Aim: To evaluate glycaemic control and its influence on albuminuria and bone mineral density (BMD) in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes (T1D).
Methods: We collectively assessed 84 T1D children/adolescents (T1D group), aged between 6 and 17 years, and then divided them into two groups according to their glycaemic profile (T1D with good glycaemic control (T1DG group) and T1D with poor glycaemic control (T1DP group)). Serum glucose, glycated haemoglobin, serum urea, serum creatinine, urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR), estimated glomerular filtration rate and BMD levels were assessed.
Results: Of the patients studied, 77% presented with poor glycaemic control. Patients with T1DP showed an increased ACR (P < 0.001) and a low BMD (P = 0.025) when compared to the T1DG group. In addition, five patients in the T1DP group presented with concomitant albuminuria and a low BMD for their chronological age. Significant negative correlations were identified between the ACR and glycated haemoglobin (r = 0.655, P < 0.001), BMD and glycated haemoglobin (r = -0.262, P = 0.047) and BMD and the ACR (r = -0.631, P = <0.001). In linear regression analysis, the ACR showed a negative effect on BMD (P = 0.044) in the T1D patient group.
Conclusion: Poor glycaemic control was correlated with albuminuria, suggestive of a negative effect on bone tissue, leading to a low BMD in children and adolescents with T1D.

Association of Albumin-To-Creatinine Ratio With Diabetic Retinopathy Among US Adults (NHANES 2009-2016).

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.

Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) poses a significant public health challenge in Australia, particularly among underserved populations such as First Nations people and rural communities. In response, the Together Strong Connected Care (TSCC) programme was developed to address these disparities by offering a culturally appropriate, multidisciplinary approach to diabetes management in a regional hospital setting.
Aims: The aim of the study was to assess the impact of the TSCC programme on glycaemic and metabolic control in people living with diabetes.
Perioperative Use of GLP-1 Receptor Agonists in Patients Undergoing Cardiac Procedures: A Scoping Review.

Background: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA) therapies are increasingly used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus and obesity. Despite growing awareness of potentially increased risk of pulmonary aspiration due to delayed gastric emptying, the risks and benefits of their perioperative use in patients undergoing cardiac procedures remains unexplored. A scoping review was performed to investigate the perioperative GLP-1RA use in patients undergoing cardiac procedures and recommendations.

Background: Diabetes-related cognitive impairment is increasingly recognized as a significant complication, profoundly impacting patients' quality of life. This review aims to examine the pathophysiological mechanisms, clinical manifestations, risk factors, assessment and diagnosis, management strategies, and future research directions of cognitive impairment in diabetes.
Methodology: A comprehensive literature search was conducted using PubMed, Medline, and other medical databases to identify, review, and evaluate published articles on cognitive impairment in diabetes.

Objectives: To retrospectively investigate the effect of a mobile app-based self-care diary, a nursing management method, on post-heart transplantation diabetes.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the general data of 87 patients who underwent heart transplantation in the Cardiac and Thoracic Vascular Surgery Department of Nanjing First Hospital between January 2018 and December 2023. Based on the nursing method, the patients were divided into a control group that received routine nursing measures (n=47 cases) and an observation group that implemented a mobile APP-based self-care diary combined with nursing (n=40 cases).
