Article Synopsis
  • Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a major reason for hospitalizing young children in Poland, particularly those under 5 years old.
  • A study analyzed data from public hospitals between July 2015 and June 2023, revealing that RSV hospitalizations increased every season, including during and after the COVID-19 pandemic.
  • The highest hospitalization rates were found in infants, especially those aged 2-3 months, and a notable rise in hospitalizations for older age groups followed the pandemic, altering the traditional seasonal patterns of RSV infections.

Introduction: The aim of the study was to examine glycaemic control and safety of insulin degludec (degludec) in patients with either type 1 diabetes (T1D) or type 2 diabetes (T2D) under routine care settings in Canada.

Methods: Data were extracted from medical records of adults with T1D or T2D who switched to degludec (± prandial insulin) from another basal insulin (± prandial insulin) ≥ 6 months prior to data collection. The primary endpoint was change in glycated haemoglobin (HbA) at 6 ± 3 months after degludec initiation.
