Women who develop type 1 diabetes at early age have increased risk of premature death

Women who developed type 1 diabetes before the age of ten years die an average of nearly 18 years earlier than women who do not have diabetes.

Obesity in PTSD patients accounts for increased risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus

Saint Louis University research finds post-traumatic stress disorder does not directly lead to type 2 diabetes mellitus, instead obesity in PTSD patients accounts for the increased risk.

Researchers find potential therapeutic target for treating obesity and diabetes

A newly published study by researchers from the University of Colorado School of Medicine has identified a potential therapeutic target for treating obesity and diabetes.

Ketogenic diet may raise risk of diabetes finds study

Ketogenic diet is a form of diet that consists of high fat and protein content and very low carbohydrate content. It has been known to promote weight loss and is considered to healthy. It has been adopted by many people globally.

Researchers describe new class of potent inhibitors against amyloid plaques

Effective therapeutics to counteract the formation of amyloid plaques in Alzheimer's disease and type 2 diabetes are not yet available.

Responsive parenting intervention promotes healthy weight in young children

An intervention designed to promote healthy growth that taught first-time moms how to respond with age-appropriate responses to their babies' needs resulted in children having lower body mass indexes when they were three years old.

New research shows that ketogenic diets may increase risk of Type 2 diabetes

New research published in The Journal of Physiology indicates that ketogenic diets, which are low carbohydrate high fat eating plans that are known to lead to weight loss, may cause an increased risk of Type 2 diabetes in the early stage of the diet.

Diet rich in whole grain carbohydrates less likely to damage oral health

An examination of research on oral health, commissioned by the World Health Organisation, has indicated that for oral health we should stick to whole grain carbohydrates and avoid processed ones, especially if sweet.

Study could help explain why Asians often develop diabetes at a lower body weight

A new UC San Francisco study has discovered a key biological difference in how people of European and Chinese descent put on weight -- a finding that could help explain why Asians often develop type 2 diabetes at a much lower body weight than Caucasians.

Red blood cells contribute to cardiovascular diseases in patients with type 2 diabetes

Harmful effects of substances secreted from red blood cells could explain the increased risk of cardiovascular diseases in patients with type 2 diabetes, the results of two new studies conducted at Karolinska Institutet in Sweden indicate.

Medicaid expansion making diabetes meds more accessible to poor, study shows

Low-income people with diabetes are better able to afford their medications and manage their disease in states that expanded Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act, a new study suggests.

IU researchers receive $1.5 million NIH grant to advance study on diabetes risks

A $1.5 million grant from the National Institutes of Health will advance work by Indiana University researchers that seeks to identify Americans at risk for diabetes and other metabolic disorders based on their exposure to trace minerals in the environment.

Claudia Langenberg wins Helmholtz International Fellow Award

"Claudia Langenberg is known for her research on genetic causes of insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes and related metabolic disorders," explains Dr. Gabi Kastenmüller, acting head of the Institute of Bioinformatics and Systems Biology.

Insulin resistance largely undetected in non-diabetic patients with Parkinson's disease

Almost two-thirds of non-diabetic patients with Parkinson's disease may be insulin resistant, despite having normal blood sugar, report scientists in the Journal of Parkinson's Disease.

New nuclear medicine test could improve care of patients with type 1 diabetes

Researchers have discovered a new nuclear medicine test that could improve care of patients with type 1 diabetes. The new positron emission tomography imaging method could measure beta-cell mass, which would greatly enhance the ability to monitor and guide diabetes therapies.

Researchers use DNA editing tool to reveal mechanisms behind autoimmune diseases

A group of researchers at the University of São Paulo in Brazil used a DNA editing tool called CRISPR/Cas9 to manipulate on of the genes associated to the autoaggressive T lymphocytes responsible for inducing autoimmune diseases such as autoimmune polyglandular syndrome type 1 and type 1 diabetes.

Scientists uncover molecular 'switch' that may control the benefits of exercise

Some people respond well to both aerobic exercise and strength training, while others don't. And some of us respond well to only one of those things, but not both. Scientists at Joslin Diabetes Center now have uncovered a surprising molecular "switch" that may help to explain why this happens.

Survey of women with PCOS points to distrust and lack of social support from healthcare providers

A U.S.-based survey of women with polycystic ovary syndrome, a common condition characterized by reproductive and metabolic problems, points to distrust and lack of social support from healthcare providers as major contributing factors in their negative medical care experiences, according to a new study published in the Endocrine Society's Journal of the Endocrine Society.
