Protein loads of 75 and 100 g resulted in lower glycaemic excursions than control in the 60-120 min postprandial interval, but higher excursions in the 180-300 min interval. In comparison with 20 g glucose, the large protein loads resulted in significantly delayed and sustained glucose excursions, commencing at 180 min and continuing to 5 h. Conclusions: Seventy-five grams or more of protein alone significantly increases postprandial glycaemia from 3 to 5 h in people with Type 1 diabetes mellitus using intensive insulin therapy. The glycaemic profiles resulting from high protein loads differ significantly from the excursion from glucose in terms of time to peak glucose and duration of the glycaemic excursion. This research supports recommendations for insulin dosing for large amounts of protein.]]> Wed 11 Apr 2018 17:03:56 AEST ]]> Optimizing the combination insulin bolus split for a high-fat, high-protein meal in children and adolescents using insulin pump therapy https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:31350 Wed 09 Feb 2022 15:55:23 AEDT ]]> High-protein meals require 30% additional insulin to prevent delayed postprandial hyperglycaemia https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:40131 1c < 65 mmol/mol (8.1%), received a 50 g protein, 30 g carbohydrate, low-fat (< 1 g) breakfast drink over five consecutive days at home. A standard insulin dose (100%) was compared with additional doses of 115, 130, 145 and 160% for the protein, in randomized order. Doses were commenced 15-min pre-drink and delivered over 3 h using a combination bolus with 65% of the standard dose given up front. Postprandial glycaemia was assessed by 4 h of continuous glucose monitoring. Results: The 100% dosing resulted in postprandial hyperglycaemia. From 120 min, ≥ 130% doses resulted in significantly lower postprandial glycaemic excursions compared with 100% (P < 0.05). A 130% dose produced a mean (sd) glycaemic excursion that was 4.69 (2.42) mmol/l lower than control, returning to baseline by 4 h (P < 0.001). From 120 min, there was a significant increase in the risk of hypoglycaemia compared with control for 145% [odds ratio (OR) 25.4, 95% confidence interval (CI) 5.5–206; P < 0.001) and 160% (OR 103, 95% CI 19.2–993; P < 0.001). Some 81% (n = 21) of participants experienced hypoglycaemia following a 160% dose, whereas 58% (n = 15) experienced hypoglycaemia following a 145% dose. There were no hypoglycaemic events reported with 130%. Conclusions: The addition of 30% more insulin to a standard dose for a high-protein meal, delivered using a combination bolus, improves postprandial glycaemia without increasing the risk of hypoglycaemia.]]> Fri 15 Jul 2022 09:55:16 AEST ]]>
