Background:
Automated insulin delivery (AID) systems studies are upsurging, half of which were published in the last 5 years. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AID systems in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM).
Methods:
We searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and ClinicalTrials.gov until August 31, 2023. Randomized clinical trials that compared AID systems with other insulin-based treatments in patients with T1DM were considered eligible. Studies characteristics and glycemic metrics was extracted by three researchers independently.
Results:
Sixty-five trials (3,623 patients) were included. The percentage of time in range (TIR) was 11.74% (95% confidence interval [CI], 9.37 to 14.12; P<0.001) higher with AID systems compared with control treatments. Patients on AID systems had more pronounced improvement of time below range when diabetes duration was more than 20 years (–1.80% vs. –0.86%, P=0.031) and baseline glycosylated hemoglobin lower than 7.5% (–1.93% vs. –0.87%, P=0.033). Dual-hormone full closed-loop systems revealed a greater improvement in TIR compared with hybrid closed-loop systems (–19.64% vs. –10.87%). Notably, glycemia risk index (GRI) (–3.74; 95% CI, –6.34 to –1.14; P<0.01) was also improved with AID therapy.
Conclusion
AID systems showed significant advantages compared to other insulin-based treatments in improving glucose control represented by TIR and GRI in patients with T1DM, with more favorable effect in euglycemia by dual-hormone full closedloop systems as well as less hypoglycemia for patients who are within target for glycemic control and have longer diabetes duration.

Objective:To examine the effect of cumulative hemoglobin A 1c (HbA 1c) levels and insulin dosage on insulin resistance (IR)-related metabolic disturbances in newly diagnosed patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D). Methods:This retrospective cohort study included T1D patients admitted to the Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from November 2015 to March 2023. Clinical data collected comprised age, sex, disease duration, insulin dosage, body mass index, waist circumference, blood pressure, HbA 1c levels, islet autoantibodies, and fasting blood lipid profiles. IR-related metabolic disturbances assessed were overweight, obesity, central obesity, hypertension, and dyslipidemia. Cox regression and cluster analyses were applied to assess the influence of cumulative HbA 1c and insulin dosage on these metabolic disturbances. Results:A total of 235 patients were included, with 97 males (41.3%) and 138 females (58.7%). The median age was 19.8 (13.3, 31.1) years, and the median follow-up duration was 30.8 (20.8, 45.6) months. During follow-up, 41.6% (72/173) of patients developed IR-related metabolic disturbances. Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that a cumulative HbA 1c ≥60 mmol/mol was an independent risk factor for any IR-related metabolic disturbance [ HR (95% CI): 1.739 (1.067-2.835) ] and for triglyceride abnormalities [ HR (95% CI): 3.277 (1.176-9.127)]. Additionally, a cumulative insulin dosage ≥0.5 U·kg -1·d -1 was identified as an independent risk factor for overweight, obesity, or central obesity [ HR (95% CI): 2.374 (1.059-5.323)]. Cluster analysis further identified that patients with higher levels of cumulative HbA 1c and insulin dosage, particularly those with adolescent-onset diabetes, had the highest likelihood of developing hypertension ( HR=2.460, 95% CI 1.008-6.005), overweight/obesity/central obesity ( HR=2.707, 95% CI 1.062-6.900), triglyceride abnormalities ( HR=5.495, 95% CI 1.842-16.391), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol abnormalities ( HR=11.054, 95% CI 4.107-29.751), and any IR-related metabolic disturbance ( HR=5.833, 95% CI 2.602-13.077). Conclusions:Elevated cumulative HbA 1c and insulin dosage levels in T1D patients are associated with an increased risk of developing IR-related metabolic disturbances. These findings underscore the urgent need for novel therapeutic strategies tailored to this population.

Objective To investigate the mechanism of Astragali Complanati Semen in the prevention and treatment of hyperlipidemia;To provide theoretical basis for its clinical application.Methods The active components of Astragali Complanati Semen were retrieved and screened through TCMSP,TCMID and TDT databases to obtain the action targets of the active components.Hyperlipidemia targets were obtained through GeneCards,DisGeNET,and TTD databases,and the drug active component targets were intersected with hyperlipidemia targets.Cytoscape 3.9.1 software and STRING database were used to construct active component-target network and protein-protein interaction network,screening for major active components and core targets.GO and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis was performed using the DAVID database,and the CB-Dock platform was used for molecular docking.HepG2 cells were induced to construct a high-fat cell model using oleic acid and palmitic acid,and intervened with Astragali Complanati Semen freeze-dried powder solution.The mRNA expression of the core target was detected by RT-qPCR.Results A total of 10 active components of Astragali Complanati Semen and 67 potential action targets of hyperlipidemia were identified,involving signaling pathways such as AGE-RAGE,lipid metabolism,HIF-1,etc.Experimental results showed that intervention with Astragali Complanati Semen could reduce lipid accumulation in the high-lipid cell model,with an optimal intervention concentration of 500 μg/mL;RT-qPCR revealed significant down-regulation of TNFα,IL6,AKT1,PPARG,and other genes after intervention with Astragali Complanati Semen.Conclusion Astragali Complanati Semen exerts lipid-regulating effects through multiple targets and pathways,providing a basis for its application in the prevention and treatment of hyperlipidemia.
