Continuous subcutaneous glucose monitoring has been tested in type 1 diabetes (T1D). Since in critically ill patients vascular access is granted vascular microdialysis may be preferential. To test this hypothesis comparative accuracy data for microdialysis applied for peripheral venous and subcutaneous glucose monitoring was obtained in experiments in T1D patients. Twelve T1D patients were investigated for up to 30h. Extracorporeal vascular (MDv) and subcutaneous microdialysis (MDs) was performed. Microdialysis samples were collected in 15-60min intervals, analyzed for glucose and calibrated to reference. MDv and MDs glucose levels were compared against reference. Median absolute relative difference was 14.0 (5.0; 28.0)% (MDv) and 9.2 (4.4; 18.4)% (MDs). Clarke Error Grid analysis showed that 100% (MDv) and 98.8% (MDv) were within zones A and B. Extracorporeal vascular and standard subcutaneous microdialysis indicated similar performance in T1D. We suggest microdialysis as a versatile technology for metabolite monitoring in subcutaneous tissue and whole blood. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Introduction: We aimed to characterise and compare individuals diagnosed with type 1 diabetes (T1D), latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA) and type 2 diabetes (T2D), in a real-world setting., Methods: Anthropometric and clinical data from 36 959 people with diabetes diagnosed at age 30-70 years enrolled in the prospective diabetes patients follow-up (DPV) registry from 1995 to 2022 were analysed cross-sectionally at diagnosis and follow-up (≥6 months after diagnosis). LADA was defined as clinical diagnosis of T2D, positivity of ≥1 islet autoantibody and an insulin-free interval of ≥6 months upon diabetes diagnosis., Results: At diagnosis, age, body mass index, waist circumference, C-peptide and HbA1c in people with LADA (n = 747) fell in between individuals with T1D (n = 940) and T2D (n = 35 272) (all p-values < 0.01). At follow-up, after adjusting for age, sex and diabetes duration, the prevalence of dyslipidemia and hypertension was the highest in people with LADA (90.6%, 77.7%) compared to people with T2D (81.8%, 60.4%) and T1D (75.7%, 39.7%) (p < 0.01). The prevalence of diabetic kidney disease (DKD) was higher in LADA (44.2%), than in T1D (19.9%) (p < 0.01). The prevalence of peripheral neuropathy was higher in individuals with LADA (55.1%) than in T2D (43.9%) and T1D (42.1%) (p < 0.05). Coverage of treatment for hypertension and dyslipidemia were 22.4% and 15.0% in T1D, 63.0% and 36.6% in LADA and 29.4% and 18.2% in T2D., Conclusion: People with LADA had a higher prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors (dyslipidemia, hypertension) and cardiovascular complications (DKD and peripheral neuropathy), suggesting that people with LADA are at need for improved recognition and care., (© 2024 The Author(s).

With increasing prevalence of obesity and cardiovascular diseases, there is a growing interest in the use of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) as an adjunct therapy in type 1 diabetes (T1D). The GLP-1RAs are currently not approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of T1D in the absence of randomized controlled trials documenting efficacy and safety of these agents in this population. The Diabetes Technology Society convened a series of three consensus meetings of clinicians and researchers with expertise in diabetes technology, GLP-1RA therapy, and T1D management. The project was aimed at synthesizing current literature and providing conclusions on the use of GLP-1RA therapy as an adjunct to automated insulin delivery (AID) systems in adults with T1D. The expert panel members met virtually three times on January 17, 2024, and April 24, 2024, and August 14, 2024, to discuss topics ranging from physiology and outcomes of GLP-1RAs in T1D to limitations of current sensors, algorithms, and insulin for AID systems. The panelists also identified research gaps and future directions for research. The panelists voted to in favor of 31 recommendations. This report presents the consensus opinions of the participants that, in adults with T1D using AID systems, GLP-1RAs have the potential to (1) provide effective adjunct therapy and (2) improve glycemic and metabolic outcomes without increasing the risk of severe hypoglycemia or diabetic ketoacidosis., Competing Interests: Declaration of Conflicting InterestsThe author(s) declared the following potential conflicts of interest with respect to the research, authorship, and/or publication of this article: VNS received research support from Novo Nordisk, Insulet, and Tandem Diabetes Care and received honoraria from LifeScan for advisory board attendance and from Dexcom, Embecta, and Insulet for speaking arrangements.

