Subcutaneous (SC) insulin has been studied as an alternative to intravenous (IV) insulin to reduce resource consumption in the management of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). However, the feasibility and safety of an SC protocol has not been demonstrated in a Canadian context.

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 and type 2 diabetes (T1D and T2D, respectively) in youth may be increasing globally, but 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 <20 years of age in Nova Scotia (NS).

Delayed diagnosis of diabetes in children can lead to diabetic ketoacidosis, a life-threatening condition occurring in 10% to 80% of children at diabetes diagnosis. Ketoacidosis is preventable with prompt recognition of signs, urgent attendance to care, and rapid diagnosis and management. Our aim in 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.

Physical activity (PA) is a critical component of diabetes management, resulting in lower glycated hemoglobin (A1C) levels [1,2] and reduced risk of complications and comorbidities [3,4]. Despite this, most people living with diabetes do not meet current guidelines [5,6]. Although adherence to regular PA is challenging across all populations, those with diabetes may face specific barriers toward PA adoption and maintenance. Notably, these barriers may also vary according to diabetes type, as individuals who have type 1 or type 2 diabetes (T1D and T2D, respectively) may experience unique challenges.

Social determinants of health (SDH) impact diabetes outcomes. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, virtual care ensured health care 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.

Published data still highlighted discordances between glucose management indicator (GMI; the parameter estimating glycated hemoglobin [A1C] from continuous glucose monitoring [CGM] reporting) and laboratory A1C, for reasons yet to be explored. In our study we aimed to identify potential clinical factors contributing to these discordances.

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 (GLP1-RAs), a relatively new class of drugs, are used widely 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 use of GLP1-RAs. In this review we evaluate the association between GLP1-RAs and retinopathy in patients with diabetes mellitus. We also analyzed the available evidence on the potential association between semaglutide therapy and nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION).
