American College of Diabetology

American College of Diabetology There are currently 6 diabetes fellowship programs in the United States. They have been in existence for over 10 years.

The American College of Diabetology is a physician led nonprofit organization passionate about management of diabetes mellitus with the goal of maintaining high standards in diabetes clinical care, to improve the lives of those affected by diabetes. The CDC has projected that 1 in 3 Americans will develop diabetes should the current trends continue. There are not enough endocrinologists to meet th

is need and Primary care physicians are overburdened with the other chronic diseases of a patient. Our goal is to train physicians with excellent diabetes management skills to fight this epidemic.

A recent Endocrine Today article asserts that fracture risk assessments should enter diabetes care conversations earlier.

New research found that individuals with type 1 diabetes have more than double the fracture risk compared to those without diabetes, and that risk starts as early as ages 10-19. Those with diabetic kidney disease have up to five times higher risk for fractures.

Emerging evidence suggests the relationship between diabetes and cancer may be more nuanced. While poor glycemic control is associated with increased risk, Mendelian randomization data point to hyperinsulinemia as a potential driver across several types of cancer.

What does this mean for how clinicians think about diabetes and cancer risk in practice? Dr. Zehra Haider breaks down the latest evidence in her blog post, “Diabetes and Cancer Risk: What the Latest Evidence Means for Clinical Practice.” Head to the comments section to read the full piece.
