In response to the increasing prevalence of obesity, the consumption of high-calorie and high-sugar foods and an unprecedented aging population, type 2 diabetes (T2D) continues to rise globally. The International Diabetes Federation reported that 589 million individuals aged 20 to 79 years had ...
New data presented at ENDO 2026 highlighted the continued evolution of endocrine care, with studies spanning rare disease management, long-term hormone replacement, artificial intelligence-supported screening and real-world treatment outcomes. Across several presentations, investigators reported sustained improvements in biochemical, metabolic, skeletal and patient-reported outcomes, while also emphasising the importance of long-term follow-up and careful interpretation of emerging data.
Data presented at ENDO 2026 highlighted investigational approaches for difficult-to-control type 2 diabetes and acquired hypothalamic obesity, real-world outcomes with tirzepatide, and wider health impacts of GLP-1-based therapy.
Peripheral neuropathy is a common and clinically heterogeneous condition resulting from damage to the peripheral nervous system, affecting sensory, motor and autonomic fibers.1 Its diagnostic complexity stems from a broad spectrum of etiologies, including metabolic, autoimmune, infectious, toxic, neoplastic and ...
Following ECO 2026, Dr Line Kristin Johnson discusses new evidence supporting structured rapid weight loss programmes, highlighting their potential to improve long-term weight loss, achieve risk-reduction targets and reshape obesity management.
Welcome to the summer 2026 issue of touchREVIEWS in Endocrinology. In this issue, we bring together articles that reflect the evolving complexity of endocrine and metabolic disease, while highlighting the growing importance of patient-centred care, translational science and interdisciplinary management. We ...
Urinary lithogenesis processes are activated in patients with obesity, metabolic syndrome (MetS), and type 2 diabetes (T2D). This is a relatively unfamiliar topic among endocrinologists. Beyond the epidemiological evidence accumulated over the recent years, the purpose of this paper is ...
The past century has witnessed substantial evolution in the assessment and management of type 1 diabetes (T1D), paralleling advances in our understanding of the condition and in innovation in technology. Since the ground-breaking discovery of insulin in the 1920s, T1...
In this interview, Dr Iulia Pirga reflects on key advances in endocrinology, persistent challenges in metabolic disease and the growing potential of AI to transform patient care and clinical decision-making.
ObesityWeek® 2025 highlighted obesity as a chronic, multi-system disease that links cardiovascular, renal, and metabolic health. New data from clinical trials showcased therapies improving weight, blood pressure, and inflammation, signalling a shift toward integrated care where obesity management becomes central to cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic health.
Dr John Doupis shares his highlights from EASD 2025, discussing breakthrough trials in diabetes and obesity, emerging therapies, and how advancing technology and AI are reshaping the future of diabetes care.
Gestational diabetes (GD) is a heterogeneous disorder that arises when pancreatic insulin secretion fails to compensate for the insulin resistance of pregnancy. A disbalance in either component, insufficient secretion or excessive resistance, can lead to GD and reflects its variable ...
We spoke with Dr Garvey at EASD 2025 to learn more about the mechanism of action of cagrilintide, the design and outcomes of the REDEFINE 1 analysis, and the future directions for this promising therapeutic option.
This Q&A with Dr Paul Brennan offers a practical guide to the diagnosis and management of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH). Covering key risk factors, non-invasive diagnostic tools, lifestyle strategies, and emerging therapies, it provides clinicians with clear approaches to early detection and comprehensive patient care.
Approximately 20–34% of hospitalized patients have a diagnosis of diabetes, while many others experience stress hyperglycaemia, both increasing the occurrence of dysglycaemia in the hospital.1 Hyperglycaemia is associated with increased infection rates and higher mortality rates. Conversely, hypoglycaemia can lead to ...
Thyroid eye disease (TED), also known as Graves’ orbitopathy, is a complex autoimmune disorder driven by an interplay of immune cells, orbital fibroblasts and tissue remodelling factors that lead to inflammation, oedema and, ultimately, potential vision loss.1 While the disease ...
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a life-threatening infection caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2).1Â Diabetes mellitus is one of the most frequent comorbidities, related to hospitalization due to SARS-CoV-2 infection, as well as a risk factor for disease severity, ...
As we continue advancing the field of endocrinology, I’m excited to spotlight the impactful work being done by the American Association of Clinical Endocrinology (AACE). Our mission is to elevate the practice of clinical endocrinology to improve global health. ...
