Juvenile insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus type 1 (IDDM) is a well-recognized worldwide entity, the significance of which has increased because of its recent upsurging trends, warranting attention on variety of its clinical expressions, in particular, pertaining to skin, an aspect seldom taken cognizance of. Hence an endeavour to recap the related dermatoses, such as limited joint mobility syndrome including sclerodermoid (scleroderma-like) changes, xerosis, necrobiosis lipoidica diabeticorum, granuloma annulare, diabetic foot syndrome, has been made. Complexities relating to the recently explored issues of atopic dermatitis and drug hypersensitivity syndrome have also been covered adequately. In addition, the current concepts of the physiopathology of type 1 diabetes-related dermatoses are briefly recapitulated for clarity.

Discovery of a TRMT10A mutation in a case of atypical diabetes: Case report.
Diabetes Metab
November 2024
Faculty of Medicine, University of Lorraine, Vandoeuvre-lès-Nancy, France; Department of Urology, University Hospital, Nancy, France. Electronic address:
It is notable that monogenic forms of diabetes are exceedingly uncommon, with only 28 genes thus far identified. Such conditions frequently result in the dysfunction of pancreatic cells responsible for insulin production. Mutation in the TRMT10A gene leads to a rare genetic disease that is associated with endocrine and metabolic disorders, including diabetes and short stature.

Biological and Environmental Engineering, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY, 14853, USA.
Automated delivery of insulin based on continuous glucose monitoring is revolutionizing the way insulin-dependent diabetes is treated. However, challenges remain for the widespread adoption of these systems, including the requirement of a separate glucose sensor, sophisticated electronics and algorithms, and the need for significant user input to operate these costly therapies. Herein, a user-centric glucose-responsive cannula is reported for electronics-free insulin delivery.

Department of Health Promotion, Mother and Child Care, Internal Medicine and Medical Specialties (PROMISE), School of Medicine, University of Palermo, Palermo, Italy.
Background: The aim of this study is to compare two groups of celiac patients: the first one, in which diagnosis was based on a "biopsy sparing" approach according to the 2012 ESPGHAN criteria, and the second one, based on the biopsy approach like the one of the 1991 Revised Criteria, in order to find relevant difference for sex, M/F ratio, age at diagnosis, clinical features at the onset, presence and prevalence of concomitant autoimmune disorders.
Methods: Our study involves 61 patients having the Celiac Disease (CD) onset from February 2013 to February 2020. The 32 patients who received diagnosis according "biopsy sparing" criteria were enrolled in group (1) The 29 patients who received diagnosis by duodenal biopsy were enrolled in group (2) Prevalence of comorbidities was analysed through chi-square test.
Insulin Adherence in Adolescents with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus.
Indian J Endocrinol Metab
August 2023
Centre for Diabetes, Endocrinology and Metabolism, UCMS-GTB Hospital, Delhi, India.
Adherence to medication, especially insulin, is a key contributor to diabetes treatment outcomes. Lack of adherence is common among patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) ranging from 23% to 77%, with a higher frequency in developing countries. Poor adherence results in worse glycaemic control and increased mortality and morbidity due to diabetes complications.

Background: Wolfram syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder that affects 1/200,000 to 1/1,000,000 children. It is characterized by juvenile onset diabetes, optic nerve atrophy and other systemic manifestations. Symptoms of the disease arise mostly in early childhood with a high mortality rate due to severe neurological complications.
