- Abstract
Aims/hypothesis: This study aimed to compare the increase in plasma glucose after a subcutaneous injection of 200 μg glucagon given after 45 min of cycling with resting (study 1) and to investigate the effects of glucagon when injected before compared with after 45 min of cycling (study 2). We hypothesised that: (1) the glucose response to glucagon would be similar after cycling and resting; and (2) giving glucagon before the activity would prevent the exercise-induced fall in blood glucose during exercise and for 2 h afterwards., Methods: Fourteen insulin-pump-treated individuals with type 1 diabetes completed three visits in a randomised, placebo-controlled, participant-blinded crossover study. They were allocated by sealed envelopes. Baseline values were (mean and range): HbA
1c 54 mmol/mol (43-65 mmol/mol) or 7.1% (6.1-8.1%); age 45 years (23-66 years); BMI 26 kg/m2 (21-30 kg/m2 ); and diabetes duration 26 years (8-51 years). At each visit, participants consumed a standardised breakfast 2 h prior to 45 min of cycling or resting. A subcutaneous injection of 200 μg glucagon was given before or after cycling or after resting. The glucose response to glucagon was compared after cycling vs resting (study 1) and before vs after cycling (study 2)., Results: The glucose response to glucagon was higher after cycling compared with after resting (mean ± SD incremental peak: 2.6 ± 1.7 vs 1.8 ± 2.0 mmol/l, p = 0.02). As expected, plasma glucose decreased during cycling (-3.1 ± 2.8 mmol/l) but less so when glucagon was given before cycling (-0.9 ± 2.8 mmol/l, p = 0.002). The number of individuals reaching glucose values ≤3.9 mmol/l was the same on the 3 days., Conclusions/interpretation: Moderate cycling for 45 min did not impair the glucose response to glucagon compared with the glucose response after resting. The glucose fall during cycling was diminished by a pre-exercise injection of 200 μg glucagon; however, no significant difference was seen in the number of events of hypoglycaemia., Trial Registration: Clinicaltrials.gov NCT02882737 FUNDING: The study was funded by the Danish Diabetes Academy founded by Novo Nordisk foundation and by an unrestricted grant from Zealand Pharma.- Published

- Abstract
Background: Lifestyle interventions targeting obese pregnant women often result in modest reduction in gestational weight gain, pregnancy complications and related risk factors. Examining adherence to the intervention can, however, provide valuable information on the importance of the different factors targeted., Objective: To evaluate improvements and relevance of different dietary factors targeted with respect to gestational weight gain in a 3-arm Randomised Controlled Trial (n=342) among obese pregnant women with BMI≥30 kg/m2., Methods: Randomisation 1:1:1 to either hypocaloric Mediterranean type of diet and physical activity intervention (D+PA); physical activity intervention alone (PA); or control (C). Diet was assessed at baseline (weeks 11-14) and endpoint (weeks 36-37) using a validated food frequency questionnaire., Results: During the intervention women in the D+PA group significantly lowered their intakes of added sugars and saturated fat and increased their protein intake by ~1% of total energy compared to controls. Of these dietary variables only intakes of added sugar appeared to be related to GWG, while no association was observed for saturated fat or protein. Further analyses revealed that foods that contributed to intake of added sugars, including sweets, snacks, cakes, and soft drinks were strongly associated with weight gain, with women consuming sweets ≥2/day having 5.4 kg (95% CI 2.1-8.7) greater weight gain than those with a low (<1wk) intake. The results for soft drinks were more conflicting, as women with high weight gain tended to favour artificially sweetened soft drinks., Conclusion: In our sample of obese pregnant women, craving for sweets, snacks, and soft drinks strongly predicts GWG. Emphasis on reducing intakes of these foods may be more relevant for limiting gestational weight gain than encouraging strict compliance to more specific diets., Trial Registration: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT01345149.

