Relation of Health-Related Quality of Life with Glycemic Control and Use of Diabetes Technology in Children and Adolescents with Type 1 Diabetes: Results from a National Population Based Study

/

Lower HbA1c measurements and male sex were associated with higher health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in the age group 10-17 years, but not in children under 10 years. Insulin pump and CGM use were not significantly associated with HRQOL.

People with type 1 diabetes have a higher risk of mortality than do people without diabetes, but it is unclear how the excess risk of death in people with type 1 diabetes has changed over time.

In this study we assembled aggregate data on mortality during the period 2000–2016 in people with type 1 diabetes aged 0–79 years from Australia, Denmark, Latvia, Scotland, Spain (Catalonia) and the USA (Kaiser Permanente). We found an all-cause mortality rates in people with type 1 diabetes in the six data sources from 2000 to 2016. The excess mortality in people with type 1 diabetes relative to those without diabetes, declined over time in half of the six included data sources. People with type 1 diabetes still had a 2–5 times higher risk of death compared to those without diabetes Continuous improvement in the multidimensional management for people with type 1 diabetes is critical for on-going reductions in mortality.

How Long-Term Physical Activity May Reduce Insulin Resistance

/

Insulin resistance is a core finding in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and physical activity has the potential of improving insulin resistance. In a newly published review, Sindre Lee Ødegaard and co-workers describe a model of potential mechanisms behind the beneficial effects of physical activity on insulin resistance. They briefly summarize an integrated physiological perspective on insulin resistance and describe the effects of long-term PA on signaling molecules involved in cellular responses.