Aims/hypothesis: Glycaemic control and clinical outcomes in diabetes are improved by continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII). Atmospheric pressure changes during flights may affect insulin delivery from pumps and cause unintended metabolic consequences, including hypoglycaemia, in people with type 1 diabetes. The present report evaluates both hypobaric flight simulation and real-world data in pilots using insulin pumps while flying., Methods: In the flight simulation part of this study, an in vitro study of insulin pumps was conducted in a hypobaric chamber, de-pressurised to 550 mmHg to mimic the atmospheric pressure changes in airliner cabins during commercial flights. Insulin delivery rates and bubble formation were recorded for standard flight protocol. Insulin infusion sets, without pumps, were tested in a simulated rapid decompression scenario. The real-world observational study was a 7.5-year retrospective cohort study in which pre- and in-flight self-monitored blood glucose (SMBG) values were monitored in pilots with insulin-treated diabetes. Commercial and private pilots granted a medical certificate to fly within the European Union Aviation Safety Agency approved protocol and receiving insulin either by pump or multiple daily injections (MDI) were included., Results: In the flight simulation study, full cartridges over-delivered 0.60 U of insulin during a 20 min ascent and under-delivered by 0.51 U during descent compared with ground-level performance. During emergency rapid decompression, 5.6 U of excess insulin was delivered. In the real-world study, seven pilots using CSII recorded 4656 SMBG values during 2345 h of flying across 1081 flights. Only 33 (0.7%) values were outside an acceptable safe range (5.0-15.0 mmol/l [90-270 mg/dl]). No clinically significant fall in the median SMBG concentration was observed after aircraft ascent and no in-flight SMBG values were within the hypoglycaemic range (<4.0 mmol/l [<72 mg/dl]). Compared with pilots receiving MDI therapy, pilots using CSII recorded more SMBG values within the acceptable range (99.3% vs 97.5%), fewer values in the low red range (0.02% vs 0.1%), fewer in-flight out-of-range values (0.2% vs 1.3%) and maintained stricter glycaemic control during flight., Conclusions/interpretation: Ambient pressure reduction during simulated flights results in bubble formation and expansion within insulin cartridges. This causes unintended delivery of small insulin doses independent of pre-determined delivery rates and represents the maximum amount of insulin that could be delivered and retracted. However, in vivo, pilots using CSII in-flight did not experience a fall in blood glucose or episodes of hypoglycaemia during these atmospheric pressure changes and the use of insulin pumps can be endorsed in view of their clinical benefits., (© 2024.

Background: Individuals with maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) are often misdiagnosed as type 1 or type 2 diabetes and receive inappropriate care. We aimed to investigate the characteristics and treatment of all MODY types in a multicenter, real-world setting., Methods: Individuals with MODY from the diabetes prospective follow-up (DPV) registry were studied. We compared clinical parameters during the first year of diabetes and the most recent treatment year after MODY diagnosis., Results: A total of 1640 individuals were identified with GCK-MODY (n = 941) and HNF1A-MODY (n = 417) as the most frequent types. Among these, 912 individuals were available with information during the first and the most recent treatment year (median duration of follow-up: 4.2 years [2.6-6.6]). Positive beta cell autoantibodies were present in 20.6% (15.2% IAA). Median age at diagnosis ranged from 9.9 years in GCK-MODY (Q1-Q3: 6.2-13.1 years) and INS-MODY (2.7-13.7 years) to 14.3 years (5.0-17.1) in KCNJ11-MODY. Frequency of oral antidiabetic agents (OAD) use increased and insulin decreased in HNF4A-MODY (OAD: 18% to 39%, insulin: 34% to 23%) and in HNF1A-MODY (OAD: 18% to 31%, insulin: 35% to 25%). ABCC8-MODY was characterized by a decrement in nonpharmacological treatment (26% to 16%) and "insulin only" treatment (53% to 42%), while the proportion of individuals treated with OAD but no insulin increased from 0% to 21%., Conclusions: Our results indicate that some teams caring for individuals with MODY are hesitant with regard to current recommendations. Registries are an essential source of information and provide a basis for discussing treatment guidelines for MODY., (© 2024 The Author(s).

Background: Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) can provide a comprehensive assessment of glycaemic control. This exploratory analysis of the ONWARDS 1 trial assessed CGM-based metrics and CGM-derived hypoglycaemia duration in insulin-naive individuals with type 2 diabetes treated with subcutaneous once-weekly insulin icodec (icodec) versus once-daily insulin glargine U100 (glargine U100)., Methods: ONWARDS 1 was a 78-week (52-week main treatment phase and a 26-week treatment extension phase plus a 5-week follow-up), randomised, open-label, treat-to-target, phase 3a trial done at 143 sites (outpatient clinics and hospital departments) across 12 countries. Adults (aged ≥18 years) with type 2 diabetes (HbA 1c : 7·0-11·0%) who had not previously received insulin were randomly assigned (1:1) via an interactive web-response system to once-weekly icodec or once-daily glargine U100. Double-masked CGM data were collected during treatment initiation (weeks 0-4), midtrial (weeks 22-26), end of main phase (weeks 48-52), end of extension phase (weeks 74-78), and follow-up (weeks 78-83). Secondary and exploratory outcomes were CGM-based metrics, including the mean percentages of time in glycaemic range (TIR; sensor glucose 3·9-10·0 mmol/L [70-180 mg/dL]), time in tight range (TITR; 3·9-7·8 mmol/L [70-140 mg/dL]), time above range (TAR; >10·0 mmol/L [>180 mg/dL]), and time below range (TBR; <3·9 mmol/L [<70 mg/dL] and <3·0 mmol/L [<54 mg/dL]), and CGM-derived hypoglycaemic episode durations (episodes defined by sensor glucose <3·9 mmol/L [<70 mg/dL for ≥15 consecutive minutes]). Analyses were done in the full analysis set (all randomly assigned participants). The ONWARDS 1 trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04460885, and is complete., Findings: Participants were enrolled and randomly assigned in ONWARDS 1 between Nov 25, 2020, and Dec 1, 2022 (n=492 in each treatment group). During treatment initiation, we observed no statistically significant differences in the mean percentages of TIR, TITR, TAR, and TBR with icodec versus glargine U100. During the midtrial, end of main phase, and end of extension phase periods, the mean percentages of TIR and TITR were statistically significantly greater and the mean percentages of TAR statistically significantly lower with icodec versus glargine U100. The mean percentages of TIR met the internationally recommended CGM target (>70%) with icodec but not with glargine U100 during the three periods. TBR (<3·9 mmol/L [<70 mg/dL] and <3·0 mmol/L [<54 mg/dL]) was low and below recommended targets (<4% and <1%, respectively) across all study periods in both treatment groups, with no statistically significant differences between treatment groups for the lower threshold (<3·0 mmol/L [<54 mg/dL]). During the follow-up period, mean percentages of TIR, TITR, TAR, and TBR did not statistically significantly differ with icodec versus glargine U100. The duration of overall hypoglycaemic episodes was similar between treatment groups throughout the trial (median duration ≤35 min)., Interpretation: These CGM data support the long-term efficacy and safety of icodec versus glargine U100 during treatment and indicated no increase in the duration of individual hypoglycaemic episodes with icodec versus glargine U100 in insulin-naive individuals with type 2 diabetes., Funding: Novo Nordisk., Competing Interests: Declaration of interests RMB has received research support, consultant fees, or has served on advisory panels for Abbott Diabetes Care, Ascensia Diabetes Care, Bigfoot Biomedical, CeQur, Dexcom, Eli Lilly, Embecta, Hygieia, Insulet, Medtronic, Novo Nordisk, Onduo, Roche Diabetes Care, Sanofi, Tandem Diabetes Care, United Healthcare, Vertex Pharmaceuticals, and Zealand Pharma.

