Abstract
INTRODUCTION The aim of this study is to test the feasibility of a smartphone serious game-based intervention to promote resilience for adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). METHOD A two-arm feasibility study was employed. Adolescents with T1DM were recruited. Adolescents in intervention group completed the serious game (named "WeCan") in one month. We evaluated feasibility and acceptability using criteria such as the recruitment response rate, the follow-up response rate, and satisfaction. RESULTS Sixty-one adolescents with T1DM were included in this study. The study had a recruitment response rate of 62.89% (61/97) and an intervention completion rate of 64.52% (20/31). Eighty-two percent of the adolescents were satisfied with WeCan, which they perceived to have the advantages of being a lively format, attractive, and privacy, easy to operate, and improved attitude towards diabetes. CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest that WeCan demonstrated good feasibility among the target population. However, the efficacy of health-related outcomes needs to be clarified in future studies.

Abstract
The number of people suffering from diabetes, including type 1, is constantly increasing both in Poland and worldwide. Type 1 diabetes is a chronic disease characterized by uncertain prognosis and relapses, as well as permanent, irreversible, and progressive changes in health status. The ongoing disease results in dysfunction or disability, and the patient requires specialized supervision, care, and rehabilitation. However, the success of therapy does not depend solely on the perfection of treatment, but also on the patient's readiness to change their lifestyle and cooperate with the therapeutic team. The patient's constant alertness in making therapeutic decisions does not always lead to expected treatment results, and the risk of hypoglycemia associated with intensive insulin treatment depletes the patient's motivation for treatment, leading over time to the development of 'therapeutic burnout' and psychiatric disorders. This narrative review is an attempt to summarize the knowledge and possible future solutions in diabetes type 1 in Poland as well as highlight the importance of comprehensive care, including psychological care, which appears fundamental in a chronic disease such as type 1 diabetes. Therefore, the aim of the study was to present generational changes and psychosocial problems of patients with type 1 diabetes and to identify urgent challenges in diabetic care. Attention should be paid to the deteriorating mental condition of the young generations, who, in the course of diabetes, are exposed to additional psychological and psychiatric health problems. The next generation of patients will require more psychological care, which is why the challenge of the future is to create psychodiabetology centers.

Abstract
Background Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease that can lead to depression and anxiety disorders if it is not controlled and managed properly. This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of depression and anxiety disorders among diabetic patients and to determine whether patient knowledge is a risk factor. Methods The study included 220 patients with diabetes who attended the Diabetic Care Center. Socio-demographic data on the patients was collected. The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale questionnaire was used to assess patients' depression and anxiety levels. The Diabetes Knowledge Test 2 was used to assess the patients' knowledge of diabetes. Results From 220 patients with diabetes, anxiety was detected in 78.2%. From the recordings of these patients with diabetes, it was observed that 32.7%, 29.5%, and 15.9% suffered from mild, moderate, and severe anxiety, respectively. Depression was diagnosed in 170 patients (77.2%), with the majority sowing a moderate degree (32.3%) of depression. Furthermore, 29.5% and 15.5% patients had recorded mild and severe degrees of depression, respectively. Patients' understanding of diabetes was inadequate in this study, with the majority of patients (70.5%) having a low level of overall diabetes knowledge. In terms of general knowledge of diabetes, 64.1% patients had a low knowledge level, whereas 74.5% patients had a low knowledge level related to insulin therapy. Conclusion The patients' diabetes knowledge is significantly correlated with their anxiety and depression symptoms. Patients with diabetes should be regularly screened for anxiety and depression symptoms. Our findings indicate that the educational diabetes program could be a useful intervention for reducing depression and anxiety.

Associations between Disordered Eating Behaviors and HbA 1c in Young People with Type 1 Diabetes: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis. Curr Diabetes Rev 2024; 20:e220823220144. [PMID: 37608674 DOI: 10.2174/1573399820666230822095939] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2023] [Revised: 06/25/2023] [Accepted: 07/03/2023] [Indexed: 08/24/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND In type 1 diabetes, disordered eating behaviors (DEB) can adversely impact HbA1c. Diabetes-adapted DEB questionnaires assess intentional insulin omission, whereas generic questionnaires do not. Given the number of studies describing DEB-HbA1c associations published over the past decade, an updated systematic review is warranted. OBJECTIVE The study aimed to examine the associations between DEBs assessed by generic and diabetes- adapted questionnaires (and subscales) and HbA1c among young people (<29 years) with type 1 diabetes. METHODS A systematic search was conducted in PubMed, Embase, PsycInfo, and CINAHL databases. Observational studies examining associations between DEB as assessed by questionnaires and HbA1c were included. Publication information, DEB and HbA1c characteristics, and DEBHbA1c associations were extracted. Hedges' g was calculated for mean HbA1c differences between groups with and without DEB. RESULTS The systematic search yielded 733 reports, of which 39 reports representing 35 unique studies met the inclusion criteria. Nineteen studies assessing DEB by diabetes-adapted questionnaires (n=5,795) and seven using generic questionnaires (n=2,162) provided data for meta-analysis. For diabetes-adapted questionnaires, DEB was associated with higher HbA1c (g=0.62 CI=0.52; 0.73) with a similar effect size when restricted to validated questionnaires (g=0.61; CI=0.50; 0.73). DEB was not associated with HbA1c for generic questionnaires (g=0.19; CI=-0.17; 0.55), but significantly associated with higher HbA1c for validated generic questionnaires (g=0.32; 95% CI=0.16-0.48). Participant and HbA1c collection characteristics were often inadequately described. CONCLUSION Diabetes-adapted DEB questionnaires should be used in youth with type 1 diabetes because they capture intentional insulin omission and are more strongly associated with HbA1c than generic DEB questionnaires.

Abstract
The mothers of children with a specific clinical situation such as type 1 diabetes mellitus may have a higher level of stress, causing a worse perception of their quality of life, greater anxiety, and greater avoidance (adult attachment factors). The objective of this research was to verify if there is a relationship between the adult attachment factors of mothers of children with and without type 1 diabetes mellitus and the perception of the quality of life of these mothers. This survey was carried out from July to September 2022, with mothers of children aged 5 to 10 years, with and without diabetes. The data were collected through an online questionnaire, with socioeconomic data from the attachment scale Experience in Close Relationship-(Reduced), and the questionnaire on the quality of life, the WHOQOL-abbreviated questionnaire. For statistical analysis, the Statistical Package for Social Science 24 was used. A total of 45 mothers of children with DM1 and 55 mothers of healthy children were evaluated. The mothers of children with DM1 had a worse perception of their quality of life when compared to the mothers of healthy children (p < 0.05), with no difference in terms of the attachment style. Therefore, it is understood that actions aimed at improving the quality of life of these mothers are necessary.

