A review of bone metabolism and developments in medical treatment of the diabetic Charcot foot
Charcot neuro-osteoarthropathy is a rare but severe disorder of bones and joints in weight-bearing skeletal structures. It exclusively occur in patients with neuropathy, and as neuropathy is among the most common chronic complications to diabetes,1 –3 it is among diabetics that most cases today occur. By far the most common location is in the feet (Charcot foot),4–8 usually localized unilaterally to either the midfoot, hindfoot or ankle.9,10 (Source: Journal of Diabetes and Its Complications)

The association of gestational diabetes mellitus with fetal birth weight
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and different time-point glucose levels might have different effects on fetal birth weight. The aim of this study was to further evaluate the associations of GDM and different time-point blood glucose levels with fetal birth weight in a prospective cohort study.

Waist-to-hip ratio is the most relevant obesity index at each phase of insulin secretion among obese patients
We aimed to explore the relationship between different obesity indices and insulin secretion at each phase among obese subjects and to find out the most relevant obesity index. Height, weight, waist circumstance, and hip circumstance were obtained among 419 obese subjects to calculate body mass index (BMI), waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), waist-to-height ratio, body adiposity index (BAI), conicity index, abdominal volume index and a body shape index (ABSI). Fasting plasma glucose and fasting insulin were detected to calculate HOMA- β. (Source: Journal of Diabetes and Its Complications)

The effects of diabetes therapy on bone: A clinical perspective
The effects of diabetes and diabetes therapy on bone are less known among clinicians. Traditionally, the emphasis of diabetes therapy has been on reducing cardiovascular risk by facilitating reductions in weight, blood pressure, blood sugar, systemic inflammation, and lipid levels. Now, with ample research demonstrating that patients with diabetes are more susceptible to bone fractures relative to controls, there has been a greater or renewed interest in studying the effects of diabetes therapy on bone.
