Article Synopsis
- A study evaluated the long-term effectiveness of the MiniMed™ 780G advanced hybrid closed-loop (AHCL) system in 296 adults with type 1 diabetes over a period of up to 2 years.
- Results showed significant improvements in continuous glucose monitoring metrics, with time in range increasing notably from 58.1% to 70.3% during the first quarter and maintaining this trend for the entire study.
- Lower baseline glycated hemoglobin (HbA) levels were a key predictor of better glycemic control, although participants with higher baseline HbA experienced the most significant improvements.
Introduction: The role of glycemic control, both prior and during hospitalization, on mortality from COVID-19 in diabetic patients is debated. Furthermore, it is not clear whether hyperglycemia has a direct effect or requires inflammatory mechanisms.
Objective: To identify predictors of clinical outcomes (in-hospital mortality, length of hospitalization, respiratory failure, need for intensive care), considering hyperglycemia, inflammation markers and clinical history.
Aim: To re-evaluate the diagnostic criteria of insulin resistance hepatic iron overload based on clinical, biochemical and histopathological findings.
Methods: We studied 81 patients with hepatic iron overload not explained by known genetic and acquired causes. The metabolic syndrome (MS) was defined according to ATPIII criteria.
