Surveillance of the liver in type 2 diabetes: important but unfeasible

Surveillance of the liver in type 2 diabetes: important but unfeasible

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38334817/

Fatty liver plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of the metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes. According to an updated classification, any individual with liver steatosis and one or...

Early detection of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) in type 2 diabetes is crucial, emphasizing the need for more accurate screening strategies and effective management through weight loss interventions and emerging fibrosis biomarkers.

In adults with T2DM, SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP1 agonists (but not DPP4 inhibitors, insulin, or tirzepatide) reduce all-cause mortality and MACE compared with usual care.

CGM use compared with SMBG is associated with improvements in glycaemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes. However, all studies were open label. In addition, outcome data on incident severe hypoglycaemia and incident microvascular and macrovascular complications were scarce.

Remission of type 2 diabetes: always more questions, but enough answers for action

Remission of type 2 diabetes: always more questions, but enough answers for action

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38189935/

The concept of type 2 diabetes remission is evolving rapidly, and gaining wide public and professional interest, following demonstration that with substantial intentional weight loss almost nine in ten people...

Intentional weight loss >10-15 kg can lead to type 2 diabetes remission, improving HbA1c and metabolic health. Early intervention and sustainable weight management are crucial for long-term success.

Prediabetes and poorly controlled type-2 diabetes as risk indicators for peri-implant diseases:A systematic review and meta-analysis

Prediabetes and poorly controlled type-2 diabetes as risk indicators for peri-implant diseases:A systematic review and meta-analysis

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38788918/

Clinicians should measure blood HbA1c levels when planning implant-supported restorations, thus patients with undiagnosed or poorly controlled type-2 diabetes can be identified, that allows for glycemic level adjustment prior to...

Patients with poorly controlled type-2 diabetes or prediabetes may have worse peri-implant conditions compared to patients without diabetes and well-controlled type-2 diabetes. Well-controlled type-2 diabetes is not a risk indicator for peri-implant diseases.
