Impact of gender differences on lifestyle and glycemic control in Japanese patients with diabetes during COVID-19 lockdowns
The COVID-19 pandemic has drastically changed global lifestyles. Some reports about lifestyle changes during this pandemic have been published. However, these studies have not assessed gender differences. Thus, we analyzed three lifestyle changes to determine gender differences. (Source: Primary Care Diabetes)

Moderately hyperglycemia as an independent prognostic factor for the worse outcome of COVID-19
Blood sugar (BS) has been proposed as a prognostic factor for COVID-19. In this historical cohort study we evaluated the association between admission time BS and COVID-19 outcome. (Source: Primary Care Diabetes)

Family Physician Clinical Inertia in Managing Hypoglycemia
Management of the patient with diabetes mellitus (DM) embodies the spirit of primary care medicine. Because of the chronic, progressive, and potentially disabling nature of this illness, family physicians (FP) are often at the cornerstone of diabetes care [1]. This gate-keeping position allows professionals to screen high-risk patients for diabetes, initiate treatment, manage hyperglycemia, monitor, and fine-tune pharmacologic therapies, as well as detect and manage microvascular and macrovascular complications.

2022 update to the position statement by Primary Care Diabetes Europe: a disease state approach to the pharmacological management of type 2 diabetes in primary care
New and emerging medical therapies and evidence have changed the landscape for managing people with type 2 diabetes (T2D) with established cardiovascular disease (CVD) and those with cardiovascular risk factors. Previously, guidelines gauged good diabetes care primarily based on glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) targets [1], but recent updates have represented a major shift, now recommending a multimorbidity risk management approach, mainly based on cardiovascular outcome trials (CVOTs). Effective glycaemic control also remains an important consideration for prevention or improvement of microvascular disease. (Source: Primary Care Diabetes)

Effectiveness of clinical pharmacist-led smartphone application on medication adherence, insulin injection technique and glycemic control for women with gestational diabetes receiving multiple daily insulin injection: A randomized clinical trial
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) prevalence is growing worldwide with an increase of 5.2% –5.6% from 2012 to 2016, and it was estimated to be 14.8% in mainland China in 2019 [1,2]. Gestational Hyperglycemia is well-known to be related to remarkable increased risks of short- and long-term complications for the woman and her baby. Evidence has indicated that barriers for antenatal satisf actory glycemic control include unsound health care system; insufficient education on GDM and related treatment; and suboptimal adherence to pharmacotherapy [3].

Diabetes and driving safety in India: The internet as a valuable source of information
We read with interest the article by Waris et al., “Attitudes to driving among patients with diabetes mellitus in Punjab (ADD-Punjab study)“, published in Primary Care Diabetes [1]. Information about attitudes to driving was obtained from 150 people with diabetes (34 % of whom were taking insulin and 66% secretagogues). Around 4% of people recei ving therapies that can induce hypoglycemia, experience a road traffic incident every year, but only 32% were aware that hypoglycemia posed a risk to driving, and 88.6% never measured their blood glucose before driving.

Clinical profiling and screening for HNF4 α and GCK gene mutations in Kashmiri patients with maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY)
Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is a relatively uncommon (1 –5%) but widely recognized form of diabetes in the younger generation. It is a non-insulin-dependent, monogenic, heterogeneous illness defined by disrupted pancreatic β-cell behavior that is transmitted in a familial autosomal dominant pattern and is commonly diagnosed at the age of 25 [1–3]. T o avoid unnecessary screening, it is critical to rule out type1 and type2 diabetes during the molecular evaluation of MODY. MODY is diagnosed using three marker genes: hepatocyte nuclear factor 4 alpha (HNF4α), hepatocyte nuclear factor 1 alpha (HNF1α), a...
