Many people with type 1 diabetes live with the constant fear of blood glucose dropping too low. Even today’s most advanced automated insulin delivery systems cannot actively raise glucose once levels begin to fall. Instead, they can only reduce or suspend insulin delivery. A dual-hormone artificial pancreas system changes that …

The treatment landscape for type 2 diabetes has changed dramatically over the past decade. While selective SGLT2 inhibitors have become a cornerstone of diabetes management because of their proven cardiovascular and kidney benefits, researchers are now exploring the added potential of dual SGLT1/2 inhibitor therapy for people with diabetes. By …

Early detection has always been one of the biggest challenges in diabetes care. What if doctors could identify patients at high risk for diabetic neuropathy or kidney disease years before symptoms developed? That possibility is driving exciting new research into IgG glycosylation in diabetes, an emerging area that examines subtle …

Diabetes affects far more than blood sugar. In fact, the earliest stages of diabetic retinal disease may begin years before an eye doctor can see the classic signs of diabetic retinopathy during a routine examination. Imagine a smoke detector that alerts you before you ever see flames. That is the …

Diabetes is known for raising blood sugar levels, but its long-term complications often have the greatest impact on health. Kidney disease, vision loss, nerve damage, and cardiovascular disease affect millions of people living with diabetes. For years, researchers focused on inflammation, oxidative stress, and poor circulation to explain these complications. …

Most people think diabetes-related blood vessel damage begins only after years of high blood sugar. However, scientists are uncovering evidence that injury may start much earlier, in a structure so thin it cannot be seen during a routine medical exam. This microscopic layer, known as the endothelial glycocalyx, acts as …

New research is changing the conversation around protein and metabolic health. For years, high-protein diets have been praised for supporting weight loss, preserving muscle, and improving blood sugar control. However, scientists are now discovering that the story may be more complex. Rather than blaming protein itself, researchers are focusing on …

When a person develops diabetes at a young age, is not overweight, and has several family members with the condition, is it really type 2 diabetes? In many cases, the answer may be no. A growing body of evidence suggests that thousands of people worldwide are living with HNF1A-MODY, a …

The transition from pediatric to adult diabetes care is one of the most challenging periods in the lives of young people with diabetes. While many adolescents successfully manage their condition with the support of pediatric diabetes teams, moving into adult healthcare often coincides with worsening blood glucose control, missed appointments, …

For years, diabetic kidney disease (DKD) has been viewed as a single condition that progresses in a fairly predictable way. However, new research suggests that this assumption may overlook important biological differences between patients. Scientists have now identified a previously hidden subtype of diabetic kidney disease marked by increased B-cell …
