Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates how maternal lipid profiles, particularly triglycerides, in the third trimester relate to the risk of having larger-than-normal babies (LGA) in women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM).
- - Researchers analyzed data from 100 pregnant women with GDM, finding that higher pre-pregnancy BMI and elevated triglyceride levels were linked to an increased likelihood of delivering LGA newborns.
- - The results suggest that high triglyceride levels in late pregnancy are a significant predictor of LGA, regardless of factors like blood sugar control and weight gain during pregnancy, warranting further research on this relationship.
Introduction: Hybrid closed-loop systems (HCLS) use has shown that time in range (TIR) tends to improve more during the nighttime than during the day. This study aims to compare the conventional TIR, currently accepted as 70 to 180 mg/dL, with a proposed recalculated time in range (RTIR) considering a tighter glucose target of 70 to 140 mg/dL for the nighttime fasting period in T1DM patients under HCLS.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective study that included adults patients receiving treatment with Tandem t:slim X2 Control-IQ.
Adjuvant therapy with sodium-glucose cotransport 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) in type 1 diabetes (T1D) is associated with an improvement in glycemic control, but increases the risk of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). However, real-life studies in individuals with T1D under continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) are still scarce. We present the first real-life study performed in patients with T1D exclusively treated with CSII.

Methods: We performed a multicentric retrospective study based on the Portuguese GDM Database. Women were classified as within GWG, insufficient (IGWG) or excessive (EGWG) than the Institute of Medicine recommendations.
