The improvement of diabetic patients' glycaemic status requires an increase of fingerstick blood glucose measurements. Among the possibilities available to assess diabetes' control, we will consider new systems of continuous interstitial glucose monitoring. After a brief description of the devices presently commercialized, we will discuss their indications and their limitations, as well as their future prospects in a possible "closed loop" insulin delivery according to blood glucose level.

Baseline Cardiovascular Risk Factors in Patients With Severe Mental Illness (SMI) and Second Generation Antipsychotic Use From the Fixed Dose Intervention Trial of New England Enhancing Survival in SMI (FITNESS).
J Clin Psychiatry
January 2025
Psychotic Disorders Division, McLean Hospital, Belmont, Massachusetts.
Individuals with severe mental illness (SMI) have a shorter life expectancy compared to the general population, largely due to cardiovascular disease (CVD). In this report from the Fixed Dose Intervention Trial of New England Enhancing Survival in SMI Patients (FITNESS), we examined baseline CVD risk factors and their treatment in patients with SMI and second generation antipsychotic (SGA) use. FITNESS enrolled 204 participants with SMI and SGA use, but without documented history of CVD or diabetes mellitus, from several clinics in the Boston, Massachusetts, area between April 29, 2015, and September 26, 2019.

This study aimed to investigate the potential hypoglycemic mechanism of red ginseng acidic polysaccharides (RGAP) from the perspective of fatty acid (FA) regulation. A high-glucose/high-fat diet in conjunction with streptozotocin administration was employed to establish type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) rat models, and their fecal FAs were detected using the liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) method. RGAP treatment alleviated the polyphagia, polydipsia, weight loss, and hyperglycemia observed in T2DM rats.

Introduction: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is linked to abnormal brain structure and cognitive dysfunction. However, there is a lack of studies conducted to assess the impact of diabetes on cortical gyrification and cognition. The aim of this cross-sectional study was to assess the potential negative effects of glucose metabolism levels on cognition and cortical gyrification in T2DM.

Background: The association of maternal hyperglycemia with childhood developmental delay has been examined; however, only 2 studies used maternal blood glucose level as a continuous variable as an exposure. A present study aimed to investigate the influence of maternal fasting plasma glucose (mFPG) level in early gestation on developmental delay in children.
Methods: This cohort study included 1541 mother-child pairs who participated in the Tohoku Medical Megabank Project Birth and Three-Generation Cohort Study.

Background: Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is a crucial incretin hormone secreted by intestinal endocrine L cells. Given its pivotal physiological role, researchers have developed GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) through structural modifications. These analogues display pharmacological effects similar to those of GLP-1 but with augmented stability and are regarded as an effective means of regulating blood glucose levels in clinical practice.