Associations of Diabetes-related and Health-related Quality of Life With Glycemic Levels in Adolescents With Type 1 Diabetes Preparing to Transition to Adult Care. Can J Diabetes 2023; 47:525-531. [PMID: 37182591 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcjd.2023.05.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2022] [Revised: 05/01/2023] [Accepted: 05/08/2023] [Indexed: 05/16/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES As adolescents with type 1 diabetes (T1D) progress to adulthood, they assume responsibility for diabetes self-management while dealing with competing life demands, decreasing parental support, and the transfer to adult care. Lower perceived quality of life (QOL) may hamper diabetes management, which is associated with suboptimal glycemic levels. Our objective was to determine associations of diabetes- and health-related QOL with glycemic management (glycated hemoglobin [A1C]) in adolescents with T1D before their transfer to adult care. METHODS We conducted a cross-sectional analysis of baseline data from the Group Education Trial to Improve Transition (GET-IT- T1D) in adolescents with T1D (16 to 17 years of age). Participants completed validated questionnaires measuring diabetes-related QOL (PedsQL 3.2 Diabetes Module) and health-related QOL (PedsQL 4.0 Generic Core Scales). Associations of QOL Total and subscale scores with A1C were assessed using linear regression models adjusted for sex, diabetes duration, socioeconomic status, insulin pump use, and mental health comorbidity. RESULTS One hundred fifty-three adolescents with T1D were included (mean age, 16.5 [standard deviation, 0.3] years). Diabetes-related QOL Total scores (adjusted β=-0.04; 95% confidence interval [CI], -0.05 to -0.02) as well as subscale scores for Diabetes Symptoms (adjusted β=-0.02; 95% CI, -0.04 to -0.00) and Diabetes Management (adjusted β=-0.04; 95% CI, -0.05 to -0.02) were inversely associated with A1C. Health-related QOL Total scores were not associated with A1C, but Psychosocial Health subscale scores were (adjusted β=-0.01; 95% CI, -0.03 to -0.00). CONCLUSION Our results suggest that strategies focussing on diabetes-related QOL and psychosocial health may help prepare adolescents for the increasing responsibility of diabetes self-care.

The associations between physical activity, health-related quality of life, regimen adherence, and glycemic control in adolescents with type 1 diabetes: A cross-sectional study. Prim Care Diabetes 2023:S1751-9918(23)00068-2. [PMID: 37080862 DOI: 10.1016/j.pcd.2023.04.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/07/2022] [Revised: 03/25/2023] [Accepted: 04/03/2023] [Indexed: 04/22/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Adolescents with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) display a greater than two-fold higher risk of developing diabetes-related complications compared with their healthy peers and the risk increases markedly as glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) increases. The majority of the known factors associated with improved glycemic control in adolescents with T1D are geared toward Western populations. Therefore, this study examined the associations between Physical Activity (PA), Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL), and regimen adherence on glycemic control in a Middle Eastern population of adolescents with T1D METHODS: The study utilized a cross-sectional design of Jordanian adolescents (aged 12-18) with T1D (n = 74). Self-reported measures used were the Pediatric Quality of Life-Diabetes Module, the International Physical Activity Questionnaire, and the Summary of Diabetes Self-Care Activities. HbA1c values were obtained from the medical records. Correlation analyses were conducted using Pearson's and Spearman's correlation tests. Multiple regression analyses were conducted to determine if HRQoL, PA, and regimen adherence predict glycemic control. RESULTS Only 14.8 % of the participants demonstrated good glycemic control (HbA1c ≤ 7.5 %). Participants with poor control had a statistically significant lower mean PA of MET-minutes/week (3531.9 ± 1356.75 vs. 1619.81 ± 1481.95, p < .001) compared to those with good control. The total sample was found to demonstrate low HRQoL (47.70 ± 10.32). Participants were within the acceptable range of PA (1885.38 ± 1601.13) MET-minutes/week. HbA1c significantly inversely correlated with PA (r = -0.328, p = .010) and regimen adherence (r = -0.299, p = .018). The regression analysis revealed that PA significantly predicted glycemic control (β = -0.367, p < .01) as adherence (β = -0.409, p < .01) and disease duration did (β = 0.444, p < .01). CONCLUSION Better glycemic control was significantly associated with higher PA and regimen adherence levels. The correlation between PA and glycemic control depends highly on the level of regimen adherence or arguably, adherence acts as a buffer in the correlation between PA and glycemic control. There was no significant association between glycemic control and HRQoL.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Because adolescence is a time of difficult management of Type 1 diabetes (T1D) in part from adolescent-parent shared responsibility of T1D management, our objective was to assess the effects of a decision support system (DSS) CloudConnect on T1D-related communication between adolescents and their parents and on glycemic management. METHODS We followed 86 participants including 43 adolescents with T1D (not on automated insulin delivery systems, AID) and their parents/care-giver for a 12-week intervention of UsualCare + CGM or CloudConnect, which included a Weekly Report of automated T1D advice, including insulin dose adjustments, based on data from continuous glucose monitors (CGM), Fitbit and insulin use. Primary outcome was T1D-specific communication and secondary outcomes were hemoglobin A1c, time-in-target range (TIR) 70-180 mg/dl, and additional psychosocial scales. RESULTS Adolescents and parents reported a similar amount of T1D-related communication in both the UsualCare + CGM or CloudConnect groups and had similar levels of final HbA1c. Overall blood glucose time in range 70-180 mg/dl and time below 70 mg/dl were not different between groups. Parents but not children in the CloudConnect group reported less T1D-related conflict; however, compared to the UsualCare + CGM group, adolescents and parents in the CloudConnect reported a more negative tone of T1D-related communication. Adolescent-parent pairs in the CloudConnect group reported more frequent changes in insulin dose. There were no differences in T1D quality of life between groups. CONCLUSIONS While feasible, the CloudConnect DSS system did not increase T1D communication or provide improvements in glycemic management. Further efforts are needed to improve T1D management in adolescents with T1D not on AID systems.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To measure the acceptability and diagnostic accuracy of commonly used depression screening measures to determine ideal cutoff scores that sensitively identify depressive disorders in adolescents with type 1 diabetes (T1D). RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS One hundred adolescents (12-17 years old) completed a reference standard, semistructured diagnostic interview and both long and short versions of five commonly used depression screening measures in the United States. To assess feasibility and acceptability, we used screener completion time and participant ratings, respectively. We used descriptive statistics, area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analyses, and paired-sample area differences under the ROC curve to assess each measure's diagnostic validity against our reference standard and to determine ideal cutoff scores for this sample. RESULTS Adolescents had a mean age of 15.0 ± 1.7 years, time since T1D diagnosis of 6.0 ± 4.1 years, and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) of 8.9 ± 1.8%. Sixty percent of adolescents were male, 15% endorsed a current depressive disorder, and 15% endorsed lifetime suicidality. Measures demonstrated low sensitivity (0.33-0.67) to detect current depressive disorders using preexisting cutoff scores. However, adjusted cutoff scores increased sensitivity and reduced false negatives. All depression screening measures demonstrated "good" to "excellent" predictive validity, and the Children's Depression Inventory-2 Short version demonstrated significantly greater diagnostic accuracy than the Patient Health Questionnare-2 item version for adolescents. CONCLUSIONS Clinics should consider using screening measures with the greatest diagnostic accuracy as identified in this study and adjusting measure cutoff scores to increase sensitivity and reduce false negatives.

