Aims: The aims of this study was to determine the prevalence and to compare depression and anxiety screening scores by type of diabetes: type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), and pre-diabetes. The secondary aim was to examine sex differences in screening scores by type of diabetes.
Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in Doha, Qatar using primary data collection (N = 150), and stratified random sampling at a diabetes primary healthcare center. The study tool collected demographic information and used validated mental health screening tools for depressive symptoms "Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9)", and for anxiety symptoms "Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7 (GAD-7)".
Results: The prevalence of moderate to severe depressive and anxiety scores was highest in the prediabetes group (20 % and 14 % respectively). There were increased PHQ-9 scores in the pre-diabetes group compared to T2DM (p-value <0.05). No statistically significant differences in depressive symptom scores were found when comparing the pre-diabetes group with T1DM, and T1DM with T2DM. When looking at sex differences, there were no statistically significant differences between T1DM and pre-diabetes males and females, however PHQ-9 and GAD-7 scores in T2DM females were poorer compared to T2DM males.
Conclusion: The results of our study found patients living with pre-diabetes, and females with T2DM are vulnerable populations who should be screened for mental health disorders. Early screening for mental health disorders for individuals diagnosed with prediabetes, T1DM, and T2DM should be routinely conducted to potentially improve health outcomes.

The endocannabinoid system (ECS), regulating such processes as energy homeostasis, inflammation, and muscle function, centers around cannabinoid receptors, including CB1. These receptors are mainly located in the central nervous system and skeletal muscles. Hyperactivity of CB1 receptors is linked to metabolic disorders and chronic inflammation, highlighting their potential as therapeutic targets for muscle hypertrophy and metabolic health.

Background: Depression constitutes a risk factor for osteoporosis, but underlying molecular and cellular mechanisms are not fully understood. MiRNAs influence gene expression and are carried by extracellular vesicles (EV), affecting cell-cell communication.
Aims: (1) Identify the difference in miRNA expression between depressed patients and healthy controls; (2) Analyze associations of these miRNAs with bone turnover markers; (3) Analyze target genes of differentially regulated miRNAs and predict associated pathways regarding depression and bone metabolism.
EValuating Glucose ContrOL Using a Next-GeneraTION Automated Insulin Delivery Algorithm in Patients with Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes: The EVOLUTION Study.

This study evaluated a next-generation automated insulin delivery (AID) algorithm for Omnipod in type 1 and type 2 diabetes across multiple phases: 14-day run-in with usual therapy, 48-h AID use in a hotel setting (type 1 only), and up to 6 weeks of outpatient AID use. Participants did, or did not, deliver manual boluses at alternating periods. Twelve adults with type 1 diabetes completed the hotel phase; 9 of those 12 plus 8 adults with type 2 diabetes completed the subsequent outpatient phase.

Background: It has been revealed that the potential utility of the triglycerides and glucose (TyG) index as an effective option for assessing glycemic control; however, evidence in this field is still scarce.
Aims: The goal of this study was to investigate the diagnostic accuracy of the TyG index, as an alternative option, to detect inadequate glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D).
Methods: Men and women between 30 and 60 years of age diagnosed with type 2 diabetes were included in a cross-sectional study.
Subtypes of Insulin Restriction in Diabetes Management: A Systematic Review.

Purpose Of Review: Insulin restriction is commonly studied as a form of disordered eating, but people may restrict insulin for many reasons. This systematic review examined how insulin restriction has been conceptualized and measured, and its associated predictors and outcomes.
Recent Findings: Forty-seven unique articles measured non-specified insulin restriction (IR), insulin restriction specifically for weight control (IRWC), or both.
