Impact on diabetes control and patient-reported outcomes of a newer implantable continuous glucose monitoring system (Eversense® CGM System): a single-centre retro- and prospective observational study.

Aims Of The Study: The Eversense® CGM System is the first and only continuous glucose monitoring system (CGMS) that uses a fully subcutaneous implanted sensor. This study aimed to evaluate effectiveness, safety and patient-reported outcomes in patients using the Eversense® CGM System in a realistic clinical setting, assessed at a single Swiss diabetes centre (Luzerner Kantonsspital) with prolonged follow-up.

Methods: This was a prospective and retrospective observational study that included patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus in whom at least one Eversense® glucose sensor was implanted between 2017 and 2022.

[CME/Answers: Hypocalcemia and Hypoparathyroidism].

CME/Answers: Hypocalcemia and Hypoparathyroidism Dyselectrolytemias are common, but not immediately clearly assignable. In addition to hyponatremia, hypercalcemia plays an important role in clinical practice. Clinically no less relevant are hypocalcemias and a frequently underlying primary hypoparathyroidism, which in most cases is iatrogenic - caused by thyroid surgery.

A rare cause of primary adrenal insufficiency due to a homozygous Arg188Cys mutation in the gene.

Unlabelled: Steroidogenic acute regulatory protein () is a key protein for the intracellular transport of cholesterol to the mitochondrium in endocrine organs (e.g. adrenal gland, ovaries, testes) and essential for the synthesis of all steroid hormones.

Copeptin levels and commonly used laboratory parameters in hospitalised patients with severe hypernatraemia - the "Co-MED study".

Background: Hypernatraemia is common in inpatients and is associated with substantial morbidity. Its differential diagnosis is challenging, and delayed treatment may have devastating consequences. The most important hormone for the regulation of water homeostasis is arginine vasopressin, and copeptin, the C-terminal portion of the precursor peptide of arginine vasopressin, might be a reliable new parameter with which to assess the underlying cause of hypernatraemia.