- Abstract
Objective: The objective of the study was to assess physical activity intervention assessed by a pedometer with or without dietary intervention on gestational weight gain (GWG) in obese pregnant women by comparing with a control group., Study Design: This study was a randomized controlled trial of 425 obese pregnant women comparing 3 groups: (1) PA plus D, physical activity and dietary intervention (n = 142); (2) PA, physical activity intervention (n = 142); and (3) C, a control group receiving standard care (n = 141). All participants routinely in gestational weeks 11-14 had an initial dietary counseling session and were advised to limit GWG to less than 5 kg. Physical activity intervention included encouragement to increase physical activity, aiming at a daily step count of 11,000, monitored by pedometer assessment on 7 consecutive days every 4 weeks. Dietary intervention included follow-up on a hypocaloric Mediterranean-style diet. Instruction was given by a dietician every 2 weeks. The primary outcome measure was GWG, and the secondary outcome measures were complications of pregnancy and delivery and neonatal outcome., Results: The study was completed by 389 patients (92%). Median values of GWG (ranges) were lower in each of the intervention groups (PA plus D, 8.6 [-9.6 to 34.1] kg, and group PA, 9.4 [-3.4 to 28.2] kg) compared with the control group (10.9 [-4.4 to 28.7] kg [PA+D vs C]; P = .01; PA vs C; P = .042). No significant difference was found between the 2 intervention groups. In a multivariate analysis, physical activity intervention decreased GWG by a mean of 1.38 kg (P = .040). The Institute of Medicine's recommendations for GWG were more frequently followed in the intervention groups., Conclusion: Physical activity intervention assessed by pedometer with or without dietary follow-up reduced GWG compared with controls in obese pregnant women., (Copyright © 2014 Mosby, Inc.

- Abstract
Objective: To examine the representativeness of participants attending a lifestyle intervention study addressing obese pregnant women., Methods: Retrospective comparison of baseline data, attendance to oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) during pregnancy, and pregnancy outcome in eligible women stratified according to study participation. Of 750 eligible women with a self-reported BMI > 30 kg/m(2), and a live singleton pregnancy, 510 were eligible for inclusion and 425 were randomized to either active intervention (n= 284) or to standard obstetric care (n= 141) including two standard OGTT. The 85 women who declined participation or were excluded due to competing diseases and 240 women who did not respond to the initial invitation received the same standard care., Results: The randomized women had similar BMI but a lower parity and age, and were more frequently non-smokers, born in Denmark and married or cohabitating with their partner than the non-participants. Women participating in the trial had a higher compliance to the second OGTT compared to non-participants, also after correcting for age and nationality. There was no difference in pregnancy outcome, i.e., fetal weight and length, gestational age as well as mode of delivery., Conclusion: Women declining participation in a randomized lifestyle intervention study in pregnancy have characteristics indicating they are those who might benefit the most from lifestyle intervention.

- Abstract
Objective: To compare physical activity as assessed by a pedometer in obese and normal-weight pregnant women at different gestational ages. To evaluate the use of a pedometer in pregnancy., Design: Cross-sectional study., Setting: Department of obstetrics and gynecology in a university hospital in Copenhagen., Population: 338 pregnant women, 175 normal-weight women with body mass index (BMI) 20-25 kg/m(2) and 163 obese women with BMI > or = 30 kg/m(2)., Methods: Physical activity was assessed by a pedometer (Yamax Digiwalker SW-700/701) on seven consecutive days in six different groups: normal-weight or obese at gestational ages 11-13, 18-22, and 36-38, and expressed as median number of daily steps during a whole week, working days, and weekends., Main Outcome Measures: Relation between BMI and physical activity during pregnancy and compliance with wearing the pedometer., Results: Noncompliance was more frequent in obese than in normal-weight women (19 vs. 10%, p < 0.001). Physical activity was lower in obese women at all gestational ages (6,482, 7,446, 4,626 steps/day in obese vs. 7,558, 8,865, 6,289 steps/day in normal-weight, p < 0.05-0.11). The greatest difference between obese and normal-weight women was seen during weekends. The level of physical activity was higher in both groups at mid-gestation than during earlier and later gestational ages., Conclusion: Physical activity in pregnant women can be assessed by the pedometer and the method was well accepted by the women; however, the compliance was lower in the obese. The level of physical activity differs between different gestational groups and is lower in obese than in normal-weight women, especially during leisure time.

