Objectives: Given the critical role of linear growth and peak bone mass attainment in childhood and adolescence, this study sought to elucidate the effects of a low carbohydrate diet (LCD) versus a Mediterranean diet (MED) on bone turnover markers (BTM) in adolescents with type 1 diabetes (T1D).Methods: In an open-label, randomized controlled trial, 40 individuals with type 1 diabetes, aged 12-22 years, were randomly ass...

Background and aims: Achieving good glycemic control is a major challenge for adolescents with type 1 diabetes (TID). The introduction of the MiniMed 780G system, an advanced hybrid closed-loop (AHCL), that enables an automatic correction of insulin, gave hope for improved glycemic outcomes in adolescents. We assessed specific characteristics associated with glycemic measures in youth with T1D switching to Minimed 780G.Methods:</...

Background: Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is the most common neurobehavioral disorder of childhood. Type 1 diabetes (T1DM) is the most common metabolic disease in children. The treatment of T1DM requires high executive functions and requires very intensive treatment that could be an obstacle for patients with ADHD. Dual diagnosis of T1DM and ADHD might affect treatment, control and complications of T1DM. In order to prevent long-term complica...

Background: Monogenic obesity is a rare form of obesity caused by pathogenic variants in genes implicated in the leptin–melanocortin receptor (MC4R) signaling pathway. The MC4R pathway plays a crucial role in the regulation of satiety, energy balance, and body weight. Abnormalities in the leptin–melanocortin pathway are characterized by early weight gain, hyperphagia, and severe obesity.Objective: To investig...
