There's major changes in reporting Diabetes without complications. 🧵

New code E11.A- is for Type 2 diabetes mellitus in REMISSION WITHOUT complications. These changes requires specific documentation from the provider. Coders cannot assume...

Blockade of glucagon receptor induces α-cell hypersecretion by hyperaminoacidemia in mice - Nature Communications The glucagon receptor (GCGR) antagonism is a potential target for diabetes therapy but side effects such as α-cell hyperplasia and hyperglucagonemia limit therapeutic development. Here the authors rep...

Which drugs alter CBG readings? Does this mean they can’t be used?

Patients with a BMI > 40 kg.m-2 are classified as being morbidly obese and are rated as ASA physical status 3.

Using gastric ultrasound to assess gastric emptying is potentially challenging in these patients.

Do most clinicians in your institution adhere to the local peri-operative corticosteroid supplementation guidelines?

Do you know what your guidelines recommend?

Exciting data from clinical trials of hypoimmune human islets! #EndocrineSky (correcting the info as correctly pointed out by @nictitate.bsky.social - I got too excited thinking hip stem cell islets 😏)

Any trials #EndocrineSky ?

G6PC2 controls glucagon secretion by defining the set point for glucose in pancreatic α cells Glucose suppression of glucagon secretion by pancreatic α cells depends on glucose-6-phosphatase 2, encoded by the human glycemic trait locus G6PC2.

Preprint on G6PC2 pancreatic alpha cell biology, now published. In particular, the complementary in vivo/in vitro experiments nicely show the importance of G6PC2 in glucagon secretion and how glycolysis flux affects secretion! @kkaestner.bsky.social #EndocrineSky www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

I tried to make a feed for news and discussions on all things pancreas biology (exocrine and endocrine!). You can post with the hashtags #PancSky #BetaCellSky #EndocrineSky . Let me know if it is useful and how to modify to make it better!

Just got a phone call from my primary care doc friend - their patient suddenly requires #priorauth for glargine.

INSULIN GLARGINE.

What in the actual bleeping bleep bleep.

Incidentally, patient has UHC.

Unacceptable.
