MODY, cystic fibrosis, and Wolfram syndrome all have something in common. Believe it or not, they are all a form of diabetes. This week, our Clinical Text from the Handbook of Diabetes looks at these and other types or non-traditional causes of diabetes.

Our Homerun Slides focus on how to properly diagnosis diabetes using the beta cell gene construct, and our review of the worldwide diabetes epidemic continues with the Middle East and North Africa where we see that the more wealthy a country is the more likely they are to have increased rates of diabetes. Our Mastery In Minutes video explores the future potential of CGM technology to both lower rates of hypoglycemia and diabetes healthcare costs.
