Insulin therapy remains a cornerstone in the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), especially in patients experiencing progressive loss of pancreatic beta-cell function or those with inadequate glycemic control despite oral antidiabetic therapy. This review synthesized clinical outcomes from 44 peer-reviewed case reports published between 2019 and 2024, identified through systematic searches in PubMed and Scopus. The included cases involved 15 males and 29 females, with patient ages ranging from 11 to 91 years (mean 53 ± 20.

Background: Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) often experience hypoglycemia, an underappreciated consequence that has a major negative influence on treatment compliance and quality of life.

Objective: This study aimed to determine the prevalence and associated factors of hypoglycemia among patients with T2DM, with a focus on treatment types, comorbidities, and glycemic control. By providing population-specific data, the study intends to inform clinical decision-making and contribute to safer, more personalized diabetes management strategies.

Aortic valve stenosis is a progressive and increasingly prevalent disease in older adults, with no approved pharmacologic therapies to prevent or slow its progression. Although genetic risk factors have been identified, the contribution of epigenetic regulation remains poorly understood. Here, we demonstrated that histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) maintains aortic valve structure by suppressing mitochondrial biogenesis and preserving extracellular matrix integrity in valvular interstitial fibroblasts.

Aims: Population-based studies have consistently shown that individuals with diabetes secondary to chronic pancreatitis (pancreatic diabetes) have a high risk of hypoglycaemia. We aimed to investigate whether this risk has declined over recent years following the introduction of modern glucose-lowering medications.

Materials And Methods: In this Danish nationwide population-based cohort study, we included all adults with new-onset diabetes between 1998 and 2022 and classified them as having pancreatic diabetes, type 1, or type 2 diabetes.
