Type 1 Diabetes

A lifelong auto-immune condition that can affect anyone, but is most commonly diagnosed in childhood.

Additional Insulin is Required in Both the Early and Late Postprandial Periods for Meals High in Protein and Fat: A Randomised Trial

The pattern and quantity of insulin required for high protein high fat (HPHF) meals is not well understood. This study aimed to determine the amount and delivery pattern of insulin required to maintain euglycaemia for five hours after consuming a HPHF meal compared to a low protein low fat (LPLF) meal.

Psychological flexibility is associated with less diabetes distress and lower glycated haemoglobin in adults with type 1 diabetes

Diabetes distress, self-efficacy and health literacy are associated with diabetes self-management and health outcomes. Measures of coping styles and their impact on diabetes self-management and diabetes-related distress may add value in identifying those at risk of poorer health outcomes. Current evidence of associations between psychological flexibility/inflexibility and diabetes related health outcomes is limited.

Effect of 6 months of hybrid closed-loop insulin delivery in adults with type 1 diabetes: A randomised controlled trial protocol

Determine the effectiveness of 6 months' closed-loop compared with manually determined insulin dosing on time-in-target glucose range in adults with type 1 diabetes

The glycaemic benefits of a very-low-carbohydrate ketogenic diet in adults with Type 1 diabetes mellitus may be opposed by increased hypoglycaemia risk and dyslipidaemia

This study provides the first evidence that, ketogenic diets in adults with Type 1 diabetes are associated with excellent HbA1c levels and little glycaemic variability

ACE inhibitors and statins in adolescents with type 1 diabetes

We hypothesized that adolescents with high levels of albumin excretion might benefit from ACE inhibitors and statins, drugs that have not been fully evaluated

Home-based vs inpatient education for children newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes

With adequate support, children newly diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes can be safely managed at home following practical skills training

A 10-second sprint does not blunt hormonal counter-regulation to subsequent hypoglycaemia

A 10-second sprint is unlikely to blunt the subsequent hormonal counter-regulation to hypoglycaemia in individuals with Type 1 diabetes

Effect of obesity on neonatal hypoglycaemia in mothers with gestational diabetes: A comparative study

To determine the influence of obesity on neonatal hypoglycaemia among infants born to gestational diabetes mellitus mothers.

Incidence of and risk factors for hospitalisations due to vascular complications: A population-based type 1 diabetes cohort (n=1316) followed into early adulthood

Determining the incidence of hospitalisations and risk factors for vascular complications experienced during early adulthood in patients with childhood T1D
