Filter by:Closed-loop systems are an emerging technology that automate hormone delivery. They are quickly paving the way to revolutionize the treatment of type 1 diabetes. Several categories have emerged: dual-hormone (insulin and glucagon) closed-loop systems and closed-loop systems with insulin only, one variety of which is the low glucose suspend safety feature now available from Medtronic (MiniMed640G with SmartGuard). The study described within this protocol is designed to test the efficacy of a new closed-loop algorithm for managing blood glucose in people with type 1 diabetes before and after exercise. The new algorithm will have 3 modes: a single hormone insulin only mode, a dual-hormone insulin and glucagon mode and an insulin only mode with predictive low glucose suspend, all with an exercise detection algorithm. The purpose of this study is to determine whether a dual hormone AP using a stable investigational glucagon with an exercise detection algorithm outperforms both single hormone AP and a low glucose suspend algorithm.
Investigators aim to further the understanding of the various factors that govern the progression of beta-cell death in individuals recently diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes (T1D). Specifically, the investigators wish to examine the utility of plasma-induced signatures and other measures as predictive biomarkers for the rate of C-peptide decline in individuals with recent onset T1D. Persistent C-peptide in individuals with T1D reflects some degree of β-cell function and is clinically associated with a reduction in both severe hypoglycemic events and microvascular complications such as diabetic nephropathy and retinopathy. There is significant heterogeneity in the rate of C-peptide decline in individuals with T1D, reflective of the complex disease process. For example, ~10% of individuals have no discernable fall in stimulated C-peptide after two years from clinical diagnosis as compared to other individuals with very rapid C-peptide decline. It is currently impossible to predict how long, and to what extent, someone will have residual C-peptide production. This complicates clinical management but also the design and interpretation of T1D β-cell preservation trials. The "gold standard" outcome measure of any T1D β-cell preservation trial is the stimulated C-peptide to a mixed meal tolerance test (MMTT). Given the variability in this measure, intervention studies must include more subjects over a longer period of time. This slows the rate of scientific discovery and increases cost. This study aims to define the governing mechanisms of post-onset T1D disease trajectory. Understanding the trajectory of the disease may lead to the development of biomarkers to predict disease progression and therapies that could reverse or prevent the development of Type 1 diabetes.
Investigators aim to further the understanding of environmental factors that underlie the progression to Type 1 diabetes (T1D). Dysbiosis, defined as alterations in intestinal microbiota composition and function, has been hypothesized to increase the risk of developing T1D in those with genetic susceptibility. Dysbiosis may result from modern dietary habits, such as broad consumption of the highly processed Western Diet, or by widespread use of antibiotics. Here, investigators propose to examine the impact of dysbiosis on the endogenous innate inflammation known to exist within families affected by T1D and if probiotic supplementation may beneficially modulate this inflammatory state. Participants will be asked to take the probiotic VSL#3 daily for six weeks. Stool and blood samples will be analyzed before and after the six week course of probiotics.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate global endocrine function within type 1 and type 3c diabetic patients, helping pancreatic polypeptide measurement.
The purpose of this research is to develop DIPPer Academy, a parent-focused, mobile health (mHealth) behavioral intervention to promote glycemic control in young children.
a randomized prospective study aims at comparing the impact of a "living theater" session with a simple "writing workshop " on emotional distress (Problem Areas in Diabetes Questionnaire PAID) and illness perception ( Illness Perception Questionnaire IPQR) during a 5 day education course
The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of insulin therapy when the bolus dose of insulin is calculated on the basis of protein and fat content in food intake, in addition to that of carbohydrates in T1D patients treated by insulin pump. The study is planned to recruit 150 patients with type1 diabetes already practicing functional insulin therapy based on carbohydrate counting in meals. We will therefore study the effect on continuous glucose measured by subcutaneous sensor, of meal bolus adjustments by comparing two groups of T1D patients: - Groupe A takes into account the lipid and protein content in addition to the carbohydrate content - Group B takes into account the carbohydrate content only At randomization, all patients receive dietary and adjustment of bolus doses instructions according to the randomization group. They have to apply these instructions for 3 months. At the end of 3 months, the study groups will be under glucose monitoring during two weeks in the Outpatient Clinic but returns to the investigational site in hospital to download data from the continuous measurement of glucose. In addition, we propose a period of extension similar to that of the main period, namely 3 months of application of dietetic and adaptation of bolus doses instructions and 2 weeks of continuous measurement of glucose. During each 2 weeks period will be assessed specific glucose parameters in the post-prandial period over 4hours (glycemic sensor values in the glucose range between 70-140 mg / dl, glycemic sensor values in the glucose range between 140 -180 mg /dl and > 180 mg /dl) after taking each meal during the 13 days of Glucose Continuous Measurement (GCM), average daily glucose per meal, average blood glucose over the 13-day period after each meal.
To use an enhanced continuous glucose monitor (CGM) experience, including an automated CGM-electronic health record (EHR) data integration system, proactive interventions, and gamification techniques, to increase CGM use among publicly-insured youth with type 1 diabetes (T1D).
During this study, the investigators will perform a collection of biological and device samples (blood, catheters, insulin) in order to investigate the causes of catheter obstructions in patients with type 1 diabetes treated by implanted insulin pumps using intra-peritoneal delivery. This multi-centre study is interventional with minimal constraints. After an inclusion visit, blood samples and an insulin sample from pump reservoir will be collected. During the following year, if a peritoneal catheter is blocked or changed, the explanted catheter and new blood and insulin samples will be collected for examination of the catheter obstruction and search for patient- or insulin-related reasons for obstructions. In this study, 140 patients will be investigated.
Can a type 1 diabetic adult avoid low glucoses and regain hypoglycemia awareness using a hybrid closed loop insulin delivery system? Involvement is 22 months (13 visits) and includes a 4-week Screening Phase and an 18-month Intervention Phase. Participants will undergo 3 Hyperinsulinemic Clamps done at: Baseline (before starting the device and after completing the screening), 6 months (after using the device 6 months), and after using the device for 18 months. This metabolic testing will allow us to measure improvement in hypoglycemia awareness.
