Objectives: The US Preventive Services Task Force recommends screening of adults aged 35-70 with a body mass index ≥25 kg/m for type 2 diabetes and referral of individuals who screen positive for pre-diabetes to evidence-based prevention strategies. The diabetes burden in the USA is predicted to triple by 2060 necessitating strategic diabetes prevention efforts, particularly in areas of highest need. This study aimed to identify pre-diabetes hotspots using geospatial mapping to inform targeted diabetes prevention strategies.

Background: Hybrid closed-loop systems are a new class of technology to manage type 1 diabetes mellitus. The system includes a combination of real-time continuous glucose monitoring from a continuous glucose monitoring device and a control algorithm to direct insulin delivery through an insulin pump. Evidence suggests that such technologies have the potential to improve the lives of people with type 1 diabetes mellitus and their families.

While glucose-responsive insulin delivery systems are in widespread clinical use to treat insulin insufficiency, the on-demand supplementation of glucagon for acute hypoglycemia treatment remains understudied. A self-regulated glucagon release material is highly desired to mitigate the potential risks of severe insulin-induced hypoglycemia. Here, we describe a glucose-responsive polymeric nanosystem with glucagon covalently grafted to the end-group.
