Objective: The aim of study is to re-evaluate the risk-benefits of intensive glycemic control in the context of multi-factorial intervention in adults with T2D.
Methods: We searched Ovid MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane, and CINHAL for randomized control trials comparing standard glucose targets to intensive glucose targets with pre-specified HbAlevels. Subgroup analysis was also performed to account for the inclusion of glucose only versus multi-factorial intervention trials. Results are reported as risk ratio (RR) and 95% confidence interval (CI).
Results: Fifty-seven publications including 19 trials were included. Compared to conventional glycemic control, intensive glycemic control decreased the risk of non-fatal myocardial infarction (0.8, 0.7-0.91), macroalbuminuria (0.72, 0.5--0.87), microalbuminuria (0.67, 0.52-0.85), major amputation (0.6, 0.38-0.96), retinopathy (0.75 ,0.63-0.9), and nephropathy (0.78, 0.63-0.97). The risk of hypoglycemia increased with intensive glycemic control than conventional treatment (2.04, 1.34-3.1). No reduction in all-cause or cardiovascular mortality was observed. However, in the context of multifactorial intervention, intensive glucose control was associated with a significant reduction in all-cause mortality (0.74, 0.57-0.95).
Conclusion: Targeting HbA levels should be individualized based on the clinical status, balancing risks and benefits and potential risk for developing these complications among people with T2D.

Objectives: Exocrine pancreatic insufficiency has been demonstrated in type 1 diabetes (T1D); lower concentrations of pancreatic enzymes have been associated with metabolic risk (MR). Influence of puberty and MR factors on serum concentrations of amylase and lipase remain unexplored in Indian youth with T1D. 1) To characterize and predict determinants of serum amylase and lipase concentrations in adolescents/youth with T1D.

Objective: To investigate the effects of discordant medication beliefs on diabetes self-management and glycemic control in older Black individuals with diabetes and Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI).
Methods: Cross-sectional analysis of baseline data from two clinical trials testing behavioral interventions to improve glycemic control in older Black primary care patients with diabetes and MCI.
Results: The mean number of discordant medication beliefs was 6 (SD = 3; range 0 to 16).

Mild cognitive impairment is increasingly recognized as a complication of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Although currently no disease-modifying treatments for cognitive disorders exist, interest surged in potential neuroprotective effects of newer anti-diabetic drugs. This study investigates the impact of newer anti-diabetic drug classes, dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4i) and sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) - on cognitive decline in T2D patients on metformin therapy.

Introduction: Smoking affects glycemic control in individuals with type1 diabetes (T1D); however, its impact in the era of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) has not been thoroughly studied.
Materials And Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted at two centers, involving 405 T1D patients treated with multiple daily insulin injections and using CGM. The patients were matched using propensity scores based on sociodemographic and clinical characteristics.
