Development and validation of a prediction model for self ‐reported hypoglycemia risk in patients with type 2 diabetes: A longitudinal cohort study
ConclusionsThe study developed 3 and 6 month hypoglycemia risk prediction models for patients with type 2 diabetes. The discrimination and calibration of the two prediction models were good, and might help to improve clinical decision-making and guide patients to more reasonable self-care and hypoglycemia prevention at home.

Microvascular permeability and texture analysis of bone marrow in diabetic rabbits with critical limb ischemia based on dynamic contrast ‐enhanced magnetic resonance imaging
ConclusionsThe early stages of diabetic bone marrow with CLI can be evaluated by DCE-MRI for microvascular permeability. Texture analysis based on DCE-MRI could act as an imaging discriminator and new radiological analysis tool for critical limb ischemia in diabetes mellitus. (Source: Journal of Diabetes Investigation)

Prevalence and characteristics of diabetic symmetric sensorimotor polyneuropathy in Japanese patients with type  2 diabetes: The Japan Diabetes Complication and its Prevention Prospective study (JDCP study 10)
This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and characteristics of diabetic symmetric sensorimotor polyneuropathy (DSPN) in patients with type  2 diabetes registered in the Japan Diabetes Complication and its Prevention Prospective study. In the study, 6,338 patients with diabetes who had been treated by diabetes specialists were registered in 2007–2009. Of these, patients with type 2 diabetes who could be evaluated for DSPN were ana lyzed using thet-test, χ2-test and logistic regression analyses. DSPN was diagnosed using the Simple Diagnostic Criteria for Diabetic Polyneuropathy proposed by the Diabetic Neuropat...

Overnutrition in the early postnatal period influences lifetime metabolic risk: Evidence for impact on pancreatic β‐cell mass and function
Diabetes causes substantial morbidity and mortality worldwide, as well as high societal cost. Risk of metabolic disease in adulthood increases in people with accelerated childhood growth trajectory. This review explores the metabolic impact of postnatal overnutrition in humans and in rodent models, with specific attention to the connection between accelerated childhood growth and future adiposity, insulin resistance, β-cell mass and β-cell dysfunction. AbstractOverconsumption of energy-rich foods that disrupt caloric balance is a fundamental cause of overweight, obesity and diabetes. Dysglycemia and the resulting cardiov...

Resistant starch and type 2 diabetes mellitus: Clinical perspective
Starch is a significant source of carbohydrates and resistant starch, which is a non-viscous fermentable fiber, has shown to enhance glucose metabolism. The efficacy of resistant starch as a medical nutrition therapy for type 2 diabetes needs further investigation. AbstractThe immediate and well-documented benefits of carbohydrate restriction include improved glycemic control in individuals with diabetes mellitus. Starch, a significant source of carbohydrates, is categorized as rapidly digestible, slowly digestible, or resistant starch (RS). RS, which is a non-viscous fermentable fiber, has shown promise in animal studies ...

New diagnostic criteria (2023) for slowly progressive type 1 diabetes (SPIDDM): Report from Committee on Type 1 Diabetes of the Japan Diabetes Society (English version)
The diagnostic criteria for slowly progressive type 1 diabetes (slowly progressive insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus; SPIDDM) have been revised by the Committee on Type 1 Diabetes of the Japan Diabetes Society. AbstractThe diagnostic criteria for slowly progressive type 1 diabetes (slowly progressive insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus; SPIDDM) have been revised by the Committee on Type 1 Diabetes of the Japan Diabetes Society. All of the following three criteria must be met for ‘a definitive diagnosis of SPIDDM’: (1) presence of anti-islet autoantibodies at some point in time during the disease course; (2) absence o...

Prognostic value of longitudinal HbA1c variability in predicting the development of diabetic sensorimotor polyneuropathy among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: A prospective cohort observational study
ConclusionsApart from age and diabetes duration, HbA1c variability emerged as a robust predictor for the occurrence of new DSPN. Among the various measures of HbA1c variability evaluated, HbA1c ARV demonstrated the highest potential as a reliable indicator for anticipating the onset of new DSPN.
