Aims: To investigate the impact of real-time continuous glucose monitoring (rtCGM) on glycaemia in a predominantly indigenous (Māori) population of adults with insulin-requiring type 2 diabetes (T2D) in New Zealand.
Methods: Twelve-week, multicentre randomised controlled trial (RCT) of adults with T2D using ≥0.2 units/kg/day of insulin and elevated glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) ≥64 mmol/mol (8.
Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on comparing a fully automated closed loop (FCL) insulin delivery system with a hybrid closed loop (HCL) system in individuals with type 1 diabetes (T1D) to assess real-world utility and effectiveness.
- Seventy-five participants aged 18 to 70 will be randomly assigned to either the FCL group, which avoids manual meal boluses, or the HCL group, which requires them for announced meals, over a 12-week period.
- Primary outcomes include measuring the percentage of time participants' glucose levels remain within target range, with secondary outcomes assessing safety, psychosocial impacts, and dietary factors.
Article Synopsis
- The study aims to examine the impact of real-time continuous glucose monitoring (rtCGM) on glycaemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes (T2D) who have poor blood sugar levels, alongside assessing its cost-effectiveness and safety.
- Conducted across three locations in New Zealand, the trial will involve 80 adults with T2D, who will be split into two groups: one using rtCGM and the other using standard blood glucose monitoring for three months, followed by a crossover phase.
- The main goal is to measure how long participants maintain their glucose levels within a target range, while also analyzing other health metrics, dietary habits, and overall cost-effectiveness throughout the trial.
Generating feelings of satiety may be important in maintaining weight control. It has been hypothesised that the circulating concentration of glucose is a major determinant of satiety, yet the relationship between postprandial glycaemia and satiety is inconclusive. Our aim was to assess satiety following ingestion of beverages differing in glycaemic index (GI) containing either 50 g of sucrose (GI 65) or isomaltulose (Palatinose) (GI 32).

In a randomised crossover design, 70 healthy adults received a low-glycaemic-index (GI) isomaltulose and sucralose beverage (GI 32) and a high-GI sucrose beverage (GI 65) on two occasions that were separated by two weeks. Following beverage ingestion, declarative memory and immediate word recall were examined at 30, 80 and 130 min.
