A critique of measurement of defective insulin secretion and insulin sensitivity as a precision approach to gestational diabetes.
Diabetologia
December 2024
Institute of Metabolic Science Metabolic Research Laboratories, University of Cambridge, Cambridge, UK.
Article Synopsis
- The study assessed the effectiveness of enhanced insulin secretion and sensitivity measurements in diagnosing and managing gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) among pregnant women at risk.
- A total of 1,308 pregnant women were analyzed using a standard 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and categorized into specific GDM subtypes based on their insulin resistance and insufficiency levels.
- Results showed that many women classified as having GDM exhibited unique characteristics, including a subgroup that was insulin-sensitive but displayed high blood sugar after meals, indicating the need for refined diagnostic criteria.
A 50-year-old question: Can imidocarb chemoprophylaxis ensure seroconversion for babesiosis in cattle under field conditions?
Vet Parasitol
December 2024
Retired researcher at Instituto de Pesquisas Veterinárias Desidério Finamor (IPVDF), Eldorado do Sul, RS 92990-000, Brazil.
Article Synopsis
- Bovine babesiosis, caused by Babesia bovis and Babesia bigemina, significantly impacts livestock and is often treated with imidocarb in areas lacking vaccines.
- The study involved 15 heifers, with 12 receiving imidocarb and all exposed to ticks to evaluate the development of humoral immunity through seroconversion.
- Results showed that after multiple treatments, a majority of the treated heifers did develop antibodies against the parasites, but not all animals seroconverted, highlighting potential limitations in the effectiveness of the chemoprophylaxis approach.

Diabetes Care
August 2024
Mount Sinai South Nassau, Oceanside, NY.
Given the proven benefits of screening to reduce diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) likelihood at the time of stage 3 type 1 diabetes diagnosis, and emerging availability of therapy to delay disease progression, type 1 diabetes screening programs are being increasingly emphasized. Once broadly implemented, screening initiatives will identify significant numbers of islet autoantibody-positive (IAb+) children and adults who are at risk for (confirmed single IAb+) or living with (multiple IAb+) early-stage (stage 1 and stage 2) type 1 diabetes. These individuals will need monitoring for disease progression; much of this care will happen in nonspecialized settings.

Objective: The evaluation of self-reported symptoms is a standard component of concussion assessment and management. Clinicians typically evaluate a total symptom severity score rather than scores corresponding to specific symptom domains (i.e.
