To determine the impact of the t:slim X2 insulin pump with Control-IQ technology on the quality of life and glycemic control in youth with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and their parents in a real-world setting. Research Design and Methods. We conducted a single-center, prospective study on pediatric patients (6–18 years old) with T1D using a Tandem t:slim X2 pump and initiating Control-IQ technology as part of routine care. Youth (≥8 years) and parents completed validated patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) at baseline and the end of the study (16 weeks). Glycemic control measures were recorded at baseline and every 4 weeks until the end of the study. Results. Fifty-nine youth participated; the median (IQR) age was 13.8 (11.1, 15.7) years, and T1D duration was 6.3 (3.1, 8.4) years.

However, whether this differential strength of association also applies to adolescents with type 1 diabetes (T1D) is unknown. Therefore, this study aimed to examine whether IMT increases in extracarotid arteries (specifically in the lower extremities) prior to the carotid artery. In total, 286 adolescents with T1D (15.9 ± 4.9 years; 42.0% male participants) were enrolled, and the B-mode ultrasonographic measurement of IMT in the carotid, femoral, and popliteal arteries was performed. Cardiovascular risk factors, including blood pressure (BP), body mass index, lipid levels, and glycemic parameters, were evaluated. To evaluate the site-dependent relationship between IMT and cardiovascular risk factors, a linear mixed-effects model was developed with repeated IMT measurements at various arterial sites as fixed effects and participants as random effects. Glycemic parameters, lipids, uric acid, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, and advanced glycation end-products were some cardiovascular risk factors that worsened with increasing HbA1c levels. Patients with a higher HbA1c level (>10% vs. ≤10%) had thicker IMT in the femoral artery but not in the carotid or popliteal arteries. Patients with poorer diabetic control exhibited significant changes in certain cardiovascular functions, including central systolic BP, left ventricular (LV) ejection time, LV dp/dt max, stroke volume, and brachial artery compliance. A standard mediation analysis revealed that none of the aforementioned cardiovascular functions mediated the relationship between higher HbA1c level and greater femoral IMT. In adolescents with T1D, cardiovascular risk factors deteriorate with worsening blood glucose control. In the early stages of T1D, femoral IMT may serve as a more sensitive surrogate marker for hyperglycemia-induced subclinical atherosclerosis, an effect that may not be mediated by alterations in cardiovascular functions.</p>","PeriodicalId":19797,"journal":{"name":"Pediatric Diabetes","volume":" ","pages":"6471597"},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2023-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12017205/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47987945","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While survey-based assessments of young adults with T1D observed similar trends, these studies were limited by their use of subjective assessments of MVPA and sedentary behavior. The use of direct activity monitoring is needed to establish the association between psychosocial outcomes and MVPA and sedentary behavior among adolescents with T1D.</p><p><strong>Objective: </strong>To explore the association between objectively measured MVPA and sedentary behavior on psychosocial outcomes among adolescents with T1D.</p><p><strong>Subjects and methods: </strong>The current study is a secondary analysis of baseline data collected for a pilot trial of sleep-promoting intervention for adolescents with T1D. Participants (<i>n</i> = 29, with a mean age of 15.9 ± 1.3 years) completed baseline surveys and wore an actigraph for a week following the baseline visit. We examined minutes per week of MVPA and proportion of awake time spent sedentary in relation to adolescents' diabetes distress, depressive symptoms, and diabetes-related quality of life.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Participants engaged in a mean of 19.6 ± 22.4 minutes of MVPA per day and spent 68.6 ± 9.9% of their awake time sedentary. MVPA was associated with lower diabetes distress in unadjusted (-3.6; 95% CI: -6.4 to -0.8) and adjusted (-2.6; 95% CI: -5.0--0.3) analyses. Sedentary time was associated with higher diabetes distress in adjusted (6.3; 95% CI: 1.3-11.2) but not unadjusted (6.0; 95% CI: -5.6-12.6) analyses. In secondary analyses, we did not observe significant associations between quality of life or depressive symptoms with either MVPA or sedentary behavior.</p><p><strong>Discussion: </strong>Our findings extend previous survey-based work demonstrating an association between decreased diabetes distress with greater weekly MVPA and lower sedentary time. The current study highlights the multifaceted benefits of physical activity in this population and provides preliminary evidence for developing interventions to reduce sedentary time as an alternative method to improve psychosocial outcomes in this at-risk population.</p>","PeriodicalId":19797,"journal":{"name":"Pediatric Diabetes","volume":"2023 ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10445792/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10458644","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
