The aim of this study is to assess the impact of a newly intensified digital platform following bariatric surgery. This will be measured using several questionnaires. The following objectives will be evaluated: the exact amount of weight loss achieved preoperatively with the preparatory diet; the occurrence of dumping symptoms; the assessment of quality of life (QOL); and compliance with supplement intake. By examining the impact of an enhanced digital platform, we aim to address critical questions regarding the effectiveness of improved patient support in the digital domain. Moreover, given the increasing prevalence of bariatric surgery as a therapeutic option for obesity, it is of utmost importance to identify strategies to optimize patient education and support through digital tools. This study not only contributes to the scientific understanding of digital support in bariatric care but also has important implications for the further development of the "Get Ready" application, ensuring that it remains at the forefront of providing comprehensive and patient-centered support in the evolving landscape of bariatric surgery.

A 13-week multi-center single-arm trial, preceded by a 2-week standard therapy phase, will be conducted to assess the safety of MODI, an insulin titration algorithm, in adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D) who use multiple daily insulin injections (MDI), or with type 2 diabetes (T2D) who use MDI, basal insulin only, or who are candidates to initiate basal insulin, in conjunction with continuous glucose monitoring (CGM).

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is the progressive damage to kidney function, associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases, such as stroke or myocardial infarct, particularly in the most severe stages of CKD, in which the patient requires dialysis. Several risk factors are reported for CKD, such as diabetes mellitus, obesity and hypertension. One of the most increasingly recognized risk factors is the fat tissue malfunction, known as adiposopathy. The accumulation of fat tissue around the organs in conditions of obesity or diabetes accelerates the production of pro-inflammatory factors that may worsen the kidney and heart damage. New antidiabetic medications, such as glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA), have proven beneficial effects on the kidney and heart due to several mechanisms, including anti-inflammatory actions and a potential action on the fat tissue. The aim of this study is to assess the link between adiposopathy and CKD, by investigating the changes in adiposopathy measures throughout treatment with GLP-1RA to a sample of patients with CKD.

The blood glucose fluctuates greatly in T1DM patients, especially in the middle and late stages of the disease, and carbohydrate (CHO) is the main determinant of postprandial glucose response (PGR). Based on the previous investigation to understand how nutritional habits affect blood glucose control, we will conduct dietary intervention studies in T1DM patients to explore whether the adjustment of dietary pattern is beneficial to blood glucose control, and further explore the relevant mechanism through the detection of related metabolic indicators.

This study seeks to address the multifaceted challenges posed by food disparities and their negative consequences on health outcomes, via a comprehensive community health intervention program. Study objectives include: 1. To describe the social-demographic and clinical factors associated with food insecurity in the hospitalized diabetic population. 2. To design, implement and evaluate a nutrition program targeting the hospitalized diabetic population. The investigators will prospectively randomize the target population into either a nutrition program (Intervention), or state-of-art standard of care (SOC) in a 4:1 ratio. Participants in the intervention group will be provided the following two resources in addition to SOC: 1) Enhanced access to nutritious food (twice daily meal delivery up to 90 days post-discharge) 2) Education at discharge and continuing outreach to enhance knowledge for better diet and food options. 3. To enhance community engagement and develop a systematic implementation plan for long-term roll-out of the nutrition program.

This study aims to compare inpatient glycemic control by measuring the percentage of time in the range of 70-180 mg/dl and the frequency of hypoglycemia between Dexcom G7 Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) and Point of Care (POC) Blood Glucose Testing in poorly controlled subjects with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus. The main question it aims to answer is: -Whether there is a difference between POC testing (standard of care) and Real-time CGM in glycemic control and hypoglycemic events during hospitalization:

The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effects of a ketogenic diet on the progression and control of type 1 diabetes in children with newly diagnosed diabetes. The main questions to answer are: * Does a ketogenic diet prolong the honeymoon period of type 1 diabetes? * Does a ketogenic diet improve diabetes control? * Is a ketogenic diet safe, acceptable and sustainable in children with newly diagnosed diabetes? * What are the microbiome, inflammatory and metabolic changes linking diet to β-cell function? Participants will receive a combination of free meals, groceries, micronutrient supplements, and intensive diet and diabetes education for 9 months. * Diabetes care devices will be connected for cloud-based data collection. * Bi-weekly data downloads and remote check-ins will assess dietary intake, satisfaction with diet and study procedures, and possible safety concerns. * During four study visits held at at baseline, 1, 5, and 9 months, an intravenous catheter (IV) will be placed for collection of 5 blood samples before and up to 2 hours after a liquid test meal (protein shake) to assess insulin response. A stool sample will also be collected to assess microbiome changes. * Children and their caregivers may be invited to participate in a semi-structured interview, and online questionnaires to assess their experience with the diet and diabetes care, general well-being and quality of life. * Children and their caregivers may be invited to participate in a follow-up visit to evaluate long-term effects after 24 months. Comparison will be made between a ketogenic vs standard diet.

