A new Scientific Short introduces a simple, data‑driven approach — the Lipid‑ratio plot — that helps labs evaluate low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL‑C) accuracy using existing lipid panel test results.

Learn how this practical tool can reveal proportional and systemic bias across LDL‑C methods without the reference method β-quantification, which is largely unavailable outside of specialized research labs. https://ow.ly/Eo2P50YYqT5

After more than 50 years at the forefront of diabetes research, what excites and concerns one of the leaders in this field?

Dr. David M. Nathan, a professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School who also founded the Massachusetts General Hospital Diabetes Center, recently shared a few insights:

• 𝗨𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗽𝘆 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗳𝗶𝗲𝗹𝗱. Lowering the hemoglobin A1c level remains the foundation of type 1 diabetes treatment.

• 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝘀 𝗽𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗳𝘂𝗹. Lifestyle changes and the medication metformin can significantly delay type 2 diabetes by 58% and 31%, respectively.

• 𝗙𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗱𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗲𝘀 𝗯𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗸𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵𝘀. Decades of National Institutes of Health financial support enabled Nathan’s groundbreaking research.

Dr. Nathan is the winner of ADLM’s 2026 Wallace H. Coulter Lectureship Award, which he received in recognition of his pioneering studies on the treatment and prevention of diabetes.