Abstract
Health-related quality of life (HRQOL) is a multifaceted concept that is strongly impacted by Type II diabetes in developing countries. The majority of studies indicate diabetes mellitus prevalence without looking at people's quality of life. This study was conducted using an Institution-based cross-sectional design in Debre Markos Referral Hospital from March 03 to March 31, 2020. We evaluated HRQOL using the WHO quality of life BREF and data were obtained through face-to-face interviews. We used a systematic random sampling technique to select study participants. Data were entered into Epi data version 3.1 and exported to STATA version 14.0. Candidates for multivariable analysis were variables with a P-value less than 0.25 in the bivariable analysis and P-value less than 0.05 were considered to declare a statistically significant association. The final model was tested for its goodness of fit using Hosmer and Lemeshow's statistics. The analysis included a total of 368 adult individuals with type II diabetes and 206 (56%) had a good HRQOL. Being male (AOR = 4.28, 95%CI:2.36, 7.78), having duration of disease of more than 59 months (AOR = 2.93, 95%CI:1.61, 5.34), doing a physical exercise (AOR = 2.33,95%CI:1.34, 4.05) and got counseling (AOR = 3.33; 95%CI:1.82, 5.94) were directly associated with good HRQOL whereas the presence of diabetic complications (AOR = 0.46, 95%CI:0.26, 0.80), comorbidity (AOR = 0.45; 95%CI:0.25, 0.84) and drinking alcohol (AOR = 0.27, 95%CI:0.16, 0.48) had an inverse relationship with good HRQOL. More than half of type 2 diabetic adult patients had a good HRQOL. Being male, drinking alcohol, getting counseling, doing physical exercise, absence of diabetic complications, and comorbidity and long duration of disease were predictors of good HRQOL. Therefore, avoiding drinking alcohol and promoting physical exercise and counseling should be encouraged.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The following report describes the evaluation of the ISPAD Science School for Physicians (ISSP) and for Healthcare Professionals (ISSHP) in terms of their efficiency and success. METHODS All past attendees from 2000-2019 ISSP and 2004-2019 ISSHP programs were invited to respond to an online survey to assess perceived outcomes of the programs on career development, scientific enhancement, scientific networking, and social opportunities. RESULTS One-third of the past ISSP (129/428), and approximately 43% of the past ISSHP attendees (105/245) responded to the surveys. Most of ISSP attendees reported that the programs supported their career (82%) by helping to achieve a research position (59%), being engaged with diabetes care (68%) or research (63%) or starting a research fellowship (59%). Responders indicated that ISSP was effective in increasing interest in diabetes research (87%) and enhancing the number (66%) and quality (83%) of scientific productions, and promotion of international collaborations (86%). After the ISSP, 34% of responders received research grants. From the first round of the ISSHP survey (2004-2013), responders reported have improved knowledge (60%), gained more confidence in research (69%), undertaken a research project (63%), and achieved a higher academic degree (27%). From the second round (2014-2019), participants indicated that the program was valuable/useful in workplace (94%) through understanding (89%) and conducting (68%) research and establishing communication from other participants (64%) or from faculty (42%). After the ISSHP, 17% had received awards. CONCLUSIONS From the participants' viewpoint, both programs were effective in improving engagement with diabetes research, supporting career opportunities, increasing scientific skills, and enhancing networking and research activities.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Transition from pediatric to adult healthcare systems is a difficult process for young adults with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) and most patients experience a deterioration in disease control. Mental health (MH) disorders are common in individuals with T1D and are believed to play a role in disease control and transition of care. We evaluated the association between the presence of pediatric MH disorder and measures of success in diabetes care in young adults who recently transitioned to adult care. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Retrospective cohort study of young adults in a large adult endocrinology system who transitioned from a pediatric hospital system after 2009. MH disorders were diagnosed by clinical pediatric psychologists during routine care at the pediatric hospital. Measurements of Hemoglobin A1c, diabetes-related emergencies, clinic attendance and intervals in transition were assessed and compared between the pediatric and adult hospital systems. RESULTS 237 young adults were identified and 100 (42%) of these were diagnosed with a MH disorder during pediatric care. Presence of a MH disorder was associated with higher Hemoglobin A1c levels prior to transition and increased rates of diabetes-related hospitalizations during the transition interval. Patients with a MH disorder were less likely to establish a pattern of consistent follow up after transition (p = 0.021). CONCLUSIONS MH disorders are common and predict greater challenges with diabetes management and less effective transition into the adult endocrinology system. Early recognition of MH disorders may allow for allocation of more proactive and intensive support for affected patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The prevalence of mental health issues has increased at an alarming rate during the COVID-19 pandemic. Furthermore, an exacerbated psychosocial burden in populations with chronic disease is observed. This cross-sectional study evaluated the psychosocial factors of pediatric type 1 diabetes (T1D) during the COVID-19 pandemic. METHODS During April 2020, 15 min phone interviews were performed for pediatric T1D group (n=100) and healthy comparison group (n=93) to assess psychosocial functioning during the acute lockdown phase of the pandemic. The patient health questionnaire-4 was utilized to assess anxiety and depressive symptoms. An additional questionnaire to assess specific concerns related to T1D and COVID-19 was administered to the T1D group to explore potential causes for increased psychosocial burden. RESULTS T1D was associated with a five-times higher risk of anxiety symptoms. Increased anxiety symptoms in T1D group appear to be, at least in part, due to fear of higher risk of severe COVID-19 infection and uncertainty regarding access to diabetes supplies. CONCLUSIONS This study provides a snapshot of mental well-being in a diverse population of patients with T1D in the acute phase of a crisis and underscores the need for timely, accurate medical information and distribution of medical resources for pediatric T1D population.

Abstract
Digital health interventions are a promising alternative to face-to-face psychosocial interventions that may improve psychological outcomes in youth with diabetes. Several reviews have explored the efficacy of digital health interventions for adults and youth with some chronic health conditions; however, their efficacy among youth with type 1 diabetes is not known. This systematic review aims to assess digital health interventions targeting both psychological and physical health outcomes in youth with type 1 diabetes as well as to evaluate study quality and efficacy, and provide directions for future research in this area. Relevant studies were identified through searches conducted in MEDLINE, Embase, APA PsycInfo, Scopus, Cochrane Central, and CINAHL Plus up until February 2021. Studies were included if they were randomized; reported at least one psychological outcome that was assessed at ≥2 time points; included a digital health intervention; and were conducted in youth aged 5 to 25 years with type 1 diabetes. The revised Cochrane risk-of-bias (RoB 2) tool was used to assess risk of bias. Of the 5159 articles found, 15 met the inclusion criteria and were included in the review. Self-efficacy improved in 2 of the 3 studies which assessed self-efficacy; however, no consistent improvements were found for other psychological, behavioral, or physical outcomes. All studies showed some risk of bias concerns. More research is needed to make firm conclusions on the efficacy of digital health interventions for youth with diabetes. More specifically, interventions based on psychological theories are needed and studies of higher quality methodologies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study is aimed at exploring the illness experiences of adolescents with type 1 diabetes (T1D). METHODS Using semistructured questions, 12 adolescents with T1D in Korea were interviewed regarding their illness experiences. Data were analyzed using grounded theory methodology. RESULTS Participants described their experiences in the core category, "becoming myself again," which resulted in 130 concepts, 36 subcategories, 13 categories, and five themes. The themes included tied, overwhelmed, running away, struggling, and conciliating. Tied, the first process, entailed three categories: "confined to blood sugar control," "feeling constrained," and "supervised by parents." The overwhelmed process included "self-banished" and "surrounded by stigma." Running away included three categories-"growing up," "folding," and "withdrawal." Struggling entailed "seeking for solution to overcome," "developing response skills," and "accepting help." The last process, conciliating, included "redefining my perspective" and "reconciling with myself." CONCLUSIONS The findings indicate that the illness experience of adolescents with T1D should be understood in terms of both physical and psychosocial dimensions, considering the sociocultural and developmental context. The results of this study provide valuable information on diabetes education. Moreover, these findings encourage nurses to develop intervention programs and strategies to help adolescents with T1D.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Type 1 diabetes and neurodevelopmental disorders are common chronic conditions in childhood and adolescence, and having one may lead to an increased chance of developing the other. Type 1 diabetes mellitus is mainly manifested by elevated blood glucose, while neurodevelopmental diseases are composed of a variety of diseases, which are relatively complex. The purpose of this meta-analysis was to find out the prevalence of type 1 diabetes-related neurodevelopmental disorders in children and adolescents and to explore the potential association between neurodevelopmental disorders and type 1 diabetes. PubMed, Embase and Web of science databases were searched from the inception to May 22, 2022 to identify relevant studies, Finally, 24 original studies were included in the meta-analysis. Prevalence estimates for neurodevelopmental disorders in the type 1 diabetes adolescent and their 95% confidence intervals were pooled using random effects models. The pooled estimates for autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in the type 1 diabetes population were 1.2 and 5.3%, respectively, both of which are higher than the 2019 global prevalence of ASD and ADHD in the general population. The results of the subgroup analysis showed that the prevalence of ASD and ADHD in the T1DM population tended to increase with age. In conclusion, there may be a potential link between the occurrence of type 1 diabetes mellitus and the development of neurodevelopmental disorders in children and adolescents, but more relevant studies are needed to understand the link between the underlying pathogenesis of type 1 diabetes and neurodevelopmental disorders.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Poor metabolic control and low treatment adherence remain major issues for many pediatric patients with type 1 diabetes. Important risk factors for both include psychosocial variables such as stress. To date, stress in type 1 diabetes patients and their parents has been investigated at an individual level. The present study tested the hypothesis that patients', mothers', and fathers' perceived stress is positively related to each other and therefore is a factor common to the family. This factor was then hypothesized to be related to patients' poorer treatment adherence behavior and metabolic control. Research Design and Methods. This cross-sectional study at the University Children's Hospital Zurich included 190 type 1 diabetes patients (age: 7-18 years; illness duration: ≥1 year) and their families. The Perceived Stress Scale was used to measure the self-reported stress of patients, mothers, and fathers. Patients' treatment adherence was rated by their endocrinologists. HbA1c served as indicator of metabolic control. A structural equation model (SEM) was conducted for analysis. RESULTS The SEM showed adequate model fit. Patients' (β = .567, p ≤ .001), mother's (β = .621, p ≤ .001), and father's (β = .585, p ≤ .001) perceived stress loaded all on a single factor, perceived family stress. This factor was significantly associated with treatment adherence (β = -.384, p ≤ .001) and with HbA1c (β = .210, p = .012) of patients. CONCLUSIONS Results confirmed perceived family stress to be a common family construct. Because perceived family stress might have a negative impact on patients' treatment adherence and HbA1c, subjective stress appraisals of patients and both parents should be considered when counseling children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes.

