Fulminant type 1 diabetes (FT1D) is a rapid and more aggressive variant where people go from no diabetes to complete insulin deficiency within a few days. High glucose variability and hypoglycemia from day 1. https://t.co/W7BmGqPfdK @daphslgardner

A pilot study @mysgh shows that smartphone based activity tracking is associated with nocturnal hypoglycemia (NH) in #type1diabetes. We discuss the potential opportunities to reduce the burden of NH. @daphslgardner

5 reminders pre clinic:
I’m not claiming to be totally chill, but by changing how I see clinic and what it actually means in my life (a very small snapshot of a big picture, with people who are much kinder to me than I generally am to myself) I have noticed a big difference.

[Suresh Rama Chandran @drsureshrc]

Duration but not depth of nocturnal hypoglycemia affects sleep quality. NH <3.9(70) but not NH <3.0(54) affected sleep quality. A small study from @mysgh. Some similarities to @HypoResolve data at @ATTDconf #attd2023, but more unanswered questions remain.

Skin reactions to sensor wear is 3-4X higher in tropical Singapore compared to rates reported from temperate climates. Data from Singapore General Hospital @mysgh presented at @ATTDconf 2023. #ATTD2023 @daphslgardner #Singapore

Could insulin pump therapy be the correct choice for you? https://t.co/bdN2hDfzky

Our collaborator @daphslgardner identified a novel protein truncating variant (p.Tyr186X) in PAX4 in a Singaporean family with early onset diabetes. While we don’t think this variant causes monogenic diabetes, carriers of the risk allele also have reduced beta cell function. 4/

@Gabrielng76 Hi Gabriel best not to pop your details on this platform. For medical insurer letters, they usually require a formal medical report which needs to go through medical records office. And I will also issue a copy of results for the last 1-2y…

An exciting development in diabetes technology!
