Genome-wide association study in @UK_biobank identifies an interaction between metformin and CUBN gene variant that predisposes to metformin-induced vitamin B12 deficiency in T2D patients. @daniel_f_carr @LivUNIISMIB @dundeeuni @harvardmed link.springer.com/article/10… 🔓

Who measures B12 levels in metformin treated patients? With colleagues from Liverpool We’ve published on a large pharmacogenetic effect - where variants in the cubulin gene increase risk of B12 deficiency @DiabetologiaJnl @dundeeuni link.springer.com/article/10…

The 14% of white population with AA genotype are 2.5 times more likely to require B12 replacement GG. Equates to 10% requiring B12 replacement by 11 years after starting metformin with AA genotype vs 21 years for GG. A large effect!

To prescribe or not to prescribe? #SGLT2 inhibitors slow #CKD progression but it's unclear who with #T2D and mild/no CKD truly benefits. This new model predicts individual benefit, supporting more targeted prescribing. #PrecisionMedicine link.springer.com/article/10… 🔓@Exeter_Diabetes

💥Those of us working in science comms are perhaps too fond of the word "gamechanging" but this research by @john_den_ @athattersley @Exeter_Diabetes, published today in @TheLancet and announced at #DUKPC25, truly deserves that description 💥

“This tool could mark the most significant advance in type 2 diabetes care in more than a decade, improving health outcomes for millions.” Dr Elizabeth Robertson, Director of Research and Clinical at Diabetes UK.
