Alcohol consumption may attenuate long-term weight loss in people with Type 2 diabetes

Research shows that losing weight can help prevent or delay the onset of diabetes. While best practice for weight loss often includes decreasing or eliminating calories from alcohol, few studies examine whether people who undergo weight loss treatment report changes in alcohol intake and whether alcohol influences their weight loss.

Very low calorie diet for type 2 diabetes to be prescribed

General Practitioners in England would soon prescribe a very low calorie diet (VLCD) for patients with type 2 diabetes in England as part of an attempt to reverse the increasingly growing numbers of the disease.

New strategy for developing cell replacement therapies to combat type 1 diabetes

Scientists have discovered the signals that determine the fate of immature cells in the pancreas. The research shows that they are very mobile and that their destiny is strongly influenced by their immediate environment.

Study finds 'alarmingly low' prevalence of metabolic health in American adults

The prevalence of metabolic health in American adults is 'alarmingly low,' even among people who are normal weight, according to a new study from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill's Gillings School of Global Public Health.

Researchers identify first genetic risk variants for ADHD

A major international collaboration headed by researchers from the Danish iPSYCH project, the Broad Institute of Harvard and MIT, Massachusetts General Hospital, SUNY Upstate Medical University, and the Psychiatric Genomics Consortium has for the first time identified genetic variants which increase the risk of ADHD.

Researchers discover first common genetic risk factors associated with ADHD

A global team of researchers has found the first common genetic risk factors associated with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, a complex condition affecting around 1 in 20 children.

Project ECHO: A telementoring project launched in Washington, D.C. and Maryland to fight diabetes

In areas of Washington, D.C. and Maryland the prevalence of diabetes is as high as 15 percent in adults. This, coupled with long waitlists at endocrinologist offices, helped to fuel the idea that primary care physicians with advanced training in diabetes could effectively care for complex patients living with diabetes.

Small-area-based open data can help in cost-effective health care service planning

When assessing the effects of socioeconomic status on health inequalities or outcomes of care, it is worthwhile to use small-area-based open data instead of individual SES information, a new study from the University of Eastern Finland shows.

New research project to combat obesity, type 2 diabetes receives NIH funding

A research project headed by a faculty member from the Ohio University Heritage College of Osteopathic Medicine, which will explore whether administering a protein that's produced in the body can help prevent obesity and type 2 diabetes, has received $464,145 in funding from the National Institutes of Health.

New glucose binding molecule could be key to better metabolic control for diabetics

Scientists from the University of Bristol have designed a new synthetic glucose binding molecule platform that brings us one step closer to the development of the world's first glucose-responsive insulin which, say researchers, will transform the treatment of diabetes.

Experts debate over whether gut or brain is more important in regulating appetite

Whether gut or brain hormones are more important for the regulation of appetite and metabolism is not clearly defined. Imbalances in the control of appetite and metabolism can lead to obesity and diabetes, which have a negative impact on people's health and healthcare costs.

Obesity significantly increases risk of Type 2 diabetes and coronary artery disease

A Cleveland Clinic genetic analysis has found that obesity itself, not just the adverse health effects associated with it, significantly increases the risk of Type 2 diabetes and coronary artery disease. The paper was published today in the Journal of the American Medical Association Network Open.
