Type 2 diabetes (T2D) and knee osteoarthritis (OA) frequently co-occur, and concomitant knee OA increases risk for diabetes complications. Despite this, OA is frequently undertreated. Diabetes health professionals’ (HPs’) perceptions of the impact of knee OA in people with T2D may impact how it is addressed in clinical practice. We aimed to understand how diabetes HPs perceive the impact of knee OA on diabetes management and outcomes.

Globally, the prevalence of Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) among adolescents is increasing. While T2D is known to bring physical health challenges, less is known about adolescents’ psychosocial experiences of T2D. We aimed to identify and synthesize existing qualitative research about adolescents’ psychosocial experiences of T2D to inform healthcare recommendations.

Rates of type 1(T1D) and type 2(T2D) diabetes in youth may be increasing globally; however, findings vary across populations. We aimed to determine changes in incidence and prevalence of T1D and T2D over a 25-year period (1994-2018) in youth under age 20 in Nova Scotia(NS).

Delayed diagnosis of diabetes in children can lead to diabetic ketoacidosis, a life-threatening condition occurring in 10-80% of children at diabetes diagnosis. Ketoacidosis is preventable with prompt recognition of signs, urgent attendance to care, and rapid diagnosis and management. The objective of this study was to plan for the development of an intervention to recognize signs of diabetes in children and prevent ketoacidosis, that is evidence and theory-informed and has potential for widespread implementation and long-term impact across Canada.

Social determinants of health (SDH) impact diabetes outcomes. In response to COVID-19, virtual care ensured healthcare access. However, socially disadvantaged groups have less technology access and skills, leading to potential disparities. We assessed the association between SDH and virtual visit success in children living with diabetes.

Diabetes and prediabetes are associated with premature death and are recognized as conditions of accelerated biologic aging. To date, the best measurement of biologic age is chronologic age. Measures of biologic age that can replace chronologic age as a predictor of death can better approximate risk in affected individuals.

The rising incidence of type 2 diabetes (T2D) among Indigenous peoples, exacerbated by historical injustices and health inequities, underscores the need for culturally-sensitive health interventions that address both the physiological and psychological burdens of diabetes. This research protocol describes a community-driven initiative aimed at enhancing diabetes management among Indigenous youth and young adults in Canada, leveraging the lived experience and leadership of Indigenous young adults.

Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP1RA), a relatively new class of drugs, are widely used in treating type 2 diabetes mellitus and obesity. Maintaining long-term glycemic control lowers the risk of development and progression of diabetic retinopathy. However, recent literature has raised concerns about transient worsening of the condition with GLP1RA use.

Obesity and aging are associated with increased activity of the innate immune system. This chronic systemic inflammation contributes to the development of type 2 diabetes and long-term complications and is partly driven by the activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome. We conducted a comparative analysis of clinical parameters, non-esterified fatty acid (NEFA) profiles, immune cell subsets, and inflammatory responses of peripheral blood mononuclear cells obtained from both healthy individuals and those diagnosed with type 2 diabetes.

Patient-centered care is a hallmark of family medicine, and patient-centered care for diabetes has been associated with better outcomes. The Primary Care Diabetes Support Program (PCDSP) in London, Ontario, uses a patient-centered model of care and targets three groups of patients at high risk for diabetes complications: 1) medically complex, 2) socially complex, and 3) those without a primary care provider. We describe, from the patient’s perspectives, how the PCDSP operationalizes patient-centered care.
