Article Abstract

Overt diabetes in pregnancy (ODP) was originally included in gestational diabetes mellitus, which was positioned between normal glucose tolerance and pre-existing diabetes mellitus (PDM) in perinatal risk. This retrospective study aimed to clarify the differences between women with ODP and those with PDM. Compared with women with PDM (n =  162), those with ODP (n = 76) had higher HbA1c levels especially in the first trimester (8.2 ± 1.5% vs 7.2 ± 1.5%; P < 0.001). Furthermore, women with ODP had higher pre-pregnancy body mass index (30.8 ± 7.0 vs 28.5 ± 5.6 kg/m; P = 0.010), and a higher incidence of congenital anomalies (19.7% vs 9.3%; P = 0.035). In conclusion, ODP was not milder than PDM; women with ODP did not only have poorer glycemic control but also had poorer pre-pregnant weight control. Their burdens could be relieved through appropriate management before pregnancy.

A potential association between tirzepatide and hypercalcemia in the setting of chronic hydrochlorothiazide use.

Summary: Hypercalcemia is a prevalent electrolyte disturbance commonly associated with primary hyperparathyroidism, cancer, or medication adverse effects. Thiazide diuretics reduce urinary calcium excretion, increasing calcium reabsorption and hypercalcemia. Tirzepatide, a dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist, is increasingly used for type 2 diabetes and obesity.

Background: Fasting during Ramadan poses distinct challenges for individuals with diabetes, especially pregnant women, due to increased metabolic demands and the heightened risk of hypoglycemia, hyperglycemia, and dehydration. Although medical guidelines often advise against fasting in this group, many women still choose to observe the fast. This study aims to explore diabetes self-efficacy and self-care behaviors during and after Ramadan among pregnant women.

Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP) and multifocal motor neuropathy (MMN) are among the most common immune-mediated neuropathies, characterized by a chronic, disabling disease course. While depression significantly impacts outcomes in various neurological disorders, its risk remains underexplored in patients with CIDP or MMN. This study aimed to investigate the association between CIDP or MMN and new-onset depression using a nationwide cohort in South Korea.

Background: The approach to appropriate risk stratification for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is variable, and the adoption of non-invasive liver disease assessments in clinical practice is suboptimal. In this study, we implemented an electronic decision support tool for primary care patients with MASLD to assess its influence on linkage to care.

Methods: We performed a prospective, before-and-after pilot study in which post-implementation providers were presented with an electronic decision aid automating non-invasive liver disease assessments with the Fibrosis-4 score and providing individualized, guideline-directed recommendations.
