TEACHER’S DAY EDITION
Learning, Discovery & Better Diabetes Care
As we bring you this special Teacher’s Day Edition of GEMS, we celebrate the spirit of teaching that lies at the heart of medicine and science. Every breakthrough begins with a question, every new discovery begins with learning, and every meaningful advance in healthcare becomes valuable when that knowledge is shared. Teachers, mentors, educators, researchers, and healthcare professionals all play a role in this journey, helping us understand, question, innovate, and translate knowledge into better care.
This edition brings together six i[AA1.1]nformative articles covering emerging concerns in maternal health, cardiometabolic health, muscle health, innovative diabetes therapies, and simple lifestyle interventions. We explore heat and wildfire smoke during pregnancy, the changing burden of cardiovascular disease among Hispanic adults in the United States, the potential role of vitamin C in protecting skeletal muscle during hyperglycemia, an innovative engineered probiotic designed to release GLP-1 when blood glucose rises. The edition also highlights an important message on physical activity: it’s not only how many steps we take, but also how fast we walk, with new evidence exploring the combined role of step count and walking intensity in health outcomes.
Our Device Update features Mint™, a newly FDA-cleared tubeless insulin patch pump from Beta Bionics, with its reusable-and-disposable design, CGM connectivity, smartphone integration, and the proposed 3D Intelligence™ adaptive insulin-dosing platform. Alongside the scientific updates, GEMS brings practical nutrition through our Recipe of the Month: Asparagus & Sun-Dried Tomato Custards, a light and protein-rich option providing 60 calories and 9 g of protein per serving.
The edition also features a Drug Update, highlighting Mimrylo™ (rusfertide) and its novel hepcidin-mimicking approach for adults with polycythemia vera inadequately controlled with existing therapies.
Finally Don’t miss our Picture and Video of the Month!
From emerging research and innovative therapies to nutrition, lifestyle, devices, and stories from the history of healthcare, this Teacher’s Day Edition reflects the continuous cycle of learning, discovery, teaching, and progress that drives better care.
