Article Synopsis
  • Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) and continuous subcutaneous insulin infusions (CSII) are essential treatments for type 1 diabetes (T1D), but they may cause dermatologic complications like contact dermatitis and lipodystrophies, which negatively affect glycemic control and patient adherence.
  • A systematic review analyzed 30 studies focusing on dermatologic issues related to CGM and CSII in pediatric patients, finding that contact dermatitis was the most common complication reported.
  • The findings highlight the need for better manufacturer transparency and further research to address how these skin complications may impact long-term T1D management in young patients.

HIV infection has been controlled only since the introduction of triple therapy in 1996, combining, as antiretroviral agents, two nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) and one protease inhibitor (PI). However, among the NRTIs, the thymidine analogues stavudine and zidovudine led to lipoatrophy, either generalized or associated with visceral fat hypertrophy and buffalo hump. These molecules also increased insulin resistance and the prevalence of diabetes.

  • Results showed that about 66.8% of children experienced skin issues, including pigmentation changes, allergies, and infections, with significant factors identified being the caregiver's education level, existing skin allergies, and the specific brand of insulin pump used.
  • The findings suggest that health education should incorporate these factors, alongside the typical focus areas, to improve care for children using insulin pumps.
