Abstract
Diabet. Med. 28, 276-286 (2011) ABSTRACT: Aims To give an overview on the relationship between diabetes mellitus and increased cancer risk. Methods We identified studies evaluating the association between diabetes mellitus, its treatment with insulin and insulin analogues and malignancies, paying special attention to studies on in vitro and in vivo effects of the long-acting analogue insulin glargine. Results Even although the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying the relationship between elevated cancer risk and Type 2 diabetes mellitus are not completely understood, hyperinsulinaemia ...

Abstract
A subsequent pregnancy is not necessarily associated with an increased risk of Type 2 diabetes following gestational diabetes. Instead, the absence of recurrent gestational diabetes in a subsequent pregnancy may identify a lessened risk of developing Type 2 diabetes in this high-risk patient population. ...

Diabet. Med. 28, 306-310 (2011) ABSTRACT: Objectives To develop a simplified true/false response format of the Revised Diabetes Knowledge Scale and assess scaling assumptions, reliability and validity of the binary response format (the Simplified Diabetes Knowledge Scale) and compare with a multiple-choice version. Methods Ninety-nine respondents attending an outpatient clinic completed the multiple-choice version of the Revised Diabetes Knowledge Scale and the simplified version of the Revised Diabetes Knowledge Scale. The response patterns and psychometric properties of both questionnaires were assessed ...

Abstract
Diabet. Med. 28, 333-337 (2011) ABSTRACT: Aims Patient-reported outcomes from clinical trials offer insight into the impact of disease on health-related quality of life, including treatment satisfaction. This patient-reported outcomes evaluation was a substudy of a 26-week randomized, open-label trial comparing the once-daily injectable human GLP-1 analogue liraglutide with once-daily oral sitagliptin, both added to metformin. The patient reported outcomes substudy aimed to evaluate treatment satisfaction using the Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire (DTSQ) at baseline and 26 weeks. Methods In the main ...

Abstract
Diabet. Med. 28, 175–178 (2011) Abstract Aims To investigate the impact of wound fluid lactate concentration on diagnosing soft-tissue infection in diabetic foot ulcers.Methods Lactate concentration in wound fluid obtained from diabetic foot ulcers was determined using a lactate analyser and compared with clinical examination findings.Results Overall median wound fluid lactate concentration was 21.03 mm (5.58–80.40 mm). Wound lactate levels were significantly higher in infected compared with non-infected diabetic foot ulcers (P = 0.001). Non-infected diabetic foot ulcers that healed within 6 months of treatment showed ...
