Filter by:This research was conducted in a randomized controlled experimental way to determine the effect of motivational interviewing on hypoglycemia fear, caregiving, fatigue and self-compassion in parents of children with Type 1 diabetes. The research was conducted with the parents of the patients who came to the Pediatric Endocrinology polyclinic of the Van Training and Research Hospital of the University of Health Sciences between July 26, 2021 and August 19, 2022. The research was carried out in two stages. The first stage was carried out methodologically to determine the validity and reliability of the "Parental Version Of The Diabetes-Specific Self-Compassion Scale SCS-(Dp)" in Turkish. The sample of the study was composed of 102 parents and the data were collected with the "Descriptive Information Form" and the " Parental Version Of The Diabetes-Specific Self-Compassion Scale SCS-(Dp)". "Language", "scope" and "construct" validity analyzes were used to evaluate the validity of the scale. KMO and Bartlett's Tests and factor analysis were evaluated for construct validity. As a result of the reliability analysis the Cronbach Alpha coefficient of the scale was found to be 0.817. As a result it was seen that the two 19 item sub-dimensions of the Turkish form of the "Parental Version Of The Diabetes Specific Self-Compassion Scale SCS-(Dp)" were confirmed for the Turkish form in the same way. The sample of the second phase of the study consisted of 74 parents with Type 1 diabetes children, 37 of which were in the study group and 37 in the control group. İn the collection of data process, "Descriptive Information Form", "University of Virginia Parent Low Blood Sugar Scale", "BAKAS Care-Giving Impact Scale", "Fatigue Severity Scale", "Parental Version Of The Diabetes-Specific Self-Compassion Scale SCS-(Dp)" was used.
Epicardial fat thickness, carotid intima-media thickness, and augmentation index from arterial stiffness indicators are increased in children with T1DM compared to the healthy control group. These results support the idea that children with T1DM present significant changes in important subclinical indicators for the development of cardiovascular disease.
Little is known about how type 1 diabetes or coeliac disease develop in adults. Studies following children at risk of type 1 diabetes from birth have shown that the marker of type 1 diabetes autoimmunity (antibodies against the insulin producing cells in the pancreas (Glutamic Acid Decarboxylase Autoantibodies (GADA), Insulin Autoantibodies (IAA), Zinc Transporter 8 Autoantibodies (ZnT8), Anti-tyrosine phosphatase-like insulinoma antigen 2 (IA-2))) can develop many years before glucose levels are raised and diabetes is diagnosed. In adults, it is unclear when antibodies develop in relation to high blood glucose levels and the diagnosis of type 1 diabetes. Similarly in coeliac disease it is unclear to what degree Tissue transglutaminase autoantibodies (TTG) in adults proceed the development of clinically diagnosed disease. The investigators will use samples collected and stored in The Exeter 10,000 volunteer research bank (https://exetercrfnihr.org/about/exeter-10000/) and so no new sample collection is required. This includes ~8000 participants with no history of coeliac disease or diabetes at recruitment. The investigators wish to determine prevalence of autoantibodies in the background adult population split by the highest genetic risk for type 1 diabetes and separately coeliac disease compared to a control population with lower genetic risk for these conditions. The investigators will also evaluate the proportion of these identified cases progressing to clinically diagnosed disease. The aim of this study is to investigate evidence of autoimmunity prior to disease development and generate pilot data for the validity of screening based on genetic predisposition for type 1 diabetes and coeliac disease.
Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease characterized by the inability of the body to maintain normoglycemia. Treatment of diabetes relies mostly on diabetes self-management, requiring a large investment of time and energy on a daily basis. Psychological wellbeing, behavioral patterns and social context play a major role in diabetes self-management and glycemic control. Social isolation behavior (self-quarantining) may impact glycemic control by influencing daily routines, therapy adherence, physical activity, and self-measurement and eating behaviors. Therefore, a period of nationwide self-quarantine, such as during the lockdown issued during the COVID-19 outbreak in the Netherlands, may have a large effect on glycemic control in patients with diabetes. In this observational cross sectional study, we aim to assess the impact of long-term self-quarantine on glycemic control, diabetes self-management and distress in patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus. A specific subgroup of patients with T1D are those with complicated diabetes who have received a pancreas or islet transplantation and use immunosuppression, having multiple risk factors for severe COVID-19. The impact of lockdown strategies on mental and physical health is expectedly even greater in patients at even higher risk for severe COVID-19. We therefore additionally investigated differences in behavioral, mental and physical implications of a nationwide lockdown on patients with type 1 diabetes with and without islet or pancreas transplantation. Measurements will be performed during the lockdown period. Patients will be asked to perform a fingerprick HbA1c measurement once, sent back to the LUMC by mail. Data from continuous or flash glucose monitoring devices will be collected according to standard clinical practice. Furthermore, patients will be asked to fill out an online questionnaire once on diabetes self-management behavior, well-being and distress, along with questions about health status, level of education, medication use, employment, social situation and the impact of self-quarantine on daily routines. In this questionnaire, we ask patients to compare certain aspects of their life (e.g. anxiety, stress, weight, physical activity, glycemic control) at the time of the lockdown to before the lockdown. Data on demographics, type of diabetes, weight, BMI and HbA1c prior to the COVID-19 outbreak will be derived from the patient's electronic health file.
To evaluate Tandem Control-IQ compared with rtCGM and insulin pen respectively rtCGM and insulin pump treatment in children and adolescents regarding glucose control, sleep and health economics for 18 months.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether verapamil can transiently improve beta cell function in those who do or do not secrete proinsulin and little/no C-peptide.
To evaluate the efficacy of arginase inhibition on endothelial function in patients with type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes.
The goal of this research study is to evaluate a programme that is based on Compassionate Mind Training (CMT) over four-weeks. The programme intends to share information and strategies to reduce diabetes distress, self-criticism, and shame, and improve physical health in people who have Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.
The purpose of this study is to confirm the safety and effectiveness of the MiniMed 780G insulin pump used in combination with the DS5 CGM in type 1 diabetes adult and pediatric subjects in a home setting.
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess safety of and explore glycemic outcomes with Control-IQ technology 2.0 in adults, children and preschoolers with type 1 diabetes.
