RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Changes between semaglutide and placebo groups over 26 weeks in total daily insulin dose (TDD), basal and bolus insulin doses, carbohydrate intake, and user-initiated bolus counts were analyzed using linear mixed models. Mediation analysis was used to attribute direct effects of semaglutide versus weight loss on insulin dose reduction. RESULTS From baseline to week 26, there was a significant 22.6% reduction in TDD (95% CI −28.3 to −17.0), which was driven by greater reductions in bolus insulin (−30.5%; 95% CI −39.5 to −21.5) than basal insulin (−15.6%; 95% CI −21.5 to −9.7). The basal/TDD ratio increased from 0.56 to 0.62 (P < 0.001) and insulin dose (in units/kg/day) decreased from 0.72 to 0.60 (P < 0.001) in the semaglutide group. At week 4, an 83% (−11.1 U/day) reduction in TDD was due to a direct drug effect, and 17% (−2.3 U/day) was attributed to weight loss, whereas at week 26, the difference was split evenly between direct effect (−11.4 U/day; 52%) and weight loss (−10.5 U/day; 48%). Daily carbohydrate intake decreased from 137 g (95% CI 107–167) at baseline to 107 g (95% CI 76–137) at 26 weeks. CONCLUSIONS Semaglutide produced rapid, sustained, and primarily bolus-driven insulin dose reductions, with early effects being largely independent of weight loss in adults with T1D and obesity.","PeriodicalId":11140,"journal":{"name":"Diabetes Care","volume":"3 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":16.2,"publicationDate":"2025-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145807423","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Thirty-seven individuals (17 OB(+T2D) and 20 OB(−T2D) wore a CGM device and had a 2-h oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). Of these, 27 also underwent a two-step hyperglycemic-euglycemic clamp. CGM metrics calculated with EasyGV software were correlated with indices of insulin secretion and insulin resistance from OGTT and clamp. RESULTS CGM metrics, such as mean and glycemic variability indices, were higher in OB(+T2D) than in OB(−T2D) (P < 0.001). CGM mean inversely correlated with insulin resistance indices (insulin sensitivity index from OGTT and glucose infusion rate [GIR] from the clamp) when analyzing all participants together (GIR: r = −0.82, P < 0.001) or separately (P < 0.01). CGM mean negatively correlated with insulin secretion indices only when the two groups were analyzed together (P < 0.05). When analyzing each group separately, CGM mean positively correlated with insulin levels during the OGTT and hyperglycemic step of the clamp in the OB(−T2D), but not the OB(+T2) group. CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that CGM metrics, in particular, the simplest metric, CGM mean, was associated with the degree of insulin resistance. Further research is needed to determine whether CGM mean could be a tool to identify normal glucose-tolerant individuals with obesity potentially at risk for progressing to prediabetes and diabetes, and whether its convergence with increased glycemic variability can further contribute to risk prediction of glycemic disorders.","PeriodicalId":11140,"journal":{"name":"Diabetes Care","volume":"29 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":16.2,"publicationDate":"2025-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145785836","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS The Fr1da study tested 211,464 children aged 1.75–10 years for islet autoantibodies. Children with early-stage type 1 diabetes were classified as stage 1 or stage 2 by oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) using current American Diabetes Association criteria and were followed 3–6 months. We applied our previously developed progression likelihood score (PLS), a composite of HbA1c, 90-min OGTT glucose, and islet antigen 2 antibodies (IA-2A) titer, and developed a non–OGTT-based score using multivariable Cox proportional hazards models to stratify progression rates to stage 3. RESULTS Of 485 children who participated in staging, 360 (74.2%) were diagnosed with stage 1. Of these, stage 3 developed in 105 (median follow-up 3.3 years). PLS stratified the 2-year risk for stage 3 from 43.7% (95% CI 24.3–58.1) in children with high PLS to 4.7% (1.7–7.7) and 0% in those with intermediate or low PLS. Adding the variable obesity improved the existing model. In children with stage 2 with a single dysglycemic abnormality, PLS could stratify 2-year risk for stage 3 from 42.4% (95% CI 22.8–57.0) to 5.6% (0.0–15.6). A non–OGTT-based score based on IA-2A titer categories, HbA1c, obesity, and autoantibody positivity for IA-2 juxtamembrane epitopes could identify individuals with low (1.7%) and moderate (24.6%) 2-year risk.