INTRODUCTION: In adults, sodium-glucose cotransporter type 2 inhibitors have revolutionised the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus, heart failure, and chronic kidney disease. OBJECTIVE: We aimed to review information on compassionate use, clinical pharmacology, efficacy, and safety of dapagliflozin and empagliflozin in children. METHODS: We conducted a systematic review of published clinical trials, case reports, and observational studies in Medline, Excerpta Medica, and Web of Science databases from inception to September 2023...

INTRODUCTION: Among youth with type 1 diabetes (T1D), longitudinal poor glycemic control is associated with adverse socioeconomic conditions at the neighborhood level. Child Opportunity Index (COI), which encompasses measures of education, health, environment, social, and economic factors, is associated with obesity in youth but has not been evaluated in youth with new-onset T1D or type 2 diabetes (T2D). We hypothesized that lower COI would be associated with adverse clinical outcomes at diabetes diagnosis, and due to differing risk factors and pathophysiology, that youth with new-onset T2D would have lower COI than youth with T1D...

OBJECTIVES: The aim of our study was to investigate the changes in thyroid hormone levels during and after acute metabolic disorder in patients with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). METHODS: Eighty five patients diagnosed with DKA were included in the study. Patients with control thyroid function test (TFT) values at admission (the first blood sample) and 1 month later were included in the study. Thyroid function tests obtained during diabetic ketoacidosis and at the first month follow-up were compared...

The quality of a mother's diet is important to ensure child growth and development and keep women healthy. This systematic review aimed to identify the outcomes of a carbohydrate-restricted diet during lactation. PubMed, EMBASE, Scopus, Web of Science, and LILACS were searched for studies published between 2012 and 2023; 16 studies were selected, all of them case reports or care series. The carbohydrate restriction described in the papers mainly was ketogenic, low-carb, low-carbohydrate and high-fat, and modified ketogenic diets...

OBJECTIVES: Our objectives were to characterize variations from standardized, evidence-based guidelines in the management of pediatric patients with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) based on initial presentation to a tertiary pediatric emergency department (PED) versus a community emergency department (OSH) and compare clinical outcomes.

OBJECTIVES: Racial and ethnic disparities in healthcare delivery for acutely ill children are pervasive in the United States; it is unknown whether differential critical care utilization exists. DESIGN: Retrospective study of the Pediatric Health Information System (PHIS) database. SETTING: Multicenter database of academic children's hospitals in the United States. PATIENTS: Children discharged from a PHIS hospital in 2019 with one of the top ten medical conditions where PICU utilization was present in greater than or equal to 5% of hospitalizations...

AIMS: In view of the imminent introduction of a novel category of disease-modifying treatments for type 1 diabetes (T1D) in European countries, it becomes imperative to understand the existing awareness and viewpoints of parents and caregivers of children and adolescents predisposed to T1D. This study aims to evaluate the perspectives of a cohort of parents and caregivers regarding using teplizumab to delay the onset of T1D in predisposed children and adolescents. METHODS: This single-center study used a survey-based approach...

BACKGROUND: This study compared the effectiveness of the traditional and revised one-bag protocols for pediatric diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) management. METHODS: This single-center retrospective cohort study included children diagnosed with DKA upon admission between 2012 and 2019. Our institution reevaluated and streamlined the traditional one-bag protocol (revised one-bag protocol). The revised one-bag protocol rehydrated all pediatric DKA patients with dextrose (5 g/100 ml) containing 0...

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE: Neonatal diabetes is a monogenic type of diabetes mellitus. It arises at the first 6 months of age and can be classified as permanent or transient. There are limited cases of neonates with DKA who have heterozygous mutations in INS and PKHD1 genes, especially in Saudi Arabia. We present a case of neonatal diabetes with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) born to consanguineous parents in Saudi Arabia. This study aims to highlight the importance of the genetic mutations associated with neonatal diabetes and identify the clinical manifestation features of neonatal diabetes...

BACKGROUND: The COVID-19 pandemic has affected children and adolescents in several ways, including worsened mental health, improvement of asthma, and increases in diabetes ketoacidosis. Less is known about how medication use in children and adolescents has been affected by the pandemic. OBJECTIVES: To explore how the COVID-19 pandemic affected drug utilisation in children and adolescents in Norway, Sweden, and Italy, by child age. METHODS: We conducted a longitudinal drug utilisation study among all children and adolescents (<18 years old) in Norway and Sweden and a nationwide paediatric database covering 3% of the paediatric population in Italy...

BACKGROUND: Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been a notable increase in the incidence of new-onset diabetes and diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). Simultaneously, children diagnosed with type 1 diabetes (T1D) have encountered difficulties in maintaining optimal blood glucose levels. The mechanisms underpinning these correlations still remain a puzzle. We reviewed the studies that examined changes in incidence during the pandemic. These studies utilized various metrics for comparison, which encompassed the timing of data collection, diagnostic criteria, as well as the numbers and incidence rates of diabetes and DKA...

OBJECTIVES: Hyperglycemia is a known side effect of anticancer chemotherapeutic drugs. This entity known as drug-induced diabetes mellitus usually does not present with the development of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). We hereby report a case of drug induced diabetes mellitus in a child with acute leukemia presenting with DKA. CASE PRESENTATION: We report a case of a teenage boy diagnosed with B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia and was started on induction phase chemotherapy as per the Indian Collaborative Childhood Leukemia group (ICICLe) acute lymphoblastic leukemia-14 protocol...

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the risk factors for diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) in children/adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) and to establish a model for predicting the risk of DKA. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was performed on 217 children/adolescents with T1DM who were admitted to General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University from January 2018 to December 2021. Among the 217 children/adolescents,169 cases with DKA were included as the DKA group and 48 cases without DKA were included as the non-DKA group...

OBJECTIVES: Abdominal pain is a common presentation in patients of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). However, this pain generally resolves with resolution of dehydration and acidosis. Persistence of abdominal pain even after resolution of ketosis and acidosis should warrant careful reassessment to find evidence of sepsis and concomitant abdominal pathology. CASE PRESENTATION: We report a rare case of type 1 diabetes mellitus in a 15 year old girl diagnosed 6 months ago who presented with mild DKA (pH 7...

PURPOSE: Sodium glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) have been evaluated in children with type-2 diabetes (T2DM), Type-1 diabetes (T1DM) and several other non-diabetic conditions. Potential tolerability issues have been preventing us from routinely using SGLT2i in children with diabetes. No meta-analysis till date has evaluated the safety and tolerability of SGLT2i in children. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to address this knowledge-gap. METHODS: Databases were searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs), case-control and cohort studies involving children receiving SGLT2i in intervention-arm...
