Background: Whether diabetes mellitus is associated with an increased risk of cholecystectomy remains controversial.
Aims: To explore the association between diabetes mellitus and the risk of cholecystectomy.
Methods: Population-based case-control analysis using UK-based General Practice Research Database. Cases of cholecystectomy and up to four controls per case, matched on age, sex, BMI, general practice, calendar time, and years of history in the database were identified between 1994 and 2008. Conditional logistic regression was used to estimate the risk of cholecystectomy in diabetics compared to non-diabetics. Odds ratios (ORs) were calculated, adjusted for smoking, alcohol consumption, statin use, and additional confounders.
Results: Amongst 22,574 cases with cholecystectomy and 72,476 controls, 1068 (4.7%) and 3270 (4.5%) had diabetes, respectively, yielding an adjusted OR for developing gallstone disease followed by cholecystectomy of 0.88, 95% CI 78-1.00, p=0.05) in association with diabetes mellitus. Neither glycaemic control, nor increasing diabetes duration or oral antidiabetic therapies were associated with an altered risk of cholecystectomy. Use of statins was protective in patients with (adj. OR 0.66, 95% CI 0.54-0.80, p<0.0001) or without diabetes (adj. OR 0.70, 95% CI 0.62-0.78, p<0.0001).
Conclusions: Diabetes mellitus was not associated with an altered risk of cholecystectomy.

Objective: This study investigates the relationship between the albumin-to-creatinine ratio and diabetic retinopathy (DR) in US adults using NHANES data from 2009 to 2016. This study assesses the predictive efficacy of the urinary serum albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR/SACR Ratio) against traditional biomarkers such as the serum albumin-to-creatinine ratio (SACR) and urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) for evaluating DR risk. Additionally, the study explores the potential of these biomarkers, both individually and in combination with HbA1c, for early detection and risk stratification of DR.

Introduction: Obesity and its complications are associated with high morbidity/mortality and a significant healthcare cost burden in Spain. It is therefore essential to know the potential clinical and economic benefits of reducing obesity. The objective of this study is to predict the decrease in rates of onset of potential complications associated with obesity and the cost savings after a weight loss of 15% over 10 years in Spain.

Purpose Of Review: Addressing diabetes distress (DD), the emotional demands of living with diabetes, is a crucial component of diabetes care. Most individuals with type 2 diabetes and approximately half of adults with type 1 diabetes receive their care in the primary care setting. This review will provide guidance on addressing DD and implementing targeted techniques that can be tailored to primary care patients.

Insulin resistance was considered to be the most important clinical phenotype of type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Almond is a widely-consumed nut and long-term intake was beneficial to alleviating insulin resistance in patients with T2DM. Hence, screening of anti-diabetic peptides from almond proteins was feasible based on the effectiveness of peptides in the treatment of T2DM.
