This observational study investigated the use of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in a team of professional cyclists without diabetes during two consecutive annual training camps. The goal of the study was twofold: to present the aggregated CGM metrics such as day/overnight CGM average (DAYAVG/OVNAVG) for this group of professional cyclists and to study the association between exercise energy expenditure (megajoules per day), carbohydrate intake (grams), and minimum overnight CGM values (millimoles per liter). Linear mixed models were employed in the analysis.

Article Synopsis
  • - Whole-genome sequencing helps public health agencies link food poisoning cases to the same source of contamination, but most cases are sporadic and often go uninvestigated.
  • - Researchers analyze specific bacterial pathogens by looking at small mutations in their DNA to understand patterns in contamination events and infection susceptibility, particularly highlighting that younger age groups are more vulnerable.
  • - Many contamination episodes last a long time, with 50% of cases linked to clusters persisting for nearly 3 years, often involving contaminated food that affects people across multiple states, rather than just issues with infant formula.

Article Synopsis
  • * A study of bacterial isolates reveals that younger individuals are more susceptible to infections, with significant regional variations in serovar prevalence across the U.S.
  • * Many contamination episodes leading to illness last a long time, with 50% of cases linked to clusters persisting for nearly three years, and infants are often infected through cross-contamination rather than contaminated formula.

The use of continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) in individuals living without diabetes is increasing. The purpose of this study was to profile various CGM metrics around nutritional intake, sleep and exercise in a large cohort of physically active men and women living without any known metabolic disease diagnosis to better understand the normative glycemic response to these common stimuli. A total of 12,504 physically active adults (age 40 ± 11 years, BMI 23.

Introduction: Medical readiness continues to be a significant concern for the military. DoD policy directs medical authorities to refer service members to the Disability Evaluation System (DES) when the course of further recovery is relatively predictable or within 1 year of diagnosis, whichever is sooner. The Medical Evaluation Readiness Information Toolset (MERIT) is an application that leverages artificial intelligence within a clinical decision support tool to provide clinicians with predictions of a service member's likelihood of referral to the DES for the top 24 medical conditions that result in separation from the service, which represent more than 90% of all referral cases to the DES since 2000.