Introduction: An error grid compares measured versus reference glucose concentrations to assign clinical risk values to observed errors. Widely used error grids for blood glucose monitors (BGMs) have limited value because they do not also reflect clinical accuracy of continuous glucose monitors (CGMs)., Methods: Diabetes Technology Society (DTS) convened 89 international experts in glucose monitoring to (1) smooth the borders of the Surveillance Error Grid (SEG) zones and create a user-friendly tool-the DTS Error Grid; (2) define five risk zones of clinical point accuracy (A-E) to be identical for BGMs and CGMs; (3) determine a relationship between DTS Error Grid percent in Zone A and mean absolute relative difference (MARD) from analyzing 22 BGM and nine CGM accuracy studies; and (4) create trend risk categories (1-5) for CGM trend accuracy., Results: The DTS Error Grid for point accuracy contains five risk zones (A-E) with straight-line borders that can be applied to both BGM and CGM accuracy data. In a data set combining point accuracy data from 18 BGMs, 2.6% of total data pairs equally moved from Zones A to B and vice versa (SEG compared with DTS Error Grid). For every 1% increase in percent data in Zone A, the MARD decreased by approximately 0.33%. We also created a DTS Trend Accuracy Matrix with five trend risk categories (1-5) for CGM-reported trend indicators compared with reference trends calculated from reference glucose., Conclusion: The DTS Error Grid combines contemporary clinician input regarding clinical point accuracy for BGMs and CGMs. The DTS Trend Accuracy Matrix assesses accuracy of CGM trend indicators., Competing Interests: Declaration of Conflicting InterestsThe author(s) declared the following potential conflicts of interest with respect to the research, authorship, and/or publication of this article: D.C.K. is a consultant for Afon, Lifecare, Novo, Samsung, embecta, Glucotrack, SynchNeuro, and Thirdwayv.

Hybrid closed-loop (HCL) systems remain underexplored within aviation, and as atmospheric pressure changes can independently affect insulin pumps and continuous glucose monitoring readings, this preliminary study assessed the feasibility of HCL safety evaluation, in both fasting and post-prandial states, by using hypobaric chamber to simulate flights. Participants with type 1 diabetes and on HCL were studied: Medtronic Guardian 4-Medtronic 780G-SmartGuard ( n = 4), Dexcom G6-Omnipod DASH-Android APS ( n = 1), and Dexcom G6-Ypsomed Pump-CamAPS ( n = 1). Flight cabin pressures of 550 mmHg and 750 mmHg were simulated in a hypobaric chamber. Seven-hundred-50 glucose measurements were taken, with glucose levels demonstrating a stable decline to 4 mmol/L during fasting. To maintain a tight fasting and post-prandial glucose range across the different pressure settings, the HCL administered insulin as expected. While not demonstrating any apparent issues, repeating flight simulation protocol with other systems, examining longer flights, and undertaking larger, powered randomised controlled trials can confirm their safety in aviation.

Objective: The objective was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ultra-rapid-acting insulin with the Boost and Ease-off features of the Cambridge hybrid closed-loop system., Methods: A secondary analysis of Boost and Ease-off from two double-blind, randomized, crossover hybrid closed-loop studies comparing (1) Fiasp to insulin aspart (n = 25), and (2) Lyumjev to insulin lispro (n = 26) was carried out. Mean glucose on initialization of Boost and Ease-off, change in glucose 60 and 120 minutes after initialization, duration and frequency of use, mean glucose, and time in, above, and below target glucose range were calculated for periods of Boost use, Ease-off use, or neither., Results: Participants used Boost for longer with Fiasp than insulin aspart (median [interquartile range, IQR] = 75 [53-125] minutes vs 60 [49-75] minutes; P = .01). Mean glucose on Boost initialization with Fiasp was 238 ± 62 mg/dL compared with 218 ± 45 mg/dL with insulin aspart ( P = .08). Fiasp use resulted in a greater glucose reduction 120 minutes after Boost initialization [-59 ± 34 mg/dL vs -43 ± 31 mg/dL; P = .02]. There were no statistically significant differences in sensor glucose endpoints during Boost or Ease-off periods between Fiasp and aspart. There were no statistically significant differences during Boost or Ease-off periods when comparing Lyumjev with insulin lispro. There were no safety issues when using Boost and Ease-off with ultra-rapid insulins., Conclusions: The use of Fiasp and Lyumjev during Boost or Ease-off resulted in comparable safety and efficacy to using insulin aspart and lispro., Competing Interests: Declaration of Conflicting InterestsThe author(s) declared the following potential conflicts of interest with respect to the research, authorship, and/or publication of this article: CB is a consultant at CamDiab and has received speaker honoraria from Ypsomed.

