Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The heterogeneity in age at onset and clinical presentation within the same form of diabetes, differences in the response to treatments in patients with the same phenotype, and the variability in the course of the disease require personalized management. The precision medicine approach has been applied to individuals with monogenic diabetes (i.e., MODY, neonatal diabetes) and to type 1 and type 2 diabetes to select treatments that are most likely to offer benefits and least likely to cause side effects, with improvement of clinical outcomes and economic cost saving.
In the last 10 years, genetic, metabolomic, immunologic, and other sophisticated tests have become less expensive and more widespread; therefore, it is expected that precision medicine will become increasingly applied to diabetes care.
This Special Issue of Journal of Personalized Medicine aims to highlight the current state of precision medicine applied to diabetes to show some of the latest findings and future perspectives and integrate expertise from basic science, clinical, and population-based approaches. Topics of interest include novel insights into gene testing, polymorphisms and bioinformatics, metabolites and intestinal microbiome analysis, as well as their association with the risk of disease, drug metabolism, or disease complications.
