AbstractType 1 diabetes (T1D) is one of the most prevalent autoimmune diseases among children in Western countries. Earlier metabolomics studies suggest that T1D is preceded by dysregulation of lipid metabolism. Here we used a lipidomics approach to analyze molecular lipids in a prospective series of 428 plasma samples from 40 children who progressed to T1D (PT1D), 40 children who developed at least a single islet autoantibody but did not progress to T1D during the follow-up (P1Ab) and 40 matched controls (CTR). Sphingomyelins were found to be persistently downregulated in PT1D when compared to the P1Ab and CTR groups. Triacylglycerols and phosphatidylcholines were mainly downregulated in PT1D as compared to P1Ab at the age of 3 months. Our study suggests that children who progressed to islet autoimmunity or overt T1D are characterized by distinct lipidomic signatures, which may be helpful in the identification of at-risk children before the initiation of autoimmunity.

Abstract Objective ECL assays are high-affinity autoantibody (Ab) tests that are more specific than Abs detected by traditional radiobinding assays (RBA) for risk screening and prediction of progression to type 1 diabetes. We sought to characterize the association of high-risk HLA haplotypes and genotypes with electrochemiluminescence (ECL) positivity and levels in relatives of individuals with type 1 diabetes. Methods We analyzed 602 participants from the TrialNet Pathway to Prevention Study who were positive for at least one RBA diabetes related Ab (GADA or IAA) and for whom ECL and HLA data were available. ECL and RBA Ab levels were converted to SD units away from mean (Z-scores) for analyses. Results Mean age at initial visit was 19.4+13.7 years; 344 (57.1%) were female and 104 (17.3%) carried the high-risk HLA- DR3/4*0302 genotype. At initial visit 424/602 (70.4%) participants were positive for either ECL-GADA or ECL-IAA, and 178/602 (29.6%) were ECL negative. ECL and RBA-GADA positivity were associated with both HLA-DR3 and DR4 haplotypes (all p<0.05), while ECL and RBA-GADA z-score titers were higher in participants with HLA-DR3 haplotypes only (both p<0.001). ECL-IAA (but not RBA-IAA) positivity was associated with the HLA-DR4 haplotype (p<0.05). Conclusions ECL-GADA positivity is associated with the HLA-DR3 and HLA-DR4 haplotypes and levels are associated with the HLA-DR3 haplotype. ECL-IAA positivity is associated with HLA-DR4 haplotype. These studies further contribute to the understanding of genetic risk and islet autoimmunity endotypes in type 1 diabetes.

ABSTRACT Background High dietary intake of nitrate and nitrite might increase the risk of type 1 diabetes. To our knowledge, no earlier prospective study has explored whether maternal dietary intake of nitrate and nitrite during pregnancy is associated with the risk of type 1 diabetes in the offspring. Objective Our aim was to study association between maternal intake of nitrate and nitrite during pregnancy and the risk of islet autoimmunity and type 1 diabetes in the offspring. Design Children born between 1997 and 2004 at Oulu and Tampere University Hospitals in Finland and carrying increased human leukocyte antigen (HLA)–conferred risk for type 1 diabetes were followed in the Type 1 Diabetes Prediction and Prevention (DIPP) study from 3 mo of age. Islet autoantibodies were screened at 3- to 12-mo intervals from serum samples. Of 4879 children, 312 developed islet autoimmunity and 178 developed type 1 diabetes during a 15-y follow-up. Maternal intake of nitrate and nitrite during the eighth month of pregnancy was assessed after birth using a validated self-administered FFQ. Cox proportional hazards regression was used for the statistical analyses. Results Maternal intake of nitrate and nitrite during pregnancy was not associated with the child's risk of islet autoimmunity [nitrate: HR 0.99 (95% CI: 0.88, 1.11); nitrite: HR 1.03 (95% CI: 0.92, 1.15)] or type 1 diabetes [nitrate: HR 1.02 (95% CI: 0.88, 1.17); nitrite: HR 0.97 (95% CI: 0.83, 1.12)] when adjusted for energy (residual method), sex, HLA risk group, and family history of diabetes. Further adjustment for dietary antioxidants (vitamin C, vitamin E, and selenium) did not change the results. Conclusion Maternal dietary intake of nitrate or nitrite during pregnancy is not associated with the risk of islet autoimmunity or type 1 diabetes in the offspring genetically at risk for type 1 diabetes.

Introduction. Long-term and high-quality glycemic control prevents the development of vascular complications of diabetes type 1 and improves the disease prognosis, significantly increasing life expectancy. A decrease in the quality of life (QOL) of patients with diabetes type 1 is associated with the disease complications development and carbohydrate metabolism status. In connection with the proven advantages of using indicators of time spent in glycemic ranges (TIR, TAR, TBR), the study of their associations with QOL in patients with type 1 diabetes when switching from long-acting analog insulins to insulin degludec is of particular interest.Aims. To assess the quality of life with diabetes type 1 when switching from long-acting analogs to insulin degludec in real world clinical practice.Materials and methods. The study was designed as a prospective, single-center, uncontrolled study. The recruitment of patients with diabetes type 1 who did not achieve the target values of control of carbohydrate metabolism control, who were on therapy with long-acting and ultrashort-acting analog insulin therapy, was carried out in accordance with the matching criteria. The calculation of TIR and TBR was carried out employing the data from professional continuous monitoring of glucose levels and selfmonitoring of blood glucose levels. The SF-36 Health Status Survey was used to assess QoL.Results. The study included 26 patients who met the inclusion criteria and did not have the exclusion criteria. The relationships between TIR, TBR and QoL parameters during insulin degludec therapy were revealed - with vitality, bodily pain, mental health, which demonstrates an increase in QoL mainly due to the mental component of health.Conclusions. Switching patients with type 1 diabetes from long-acting analog insulins to ultra-long-acting analog insulin on an outpatient basis provides an improvement in glycemic control due to HbA1c and TIR, TBR, and also increases QOL satisfaction, mainly due to the mental component of health.
