Introduction: Flash glucose monitoring expansion to an increasing number of patients with type 1 diabetes, coupled with its increased accuracy and ease of use, has increased available data on glycemic control in this population and allows detection of improvement areas in diabetes education and treatment.Objective: To analyze main parameters standardized by ATTD consensus (2019) in our population of patients with type 1 diabetes using flash glucose monit...

Objectives: To analyze the data of patients seen at the Diabetes and Pregnancy Unit, assessing the frequency of pregnancy planning and whether there are differences in the degree of metabolic control before and during pregnancy, as well as in perinatal outcomes with respect to those who do not plan. All women of childbearing age with Pregestational Diabetes Mellitus(PGDM) should receive preconception counseling to optimize glycemic control, since preconception control is assoc...

Introduction: In May 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Spanish Group of Diabetes and Pregnancy published a consensus document establishing the alternative diagnostic criteria for gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in case of impossibility to perform the two-step traditional approach due to the COVID-19 sanitary emergency. This study aims to compare different characteristics of pregnant women who tested positive in the O’Sullivan test in the same pregnancy trimester...

Introduction: Vitamin D is considered a fat-soluble vitamin and a fundamental prohormone in mineral and bone metabolism, with an immunoregulatory, cardiovascular and neuroprotective effect, among others. Vitamin D can be found as vitamin D2 or ergocalciferol and vitamin D3 or cholecalciferol. The main source of vitamin D comes from ultraviolet radiation in sunlight, but it is also obtained through food. Vitamin D deficiency is very prevalent in Europe, with a significant peak ...

Introduction: Overt thyroid dysfunction in pregnancy without an early diagnosis and treatment may lead to an increased risk of adverse maternal and fetal outcomes. In this study, our goal was to assess the results of the development of a laboratory alerting system for the diagnosis of thyroid dysfunction in the first trimester of pregnancy. Material and methods: Observational retrospective study evaluating clinical and biochemical data from pregnant wome...

Introduction: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is the metabolic disorder most frequently associated with pregnancy, presenting important maternal and fetal implications. Strict glycemic control through lifestyle measures and/or pharmacotherapy is essential to achieve adequate obstetric-perinatal results. The objective of this study is to compare baseline characteristics and perinatal results in patients diagnosed with GDM after performing oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) ...

Introduction and Objectives: Preperitoneal fat is an ectopic visceral adipose tissue with a significant proinflammatory metabolic impact. The objective of this study is to measure preperitoneal fat by nutritional ultrasound at discharge, 3 months and 6 months in a cohort of patients who required admission to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) due to severe COVID-19 pneumonia, and to analyze the differences based on the presence or not of previous DM.Material ...

Introduction: Achieving glycemic goals remains a challenge for many people with T1D despite recent technological advances. Integrated systems and closed loops pumps have shown significant improvements in glycemic control in clinical studies as well as in real life conditions.Objective: Assess the performance of the systems Tandem Control-IQ and DIABELOOP in people with T1D comparing the glucosa readings before and after having the device for 14 days....
