acromegaly are controversial. Our objective was to describe the characteristics of a group of acromegalic patients with differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) and analyze their evolution. This is a retrospective multicenter study of 24 acromega...... hiện toàn bộ
Diabetes and other endocrine-metabolic abnormalities in the long-term follow-up of pancreas transplantationClinical Diabetes and Endocrinology - Tập 2 - Trang 1-9 - 2016
Marcio W Lauria, Antonio Ribeiro-Oliveira
Pancreas transplantation (PTX) has been demonstrated to restore long-term glucose homeostasis beyond what can be achieved by intensive insulin therapy or islet transplants. Moreover, PTX has been shown to decrease the progression of the chronic complications of diabetes. However, PTX patients require chronic use of immunosuppressive drugs with potential side effects. The long-term follow-up of PTX...... hiện toàn bộ

Limited data are available regarding the level of adherence and barriers to dietary recommendations in individuals with type 2 diabetes in Africa including Ethiopia. Therefore, this study aimed at assessing the level of dietary adherence and its barriers among patients with type 2 diabetes in northwest Ethiopia. A prospective hospital-based cross-sectional study was conducted from August to Octobe...... hiện toàn bộ
Classic cardiovascular risk factors improve in very elderly hypopituitary patients treated on standard hormone replacement in long term follow- upClinical Diabetes and Endocrinology - Tập 7 - Trang 1-11 - 2021
Isabella Naves Rosa, Alexandre Anderson de Sousa Munhoz Soares, Marcelo Palmeira Rodrigues, Luciana Ansaneli Naves
Hypopituitarism in the elderly population is an underdiagnosed condition and may increase comorbidities related to glucose metabolism, dyslipidemia, and cardiovascular risk factors. Optimization of hormone replacement that considers alterations in clearance rates of hormones, interaction with other medications, and evaluation of the risk-benefit ratio of treatment is a big challenge for clinical p...... hiện toàn bộ
Potential association of LMNA-associated generalized lipodystrophy with juvenile dermatomyositisClinical Diabetes and Endocrinology - Tập 4 - Trang 1-6 - 2018

Juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM) is an auto-immune muscle disease which presents with skin manifestations and muscle weakness. At least 10% of the patients with JDM present with acquired lipodystrophy. Laminopathies are caused by mutations in the lamin genes and cover a wide spectrum of diseases including muscular dystrophies and lipodystrophy. The p.T10I LMNA variant is associated with a phenotype ...... hiện toàn bộ
