Estimates of Diabetes and Its Burden in the United States (CDC) On average, participants spent the majority (13 h) of the day in hyperglycaemia (>10.0 mmol/l) and a median of ~1 h/day in hypoglycaemia (<3.9 mmol/l). Participants with minority race/ethnicity and higher parent education levels spent more time in target range, 3.9–10.0 mmol/l, and less time in hyperglycaemia (Diabetic Medicine) Around two million people in England are at risk of developing Type 2 diabetes, the highest on record, according to new NHS figures These findings have important implications for cost-effectiveness and for decision-making around insulin dose calculations and driving. Our findings emphasize the need for continued SMBG testing among people at high risk of hypoglycemia who use isCGM. Cost-effectiveness analyses for isCGM may require revision (Diabetes Technology and Therapeutics) There is compelling evidence that sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors exert cardioprotective and renoprotective effects that are far greater than expected based on their effects on glycemia or glycosuria (Diabetes Care)
