Filter by:Regular physical activity is an important part of diabetes management in adolescents with type 1 diabetes (T1D). Increased physical activity has several beneficial effects such as improved lipid profile, insulin sensitivity and quality of life. In addition, a reduced HbA1c is often seen in association to increased physical activity. However, the effect on glycemic control and the acute glycemic response seems to differs between different types of exercise. This issue is poorly studied in adolescents with T1D and the mechanism behind this is not fully understood. The primary aim of this study was to compare the acute effects on glycemia of resistance and two aerobic continuous and intermittent exercise bouts in adolescents with type 1 diabetes. Secondarily, the investigators want to compare the different exercise according to hormonal changes and expression of mRNA in muscle. At a baseline visit the participants was tested for maximal oxygen consumption (pVO2peak) and maximal strength (1-RM). The study participants then performed three exercise bouts and one control session (resting), each on 45 minutes, in a randomized order. Measurement was performed during and after the exercise.
DiaBetter Together is a strengths-based peer support intervention delivered to young adults (age 17-25) by trained Peer Mentors (age 20-35) during the transition between pediatric and adult diabetes care. The aims of this proposed randomized controlled trial are to evaluate the impact of the intervention on glycemic control (primary), time to first adult care visit, adherence, and psychosocial outcomes (secondary) in young adults with T1D after 12 months.
The primary aim of this pilot randomized controlled trial is to determine if the integration of a Community Health Worker (CHW) into the healthcare team of children with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes is associated with an improvement in diabetes control. The secondary objectives are to determine if utilization of CHWs is also associated with improvements in psychosocial outcomes, healthcare utilization, and decreased costs.
This is a phase II prospective, interventional, open-labeled, proof-of-concept study. 2 years per participant, 2 years 6 months in total Total n=6 The primary objective is to assess the safety of human pancreatic islet transplantation into the ACE of participants with T1D. Safety analyses will involve examination of the incidence, severity, and type of treatment emergent AEs reported, and changes in vital signs, ophthalmic status and laboratory test results from baseline (Day 0 pre-transplantation) to specified time points throughout the study.
Team Clinic is a new care approach for middle and high school aged patients living with T1D and their families. This study is a 15-month randomized control trial (RCT) that consists of Virtual Team Clinic Care appointments (primarily telemedicine, and in-person as necessary) and Virtual Team Clinic group appointments with a multidisciplinary diabetes care team. Assignment into 1 of 4 intervention groups Team Clinic Care vs. Standard Care which consist of either Virtual Team Clinic Group or no group. Groups: 1. Standard Care - No Group 2. Standard Care - Virtual Team Clinic Group 3. Team Clinic Care - No Group 4. Team Clinic Care - Virtual Team Clinic Group Virtual Team Clinic group sessions will be facilitated by clinical care team (e.g., Registered Dietician, Social Worker, Registered Nurse, etc.) - Patients and parents will attend their own online session
The investigators aim to further the understanding of environmental factors that underlie the development of Type 1 diabetes (T1D) and the post-onset disease trajectory. 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, the investigators propose to examine the impact of dysbiosis on the endogenous innate inflammatory state that potentiates T1D progression. The investigators hypothesize that probiotic-induced alterations in the intestinal microbiota may favorably alter the post-onset disease state.
For many people living with type 1 diabetes it is a challenge to achieve good glucose control. Barely 20% reaches the goal level and many people experience self-care as complex, demanding and stressful. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of a stress-management program on glucose control, self-care and psychosocial factors. The program is based on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), a specific form of Cognitive behavior therapy (CBT). A total of 70 adult patients with type 1 diabetes from Ersta hospital will be recruited. Half of them will receive the intervention and the other half will continue with their regular diabetes care. A licensed psychologist specialised in CBT and a diabetes specialist nurse will be leading the intervention that is given in a group format. The program consists of seven 2-hour sessions given over 14 weeks. Glucose control, self care and stress will be measured at inclusion, after session four and seven, at six , 12 and 24 months and finally after 5 years
The purpose of the study is to use a novel treatment approach, the artificial pancreas, after diagnosis of type 1 diabetes (T1D) to improve glucose control with the anticipated improvements of residual C-peptide secretion. This is an open-label, multicentre, single-period, randomised, parallel group design study. It is expected that a total of up to 190 subjects (aiming for 96 randomised subjects) will be recruited within ten working days of diagnosis of type 1 diabetes through paediatric diabetes centres in the UK. Half of the participants aged 10 to 16.9 years will be treated by conventional insulin injections and the other half by the artificial pancreas (closed loop insulin delivery system). Each treatment will last 24 months. All participants completing the 24 month study period will be invited to continue in an optional extension phase with the treatment allocated at randomisation for a further 24 months. Subjects in the intervention group will receive additional training on components of the artificial pancreas, i.e. insulin pump and continuous glucose monitoring (CGM), prior to starting closed loop insulin delivery. Subjects in the control intervention group will continue with standard therapy, i.e. multiple daily injection therapy. The study includes up to 14 visits and 1 telephone/email contact for subjects completing the study. After run-in and randomisation, visits will be conducted every 3 months in both arms. Beta-cell function will be assessed by serial measurement of C-peptide in response to a standardised mixed meal tolerance test (MMTT). MMTTs will be conducted at baseline, 6-,12- and 24 months post diagnosis. The primary outcome is the between group difference in the area under the stimulated C-peptide curve (AUC) of the MMTT at 12 month post diagnosis. Secondary outcomes include between group differences in stimulated C-peptide AUC over 24 months, differences in glycaemic control as assessed by HbA1c, time spent in glucose target range, glucose variability, hypo- and hyperglycaemia as recorded by periodically applied CGM, as well as insulin requirements and change in bodyweight. Additionally, cognitive, emotional and behavioural characteristics of participating subjects and parents will be assessed, and a cost utility analysis on the benefits of closed loop insulin delivery will be performed. Safety evaluation comprises assessment of the frequency of severe hypoglycaemic episodes, diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and number, nature and severity of other adverse events.
The main goal is to perform a cost-utility analysis to compare islet cell transplantation versus best medical treatment (defined as Sensor augmented pump therapy) for patients with brittle type1 diabetes.
To evaluate the effect of Gluten Free Diet (GFD) on beta-cell function and glucose metabolism in subjects with one or several islet autoantibodies without and with dysglycemia at baseline. Additionally, all subjects will be given treatment with Vitamin D, omega fatty acids and probiotics. Subjects will be randomized to GFD or normal diet during 18 months. Beta cell function will be evaluated at baseline, and during follow-up by glucose tolerance tests.
