Three new diabetes-related studies include these highlights: for those at risk of developing diabetes, long-term use of metformin does not worsen cognitive performance; a score from a validated nomogram predicts diabetes remission with either sleeve gastrectomy or gastric bypass surgery; and another scoring system predicts type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) remission at 1 year following bariatric surgery.References Long-term Metformin Does Not Affect Cognitive Function Luchsinger JA, et al.
