Metabolic Benefit of Teleconsultation for Diabetes Management During the COVID-19 Pandemic: A French Observational Prospective Study.

To investigate the impact of teleconsultation on glycemic control in patients with diabetes during the COVID-19 pandemic. In this observational prospective study, the main outcome was the comparison of glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) between patients with or without teleconsultation at 6-month follow-up. From March 17 to May 31, 2020, 610 patients were included, 456 were followed-up using Teleconsultation présent (TC+) and 154 not using No Teleconsultation (TC-).

Substitution of insulin by exenatide in bad controlled type 2 diabetic patients: efficacy and predictive factors.

Aim: Exenatide therapy is indicated in type 2 diabetes after failure of oral antidiabetic agents (OAD). The aim of this observational prospective study was to assess efficacy of exenatide, in improving HbA1c of at least of 1% (responders) in type 2 diabetic patients treated previously with insulin.

Methods: Thirty-six patients (HbA1c >7.

Association of malignant insulinoma and type 2 diabetes mellitus: a case report.

We report a case of recurrent hypoglycemia due to malignant insulinoma in a type 2 diabetic patient correctly controlled for years with the same doses of oral antidiabetic agents. A 79-year-old woman was admitted for recurrent severe hypoglycemia. She had a history of type 2 diabetes since 2000.

Efficacy of pioglitazone in familial partial lipodystrophy of the Dunnigan type: a case report.

A 25 year old woman consulted for a severe acanthosis nigricans and central distribution of fat. Her masculine type morphology was associated with muscular appearance of the limbs and excess fat deposits in the face and neck. Biological testing confirmed glucose intolerance associated with a severe insulin resistance, hypertriglyceridemia and polycystic ovary syndrome.

Efficacy of short term continuous subcutaneous insulin lispro versus continuous intravenous regular insulin in poorly controlled, hospitalized, type 2 diabetic patients.

Unlabelled: Intravenous insulin infusion (IVII) is rapidly effective in improving glycaemia in uncontrolled hospitalized diabetic patients. This significantly improves their morbidity and mortality. Intravenous insulin infusion may lead to IV infusion complications and is a heavy burden for caregivers.
