Introduction: Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic disease characterised by elevated plasma glucose (PG) levels. HbA1c has been widely utilized for diabetes diagnosis. However, certain conditions restrict its use.

Importance: Consumer wearable technologies have wide applications, including some that have US Food and Drug Administration clearance for health-related notifications. While wearable technologies may have premarket testing, validation, and safety evaluation as part of a regulatory authorization process, information on their postmarket use remains limited. The Stanford Center for Digital Health organized 2 pan-stakeholder think tank meetings to develop an organizing concept for empirical research on the postmarket evaluation of consumer-facing wearables.

IntroductionDaratumumab is a therapeutic cornerstone of the management of multiple myeloma, exerting its anti-myeloma activity through targeting of the cell surface glycoprotein CD38 on plasma cells. While originally given intravenously, the subcutaneous formulation, daratumumab hyaluronidase injection (Dara SC), has been associated with non-inferior efficacy and lower infusion-related reaction rates (IRRs) in the treatment of multiple myeloma and light chain amyloidosis. A noted benefit of Dara SC is a short administration time; however, the optimal observation time post injection to ensure patient safety is unclear from the drug labeling.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFManaging diabetes in older adults requires balancing long-term glycaemic control with the prevention of hypoglycaemia, to which this population is particularly vulnerable owing to frailty, multimorbidity and cognitive decline. Guidelines recommend individualized glucose targets for older adults, particularly those with multimorbidity or increased hypoglycaemia risk. For individuals with frailty or cognitive impairment, relaxed HbA1c targets are often appropriate to reduce the risk of adverse events.

Background: Diabetic patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) are at an increased risk of cardiovascular events as compared to non-diabetic patients. This analysis investigated outcomes of diabetic patients presenting with multivessel disease (MVD) and STEMI in a contemporary trial and the relevance of an immediate versus staged multivessel PCI strategy in this high-risk population.
Methods: Patients enrolled in the MULTISTARS AMI trial were stratified according to the presence/absence of diabetes.
