Improvement in HbA1c following change from three times daily injections to a basal bolus insulin regimen in the Lothian paediatric diabetes population

Bath L E , Noyes K J , Mitchell R T , Grosser S

Background: The need for improved glycaemic control in children with type 1 diabetes in Scotland is well recognised; DIABAUD 3 identified that only 9.7% achieved the national HbA1c target.Aim: To evaluate whether a change from three times daily injection regimen to a basal bolus regimen with carbohydrate counting at diagnosis will result in an improvement in immediate and longer term glycaemic control.Method: We included children &...

Context: In rodents, in-utero exposure to the exogenous oestrogen diethylstilboestrol (DES) results in reproductive abnormalities in male offspring. It has been proposed that similar anti-androgenic effects also occur in the human fetal testis following oestrogen exposure.Objective: Determine effects of DES exposure on testosterone production by normally growing human fetal testis xenografts.Design: Human fetal testes (15&...
