Background and purpose The lockdowns and restrictions enforced periodically during the COVID-19 pandemic posed a serious challenge for non-COVID care, especially in diabetes where telediabetes, the utilization of telemedicine consultations for diabetic care, became more necessary than ever before.

Moving forward, it is imperative to understand the perspectives of telediabetes providers in this domain.

- This study investigates the link between specific gene alleles and the risk of developing Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) when taking lamotrigine (LTG), with a focus on various populations.
- It identifies two protective alleles and highlights five others that could increase the risk of LTG-induced SJS, with a significant odds ratio indicating a strong association.
- The findings suggest that genetic screening should be considered to help prevent this serious side effect, as the risk alleles may vary by ancestry.
