August 2025 in “Journal of Diabetes and its Complications” This review found that among young adults with type 1 diabetes, hearing loss prevalence ranged from 22.6% to 48.0% and was associated with age, diabetes duration, and systolic blood pressure, while peridontitis and alveolar bone loss also showed varying prevalence patterns.
October 2024 in “Journal of the Endocrine Society” In this case report, a 40-year-old woman with systemic lupus erythematosus developed Type B Insulin Resistance Syndrome, characterized by severe hyperglycemia despite high insulin doses, requiring immunosuppressive therapy to manage refractory symptoms.
September 2011 in “American Journal of Transplantation” In this case report, a patient with alopecia universalis experienced hair regrowth after clinical islet transplantation, which may indicate the potential impact of immunosuppressive therapy on this autoimmune condition.
April 2022 in “Diabetes Therapy” In this case report, the researchers emphasize the importance of regular prostate exams and PSA tests for diabetic men, including those who are hypogonadal, because prostate cancer development is linked to intraprostatic dihydrotestosterone levels, not serum testosterone levels.
This study found that testosterone enhances glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in male and female human islets, requiring conversion to DHT and E2 via SRD5A1 and aromatase.

December 2017 in “Diabetes Therapy” This study highlights the need to prioritize early prevention of type 2 diabetes mellitus by focusing on early pathophysiologic mechanisms such as insulin resistance, rather than hyperglycemia, as conditions like non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and polycystic ovarian syndrome are early indicators of future diabetes risk.
January 2003 in “Springer eBooks” Certain genes are linked to type 1 and type 2 diabetes in kids, and changes in these genes can also cause other diabetes-related conditions.

This study found that testosterone enhances glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in male and female human islets through its conversion to DHT and E2, a process disrupted by 5α-reductase and aromatase inhibitors.
July 2026 in “Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology” GLP-1RA medications may increase the risk of hair loss, especially in non-diabetic people.