Abstract
AIMS To determine whether diabetes distress or depression screening better predict increased hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and to assess interactions with age, sex, race, obesity, and insurance status. BACKGROUND Diabetes distress is a negative emotional reaction to diabetes, diabetes complications, self-management demands, unresponsive providers, and/or poor interpersonal relationships. Guidelines recommend annual depression screening, however diabetes distress may be mistaken for depression. METHOD Depression (PHQ-9) and diabetes distress (PAID-T) scores from self-administered tests were studied in 313 patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) between the ages of 13-17. Spearman correlations and robust rank order multivariable regression analysis were used to assess relationships to age, duration, HbA1c. Kruskal-Wallis test was used to assess differences between sexes, races, and insurance status. Receiver operator curves (ROC) were constructed to see whether PAID-T or PHQ-9 scores more closely predicted HbA1c greater than 9%. RESULTS HbA1c was more strongly correlated with PAID-T (rs = 0.37, p < 0.01), than PHQ-9 (rs = 0.27, p < 0.01) scores. Area under ROC curve for poor HbA1c was 0.75 for PAID and 0.64 for PHQ-9. PAID-T and PHQ-9 scores were increased in females and subjects with public insurance and both were significantly related to HbA1c even when accounting for age, sex, race obesity, and insurance status. PHQ-9 and PAID-T scores correlated with BMI-Z scores in Blacks, but not Whites. CONCLUSIONS Both depression and diabetes distress are associated with increased HbA1c in adolescents with T1D, though distress is more so. Diabetes distress and depression should be routinely assessed in T1D adolescents, particularly those with public insurance.

Abstract
Saudi Arabia ranks among the top ten in type 1 diabetes (T1D) prevalence. The psychological burden, including depression, among T1D children, affects short-term and long-term outcomes. In Saudi Arabia, studies on depression among T1D children are limited. We determined the prevalence of depression among T1D children and adolescents in the Saudi Arabia-Qassim region and investigated risk factors for depressive symptoms. This quantitative cross-sectional study was conducted among T1D children and adolescents in the outpatient clinic of Maternity and Children Hospital, Buraydah, Saudi Arabia, between October 2020 and April 2021. Using a validated questionnaire translated into Arabic, we interviewed patients during clinic appointment. Questionnaires on sociodemographic characteristics, clinical data, and Clinical Depression Inventory scale were used to measure depression. There were 148 T1D respondents (children: 58.1%; adolescents: 41.9%). More than half were females (53.4%), with most Saudis (94.6%). Depression prevalence among children and adolescents was 27%. Mild, moderate, and severe depression occurred in 80%, 12.5%, and 7.5% of depressed patients, respectively. Factors significant for depression were female sex (p = 0.014), uncontrolled HbA1c level (p = 0.037), and longer diabetes duration (p = 0.013). Depression among children and adolescents was more prevalent in this study than in previous reports. Early detection of depression will improve diabetes control and quality of life.

