- The correlation of thyroid function with insulin requirements was assessed in 30 patients T1DM & chronic autoimmune thyroiditis (CAT) treated with levothyroxine
- Basal & bolus insulin correlated positively with TSH (r=0.77, 0.74) & negatively with FT4 (r=−0.75, -0.82) & FT3 (r=−0.71, -0.82)
- Patients with higher TSH & lower FT4/FT3 required greater insulin doses, independent of HbA1c, BMI, & disease duration.

- In MASLD, GLP 1RAs cause weight loss without clinically meaningful muscle mass loss (n=810, 12 studies).
- Muscle mass reductions were modest and proportional to weight loss over 12–52 weeks.
- No decline in muscle strength (HGS, STS) despite significant weight loss.
- Muscle quality preserved or improved (↓ myosteatosis); exercise and adequate protein remain important.
8 May, 26Diabetologia.
- In a registry analysis across six high income countries (2000–2023), 114,559 dementia deaths occurred in people with diabetes vs 589,706 without, over 42 & 244 million person yrs
- Dementia mortality rose 7.6–42.4% per 5 yrs at ages 80–90, with greater increases among diabetics
- Risk factors included age, sex, and jurisdictional variation, with Alzheimer’s & vascular dementia mortality rising more in diabetics.
8 May, 26Int J COPD
- Early COPD detection is difficult in primary care settings where spirometry is not available
- This study developed a questionnaire-based model to estimate FEV1/FVC in smokers aged ≥40 years
- Using age, smoking intensity, exertional dyspnea, and paroxysmal dyspnea, the four-item model modestly predicted airflow limitation
- It may help identify individuals at COPD risk where spirometry is unavailable.
