Researchers at the Harold Hamm Oklahoma Diabetes Center have found a way to stop the damage caused by Type 1 diabetes with the combination of insulin and a common vitamin found in most medicine cabinets. http://www.physorg.com/news163768625.html Medicine & Health Tue, 09 Jun 2009 12:17:27 EST news163768625 (PhysOrg.com) -- A meta-analysis of five trials has shown that more intensive glucose control in diabetes leads to fewer heart attacks and heart disease events - but has no significant effect on stroke or mortality from all causes. http://www.physorg.com/news162568058.html Medicine & Health Tue, 26 May 2009 14:48:12 EST news162568058 A benchmarking study published in the Journal of Hospital Medicine evaluated contemporary hospital glycemic management in United States academic medical centers, determining glucose control practices are suboptimal and do not meet current American Diabetes Association (ADA) hospital diabetes care standards. http://www.physorg.com/news151072684.html Medicine & Health Tue, 13 Jan 2009 12:38:04 EST news151072684 A new study led by researchers at the Joslin Diabetes Center and Harvard Medical School has found that a common genetic variant associated with an increased risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) in the general population is also linked to an even higher risk for people with diabetes, particularly those with poor glucose control. http://www.physorg.com/news146848594.html Medicine & Health Tue, 25 Nov 2008 15:16:34 EST news146848594 (PhysOrg.com) -- A large-scale, 30-year study by Oxford University has shown improved blood glucose control in type 2 diabetes leads to greater benefits in the longer term. The findings, to be published in the New England Journal of Medicine, show the need to treat blood glucose levels more intensively from the time type 2 diabetes is diagnosed. http://www.physorg.com/news140353759.html Medicine & Health Thu, 11 Sep 2008 12:09:19 EST news140353759 An analysis of randomized trials indicates that for critically ill adults, tight glucose control is not associated with a significantly reduced risk of death in the hospital, but is associated with an increased risk of hypoglycemia, calling into question the recommendation by many professional societies for tight glucose control for these patients, according to an article in the August 27 issue of JAMA. http://www.physorg.com/news138988176.html Medicine & Health Tue, 26 Aug 2008 16:49:36 EST news138988176
