Prevalence and associations of impaired awareness of hypoglycemia in a pediatric type 1 diabetes population - The Norwegian Childhood Diabetes Registry.

Aims: To determine the prevalence and associations of impaired awareness of hypoglycemia (IAH) in pediatric type 1 diabetes.

Methods: Nationwide, population-based cross-sectional study with 51 % participation. Participants (n = 1329; 53 % males) aged 2-19 years (median 13.

Assessing awareness of hypoglycemia in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes: Evaluation of established questionnaires.

Objective: To evaluate the use of two questionnaires assessing awareness of hypoglycemia, in a pediatric type 1 diabetes (T1D) population.

Methods: Prospective observational study with children (aged 9-18 years) and parents (for children aged 2-11 years) answering the Gold and Clarke questionnaires assessing awareness of hypoglycemia. Psychometric properties of the questionnaires were evaluated, and the most appropriate cut-off score to classify participants as having normal vs impaired awareness of hypoglycemia (IAH) was determined by ability to recognize subsequent hypoglycemia and hypoglycemia severity, documented in a 4-week blood glucose diary.

Effect of 24 sessions of high-intensity aerobic interval training carried out at either high or moderate frequency, a randomized trial.

Purpose: The training response of an intensified period of high-intensity exercise is not clear. Therefore, we compared the cardiovascular adaptations of completing 24 high-intensity aerobic interval training sessions carried out for either three or eight weeks, respectively.

Methods: Twenty-one healthy subjects (23.

Telomere length and long-term endurance exercise: does exercise training affect biological age? A pilot study.

Background: Telomeres are potential markers of mitotic cellular age and are associated with physical ageing process. Long-term endurance training and higher aerobic exercise capacity (VO(2max)) are associated with improved survival, and dynamic effects of exercise are evident with ageing. However, the association of telomere length with exercise training and VO(2max) has so far been inconsistent.
