Endocrine Society Research Round-up
People taking glucocorticoids at higher risk for Covid-19 Individuals taking glucocorticoids on a routine basis may be unable to mount a normal stress response and are at high risk if they are infected with the virus causing Covid-19, according to a new editorial published in the Endocrine Society’s Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism. Published data to date shows that these patients are over-represented in those at…
Children with type 1 diabetes report positivity
Research findings presented to the 2019 IES Annual Meeting in Galway stated that children who have been diagnosed with type 1 diabetes show a high level of positivity regarding school life, home life and partaking in activities, while separate research showed that a significant proportion of children with type 1 diabetes remain inactive.

Benefits of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation discussed
A research presentation given at the 2019 Irish Endocrine Society (IES) Annual Meeting demonstrated how transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) appears to improve diet control among obese patients by alleviating hunger, as well as lowering cholesterol and C-peptide. A group of subjects who were eating a calorie-controlled diet and also received TENS for six weeks…