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We included parous women with a baseline survey on history of GDM and biological aging biomarkers from the UK Biobank. Information regarding prior GDM was collected via a touchscreen questionnaire and linkage to hospital admission records. Biological aging was evaluated using validated phenotypic age (PhenoAge) based on chronological age and nine biomarkers measured at baseline (2006–2010). Biological aging acceleration was determined as the residual by regressing PhenoAge estimates on chronological age. All-cause mortality and incident cardiometabolic disease during follow-up were also assessed. RESULTS Among the 178,363 women (mean age, 57.0 [SD 7.9] years), 1,141 had a history of GDM. In a multivariable-adjusted model, a history of GDM was associated with an increase in PhenoAge acceleration by 2.34 (95% CI 2.02, 2.66) years. The association persisted regardless of the occurrence of type 2 diabetes and related comorbidities after GDM. Consistent results were observed across subgroups, while the GDM-related PhenoAge acceleration was more prominent among women with less physical activity and obesity (both Pinteraction < 0.01). The mediation analysis demonstrated that PhenoAge acceleration explained 57.0% (95% CI 21.0, 86.9), 12.4% (7.3, 20.4), and 21.9% (14.0, 32.5) of the positive associations between GDM and all-cause mortality, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease, respectively.

SDM is an evidence-based approach for promoting person-centered care and is widely recommended across medical specialties. However, a variety of issues challenge the use of SDM in daily practice. In this narrative review we discuss factors that may impede the use of SDM in adults with obesity and type 2 diabetes, as well as past efforts to address these barriers. Patient-level factors such as internalized weight bias and lack of knowledge about obesity and its treatment, provider-level factors such as limited training in obesity management and lack of confidence in sensitively discussing weight, and system-level factors like poor treatment access and limited care coordination stymie effective SDM around obesity management. A perceived power imbalance between patients and providers and medical mistrust are additional barriers for some. In the past, researchers have attempted to overcome these barriers to advancing SDM through approaches including patient decision aids, provider training, and clinical decision support systems, with moderate success. This article concludes with recommended strategies for clinical adoption of SDM for patients with obesity and type 2 diabetes, a call for system-level changes to create an environment more conducive to effective SDM, and directions for future research.","PeriodicalId":11140,"journal":{"name":"Diabetes Care","volume":"29 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":16.2,"publicationDate":"2025-12-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145664507","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We aimed to evaluate the risk of stent failure in patients with diabetes compared with those without diabetes after implantation of second-generation DES. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS All patients in Sweden who received second-generation DES between 2010 and 2020 were included and categorized into three groups: type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, and without diabetes (reference group). The primary end point was stent failure, defined as in-stent restenosis or stent thrombosis. Adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% CIs were estimated by Cox regression models. Sensitivity analyses were performed to address missing data in covariates and account for death as a competing risk. RESULTS The study included 160,523 patients: 2,406 with type 1 diabetes, 43,377 with type 2 diabetes, and 114,740 without diabetes. Seventy-one percent were male. Over a mean follow-up of 4.5 years, 5,510 stent failure events occurred. The fully adjusted HR for stent failure was 2.28 (95% CI 1.97–2.65) for patients with type 1 and 1.35 (95% CI 1.27–1.44) for patients with type 2 diabetes, compared with individuals without diabetes. Sensitivity analyses confirmed the robustness of the findings, with both in-stent restenosis and stent thrombosis contributing to the increased risk. CONCLUSIONS We observed a significantly higher risk of second-generation DES stent failure in individuals with type 1 diabetes followed by those with type 2 diabetes, compared with individuals without diabetes. This elevated risk was attributed to both in-stent restenosis and stent thrombosis.","PeriodicalId":11140,"journal":{"name":"Diabetes Care","volume":"12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":16.2,"publicationDate":"2025-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145609840","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
