Summary: There is an increasing trend in the prevalence of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in Taiwan, which has been linked to various adverse maternal outcomes. However, the effects of GDM on mid-term surrogate risk factors for these diseases are limited and nationwide cohort studies data are scarce.

Summary: This study aimed to explore the relationship between impaired thyroid hormone sensitivity at baseline and diabetes onset. The results showed no significant association between thyroid hormone sensitivity indices and diabetes onset, but elevated fasting glucose appeared to precede impaired sensitivity indices of thyroid hormones.

Summary: This study compared various obesity indicators and their associations with diabetes, finding that the waist area visceral index (LAP) had the strongest correlation with diabetes risk. When using a single obesity indicator for screening diabetes susceptibility, LAP was superior to other indicators, especially in women.

Summary: The study revealed that fast eating and low income were independent risk factors for the onset of diabetes among men. Addressing income disparities may be difficult, but controlling eating speed through education and coaching on dietary habits could be effective in preventing diabetes onset.

Summary: The study conducted a retrospective cohort study on Japanese patients with diabetes having GAD antibodies, and found that higher BMI, lower HbA(1c) levels, and lower GADAb levels can predict a non-insulin-dependent state for at least several years in these patients.

Summary: As the prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus continues to rise, cardiovascular disease has become a major cause of death in these patients. This study used machine learning algorithms to establish a model for assessing the probability of new-onset acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in T2DM patients, which outperformed traditional logistic regression models.

Summary: A preoperative prediction model for new-onset diabetes mellitus after partial pancreatectomy was developed in this retrospective cohort study. The analysis included factors such as preoperative age, body mass index, hemoglobin A1c level, blood glucose level, and indication for partial pancreatectomy. The model could help patients and surgeons make better decisions regarding the necessity of partial pancreatectomy.

Summary: This study examined the longitudinal association between possible sarcopenia and new-onset type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in older adults using data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study. The results showed that possible sarcopenia is associated with an increased risk of new-onset T2DM, especially in individuals aged 75 or younger and who are not overweight.

Summary: The study found a U-shaped association between the percentage of energy from carbohydrate intake and new-onset diabetes, with the lowest risk at 49-56% of carbohydrate intake. There was an L-shaped association between high-quality carbohydrate intake and new-onset diabetes, and a J-shaped association of low-quality carbohydrate intake with new-onset diabetes. The findings suggest that consuming high-quality carbohydrates and substituting plant-based products for low-quality carbohydrates may help prevent diabetes.

Summary: Antihypertensive adherence was found to be more strongly associated with the risk of CVD, with low-adherence patients having higher BP burden and fluctuation range than high-adherence patients. Patients with high adherence experienced a 28% greater reduction in BP burden compared to those with low adherence.

Summary: This study found an association between the use of pioglitazone and a lower risk of prostate cancer. Among patients using pioglitazone, a cumulative duration of therapy greater than 20.23 months or a cumulative dose greater than 15,330 mg was associated with a significantly reduced risk of prostate cancer, primarily in patients aged less than 65 years.

Summary: There is evidence suggesting that infection with SARS-CoV-2 can lead to long-term sequelae, including diabetes. This mini-review examines the evolving literature on new-onset diabetes after COVID-19 (NODAC). Current evidence suggests that COVID-19 increases the risk of developing diabetes, but the exact causality is uncertain due to study limitations and the evolving nature of the pandemic. COVID-19 may have direct and indirect effects on pancreatic beta-cell function and insulin sensitivity.

Summary: This study investigated the impact of income and industry type on the risk of developing diabetes among Japanese workers, and how this impact is affected by sex. The findings showed that in men, the risk of developing diabetes was higher in the low-income group and highest in the transportation and postal service industries. There was an interaction between income and industry, which was influenced by sex, with high-income men having a significantly higher risk of developing diabetes in specific industries, and low-income women having a significantly higher risk.
