Objective:: to describe the process of developing of an educational booklet on insulin therapy for children with diabetes mellitus type 1.
Method:: methodological approach, in which the following steps were carried out: selecting of the content and type of technology to be developed (for this step, an integrative review, an analysis of the comments of blogs about Diabetes Mellitus type 1 and interviews with the children were performed), creation of images, formatting and layout composition.
Results:: the work resulted in the production of the final version of the educational booklet, which was titled Aplicando a insulina: a aventura de Beto [Applying insulin: Beto's adventure]. The process of developing of the booklet was based on the active participation of the children and guided by the theoretical framework of Piagetian Constructivism.
Conclusion:: the resource is a facilitator for the improvement of the knowledge and practices of self care of children with Diabetes Mellitus type 1.

Background: Quality of life (QOL) is important for evaluating medical care outcomes. In chronic kidney disease (CKD) population, generic instruments, such as WHOQOL-BREF and EQ-5D, are commonly used for comparing various medical conditions for policy-making purposes. However, their psychometric properties have not yet been validated in non-dialysis CKD population.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) represents a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by disrupted carbohydrate and lipid balance, resulting in hyperglycemia. This study evaluated the impact of polysaccharides derived from Cynanchum auriculatum Royle ex Wight (CRP) on mitigating hyperglycemia and modulating intestinal microbiota in T2DM mice. Findings indicated that CRP is mainly linked by →6)α-D-Glcp-(1→ and CRP-H demonstrated greater efficacy than CRP-L in regulating hypoglycemic-related indicators such as serum high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-c) level.

Background: Maintaining optimum glycaemic control is essential to reducing comorbidity and mortality in diabetes. However, research indicates that <50 % of patients achieve their target HbA1c ranges. Laboratory studies suggest that olive leaf extract (OLE) may improve glycaemic control, however clinical studies in persons with diabetes are lacking.

Objective: To evaluate the risk of acute pancreatitis and biliary disease in patients treated with glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RA).
Method: Population-based, propensity-weighted, new user, active comparator design study including patients with diabetes and obesity initiating treatment with GLP-1 RA or the comparator group sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT-2i) in the region of Valencia from 2015 to 2021.
Results: In adjusted, per protocol main analysis, no risk differences were found for acute pancreatitis (HR: 0.

Background: Lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) is an enzyme implicated in inflammation and oxidative stress, and has been associated with cardiovascular conditions and adverse outcomes, particularly in diabetes and its complications. However, no prior studies have examined the relationship between Lp-PLA2 and diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This research aims to explore the potential association between Lp-PLA2 and DPN.