Aims: This study assessed the achievement rates of metabolic risk factor targets and their association with clinical characteristics and comorbidities among individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D) treated in the primary care in Austria., Materials and Methods: A countrywide cross-sectional study, the AUSTRO-PROFIT, was conducted in Austria from 2021 to 2023 on 635 individuals with T2D. Metabolic risk factor targets were defined as the percentage of people achieving low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) <70 mg/dL (or < 55 mg/dL if cardiovascular or microvascular disease was present), glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) <7% (53 mmol/mol) and blood pressure < 140/90 mmHg., Results: The mean age of the participants was 65.7 ± 11.2 years; the median duration of T2D was 8 (4-14) years; and 58.7% of the participants were male. The percentages of participants achieving LDL-C, HbA1c, blood pressure and all targets were 44%, 53%, 57% and 13%, respectively. Older age, longer T2D duration, cardiovascular disease and microvascular complications were associated with suboptimal achievement of metabolic risk factor targets., Conclusions: The AUSTRO-PROFIT study revealed notable variations in metabolic targets achievement with respect to clinical characteristics and comorbidities. These findings underscore the importance of establishing national diabetes registries and implementing multifactorial targeted and individualized interventions to further improve the quality of T2D care in primary care settings in Austria., (© 2024 The Author(s).

Objective: Use of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) has led to greater detection of hypoglycemia; the clinical significance of this is not fully understood. The Hypoglycaemia-Measurement, Thresholds and Impacts (Hypo-METRICS) study was designed to investigate the rates and duration of sensor-detected hypoglycemia (SDH) and their relationship with person-reported hypoglycemia (PRH) in people living with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and insulin-treated type 2 diabetes (T2D) with prior experience of hypoglycemia., Research Design and Methods: We recruited 276 participants with T1D and 321 with T2D who wore a blinded CGM and recorded PRH in the Hypo-METRICS app over 10 weeks. Rates of SDH <70 mg/dL, SDH <54 mg/dL, and PRH were expressed as median episodes per week. Episodes of SDH were matched to episodes of PRH that occurred within 1 h., Results: Median [interquartile range] rates of hypoglycemia were significantly higher in T1D versus T2D; for SDH <70 mg/dL (6.5 [3.8-10.4] vs. 2.1 [0.8-4.0]), SDH <54 mg/dL (1.2 [0.4-2.5] vs. 0.2 [0.0-0.5]), and PRH (3.9 [2.4-5.9] vs. 1.1 [0.5-2.0]). Overall, 65% of SDH <70 mg/dL was not associated with PRH, and 43% of PRH had no associated SDH. The median proportion of SDH associated with PRH in T1D was higher for SDH <70 mg/dL (40% vs. 22%) and SDH <54 mg/dL (47% vs. 25%) than in T2D., Conclusions: The novel findings are that at least half of CGM hypoglycemia is asymptomatic, even below 54 mg/dL, and many reported symptomatic hypoglycemia episodes happen above 70 mg/dL. In the clinical and research setting, these episodes cannot be used interchangeably, and both need to be recorded and addressed., (© 2024 by the American Diabetes Association.)

Aims/hypothesis: The aim of this work was to examine the impact of hypoglycaemia on daily functioning among adults with type 1 diabetes or insulin-treated type 2 diabetes, using the novel Hypo-METRICS app., Methods: For 70 consecutive days, 594 adults (type 1 diabetes, n=274; type 2 diabetes, n=320) completed brief morning and evening Hypo-METRICS 'check-ins' about their experienced hypoglycaemia and daily functioning. Participants wore a blinded glucose sensor (i.e. data unavailable to the participants) for the study duration. Days and nights with or without person-reported hypoglycaemia (PRH) and/or sensor-detected hypoglycaemia (SDH) were compared using multilevel regression models., Results: Participants submitted a mean ± SD of 86.3±12.5% morning and 90.8±10.7% evening check-ins. For both types of diabetes, SDH alone had no significant associations with the changes in daily functioning scores. However, daytime and night-time PRH (with or without SDH) were significantly associated with worsening of energy levels, mood, cognitive functioning, negative affect and fear of hypoglycaemia later that day or while asleep. In addition, night-time PRH (with or without SDH) was significantly associated with worsening of sleep quality (type 1 and type 2 diabetes) and memory (type 2 diabetes). Further, daytime PRH (with or without SDH), was associated with worsening of fear of hyperglycaemia while asleep (type 1 diabetes), memory (type 1 and type 2 diabetes) and social functioning (type 2 diabetes)., Conclusions/interpretation: This prospective, real-world study reveals impact on several domains of daily functioning following PRH but not following SDH alone. These data suggest that the observed negative impact is mainly driven by subjective awareness of hypoglycaemia (i.e. PRH), through either symptoms or sensor alerts/readings and/or the need to take action to prevent or treat episodes., (© 2024.

