Science Intravenous insulin therapy

Abstract In Qatar Type 1 Diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is one of the most prevalent disorders. This study aimed to explore the gut microbiome’s relation to the continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) therapy, dietary habits, and the Hemoglobin A1c(HbA1c)e A1c(HbA1c) level in the pediatric T1DM subjects in Qatar. We recruited 28 T1DM subjects with an average […]

Main idea: Diabetes self-management education plays a key role in better compliance with the treatment. Client-centered multidisciplinary centers in T1DM education are essential so that they be applicable for all T1DM patients irrespective of the type of insulin delivery they used. Abstract Aims: The aims of this study were to evaluate any differences in the quality of […]

Main idea: Continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion might be associated with better glycemic control and better effect for children’s growth development. No higher risks of long-term complications and delayed pubertal development were observed in continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion. The findings provided evidence for a better therapy regimen for T1D in children, nevertheless, they need to be validated […]

Main idea: Pre-gestational BMI and weight gain may play a role in determining CHO/IR during pregnancy in women with type 1 diabetes under pump treatment. Abstract The primary aim of this study was to assess insulin requirements and carbohydrate to insulin ratio (CHO/IR) in normal weight, overweight, and obese pregnant women with type 1 diabetes across […]

Abstract Physical activity (PA) is important for individuals living with type 1 diabetes (T1D) due to its various health benefits. Nonetheless, maintaining adequate glycemic control around PA remains a challenge for many individuals living with T1D because of the difficulty in properly managing circulating insulin levels during PA. Although the most common problem is the […]

Main idea: Use of this automated insulin delivery system in older adults improved glycemic control with high scores in ease of use, trust, and usability. Participants reported an improvement in diabetes distress with automated insulin delivery use. There were no significant changes in sleep. Abstract Background: Older adults with type 1 diabetes (≥65 years) are often under-represented […]

Main idea: This study presents a low-cost prototype as a candidate to be used by type 1 diabetic patients in Brazil and developing countries, especially in the context of public health. Abstract Considering that infusion devices are safety-critical systems, the main goal of this paper is to evaluate the infusion accuracy and precision of a low-cost […]
