Development and validation of QDiabetes-2018 risk prediction algorithm to estimate future risk of type 2 diabetes: cohort study

TL;DR: Three updated QDiabetes risk models to quantify the absolute risk of type 2 diabetes were developed and validated: model A does not require a blood test and can be used to identify patients for fasting blood glucose (model B) or HBA1c (model C) testing, and model B had the best performance for predicting 10 year risk ofType 2 diabetes to identify those who need interventions and more intensive follow-up, improving on current approaches.

The emerging role of redox-sensitive Nrf2-Keap1 pathway in diabetes.

TL;DR: The molecular mechanism behind Nrf2 activation and the impact of NRF2 activators in diabetes and its complications is summarized and identification of small molecule activators of Nrf1/Keap1 pathway remains significant to enhance cellular defense to overcome the burden of oxidative stress related disturbances.

Reduction in the incidence of type 2 diabetes with lifestyle intervention or metformin.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared a lifestyle intervention with metformin to prevent or delay the development of Type 2 diabetes in nondiabetic individuals. And they found that the lifestyle intervention was significantly more effective than the medication.

International association of diabetes and pregnancy study groups recommendations on the diagnosis and classification of hyperglycemia in pregnancy.

TL;DR: The Brazilian study provided evidence that adverse perinatal outcomes are associated with levels of maternal glycemia below those diagnostic of GDM by American Diabetes Association or World Health Organization criteria, however, the results were potentially confounded by the treatment of G DM.

Follow-up report on the diagnosis of diabetes mellitus.

TL;DR: The International Expert Committee was convened to reexamine the classification and diagnostic criteria of diabetes, which were based on the 1979 publication of the National Diabetes Data Group and subsequent WHO study group and adopted several changes to the diagnostic criteria for diabetes and for lesser degrees of impaired glucose regulation (IFG/IGT).

Effect of treatment of gestational diabetes mellitus on pregnancy outcomes

TL;DR: Treatment of gestational diabetes reduces serious perinatal morbidity and may also improve the woman's health-related quality of life.
