Aims: This study aimed to identify key factors with the greatest influence on glycaemic outcomes in young individuals with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and very elevated glycaemia after 3 months of automated insulin delivery (AID).
Materials And Methods: Data were combined and analysed from two separate and previously published studies with similar inclusion criteria assessing AID (MiniMed 780G) efficacy among young individuals naïve to AID (aged 7-25 years) with glycated haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) ≥69 mmol/mol (≥8.5%).
Aim: To investigate extension phase outcomes with intermittently scanned continuous glucose monitoring (isCGM 2.0) in children with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) and elevated HbA (7.5-12.

Methods: Semi-structured interviews were conducted with parents of participants while in a post-trial extension phase of the CO-PILOT randomized controlled trial. The Capability, Opportunity, Motivation, Behaviour Model and Theoretical Domain Framework informed the interviews and framework analysis.
Article Synopsis
- EtCO (end-tidal carbon dioxide) is used to estimate PCO (partial pressure of carbon dioxide) in critically ill patients, particularly in emergency medical services, but the actual correlation between the two is uncertain.
- A study examined the relationship between EtCO and PCO in over 6,400 intubated patients during critical care transport, focusing on delta PCO values and various patient characteristics.
- Results showed a significant number of patients had a delta PCO greater than 10 mmHg, with factors like age, sex, transport type, and vital signs being associated with these differences in EtCO and PCO readings.
