Aims/introduction: We evaluated the effect of the MiniMed™ 770G, an insulin pump using hybrid closed-loop technology, on blood glucose management and quality of life in Japanese people with type 1 diabetes.
Materials And Methods: This was a 52-week, prospective, observational study. Fifty Japanese people with type 1 diabetes switched from the MiniMed™ 640G to 770G, and we analyzed the continuous glucose monitoring data of 24 subjects who used auto mode throughout the study.
Introduction: Recent studies have shown that the quality of life (QOL) of people living with type 1 diabetes (T1D) is poor and must be improved. However, the living situation and QOL of adults living with T1D in Japan have not been fully clarified. This study will examine their lifestyle, QOL, and clinical situation, as well as the relationships between them.

It automatically suspends insulin delivery when the sensor detects or predicts low glucose values. The aim of this study was to analyze the safety and efficacy of PLGM in patients treated in a Japanese center.

Objective: To evaluate the accuracy of postprandial glucagon level measurements using a sandwich ELISA vs a recently established liquid chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS) method in type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Design And Participants: Twenty patients with type 2 diabetes treated with insulin underwent a meal test before and after administration of the dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor anagliptin for 4 weeks.
