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.

This observational study assessed metabolic control in young, active professionals with type 1 diabetes treated with continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) with or without the use of a bolus calculator. Eighteen patients aged 19 − 51 years with diabetes duration of 6 − 22 years were included; eight patients used a bolus calculator and 10 did not. Metabolic control was assessed by glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) measurements and blood glucose profiles. A continuous glucose monitoring system (CGMS) was also used by three patients from each group. Mean HbA1c and fasting blood glucose levels were not significantly different between the two groups, but mean post-prandial blood glucose was significantly lower in bolus calculator users than non-users. The CGMS showed more blood glucose levels within the target range in bolus calculator users than non-users, but statistical significance was not achieved. In conclusion, a bolus calculator may help to improve post-prandial blood glucose levels in active professional type 1 diabetes patients treated with CSII, but does not have a major impact on HbA1c levels.

<b><i>Objective:</i></b> The objective of this study was to assess the effects of continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) therapy on glycaemic control and acute complications in children, adolescents, and young adults with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). <b><i>Methods:</i></b> The prospective observational study was done in patients on multiple daily injection (MDI) switching to pump system. All patients were followed at the Paediatric Diabetes Clinic at BIRDEM Hospital. They were trained on carbohydrates counting and started on continuous basal insulin infusion in addition to meal and high blood glucose correction insulin boluses. They were followed on insulin pump therapy for a 6-month period. <b><i>Results:</i></b> Twenty patients were analysed, from baseline to visit 2 after 6 months. The patients included in the study had T1DM for a mean duration of 4.7 ± 3.1 years. The age ranged from 3 to 25 years (mean 13.7 ± 6.1). There was 1% reduction in haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) after 6 months, though it did not reach the statistical significance (<i>p</i> = 0.084). There was significant reduction of mean fasting blood glucose level 13.4 ± 7.0 versus 6.9 ± 1.6 mmol/L (<i>p</i> = 0.001), total insulin requirement (<i>p</i> = 0.043), frequency of hypoglycaemic episodes (<i>p</i> = 0.006), and diabetic ketoacidosis (<i>p</i> = 0.002) events during CSII therapy. <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> In our study, we found that switching young T1DM patients from MDI to insulin pump had been effective with achievement of a reduction in fasting blood glucose, HbA1c, and acute complications.
