The objective of this study was to investigate temporal changes in the reported rates of spontaneous abortion associated with Type 1 diabetes. Individuals from the Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh Type 1 Diabetes Registry for 1950-1964 (n=495) completed a self-report reproductive history questionnaire in 1981 that was updated in 1990. Data from both surveys, which proved to be valid and reliable, were utilized for this report. More spontaneous abortions (26.8 vs. 7.7%, P<0.001), stillbirths (4.7 vs. 1.2%, P<0.001) and induced abortions (7.0 vs. 0.9%, P<0.001) were reported for Type 1 diabetic women than for the non-diabetic partners of Type 1 diabetic men. A significant temporal decline in the rates of spontaneous abortion for Type 1 diabetic women was observed (< or = 1969: 26.4%; 1970-1979: 31.0%; 1980-1989: 15.7%; P<0.05). No differences were apparent for the non-diabetic partners of Type 1 diabetic men (< or = 1969: 4.2%; 1970-1979: 9.5%; 1980-1989: 5.7%; P>0.05). Temporal changes in medical care for women with diabetes (i.e. self-monitoring of glycemic control) may have contributed to a recent reduction in spontaneous abortions associated with maternal Type 1 diabetes.

Background: We aimed to characterize factors associated with the under-studied complication of cognitive decline in aging people with long-duration type 1 diabetes (T1D).
Methods: Joslin "Medalists" (n = 222; T1D ≥ 50 years) underwent cognitive testing. Medalists (n = 52) and age-matched non-diabetic controls (n = 20) underwent neuro- and retinal imaging.
Latent Profile Analysis of Fatigue Subtypes in Adults with Type 2 Diabetes.
Nurs Res
January 2025
School of Nursing, The University of Texas at Austin.
Background: People with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) commonly report a higher fatigue intensity than the general population. However, effective fatigue management is lacking because little is known about other fatigue characteristics, including timing, distress, and quality, as well as the potential fatigue subtypes experienced in people with T2DM.
Objective: To describe fatigue intensity, timing, distress, and quality, and identify fatigue subtypes in people with T2DM.
Prevalence and predictive risk factors of hypertensive disorders in pregnant women at high risk for gestational diabetes. The PREeclampsia in DIabetiC gestaTION (PREDICTION) study.

Department of Medical Area, Section of Metabolic Diseases and Diabetes, University Hospital of Pisa, Via Paradisa, 2, Pisa, 56124, Italy.
Purpose: Women with gestational diabetes (GDM) have increased risk of hypertensive disorders in pregnancy (HDP). However, knowledge remains limited for women with high-risk metabolic profiles, regardless of GDM diagnosis. This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of HDP among women at high risk for GDM, while simultaneously identifying potential predictive clinical risk factors of HDP.

Introduction: Scientific publications have shown sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors to have several beneficial effects in patients with complex type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, sodium-glucose co-transporter-1 (SGLT-1) inhibitor is still under investigation in clinical trials. Recently, a dual inhibitor of sodium-glucose co-transporter (SGLT1/2), sotagliflozin, has been approved for use in patients with T2DM.
