SARS-CoV-2 Infection and Childhood Islet Autoimmunity

This cohort study examines whether there is a temporal association between SARS-CoV-2 infection and the development of islet autoimmunity among Australian children with a first-degree relative with type 1 diabetes.  

Hybrid-Closed loop system improves quality of life

New Insulin delivery technology improves quality of life and offers better glucose control in young people living with type 1 diabetes.

Cholesterol and blood pressure drugs help teens with diabetes

Researchers from the Children’s Diabetes Centre have had a lead role in a global adolescent Type 1 Diabetes study.

Perceived stress in mothers of children with and without islet and coeliac autoimmunity in the ENDIA study

We aimed to assess perceived stress and influencing factors in mothers with children at risk of type 1 diabetes and coeliac disease who did, or did not, develop islet autoantibodies or coeliac autoantibodies by 4 years of age.

Genomic responses during acute human anaphylaxis are characterized by upregulation of innate inflammatory gene networks

The aim of this study was to examine the gene response of white blood cells in severe allergic reactions to identify genes that could be targets to new drugs...

T-Cell Expression and Release of Kidney Injury Molecule-1 in Response to Glucose Variations Initiates Kidney Injury in Early Diabetes

Half of the mortality in diabetes is seen in individuals <50 years of age and commonly predicted by the early onset of diabetic kidney disease (DKD). In type 1 diabetes, increased urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) during adolescence defines this risk, but the pathological factors responsible remain unknown.

Pleural Plaques and the Risk of Lung Cancer in Asbestos-exposed Subjects

The presence of pleural plaques on radiologic imaging does not confer additional increase in the risk of lung cancer

Hypoglycaemia in Diabetes

Iatrogenic hypoglycaemia is one of the main limiting factors in the glycaemic management of diabetes. It causes negative biological, psychological, and social consequences in most people with type 1 diabetes and in many with advanced type 2 diabetes. This chapter explores physiological homeostatic mechanisms that prevent hypoglycaemia through glucose counter-regulation, before discussing specific acquired defects of glucose counter-regulation in diabetes, which provides an insight into risk factors for hypoglycaemia.
