Background: Hypoglycemia is common in individuals with type 1 diabetes, especially during exercise. We investigated the accuracy of two different continuous glucose monitoring systems during exercise-related hypoglycemia in an experimental setting.
Materials And Methods: Fifteen individuals with type 1 diabetes participated in two separate euglycemic-hypoglycemic clamp days (Clamp-exercise and Clamp-rest) including five phases: 1) baseline euglycemia, 2) plasma glucose (PG) decline ± exercise, 3) 15-minute hypoglycemia ± exercise, 4) 45-minute hypoglycemia, and 5) recovery euglycemia.
Context: People with type 1 diabetes (T1D) are at increased risk of thrombosis compared to the general population; however, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Hypoglycemia induced at rest can induce coagulation activation, but little is known about the hemostatic effects of exercise-related hypoglycemia in people with T1D.
Objective: We compared hemostatic profiles of individuals with T1D with healthy controls and explored hemostatic effects of hypoglycemia, induced with or without exercise, in participants with T1D.
Aim: To investigate the impact of hypoglycaemia, hyperglycaemia and glycaemic variability on arrhythmia susceptibility in people with type 1 diabetes.
Materials And Methods: Thirty adults with type 1 diabetes were included in a 12-month observational exploratory study. Daytime and night-time incident rate ratios (IRRs) of arrhythmias were determined for hypoglycaemia (interstitial glucose [IG] <3.
Aim: To investigate changes in cardiac repolarization abnormalities (heart rate-corrected QT [QT ] [primary endpoint], T-wave abnormalities) and heart-rate variability measures in people with type 1 diabetes during insulin-induced hypoglycaemia followed by recovery hyperglycaemia versus euglycaemia.
Methods: In a randomized crossover study, 24 individuals with type 1 diabetes underwent two experimental clamps with three steady-state phases during electrocardiographic monitoring: (1) a 45-minute euglycaemic phase (5-8 mmol/L), (2) a 60-minute insulin-induced hypoglycaemic phase (2.5 mmol/L), and (3) 60-minute recovery in either hyperglycaemia (20 mmol/L) or euglycaemia (5-8 mmol/L).
Aims: To investigate changes in cardiac repolarisation during exercise-related hypoglycaemia compared to hypoglycaemia induced at rest in people with type 1 diabetes.
Material And Methods: In a randomised crossover study, 15 men with type 1 diabetes underwent two separate hyperinsulinaemic euglycaemic-hypoglycaemic clamp experiments during Holter-ECG monitoring. One experiment included a bout of moderate-intensity cycling exercise (60 min) along with declining plasma glucose (PG; Clamp-exercise).