Abstract
BACKGROUND For people with diabetes mellitus to achieve optimal glycaemic control, motivation to perform self-management is important. The research team wanted to determine whether or not psychological interventions are clinically effective and cost-effective in increasing self-management and improving glycaemic control. OBJECTIVES The first objective was to determine the clinical effectiveness of psychological interventions for people with type 1 diabetes mellitus and people with type 2 diabetes mellitus so that they have improved (1) glycated haemoglobin levels, (2) diabetes self-management and (3) quality of life, and fewer depressive symptoms. The second objective was to determine the cost-effectiveness of psychological interventions. DATA SOURCES The following databases were accessed (searches took place between 2003 and 2016): MEDLINE, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), Cochrane Library, PsycINFO, EMBASE, Cochrane Controlled Trials Register, Web of Science, and Dissertation Abstracts International. Diabetes conference abstracts, reference lists of included studies and Clinicaltrials.gov trial registry were also searched. REVIEW METHODS Systematic review, aggregate meta-analysis, network meta-analysis, individual patient data meta-analysis and cost-effectiveness modelling were all used. Risk of bias of randomised and non-randomised controlled trials was assessed using the Cochrane Handbook (Higgins JP, Altman DG, Gøtzsche PC, Jüni P, Moher D, Oxman AD, et al. The Cochrane Collaboration's tool for assessing risk of bias in randomised trials. BMJ 2011;343:d5928). DESIGN Systematic review, meta-analysis, cost-effectiveness analysis and patient and public consultation were all used. SETTING Settings in primary or secondary care were included. PARTICIPANTS Adolescents and children with type 1 diabetes mellitus and adults with types 1 and 2 diabetes mellitus were included. INTERVENTIONS The interventions used were psychological treatments, including and not restricted to cognitive-behavioural therapy, counselling, family therapy and psychotherapy. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Glycated haemoglobin levels, self-management behaviours, body mass index, blood pressure levels, depressive symptoms and quality of life were all used as outcome measures. RESULTS A total of 96 studies were included in the systematic review (n = 18,659 participants). In random-effects meta-analysis, data on glycated haemoglobin levels were available for seven studies conducted in adults with type 1 diabetes mellitus (n = 851 participants) that demonstrated a pooled mean difference of -0.13 (95% confidence interval -0.33 to 0.07), a non-significant decrease in favour of psychological treatment; 18 studies conducted in adolescents/children with type 1 diabetes mellitus (n = 2583 participants) that demonstrated a pooled mean difference of 0.00 (95% confidence interval -0.18 to 0.18), indicating no change; and 49 studies conducted in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (n = 12,009 participants) that demonstrated a pooled mean difference of -0.21 (95% confidence interval -0.31 to -0.10), equivalent to reduction in glycated haemoglobin levels of -0.33% or ≈3.5 mmol/mol. For type 2 diabetes mellitus, there was evidence that psychological interventions improved dietary behaviour and quality of life but not blood pressure, body mass index or depressive symptoms. The results of the network meta-analysis, which considers direct and indirect effects of multiple treatment comparisons, suggest that, for adults with type 1 diabetes mellitus (7 studies; 968 participants), attention control and cognitive-behavioural therapy are clinically effective and cognitive-behavioural therapy is cost-effective. For adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (49 studies; 12,409 participants), cognitive-behavioural therapy and counselling are effective and cognitive-behavioural therapy is potentially cost-effective. The results of the individual patient data meta-analysis for adolescents/children with type 1 diabetes mellitus (9 studies; 1392 participants) suggest that there were main effects for age and diabetes duration. For adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (19 studies; 3639 participants), baseline glycated haemoglobin levels moderated treatment outcome. LIMITATIONS Aggregate meta-analysis was limited to glycaemic control for type 1 diabetes mellitus. It was not possible to model cost-effectiveness for adolescents/children with type 1 diabetes mellitus and modelling for type 2 diabetes mellitus involved substantial uncertainty. The individual patient data meta-analysis included only 40-50% of studies. CONCLUSIONS This review suggests that psychological treatments offer minimal clinical benefit in improving glycated haemoglobin levels for adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. However, there was no evidence of benefit compared with control interventions in improving glycated haemoglobin levels for people with type 1 diabetes mellitus. FUTURE WORK Future work should consider the competency of the interventionists delivering a therapy and psychological approaches that are matched to a person and their life course. STUDY REGISTRATION This study is registered as PROSPERO CRD42016033619. FUNDING This project was funded by the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) Health Technology Assessment programme and will be published in full in Health Technology Assessment; Vol. 24, No. 28.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Type 1 diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease mainly diagnosed in children and adolescents. It has multiple psychiatric comorbidities. Our aim in this study was to determine the prevalence of psychological and behavioral problems in children and adolescents diagnosed with type 1 diabetes and to find if there is a strong correlation between these problems and different epidemiological- and disease-related factors such as age of the child, duration of diabetes, and other risk factors. We conducted a cross-sectional study and compared between 564 children diagnosed with diabetes mellitus type 1 (who attended Specialized Health Insurance Clinic in Sohag City, Upper Egypt, during the year 2018/2020) and 564 non-diabetic children matched with the diabetic children for age, sex, and socio-economic status. We used “Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ)” to screen for behavioral, social, and emotional problems in diabetic and control children. “SDQ” is a 25-item brief behavioral screening questionnaire that consists of five subscales which are emotional problems, hyperactivity-inattention problems, conduct problems, peer problems, and prosocial behavior subscales. It generates total score and individual score for each subscale.
Results
In our study, we found that diabetic children had significantly higher prevalence of emotional and behavioral problems than control children (92.37% of diabetic children versus 20.2% of control children had abnormal total SDQ score with P value < 0.001). All subscales of SDQ except prosocial subscale were significantly affected in children with type 1 diabetes mellitus than control children with P value < 0.001. Certain factors were significantly associated with impaired subscales of SDQ scale. We found a positive correlation between age and emotional, hyperactivity and conduct problems as these problems were more frequent in older children. Female children had more hyperactivity and conduct problems than male children (68.6%, 71.7% vs. 58.0%, 62.0%, P 0.002 and 0.003, respectively) while male children were more affected by emotional problems than female children (68% vs. 57.4%, P 0.003). Peer problems were more prevalent in children of parents with higher educational level. Children with positive family history of diabetes were less affected by emotional problems than children with negative family history (50% vs.64.3%, P 0.04). Longer duration of disease was associated with increased prevalence of peer and emotional problems. Poor control of diabetes increased the prevalence of conduct and emotional problems (P 0.007 and 0.022, respectively).
Conclusion
Children with type 1 diabetes mellitus have more emotional, hyperactivity, conduct, and peer problems than non-diabetic children. These findings indicate a need to screen diabetic children and adolescents for behavioral and emotional problems and treat these problems if found.

Abstract
Background. In the clinical management of diabetes, fixing metabolic variables is insufficient, and thus, health-related quality of life assessment is becoming an important indicator of the outcome of the treatment and detector of a problem in children and adolescents with chronic disease. Therefore the main aim of this study was to assess the Quality of life of children with type 1 diabetes in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Methods. A cross-sectional study design was included 229 study participants with type 1 diabetics aged between 8 and 18 years in Addis Ababa governmental hospitals. Samples were selected by a systematic sampling method and interviewed face to face. Health-related quality of life was determined by the pediatric quality of life inventory. Multivariable linear regression was done and a significant association was declared at P < .05. Result. The total mean score of health-related quality of life was 78.8 ± 15.6 reported by child and 61 ± 7.9 reported by parents. In this study well-controlled glycemic level (β = 11.8, 95%CI: 8.7, 14.9), health education on diabetes (β = 5.92, 95%CI: 2.9, 8.9) and frequency of hospital admission (β = −2.6, 95%CI: −4.8, −0.42) were clinically predicting factors of health-related quality of life. Conclusion. This study found that there was a somewhat reduction in school and emotional functions of health-related quality of life. The glycemic level, health education of diabetes and frequency of hospital admission was clinically significant factors of health-related quality of life. This study will recommend to the health professional to sustain a health education program on diabetes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The PedsQLTM 4.0 generic core scales (GCS) assess the generic health by integrating with disease-specific PedsQLTM 3.0 diabetes module (DM). The PedsQLTM 3.0 DM measures the health-related quality of life (HrQoL) specific to diabetes. Even though there is no translation to Ethiopian Amharic, the instruments had translated to different languages and validated. The study is aimed to assess the validity and reliability of the Amharic version of the PedsQLTM 4.0 GCS and the PedsQLTM 3.0 DM in children and adolescents with diabetes. METHODS PedsQLTM 4.0 GCS and the PedsQLTM 3.0 DM were administered on 193 children and adolescents with diabetes and their parents. The validity was examined by the exploratory factor analysis, multitrait/multi-item scaling analysis, and multitrait-multimethod and monotrait-multimethod analysis. Cronbach's alpha coefficient checked the reliability. RESULTS Cronbach's alpha coefficient for the total PedsQLTM 4.0 GCS (α child self-report= 0.96; α parent proxy report= 0.95) and for total PedsQLTM 3.0 DM (α child self-report= 0.96; α parent proxy report=0.93) were acceptable at individual patient-level analysis. The monotrait-multimethod correlations were higher than multitrait-multimethod correlations. In multitrait/multi-item scale analysis, both total PedsQLTM 4.0 GCS and PedsQLTM 3.0 DM had an excellent item convergent and discriminatory validity success rate. CONCLUSION The Amharic versions of the PedsQLTM 4.0 GCS and the PedsQLTM 3.0 DM were valid and reliable instruments to measure the HrQoL of children and adolescents with diabetes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To identify culturally appropriate psychological screening measures for children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes in Qatar, determine rates of depressive and anxiety symptoms in a clinical sample, and examine associations between screening measures, demographic variables, medical characteristics, and diabetes treatment outcomes, specifically HbA1c. METHODS A total of 150 participants with type 1 diabetes aged 10-17 were recruited. Participants were Arabic or English speaking and of Qatari and non-Qatari nationality. Participants completed the Mood and Feelings Questionnaire (child and parent proxy form), the Spence Children's Anxiety Scale, and the Pediatric Quality of Life, Diabetes version (child and parent proxy form). Glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) on the date of the testing was recorded. RESULTS Approximately ten percent (10.2%) of children and adolescents scored above the cutoff score of 27 indicating clinically significant depressive symptoms, and 12.8% of parents rated their child above the respective cutoff score of 21 for the parent proxy form. Further, 36% of the sample reported clinically significant anxiety symptoms, scoring above the cutoff score of 50. Parent report on their child's quality of life predicted HbA1c (F[6, 140] = 5.42, p = 0.000); B = -0.05, p = 0.002). CONCLUSIONS Rates of depressive and anxiety symptoms are comparable to those observed in western countries. Thus, systematic screening for depression and anxiety in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes should be implemented in Qatar. This will help inform decisions to refer to mental health services and thus provide more integrated care, possibly improving treatment outcomes.

