IBD increases type 1 diabetes risk, revealing a bidirectional link between the two conditions

Researchers discovered that IBD significantly increases the risk of developing T1D, and this association works both ways, independent of genetics and familial factors. The strongest link was seen in ulcerative colitis patients.

Large-scale study to explore impact of type 1 diabetes on brain development in children

About half of adults with type 1 diabetes face significant cognitive impairment, including problems with working memory and executive function that affect day-to-day thinking. But less is known about how the condition affects children during a window of time known to be critical for healthy brain development.

Study reveals how SARS-CoV-2 triggers diabetes by destroying pancreatic cells

Researchers from Weill Cornell Medicine have used a cutting-edge model system to uncover the mechanism by which SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, induces new cases of diabetes, and worsens complications in people who already have it.

Semaglutide and tirzepatide significantly improve weight loss and glycemic control in type 1 diabetes

Semaglutide and tirzepatide treatment lead to significant weight loss and improve blood sugar control in individuals with type 1 diabetes (T1D) who are living with overweight or obesity, new research being presented at the annual meeting of the European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) in Madrid, Spain (9-13 September) has found.

Advanced insulin pump technology improves diabetes management for marathon runners

A series of case reports to be presented at this year's Annual Meeting of The European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD), Madrid (9-13 Sept), describe how a technology giving insulin doses informed by an insulin pump algorithm helped three adults with type 1 diabetes better manage their blood sugars enabling them to lead more active lives, and even run marathons.

Fear of hypoglycemia limits physical activity in adults with type 1 diabetes

Despite high use of continuous glucose monitoring and insulin pump therapy, fear of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) remains a significant barrier to physical activity and exercise for adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D), according to new research to be presented at this year's Annual Meeting of The European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD), Madrid (9-13 Sept).

Reduced heart rate variability linked to higher mortality in people with diabetes

Disruption to normal variations in daily heart rate (HR) is associated with a much higher risk of dying in people with type 1 and type 2 diabetes over 21 years, according to new research to be presented at this year's Annual Meeting of The European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD), Madrid (9-13 Sept).
