Article Abstract

Purpose: This study was to translate the Diabetes Eating Problem Survey-Revised (DEPS-R), originally developed for adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus, into Korean, and to determine its factor structure while testing its validity and reliability among Korean adolescents with type 1 diabetes.

Methods: The participants were recruited from the Diabetes Center of a university hospital or type 1 diabetes camp. A total of 205 Korean adolescents aged 13-18 years diagnosed with type 1 diabetes completed a self-reported questionnaire. After the DEPS-R was translated into Korean (KDEPS-R), confirmatory factor analyses were performed and the criterion and convergent validity were tested.

Results: This four-factor model was validated using a confirmatory factor analysis. The sensitivity and specificity of the KDEPS-R based on the Korean version of the Eating Attitudes Test-26 (KEAT-26) as the criterion for eating disorders were .52 and .81, respectively. The KDEPS-R scores significantly correlated with the glycated hemoglobin levels and the Korean versions of the Beck Depression Inventory-II and KEAT-26 scores, indicating convergent validity. The Cronbach α for the total score was .85.

Conclusion: The KDEPS-R is a reliable and culturally validated tool for evaluating diabetic eating disorders in Korean adolescents with type 1 diabetes. The KDEPS-R can help investigate related prevalence rates and test the effectiveness of intervention programs for Korean adolescents with type 1 diabetes.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the diabetic eye disease screening continuum at two academic centers and identify its barriers.

Research Design And Methods: We analyzed health records from the University of California, San Francisco and University of California, Irvine to identify primary care patients needing diabetic eye screening. We tracked referrals, screenings, diagnoses, and treatments to evaluate predictors and the impact of an automated referral system.

Objective: This study investigates the mechanisms behind exercise capacity in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), focusing on central and peripheral components, as described by the Fick equation.

Methods: A cross-sectional study of 141 adults with T2DM was conducted, using cardiopulmonary exercise testing, near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and exercise echocardiography. Participants with sufficient-quality NIRS data were stratified into tertiles based on percentage predicted VO₂peak.

There is a lack of longitudinal data on type 2 diabetes (T2D) in low- and middle-income countries. We leveraged the electronic health records (EHR) system of a publicly funded academic institution to establish a retrospective cohort with longitudinal data to facilitate benchmarking, surveillance, and resource planning of a multi-ethnic T2D population in Malaysia. This cohort included 15,702 adults aged ≥ 18 years with T2D who received outpatient care (January 2002-December 2020) from Universiti Malaya Medical Centre (UMMC), Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

Importance: As obesity rates rise in the US, managing associated metabolic comorbidities presents a growing burden to the health care system. While bariatric surgery has shown promise in mitigating established metabolic conditions, no large studies have quantified the risk of developing major obesity-related comorbidities after bariatric surgery.

Objective: To identify common metabolic phenotypes for patients eligible for bariatric surgery and to estimate crude and adjusted incidence rates of additional metabolic comorbidities associated with bariatric surgery compared with weight management program (WMP) alone.