The Synergistic Effects of a Complementary Physiotherapeutic Scheme in the Psychological and Nutritional Treatment in a Teenage Girl with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus, Anxiety Disorder and Anorexia Nervosa. CHILDREN-BASEL 2021; 8:children8060443.

Abstract
Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is a chronic disease that can affect the physical and mental health of children and adolescents, often leading to anxiety disorders with chronic activation of the hypothalamic axis (HPA). Moreover, a great proportion of adolescents with T1DM also demonstrate anorexia nervosa (AN), due to the increased preoccupation with food and the need to have an acceptable body image. Herein is described the first case study of an adolescent patient diagnosed with T1DM, anxiety disorder (AD), and AN. A 14-year-old girl with T1DM since the age of 12 years presented weight loss at age 13 years and 3 months and low body mass index (BMI), which did not improve despite dietary recommendations and adequate disease control. Additionally, she presented menstrual disorders at the age of 12 years and 11 months (menstrual age 12 years and 1 month). A psychological evaluation of the teenager was conducted using a semi-structured interview that assessed perceived stress, health status, quality of life, and depression. AD and AN were diagnosed and the patient initiated an intervention focusing on psychological health and nutrition and which incorporated physiotherapeutic relaxation sessions and breathing exercises. After 3 months of treatment, the patient’s BMI was increased, and a normal menstrual cycle was apparent. These results have since remained consistent. Stress leads to the appearance of AN and menstrual disorders. Therefore, physiotherapeutic programs could reduce stress and effectively ameliorate AN and AD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of the study was to develop a short form of the revised diabetes family conflict scale (DFCS) in a racially and income diverse sample while retaining strong psychometric properties. METHODS One seventy nine youth with type 1 diabetes (ages 12-18 years) and caregivers completed the DFCS-Revised as well as assessments of adherence, psychosocial functioning, and diabetes-related stress. Hemoglobin A1c was also obtained. The sample was split at random into a development sample and validation sample. RESULTS Confirmatory factor analyses in the validation sample supported the use of a six-item short form (DFCS-SF) either as a total score (6-items) or a direct (3-item) and indirect (3-item) score. Variations of the DFCS-SF (three items of the 6-item short form) also had acceptable model fit. The short-form questionnaires had acceptable internal consistency and convergent validity (6-item: Cronbach's a = 0.865, full scale DFCS r = 0.954; 3-item: Cronbach's a = 0.757, full scale DFCS r = 0.912). The DFCS-SF showed measurement invariance across both youth and caregiver respondents. Greater report of the DFCS-SF by both youth and caregivers was significantly associated with higher HbA1c, more diabetes-related stress, and more psychosocial concerns. CONCLUSIONS The DFCS-SF developed in the present study shows psychometric integrity in a diverse population of youth and can be utilized by providers to rapidly assess and potentially implement interventions to reduce diabetes family conflict, a psychosocial concern which is associated with elevated HbA1c, non-optimal adherence, diabetes-related stress, and psychological distress.

Abstract
ZusammenfassungJugendliche und junge Erwachsene mit Typ-1-Diabetes sind häufig von komorbiden psychischen Störungen betroffen. Dabei zeigt die Studienlage zur Verbreitung ein heterogenes und inkonsistentes Bild. Diagnose und Behandlung der somatopsychischen Begleiterkrankungen beeinflussen den Behandlungs- und Krankheitsverlauf sowie die Lebensqualität der Betroffenen. Trotzdem wird dies in der klinischen Praxis selten frühzeitig berücksichtigt. Das multizentrische Verbundprojekt COACH verfolgt das Ziel, die Erkennung und Behandlung psychischer Komorbidität für diese Zielgruppe in der bundesweiten Routineversorgung zu optimieren.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Persons with diabetes mellitus (DM) have increased morbidity and mortality rates compared with persons without DM. Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is a leading cause of death, and multiple studies have found an increased risk of SCD among individuals with DM. This review sought to collect the latest knowledge of the epidemiological and pathophysiological interplay between DM and SCD. RECENT FINDINGS Persons with DM have a two- to tenfold increased risk of SCD compared with persons without DM. The underlying mechanisms for the increased risk of SCD are complex and multifactorial. The main pathophysiological contributors are DM-induced cardiac autonomic neuropathy (CAN), metabolic changes, silent ischemia, and polypharmacy. Persons with DM have an increased risk of SCD. Future studies should focus on CAN and the combined risk of QT prolongation from the interplay between CAN, hypoglycemia, and polypharmacy. Genes and pathways involved in control of the autonomic nervous system and cardiac ion channels could be a future focal point.

The DISABKIDS generic and diabetes-specific modules are valid but not directly comparable between Denmark, Sweden, and Norway. Pediatr Diabetes 2020; 21:900-908. [PMID: 32333631 DOI: 10.1111/pedi.13036] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/25/2019] [Revised: 03/31/2020] [Accepted: 04/06/2020] [Indexed: 01/09/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES Government guidance promote benchmarking comparing quality of care including both clinical values and patient reported outcome measures in young persons with type 1 diabetes. The aim was to test if the Nordic DISABKIDS health-related quality of life (HrQoL) modules were construct valid and measurement comparable within the three Nordic countries. METHODS Data from three DISABKIDS validation studies in Sweden, Denmark, and Norway were compared using Rasch and the graphical log-linear Rasch modeling. Monte Carlo methods were used to estimate reliability coefficient and target was defined as the point with the lowest SE of the mean. Self-report data were available from 99 Danish (8-18 years), 103 Norwegian (7-19 years), and 131 Swedish (8-18 years) young people. RESULTS For the DISABKIDS higher scores on most subscales were noted in the Norwegian population. The Swedish sample had a significantly higher score on the "Diabetes treatment" subscale and scores closer to optimal target than the other countries. For each country, construct validity and sensitivity were acceptable when accounting for differential item function (DIF) and local dependency (LD). Less LD and DIF were found if only Denmark and Norway were included. The combined model was reliable; however, some differences were noted in the scale translations relating to the stem and response alternatives, which could explain the discrepancies. CONCLUSION The Nordic versions of the DISABKIDS questionnaires measures valid and reliable HrQoL both within and between countries when adjusted for DIF and LD. Adjusting the Likert scales to the same respond categories may improve comparability.

