AbstractThe aim of this study was to assess dietary intake, nutritional status, body composition, and physical activity level in a group of Chilean children and adolescents with Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), compare these parameters with the recommendations of the International Society for Pediatric and Adolescent Diabetes (ISPAD), and determine the relationships between dietary intake, body composition, and diabetes control.A total of 30 patients with T1DM (aged 15.2±4.0 years) were included. Dietary intake was assessed using a 92-item quantitative food frequency questionnaire. Body composition was determined using dual-energy X-ray densitometry. Physical activity was assessed by means of a survey.The energy intake of these patients was derived from 21.4% protein, 48% carbohydrates, and 31.2% fat. The glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) was significantly correlated with fat as grams per day (r: 0.363, p<0.05) and calories per day (r: 0.364, p<0.05). The mean body fat percentage in females was 31.2% and 20.2% in males (p < 0.01) and the mean amount of physical activity was 4.5±2.7 h per week.The study patients had a higher protein intake than recommended by ISPAD. Dietary carbohydrate intake was rather low, and dietary fat intake was the same as the limits recommended by ISPAD. Diabetic control was significantly correlated with protein, carbohydrates, fat, and sodium intake. The girls in the study had a higher percentage of body fat than the standard recommendations for their age. The level of physical activity was adequate.

AbstractChildren with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) have low physical activity levels and are at high risk for psychosocial morbidities, including depression, heightened anxiety and low health-related quality of life (HRQoL).The aim of this study was to assess the associations of physical activity level with depression, anxiety, and HRQoL in children with T1DM.A cross-sectional study design, including children with T1DM aged between 8 and 12 years and healthy controls, was used. Physical activity (PA) level was assessed with the Physical Activity Questionnaire for Older Children (PAQ-C). Anxiety was screened by The Screen for Anxiety Related Emotional Disorders (SCARED) questionnaire. Depressive symptoms were evaluated using the Children’s Depression Inventory (CDI). Quality of life was assessed with the The Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory 4.0 (PedsQL 4.0).Forty-seven T1DM and 55 healthy children were included with mean ages of 9.87±1.63 and 9.56±1.60 years, respectively. The T1DM group had significantly higher depression and anxiety score (p<0.05) and lower HRQoL-child self-report score (p<0.05, for all) compared with the control group. Significant associations were found between PAQ-C and PedsQL 4.0 (p<0.05), between SCARED and PedsQL 4.0 (p<0.05), and between HbA1c and PedsQL 4.0 (p<0.05) in children with T1DM.The result of our study suggested that only HRQoL was related to physical activity, anxiety and HbA1c in children with T1DM.

BACKGROUND Telemedicine systems have been proven to be a successful tool for the supporting patients in diabetes mellitus selfmanagement. Despite this, a large percentage of patients do not use of all available functions of telemedicine systems. And this is one of the reasons, why patients do not meet the target compensation of their disease. This paper presents the current features of the Diani telemedicine system and the evaluation outcomes of its use. Dani has been designed to provide the patients with a comprehensive overview of their collected data including carbohydrate intake, insulin doses, physical activity level (steps) and blood glucose. OBJECTIVE The objective of the study was to evaluate the benefits of the Diani telemedicine system for the treatment of type 1 diabetes patient. The obtained suggestions will lead to further verification and development of the system in order to better compensate for diabetes mellitus. METHODS Data were obtained on the basis of a 24-week, randomized, crossover, intervention study. Patients responded to the standardized WHOQOL-BREF quality of life questionnaire and the system evaluation questionnaire. Both the level of glycated hemoglobin and the patient's weight were examined. The patient's usage of the telemedicine system was monitored and daily physical activity was measured. All data were being sent from the device to the Diani server using a real-time diabetic diary application. Wilcoxon and Friedman tests and LME method were used for data analysis. This study involved 10 patients (5 men and 5 women) who participated in the Diani system evaluation. The mean age of the participants was 47.7 ± 19.3 years; the mean duration of diabetes was 10.5 ± 8.6 years; and the mean HbA1c was 59.5 ± 6.7 mmol/mol. RESULTS The median number of days during which the patients tested the system was 84. After the intervention the mean HbA1c decreased by 4.35 mmol/mol (p = 0.011). Patients spent 18.6 ± 6.8 minutes on average using the application daily. After the Diani system intervention, the number of patients who measured their blood glucose at least 3 times a day increased by 30%. The graphical display of measured quantities, automatic transmission of measured data from the glucometer, compatibility and interconnection of individual devices when entering data were evaluated by patients in a positive way. CONCLUSIONS Diani system is beneficial for type 1 diabetes mellitus patients in terms of controlling their disease. Patients perceive it positively; it strengthens their education in the field of diabetes and understanding the influence of measured values on the compensation of their disease. Its use has a positive effect on the HbA1C level.

Background To investigate the relationship 25-hydroxy vitamin D (25OHD) level among children and in children with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). Methods A case–control study was conducted to compare the serum 25OHD levels between cases and controls. This study recruited 296 T1DM children (106 newly diagnosed T1DM patients and 190 established T1DM patients), and 295 age- and gender-matched healthy subjects as controls. Results The mean serum 25OHD in T1DM children was 48.69 ± 15.26 nmol/L and in the controls was 57.93 ± 19.03 nmol/L. The mean serum 25OHD in T1DM children was lower than that of controls (P < 0.01). The mean serum 25OHD level (50.42 ± 14.74 nmol/L) in the newly diagnosed T1DM children was higher than that (47.70 ± 15.50 nmol/L) in the established T1DM children but the difference was not statistically significant (P = 0.16). HbA1c values were associated with 25OHD levels in established T1DM children (r = 0.264, P < 0.01), and there was no association between 25OHD and HbA1c in newly diagnosed T1DM children (r = 0.164; P > 0.05). Conclusion Vitamin D deficiency is common in T1DM children, and it should be worthy of attention on the lack of vitamin D in established T1DM children.

Flash Glucose Monitoring

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of flash glucose monitoring on dietary variety, physical activity, and self-care behavior in patients with diabetes. This study included outpatients with diabetes using insulin who presented at the Department of Diabetes and Metabolism of the Ise Red Cross Hospital. Before initiating flash glucose monitoring and 12 weeks after its initiation, blood glucose-related parameters were assessed and self-administered questionnaires were completed (Dietary Variety Score (DVS), the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ), the Summary of Diabetes Self-Care Activities Measure (SDSCA), and the Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire (DTSQ)) and compared between the two time points. We analyzed 42 patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus and 48 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. In patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, but not type 1 diabetes mellitus, there was an increase in moderate/high category scores for IPAQ (P<0.001) and for treatment satisfaction reported via DTSQ. Furthermore, in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, the glycemic excursion index improved significantly and HbA1c decreased significantly (from 7.7 (1.2) to 7.4 (0.8), P=0.025). Results showed that standard deviation and mean amplitude of glycemic excursions significantly decreased in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (from 71.2 (20.4) to 66.2 (17.5), P=0.033 and from 124.6 (31.9) to 108.1 (28.4), P<0.001, respectively). Flash glucose monitoring is a useful tool to improve physical activity in patients with type 2 diabetes.
