Diabetes care practices and outcomes in 40.000 children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes from the SWEET registry during the COVID-19 pandemic
2023
Aims This study aimed to provide a global insight into initiatives in type 1 diabetes care driven by the COVID-19 pandemic and associations with glycemic outcomes. Methods An online questionnaire regarding diabetes care before and during the pandemic was sent to all centers (n=97, 66,985 youth with type 1 diabetes) active in the SWEET registry. Eighty-two responded, and 70 (42,798 youth with type 1 diabetes) had available data (from individuals with type 1 diabetes duration >3 months, aged ≤21 years) for all 4 years from 2018 to 2021. Statistical models were adjusted, among others, for technology use. Results Sixty-five centers provided telemedicine during COVID-19. Among those centers naiv…
Remission phase in children diagnosed with type 1 diabetes (T1D) in years 2012-2013 in Silesia, Poland – an observational study
2019
Background/Objective The study aimed to analyze the frequency of partial remission (PR) and its association with chosen clinical and laboratory factors among pediatric patients with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes (T1D). The long‐term effect of PR on chosen parameters was also investigated. Methods In 194 patients (95 girls) aged 8.1 ± 4.3 years, we analyzed data at T1D onset: glycemia, pH, C‐peptide, antibodies, weight, and concomitant autoimmune diseases. Anthropometric parameters, daily insulin requirement (DIR), and HbA1c 2 and 4 years after T1D diagnosis were also analyzed. We determined PR based on HbA1c and DIR measurements at least every 3 months. Results PR occurred in 59% of patie…
Cellular and tissue expression of DAPIT, a phylogenetically conserved peptide
2011
DAPIT (Diabetes Associated Protein in Insulin-sensitive Tissues) is a small, phylogenetically conserved, 58 amino acid peptide that was previously shown to be down-regulated at mRNA level in insulin-sensitive tissues of type 1 diabetes rats. In this study we characterize a custom made antibody against DAPIT and confirm the mitochondrial presence of DAPIT on cellular level. We also show that DAPIT is localized in lysosomes of HUVEC and HEK 293T cells. In addition, we describe the histological expression of DAPIT in several tissues of rat and man and show that it is highly expressed especially in cells with high aerobic metabolism and epithelial cells related to active transport of nutrients …
Pre-Exercise Blood Glucose Levels Determine the Amount of Orally Administered Carbohydrates during Physical Exercise in Individuals with Type 1 Diabe…
2019
The aim of the study was to assess the amount of orally administered carbohydrates needed to maintain euglycemia during moderate-intensity exercise in individuals with type 1 diabetes. Nine participants with type 1 diabetes (four women, age 32.1 ±
Reduction in insulin degludec dosing for multiple exercise sessions improves time spent in euglycaemia in people with type 1 diabetes: A randomized c…
2018
Aims To compare the time spent in specified glycaemic ranges in people with type 1 diabetes (T1D) during 5 consecutive days of moderate-intensity exercise while on either 100% or 75% of their usual insulin degludec (IDeg) dose. Materials and methods Nine participants with T1D (four women, mean age 32.1 ± 9.0 years, body mass index 25.5 ± 3.8 kg/m2 , glycated haemoglobin 55 ± 7 mmol/mol (7.2% ± 0.6%) on IDeg were enrolled in the trial. Three days before the first exercise period, participants were randomized to either 100% or 75% of their usual IDeg dose. Participants exercised on a cycle ergometer for 55 minutes at a moderate intensity for 5 consecutive days. After a 4-week wash-out period,…
Rapid-Acting Insulin Analogues in Basal-Bolus Regimens in Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus
2010
ABSTRACT Objective To compare rapid-acting insulin analogues with regular human insulin in terms of hemoglobin A1c, hypoglycemia, and insulin dose when used in a basal-bolus regimen in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus. Methods MEDLINE and congress proceedings were searched for randomized controlled trials comparing pran- dial insulins in a basal-bolus regimen in adults or children/ adolescents with type 1 diabetes. Studies in pregnancy, ob- servational studies, studies that compared premixed insulin or continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion/insulin pumps, and studies where the basal insulin was also changed were excluded. Only studies reporting baseline-endpoint change in insulin do…
Continuous glucose monitoring use and glucose variability in very young children with type 1 diabetes (VibRate): A multinational prospective observat…
2021
While data on the efficacy and safety of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) exist across a broad age spectrum, it is limited in very young children with type 1 diabetes (T1D). We aimed to assess real-world data in this high-risk population, focusing on glycemic variability and metrics beyond HbA1c. A 12-month multi-national, prospective, observational, registry-based cohort study in children with T1D aged 1-7 years compared glucose control using real-time CGM and using fingerstick blood glucose monitoring (BGM) alone. The prespecified primary endpoint was a difference in coefficient of variation (CV) between the CGM users and BGM-only cohort. Among 227 individuals using insulin pumps (42% …
Glycemic Outcome Associated With Insulin Pump and Glucose Sensor Use in Children and Adolescents With Type 1 Diabetes. Data From the International Pe…
2021
OBJECTIVE Insulin delivery methods, glucose-monitoring modalities, and related outcomes were examined in a large, international, diverse cohort of children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes from the Better Control in Pediatric and Adolescent Diabetes: Working to Create Centers of Reference (SWEET) -Registry. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Participants with type 1 diabetes of >= 1 year, aged <= 18 years, and who had documented pump or sensor usage during the period August 2017-July 2019 were stratified into four categories: injections-no sensor (referent); injections + sensor; pump-no sensor; and pump + sensor. HbA(1c) and proportion of patients with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) or severe hyp…
Patients with type 1 diabetes transition from pediatric to adult care in Poland—an example from Silesia
2014
Transition from pediatric to the adult care system is an important issue for diabetes management. The objective was to evaluate the transition of young adults with type 1 diabetes (T1DM) from pediatric to adult diabetes care. Questionnaires were sent to all T1DM patients (166), who left pediatric diabetes care in Katowice, Poland (2003–2007). Analyzed parameters included: date of first visit and visit frequency in adult care, HbA1c (mean and final at pediatric care, HbA1c_M and F respectively, reported in questionnaire – HbA1c_Q), and history of acute complications. 132(82.5 %) responses were received. 96(73 %) patients undertook their first visit at adult clinic ≤3 months after finishing p…
Fungal Dysbiosis and Intestinal Inflammation in Children With Beta-Cell Autoimmunity
2020
Although gut bacterial dysbiosis is recognized as a regulator of beta-cell autoimmunity, no data is available on fungal dysbiosis in the children at the risk of type 1 diabetes (T1D). We hypothesized that the co-occurrence of fungal and bacterial dysbiosis contributes to the intestinal inflammation and autoimmune destruction of insulin-producing beta-cells in T1D. Fecal and blood samples were collected from 26 children tested positive for at least one diabetes-associated autoantibody (IAA, GADA, IA-2A or ICA) and matched autoantibody-negative children with HLA-conferred susceptibility to T1D (matched for HLA-DQB1 haplotype, age, gender and early childhood nutrition). Bacterial 16S and funga…
