Establishing Reference Ranges for Aldosterone, Renin and Aldosterone-to-Renin Ratio for Women in the Third-Trimester of Pregnancy
Conclusions There is an upward shift in aldosterone and renin reference ranges in the third-trimester of pregnancy accompanied by an increase in an aldosterone-to-renin ratio, that is not influenced by posture. It remains to be established whether the aldosterone-to-renin ratio may be used as a screening tool for primary hyperaldosteronism in pregnancy.

Diurnal Salivary Cortisol Profiles in Patients with Cushing ’s Syndrome
In this study, we aimed to analyze salivary cortisol day profiles in patients with different types of CS to test whether specific patterns might be relevant for diagnosis and subtyping. Material and Methods Among 428 patients including those with confirmed Cushing’s syndrome (N=111, of those 75 with Cushing’s disease, 27 patients with adrenal CS and nine patients with ectopic CS), autonomous cortisol secretion (N=39) or exclusion of CS (control group, N=278) salivary cortisol was measured five times a day. Results At each of the five time points, salivary cortisol was significantly higher in patients with CS compared t...

Effectiveness of High-intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) Therapy of Solid and Complex Benign Thyroid Nodules – A Long-term Follow up Two-center Study
Conclusion The study showed that HIFU is an effective treatment method for both solid and complex nodules. The complication rate is relatively high at 5.2%. No long-term complications occurred. The solid nodules responded better to HIFU than complex nodules.

Novel Insight into the Mechanism of Metabolic Surgery Causing the Diversity in Glycemic Status in Type 2 Diabetes
Exp Clin Endocrinol Diabetes DOI: 10.1055/a-1708-3214Metabolic surgery results in diverse glycemic status in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D), including hyperglycemia without remission, significant amelioration of hyperglycemia with partial remission, complete restoration of euglycemia, or with prolonged remission, hyperglycemia recurrence in relapses after remission, or post-bariatric hypoglycemia. Unfortunately, it is not known how metabolic surgery leads to this diverse consequence. Here, we discuss the diversity of glycemic status associated with metabolic ...

Direct Costs of Healthcare for Children with Type 1 Diabetes Using a CGM System: A Health Economic Analysis of the VIDIKI Telemedicine Study in a German Setting
Conclusion The cost development within the cost collection period over two years possibly reflects the switch to higher-priced medical supplies. Video consultation as an add-on service resulted in a small but nonsignificant reduction in the overall costs.

Serum NT-pro-BNP Levels Predict Cardiovascular Events in Acromegaly Patients
Conclusions High NT-pro-BNP value is an independent middle-term predictor of fatal or non-fatal CV events in patients with acromegaly. According to this parameter, surgically treated patients show lower CV risk than those managed with medical therapy, especially if the disease is cured.

Dispensation Patterns of Glucose-Lowering Drugs in Newly Diagnosed Type 2 Diabetes: Routine Data Analysis of Insurance Claims in Germany
Conclusions Data from German statutory health insurances (2012 to 2016) showed that most individuals with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes were dispensed metformin monotherapy in line with diabetes care guidelines. A substantial decrease in the use of sulfonylureas was observed after the introduction of DPP-4i and GLP-1 receptor agonists.

Reductions in Intestinal Taurine-Conjugated Bile Acids and Short-Chain Fatty Acid-Producing Bacteria Might be Novel Mechanisms of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in Otsuka Long-Evans Tokushima Fatty Rats
Conclusion The fecal BAs profiles and microbiota structure among OLETF rats were different from those of LETO rats during the entire course of T2DM development, indicating that reductions in intestinal T-BAs and specific SCFA-producing bacteria may be potential mechanisms of T2DM in OLETF rats.

Comparison of Beinaglutide Versus Metformin for Weight Loss in Overweight and Obese Non-diabetic Patients
Conclusions Beinaglutide is more efficient than metformin at reducing weight and fat mass in patients who are overweight/obese and non-diabetic. Beinaglutide may be a useful therapeutic option for overweight/obesity control in the Chinese population.

Shear Wave Elastography Reveals a High Prevalence of NAFLD-related Fibrosis Even in Type 1 Diabetes
Conclusions Our data revealed an unexpectedly high prevalence of NAFLD-related liver fibrosis in patients with type 1 diabetes. To our knowledge, this is one of the first studies using SWE to diagnose advanced NAFLD in type 1 diabetes in a non-preselected cohort. Considering the findings of our study, regular screening for hepatic complications must be recommended for all diabetic patients, even for those with type 1 diabetes.