Adolescence remains a crucial age associated with diabetes distress in individuals living with type 1 diabetes (T1D). The Austrian organization "Diabär" regularly hosts a one-week adventure camp for adolescents (12-18 years) living with T1D. The camp focuses on "fun activities" without a structured educational protocol in order to minimize diabetes distress and increase diabetes management skills. In contrast to educational camps, training is kept to a minimum. However, attendees analyze the glycemic data of the previous day with their medical supervisor once daily during the camp. All subjects used a standardized real-time continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) system (DexcomG7) throughout the whole study. Glycemic metrics were prospectively analyzed during three periods: week 1 = home phase, week 2 = adventure camp, and week 3 = after the camp. Safety (time below range 1 [TBR1], 69-54 mg/dL, and time below range 2 [TBR2], <54 mg/dL) and efficacy (time in range [TIR], 70-180 mg/dL) were assessed by comparing the CGM data during weeks 1-3. The CGM data of 14 participants were analyzed. The TIR was higher during the camp week versus week 1 (70.4 ± 11.1% vs. 53.1 ± 20.2%; p = 0.001). The TBR1 significantly increased during camp compared to week 1 (2.5 ±1.7% vs. 1.3 ± 1.2%; p = 0.009), whereas the TBR2 did not differ. No serious adverse events occurred. This adventure camp without a main focus on education showed feasibility and safety in adolescents with T1D.

Background: In this multicenter study, performance of a novel continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) system was evaluated., Methods: Adult participants with diabetes were included in the study. They each wore three sensors of the CGM system on the upper arms for up to 14 days. During four in-clinic visits, frequent comparison measurements with capillary blood glucose (BG) samples were performed. The primary endpoint was the 20/20 agreement rate (AR): the percentage of CGM readings within ±20 mg/dL (at BG values <100 mg/dL) or ±20% (at BG values ≥100 mg/dL) of the comparator. Further evaluations included mean absolute relative difference (MARD) and 20/20 AR in different BG ranges and across the wear time., Results: Data from 48 participants and 139 sensors were analyzed. During in-clinic sessions the 20/20 AR was 90.5% and the MARD was 9.2%. For BG ranges <70, 70-180, and >180 mg/dL, 20/20 AR was 94.3%, 89.0%, and 92.5%, respectively. At the beginning, middle, and end of sensor wear time, 20/20 AR was 92.8%, 91.5%, and 85.9%, respectively. The 14-day survival probability was 82.4%. Pain and bleeding after sensor insertion were within the expected range. Based on the study outcome, the use of the device is regarded as safe., Conclusions: The system showed a good performance compared to capillary BG measurements. This level of accuracy could be shown over the entire measurement range, especially in the low glycemic range, and the whole wear time of the sensors. The results of this study are supporting a non-adjunctive use of the device., Competing Interests: Declaration of Conflicting InterestsThe author(s) declared the following potential conflicts of interest with respect to the research, authorship, and/or publication of this article: JKM is a member in the advisory boards of Abbott Diabetes Care, Becton-Dickinson/Embecta, Biomea, Eli Lilly, Medtronic, Novo Nordisk, PharmaSens, Roche Diabetes Care, Sanofi, and Viatris; received speaker honoraria from Abbott Diabetes Care, A.

Introduction: A sizeable minority of commercially available blood glucose monitoring (BGM) systems fail to satisfy regulatory accuracy requirements, such as ISO 15197:2013, after approval. This study assessed whether the BGMs tested could consistently meet these ISO requirements by investigating their accuracy in a non-standardized setting., Methods: In this 18-month post-market performance study, using the ISO criteria, healthcare professionals tested the accuracy of four CE-marked BGM systems (Roche Diabetes Care, Mannheim, Germany) on European adults with diabetes mellitus. ISO criteria included 95% of blood glucose (BG) values being within ± 15 mg/dl of a reference measurement for BG < 100 mg/dl or ± 15% for BG ≥ 100 mg/dl and, in the Parkes Consensus Error grid for type 1 diabetes comparing capillary BGM measurements versus reference method, 99% of BG values falling within zone A (no effect on clinical action or outcome) and zone B (altered clinical action with little or no effect on clinical outcome)., Results: BGM readings were obtained from 1650 participants, and the number of readings per BGM system was between 1712 and 2376. The percentage of BGM readings that fell within ISO 15197:2013 limits ranged from 99.4 to 99.9%. For all meter types, 100% of data points fell within zone A or zone B, and most data points for each meter (≥ 99.9%) were in zone A., Conclusion: All four CE-marked BGM models showed results within the accuracy limits defined by ISO 15197 in a non-standardized setting and thus consistently met regulatory accuracy requirements., Competing Interests: Declarations Conflict of interest Julia K.

