Diabetes Discourse
As the number of Americans living with diabetes continues to rise, staying up to date on the latest diabetes research is more essential than ever to help patients achieve glucose control. With Diabetes Discourse, you’ll hear from diabetes and endocrinology experts on emerging research, diagnostic and treatment strategies, and various elements that impact a patient’s disease course, including risk factors, vitamin and mineral supplementation, physical activity, and kidney disease. Because when it comes to diabetes, glucose control is just the beginning.

Approximately over the last decade, lifespans in the general population have increased, along with a rise in the prevalence of type 1 diabetes in older adult patients. Since each patient has a unique disease, the clinician should personalize and devise the best approach to diabetes management and glycemic targets, as well as manage comorbidities and complications.

Since young kids have a different activity level and diet than older kids or adult patients, controlling type 1 diabetes in younger patients can be more challenging, and there tends to be more variability in their blood sugars. However, a recent study identified that hybrid closed-loop technology could help give children with type 1 diabetes the best outcomes and quality of life. To lear...
