Objective: This study aims to investigate the associations between rs724030 A>G variant and prediabetes risk, along with their correlations with clinical features, including plasma glucose and serum insulin levels during oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), islet function, insulin resistance, and plasma lipid levels. In particular, we investigated whether there are sex dimorphisms in the impact of this variant on islet function/insulin resistance.
Methods: We included 3415 glucose-tolerant healthy and 1744 prediabetes individuals based on OGTT.

Objective: To investigate the effect of visualizing blood glucose variability by intermittently scanned continuous glucose monitoring (isCGM) on weight reduction in overweight individuals with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) or mild type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
Materials And Methods: Forty overweight (BMI, ≥25 kg/m2) individuals with IGT or T2DM (drug naïve; HbA1c, ≤7.0 %) were included in this 24-week randomized controlled trial.

Background: Olaparib is a relatively new poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitor (PARPi) administered to ovarian cancer (OC) patients with a complete or partial response to first-line chemotherapy. One of the metabolic side effects of olaparib is the disruption of glucose homeostasis, often resulting in hyperglycemia The study was a retrospective analysis of olaparib-induced hyperglycemia in OC patients with initial normoglycemia following the first, second, and third month of olaparib treatment METHODS: The study involved 32 OC patients, classified into three groups according to their Body Mass Index (BMI): normal BMI (BMI 18.5-24.
