Aim: Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) is a raising concern in type 1 diabetes (T1D) patients. We evaluated whether multiple daily injections (MDI) or continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) may differentially affect NAFLD.
Methods: NAFLD was assessed by Fatty Liver Index (FLI) and Hepatic Steatosis Index (HSI) in 659 T1D patients treated by MDI (n = 414, 65% men) or CSII (n = 245, 50% men) without alcohol abuse or other liver diseases.
Background: The use of dressings is an essential component of the standard of care for diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs); however, despite the wide variety of dressings available, there is a lack of evidence from head-to-head randomized controlled trials. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of extract and polyhexanide (Fitostimoline hydrogel/Fitostimoline Plus gauze) versus saline gauze dressings in patients with DFUs.
Methods: This study involved a monocentric, two-arm, open-label, controlled trial in patients with DFUs (Grades I or II, Stage A or C, based on the Texas classification) randomized to 12 weeks of dressing with Fitostimoline hydrogel/Fitostimoline Plus gauze or saline gauze.
Aims: The study compares the performance of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) risk criteria and the Steno Type 1 Risk Engine (ST1RE) in the prediction of cardiovascular (CV) events.
Methods: 456 adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D) were retrospectively studied. During 8.
