Clinicodemographic Profile and Outcomes of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in the Indonesian Cohort of DISCOVER: A 3-Year Prospective Cohort Study.

Background: Indonesia is amongst the top 10 countries with the highest prevalence of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) at 10.8%. However, the distinguishable features of T2DM in Indonesia remain obscure.

Early Recognition of Type 2 Diabetes Complications and Use of SGLT2i in Multidisciplinary Approach: Indonesian Perspective - An Expert Opinion.

Indonesia ranks seventh with the highest number of cases of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). T2DM is associated with major undesirable complications including cardiovascular disease and chronic kidney disease. Kidneys play a major role in maintaining glucose homeostasis, leading the development of sodium glucose transporter inhibitors (SGLT2i).

Expert Opinion on Diabetes Management Challenges and Role of Basal Insulin/GLP-1 RA Fixed-Ratio Combination in People with Type 2 Diabetes from Indonesia.

Indonesia is struggling with a rapidly growing burden of diabetes due to rapid socioeconomic transition. People with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) need appropriate treatment strategies to maintain glycemic control. New modalities with simplicity, such as fixed-ratio combination of basal insulin and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA), further referred to as FRC, have proven to be an effective and practical therapeutic approach that may address this issue.

Practical Guidance on Basal Insulin Initiation and Titration in Asia: A Delphi-Based Consensus.

The global health burden of diabetes is on the rise and has affected more than half a billion people worldwide, particularly in Southeast Asia, North Africa, Africa, and the Western Pacific, Middle East, and South and Central America regions of the International Diabetes Federation (IDF). Despite many new treatments being available for the management of diabetes, glycemic control remains suboptimal in Asia, compared to the rest of the world. Delay in timely insulin initiation and inadequate titration of insulin are regarded to be some of the important reasons for inadequate glycemic control.

Genetics of Graves' disease: the lost concept.

A key issue of Really Significant Genes (RSG) that caused Graves Disease is unresolved. RSGs are considered likely major contributors to genetic risk for a disease. These genes should be strongly linked within families and they could become clinically useful as predictors of disease.
