Toward Automation: The Road Traveled and Road Ahead for Integrating Automated Insulin Delivery into Inpatient Care.

The introduction of automated insulin delivery (AID) systems represents a significant advancement in diabetes care, offering substantial benefits in outpatient settings. Although clinical studies suggest that these systems can also help improve glycemic control in acutely ill patients, several barriers remain for the actual implementation and use of these technologies in clinical practice. Three main contexts for inpatient use are addressed, including: (a) continuation of personal AID systems, (b) initiation of AID during hospitalization, and (c) initiation of AID systems at discharge.

Effect of exercise on plasma insulin levels in individuals with type 1 diabetes: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Aims: Current evidence of the impact of acute exercise on insulin levels in individuals with type 1 diabetes remains controversial. Therefore, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to explore exercise-induced changes in insulin levels.

Materials And Methods: We conducted a systematic review (until 05 November 2023) and meta-analysis exploring the effect of exercise on insulin concentration in individuals with type 1 diabetes.

Diabetes Technology Use in Special Populations: A Narrative Review of Psychosocial Factors.

As diabetes technologies continue to advance, their use is expanding beyond type 1 diabetes to include populations with type 2 diabetes, older adults, pregnant individuals, those with psychiatric conditions, and hospitalized patients. This review examines the psychosocial outcomes of these technologies across these diverse groups, with a focus on treatment satisfaction, quality of life, and self-management behaviors. Despite demonstrated benefits in glycemic outcomes, the adoption and sustained use of these technologies face unique challenges in each population.

Simplified meal announcement study (SMASH) using hybrid closed-loop insulin delivery in youth and young adults with type 1 diabetes: a randomised controlled two-centre crossover trial.

Aims/hypothesis: The majority of hybrid closed-loop systems still require carbohydrate counting (CC) but the evidence for its justification remains limited. Here, we evaluated glucose control with simplified meal announcement (SMA) vs CC in youth and young adults with type 1 diabetes using the mylife CamAPS FX system.

Methods: We conducted a two-centre, randomised crossover, non-inferiority trial in two University Hospitals in Switzerland in 46 participants (aged 12-20 years) with type 1 diabetes using multiple daily injections (n=35), sensor-augmented pump (n=4) or hybrid closed-loop (n=7) therapy before enrolment.

Consensus Report on Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonists as Adjunctive Treatment for Individuals With Type 1 Diabetes Using an Automated Insulin Delivery System.

With increasing prevalence of obesity and cardiovascular diseases, there is a growing interest in the use of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) as an adjunct therapy in type 1 diabetes (T1D). The GLP-1RAs are currently not approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of T1D in the absence of randomized controlled trials documenting efficacy and safety of these agents in this population. The Diabetes Technology Society convened a series of three consensus meetings of clinicians and researchers with expertise in diabetes technology, GLP-1RA therapy, and T1D management.
