Focusing on the treatment of diabetes with continuous subcutaneous insulin injection (CSII), the authors describe 1) Patients who are candidates for this treatment according to scientific associations; 2) Characteristics and functioning methods for insulin delivery systems as well as the different models of insulin delivery systems, catheters, needles and commercial inserting mechanisms presently available in Spain. The authors report on the experiences that the diabetes team at the Barcelona "Hospital Clinic" have with CSII therapy The authors describe the structure of a Therapeutic Educational Program directed at patients suffering from DM1 who are candidates for CSII therapy the process which these patients follow and the results of this program, evaluated after two years of follow-up study.

Diabetic ulcers (DUs) are characterized by a microenvironment with high oxidative stress, high blood glucose levels, and recalcitrant bacterial infections. This microenvironment is accompanied by long-term suppression of endogenous antioxidant systems, which makes their clinical management extremely challenging. To address this issue, a hybridized novel gold-palladium (AuPd) nanoshell of the injectable/injectable hydrogel system UiO/AuPd/BNN6/PEG@Gel (UAPsBP@Gel) is developed.

Aims: To date, bariatric surgery (BS) is the most effective long-term treatment for obesity, but weight regain (WR) is common. The very low-calorie ketogenic diet (VLCKD) is effective for weight loss and may influence gut microbiota (GM) composition, but it has been scarcely evaluated in post-bariatric patients. This study compared the efficacy and safety of a VLCKD in patients with WR post-bariatric surgery (BS+) and in bariatric surgery-naïve patients (BS-).
