A 52-week phase III RCT finds sitagliptin preserves hip bone density in women with type 2 diabetes, which declines on placebo, but with no effect at other sites. PICO summary and commentary.
A combined mouse and clinical study finds the anabolic agent rhPTH(1-34) reverses low bone turnover in type 2 diabetic bone disease and improves bone density more than alendronate. PICO summary and commentary.
A double-blind RCT finds a single high dose of vitamin D before an ultramarathon favourably shifts bone turnover markers, though mega-dosing remains experimental. PICO summary and commentary.
A 12-month study finds adolescents with poorly controlled type 1 diabetes have low bone density, but glycaemic change does not correlate with bone, while IGF-1 does. PICO summary and commentary.
A small open-label RCT found no significant difference in clinical pregnancy rates between letrozole ovulation and programmed endometrial preparation for frozen embryo transfer in women with PCOS, with letrozole needing simpler luteal support. PICO summary and expert commentary.
A small single-centre RCT of CGM-guided individualised care versus self-monitoring in 80 women with diabetes in pregnancy, with no between-group glycaemic superiority demonstrated. PICO summary and expert commentary.
A secondary analysis of a weight-loss-maintenance RCT found that low-calorie-diet weight loss raised serum 25(OH)D in both sexes, but further loss and low baseline vitamin D tracked with maintenance only in women. PICO summary and expert commentary.