Abstract
AIM Cost-effective psychosocial interventions that can feasibly be implemented into busy clinical settings are needed to improve psychological and physical health outcomes in adolescents with Type 1 diabetes. We examined the efficacy of a gratitude journalling intervention to improve psychological well-being and glycaemic control in adolescents aged 10-16 years with Type 1 diabetes. METHODS Eighty adolescents were randomized to the 8-week gratitude intervention (N = 40) or standard care (N = 40). Self-reported measures of stress, quality of life, self-care, depression and gratitude were assessed at baseline and 8 weeks after baseline. Glycaemic control (HbA1c ) was assessed at baseline and 12 weeks after baseline. A per-protocol analysis was conducted with the adolescents who completed all questionnaires (N = 60). Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was used to examine differences between treatment arms at follow-up adjusting for baseline scores. RESULTS There was no evidence of any between-group differences in the psychological or behavioural measures at follow-up (all P-values > 0.05). Glycaemic control slightly increased in the control group while remaining stable in the gratitude group, with a between-group difference of 6.1 mmol/mol [95% confidence interval (CI) -2.6 to 14.7; 0.6%, 95% CI -0.2 to 1.3] at 12 weeks after baseline. After adjusting for baseline HbA1c , this between-group difference was significant (P = 0.048). CONCLUSIONS This is the first randomized trial of a gratitude journalling intervention for adolescents with Type 1 diabetes. Gratitude journalling interventions represent a clinically usable approach. If and how it helps to stabilise glycaemic control in adolescents with Type 1 diabetes remains to be confirmed in future research.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Evidence-based screening, assessment, and intervention practices for youth with type 1 diabetes (T1D) are underutilized. Implementation science (IS) offers theoretical models and frameworks to guide rigorous mixed methods research to advance comprehensive care for children and families. METHODS We conducted a targeted review of applications of IS to T1D. RESULTS Pediatric T1D research offers initial, but still limited studies on implementation of evidence-based psychosocial care. IS designates approaches to understanding multi-level factors that influence implementation, ways to alter these factors, and methods to evaluate strategies to improve implementation. CONCLUSIONS IS is promising for advancing the translation of pediatric psychology approaches into clinical care. Following the science of implementation, further documentation of the reach of evidence-based care and establishing practice guidelines are important initial steps. Examining the barriers and facilitators of evidence-based psychosocial care can guide the development of testable implementation strategies to improve integration of care. Successful strategies can be evaluated through multi-site controlled implementation trials to explore their effectiveness. These lines of inquiry can be considered within pediatric populations, but may also be used to examine similarities and differences in effectiveness of implementation strategies across populations and settings. Such research has the potential to improve the health and well-being of children and families.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Diabetes mellitus 1 is the second most frequent chronic disease, and the most frequent endocrine-metabolic disorder in childhood. The estimated prevalence is between 1.1 and 1.4 / 1000 children under 15 years years-old. In Andalusia the prevalence is higher (1.7 per thousand). The objective of the study is to evaluate health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and adherence to treatment, specifically in the paediatric population of Andalusia. METHODS A multicentre cross-sectional observational analytical study was conducted on a sample of 178 patients from six hospitals with a Paediatric Endocrinology Unit. Each patient received two questionnaires; quality of life (PedsQL version 3.0) and adherence to the self-care recommendations (SCI-R) treatment. The demographic, clinical, metabolic control data, and possible complications were also collected. RESULTS High levels were obtained in both adherence and health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Adherence was inversely related to age and HbA1c. The health-related quality of life (HRQoL) was associated with the use of a continuous real-time glucose monitoring system (MCG-TR) combined with continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII), as well as with a lower number of severe hypoglycaemia and renal complications. The mean HbA1c was 7.1%. 12,9% of patients used ISCI. 83.2% used capillary glycemia exclusively, while 16.8% used some interstitial glucose monitoring device. CONCLUSIONS This is the first study in Andalusia that analyzes the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of pediatric patients. The results show high levels of adherence and health-related quality of life (HRQoL), as well as good metabolic control.

Abstract
Background Given the importance of anxiety and quality of life for the mental health of children with type 1 diabetes (T1D), exercise prescription can be of crucial significance. The present study aims to explore the effect of concurrent resistance-aerobic training on serum cortisol level, anxiety, and quality of life among pediatric T1D. Methods Forty children (aged 8-14 years) were randomly assigned to experimental (n = 20) and control groups (n = 20) for 16 weeks. The exercise training program was composed of 16 weeks of interval concurrent resistance-aerobic training with a duration of 60 min performed three times a week. The subjects first performed the resistance training (20 min of Pilates exercises and 20 min of body weight-bearing exercises). Then, the aerobic exercises were performed with an intensity of 50-75% of maximum heart rate. Before and after the training, blood tests including cortisol were carried out on the subjects by RIA kit. Anxiety and quality of life were measured by the Revised Children's Manifest Anxiety Scale (RCMAS) and Pediatric Quality of Life (PedsQL), respectively. Body composition was measured by InBody. Data were analyzed by paired and independent t-test at p < 0.05 significance level. Results Sixteen weeks of concurrent resistance-aerobic exercise significantly reduced the anxiety index (p = 0.001) and increased the quality of life (p = 0.003). Although the cortisol index was increased, it did not reveal any significant differences between the experimental and control groups (p = 0.781). No significant differences were observed in the indices of quality of life, anxiety, and cortisol in the control group. Conclusions A 16-week program of concurrent resistance-aerobic training can improve the quality of life and anxiety among children suffering from T1D, but it may not influence the cortisol level (p > 0.05).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Young adulthood is a challenging period for people with diabetes mellitus type 1 (T1DM) as they are facing multiple life transitions while managing a demanding disease. This poses a risk for impaired health-related quality of life (HRQOL). We assessed HRQOL in a cohort of young adults with T1DM in the Netherlands, and compared outcomes with those of Dutch norm groups of healthy young adults and young adults with a chronic disease. METHODS We analyzed data collected in a larger evaluation study on transitional care for young adults with T1DM in a nationwide sample in the Netherlands, including twelve participating hospitals. These data had been obtained from online questionnaires completed by young adults with T1DM after they had transferred to adult care. HRQOL was self-reported with the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory for young adults (PedsQL-YA). RESULTS One hundred and sixty-five young adults with T1DM participated (44.2% response); and they scored significantly worse than did healthy peers on all domains of HRQOL, except social functioning. Particularly, functioning at school or work was worse than that of the norm group. The study group's HRQOL-scores were comparable to norm scores of young adults with chronic diseases, although the physical and social functioning of young people with T1DM was better. One quarter (26.1%) of all young adults with T1DM reported fatigue. CONCLUSIONS During transition to adulthood, young adults with T1DM struggle to maintain a balance between the demands of managing a disease and their life. Many of them encounter problems at work or school, and suffer from fatigue. These findings underscore the need to regularly assess HRQOL, and to discuss work- and education-related issues in clinical practice.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Adolescents with type 1 diabetes are at a higher risk of developing psychiatric disorders, particularly eating disorders, compared with their healthy peers. In turn, this increases the risk for sub-optimal glycaemic control and life-threatening diabetes-related complications. Despite these increased risks, standard diabetes care does not routinely provide psychological support to help prevent or reduce mental health risks. There is an urgent need to develop 'clinically usable' psychosocial interventions that are acceptable to patients and can be realistically integrated into clinical care. This study aims to examine the feasibility and acceptability of a brief self-compassion intervention for adolescents with type 1 diabetes and disordered eating behaviour. METHODS AND ANALYSIS This feasibility study will examine the effectiveness of a brief self-compassion intervention, compared with a waitlist control group. Participants aged 12-16 years will be recruited from three diabetes outpatient clinics in Auckland, New Zealand. The brief self-compassion intervention is adapted from the standardised 'Making Friends with Yourself' intervention and will be delivered in a group format over two sessions. Apart from examining feasibility and acceptability through the flow of participants through the study and qualitative questions, we will assess changes to disordered eating behaviour (primary outcome), self-care behaviours, diabetes-related distress, self-compassion, stress and glycaemic control (secondary outcomes). Such data will be used to calculate the required sample size for a fully powered randomised controlled trial. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION This trial has received ethics approval from the Health and Disability Ethics Committee (research project number A+8467). Study results will be disseminated through peer-reviewed journals and conferences. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER ANZCTR (12619000541101).

