Abstract
AIM The association between glycemic control and metabolic status is poorly defined in children and adolescents with T1D, besides being biologically plausible. We aimed to evaluate the association between glycemic control and body mass index (BMI), blood pressure (BP), and lipid profile in children and adolescents with T1D. METHODS Observational cross-sectional study including children and adolescents (5-18 years old) followed in our outpatient clinic with the diagnosis of T1D for at least a year. We used linear regression models (unadjusted and adjusted to sex and age) to evaluate the association between glycated hemoglobin (A1c) and time in range (TIR), several prespecified metabolic parameters, and prespecified demographic and clinical characteristics. We considered a p-value of <0.05 to be statistically significant. RESULTS A total of 144 patients were included, 51% of whom were female. The population had a mean age of 12.7±3.4 years old. We report a positive association between A1c and BMI, systolic and diastolic BP, total- and LDL-cholesterol and triglycerides. Females and patients diagnosed at a younger age presented with higher A1c values. There is a tendency for a negative association between TIR and the former parameters. Higher A1c levels and lower TIR were associated with higher glycemic variability and were treated with a higher basal insulin per Kg dose. CONCLUSION Our results support an important association between worse glycemic control and an unhealthier metabolic profile in children and adolescents with T1D. We can hypothesize that a good glycemic profile is needed to achieve good metabolic control at a young age.

Abstract
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is one of the most common chronic childhood diseases, and its prevalence is rapidly increasing. The management of glucose in T1D is challenging, as youth must consider a myriad of factors when making diabetes care decisions. This task often leads to significant hyperglycemia, hypoglycemia, and glucose variability throughout the day, which have been associated with short- and long-term medical complications. At present, most of what is known about each of these complications and the health behaviors that may lead to them have been uncovered in the clinical setting or in laboratory-based research. However, the tools often used in these settings are limited in their ability to capture the dynamic behaviors, feelings, and physiological changes associated with T1D that fluctuate from moment to moment throughout the day. A better understanding of T1D in daily life could potentially aid in the development of interventions to improve diabetes care and mitigate the negative medical consequences associated with it. Therefore, there is a need to measure repeated, real-time, and real-world features of this disease in youth. This approach is known as ecological momentary assessment (EMA), and it has considerable advantages to in-lab research. Thus, this viewpoint aims to describe EMA tools that have been used to collect data in the daily lives of youth with T1D and discuss studies that explored the nuances of T1D in daily life using these methods. This viewpoint focuses on the following EMA methods: continuous glucose monitoring, actigraphy, ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, personal digital assistants, smartphones, and phone-based systems. The viewpoint also discusses the benefits of using EMA methods to collect important data that might not otherwise be collected in the laboratory and the limitations of each tool, future directions of the field, and possible clinical implications for their use.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Masked hypertension defined as having normal office blood pressure (BP) but hypertension detected by continuous BP monitoring has been observed in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes (T1D). However, no study has evaluated whether masked hypertension is associated with glycemic variability (GV) in these patients. We hypothesized that masked hypertension might be associated with high GV in patients with T1D. METHODS This cross-sectional study performed continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in parallel with ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) in T1D patients aged 6-21 years. Patients who had known hypertension were excluded. CGM data from the same day as ABPM was calculated for GV including standard deviation (SD), coefficient of variation (CV) of glucose levels, and unstable glycemia which was defined as having a CV of glucose levels ≥ 36%. RESULTS Thirty-three patients had complete ABPM and CGM data. Mean (SD) age was 13.8 (3.8) years and mean (SD) duration of T1D was 5.4 (3.6) years. All patients had normal office BP, but ABPM showed masked hypertension in 9 patients (27%). In comparison with normotensive patients, patients with masked hypertension had longer duration of T1D (7.4 vs. 4.6 years, p = 0.049), higher insulin requirement (1.2 vs. 0.9 units/kg/day, p = 0.049), and higher SD of glucose (70.3 vs. 47.9 mg/dl, p = 0.038). Masked hypertension group had a greater number of patients (71% vs. 19%, p = 0.02) with unstable glycemia. Multivariate analysis revealed that unstable glycemia was associated with masked hypertension. CONCLUSIONS The presence of unstable glycemia in children and adolescents with T1D is associated with masked hypertension. Graphical abstract.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The incidence of pediatric metabolic syndrome (MS) has progressively increased. The incidence of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) has also increased. Thus, some children and adolescents with T1DM exhibit MS parameters. The aim of the study was to evaluate the presence of MS parameters in female adolescents with T1DM based on their nutritional status. METHODS We evaluated 44 adolescents with T1DM (consecutive non-randomized sample) aged between 14 and 18 years, who were on intensive therapy with insulin. Patients were subdivided according to their body mass index (BMI). Variables evaluated include: age, age at diagnosis, weight, height, BMI, abdominal circumference, blood pressure, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), abdominal and pelvic ultrasound and lipoprotein profile. Gynecological history data were also collected. RESULTS Lipid profile changes were identified in 32% of overweight or obese girls and in 23% of those with an adequate weight. Hypertension (HT) was observed in 19% of overweight or obese girls and in 14% of those with a BMI≥85th percentile (Pc). The only statistically significant difference between the groups was the presence of abdominal adiposity. All other features, including the presence of dyslipidemia, HT, abdominal adiposity, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), were present in both groups. CONCLUSIONS Although being overweight and/or obese aggravates the risk of cardiovascular disease, MS is already present in many young adolescents with T1DM of normal weight. It is necessary that MS risk factors are routinely evaluated in all diabetic adolescents, including those with an adequate BMI.

