Dietary Modulations in Preventing Cardiometabolic Risk in Individuals with Type 2 Diabetes
AbstractPurpose of ReviewType 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a complex health issue include obesity, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, and chronic inflammation that increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). CVDs are of great concern in the disease progression and prognosis of T2DM. This review is a comprehensive examination of the literature on the relationship between T2DM and cardiovascular risk, nutrition-related cardiometabolic risk (CMR) factors, and impact of dietary modulations on CMR.Recent FindingsIn recent years the researches has been focus on the importance of a comprehensive treatment approach l...

Management of low-risk papillary thyroid cancer. Minimally-invasive treatments dictate a further paradigm shift?
ConclusionsMITs represent a promising non-surgical option for managing low-risk PTMC, especially for patients ineligible for or refusing surgery. Despite favorable outcomes, more robust prospective data are needed to confirm their long-term benefits and completeness of tumor ablation. Interdisciplinary discussions and thorough patient education on the advantages and limitations of MITs are crucial for informed decision-making. (Source: Endocrine)

Multi-element analysis of metals in human pathological and unchanged thyroid glands – pilot study
AbstractDisturbances in the homeostasis of the elemental composition of thyroid tissue may have serious metabolic and health consequences. It is believed that the accumulation of some metals or the deficiency of others may even cause lethal tumours. Due to the fact that metallomics most often uses human serum to analyse macro and microelements as well as trace elements, it was decided to use material that is more difficult to obtain, but also adds credibility to the research – thyroid tissue samples biopsy. The experiments were conducted on 17 patients diagnosed with: nodular (10) and colloidal goitre (2), chronic thyroi...

Assessment of genetic and clinical factors in T2D susceptibility among patients with hypertension
ConclusionIncorporating clinical and genetic screening into risk assessment is important for the detection and prevention of T2D in patients with HTN. The detected SNPs (rs7865889, rs12737517, and rs10896290), especially the protective SNP (rs12737517), provide an opportunity for better diagnosis, prevention, and therapy of patients with T2D and HTN.

Impact of empagliflozin on first and recurrent events leading to or prolonging hospitalisation in the EMPA-REG OUTCOME trial
In EMPA-REG OUTCOME, empagliflozin reduced the composite of total events leading to/prolonging hospitalisation for any cause and all-cause mortality by 24  % versus placebo in patients with T2DM and ASCVD, with 67.7 events prevented/1000 patient-years and a low NNT. Effects were sustained and were consistent regardless of the reason for hospitalisation. (Source: Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice)

Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease and Ethnicity: Lessons Learned from the Arab Population in Israel
AbstractNon-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common liver disease. We aimed to investigate the potential similarities and differences regarding the disease among Arabs and Jews. Retrospective study included all patients older than 18 years with NAFLD diagnosis according to ICD-10 codes. Data regarding demographics, comorbidities, and outcomes were retrieved using the MdClone platform from “Clalit” in Israel. Data concerning 34,090 Arab patients and 173,500 Jewish patients with NAFLD were included. Arab patients were significantly younger at diagnosis (35.0 ± 13 years vs. 43.6 ± 15 years,p &...
