Article Abstract
This study examined the relationship between type 2 diabetes and late syphilis. A retrospective analysis was conducted, including 96 syphilis patients with type 2 diabetes and 122 matched non-diabetic syphilis controls. The development of late-stage syphilis and responses to initial treatment were monitored over a 2-year period. Stratified logistic regression was used to assess whether diabetes increased the risk of late syphilis. Differences in initial treatment responses between the 2 groups were evaluated using χ2 tests and Kaplan-Meier curves. The cohort study confirmed that the serological cure rate within 12 months was significantly lower in diabetic syphilis patients. Type 2 diabetes significantly impacts the efficacy of syphilis treatment and is a risk factor for late syphilis.

Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) are a fairly new class of agents for diabetes that have demonstrated significant benefits in glycemic control and cardiovascular outcomes with outpatient use. The aim of this review is to provide an overview of the effect of SGLT2i use on glycemic control and clinical outcomes in the hospital setting.An electronic search of PubMed was conducted to analyze publications that assessed the inpatient use of SGLT2i and included patients with diabetes.

Background: While osteoporosis in primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is widely studied, PHPT patients with osteopenia remain less characterized. This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence, biochemical features, and estimated fracture risk of osteopenic PHPT patients in a real-life cohort.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed a consecutive series of PHPT patients with available densitometric data at three sites.

Background And Aims: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is defined as glucose intolerance first identified during pregnancy that does not meet the criteria for overt diabetes. Its pathophysiology shares key features with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D), including insulin resistance and inflammation. Emerging evidence suggests that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are implicated in T2D.

Purpose: Infective endocarditis (IE) has been associated with severe outcomes when complicated by diabetes mellitus (DM). We aimed to report characteristics, microbial etiology, and mortality for patients with IE stratified by DM from a nationwide cohort.
Methods: We used Danish registries, and patients with first-time IE (2010-2020) were stratified by DM.
Augmented glucagon-induced gluconeogenesis in primary hepatocytes from Otsuka Long-Evans Tokushima Fatty rats.

Glucagon dysregulation is a hallmark of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), yet its early hepatic effects remain unclear. Here, we demonstrate that glucagon-induced gluconeogenesis is markedly enhanced in primary hepatocytes from prediabetic Otsuka Long-Evans Tokushima Fatty (OLETF) rats, a well-established model of human T2DM. Compared to control LETO rats, OLETF hepatocytes showed significantly higher glucagon-stimulated expression of gluconeogenic genes (Pepck, G6pase, Fbp1) at both mRNA and protein levels, along with elevated glucose production.
