It’s time to back off from the fear-mongering around severe hypoglycaemia, according to Children's Diabetes Centre researchers who point to increasing evidence that improved glycaemic control in children with type 1 diabetes is not associated with increasing rates of hypoglycaemia.

Participants are needed for a new study that will test the performance of a new Medtronic sensor with readings from finger-pricks.

Eleven-year-old twins Grace and Lilyana Musca had never spent time in hospital when they decided to organise a pyjama day at Hocking Primary School to raise money for sick children earlier this year.

Take a look at some of the published research to come out of the Children's Diabetes Centre recently.

DACS – Diabetes Ambulatory Care Service – is a new model of care at Perth Children’s Hospital for children newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes.

To determine the efficacy of advanced hybrid closed-loop therapy in a high-risk cohort of youth on continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion with or without continuous glucose monitoring with suboptimal glycemia.

Glycemia risk index (GRI) is a novel composite metric assessing overall glycemic risk, accounting for both hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia and weighted toward extremes. Data assessing GRI as an outcome measure in closed-loop studies and its relation with conventional key continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) metrics are limited.

Given limited data regarding the involvement of disadvantaged groups in paediatric diabetes clinical trials, this study aimed to evaluate the socioeconomic representativeness of participants recruited into a multinational clinical trial in relation to regional and national type 1 diabetes reference populations.
