    • Life Sciences

“Diabetes Care On Air” is a new podcast produced by the American Diabetes Association to present the latest research published in Diabetes Care, the most influential journal devoted exclusively to clinical diabetes research. In each episode, co-hosts Alice Cheng, MD, and Michael Rickels, MD, MS, will interview key authors of editor-selected feature articles and will highlight the latest research presented in Diabetes Care. Join Alice and Mike as they explore the latest high-impact research and information on diabetes care, treatment, and prevention. 
In this inaugural episode, Alice and Mike are first joined by the new editor of Diabetes Care, Dr. Steven Kahn (1:18). Steven shares his vision for the journal and discusses the new initiatives and features that the journal is launching in early 2023. (See Steven’s editorial in the January 2023 issue: https://doi.org/10.2337/dci22-0045.)
At 13:39, Alice interviews Nestoras Mathioudakis of Johns Hopkins University, the senior author of “Racial Disparities in Access and Use of Diabetes Technology Among Adult Patients With Type 1 Diabetes in a U.S. Academic Medical Center.” This study, which can be freely accessed at https://doi.org/10.2337/dc22-1055, is one of the editor-selected feature articles in the January 2023 issue of Diabetes Care.
At 26:45, Mike is joined by Patrik Smidtslund and Lena M. Thorn of the University of Helsinki. Patrik and Lena are the lead and senior authors, respectively, of “Prognosis After First-Ever Myocardial Infarction in Type 1 Diabetes Is Strongly Affected by Chronic Kidney Disease.” This study is also an editor-selected feature article in the January 2023 issue of Diabetes Care, and it can be freely accessed at
In the “Diabetes Care Rapid Exchange,” at 37:35, Alice and Mike wrap up the episode by discussing some of the other learnings in the January 2023 issue of Diabetes Care. Studies highlighted in this segment include:
