Can smartphone nudges reduce evening snacking in type 2 diabetes? Explore new CGM research, early results, and implications for personalized care.

Discover what the OPTI-ONE study reveals about type 1 diabetes foot screening, annual exams, and whether low-risk patients need fewer visits.

New EASD research links neurodiversity and type 2 diabetes in younger people, highlighting ADHD, autism, and the need for tailored diabetes care.

Gestational diabetes is usually treated as a single diagnosis, but growing evidence suggests the biology behind it can vary considerably from one patient to another. Researchers studying gestational diabetes phenotypes have identified metabolic patterns involving differences in insulin resistance, insulin secretion, or both. These findings raise an important question: Could …

Insulin resistance is often discussed as though it were one metabolic problem affecting the entire body equally. However, emerging research suggests the picture is more complex. Tissue-specific insulin resistance means that fat, muscle, the liver, and other tissues may not respond to insulin in the same way. More importantly, resistance …

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 …

Finding the right diabetes medication often involves trial and error. One patient may respond well to a GLP-1 receptor agonist, while another sees little benefit from the same treatment. As a result, clinicians frequently adjust medications before finding the most effective option. What if doctors could test a patient’s response …

For many years, C-peptide testing was viewed as a simple tool to distinguish type 1 diabetes from type 2 diabetes. However, the story has changed. As researchers gain a better understanding of pancreatic beta-cell function, C-peptide testing in diabetes has become much more valuable than a diagnostic aid alone. Today, …

Many women with diabetes notice that blood sugar levels become harder to control during certain weeks of the month. Despite eating the same meals, taking the same insulin doses, and maintaining consistent activity levels, glucose readings may suddenly climb. This recurring pattern is often linked to luteal phase insulin resistance, …

For decades, A1C has served as the gold standard for assessing long-term glucose control in people with diabetes. However, it tells only part of the story. Researchers are now exploring whether metabolic flexibility could become an important biomarker in diabetes, offering a deeper understanding of metabolic health than A1C alone. …
