Oxidative Stress Causes Mitochondrial and Electrophysiologic Dysfunction to Promote Atrial Fibrillation in Mice.

Background: The strongest genetic risk factors for atrial fibrillation (AF) are DNA variants on chromosome 4q25 near the transcription factor gene . Mice deficient in () have increased AF susceptibility, although the molecular mechanism(s) remains controversial. encodes a transcription factor that activates an antioxidant response to promote cardiac repair.

Developing a multicomponent intervention to increase glucose time in range in adolescents and young adults with type 1 diabetes: An optimisation trial to screen continuous glucose monitoring, sleep extension, healthier snacking and values-guided self-management intervention components.

Aim: The study aimed to identify active intervention components to improve glucose sensor time in range (TIR; 70-180 mg/dL [3.9-10.0 mmol/L]) by ≥5 % among adolescents and young adults (13 to 20 yrs) with type 1 diabetes and above recommended glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c ≥ 7.

The Glycemic Impact of Protein Ingestion in People With Type 1 Diabetes.

In individuals with type 1 diabetes, carbohydrate is commonly recognized as the primary macronutrient influencing postprandial glucose levels. Accumulating evidence indicates that protein ingestion also contributes to the increment in postprandial glucose levels, despite endocrine and metabolic responses different from those with carbohydrate ingestion. However, findings regarding protein ingestion's glycemic effect in people with type 1 diabetes are equivocal, with the magnitude of glycemic response seemingly dependent on the rate of absorption and composition of protein ingested.

International Society for Pediatric and Adolescent Diabetes Clinical Practice Consensus Guidelines 2024 Diabetes Technologies: Glucose Monitoring.

The International Society for Pediatric and Adolescent Diabetes (ISPAD) guidelines represent a rich repository that serves as the only comprehensive set of clinical recommendations for children, adolescents, and young adults living with diabetes worldwide. This chapter builds on the 2022 ISPAD guidelines, and summarizes recent advances in the technology behind glucose monitoring, and its role in glucose-responsive integrated technology that is feasible with the use of automated insulin delivery (AID) systems in children and adolescents.
