Filter by:Osteopenia and osteoporosis, particularly related to insulinopenia, are common in type 1 diabetes and increase the risk of fractures. Musculoskeletal disorders of the upper limb are a common complication of type 1 diabetes. However, there is no official recommendation for screening for musculoskeletal disorders in France.
A virtual group of teens with type 1 diabetes, led by young adults with type 1 diabetes, will play active videogames and discuss activity and health. This study will evaluate the program for feasibility and user satisfaction.
For last decade, the innovation of mobile health platform has brought new opportunities for disease management. Previous studies have shown that health management programs based on mobile platforms for patients with diabetes can improve patients' glucose control, self-management ability and quality of life. Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) due to its characteristics needs long-term linkage care throughout the lifespan cycle of patients. Therefore, this study intends to construct a prospective and open T1DM cohort based on mobile application and platform, to deliver home-community-hospital joint management for patients, and to provide follow-up online or offline every 3 months lasting for 10 years. Mainly, the objective of this study is to observe the blood glucose control outcome of T1DM patients. Secondly, the control of comprehensive metabolic indicators such as blood pressure and blood lipid, occurrence and progression of acute and chronic complications, and psychosocial status were included as well, expecting to provide scientific evidence for continuously improving the quality of T1DM management.
Carbohydrates are the nutrient in the diet with the greatest impact on blood glucose. Inadequate carbohydrate counts are associated with higher A1c and greater variations in postprandial blood glucose. Clinical guidelines for the nutritional treatment of diabetes recommend that patients with DM1 learn carbohydrate counting or some similar systematic strategy that allows for better metabolic control. However, despite the recommendations, this is still not a reality for most healthcare services treating individuals diagnosed with DM1.
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is caused by the destruction of insulin-producing cells by effector T cells (Teffs), due to a deficiency of regulatory T cells (Tregs). Ciclosporin effectively blocks the Teffs and controls diabetes, but cannot be considered as a long-term treatment. Low-dose interleukin-2 (ld IL-2) activates and expands Tregs in humans. Hence, Ld IL-2 in patients in whom the autoimmune process was blocked early by a short treatment (2 months) of cyclosporine should restore immune homeostasis and maintain some insulin production over the long term.
Aim: Dietary carbohydrate is the predominant macronutrient affecting postprandial blood glucose excursions, dietary fat and protein can also significantly impact the postprandial glycemic profile. The aim of this study is to compare the impact of additional dose of extended insulin bolus; using Pankowsko algorithm (PA) to usual standard carbohydrate counting (CC) on postprandial glucose excursions for high fat /high energy density mixed meal for 12 hours. Methods: In this single-center, non-blinded, randomized, crossover study a high fat, high energy density test meal containing 80 gram carbohydrate (34%), 70 gram fat (66%) and 35 g protein (14%) was given using standard carbohydrate counting (CC) on the first test day and PA was used for the second test day for the same meal. Two methods were compared on postprandial early (0-120 min), late (120-720 min) and total (0-720 min) glucose response in 20 patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), aged 9-18 years on continuous subcutan insulin infusion (CSII) therapy using continuous glucose monitoring system (CGMS).
The purpose of this study is to test the acceptability and effectiveness of an individualized eating strategy as part of diabetes self-management to improve glycemic levels among youth with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and suboptimal glycemic management. Investigators will assess participant acceptability of and adherence to a 6-month individualized eating strategy ("MyPlan") characterized by approximate day-to-day consistency in the frequency and timing of meals and snacks and distribution of carbohydrate throughout the day. Within-individual change in glycemic levels between baseline and 6-months of the study will also be compared. The goal of the study is to inform the design of a future randomized clinical trial to test the addition of the MyPlan eating strategy to ongoing diabetes clinical care among youth with T1D.
The objective of this proposal is to demonstrate a viable, functionally integrated multivariable artificial pancreas (mvAP) that will address meal, physical activity (PA) and acute psychological stress (APS) challenges without any manual inputs to better regulate glucose levels of people with diabetes. Acute psychological stress and many other forms of PA besides planned exercise can affect blood glucose levels and cause challenges to maintaining euglycemia for people with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). Various PA and APS affect the metabolism and sensitivity to insulin in different ways. Hence, their types, intensities and durations, and their individual and concurrent presence must be detected in order to determine the optimal insulin administration. The mvAP approach provides a well-integrated and user-friendly technology with minimal burden on the user and mitigates the effects of unexpected PA and APS inducements. Twenty subjects with type 1 diabetes (ages 18-60) who use insulin pumps enrolled in this study. The study will take place at the UIC-College of Nursing Diabetes and Exercise Laboratory. The protocol will include 1 screening visit and 5 sessions at the laboratory. The primary activities at each meeting will include: (1) screening; (2) measurement of peak exercise capacity; (3) estimation of maximal strength from submaximal strength tests; (4) Trier Social Stress Test; (5) submaximal bouts of aerobic and resistance exercise, and activities of daily living with and without stress (e.g., mental calculations, video games). These activities will be included visit 3, 4 and 5 as appropriate. In addition, subjects will perform activities at home include: housekeeping chores, stationary bike (if available); treadmill (if available); walking; and light weights (if available). Periodically, the research assistant will call the subject during these times and ask them to perform stress-inducing activities while performing the activity. The stress inducing activities will include mental challenges such as a mathematical computation while performing the activity. The subjects will be called at home 3-5 times during the study. The fully automated algorithm will be tested in a home setting, however, the methodology will be developed and approved for testing later in the study.
National multi-center non-interventional case-control cohort study with collection of biological samples to characterize the autoimmune T and B lymphocytes involved in the development of type 1 diabetes.
Despite the promising data emanating from trials investigating the effectiveness of advanced hybrid closed loop (AHCL) insulin delivery systems in managing glycaemia in those with type 1 diabetes (T1D), we currently know little about their efficacy in optimising glycaemia when physical activity is factored into the equation. With the introduction of new AHCL systems that have novel technological features, we are left with important questions of how to optimise their use around physical exercise to not only minimise dysglycaemia, but also encourage individuals with T1D to lead a physically active lifestyle for the associated wider health benefits. This will be a three-period, randomised, cross-over study with a single-hormone (insulin) AHCL system that compares the efficacy of three insulin management strategies: (i) unannounced exercise and a full dose of meal-time insulin 90-minutes prior to commencement, (ii) a 25% reduced dose of meal-time insulin with exercise announcement 90-minutes prior to commencement and (iii) a 25% dose reduction in meal-time insulin with exercise announcement 45-minutes prior to commencement, in optimising TIR around dynamic physical exercise in adults with T1D.