Diabetes is unique among chronic diseases because clinical outcomes are intimately tied to how the person living with diabetes reacts to and implements treatment recommendations. It is further characterised by widespread social stigma, judgement and paternalism. This physical, social and psychological burden collectively influences self-management behaviours. It is widely recognised that the individual's perspective about the impact of trying to manage the disease and the burden that self-management confers must be addressed to achieve optimal health outcomes. Standardised, rigorous assessment of mental and behavioural health status, in interaction with physical health outcomes is crucial to aid understanding of person-reported outcomes (PROs). Whilst tempting to conceptualise PROs as an issue of perceived quality of life (QoL), in fact health-related QoL is multi-dimensional and covers indicators of physical or functional health status, psychological and social well-being. This complexity is illuminated by the large number of person reported outcome measures (PROMs) that have been developed across multiple psychosocial domains. Often measures are used inappropriately or because they have been used in the scientific literature rather than based on methodological or outcome assessment rigour. Given the broad nature of psychosocial functioning/mental health, it is important to broadly define PROs that are evaluated in the context of therapeutic interventions, real-life and observational studies. This report summarises the central themes and lessons derived in the assessment and use of PROMs amongst adults with diabetes. Effective assessment of PROMs routinely in clinical research is crucial to understanding the true impact of any intervention. Selecting appropriate measures, relevant to the specific factors of PROs important in the research study will provide valuable data alongside physical health data., (© 2024 Diabetes UK.)

Introduction: This study examined associations between hypoglycemia awareness status and hypoglycemia symptoms reported in real-time using the novel Hypoglycaemia-MEasurement, ThResholds and ImpaCtS (Hypo-METRICS) smartphone application (app) among adults with insulin-treated type 1 (T1D) or type 2 diabetes (T2D). Methods: Adults who experienced at least one hypoglycemic episode in the previous 3 months were recruited to the Hypo-METRICS study. They prospectively reported hypoglycemia episodes using the app for 10 weeks. Any of eight hypoglycemia symptoms were considered present if intensity was rated between "A little bit" to "Very much" and absent if rated "Not at all." Associations between hypoglycemia awareness (as defined by Gold score) and hypoglycemia symptoms were modeled using mixed-effects binary logistic regression, adjusting for glucose monitoring method and diabetes duration. Results: Of 531 participants (48% T1D, 52% T2D), 45% were women, 91% white, and 59% used Flash or continuous glucose monitoring. Impaired awareness of hypoglycemia (IAH) was associated with lower odds of reporting autonomic symptoms than normal awareness of hypoglycemia (NAH) (T1D odds ratio [OR] 0.43 [95% confidence interval {CI} 0.25-0.73], P  = 0.002); T2D OR 0.51 [95% CI 0.26-0.99], P  = 0.048), with no differences in neuroglycopenic symptoms. In T1D, relative to NAH, IAH was associated with higher odds of reporting autonomic symptoms at a glucose concentration <54 than >70 mg/dL (OR 2.18 [95% CI 1.21-3.94], P  = 0.010). Conclusion: The Hypo-METRICS app is sensitive to differences in hypoglycemia symptoms according to hypoglycemia awareness in both diabetes types. Given its high ecological validity and low recall bias, the app may be a useful tool in research and clinical settings. The clinical trial registration number is NCT04304963.

Introduction: Reporting of hypoglycaemia and its impact in clinical studies is often retrospective and subject to recall bias. We developed the Hypo-METRICS app to measure the daily physical, psychological, and social impact of hypoglycaemia in adults with type 1 and insulin-treated type 2 diabetes in real-time using ecological momentary assessment (EMA). To help assess its utility, we aimed to determine Hypo-METRICS app completion rates and factors associated with completion., Methods: Adults with diabetes recruited into the Hypo-METRICS study were given validated patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) at baseline. Over 10 weeks, they wore a blinded continuous glucose monitor (CGM), and were asked to complete three daily EMAs about hypoglycaemia and aspects of daily functioning, and two weekly sleep and productivity PROMs on the bespoke Hypo-METRICS app. We conducted linear regression to determine factors associated with app engagement, assessed by EMA and PROM completion rates and CGM metrics., Results: In 602 participants (55% men; 54% type 2 diabetes; median(IQR) age 56 (45-66) years; diabetes duration 19 (11-27) years; HbA1c 57 (51-65) mmol/mol), median(IQR) overall app completion rate was 91 (84-96)%, ranging from 90 (81-96)%, 89 (80-94)% and 94(87-97)% for morning, afternoon and evening check-ins, respectively. Older age, routine CGM use, greater time below 3.0 mmol/L, and active sensor time were positively associated with app completion., Discussion: High app completion across all app domains and participant characteristics indicates the Hypo-METRICS app is an acceptable research tool for collecting detailed data on hypoglycaemia frequency and impact in real-time., (© 2024 The Authors.

Objective: The aim of this analysis was to assess glycemic control before and during the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic., Methods: Data from 64 (main analysis) and 80 (sensitivity analysis) people with type 1 diabetes (T1D) using intermittently scanned continuous glucose monitoring (isCGM) were investigated retrospectively. The baseline characteristics were collected from electronic medical records. The data were examined over three periods of three months each: from 16th of March 2019 until 16th of June 2019 (pre-pandemic), from 1st of December 2019 until 29th of February 2020 (pre-lockdown) and from 16th of March 2020 until 16th of June 2020 (lockdown 2020), representing the very beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic and the first Austrian-wide lockdown., Results: For the main analysis, 64 individuals with T1D (22 female, 42 male), who had a mean glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) of 58.5 mmol/mol (51.0 to 69.3 mmol/mol) and a mean diabetes duration 13.5 years (5.5 to 22.0 years) were included in the analysis. The time in range (TIR [70-180mg/dL] ) was the highest percentage of measures within all three studied phases, but the lockdown 2020 phase delivered the best data in all these cases. Concerning the time below range (TBR [<70mg/dL] ) and the time above range (TAR [>180mg/dL] ), the lockdown 2020 phase also had the best values. Regarding the sensitivity analysis, 80 individuals with T1D (26 female, 54 male), who had a mean HbA1c of 57.5 mmol/mol (51.0 to 69.3 mmol/mol) and a mean diabetes duration of 12.5 years (5.5 to 20.7 years), were included. The TIR [70-180mg/dL] was also the highest percentage of measures within all three studied phases, with the lockdown 2020 phase also delivering the best data in all these cases. The TBR [<70mg/dL] and the TAR [>180mg/dL] underscored the data in the main analysis., Conclusion: Superior glycemic control, based on all parameters analyzed, was achieved during the first Austrian-wide lockdown compared to prior periods, which might be a result of reduced daily exertion or more time spent focusing on glycemic management.

