Background: This systematic literature review (PROSPERO registration: CRD42022327974) examined the duration of uncontrolled hyperglycemia (glycated hemoglobin [HbA] ≥ 7.0%; ≥ 53 mmol/mol) before basal insulin initiation in insulin-naive people with type 2 diabetes who were receiving concomitant oral glucose-lowering agents or injectable glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist therapy.
Methods: Databases (Embase and MEDLINE) were searched to identify relevant articles published between January 1, 2001, and April 19, 2023. Supplementary searches were completed for relevant congresses between 2018 and 2023.
Results: Of the 4260 de-duplicated publications identified, 18 eligible publications (conducted in: Europe, n = 5; USA, n = 8; Asia/Middle East, n = 4; and Africa, n = 1) reported time spent with HbA 7.0% or higher (≥ 53 mmol/mol). Overall, time in uncontrolled hyperglycemia ranged from 1.9 months to 86.4 months (Europe, 9.0-86.4 months; USA, 1.9-58.3 months; Asia/Middle East, 3.3-40.1 months; Africa, 36 months).
Conclusions: There is a widespread delay in insulin treatment initiation in clinical practice. This delay exists despite availability of novel insulin types and the development of evidence-based treatment guidelines, suggesting that further efforts are needed to improve implementation of these guidelines in clinical practice.

Diabetes Mellitus (DM), one of the oldest known metabolic disorders, dates back to 3000 BC and continues to have a profound impact on health and the economy. Nutrition plays a critical role in managing diabetes and enhancing overall quality of life. It is also vital for immune system function, as well as in the prevention and treatment of aging-related diseases.

Diabetes mellitus (DM) causes numerous systemic diseases in animals and humans. This may also lead to reproductive problems among individuals of reproductive age. Detrimental effects such as apoptosis in ovarian granulosa cells, degradation of communication proteins, decreased oocyte quality, delayed meiotic maturation, and atrophy are among the increasing evidence that chronic hyperglycemia causes reproductive problems.

Article Synopsis
- Copper sulfate is commonly used in labs, with rare cases of poisoning; only 140 exposures were reported in a year, and five were intentional (Gummin et al., 2023).
- Severe copper sulfate poisoning can lead to gastrointestinal injury, hemolysis, and muscle damage, but no long-term hyperglycemia has been previously reported.
- This case study examines the treatment of a patient who ingested a large dose of copper sulfate, resulting in prolonged uncontrolled hyperglycemia and multiple organ dysfunction, stressing the need for careful monitoring and management post-poisoning.

Article Synopsis
- Obesity and type 2 diabetes pose major public health issues that affect global health significantly.
- The focus of effective treatments is shifting toward the central nervous system and how it regulates metabolism, especially using incretin-based medications.
- This review aims to summarize the latest research on the neural pathways related to key receptors involved in metabolic control, specifically glucagon-like peptide-1, glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide, and glucagon.
