Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by a germline pathogenic variant in the MEN1 tumor suppressor gene. Patients with MEN1 have a high risk for primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) with a penetrance of nearly 100%, pituitary adenomas (PitAd) in 40% of patients, and neuroendocrine neoplasms (NEN) of the pancreas (40% of patients), duodenum, lung, and thymus. Increased MEN1-related mortality is mainly related to duodenal-pancreatic and thymic NEN.

Article Synopsis
  • Early post-transplant hyperglycemia (EPTH) is linked to several negative health outcomes for kidney transplant patients, including increased risk of readmissions and the development of post-transplant diabetes mellitus (PTDM).
  • A study analyzed the effects of dedicated endocrine care (DEC) compared to routine care (RC) on glycemic control in kidney transplant recipients over an eight-day period.
  • Results showed that patients under DEC had better blood glucose management, with lower average blood glucose levels, a higher likelihood of receiving insulin when necessary, and fewer instances of low blood sugar compared to those receiving RC.

Aim: To explore the effect of Mankai, a cultivated aquatic duckweed green plant, on postprandial glucose (PG) excursions in type 2 diabetes (T2D).

Methods: In a 4-week, randomized crossover-controlled trial, we enrolled 45 adults with T2D (HbA1c range: 6.5%-8.

The advanced hybrid closed-loop (AHCL) algorithm combines automated basal rates and corrections yet requires meal announcement for optimal performance, which poses a challenge for some. We aimed to compare glucose control in adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D) using the MiniMed 780G AHCL system, utilizing simplified meal announcement versus precise carbohydrate (CHO) counting. In a study involving 14 adults with T1D, we evaluated glycemic control during a 13-week "precise phase," followed by two 3- to 4-week simplified meal announcement phases: "fixed one-step" (preset of one personalized fixed CHO amount) and "multistep" (entry of multiples of one, two, or three of these presets depending on meal size estimate).