LOW-carbohydrate diet ,TYPE 1 diabetes ,INSULIN pumps - Abstract
Context Current guidelines for exercise-related glucose management focus on reducing bolus and/or basal insulin doses and considering carbohydrate intake. Yet far less attention has been paid to the potential role of other macronutrients alongside carbohydrates on glucose dynamics around exercise. Objective To investigate the effects of a low-carbohydrate-high-protein (LCHP) compared with a high-carbohydrate-low-protein (HCLP) pre-exercise meal on the metabolic, hormonal, and physiological responses to exercise in adults with insulin pump–treated type 1 diabetes. Methods Fourteen adults (11 women, 3 men) with insulin pump–treated type 1 diabetes (median [range] HbA
1c of 50 [43-59] mmol/mol (6.7% [6.1%-7.5%]), age of 49 [25-65] years, and body mass index of 24.0 [19.3-27.1] kg/m2 ) completed an unblinded, 2-arm, randomized, crossover study. Participants ingested isocaloric meals that were either LCHP (carbohydrate 21%, protein 52%, fat 27%) or HCLP (carbohydrate 52%, protein 21%, fat 27%) 90 minutes prior to undertaking 45 minutes of cycling at moderate intensity. Meal insulin bolus was dosed according to meal carbohydrate content but reduced by 25%. Basal insulin rates were reduced by 35% from meal ingestion to end of exercise. Results Around exercise the coefficient of variability was lower during LCHP (LCHP: 14.5 ± 5.3 vs HCLP: 24.9 ± 7.7%, P =.001). Over exercise, LCHP was associated with a lesser drop (LCHP: Δ−1.49 ± 1.89 vs HCLP: Δ−3.78 ± 1.95 mmol/L, P =.001). Mean insulin concentration was 30% lower during exercise for LCHP compared with HCLP (LCHP: 25.5 ± 11.0 vs HCLP: 36.5 ± 15.9 mU/L, P <.001). Conclusion Ingesting a LCHP pre-exercise meal lowered plasma glucose variability around exercise and diminished the drop in plasma glucose over exercise. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

Continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) are valuable tools for improving glycemic control, yet their accuracy might be influenced by physical activity. This study sought to assess the accuracy of the three latest factory-calibrated CGM systems available in Europe at the time the study was conducted, both during aerobic exercise and in typical daily scenarios. The accuracy evaluation, based on metrics such as the median absolute relative difference (MARD) and point and rate error-grid analyses (PEGA and REGA), involved 13 adults with type 1 diabetes. Participants wore all sensors during a 1 h in-clinic exercise session followed by a subsequent 3-day home period, with blood glucose measurements serving as reference values in both contexts. During exercise, no statistically significant differences in MARD were observed (Dexcom G6: 12.6%, Guardian 4: 10.7%, and Freestyle Libre 2: 17.2%; p = 0.31), and similarly, no significant differences emerged in PEGA-zone-AB (100%, 100%, 96.8%; p = 0.37). Nevertheless, Freestyle Libre 2 showed comparatively diminished accuracy in estimating glucose trends during exercise (REGA-zone-AB: 100%, 93.0%, 73.3%; p = 0.0003). In the home environment, Freestyle Libre 2 exhibited a significantly higher MARD when compared to the other systems (10.2%, 11.9%, 16.7%, p = 0.02). Overall, Dexcom G6 and Guardian 4 demonstrated superior accuracy in both exercise and daily life scenarios compared to Freestyle Libre 2. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Aims: To profile acute glycaemic dynamics during graded exercise testing (GXT) and explore the influence of glycaemic indicators on the physiological responses to GXT in adults with type 1 diabetes using insulin pump therapy. Methods: This was a retrospective analysis of pooled data from four clinical trials with identical GXT protocols. Data were obtained from 45 adults with type 1 diabetes using insulin pumps [(30 females); haemoglobin A1c 59.5 ± 0.5 mmol/mol (7.6 ± 1.0%); age 49.7 ± 13.0 years; diabetes duration 31.2 ± 13.5 years; V̇O2peak 29.5 ± 8.0 ml/min/kg]. Integrated cardiopulmonary variables were collected continuously via spiroergometry. Plasma glucose was obtained every 3 min during GXT as well as the point of volitional exhaustion. Data were assessed via general linear modelling techniques with age and gender adjustment. Significance was accepted at p ≤.05. Results: Despite increasing duration and intensity, plasma glucose concentrations remained similar to rest values (8.8 ± 2.3 mmol/L) throughout exercise (p =.419) with an overall change of +0.3 ± 1.1 mmol/L. Starting glycaemia bore no influence on subsequent GXT responses. Per 1% increment in haemoglobin A1c there was an associated decrease in V̇O2peak of 3.8 ml/min/kg (p <.001) and powerpeak of 0.33 W/kg (p <.001) concomitant with attenuations in indices of peripheral oxygen extraction [(O2 pulse) −1.2 ml/beat, p =.023]. Conclusion: In adults with long‐standing type 1 diabetes using insulin pump therapy, circulating glucose remains stable during a graded incremental cycle test to volitional exhaustion. Glycaemic indicators are inversely associated with aerobic rate, oxygen economy and mechanical output across the exercise intensity spectrum. An appreciation of these nexuses may help guide appropriate decision making for optimal exercise management strategies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
Although important for digestion and metabolism in repose, the healthy endocrine pancreas also plays a key role in facilitating energy transduction around physical exercise. During exercise, decrements in pancreatic b-cell mediated insulin release opposed by increments in a-cell glucagon secretion stand chief among the hierarchy of glucose-counterregulatory responses to decreasing plasma glucose levels. As a control hub for several major glucose regulatory hormones, the endogenous pancreas is therefore essential in ensuring glucose homeostasis. Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is pathophysiological condition characterised by a destruction of pancreatic b-cells resulting in pronounced aberrations in glucose control. Yet beyond the beta-cell perhaps less considered is the impact of T1D on all other pancreatic endocrine cell responses during exercise and whether they differ to those observed in healthy man. For physicians, understanding how the endocrine pancreas responds to exercise in people with and without T1D may serve as a useful model from which to identify whether there are clinically relevant adaptations that need consideration for glycaemic management. From a physiological perspective, delineating differences or indeed similarities in such responses may help inform appropriate exercise test interpretation and subsequent program prescription. With more complex advances in automated insulin delivery (AID) systems and emerging data on exercise algorithms, a timely update is warranted in our understanding of the endogenous endocrine pancreatic responses to physical exercise in people with and without T1D. By placing our focus here, we may be able to offer a nexus of better understanding between the clinical and engineering importance of AIDs requirements during physical exercise.

