I'm Stacey Simms and every other Friday I bring you a short episode with the top diabetes stories and headlines happening now. XX The understanding of type 1 has changed a lot in the last 10-15 years, specifically with the definition of stages of the disease. Now some researchers suggest the current 2015 model is ready for another update. University of Florida Health diabetes researchers and collaborators last week issued a call to action in The Lancet Diabetes & Endocrinology, urging the development of a more precise method of calculating type 1 diabetes risk. Under the current staging system, this is Stage 1 of the disease, when a patient does not yet have elevated blood sugar but has two or more of these autoantibodies in the blood. Stage 2 is diagnosed when blood sugar begins to rise, indicating a dysfunctional pancreas in a patient who does not yet have clinical type 1 diabetes. That comes in Stage 3 with high blood sugar and, eventually, the classic symptoms of the disease, including frequent urination, weight loss and fatigue. Jacobsen, however, said the staging system requires more precision. This is especially important as the current staging model determines if a patient is eligible to receive a drug therapy called teplizumab, the only Food and Drug Administration-approved medication that can delay the onset of type 1 diabetes by an average of two years. The staging system, however, does not include a patient's age and these researchers say additional markers that would be important to consider include a greater array of abnormal metabolic measures beyond blood sugar and the presence of more autoantibodies. https://www.gainesville.com/story/news/healthcare/2024/12/04/uf-health-scientists-propose-update-to-type-1-diabetes-staging-system/76734459007/ XX A product called InsuJet gets approval in Canada. Made by NuGen Medical Devices, InsuJet™ is a needle-free injection system. It's already approved for sale in 42 countries – not yet the US. Their website says InsuJet's jet-injected fluid penetrates the skin through a small orifice of a special nozzle, creating a thin, high pressure stream. This way, insulin doesn't remain around the place of injection, like it does with a needle. Instead, with InsuJet, the insulin is deposited into the subcutaneous tissue where it's easily absorbed and acts faster– saving you money, time, and discomfort. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/nugen-announces-canada-wide-launch-221500674.html XX Individuals diagnosed with type 2 diabetes before the age of 50 may be at a higher risk of developing dementia later in life. A study led by researchers at NYU Rory Meyers College of Nursing, says the risk is notably greater among adults with obesity. Type 2 diabetes is a known risk factor for dementia. Although the underlying mechanisms are not fully understood, scientists think that some of the hallmarks of diabetes—such as high blood sugar, insulin resistance, and inflammation—may encourage the development of dementia in the brain. The researchers note that this greater understanding of the connection between diabetes onset, obesity, and dementia may help inform targeted interventions to prevent dementia. https://scitechdaily.com/diagnosed-young-with-diabetes-your-dementia-risk-may-be-higher/ XX Embecta is out of the insulin patch pump business – just months after getting the ok from the FDA. Embecta received FDA clearance for its insulin patch pump in September. The device is indicated for people with Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes and includes a 300-unit insulin reservoir to support people with higher daily insulin needs. However, the version Embecta received clearance for was an open-loop patch pump, where users manually control insulin delivery, while the firm's goal was to develop a closed-loop version, which automatically delivers insulin when needed. The CEO also expects competition in closed-loop devices for people with Type 2 diabetes to intensify, with Insulet receiving FDA clearance for its Omnipod 5 patch pump for Type 2 diabetes in August. https://www.medtechdive.com/news/embecta-discontinue-patch-pump/734059/ XX Sanofi invests in a company developing a new drug to prevent hypoglycemia. We reported on Zucara Therapeutics back in 2022 and they've been moving ahead with ZT-01. ZT-01 is a medication being developed to help prevent dangerous low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) by fixing how the body normally fights it. In people without diabetes, a hormone called glucagon is released to raise blood sugar when it gets too low. But in people with insulin-dependent diabetes, like type 1 diabetes or some forms of type 2 diabetes, this process doesn't work well because another hormone, somatostatin (SST), blocks glucagon from being released. ZT-01 works by blocking the effects of somatostatin, allowing the body to release more glucagon when it's needed. This could help people with diabetes avoid severe low blood sugar episodes. https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/zucara-therapeutics-announces-strategic-investment-from-sanofi-as-part-of-us20-million-series-b-financing-302301820.html XX Omnipod 5 is now compatible with the FreeStyle Libre 2 plus. The company says the recent development “ makes Omnipod 5 the most connected tubeless AID system in the U.S.” It's already compatible with Dexcom's G6 and G7 CGMs. https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20241120268759/en/Insulet-Announces-Omnipod%C2%AE-5-System-is-Now-Compatible-with-Abbott%E2%80%99s-FreeStyle-Libre-2-Plus-Sensor-in-the-U.S. XX A new study involving 11 clinical centers across the United States aims to uncover how type 1 diabetes (T1D) impacts brain health and cognitive function in children. Led by the Keck School of Medicine of the University of Southern California, this is a five-year study to explore critical questions about how environmental, lifestyle, social and clinical factors affect brain development during childhood — a period crucial for cognitive growth. https://www.managedhealthcareexecutive.com/view/new-study-to-explore-impact-of-type-1-diabetes-on-children-s-brain-development XX Dexcom looking to partner with smart ring company Oura. Originally launched to track sleep patterns, the latest Oura technology collects more than 20 biometrics ranging from heart rate and activity metrics to sleep and body temperature monitoring. The companies say the new partnership is intended to provide users with seamless integration between the two ecosystems so shared users can track their glucose levels and understand the impact of behaviors and biology on their metabolic health. https://www.forbes.com/sites/saibala/2024/11/29/smart-ring-maker-oura-hits-5-billion-in-valuation--strikes-major-partnership-with-dexcom/ XX WEDNESDAY, Dec. 4, 2024 (HealthDay News) -- Taking even high doses of supplementary vitamin D won't lower an older person's odds for type 2 diabetes, new research confirms. They published their findings Dec. 2 in the journal Diabetologia. The new research followed on data from other studies that had suggested that people with especially low levels of vitamin D might face a higher risk for diabetes. That was true for people who were already prediabetic, especially. To find out, researchers led by Jirki Vyrtanen, from the University of Eastern Finland, randomly assigned nearly 2,300 people aged 60 or older to receive either placebo pills or 40 or 80 micrograms of vitamin D3 supplements per day, for five years. At the end of the five years, "105 participants developed type 2 diabetes: 38 in the placebo group, 31 in the group receiving 40 micrograms of vitamin D3 per day, and 36 in the group receiving 80 micrograms of vitamin D3 per day," according to a university news release. In other words, there were no significant differences in the rate at which people developed type 2 diabetes, regardless of how much supplemental vitamin D they took. Vytanen's team also saw no benefit from high-dose supplements on a person's blood sugar or insulin levels, or measures of overweight/obesity. The bottom line, according to the researchers: For any healthy, non-prediabetic person with healthy vitamin D levels, upping intake of the vitamin won't alter your odds for diabetes or its common risk factors. https://www.usnews.com/news/health-news/articles/2024-12-04/high-dose-vitamin-d-supplements-wont-prevent-diabetes-in-healthy-seniors XX Big congrats to author Clare Edge – recent guest on the podcast.

