Human-induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) technology has been applied in pathogenesis studies, drug screening, tissue engineering, and stem cell therapy, and patient-specific hiPSC-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) have shown promise in disease modeling, including diabetic cardiomyopathy. High glucose (HG) treatment induces lipotoxicity in hiPSC-CMs, as evidenced by changes in cell size, beating rate, calcium handling, and lipid accumulation. Empagliflozin, an SGLT2 inhibitor, effectively mitigates the hypertrophic changes, abnormal calcium handling, and contractility impairment induced by HG.

Background: In this study, we aimed to evaluate the role of the glucose-to-potassium ratio in predicting in-hospital mortality and prognosis of patients diagnosed with sepsis and septic shock in an emergency department and admitted to an emergency critical intensive care unit (ICU).
Methods: This study was a retrospective and observational evaluation of nontraumatic sepsis and septic shock patients > 18 years of age who were admitted to the emergency department of a tertiary training and research hospital and had available glucose and potassium values at the time of admission. The patients were evaluated over a 24-month period.

Objective: This study explores the influence of social network structures on self-management behaviors among older adults with diabetes in rural Korean villages, focusing on dietary management, physical activity, and blood glucose monitoring.
Design: Employing social network analysis (SNA), the study assessed network structures in three villages, focusing on variations in degree, closeness, and betweenness centralities to understand their impact on health behavior dissemination and adoption.
Results: The analysis identified significant differences in network configurations across the villages.