Maternal obesity may lead to epigenetic alterations in the offspring and might thereby contribute to disease later in life. We investigated whether a lifestyle intervention in pregnant women with obesity is associated with epigenetic variation in cord blood and body composition in the offspring. Genome-wide DNA methylation was analyzed in cord blood from 208 offspring from the Treatment of Obese Pregnant women (TOP)-study, which includes pregnant women with obesity randomized to lifestyle interventions comprised of physical activity with or without dietary advice versus control subjects (standard of care). DNA methylation was altered at 379 sites, annotated to 370 genes, in cord blood from offspring of mothers following a lifestyle intervention versus control subjects (false discovery rate [FDR] <5%) when using the Houseman reference-free method to correct for cell composition, and three of these sites were significant based on Bonferroni correction. These 370 genes are overrepresented in gene ontology terms, including response to fatty acids and adipose tissue development. Offspring of mothers included in a lifestyle intervention were born with more lean mass compared with control subjects. Methylation at 17 sites, annotated to, for example, DISC1, GBX2, HERC2, and HUWE1, partially mediates the effect of the lifestyle intervention on lean mass in the offspring (FDR <5%). Moreover, 22 methylation sites were associated with offspring BMI z scores during the first 3 years of life (P < 0.05). Overall, lifestyle interventions in pregnant women with obesity are associated with epigenetic changes in offspring, potentially influencing the offspring's lean mass and early growth.

