One of the essential qualities of a great athlete is a <i>belief in his or her own ability</i>. Boström <i>et al.</i> study the extent wherein diabetes nurses in Sweden perceive their professional role in diabetes care. Olsen <i>et al</i>. present their findings on the perceived knowledge of diabetes among personnel practising in municipal care. The object of athletes should be <i>to perform to the best of their ability</i>. Thabit <i>et al</i>. describe the individual components of the artificial pancreas and aim to highlight existing clinical evidence from studies performed on available artificial pancreas prototypes. Most athletes <i>perform better in front of a crowd</i>. Jutterström <i>et al</i>. throw light on turning points in self-management described by people with type 2 diabetes. <i>Every athlete has to struggle against difficulties such as injuries and defeats</i>. Peter Schwarz briefly describes how the message of IMAGE gets translated to clinical practice and invites you to register for free on the international network ‘Who is active in diabetes prevention’. <i>The Olympic spirit is shown when spectators applaud all the competitors, not just the winners</i>. To this end we should all give ourselves a pat on the back for the hard work and dedication we commit to diabetes care.</p><p>One important difference, however, is that most Olympic athletes take part once every four years, while people with diabetes and health care professionals participate every day.</p><p>Both Gillian Hood and I have decided to retire as Co-editors of <i>EDN</i>.

Consequently, intensive insulin treatment has been advocated in the attempt to achieve normal glycaemia. This has proven challenging mainly due to an increased risk of hypoglycaemia associated with the intensive insulin regimen. Closed-loop systems for glucose control, designed to mimic the endocrine action of the healthy pancreas without human intervention, may provide a solution.The vital component of a closed-loop system, often referred to as an artificial pancreas, is a computer-based algorithm. Other components include a real-time continuous glucose monitor and an infusion pump to titrate and deliver insulin. The role of the control algorithm is to translate, in real-time, the information it receives from the glucose monitor and to compute the amount of insulin to be delivered by the pump.This review article describes the individual components of the ...","PeriodicalId":100496,"journal":{"name":"European Diabetes Nursing","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73652170","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
