Imagine what these Studies can Do for Diabetes Management
Could you see a day when noninvasive imaging tests are used to prevent T2D? An article published in Diabetes Technology & Therapeutics shows us the light on what these tests can do for our preemptive care to ward-off T2D. Computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance (MR), and positron emission tomography (PET) are some of these imaging [...]

Potential T1D Vaccine…Someday
The largest supermarket chain in the UK, Tesco, decided to partner up with Diabetes UK, to fund what will be the biggest single research program looking into a possible vaccine for T1D. The joint effort is funded with $15 million to research the hurculean feat of wiping T1D off the face of the Earth. Michael Kissman, [...]

Air Pollution Increases Insulin Resistance in Children
A study published in Diabetologica shows that long-term exposure to traffic-related air pollution is related to insulin resistance in children. For the first time, this study indicates the possible association between air pollution and insulin resistance in children. One of the researchers commented, “although toxicity differs between air pollutants, they are all considered potent oxidisers that act [...]

T1D and Academic Performance
Often times I wonder if T1D has an effect on cognitive performance. As it happens, researchers wondered the same thing, and published a study in the Journal of International Medical Research to examine the effect of T1D on academic performance. The study recruited students of the same age, ethnicity, and socio-economic status and matched them [...]

Smarter Gel to Regulate Glucose for 10 Days
Nanotechnology could remove the finger prick from the daily routine of people with diabetes with an injectable gel that monitors blood-sugar levels and automatically secretes insulin. An MIT news release brought a smile to my face. I won’t lie. The excitement of SmartCells glucose-sensitive insulin was too good to be true. When Merck & Co [...]

Good Vibrations for Leg Circulation
Although it sounds a little hocus pocus, whole body vibration (WBV) has been around since the late 1800s. It uses low amplitude, low frequency vibrations to stimulate the muscles to improve strength, power, and flexibility. A new study published in European Journal of Applied Physiology says WBV may enhance leg circulation in T2D. The [...]

Head-to-Head Comparison of CGMs
The continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems of today are better than the yesteryear models. This study published in Diabetes Technology & Therapeutics compares the accuracy and reliability of the Dexcom G4, Freestyle Navigator, and the Medtronic Paradigm with Enlite. The comparison evaluated 20 people with T1D and the experience with each of the CGMs in a hospital [...]

Herbal Therapies for T2D
Type 2 diabetes affects an astronomical number of people worldwide. Current treatments for the disease are expensive, at times ineffective, and pose undesirable side effects. A new study published in Evidence Based Complimentary and Alternative Medicine investigates the possible use of herbal treatments for T2D. Pharmaceutical companies come at the T2D customer with the latest [...]

Shedding Light on Accurate Non-Invasive Glucose Testing
The way light scatters when transmitted through a person with diabetes may be able to accurately determine glucose value. A study published in Iranian Journal of Medical Sciences shows that someday we may no longer have to endure bloodshed every time we check our blood sugar. In this study, 900 people were evaluated using a [...]
