Are night owls at higher risk for diabetes?

Night owls face a 19% higher risk of developing diabetes compared to early birds, even after accounting for lifestyle factors, according to a study from Brigham and Women's Hospital. The research highlights the importance of sleep patterns in diabetes risk and suggests more personalized work scheduling could be beneficial.

Unlocking the genetic code of blood sugar reveals new diabetes risks and lung complications

The study used a genome-wide association study (GWAS) to analyze random glucose levels in nearly half a million non-diabetic subjects, uncovering 150 distinct genetic signals, including 53 new ones, linked to glycemic traits and type 2 diabetes. The research also discovered a causal effect of random glucose and type 2 diabetes on lung function, identifying lung dysfunction as a new diabetes complication.

Racial and ethnic inequities are substantial in type 2 diabetes after gestational diabetes, study shows

Racial and ethnic inequities in diabetes have been established following gestational diabetes, but these inequities are substantial and have been an overlooked facet of maternal health equity, according to a new study by epidemiologist Teresa Janevic, PhD, associate professor of Epidemiology at Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health. Until now there was limited research on racial and ethnic disparities in type 2 diabetes after gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM).
