Women in the highest quintile of ferritin concentration were 2.66 times more likely to have diabetes, compared with those in the lowest quintile, the study showed.

Women who develop gestational diabetes or preeclampsia are more likely to develop insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome later in life than other pregnant women, a new study finds.

The antioxidant [alpha]-lipoic acid administered over 3 weeks at a dose of 600 mg/day reduces symptomatic polyneuropathy in over 700 patients with diabetes.

Drinking four or more cups of coffee a day appears to be associated with a lower risk of type 2 diabetes.

One in three American children born in 2000 will develop diabetes in his or her lifetime, according to a new CDC report.

Dr. Aaron I. Vinik, reported at the American Diabetes Association 63rd Annual Scientific Sessions, that a pharmacologic intervention may effectively target the underlying abnormalities that lead to the development of type 2 diabetes.

Follow-up analysis of data from the Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP), showed that diet and exercise can be more effective than pharmacologic therapy at warding off cardiovascular disease in patients with impaired glucose tolerance.

Simple lifestyle modifications may prevent the development of cardiovascular disease in patients with impaired glucose tolerance.
