Introduction: Flash glucose monitoring expansion to an increasing number of patients with type 1 diabetes, coupled with its increased accuracy and ease of use, has increased available data on glycemic control in this population and allows detection of improvement areas in diabetes education and treatment.Objective: To analyze main parameters standardized by ATTD consensus (2019) in our population of patients with type 1 diabetes using flash glucose monit...

Introduction: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is the metabolic disorder most frequently associated with pregnancy, presenting important maternal and fetal implications. Strict glycemic control through lifestyle measures and/or pharmacotherapy is essential to achieve adequate obstetric-perinatal results. The objective of this study is to compare baseline characteristics and perinatal results in patients diagnosed with GDM after performing oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) ...

Introduction: Treatment with Cinacalcet results in decreased uptake of radiopharmaceutical (because of decreased secretory activity of parathyroid glands as shown by previous studies in secondary hyperparathyroidism). This effect has not been studied in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT).Objective: Evaluate clinical and MIBI scintigraphy uptake changes of adenomas in patients treated with Cinacalcet.Patients and metho...
