Diabetic Ketoacidosis in Type 1 Diabetes Onset in Latin American Children.

Objective: To describe the patterns of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) occurrence in children newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes (T1DM) across several Latin American pediatric diabetes centers from 2018 to 2022.

Methods: A retrospective chart review included children under 18 with new-onset T1DM from 30 Latin American pediatric diabetes centers (Argentina, Chile, and Peru) between 30 December 2018 and 30 December 2022. Multiple logistic regression models examined the relationships between age, gender, medical insurance, BMI, and DKA at new-onset T1DM.

Real-world performance of the MiniMed 780G advanced hybrid closed loop system in Latin America: Substantial improvement in glycaemic control with each technology iteration of the MiniMed automated insulin delivery system.

Aim: We studied real-world performance of MiniMed (MM) 780G system users from Argentina, Brazil, Colombia and Chile (geographical analysis), and the effect of each technology iteration of the MM system on glycaemic control (technology iteration analysis).

Materials And Methods: CareLink data from August 2020 to September 2022 were extracted. Endpoints included continuous glucose monitoring metrics.

Six-Month Glycemic Control with a Hybrid Closed-Loop System in Type 1 Diabetes Patients in a Latin American Country.

The goal of this study was to assess the 6-month effectiveness of hybrid closed loop on glycemic control in type 1 diabetes (T1D) patients in Latin America. An exploratory analysis of data prospectively collected from non-selected consecutive patients with T1D who initiated treatment with the MiniMed™ 670G system in Argentina was conducted. Baseline and follow-up visits at days 7, 28, 90, and 180 were carried out and data were downloaded at each visit.
