‘Diabetes Insulin Guidance System’ Automatically Updates Weekly Insulin Dosage For Better Glycemic Control, Fewer Hypoglycemic Events
Newly published results from a clinical study of the Diabetes Insulin Guidance System (DIGS™), under development by Hygieia, Inc., demonstrate DIGS' potential to improve blood glucose control for insulin-using patients with type 2 or type 1 diabetes. DIGS automatically adjusted insulin dosage based on each individual's reported blood glucose results. ...
Automated insulin dosage titration system demonstrates positive clinical study results
(Kureczka/Martin Associates) Positive clinical study results show the potential for Hygieia, Inc.'s Diabetes Insulin Guidance System - the first automated insulin dosage titration system. A self-contained handheld version is designed to extend the reach of thousands of health care professionals treating millions of type II and type I insulin users. ...
Cordoning off of lipids of the liver helps manage insulin resistance in the body
A Penn research team, led by Mitchell Lazar, MD, PhD, director of the Institute for Diabetes, Obesity, and Metabolism at the Perelman School of Medicine, University of Pennsylvania, reports in Nature Medicine that mice in which an enzyme called histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) was deleted had massively fatty livers, but ...
Insulin Resistance, Inflammation And A Muscle-Saving Protein
In the online May 2 issue of the journal Cell Metabolism, researchers at the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine publish three distinct articles exploring: the complex interactions of lipids and inflammation in insulin resistance the roles of omega ...
The Relevance Of Benchmarks Questioned In Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Patients Receiving Insulin Infusions
Cardiothoracic surgeons and endocrinologists from Boston Medical Center (BMC) have found that among patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery, achieving Surgical Care Improvement Project (SCIP) benchmarks for glycemic control may be irrelevant when perioperative continuous insulin infusion protocols are implemented. These findings were presented at the Annual meeting ...

New Knowledge About Insulin Production Mapped By Stem Cell Researchers
Scientists from The Danish Stem Cell Center (DanStem) at the University of Copenhagen and Hagedorn Research Institute have gained new insight into the signaling paths that control the body's insulin production. This is important knowledge with respect to their final goal: the conversion of stem cells into insulin-producing beta cells ...

Ultra-Long-Acting Insulin Degludec, Two Phase 3 Studies Published
Two Phase III studies, published in The Lancet, reveal that ultra-long-acting insulin degludec considerably reduced rates of nocturnal hypoglycemia in patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes by 25%, compared to insulin glargine. Insulin degludec is an investigational compound developed by Novo Nordisk. 1,635 individuals with diabetes were ...
Insulin Usually Better Than Oral Drugs For Type 2 Diabetes
According to a study published in , the combination of insulin and metformin may not benefit individuals with type 2 diabetes. Although the combination results in less weight gain, improved blood glucose control and less need for insulin, the researchers state that further research is required in order to ...
