Differences in Glycemic Control for Inpatients with Type 1 Diabetes on Insulin Pump Versus Subcutaneous Insulin Therapy.

Background: Inpatient use of insulin pump therapy has been increasing due to greater availability of this technology, however there is a paucity of research that investigates glycemic control of inpatient insulin pump users.

Objective: To compare the glycemic control of hospitalized patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) who used insulin pump vs. multiple daily injections (MDI).

Demographic Variables Associated With Diabetes Technology Awareness or Use in Adults With Type 2 Diabetes.

Background: Studies in populations with type 1 diabetes highlight racial/ethnic disparities in the use of diabetes technology; however, little is known about disparities among those with type 2 diabetes. This project investigates the racial/ethnic and socioeconomic disparities in diabetes technology awareness and use in adults with type 2 diabetes in the ambulatory setting.

Methods: Adults ≥40 years of age with type 2 diabetes in ambulatory care were invited to participate via an e-mail link to a de-identified REDCap (Research Electronic Data Capture) questionnaire.

De novo ulcerative colitis and Takotsubo cardiomyopathy following sleeve gastrectomy.

The increasing prevalence of severe obesity is a major public health concern. Bariatric surgery is an important treatment option for severe obesity due to its long-term sustained result. Multiple studies have shown that patients have an increased risk of developing inflammatory bowel disease following bariatric surgery.

Hypertriglyceridemia-Induced Acute Pancreatitis, Euglycemic Diabetic Ketoacidosis and COVID-19 Infection in a Patient With Type 2 Diabetes Taking a Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter 2 Inhibitor.

Recent landmark trials have increased the use of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT-2i) in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). A rare but serious side effect of SGLT-2i is euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis (euDKA), which usually occurs in the setting of acute illness such as the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). We report a distinctive case of a patient with hyperlipidemia and T2D on SGLT-2i therapy who presented with hypertriglyceridemia-induced pancreatitis (HTGP) concurrently with euDKA and COVID-19.
