Aims/hypothesis: Haptoglobin(Hp) 2-2 genotype has been shown to increase coronary artery disease (CAD) risk in numerous type 2 diabetes studies but in only one type 1 diabetes cohort. We assessed the association of Hp2-2 with incident CAD over 26years of follow-up in 1303 Caucasian participants of the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial/Epidemiology of Diabetes Interventions and Complications (DCCT/EDIC) study.
Methods: DCCT randomized volunteers with type 1 diabetes to intensive versus conventional therapy within two cohorts: 'primary prevention' with 1-5years diabetes duration and 'secondary intervention' with 1-15years diabetes duration and early retinopathy, with or without albuminuria, but no advanced complications. CAD was defined as myocardial infarction (MI) or death judged to be from CAD, silent MI, angina, coronary revascularization, or congestive heart failure due to CAD.
Results: In the entire DCCTcohort, Hp2-2 was not significantly associated with incident CAD or MI. However, in pre-specified exploratory subgroup analyses, an increased MI risk was suggested in the secondary cohort for those with Hp2-2.
Conclusions/interpretation: The analysis does not statistically confirm an overall association between Hp 2-2 and incident CAD, however, some suggestions of associations were observed in secondary analyses.

Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), also known as Müller duct inhibitory factor and primarily known for its role in sexual differentiation. In female fetuses, AMH production by granulosa cells begins around the 36th week of gestation and continues in women until menopause. It is becoming more significant in the endocrine and gynecological diagnosis of adult women.

Background: This study aimed to investigate the effects of oral semaglutide on the changes in food preference of Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes.
Methods: This retrospective multicenter study included 75 patients with type 2 diabetes who received oral semaglutide. The primary outcome was the change in the score of brief-type self-administered diet history questionnaire (BDHQ) score 3 months after the initiation of oral semaglutide treatment.

The excessive accumulation of intrahepatic triglyceride (IHTG) in the liver is a risk factor for metabolic diseases, including type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. IHTG can excessively accumulate owing to imbalances in the delivery, synthesis, storage and disposal of fat to, in and from the liver. Although obesity is strongly associated with IHTG accumulation, emerging evidence suggests that the composition of dietary fat, in addition to its quantity, plays a role in mediating IHTG accumulation.

Background: The optimal control of type 2 diabetes (T2D) is defined by the innate mastery of self-management behaviours. This study is designed to condense the lived experiences of people with T2D in relation to factors 'exterior' to themselves into a universal self-management inventory (Assessment of Self-Management Questionnaire in Diabetes Mellitus-External Reality; ASQ-DM-EX).
Methods: We collected responses to an online and physical survey from people living with T2D through a quantitative cross-sectional study.