Introduction: Nocturnal hypoglycemia is generally calculated between 00:00 and 06:00. However, those hours may not accurately reflect sleeping patterns and it is unknown whether this leads to bias. We therefore compared hypoglycemia rates while asleep with those of clock-based nocturnal hypoglycemia in adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D) or insulin-treated type 2 diabetes (T2D). Methods: Participants from the Hypo-METRICS study wore a blinded continuous glucose monitor and a Fitbit Charge 4 activity monitor for 10 weeks. They recorded details of episodes of hypoglycemia using a smartphone app. Sensor-detected hypoglycemia (SDH) and person-reported hypoglycemia (PRH) were categorized as nocturnal (00:00-06:00 h) versus diurnal and while asleep versus awake defined by Fitbit sleeping intervals. Paired-sample Wilcoxon tests were used to examine the differences in hypoglycemia rates. Results: A total of 574 participants [47% T1D, 45% women, 89% white, median (interquartile range) age 56 (45-66) years, and hemoglobin A1c 7.3% (6.8-8.0)] were included. Median sleep duration was 6.1 h (5.2-6.8), bedtime and waking time ∼23:30 and 07:30, respectively. There were higher median weekly rates of SDH and PRH while asleep than clock-based nocturnal SDH and PRH among people with T1D, especially for SDH <70 mg/dL (1.7 vs. 1.4, P  < 0.001). Higher weekly rates of SDH while asleep than nocturnal SDH were found among people with T2D, especially for SDH <70 mg/dL (0.8 vs. 0.7, P  < 0.001). Conclusion: Using 00:00 to 06:00 as a proxy for sleeping hours may underestimate hypoglycemia while asleep. Future hypoglycemia research should consider the use of sleep trackers to record sleep and reflect hypoglycemia while asleep more accurately. The trial registration number is NCT04304963.

Objective: To evaluate postprandial glucose control when applying (1) faster-acting insulin aspart (Fiasp) compared to insulin aspart and (2) ultra-rapid insulin lispro (Lyumjev) compared to insulin lispro using the CamAPS FX hybrid closed-loop algorithm. Research Design and Methods: We undertook a secondary analysis of postprandial glucose excursions from two double-blind, randomized, crossover hybrid closed-loop studies contrasting Fiasp to standard insulin aspart, and Lyumjev to standard insulin lispro. Endpoints included incremental area under curve (iAUC)-2h, iAUC-4h, 4 h postprandial time in target range, time above range, and time below range. It was approved by independent research ethics committees. Results: Two trials with 8 weeks of data from 51 adults with type 1 diabetes were analyzed and 7137 eligible meals were included. During Lyumjev compared with insulin lispro, iAUC-2h and iAUC-4h were significantly decreased following breakfast (mean difference 92 mmol/L per 2 h (95% confidence interval [CI]: 56 to 127); P  < 0.001 and 151 mmol/L per 4 h (95% CI: 74 to 229); P  < 0.001, respectively) and the evening meal ( P  < 0.001 and P  = 0.011, respectively). Mean time in target range (3.9-10.0 mmol/L) for 4 h postprandially significantly increased during Lyumjev with a mean difference of 6.7 percentage points (95% CI: 3.3 to 10) and 5.7 percentage points (95% CI: 1.4 to 9.9) for breakfast and evening meal, respectively. In contrast, there were no significant differences in iAUC-2h, iAUC-4h, and the other measures of postprandial glucose control between insulin aspart and Fiasp during breakfast, lunch, and evening meal ( P  > 0.05). Conclusion: The use of Lyumjev with CamAPS FX closed-loop system improved postprandial glucose excursions compared with insulin lispro, while the use of Fiasp did not provide any advantage compared with insulin aspart.

Objective: Many hybrid closed-loop (HCL) systems struggle to manage unusually high glucose levels as experienced with intercurrent illness or pre-menstrually. Manual correction boluses may be needed, increasing hypoglycemia risk with overcorrection. The Cambridge HCL system includes a user-initiated algorithm intensification mode ("Boost"), activation of which increases automated insulin delivery by approximately 35%, while remaining glucose-responsive. In this analysis, we assessed the safety of "Boost" mode., Methods: We retrospectively analyzed data from closed-loop studies involving young children (1-7 years, n = 24), children and adolescents (10-17 years, n = 19), adults (≥24 years, n = 13), and older adults (≥60 years, n = 20) with type 1 diabetes. Outcomes were calculated per participant for days with ≥30 minutes of "Boost" use versus days with no "Boost" use. Participants with <10 "Boost" days were excluded. The main outcome was time spent in hypoglycemia <70 and <54 mg/dL., Results: Eight weeks of data for 76 participants were analyzed. There was no difference in time spent <70 and <54 mg/dL between "Boost" days and "non-Boost" days; mean difference: -0.10% (95% confidence interval [CI] -0.28 to 0.07; P = .249) time <70 mg/dL, and 0.03 (-0.04 to 0.09; P = .416) time < 54 mg/dL. Time in significant hyperglycemia >300 mg/dL was 1.39 percentage points (1.01 to 1.77; P < .001) higher on "Boost" days, with higher mean glucose and lower time in target range ( P < .001)., Conclusions: Use of an algorithm intensification mode in HCL therapy is safe across all age groups with type 1 diabetes. The higher time in hyperglycemia observed on "Boost" days suggests that users are more likely to use algorithm intensification on days with extreme hyperglycemic excursions., Competing Interests: Declaration of Conflicting InterestsThe author(s) declared the following potential conflicts of interest with respect to the research, authorship, and/or publication of this article: RH reports having received speaker honoraria from Eli Lilly, Dexcom, and Novo Nordisk; receiving license fees from BBraun; patents related to closed-loop; and being director at CamDiab.