Abstract
These pediatric hypertension guidelines are an update to the 2004 "Fourth Report on the Diagnosis, Evaluation, and Treatment of High Blood Pressure in Children and Adolescents." Significant changes in these guidelines include (1) the replacement of the term "prehypertension" with the term "elevated blood pressure," (2) new normative pediatric blood pressure (BP) tables based on normal-weight children, (3) a simplified screening table for identifying BPs needing further evaluation, (4) a simplified BP classification in adolescents ≥13 years of age that aligns with the forthcoming American Heart Association and American College of Cardiology adult BP guidelines, (5) a more limited recommendation to perform screening BP measurements only at preventive care visits, (6) streamlined recommendations on the initial evaluation and management of abnormal BPs, (7) an expanded role for ambulatory BP monitoring in the diagnosis and management of pediatric hypertension, and (8) revised recommendations on when to perform echocardiography in the evaluation of newly diagnosed hypertensive pediatric patients (generally only before medication initiation), along with a revised definition of left ventricular hypertrophy. These guidelines include 30 Key Action Statements and 27 additional recommendations derived from a comprehensive review of almost 15 000 published articles between January 2004 and July 2016. Each Key Action Statement includes level of evidence, benefit-harm relationship, and strength of recommendation. This clinical practice guideline, endorsed by the American Heart Association, is intended to foster a patient- and family-centered approach to care, reduce unnecessary and costly medical interventions, improve patient diagnoses and outcomes, support implementation, and provide direction for future research.