Background: The management of type 1 diabetes (T1D) relies on exogenous insulin administration to compensate for the lack of endogenous insulin production. Optimal glycemic control, essential for preventing long-term complications, requires precise insulin dose adjustments based on carbohydrate intake. Functional insulin therapy (FIT) allows for flexibility in insulin dosing according to carbohydrate consumption, thereby reducing the dietary constraints previously imposed on patients. However, this approach requires increased attention to dietary intake. Individuals with T1D already have a heightened risk of developing eating disorders (EDs). We hypothesize that the dietary knowledge required for FIT may contribute to rigid eating behaviors, thereby increasing the risk of EDs. Objective: This prospective monocentric study aims to determine whether dietary knowledge related to FIT is associated with an increased risk of EDs in individuals with T1D. Methods: The primary outcome measure is the correlation between the Gluciquizz score (a validated tool assessing FIT knowledge) and the risk of EDs, evaluated using the DEPS-R questionnaire (a validated screening tool for ED risk in T1D patients). In addition to this quantitative analysis, a qualitative study will be conducted through semi-structured interviews to explore in greater depth the patients' experiences, their relationship with food, and their perceptions of FIT-related requirements. Perspectives: This study aims to improve the understanding of the impact of FIT on ED risk in T1D. The findings may help identify at-risk patient profiles and enhance therapeutic education and patient management by integrating ED risk considerations. The qualitative approach will provide further insight into patients' individual experiences, facilitating recommendations tailored to their specific needs.

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Medtronic 780G automated insulin delivery system in adult persons with type 1 diabetes and gastroparesis.

This trial intends to investigate the pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of insulin GZR33 (hereafter referred to as GZR33) and estimate its potency in comparison with insulin degludec.

Type 1 Diabetes is a chronic autoimmune disease. It results from autoimmune destruction of pancreatic Beta cells leading to absolute insulin insufficiency. The establishment of pluripotent like human stem cells derived from adipose tissue derived mesenchymal cell origin have introduced a new potential source for cell therapy in type 1 diabetic patients, especially in light of recent successes in producing glucose-sensitive insulin secreting cells and this will be the scope of this study. In the last decade, human clinical trials of introducing insulin producing stem cells from various origins were approved and conducted.

Predicting early onset neuropathy in people with type 1 diabetes

The intervention in this trial is intraocular islet transplantation. A single dose of 1000 - 3000 Islet Equivalents (IEQ)/kg recipient body weight (BW) will be infused into the anterior chamber of the eye through a self-sealing incision in the peripheral cornea. The procedure is projected to take approximately 20-30 minutes. Transplant recipients in this study will receive localized maintenance immunosuppression via topical application of eye-drops.

This study is to evaluate the food effect (FE) on the PK of 200 mg CX11 in healthy participants

The current study tests the hypothesis whether genetically modified Langerhans islet cells containing insulin-producing cells from a deceased organ donor can 1. be transplanted safely and 2. help to regain insulin production in individuals with type 1 diabetes without need in simultaneous treatment with immunosuppressive medicines. The study is an open, one-armed study where adult subjects with longstanding type 1 diabetes will receive transplantation of Langerhans islet cells (25 000 000-80 000 000) into forearm muscle. Both subjects receive active treatment. Safety is monitored with frquent follow-up visits over a year, including medical examinations, blood tests and MRI scans. Insluin producing cell function is monitored with blood samples and continuous glucose measurement. Main objective is to to investigate the safety of an intramuscular transplantation of genetically modified allogeneic human islets (study product UP421) in adult subjects diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. Secondary objectives are to study changes in beta-cell function, metabolic control and immunological response to pancreatic islets during the first year following treatment.

Despite strong evidence that tight control of blood sugar reduces the risk of diabetes complications, most people with type 1 diabetes do not achieve recommended blood sugar targets. This randomized controlled trial will test whether a very-low- carbohydrate ketogenic diet can effectively and safely improve blood sugar control in adults with type 1 diabetes.

The clinical implication of this study lies in the identification of factors that may predict reduced insulin sensitivity in children and adolescents at the onset of Type 1 Diabetes and would help the physician to undertake appropriate therapy more quickly by achieving the correct therapeutic dosage, in order to achieve good metabolic compensation at an early stage and thus reduce the time (and costs) of hospitalisation.

The investigators will measure blood levels of 1,5-anhydroglucitol in children with type 1 diabetes and correlate them with parameters related to functional beta-cell mass in diabetic patients. The values will be compared to those obtained in healthy volunteers. Children with newly diagnosed diabetes as well as children with longstanding disease will be included. The aim of the study is to test the validity of 1,5-anhydroglucitol as a novel biomarker of beta-cell mass and function in type 1 diabetes.
