This study is conducted in Africa. The aim of this observational study is to evaluate the incidence of serious adverse drug reactions while using insulin Levemir® under normal clinical practice conditions in Egypt.

The "Capteur Evadiac" study group, composed of French and Belgian diabetologists, has designed a 1 year randomized controlled multicenter study in order to define what should be the best clinical way of using continuous glucose monitoring in the long term to improve metabolic control in uncontrolled type 1 diabetes patients.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether type I diabetics with carnitine deficiency exhibit increased numbers of hypoglycemic (low blood sugars) events and if unrecognized hypoglycemia occurs during continuous 72-hour glucose monitoring. If they are determined to have unrecognized hypoglycemia, then oral carnitine supplementation will be given to those subjects and they will be reassessed for the number of hypoglycemic events in a 72-hour glucose monitoring.

This 1-year study will explore the influences of family and peers on how diabetic adolescents manage their disease, focusing on adolescent developmental transitions. The management of diabetes is a complex process involving daily self-care activities, problem-solving, and decision-making. It is particularly challenging during adolescence when youth are experiencing physiological, social and psychological changes, and coming under increasing peer influence and decreasing parental supervision. Although it is expected that the responsibility for diabetes management will gradually shift from the parent to the child during adolescence, research indicates that many children may be given responsibility for managing their illness too early, without adequate parental monitoring. Specifically, this study will examine the following issues: The relationship of peers, parents and school support to successful diabetes management; The influence of the adolescent's self-image and personal goals on diabetes management; The influence of the adolescent's and parents' attitudes, capability and environment on the balance of responsibility for diabetes management. Children between 10 and 16 years of age receiving treatment for diabetes type 1 at Georgetown University Medical Center's pediatric diabetes clinic may be eligible for this study. The children must have been diagnosed with diabetes at least 1 year before entering the study and must require insulin treatment. One parent of each child will also participate in the study. Children and their parents will complete the following procedures: Home Interviews: Parents and children will complete two at-home face-to-face interviews 6 months apart. At each interview, children will answer questions about their responsibility for and adherence to their diabetes management, treatment outcome expectations, optimism, self-esteem, self-consciousness, personal goals, social support, perceived barriers to diabetes management, family routine and family conflict, their parents' involvement in their diabetes management, and parenting style. Parents will evaluate their child's ability to manage his or her diabetes, level of maturity, self-esteem, and transition of responsibility; their family routine and family conflict, parent-child communication, their parenting goals, and their involvement in and responsibility for their child's diabetes management. Three days after the 6-month interview, a randomly selected group of parents and children will complete a brief, additional telephone interview covering some of the same issues. Telephone Interview: At 12 months, parents and children will complete a telephone interview that will include questions about adherence to diabetes management and the responsibility of parents and children for diabetes management.

To investigate the occurrence and associated risk factors for subclinical heart disease in persons with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM).

This study evaluates the ability of deep learning to improve the knowledge about structural and vascular retinal changes in diabetic patients undergoing artificial pancreas device, using optical coherence tomography angiography.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether verapamil can transiently improve beta cell function in those who do or do not secrete proinsulin and little/no C-peptide.

Retrospective multicenter study analyzing data gathered from medical records and diabetes management platforms to assess the effect of using Insulin Degludec (Tresiba®) on measures of diabetes control. People with type 1 diabetes who switched to Insulin Degludec from another basal insulin between 1/5/2019 and 1/6/2021 will be included. Glycemic control from 12 months before the switch to Insulin Degludec will be compared to glycemic control of the 12 months after the switch.

This study proposes to examine the contribution of CFTR variants to exocrine pancreatic insufficiency and hypoglycemic risk. Hypoglycemia is one the most frequent complications of type 1 diabetes management. Despite recent innovations, hypoglycemic risk remains high for people living with type 1 diabetes (PWT1D). Recent studies have shown that pancreatic insufficiency could affect hypoglycemic risk. Up to now, there are limited data on the association between pancreatic insufficiency and glucose control (i.e. the frequency and severity of hypoglycemic episodes as well as HbA1c levels). The main objective of this study is to determine the impact of pancreatic insufficiency on glucose control in PWT1D, and to address the role of CFTR variants as potential contributors to pancreatic insufficiency.
