Objective: Managing blood glucose levels is challenging for elite athletes with type 1 diabetes (T1D) as competition can cause unpredictable fluctuations. While fear of hypoglycemia during physical activity is well documented, research on hyperglycemia-related anxiety (HRA) is limited. HRA refers to the heightened fear that hyperglycemia-related symptoms will impair functioning.

We report the case of a 29-year-old male soldier with a time in service above 10 years, found to have asymptomatic long QT syndrome (LQTS), a condition associated with increased risk of potentially fatal ventricular arrhythmias, during a flight physical. A review of his past medical history revealed a transient QT prolongation during an episode of hypoglycemia due to endogenous hyperinsulinism caused by an insulinoma, as an infantryman 7 years earlier; the resolution of the QT prolongation was spontaneous. He was evaluated and considered fit for duty by cardiology.

In this article, we review the study by Jin , which examined the role of intestinal glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) in counterregulatory responses to hypoglycemia in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). With the global rise of T1DM, there is an increased burden on society and healthcare systems. Due to insulin therapy and islet dysfunction, T1DM patients are highly vulnerable to severe hypoglycemia, a leading cause of mortality.

Background: Cardiovascular disease is a major cause of increasing morbidity and mortality in type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). Although insulin therapy is the cornerstone of T1DM, its difficult use and narrow therapeutic index make it difficult for patients to reach glycated haemoglobin targets, increasing the risk of cardiovascular events. Therefore, the combination of sodium-glucose transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) can likely improve or provide more cardiovascular benefits to patients with T1DM.

Introduction: Glucagon-like peptide-1 agonists have gained attention in recent years due to their efficacy in managing type II diabetes mellitus and their emerging role in weight management. The purpose of this study was to characterize glucagon-like peptide-1 agonist exposures reported to a single United States regional poison center over nine years, including causes of exposure, associated clinical effects, and potential areas for improving patient education and safety.
Methods: This retrospective cohort study analyzed all poison center calls involving glucagon-like peptide-1 agonists submitted to a single United States regional poison center from 14 January 2014 to 1 May 2023.
