New-Onset Diabetes After Androgen-Deprivation Therapy For Prostate Cancer: A Nationwide Propensity Score-Matched Four-Year Longitudinal Cohort Study
Androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT) is important in the treatment of prostate cancer. However, the relationship between ADT and the risk of diabetes remains unclear, and the association between duration and types of ADT has not been fully investigated.AimTo examine the risk of developing type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in men who underwent ADT for prostate cancer.

Psoas and paraspinous muscle index as a predictor of mortality in African American men with type 2 diabetes mellitus
Recent studies revealed a correlation between skeletal muscle mass index and density with longevity; these studies largely evaluated appendicular skeletal muscles in older Caucasians. This retrospective cohort study assessed the association between axial skeletal muscles size and density with survival in African Americans with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Amino acid levels in nascent metabolic syndrome: A contributor to the pro-inflammatory burden
Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) is a cluster of cardio-metabolic risk factors characterized by low-grade inflammation which confers an increased risk for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Prior studies have linked elevated branched chain amino acids (BCAA) and aromatic amino acids (AAA) with T2DM and CVD. Due to the paucity of data in MetS, the aim of this study was to investigate the status of amino acids as early biomarkers of nascent MetS patients without T2DM and CVD or smoking.
