Obesity in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) may worsen their prognosis. Bariatric surgery in these patients can be associated with complications such as diabetic ketoacidosis and severe hypoglycemic episodes. Closed-loop insulin delivery could be a solution to avoid them. A 45-year-old woman with T1D and obesity (body mass index of 38.4 kg/m) was included in our preoperative course of bariatric surgery. Three months before surgery, a closed-loop insulin delivery was instituted due to one prior severe hypoglycemia. Patient did not have immediate or late postoperative hypoglycemia despite consuming a weak amount of carbohydrate. Three months after surgery glycemic control was on target with 86% of time in range 70-180 mg/dL and no time below 70 mg/dL. This case report shows that the use of a closed-loop insulin delivery made it possible to perform bariatric surgery in complete safety for our patient.

This study evaluated a next-generation automated insulin delivery (AID) algorithm for Omnipod in type 1 and type 2 diabetes across multiple phases: 14-day run-in with usual therapy, 48-h AID use in a hotel setting (type 1 only), and up to 6 weeks of outpatient AID use. Participants did, or did not, deliver manual boluses at alternating periods. Twelve adults with type 1 diabetes completed the hotel phase; 9 of those 12 plus 8 adults with type 2 diabetes completed the subsequent outpatient phase.

To evaluate real-world outcomes in adults with type 1 diabetes initiating open-source automated insulin delivery systems (OS-AID). Adults with type 1 diabetes who commenced OS-AID, between May 2016 and April 2021, across 12 centers in the United Kingdom were included. Anonymized clinical data, collected during routine clinical care between December 2019 and November 2023, were submitted to a secure web-based tool within the National Health Service network.

Technology usage and glycaemic outcomes in a single tertiary centre with an ethnically diverse and socioeconomically deprived cohort of children with type 1 diabetes mellitus.

Department of Endocrinology and Diabetes, Birmingham Women's and Children's NHS Foundation Trust, Birmingham, United Kingdom.

Background: The UK National Paediatric Diabetes Audit (NPDA) data reports disparities in Haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels among children and young people (CYP) with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D), with higher levels in those of Black ethnic background and lower socioeconomic status who have less access to technology. We investigate HbA1c differences in a T1D cohort with higher than national average technology uptake where > 60% come from an ethnic minority and/or socioeconomically deprived population.

Design & Methods: Retrospective cross-sectional study investigating the influence of demographic factors, technology use, and socioeconomic status (SES) on glycaemic outcomes.