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Patient-reported outcomes have received increased attention as treatment outcomes and indicators of wellbeing. A1c has been criticized as lacking patient-centered relevance because individuals are often unaware of their A1c, and studies also often fail to show a benefit of intensive control on quality of life. The goal of the present study was to examine self-rated health (SRH) in relation to diabetes self-care behaviors, socioeconomic factors, treatment regimen characteristics, and glycemic control among predominately Hispanic and African American adolescents with type 1 diabetes (T1D). METHODS Adolescents with T1D (N = 84) were recruited for a cross-sectional study evaluating psychosocial factors and identity development. SRH, self-care behaviors, treatment regimen, and demographic variables were collected through self-report while glycemic control (A1c) was determined through chart review. RESULTS Participants were predominantly racial and ethnic minorities (48% Hispanic, 27% African American; 52% female, M age 15.9, M diabetes duration 6.8, M A1c 10% [86 mmol/mol]). Significant bivariate relationships emerged between SRH and sex, A1c, self-care behavior, and insulin delivery method. Covariate-adjusted regression models showed only A1c was significantly and independently related to SRH. Mediation analyses illustrated a significant indirect effect for A1c between self-care and SRH. CONCLUSION These findings suggest glycemic control is associated with self-ratings of health among ethnically diverse adolescents with T1D. SRH appears to be an appropriate patient-reported outcome that is sensitive to glycemic control in this population.

Living with type 1 diabetes mellitus: How does the condition affect children's and adolescents' quality of life? Arch Pediatr 2019; 27:24-28.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Our study aimed to measure the health-related quality of life (QoL) of Tunisian children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1MD). METHODS This cross-sectional study included 48 patients aged 3-18 years with T1MD, diagnosed for at least 6 months, and their parents, who underwent outpatient examinations from September to December 2018. The children's QoL was assessed using the PedQL 3.0 Diabetes Module exploring five dimensions: diabetes symptoms, treatment barriers, treatment adherence, worry, and communication problems. Parents shared their perception of their children's QoL through the PedQL 4.0 parents' report (general health and emotional, social, and scholar functioning). Glycemic control was assessed using the last glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) values. RESULTS The patients' average QoL score was 80.52 (±13.61) without significant differences between gender and age. The longer the duration of the disease, the worse the glycemic control. Girls and adolescents seemed to have poorer glycemic control. Boys and adolescents had more difficulties in all aspects of QoL. Parents perceived a worse QoL than that reported by their sons/daughters (72.34±16.42; P=0.006). CONCLUSION These findings emphasize the importance of an interdisciplinary, biopsychosocial, and family-centered care approach to patients with T1MD.

Pediatr Diabetes 2019; 20:964-973. [PMID: 31264763 PMCID: PMC7814422 DOI: 10.1111/pedi.12886] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2019] [Revised: 05/24/2019] [Accepted: 06/18/2019] [Indexed: 01/09/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Youth with type 1 diabetes (T1D) endorse high rates of depressive symptoms, which can significantly impair self-management, glycemic control, and quality of life. Current guidelines recommend annual depression screening for all adolescents with T1D, but few models exist to implement screening procedures across clinics in this population. The primary aim of this project was to increase depression screening from 0% to 80% in four clinics, and to describe the structured quality improvement process to reach this goal. METHODS All patients aged 12 to 21 years old with T1D at four participating clinics in a Midwestern hospital system were eligible to participate. Using a two-stage process, patients were administered the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-2 plus PHQ-9 if positive) annually. Rates of depression screening by clinic site, rates of positive depression screens, social worker documentation of follow-up care, and associations with diabetes-related health outcomes were analyzed. RESULTS Over 2 years, average depression screening rates increased from 0% to 75% across all clinics, and 89% of patients with a positive screen met with a social worker for a targeted mental health assessment. At initial screening, 7.6% of patients screened positive for at-risk depressive symptoms on the PHQ-2 and from that group, 6.7% additionally screened positive on the PHQ-9. CONCLUSIONS Annual depression screenings were feasibly implemented across four clinics and the use of real-time data listening and automated processes facilitated successful implementation. Future directions include further automation, targeted training and billing mechanisms, dissemination to non-metropolitan clinics, and further assessment of depression screening tools for adolescents with T1D.

Impact of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder on metabolic control in adolescents with type1 diabetes. J Psychosom Res 2019; 126:109816. [PMID: 31493719 DOI: 10.1016/j.jpsychores.2019.109816] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2019] [Revised: 08/20/2019] [Accepted: 08/21/2019] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Diabetes mellitus type 1 (T1D) incidence is increasing in pediatric population. Good metabolic control, measured by glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), significantly reduces the risk for chronic complications. Comorbid disorders, including attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), may influence glycemic control. To date little is known about the prevalence of ADHD among adolescents with T1D and its influence on diabetes self-management. Therefore, we aimed to identify adolescents with T1D and ADHD and assess the effect of ADHD on metabolic control. METHOD This cross-sectional case-control study included 101 patients (11-17 years old) with T1D. Development and Well-Being Assessment (DAWBA) questionnaire and subsequent psychiatric clinical examination were used to identify ADHD in a group with T1D. Indicators of metabolic control were collected from available medical documentation for preceding 12 months and compared between the group of patients with T1D and ADHD and the group of T1D patients without ADHD. RESULTS ADHD was diagnosed in 11.9% adolescents with T1D (12 of 101). We found a statistically significant difference (p = .022) in HbA1c between the two groups - higher in the group with T1D and ADHD (8.4% or 68.3 mmol/mol) than in the group with T1D without ADHD (7.8% or 61.7 mmol/mol). CONCLUSIONS Almost 12% of adolescents with type 1 diabetes were diagnosed with ADHD and they had poorer glycemic control. Adolescents with T1D and ADHD must be diagnosed early and offered appropriate treatment focused on preventing negative ADHD impact on metabolic control.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to develop an Insulin Treatment Self-management Scale; both Child Form and Parent Form for children ages 8-18 with type 1 diabetes. METHODS Children with type 1 diabetes and their parents participated in the study. Development of a methodologically designed scale was conducted to investigate insulin treatment self-management of children with type 1 diabetes. RESULTS A total of 331 children and their parents were recruited. Children and parents completed the data collection tools by themselves. The final scale had two subscales; one was related to cognitive and behavioural expressions regarding insulin treatment (self-efficacy) and the other to emotional aspects of self-maagement of insulin treatment (emotional impacts). The scale was shown to be valid and reliable. CONCLUSION This study was a valid and reliable scale for measuring insulin treatment self-management in children with type 1 diabetes. Thus can be used to assess insulin treatment self-management in children with type 1 diabetes and their parents as well as a tool for effective nursing care.
