Abstract
Background: To evaluate the glycemia risk index (GRI) as a new glucometry in pediatric and adult populations with type 1 diabetes (T1D) in clinical practice.
Methods: A cross-sectional study of 202 patients with T1D receiving intensive treatment with insulin (25.2% continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion [CSII]) and intermittent scanning (flash) glucose monitoring (isCGM). Clinical and glucometric isCGM data were collected, as well as the component of hypoglycemia (CHypo) and component of hyperglycemia (CHyper) of the GRI.
Results: A total of 202 patients (53% males and 67.8% adults) with a mean age of 28.6 ± 15.7 years and 12.5 ± 10.9 years of T1D evolution were evaluated.Adult patients (>19 years) presented higher glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) (7.4 ± 1.1 vs 6.7 ± 0.6%; P < .01) and lower time in range (TIR) (55.4 ± 17.5 vs 66.5 ± 13.1%; P < .01) values than the pediatric population, with lower coefficient of variation (CV) (38.6 ± 7.2 vs 42.4 ± 8.9%; P < .05). The GRI was significantly lower in pediatric patients (48.0 ± 22.2 vs 56.8 ± 23.4; P < .05) associated with higher CHypo (7.1 ± 5.1 vs 5.0 ± 4.5; P < .01) and lower CHyper (16.8 ± 9.8 vs 26.5 ± 15.1; P < .01) than in adults.When analyzing treatment with CSII compared with multiple doses of insulin (MDI), a nonsignificant trend to a lower GRI was observed in CSII (51.0 ± 15.3 vs 55.0 ± 25.4; P= .162), with higher levels of CHypo (6.5 ± 4.1 vs 5.4 ± 5.0; P < .01) and lower CHyper (19.6 ± 10.6 vs 24.6 ± 15.2; P < .05) compared with MDI.
Conclusions: In pediatric patients and in those with CSII treatment, despite a better control by classical and GRI parameters, higher overall CHypo was observed than in adults and MDI, respectively. The present study supports the usefulness of the GRI as a new glucometric parameter to evaluate the global risk of hypoglycemia-hyperglycemia in both pediatric and adult patients with T1D.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Diabetes Science and Technology (JDST) is a bi-monthly, peer-reviewed scientific journal published by the Diabetes Technology Society. JDST covers scientific and clinical aspects of diabetes technology including glucose monitoring, insulin and metabolic peptide delivery, the artificial pancreas, digital health, precision medicine, social media, cybersecurity, software for modeling, physiologic monitoring, technology for managing obesity, and diagnostic tests of glycation. The journal also covers the development and use of mobile applications and wireless communication, as well as bioengineered tools such as MEMS, new biomaterials, and nanotechnology to develop new sensors. Articles in JDST cover both basic research and clinical applications of technologies being developed to help people with diabetes.