This week we delve into the world of adult congenital heart disease to review the topic of liver disease in the Fontan patient and specifically, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). What is the prevalence of this disease in the Fontan single ventricle adult patient? How effective are scores like the MELD-XI or Fibrosis-4 Index at identification of HCC in the Fontan patient? How should the Fontan adult patient be surveilled for this form of cancer? What evidence is there that earlier identification of HCC is associated with better outcomes? What may prove to be the most important factor in protection of the liver in the Fontan patient? Dr. Yuli Kim, Director of the ACHD program at The University of Pennsylvania shares her deep insights this week into this important topic. DOI: 10.1093/eurheartj/ehad788

The biggest migration happens every night in the ocean. Plankton come up from the twilight zone to eat, safe from daytime predators. And then they go back to the deep ocean before dawn. Debbie Steinberg says that these plankton are helping us to manage our carbon output by taking it back to the deep ocean. And: The rustic boardwalk that winds through the marsh carrying visitors down to the water's jagged edge at Ragged Island is getting shorter. Due to erosion, two feet of the boardwalk has been cut back each year for the past twenty years. Rob Atkinson and Gary Whiting say it won't be a generation before homes are threatened and the biodiversity and carbon storage would be lost. They're working with students to try to divert that unfortunate outcome. Later in the show: As sea levels rise, groundwater in coastal areas is getting saltier. This has been a real issue for farmers because many things don't grow well in salty water. But some do -- and that could mean a new specialty crop. Josh Dusci is testing the hypothesis that tomatoes grow sweeter in saltier water. Plus: For years, the United Kingdom and Germany had used Icelandic waters for fishing. But when Iceland became an independent nation, its leaders realized they'd need the economic benefits of their own waterways to sustain themselves. So they claimed exclusive rights of fishing in their waters. Ingo Heidbrink walks us through the three big conflicts of the so-called Cod Wars.
Your bones are the pillars of what it means to be “strong for life”, and there are few things are as important for health span and longevity as the strength of our bodies to be functional in our latter years. It is assumed that it's the likes of cancer and heart attacks at the centre of premature death, but falling down and breaking our bones is right up there as a leading cause of death in those over 60, with 20% of hip fractures leading to death within one year of injury. That's why it's time to start lifting heavy, building your bone bank and getting strong for life.Belinda Beck is a Professor in the School of Health Sciences & Social Work and member of the Menzies Health Institute Queensland at Griffith University where she has taught musculoskeletal anatomy and conducted bone research for over 20 years.

