TL;DR: The prevalence of complications and comorbidities was higher among teenagers and young adults who had been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes compared with type 1, but frequent in both groups, and these findings support early monitoring of youth with diabetes for development of complications.

TL;DR: A meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies for estimated glomerular filtration rate suggests that genetic determinants of eGFR are mediated largely through direct effects within the kidney and highlight important cell types and biological pathways.

TL;DR: Although the "Exome Array" was used to genotype >200,000 low-frequency and rare coding sequence variants across the genome in 56,538 individuals, none of these four variants was associated with risk for CHD, suggesting that examples of low- frequencies with robust effects on both lipids and CHD will be limited.

TL;DR: The frequency of DKA in youth with type 1 diabetes, although stable, remains high, indicating a persistent need for increased awareness of signs and symptoms of diabetes and better access to health care.

TL;DR: This large collection of blood pressure–associated loci suggests new therapeutic strategies for hypertension, emphasizing a link with cardiometabolic risk.
