Review
Three population studies of more than 4,000 Greenlanders found a notably high prevalence of diabetes (9% in 1999-2001 rising to 16% in 2018) in the adult population. In this review, we argue that this is due to genetic factors, rapid social changes, ageing of the population and changes in diet and physical activity. A national diabetes programme was implemented in 2008, aiming to improve care for patients with diabetes in Greenland. As a result of this, diagnostic activity and quality of diabetes care have improved. The incidence of diabetic complications is comparable to the one of western countries, but this notion warrants further studies.

In this communication, we provide a bird's eye view of the various ways in which infectious diseases intersect with diabetes. We list the ways in which infectious diseases can influence glucose homoeostasis and diabetes management, and explores how diabetes care is associated with infections and infection management. This is especially important for health care providers in regions with a high burden of infectious disease.

Diabetes mellitus is a common condition which all clinicians will encounter in their clinical practice. The most common form is type 2 diabetes followed by type 1 diabetes. However, there are many other atypical forms of diabetes which are important for a clinician to consider as it can impact on the diagnosis and their management.This article focuses on maturity onset diabetes of the young (MODY), latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA), ketosis-prone diabetes and other secondary forms of diabetes such as pancreatic cancer and haemochromatosis. We briefly describe the key clinical features of these forms of diabetes and their investigations and treatment.

Review
The purpose of this review is to provide an update on the changing face of paediatric type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes. Paediatric diabetes is on the rise, with extensive research dedicated to understanding its pathophysiology, comorbidities and complications. As obesity continues to increase among all youth, differentiating between type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes has become increasingly difficult but remains important for optimising treatment, anticipating complications and predicting disease risk. Novel treatments are emerging, with the ultimate goal being to achieve glycaemic control, limit weight gain, improve quality of life and reduce comorbidities. In this review, we focus on updates regarding the epidemiology, clinical presentation, comorbidities and complications of paediatric type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes and conclude with current and emerging treatments.

Review
More than 80% of pediatric solid organ transplant (SOT) recipients now survive into young adulthood and many encounter transplant-related complications. Post-transplantation diabetes mellitus (PTDM), sometimes also referred to as post-transplant diabetes or new onset diabetes after transplant, occurs in 3-20% of pediatric SOT recipients depending upon the organ transplanted, age at transplantation, immunosuppressive regimen, family history, and time elapsed since transplant. To diagnose PTDM, hyperglycemia must persist beyond the initial hospitalization for transplantation when a patient is on stable doses of immunosuppressive medications. Though standard diagnostic criteria used by the American Diabetes Association (ADA) to diagnose diabetes are employed, clinicians need to be aware of the limitations of using these criteria in this unique patient population. Management of PTDM parallels strategies used for type 2 diabetes (T2D), while also carefully considering comorbidities and potential interactions with immunosuppressive medications in these patients. In caring for patients with PTDM, it is important to be familiar with these interactions and comorbidities in order to coordinate care with the transplant team and optimize outcomes for these patients.
