It is well-established that persons with type 1 diabetes (T1D) are at an increased risk for morbidity and mortality related to bone fracture due to poor bone health, however we do not fully understand the mechanism behind the increased fracture risk. We are examining bone health and the microbiome in adolescents and young adults with type 1 diabetes to better understand the reasons behind this increased risk.
This study will be conducted on human subjects and is observational, prospective and uncontrolled, defined as a category 3 according to the Jardé Law (RIPH3). It is a national and multicentric study. Enrolled patients are Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) patients who receive the DBLG1 System (CE marked medical device) to be treated. Patients have their regular visits with their own clinician. No change from their usual care must and will be done, including trainings and treatment. At the end of the study, patients will keep their system for their usual care and will continue having usual follow-up visits with their clinician. Data related to their glycemia, complications and quality of life will be collected for 1 year from the beginning of their treatment. A comparison with data collected during the 2 weeks of run-in period, prior to the activation of loop mode, is planned. In case the run-in phase lasts longer than 2 weeks, data collected from the two last weeks only will be kept for analysis and comparison. The study is completed when all patients have their "end of study" file completed in the electronic Case Report Form (eCRF).
Background: Achieving glycemic control without risking hypoglycemia imposes a major challenge in the management of toddlers and preschool children with Type 1 diabetes(T1D). Optimal insulin therapy for young children with T1D should provide effective glycemic control while minimizing the risk of hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia. Despite the advantages of the basal-bolus insulin regimens, hypoglycemia still presents a major barrier in achieving desirable glycemic control. Objectives: To compare the effectiveness of insulin degludec to insulin glargine and NPH in toddlers and preschool children with T1D in terms of glycosylated hemoglobin(HbA1C) and frequency of hypoglycemic episodes.
The study comprises of two segments: a feasibility segment and a Proof of Concept segment. The study is open label, prospective study that will include up to 72 subjects in segment 1 and up to 40 subjects in segment 2. Participants are people with Type 1 or type 2 Diabetes treated with Multiple Daily Injections ( MDI) and Self Monitoring of Blood Glucose (SMBG) or intermittent Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM). The study will include screening, a 2-4-week run-in period and 10-12 weeks intervention period. Subjects will be asked to record their insulin delivery during basal/bolus insulin treatment (using dedicated apps ) and their daily activities (meals, physical activity etc.) using electronic log (implemented on Dedicated Apps), for a total period of 12-16 weeks. The goal of this study is to evaluate the safety of a decision support system for adjustment of insulin treatment plan for people with diabetes using multiple daily injections and monitoring glucose by SMBG or intermittent CGM
A multicenter retrospective observational study among children with type 1 diabetes will be performed. The Objective of this study will be to determine a) the association between the increase in Hba1c in children with type 1 diabetes and confinement due to the COVID 19 pandemic. b) the association between the frequency of patient care during social confinement and the Hba1c values. Different centers from Latin America including Argentina, Peru, Panama, Chile, and Ecuador will participate in this study. Children younger than 17 years with a diagnosis of type 1 diabetes prior to 2018 will be included. Data from the medical records of the participating centers will be collected on the Hb A1c value before and after confinement (6 months completed). The initial (base) value will be taken as a value of HbA1c registered in the patient's Clinical History for the year 2018, 2019, and 2020 pre and post quarantine (Sep-Oct-Nov) 2020, considering compliance with six months of quarantine. Hb A1c should have been performed in the same institution or with the same methods in order to avoid bias.
Although recognized as an autoimmune disease the etiology of type 1 diabetes remains unknown. Virus infections has been suggested as a possible agent triggering the autoimmune reaction finally resulting in beta-cell destruction and fate of insulin secretion. SARS Cov-2 virus enters the infected cells by binding to the ACE-2 receptor, which is abundant in many tissues including the pancreas. Accordingly, SARS Covid-19 infection may trigger the development of type 1 diabetes either by an activation of the immune system or directly via beta-cell infection and destruction. Our aim is to study the impact of the Covid-19 epidemic on the development of type 1 diabetes. This will be done in two ways: a clinical study and an epidemiological follow up. During the next two years, adult patients with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes will be asked to participate. Type 1 diabetes will be diagnosed by usual means and a mixed meal tolerance test will be performed at time of diagnosis and after one year to evaluate beta-cell function. People with type 1 diabetes and serologically documented previous SARS Covid-19 will be compared with people with no previous infection regarding beta-cell function and fate of insulin secretion. In addition, we will estimate the number of new diagnosed type 1 diabetes patients compared to previous years.
Type 1 diabetes (T1D), is associated with considerable risk of morbidity and mortality due to chronic hyperglycemia. Despite innovations in management, pediatric patients of African ancestry (AA) have been found to have persistently higher mean blood glucose (MBG) than European ancestry (EA) patients. The investigators hypothesize that an intervention using advanced insulin delivery technology together with home management will sustainably improve MBG to levels comparable to EA patients without increasing hypoglycemia. The investigators will first perform a small "field trial" of the intervention in African American patients having T1D, with 8.5<HbA1c<12% aged 10-17 years. The primary intervention approach will use a combination of an advanced hybrid closed loop (AHCL) pump + enhanced home video management conferencing with study CDE nurse coordinator. Information gained in the "field trial" will be used to more specifically tailor the intervention in a randomized trial. In the second part , the investigators will conduct a randomized trial of the study intervention in participants with the same clinical features as the field trial for a six month pilot period. Participants will be randomized into one of four groups. The special intervention group (AHCL+conferencing) group will be compared with a group using patient's current insulin management+followup, vs AHCL+without conferencing, vs patient's standard insulin management+conferencing. The investigators will compare HbA1c, MBG, time in glycemic range, ability to adhere with home management, satisfaction with management procedures between the groups.
Celiac disease shares many features of other autoimmune diseases such as type 1 diabetes. Recently, it was published that higher amounts of gluten intake increased the risk for celiac disease. Optimal amounts of gluten to be introduced during weaning have not yet been established. The aim is to investigate if a gluten-restricted diet (e.g. below 3 gram per day) during the first 3 years of life will reduce the risk of develop CDA and IA in genetically predisposed children by the age of 7 years. Children who screened positive for HLA DQ2/X (X is neither DQ2 nor DQ8) in the GPPAD-02 (ASTR1D [ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier NCT03316261]) screening will be contacted by a study nurse.
Lower socioeconomic status (SES) individuals with type 1 diabetes have poorer outcomes than wealthier patients and part of this disparity comes from a lack of tools and knowledge about how to teach these patients on the technologies other patients take for granted. Therefore, this is a study designed to develop and test low literacy English/Spanish language teaching tools for patients with type 1 diabetes treated with varying types of technology in the Los Angeles County healthcare system. The aims are to:To reduce health disparities for underserved adults with diabetes on multiple daily injection (MDI) therapy using vials and syringes through the use of a simplified lower literacy, culturally and language appropriate approach to teach, implement and follow these individuals started on insulin pens and pumps/continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII); To show no increase in rates of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) or severe hypoglycemia when using CSII or pen therapy compared to baseline rates; To reduce time spent in hyper and hypoglycemic ranges, as well as glycemic variability, as measured by blinded continuous glucose monitoring (CGM); Reduce psychological distress due to diabetes and improve health-related quality of life, as measured by validated distress and quality of life scales. Secondary Aims include: Reduction in A1C levels with CSII/pen therapy compared to standard MDI treatment; and to perform a cost-analysis of the process of implementation to improve the generalizability of the model.
