| | Dear Dr Wirawan,
We are pleased to share with you our September content update, featuring journal news, top articles and our most recent table of contents.
Featured Collection BMC Medicine will soon be launching a new article collection guest edited by Prof Naveed Sattar and Prof John Petrie, focused on the latest breakthroughs in treatment of Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes. We are seeking submissions of original research articles (including systematic reviews and meta-analyses) that provide important insights into pathogenesis, genetic risk factors, ethnicity, risk factor multipliers, management of the disease in complex patients, pharmacotherapy and new data from ongoing trials.