In this episode of the Patient from Hell podcast, we speak with Dr. Milana Dolezal, an oncologist from Stanford University, and learn about cutting-edge advancements in cancer treatments, particularly antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) and precision medicine. Dr. Dolezal shares her journey from childhood inspiration to a career in oncology, the evolution of cancer therapies, and how recent innovations are transforming metastatic cancer care. The conversation also delves into the intricacies of cancer biology, the impact of emerging treatments on quality of life, and the hope for a future where therapies are tailored not only to the disease but also to managing side effects effectively. Key Highlights: 1. Oncology Advancements: Dr. Dolezal explains the development of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) that deliver chemotherapy directly to cancer cells, reducing side effects compared to traditional treatments. 2.Cancer's Complexity: Using vivid analogies, Dr. Dolezal illustrates how cancer evolves to resist treatments, comparing it to navigating New York's subway system. 3. Managing Side Effects: Dr. Dolezal emphasizes a "go low and go slow" approach in administering treatments to minimize side effects, tailoring doses to individual patients' needs to balance efficacy with maintaining quality of life. About our guest: Dr. Dolezal is a board-certified hematologist-oncologist with Stanford Medicine Cancer Center in Emeryville and a clinical associate professor in the Stanford School of Medicine, Division of Oncology.

Anti-vaccine sentiment is, more or less, as old as vaccines. When Cotton Mather promoted inoculations against smallpox in the 1720s, someone threw a firebomb through his window with a message attached: “Mather, you dog, Damn you, I'll inoculate you with this.” Today's vaccines are as safe and effective as ever. So why, suddenly, is the anti-vax movement at the height of its power and influence? Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the nominee to be the next secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services, is “the king of the anti-vaxxers,” says Atlantic senior editor Daniel Engber. But RFK Jr. isn't alone. An array of nominees across the fringe science belief spectrum appear ready to take the reins in Trump's new administration. In this episode, we discuss this disorienting moment, when anti-vaccine conspiracy theorists may soon be in charge of the agencies that fund, recommend, and research vaccines, with Engber and Arthur Allen, author of Vaccines: The Controversial Story of Medicine's Greatest Lifesaver. What levers could the anti-vaxxers in charge pull to disrupt vaccine distribution? How could they affect vaccine recommendations and research? And what happens if there is an outbreak? Ultimately, how fragile is the nation's vaccine infrastructure? --- Share understanding this holiday season. For less than $2 a week, give a year-long Atlantic subscription to someone special.

Wondering if you have a skin rash from mold? This episode is for you!If you or your child has a skin rash and you can't figure out the cause, you may start to look at mold illness or mold toxicity as a possible trigger.And if you suspect that you live or spend time in “fungally” environments with a high likelihood of mold, perhaps doing a mold test has crossed your mind.I'm often asked if mold testing is necessary or if a chronic skin rash (and other health issues) could be caused by mold. So in this episode, we'll discuss mold illness vs mold allergy, sneaky places mold likes to hide, signs of mold exposure, and much more.Joining me to talk about whether you've got a skin rash from mold is Jennifer Brand, MS, MPH, CNS. She's a clinical nutritionist who helps babies and children with chronic rashes navigate the journey to healthy skin so they can enjoy a childhood free from disruptive skin symptoms. As one of the most trusted pediatric skin-focused nutritionists, Jen is passionate about helping families get to the root causes of the problem through her unique method called Conquer Your Child's Rashes™.So let's dive in!In This Episode:Is your skin rash from mold (and how could you know for sure)?What is mold (and what's its relationship with candida)?How common are mold problems?Current mold exposure vs previous mold exposure (which matters more?)Crazy client stories with sneaky mold symptomsMold toxicity vs mold allergy (and what does mold testing show?)Surprising places mold hidesQuotes“I think one of the things that gets chased nowadays, and it's popular to go down this rabbit hole, is mold. Now, yes, it absolutely can be a problem and I have seen it be a problem. However, what I tell parents is that it really isn't the place to start.”“When it comes to mold testing, we are talking more about a mold toxicity, where the mold is in the person's body. That's what that's detecting, versus a mold allergy, which is like another environmental allergy. So you could be allergic to mold that's in the grass outside of your home.”LinksFind Jennifer Brand online | Instagram | Facebook | TikTokGOT RASHY KIDS?
