University Hospitals in Cleveland is now offering the therapy that freed 70% of trial participants from insulin after just one year.
Researchers in Hong Kong discovered that combining advanced imaging with a diabetes drug slashes heart death rates for high-risk patients. The breakthrough offers new hope for millions living with both diabetes and heart disease.
Scientists at the University of Chicago have developed a breakthrough nanoparticle system that delivers protective mRNA to insulin-producing cells, potentially preventing type 1 diabetes before it starts. The treatment worked in both mouse and human cells, offering hope for the 1.6 million Americans living with this autoimmune disease.
Scientists at the University of Central Florida are developing a groundbreaking treatment for diabetic neuropathy that could help millions avoid relying on opioids and antidepressants. A $747,000 federal grant will fund research into regulating nerve signals instead of just masking pain.
A breakthrough diabetes pill helped nearly 90% of patients reach healthy blood sugar levels while also triggering significant weight loss. The convenient once-daily medication could transform treatment for millions living with type 2 diabetes.
Scientists just cracked a major challenge in diabetes treatment: lowering blood sugar and burning fat without losing muscle. The experimental pill works differently from popular drugs like Ozempic and could change how we treat type 2 diabetes.
A groundbreaking insulin inhaler could soon spare millions of Type 1 diabetes patients from daily injections. The medical breakthrough offers new hope for easier diabetes management.
Children with Type 1 diabetes now have their first needle-free insulin option after the FDA approved an inhalable treatment. The breakthrough ends the daily requirement of multiple injections for young patients managing this chronic condition.
A groundbreaking triple-action weekly injection helped people with type 2 diabetes lose more than four times the weight of standard treatment while dramatically improving blood sugar control. The drug works differently than existing medications by targeting three hormones instead of one or two.
After decades of research, personalized medicine has arrived with treatments that once seemed impossible. New diabetes drugs, RSV vaccines, and cancer screening advances are transforming patient care right now.
Scientists have developed a diabetes pill that increases fat burning through muscle metabolism rather than suppressing appetite, avoiding common side effects like muscle loss. The tablet-based treatment showed promising results in early trials with 73 participants.
Scientists at the University of Pennsylvania have developed a way to deliver expensive diabetes drugs through genetically modified lettuce, potentially making life-changing medications affordable for millions. The breakthrough could transform how people access GLP-1 treatments that currently cost hundreds of dollars per month.
Scientists at UC Riverside discovered that compounds in cannabis beyond THC may help explain why regular users often have lower body weight and diabetes risk. The finding could lead to new treatments that offer metabolic benefits without intoxication.
