Aims. To determine whether multiple daily injections (MDIs) or continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) contributes to better glucose control in children with different type 1 diabetes duration.Methods. Subjects were grouped according to early (≤1 year after disease onset; 1A) or late (1–3 years after onset; 2A) MDIs/CSII treatment initiation. Corresponding control groups (1B, 2B) received insulin injections twice daily.Results. HbA1c levels were consistently lower in group 1A than in group 1B (6 months (T2): 7.37% versus 8.21%; 12 months (T3): 7.61% versus 8.41%; 24/36 months (T4/T5): 7.61% versus 8.72%; allP<0.05), but were lower in group 2A than in group 2B only at T2 (8.36% versus 9.19%;P=0.04). Levels were lower in group 1A than in group 2A when disease duration was matched (7.61% versus 8.49%;P<0.05). Logistic regression revealed no correlation between HbA1c level and MDIs/CSII therapy. HbA1c levels were only negatively related to insulin dosage.Conclusions. Blood glucose control was better in patients receiving MDIs/CSII than in those receiving conventional treatment. Early MDIs/CSII initiation resulted in prolonged maintenance of low HbA1c levels compared with late initiation. MDIs/CSII therapy should be combined with comprehensive management.

The aim of this study was to investigate the difference between multiple daily injections (MDI) and continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) in blood glucose control during the treatment of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) in children. under the nano-hydrogel delivery carrier. In order to improve the efficiency and therapeutic effect of the experiment, this paper adopts injectable nanomaterial-polymer composite hydrogel as drug delivery system to cooperate with insulin injection to improve the effective utilization of drugs. Eighty children diagnosed with T1DM by the department of Endocrinology, Genetics, and Metabolism of INNER MONGOLIA BAOGANG Hospital from October 2018 to December 2019 were selected as research subjects for this study. The children were randomly divided into MDI group (treated with MDI) and CSII group (treated with CSII), with 40 children in each group. The basic data of the children were compared, and changes in hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) at admission and 1, 2, and 3 months after treatment were detected. During the detection, the blood glucose level, therapeutic time of blood glucose normalization, and daily insulin dosage were recorded. The HbA1c and fasting blood glucose (FBG) were followed up three months after discharge, and incidences of hypoglycemia in the two groups were observed. The results showed that the mean value of HbA1c in the MDI group was higher than that in the CSII group (P < 0.05). Each patient was assessed for the number of times their blood sugar was allowed to dip below normal levels; patients with less hypoglycemia had a higher rate of blood sugar control. The control rates of blood glucose in the MDI and CSII groups were 19.21% and 23.50%, respectively. The CSII group showed significantly higher blood glucose rates than the MDI group (P < 0.05). The therapeutic time of blood glucose normalization in the MDI group was significantly longer than that in the CSII group (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the average daily insulin dosage between the MDI and CSII groups (P > 0.05), which indicated that CSII therapy had significant advantages in reducing blood glucose in children with T1DM.

Abstract Context: Elevated blood glucose levels occur frequently in the critically ill. Tight glucose control by intensive insulin treatment markedly improves clinical outcome. Objective and Design: This is a randomized controlled trial comparing blood glucose control by a laptop-based model predictive control algorithm with a variable sampling rate [enhanced model predictive control (eMPC); version 1.04.03] against a routine glucose management protocol (RMP) during the peri- and postoperative periods. Setting: The study was performed at the Department of Cardiac Surgery, University Hospital. Patients: A total of 60 elective cardiac surgery patients were included in the study. Interventions: Elective cardiac surgery and treatment with continuous insulin infusion (eMPC) or continuous insulin infusion combined with iv insulin boluses (RMP) to maintain euglycemia (target range 4.4–6.1 mmol/liter) were performed. There were 30 patients randomized for eMPC and 30 for RMP treatment. Blood glucose was measured in 1- to 4-h intervals as requested by each algorithm during surgery and postoperatively over 24 h. Main Outcome Measures: Mean blood glucose, percentage of time in target range, and hypoglycemia events were used. Results: Mean blood glucose was 6.2 ± 1.1 mmol/liter in the eMPC vs. 7.2 ± 1.1 mmol/liter in the RMP group (P &lt; 0.05); percentage of time in the target range was 60.4 ± 22.8% for the eMPC vs. 27.5 ± 16.2% for the RMP group (P &lt; 0.05). No severe hypoglycemia (blood glucose &lt; 2.9 mmol/liter) occurred during the study. Mean insulin infusion rate was 4.7 ± 3.3 IU/h in the eMPC vs. 2.6 ± 1.7 IU/h in the RMP group (P &lt; 0.05). Mean sampling interval was 1.5 ± 0.3 h in the eMPC vs. 2.1 ± 0.2 h in the RMP group (P &lt; 0.05). Conclusions: Compared with RMP, the eMPC algorithm was more effective and comparably safe in maintaining euglycemia in cardiac surgery patients.
