Abstract
The case report shows the safety and efficacy of insulin treatment with Advanced Hybrid Closed Loop (AHCL) system in a young patient affected by permanent neonatal diabetes mellitus (PNDM) due to chromosome 8 deletion syndrome involving the GATA4 gene. In the first days of life, he presented hyperglycaemia and started an intravenous insulin infusion therapy, replaced by a continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) with Medtronic Minimed 780G® insulin pump (Medtronic, Northridge, CA, USA). At the age of 2 years, the off-label activation of SmartGuard® automated insulin delivery mode led to a great improvement in glycaemic control, reaching all recommended targets. At the 1-month follow-up visit, Time in Range (TIR) increased from 66% to 79%, with a Time in Tight Range (TTIR) of 55% and a reduction of 11% in time in hyperglycaemia and of 2% in time in hypoglycaemia. During the entire follow-up, no episodes of ketoacidosis or severe hypoglycaemia were observed and the patient maintained the glycaemic recommended targets reached at 1 month. Maintaining optimal glycaemic control and reducing hyperglycaemia are essential for brain growth and neurocognitive development in young patients. AHCL use should be considered to ensure good glycaemic control in patients affected by neonatal diabetes.
期刊介绍:
Children is an international, open access journal dedicated to a streamlined, yet scientifically rigorous, dissemination of peer-reviewed science related to childhood health and disease in developed and developing countries.
The publication focuses on sharing clinical, epidemiological and translational science relevant to children’s health. Moreover, the primary goals of the publication are to highlight under‑represented pediatric disciplines, to emphasize interdisciplinary research and to disseminate advances in knowledge in global child health. In addition to original research, the journal publishes expert editorials and commentaries, clinical case reports, and insightful communications reflecting the latest developments in pediatric medicine. By publishing meritorious articles as soon as the editorial review process is completed, rather than at predefined intervals, Children also permits rapid open access sharing of new information, allowing us to reach the broadest audience in the most expedient fashion.
