Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of hybrid closed loop on glycemic outcomes in young patients aged between 15 and 25 years old with type 1 diabetes, whatever is their initial metabolic control.
The overall objective of the study is to provide personalized nutritional advice based on the gut microbiota profile of children with type 1 diabetes (T1D) or obesity. Specifically, the primary objective of NUTRI-DIET is to validate a dietary model aimed at restoring bacterial species and/or anti-inflammatory metabolites in order to prevent extra-intestinal diseases characterized by dysbiosis, such as T1D and obesity. The primary endpoints of the study will be to monitor the glycemic control indices, i.e., blood glucose (mean of glycemic values, percentage of time-in-range value (TIR), which will be displayed by glycemic sensor) and glycated hemoglobin for diabetic children and Body mass index (BMI) z-score according to World Health Organization (WHO) recommendations (WHO BMI-for-age boys; WHO BMI-for-age girls) for obese children. The secondary objective of the study is to characterize the microbiota profile of the study patients and to test the algorithm under development built from the integration of diet and and gut microbiota composition data that were obtained during the previous observational study NUTRI-T1D.
Low Carbohydrate Diet (LCD) (< 130 g of carbohydrate per day) and ketogenic diet (< 50 g of carbohydrate per day) are popular among patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D). In most cases, LCD allow a better glycemic control and a important decrease of insulin requirements that cannot, however, be the sole result of low carbohydrate intake. However, due to the increase production of ketone bodies and the decrease of the insulin/glucagon rate, this diet is not without risk in T1D patients and some of them develop ketoacidosis. Type 1 diabetes is a autoimmune disease defined by the destruction of the pancreatic beta cells by the effector T cells, in condition of low regulatory T cells (Tregs). Indeed, some nutrients could regulate the plasticity and the function of Tregs, and be involved in the control of some autoimmune diseases in animals models thanks to a direct effect on immune cells of the digestive tract or an indirect effect by microbiota modulation. The study hypothesises that LCD may be able to restore residual insulin secretion in some patients by modulating immunity. The metabolic mechanisms leading to the effects described in patients with T1D patients under LCD have not been studied : in particular, there is no data on the evolution of the residual insulin secretion and no immunological parameter has been studied on these patients.
