Incidence of Hypoglycemia During Ramadan in Patients With Type1 Diabetes on Insulin Pump Versus...
Type 1 DiabetesManaging patients with type1 diabetes when fasting Ramadan is very challenging. Insulin pump offers the advantage of flexibility and precision to administering insulin and has been proven to reduce severe hypoglycemia compared to multi-dose injection (MDI). However, there are extremely limited studies on the difference between insulin pump compared to MDI on the incidence of hypoglycemia and other acute complications during fasting Ramadan The investigators hypothesized that insulin pump would be associated with less hypoglycemic events during fasting Ramadan compared to MDI without deterioration in glycemic control. Results of this study are descriptive but will fill a current gap in knowledge and may contribute to development of future guidelines for the management of type1DM during Ramadan.
An International Survey on Hypoglycaemia Among Insulin-treated Patients With Diabetes
DiabetesDiabetes Mellitus3 moreThis study is conducted in Europe. The aim of the study is to gather information about hypoglycaemia (low blood glucose) among patients with Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes mellitus. The study is both retrospective and prospective.
Identification of Inpatients at Risk for Poor Glycemic Control
HypoglycemiaHyperglycemiaBoth hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia can be detrimental to hospitalized patients. However, it is not clear which patients are more likely to develop significant problems with hypoglycemia or severe hyperglycemia in the hospital. Our hypothesis is that we will be able to identify risk factors present at admission that identify patients at greater risk of poor inpatient glycemic control
Hypoglycaemia and Cardiac Arrhythmias in Type 1 Diabetes
Hypoglycemia (Diabetic)Hyperglycaemia (Diabetic)4 moreThe investigators hypothesise that patients with type 1 diabetes have clinically relevant, but often unrecognised, episodes of arrhythmias linked to episodes of hypoglycaemia and/or clinically significant fluctuations in plasma glucose.
Biomarkers in Exhaled Breath of Glucose Fluctuation in Type 1 Diabetes
Volatile Organic CompoundsHypoglycemia1 moreThe investigators are investigating the "biochemical fingerprint" of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) in the breath of people with type 1 diabetes.
Malglycemia in the Pediatric Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant Population
Stem Cell Transplant ComplicationsHyperglycemia1 moreThis is a retrospective chart review of patients who underwent a hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) between 1994 and 2016 to evaluate incidence of malglycemia and the relationship to specific outcomes.
Analysis of Related Risk Factors of Hypoglycemia Consciousness Disorder
HypoglycemiaObjective to explore the high risk factors and inducements of consciousness disorder in patients with hypoglycemia, and to conduct a retrospective study.
Whole Body 111In-exendin-4 Imaging Study in Insulinoma Patients
HyperinsulinismHypoglycemia1 moreThe purpose of this study is to determine whether the investigators' new imaging modality (111In-exendin-4) has advantages in detecting insulinomas in comparison to conventional imaging.
18F-L-Fluoro-DOPA PET/CT Scan Localization of Focal Pancreatic Lesions in Subjects With Hyperinsulinemic...
Congenital HyperinsulinismBeckwith-Wiedemann Syndrome1 moreThis purpose of this study is to determine the ability of an 18F-fluoro-L-dihydroxyphenylalanine (18F-DOPA) PET scan to detect a focal lesion of hyperinsulinism and determine the location in patients with congenital hyperinsulinism, Beckwith Wiedemann Syndrome and suspected insulinoma. Safety data will be collected.
Hypoglycemia in Hospitalized Patients
DiabetesHypoglycemiaPatients with diabetes who develop low blood sugars (hypoglycemia) in the hospital are at risk for losing the ability to develop symptoms that warn them that they are having a low blood sugar. There is almost no available information investigating how the inability to feel symptoms of a low blood sugar contributes to the risk of this happening when people with diabetes are hospitalized. The purpose of this study is to develop a symptom score model that will help to identify patients at risk for low blood sugars in the hospital and to examine what happens to patients who do experience a low blood sugar in the hospital.
