Role of glucagon in metabolic diseases
ABSTRACT Currently, diabetes is defined as “a chronic hyperglycemic state resulting from the absolute or relative insufficiency of insulin action,” emphasizing its characterization as an insulin‐related disease. However, glucagon dysregulation should also play a critical role in the pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes.

ABSTRACT Glycated albumin (GA), the product of nonenzymatic glycation of serum albumin, reflects the mean glucose levels over the preceding approximately 2 weeks, bridging the gap between daily self‐monitoring of blood glucose and the roughly 3‐month window covered by glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) measurement.

Reimbursement Design and Procedure-Level Gross Profit of Robot-Assisted Gastrectomy in a Publicly Financed Health System: Evidence From Japan. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Publicly financed healthcare systems must balance technological innovation with fiscal constraints. Reimbursement mechanisms influence institutional decisions regarding the adoption of high‐cost surgical technologies. This study evaluated whether current reimbursement designs adequately reflect procedure‐level gross surgical profit of robot ...

ABSTRACT Aims Weight loss by laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) compared to medical weight loss (low‐calorie diet: LCD) ameliorates diabetes and metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). We aimed to evaluate changes in liver pathology 1‐year after LSG and their associations with metabolic factors in Japanese participants with

Low fasting serum C‐peptide levels were independently associated with abnormal sural nerve action potential amplitude measured by DPNCheck® in patients with type 2 diabetes. Fasting serum C‐peptide may serve as a clinically relevant marker for diabetic polyneuropathy. ABSTRACT Aims/Introduction The association between the fasting serum C‐peptide levels

Problem: Surgical goals should be plausible and valuable to patients. Yet the goal of surgery is rarely discussed preoperatively. Methods: We used human centered design to develop and alpha test a strategy to document the goal of surgery for each episode of surgical care. Findings: Surgeons can use this strategy to routinely document “What Matters” for