People living with diabetes mellitus can be supported in the daily management by diabetes technology with automated insulin delivery (AID) systems to reduce the risk of hypoglycemia and improve glycemic control as well as the quality of life. Due to barriers in the availability of AID-systems, the use and development of open-source AID-systems have internationally increased. This technology provides a necessary alternative to commercially available products, especially when approved systems are inaccessible or insufficiently adapted to the specific needs of the users. Open-source technology is characterized by worldwide free availability of codes on the internet, is not officially approved and therefore the use is on the individual's own responsibility. In the clinical practice a lack of expertise with open-source AID technology and concerns about legal consequences, lead to conflict situations for health-care professionals (HCP), sometimes resulting in the refusal of care of people living with diabetes mellitus. This position paper provides an overview of the available evidence and practical guidance for HCP to minimize uncertainties and barriers. People living with diabetes mellitus must continue to be supported in education and diabetes management, independent of the chosen diabetes technology including open-source technology. Check-ups of the metabolic control, acute and chronic complications and screening for diabetes-related diseases are necessary and should be regularly carried out, regardless of the chosen AID-system and by a multidisciplinary team with appropriate expertise., (© 2024.

Objective: To evaluate the association of insulin injection adherence, smart insulin pen engagement, and glycemic control using real-world data from 16 countries from adults self-administering basal insulin degludec and bolus insulin with a smart insulin pen (NovoPen 6 or NovoPen Echo Plus) alongside continuous glucose monitoring (CGM)., Research Design and Methods: Data were aggregated over 14-day periods. Treatment adherence was defined according to the number of missed basal and missed bolus insulin doses and smart pen engagement according to the number of days with data uploads., Results: Data from 3,945 adults, including 25,157 14-day periods with ≥70% CGM coverage, were analyzed. On average, 0.2 basal and 6.0 bolus insulin doses were missed over 14 days. The estimated probability of missing at least one basal insulin dose over a 14-day period was 17.6% (95% CI 16.5, 18.7). Missing one basal or bolus insulin dose per 14 days was associated with a significant decrease in percentage of time with glucose levels in range (TIR) (3.9-10.0 mmol/L), of -2.8% (95% CI -3.7, -1.8) and -1.7% (-1.8, -1.6), respectively; therefore, missing two basal or four bolus doses would decrease TIR by >5%. Smart pen engagement was associated positively with glycemic outcomes., Conclusions: This combined analysis of real-world smart pen and CGM data showed that missing two basal or four bolus insulin doses over a 14-day period would be associated with a clinically relevant decrease in TIR. Smart insulin pens provide valuable insights into treatment injection behaviors., (© 2024 by the American Diabetes Association.)

Background: CamAPS FX is a hybrid closed-loop smartphone app used to manage type one diabetes. The closed-loop algorithm has a default target glucose of 5.8 mmol/L (104.5 mg/dL), but users can select personal glucose targets (adjustable between 4.4 mmol/L and 11.0 mmol/L [79 mg/dL and 198 mg/dL, respectively])., Method: In this post-hoc analysis, we evaluated the impact of personal glucose targets on glycemic control using data from participants in five randomized controlled trials., Results: Personal glucose targets were widely used, with 20.3% of all days in the data set having a target outside the default target bin (5.5-6.0 mmol/L [99-108 mg/dL]). Personal glucose targets >6.5 mmol/L (117 mg/dL) were associated with significantly less time in target range (3.9-10.0 mmol/L [70-180 mg/dL]; 6.5-7.0 mmol/L [117-126 mg/dL]: mean difference = -3.2 percentage points [95% CI: -5.3 to -1.2; P < .001]; 7.0-7.5 mmol/L [126-135 mg/dL]: -10.8 percentage points [95% CI: -14.1 to -7.6; P < .001]). Personal targets >6.5 mmol/L (117 mg/dL) were associated with significantly lower time (<3.9 mmol/L [<70 mg/dL]; 6.5-7.0 mmol/L [117-126 mg/dL]: -1.85 percentage points [95% CI: -2.37 to -1.34; P < .001]; 7.0-7.5 mmol/L [126-135 mg/dL]: -2.68 percentage points [95% CI: -3.49 to -1.86; P < .001])., Conclusions: Discrete study populations showed differences in glucose control when applying similar personal targets., Competing Interests: Declaration of Conflicting InterestsThe author(s) declared the following potential conflicts of interest with respect to the research, authorship, and/or publication of this article: C.K.B. has received consulting fees from CamDiab and speaker honoraria from Ypsomed.
