Enhanced Metabolic Control in a Pediatric Population with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus Using Hybrid Closed-Loop and Predictive Low-Glucose Suspend Insulin Pump Treatments.
Pediatr Rep
December 2024
Department of Endocrinology, Diabetes Mellitus, Nutrition and Metabolic Disorders, "Carol Davila" University of Medicine and Pharmacy, 050474 Bucharest, Romania.
Background: Insulin pumps coupled with continuous glucose monitoring sensors use algorithms to analyze real-time blood glucose levels. This allows for the suspension of insulin administration before hypoglycemic thresholds are reached or for adaptive tuning in hybrid closed-loop systems. This longitudinal retrospective study aims to analyze real-world glycemic outcomes in a pediatric population transitioning to such devices.

Cureus
December 2024
Department of Trauma and Orthopaedic Surgery, Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital Drogheda, Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland (RCSI) Hospital Group, Drogheda, IRL.
Introduction: Trauma and orthopedics departments have traditionally used face-to-face (FTF) fracture clinics for non-operative fractures. Developed in 2011, the virtual fracture clinic (VFC) was fully implemented at an institution during the COVID-19 pandemic to reduce in-person interactions.
Aims: First, the study aims to measure the percentage of non-operative patients triaged through the VFC when this was optional and re-audit after implementing a COVID-19-related policy change mandating VFC triage.
Hybrid closed-loop insulin therapy and risk of severe hypoglycaemia and diabetic ketoacidosis in young people (aged 2-20 years) with type 1 diabetes: a population-based study.
Lancet Diabetes Endocrinol
December 2024
German Center for Diabetes Research (DZD), Neuherberg, Germany; Institute of Epidemiology and Medical Biometry, ZIBMT, Ulm University, Ulm, Germany.
Background: The effect of closed-loop insulin delivery on the risk of acute diabetes complications in people with type 1 diabetes is unclear. We investigated whether the rates of severe hypoglycaemia and diabetic ketoacidosis are lower with hybrid closed-loop insulin therapy compared with sensor-augmented (open-loop) pump therapy in a large cohort of young people.
Methods: In this population-based cohort study, we evaluated young people with type 1 diabetes from 250 diabetes centres in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and Luxembourg participating in the Diabetes Prospective Follow-up (DPV) initiative.
Intraoperative Frontal EEG Alpha Power is Associated with Post-Operative Mortality and Other Adverse Outcomes.
Anesthesiology
November 2024
Department of Anesthesia, Perioperative and Pain Medicine, Stanford University School of Medicine, Palo Alto, CA, USA.
Article Synopsis
- A study analyzing intraoperative EEG data from 1,081 patients found that higher alpha power (8-12Hz) during surgery is associated with lower post-operative mortality and better cognitive outcomes.
- The research indicated significant correlations between alpha power and mortality within various time frames: 30, 90, 180 days, and 1 year post-surgery.
- These findings suggest that measuring intraoperative EEG alpha power could be a valuable tool for predicting patient outcomes and improving perioperative risk assessment.
Mateo is a 2-week-old male who presented for evaluation of neonatal fever and whose parents speak Spanish. Workup revealed pyelonephritis, underlying renal anomalies, and vesicoureteral reflux. A complex interplay of individual and contextual factors contributed to Mateo not receiving prophylactic antibiotics, which ultimately led to a potentially preventable subsequent admission for sepsis secondary to Escherichia coli pyelonephritis with bacteremia.
