Electrocardiogram abnormalities and renal impairment in patients with type  2 diabetes mellitus: A healthcare facilities‐based cross‐sectional study in Dang district of Nepal
ConclusionA significant proportion of patients with type  2 diabetes mellitus had ECG abnormalities and renal impairment, which were significantly associated with hypertension. Therefore, hypertension management and early screening are essential to prevent future cardiorenal complications among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Sleep duration and food intake in people with type  2 diabetes mellitus and factors affecting confectionery intake
ConclusionsShort sleep duration is associated with high confectionery intake in people with type  2 diabetes mellitus; this might disturb their glycemic control. Therefore, short sleepers with type 2 diabetes mellitus could improve their glycemic control by avoiding confectionery intake and maintaining adequate sleep duration. Confectionery intake was higher in short sleepers with type 2 diabetes mellitus than normal sleepers. Sleep duration of<6  h was associated with increased confectionery intake. Avoiding confectionery and maintaining adequate sleep duration are crucial. (Source: Journal of Diabetes Investigation)

Risk of fetal undergrowth in the management of gestational diabetes mellitus in Japan
ConclusionsWe established a prospective GDM registry system in Japan. In the management of GDM in Japan, suppression of maternal weight gain may be associated with reduced fetal growth, especially in non-overweight/obese women with GDM; however, further investigation is required.

A newly developed glucagon sandwich ELISA is useful for more accurate glucagon evaluation than the currently used sandwich ELISA in subjects with elevated plasma proglucagon ‐derived peptide levels
ConclusionsThe new ELISA enables more accurate measurement of plasma glucagon than the currently used ELISA, even in subjects with elevated proglucagon-derived peptide levels. It should be clinically useful in elucidating the pathophysiology of individual diabetic patients. (Source: Journal of Diabetes Investigation)

Luseogliflozin and caloric intake restriction increase superoxide dismutase 2 expression, promote antioxidative effects, and attenuate aortic endothelial dysfunction in diet ‐induced obese mice
ConclusionsIt was shown that caloric restriction is important for the effect of luseogliflozin on metabolic parameters and endothelial dysfunction. Furthermore, SGLT2 inhibition by luseogliflozin possibly ameliorates FFA-induced endothelial dysfunction by increasing SOD2 expression and decreasing reactive oxygen species production in the thoracic aorta.

Type 2 diabetes influences intraepithelial corneal nerve parameters and corneal stromal ‐epithelial nerve penetration sites
ConclusionsOur data suggest that diabetic peripheral neuropathy may be preceded by a phase of neuron growth rather than regression, and that the peripheral cornea is more sensitive than the center for detecting changes in innervation. (Source: Journal of Diabetes Investigation)

Which comes first in type  1 diabetes: Autoimmunity or dysglycemia?
A recent study by Warnckeet  al. suggested that islet autoimmunity is associated with or preceded by insults or changes to the pancreatic islets that impair glucose homeostasis, raising the possibility that β-cell insult occurs first, followed by autoimmunity to islets.
