Evaluation of hybrid closed-loop insulin delivery system in type 1 diabetes in real-world clinical practice: One-year observational study.

Background: In 2016, the Food and Drug Administration approved the first hybrid closed-loop (HCL) insulin delivery system for adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D). There is limited information on the impact of using HCL systems on patient-reported outcomes (PROs) in patients with T1D in real-world clinical practice. In this independent study, we evaluated glycemic parameters and PROs over one year of continuous use of Medtronic's 670G HCL in real-world clinical practice.

Magnitude of A1C improvement in relation to baseline A1C and amount of weight loss in response to intensive lifestyle intervention in real-world diabetes practice: 13 years of observation.

Background: Effect of intensive lifestyle intervention (ILI) on A1C in participants with diabetes is underestimated. A1C improvement is presumed to be dependent on the amount of weight loss. Here, we evaluate the magnitude of A1C change in relation to baseline A1C and the amount of weight loss in participants with diabetes who underwent ILI over 13 years in real-world clinical practice.

Hybrid model of intensive lifestyle intervention is potentially effective in patients with diabetes & obesity for post-COVID era.

The Weight Achievement and Intensive Treatment (Why WAIT) program is a 12-week multidisciplinary intensive lifestyle intervention (ILI) for patients with diabetes and obesity in real-world clinical practice that has led to long-term weight loss maintenance for up to 10 years. During COVID-19, we reported that a virtual model (VM) of the program was equally effective in reducing body weight and improving glycemic control. Here, we test a newly-introduced hybrid model (HM), to accommodate ongoing restrictions of the pandemic.
