Blueprint Being Developed to Address Physician Burnout
As part of blueprint, task force developing strategies that can be adopted by any institution/practice
Oxyntomodulin Augments Glucose Homeostasis
OXM effects seen in obese patients with and without T2DM; comparable effects to liraglutide in T2DM
Sweetened Drinks Linked to Increased Risk of Mortality
Risk of CVD-related, CHD-related, all-cause mortality up for highest versus lowest quartile of intake
ENDO: Drug Shows Promise As Effective Male Birth Control
Dimethandrolone undecanoate lowers testosterone; well tolerated, mild effects of weight gain, lower HDL
ENDO: Low Sperm Count Tied to Worse Cardiometabolic Health
Low sperm counts linked to hypogonadism, higher BMI, hypertension, dyslipidemia, metabolic syndrome
Altered Neural Responses in Memory Processing in T1DM
Significantly stronger neural responses in superior parietal cortices during memory encoding in T1DM
Closed-Loop Insulin Delivery Promising in T1DM Pregnancy
Comparable glucose control, less hypoglycemia vs. sensor-augmented pump tx in pregnant women
Guidelines Updated for Evaluating, Treating Hirsutism
Women with an abnormal hirsutism score should be tested for elevated androgen levels
Higher Exposure to Air Pollution Adds to CVD Risk for Blacks
Higher rate of incident CVD events, all-cause mortality in blacks partly due to PM2.5 exposure
Grilled Meat, Chicken Ups Risk of Type 2 Diabetes in U.S. Adults
Using open flames or high temps to cook red meat, chicken both linked to higher risk of T2DM