The physical and psychological benefits of exercise are particularly pertinent to people with type 1 diabetes (T1D). The variability in subcutaneous insulin absorption and the delay in offset and onset in glucose lowering action impose limitations, given the rapidly varying insulin requirements with exercise. Simultaneously, there are challenges to glucose monitoring. Consequently, those with T1D are less likely to exercise because of concerns regarding glucose instability. While glucose control with exercise can be enhanced using automated insulin delivery (AID), all commercially available AID systems remain limited by the pharmacokinetics of subcutaneous insulin delivery. Although glycemic responses may vary with exercises of differing intensities and durations, the principles providing the foundation for guidelines include minimization of insulin on board before exercise commencement, judicious and timely carbohydrate supplementation, and when possible, a reduction in insulin delivered in anticipation of planned exercise. There is an increasing body of evidence in support of superior glucose control with AID over manual insulin dosing in people in T1D who wish to exercise. The MiniMed™ 780G AID system varies basal insulin delivery with superimposed automated correction boluses. It incorporates a temporary (elevated glucose) target of 8.3 mmol/L (150 mg/dL) and when it is functioning, the autocorrection boluses are stopped. As the device has recently become commercially available, there are limited data assessing glucose control with the MiniMed™ 780G under exercise conditions. Importantly, when exercise was planned and implemented within consensus guidelines, %time in range and %time below range targets were met. A practical approach to exercising with the device is provided with illustrative case studies. While there are limitations to spontaneity imposed on any AID device due to the pharmacokinetics associated with the subcutaneous delivery of current insulin formulations, the MiniMed™ 780G system provides people with T1D an excellent option for exercising safely if the appropriate strategies are implemented.

Aim: To assess the effectiveness of an automated insulin delivery (AID) system around exercise in adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D). Methods: This was a three-period, randomized, crossover trial involving 10 adults with T1D (hemoglobin A1C; HbA1c: 8.3% ± 0.6% [67 ± 6 mmol/mol]) using an AID system (MiniMed 780G; Medtronic USA). Participants performed 45 min of moderate intensity continuous exercise 90 min after consuming a carbohydrate-based meal using three strategies: (1) a 100% dose of bolus insulin with exercise announcement immediately at exercise onset "spontaneous exercise" (SE) or a 25% reduced dose of bolus insulin with exercise announcement either (2) 90 min (AE90) or (3) 45 min (AE45) before exercise. Venous-derived plasma glucose (PG) taken in 5 and 15 min intervals over a 3 h collection period was stratified into the percentage of time spent below (TBR [<3.9 mmol/L]), time in range (TIR [3.9–10 mmol/L]), and time above range (TAR [ > 10 mmol/L]). In instances of hypoglycemia, PG data were carried forward for the remainder of the visit. Results: Overall, TBR was greatest during SE (SE: 22.9 ± 22.2, AE90: 1.1 ± 1.9, AE45: 7.8% ± 10.3%, P = 0.029). Hypoglycemia during exercise occurred in four participants in SE but one in both AE90 and AE45 (ꭓ2 [2] = 3.600, P = 0.165). In the 1 h postexercise period, AE90 was associated with higher TIR (SE: 43.8 ± 49.6, AE90: 97.9 ± 5.9, AE45: 66.7% ± 34.5%, P = 0.033), lower TBR (SE: 56.3 ± 49.6, AE90: 2.1 ± 5.9, AE45: 29.2% ± 36.5%, P = 0.041) with the greatest source of discrepancy observed relative to SE. Conclusion: In adults using an AID system and undertaking postprandial exercise, a strategy involving both bolus insulin dose reduction and exercise announcement 90 min before commencing the activity may be most effective in minimizing dysglycemia. The study was registered as a clinical trial (Clinical Trials Register; NCT05134025) [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In an in-patient switch study, 10 adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D) performed 45 min of moderate-intensity exercise on 2 occasions: (1) when using their usual insulin pump (UP) and (2) after transitioning to automated insulin delivery (AID) treatment (MiniMed™ 780G). Consensus glucose management guidelines for performing exercise were applied. Plasma glucose concentrations measured over a 3-h monitoring period were stratified into time below range (TBR, <3.9 mmol/L), time in range (TIR, 3.9–10.0 mmol/L), and time above range (TAR, >10.0 mmol/L). Overall, TBR (UP: 11 ± 21 vs. AID: 3% ± 10%, P = 0.413), TIR (UP: 53 ± 27 vs. AID: 66% ± 39%, P = 0.320), and TAR (UP: 37 ± 34 vs. AID: 31% ± 41%, P = 0.604) were similar between arms. A proportionately low number of people experienced exercise-induced hypoglycemia (UP: n = 2 vs. AID: n = 1, P = 1.00). In conclusion, switching to AID therapy did not alter patterns of glycemia around sustained moderate-intensity exercise in adults with T1D. Clinical Trial Registration number: NCT05133765.
