Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) use in people with type 1 diabetes (T1D) is revolutionizing management. Use of CGM in hospital is poised to transform care, however routine use is not currently recommended due to lack of accuracy validation in acute care, including in people with T1D. We aimed to determine real-world CGM accuracy in hospitalized adults with T1D.

We aimed to identify the incidence of post-denosumab cessation rebound hypercalcaemia amongst patients with breast cancer-related bony metastases. We performed a single-centre retrospective cohort analysis to determine the incident of rebound hypercalcaemia amongst patients treated with antiresorptive agents for bony metastatic breast cancer between 2016-2020.

Objective: To determine the incidence, characteristics, and outcomes of DKA in SGLT2i users vs nonusers with type 2 diabetes.
Design: Retrospective, multicenter, controlled cohort study.
Background: Interest in potential adverse outcomes associated with maternal subclinical hypothyroidism (normal free T4, elevated thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH)) has increased significantly over recent years. In turn, the frequency of maternal thyroid function testing has risen, despite universal thyroid function screening not being recommended, leading to a marked increase in referrals to obstetric endocrinology clinics. In 2017 the American Thyroid Association revised their diagnostic and management guidelines.
