Diagnosis and management of post-bariatric surgery hypoglycemia
This article highlights the importance of identifying hypoglycemia in patients with a history of bariatric surgery, reviews pathophysiology and addresses available nutritional, pharmacological and surgical management options. Systemic evaluation including careful history taking, confirmation of hypoglycemia and biochemical assessment is essential to establish accurate diagnosis. Understanding the weight-dependent and weight-independent mechanisms of improved postoperative glycemic control can provide better insight into the causes of the exaggerated responses that lead to postoperative hypoglycemia.EXPERT OPINION: Manageme...

The environmental burden on endocrine neoplasia: a review on the documented impact of endocrine disrupting chemicals
Expert Rev Endocrinol Metab. 2023 Oct 6:1-12. doi: 10.1080/17446651.2023.2268215. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTINTRODUCTION: Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) have gained more importance in the past decade, mostly due to their role in the pathogenesis of disease, especially in carcinogenesis. However, there is limited literature on the environmental burden on some of the less common endocrine neoplasia.AREAS COVERED: This review focuses on both observational and experimental studies linking exposure to EDCs and endocrine neoplasia specifically pituitary, thyroid, adrenal and neuroendocrine tumors. Following PRISMA gui...

The impact of neuropsychological functions on self-care/self-management of type 2 diabetes in middle-aged people: a scoping review and meta-analysis
This study aimed to investigate the impact of neuropsychological functions on self-care/self-management in middle-aged individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2DM).AREAS COVERED: A comprehensive literature search was conducted from January 2012 to April 2023 across multiple databases. Ten articles were included in the scoping review, and 3 articles were included in the meta-analysis. The findings consistently indicated an association between reduced neuropsychological functions and poor self-care/self-management in this population. Memory functions, executive functions, and other domains were found to be significantly related t...
