Welcome to episode no. 12 (November 2023) of Diabetes Care “On Air”—a new and different way to bring the research published in Diabetes Care to life. Join co-hosts Alice Cheng, MD, FRCPC, and Michael Rickels, MD, MS, as they discuss the latest and greatest content in the November 2023 issue of Diabetes Care. 1:43: Mike gets things started with a November fun fact about diabetes: World Diabetes Day is November 14th! The 14th of November was chosen because it is Sir Fredrick Banting’s birthday. More information on World Diabetes Day can be found at worlddiabetesday.org. 2:20: Mike interviews Naveed Sattar, lead author of “Prediction of Cardiometabolic Health Through Changes in Plasma Proteins With Intentional Weight Loss in the DiRECT and DIADEM-I Randomized Clinical Trials of Type 2 Diabetes Remission.” This study is an editor-selected feature article appearing in the November 2023 issue and is openly accessible at https://doi.org/10.2337/dc23-0602. 18:37: Alice interviews Alexander Kutz, lead author of “Comparative Cardiovascular Effectiveness and Safety of SGLT-2 Inhibitors, GLP-1 Receptor Agonists, and DPP-4 Inhibitors According to Frailty in Type 2 Diabetes.” This study is also an editor-selected feature article appearing in the November 2023 issue and is openly accessible at https://doi.org/10.2337/dc23-0671. 30:15: In the “Diabetes Care Rapid Exchange,” Alice and Mike wrap up the episode by reviewing several interesting articles in the November 2023 issue of Diabetes Care.
