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.

Published data still highlighted discordances between GMI (parameter estimating HbA1c from CGM report) and laboratory HbA1c, with reasons yet to be explored. This study 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 (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.

Ontario listed SGLT-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) as regular public drug benefits for adults age ≥ 65, while other Canadian provinces providing benefits for SGLT2i implemented special authorization restrictions. We hypothesized that special authorization led to lower SGLT2i use among older adults with diabetes and cardiovascular disease (CVD) in other provinces (Alberta, Manitoba, New Brunswick, and Saskatchewan), compared to Ontario.

Adolescents and young adults (AYA) often report feeling poorly prepared and dissatisfied with the process of transitioning from pediatric to adult type 1 diabetes (T1D) care. We aimed to examine the impact of Bridging the Gap (BTG), an audit and feedback-based intervention, on transition care.

We appreciate the interest of Huda and colleagues with regard to our recent article examining the national trends in lower extremity complications related to type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus [1,2]. We agree that a more comprehensive understanding of the temporal trends in diabetes-related foot complications and limb amputation is limited by several factors, mostly pertaining to data availability at a pan-Canadian level. There are no Canadian Institute for Health Information data holdings that allow one to identify a diabetes diagnosis date across the Canadian population; this contrasts with validated province-based databases, such as the Ontario Diabetes Database [3].
