Use of continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) in adults with type 1 diabetes has become increasingly popular in recent years, with recent studies examining the efficacy of CSII use in pregnancy and in type 2 diabetes. However, there is very limited information on the benefit of CSII in older patients with type 1 diabetes. Electronic medical records were retrospectively analyzed for patients with type 1 diabetes undertaking structured patient education and initiated on CSII or multiple daily injections (MDI) between 2000 and 2016. Outcomes examined related to changes in glycemic parameters and weight and utilization of healthcare resources. Data relating to 293 patients fulfilled the inclusion criteria, with up to 10 years of follow-up data available. For patients commencing CSII, glycemic and weight outcomes and utilization of healthcare resources were similar in older compared with younger patients. For older patients, use of CSII was associated with better glycemic outcomes at the cost of a small increase in healthcare resources compared with MDI. CSII can be used effectively and safely in the longer term in carefully selected older patients with type 1 diabetes, with similar outcomes as observed in younger patients using CSII, and potentially better glycemic outcomes than MDI in older patients.

Background: We investigated circulating protein profiles and molecular pathways among various chronic kidney disease (CKD) etiologies to study its underlying molecular heterogeneity.
Methods: We conducted a proteomic biomarker analysis in the DAPA-CKD trial recruiting adults with and without type 2 diabetes with an eGFR of 25 to 75 mL/min/1.73m2 and a UACR of 200 to 5000 mg/g.

Importance: The cardiovascular benefits of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) may vary by body mass index (BMI), but evidence on BMI-specific outcomes remains limited.
Objective: To investigate the associations of GLP-1 RA use with cardiovascular and kidney outcomes across BMI categories in patients with type 2 diabetes.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This retrospective cohort study used the Chang Gung Research Database, a clinical dataset covering multiple hospitals in Taiwan.

Importance: Youth living with type 1 diabetes (T1D) are increasingly choosing automated insulin delivery (AID) systems to manage their blood glucose. Few systematic reviews meta-analyzing results from randomized clinical trials (RCTs) are available to guide decision-making.
Objective: To study the association of prolonged AID system use in an outpatient setting with measures of glucose management and quality of life in youth with T1D.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly applied in nutrition science to support clinical decision-making, prevent diet-related diseases such as obesity and type 2 diabetes, and improve nutrition care in both preventive and therapeutic settings. By analyzing diverse datasets, AI systems can support highly individualized nutritional guidance. We focus on machine learning applications and image recognition tools for dietary assessment and meal planning, highlighting their potential to enhance patient engagement and adherence through mobile apps and real-time feedback.

To date, the closed-loop system represents the best commercialized management of type 1 diabetes. However, mealtimes still require carbohydrate estimation and are often associated with postprandial hyperglycemia which may contribute to poor metabolic control and long -term complications. A multicentre, prospective, non-interventional clinical trial was designed to determine the effectiveness of a novel algorithm to predict changes in blood glucose levels two hours after a usual meal.