Abstract
AIMS To evaluate relationships between early alterations in blood pressure and the progression of microvascular complications of diabetes in clinically-normotensive patients with type 1 diabetes (T1DM). METHODS In a prospective observational study of 85 normotensive T1DM patients without microalbuminuria, blood pressure (BP) was monitored over 24h using the ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) system at baseline and 7years later. Development or progression of microalbuminuria, retinopathy and hypertension was evaluated. RESULTS Initially, 20 patients (24%) were diagnosed with masked hypertension and 31 (37%) with non-dipper pattern as the only pathological findings. At 7years: 1) twenty-seven patients (32%) had progression of retinopathy related to the nocturnal diastolic blood pressure (BPD) (OR:1.122; p=0.034) and final non-dipper pattern (OR:5.857; p=0.005); 2) seven patients (10%) developed microalbuminuria for which nocturnal systolic blood pressure (BPS) was a risk factor (OR:1.129; p=0.007); 3) five of the normotensive patients (9%) progressed to hypertension; historic HbA1c (OR:2.767; p=0.046) and nocturnal BPD (OR:1.243; p=0.046) being the related risk factors. BPD level ≥65mmHg was associated with an increase in progression of retinopathy and hypertension. CONCLUSIONS In T1DM patients there is an elevated prevalence of BP alterations, detected using ABPM. Alterations in nocturnal BP predispose to development/progression of microvascular complications and overt hypertension.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the relationship between 24-h blood pressure (BP) measurements and diastolic heart function evaluated by Doppler tissue imaging and B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels in children with type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM). PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 32 diabetic and 18 healthy children were enrolled. Spectral Doppler analysis and tissue Doppler measurements were performed by conventional echocardiography. The 24-h ambulatory BP and serum BNP levels were measured. RESULTS Analysis of ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) recordings showed that median daytime diastolic BP load were significantly higher in diabetic patients compared to controls [12.35 (4.23-27.23) vs. 2.5 (0-8.7), p = 0.007]. Patients with elevated daytime systolic and diastolic BP loads had significantly higher BNP values compared to patients with normal BP load (31.4 ± 24.36 vs. 11.84 ± 11.25 pg/mL, p = 0.03 and 23.21 ± 15.12 vs. 12.12 ± 14.65 pg/mL, p = 0.03, respectively). Isovolemic contraction time (47.43 ± 7.84 vs. 42.27 ± 7.47, p = 0.045), isovolemic relaxation time (68.84 ± 10.43 vs. 58.77 ± 10.02, p = 0.02), and myocardial performance index (0.45 ± 0.10 vs. 0.37 ± 0.09, p = 0.02) as determined by tissue Doppler echocardiography were significantly high in diabetic patients compared to that of control cases. Ratio of mitral peak early diastolic flow velocity (E) to peak early diastolic myocardial velocities by tissue Doppler echocardiography (E') was also higher in patients with elevated daytime systolic BP load (E/E', 6.71 ± 1.97 vs. 4.91 ± 1.02, p = 0.04). CONCLUSION Elevated BP loads detected by 24-h ambulatory BP measurements in children with type 1 diabetes are associated with increased BNP levels and abnormal tissue Doppler echocardiography indices, indicating early stage cardiac dysfunction.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Adult diabetic patients have an abnormal cerebrovascular response to hypercapnia, but there are few studies focused on diabetes mellitus type 1 and cerebral blood flow in pediatric or adolescent patients. We hypothesize that young patients with diabetes exhibit a different response to hypercapnia than normal control counterparts. METHODS Using transcranial Doppler techniques, we compared young diabetic patients with healthy controls by measuring cerebral blood velocity before and during carbon dioxide challenge. RESULTS Subjects with diabetes had decreased cerebral blood velocity reactivity when compared with the control group (P = 0.005). CONCLUSION Our results suggest cerebrovascular dysfunction in diabetic patients beginning at an early age. The possibility of long-term implications for cerebrovascular disease demonstrates the need for further studies in the pediatric and adolescent diabetic population to better understand this prevalent condition.

Abstract
The aim of our study was to characterize the association of clinical and genetic risk factors such as: ACE genotype (rs17997552, rs1800764, rs4459609) and RGS2 (rs2746071) with the development of hypertension (HT) and non-dipping phenomenon in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). A total of 238 adolescents and young adults with T1DM-103 females and 135 males, aged 8-30 years (mean 17.35 ± 5.2) with diabetes duration 1-26 years (mean 7.72 ± 6.2), with mean HbA1c (IFCC) 58 ± 15 mmol/mmol-were subjected to 24-h ambulatory blood pressure measurements (ABPM). The results of the ABPM were analyzed in association with the polymorphisms of ACE and RGS2 genes and clinical data of patients. HT was recognized in 65 (27 %) and non-dipping in 111 (46.63 %) patients. In the multivariate analysis of factors predisposing to HT, the variables that remained significant were the following: male sex (OR 1.62; 95 % CI 1.171-2.250), non-dipping (OR 1.40; 95 % CI 1.03-1.90) and total cholesterol level (OR 1.01; 95 % CI 1.005-1.021). The only factor influencing non-dipping was the duration of diabetes-OR 1.09 (95 % CI 1.04-1.14). The patients displaying non-dipping have a twice increased risk of development of HT (OR 2.17; 95 % CI 1.21-3.89). There was no association between disturbances of blood pressure (BP) and genotypes of ACE: rs17997552, rs1800764, rs4459609 and RGS2: rs2746071. Clinical rather than genetic risk factors seem to be connected with BP disturbances in young patients with T1DM. Although we have identified representative groups of HT versus non-HT and dipping versus non-dipping subjects, the effect of genetic predisposition to the development of higher BP is too weak to be statistically significant.

Abstract
The prevalence of hypertension in children and adolescents is increasing, especially in obese and ethnic children. The adverse long-term effects of hypertension beginning in youth are known; therefore, it is important to identify young patients who need intervention. Unfortunately, measuring blood pressure (BP) is difficult due to the variety of techniques available and innate biologic variation in BP levels. Ambulatory BP monitoring may overcome some of the challenges clinicians face when attempting to categorize a young patient's BP levels. In this article, the authors review the use of ambulatory BP monitoring in pediatrics, discuss interpretation of ambulatory BP monitoring, and discuss gaps in knowledge in usage of this technique in the management of pediatric hypertension.
