In a previous study investigating the effects of intermittent fasting, our research group found evidence for higher glucose excursions and a reduced insulin response after a 36 hour fasting period as compared to an overnight fasting period in healthy subjects. The aim of this research project is to investigate the effect of short and midterm fasting (12 hours versus 36 hours) on glucose metabolism, glucose regulatory hormones, insulin secretion and resting energy expenditure in healthy and obese people as well as in patients with type 2 diabetes.
This study is a case-control study comparing the skin barrier between 50 T1D patients with healthy controls in 3 age-strata including both pediatric and adult patients.
Hypothesize that co-managing pregnant type 1 diabetics with telemedicine will have at least equivalent outcomes to those managed with standard care. Comparison of outcomes between pregnant type 1 diabetics being co-managed with telemedicine compared to those receiving conventional care will help identify unanswered clinical questions and areas for improvement in regard to standards of care for pregnant type 1 diabetics. The data generated from this analysis will help determine whether telemedicine can be an effective additional means of care for pregnant type 1 diabetic patients.
The DreaMed Advisor Pro, is a software which automatically analyses treatment information, learns patient's needs and accordingly suggests adjustments in insulin dosing (FDA approved decision support system). The Advisor Pro uses information gathered from glucose monitoring (sensor readings or capillary blood glucose measurements), insulin dosing and meal data during daily routine home care. Following a 5 minute data collection and analysis, the algorithm learns and suggests pump-setting changes for optimization of glucose control. The algorithm is designed as an advisory tool for health care professionals and has three main components: First, data analysis report - a statistical analysis of the insulin pump and sensor data: insulin delivery, bolus-calculator rate of use, sensor glucose variables, hypoglycemic and hyperglycemic patterns. Second, recommendations, alert messages based on aforementioned data for example "pay attention- you skipped boluses", basal/bolus ratio is too high, bolus delivery compliance, glucose target recommendations and more. Third, a recommendation for new insulin pump settings: including basal intervals and rate, different carbohydrate ratio according to time of day, correction factor and insulin sensitivity time. The Advisor Pro can be used to optimize insulin pump setting during clinical visits, in-between visits or as part of virtual (telemedicine) visit. The objective of the proposed study is to evaluate the use of Advisor Pro by Health Care Providers for regular clinical visits and in between visits titration for adjustment of insulin pump settings. The study design is an open label, prospective, observational study that will include up to 100 participants with Type 1 Diabetes using insulin pumps and monitoring glucose levels by continuous glucose monitoring including flash glucose monitoring.
Randomised controlled trial to contribute to the evidence base for the optimal initial insulin profile for adults with type 1 diabetes commencing insulin pump therapy.
We propose conducting a pilot randomized study to assess the feasibility of using the automated insulin dose adjustment (AIDA) system to assist the parents of children with Type 1 Diabetes to make insulin dose adjustments between visits with their diabetes provider. Study results will be used to inform a larger RCT with an anticipated primary outcome of change in HbA1c in patients managed with either standard care (changes in therapy settings effected at regularly scheduled patients visits) or AIDA guided care.
A Cluster-controlled Intervention Trial regarding Prevention of Dermatological Complications towards use of Continuous glucose monitoring and insulin pumps in pediatric patients with Type 1 Diabetes. The patients will be followed prospectively with visits every 3rd month for the first year of initiation of device. Besides a standardized treatment plan if dermatological complications evolve, will be used.
Impaired hypoglycemia awareness, a significant problem for children with type 1 diabetes, is defined as neurogenic symptom response before autonomic response to hypoglycemia. Avoiding hypoglycemia appears to restore hypoglycemia awareness. Investigators have previously demonstrated in a retrospective study that Flash Glucose Monitoring system decreased the risk of severe hypoglycemia in type 1 diabetic children and adolescents, even though Flash Glucose Monitoring system, unlike Continuous Glucose Monitoring system, does not provide glucose alerts. Continuous Glucose Monitoring system, by providing real-time data with alarms, could benefit to subjects still experiencing severe hypoglycemia with Flash Glucose Monitoring system. Besides, in adults, Continuous Glucose Monitoring system reduced more effectively impaired hypoglycemia awareness compared to Flash Glucose Monitoring system. In that context, investigators would like to assess the impact of Continuous Glucose Monitoring system instead of Flash Glucose Monitoring system on hypoglycemia in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes.
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.
