Statistical models were adjusted, among others, for technology use. Results: Sixty-five centers provided telemedicine during COVID-19. Among those centers naive to telemedicine before the pandemic (n = 22), four continued only face-to-face visits. Centers that transitioned partially to telemedicine (n = 32) showed a steady increase in HbA1c between 2018 and 2021 (p < 0.001). Those that transitioned mainly to telemedicine (n = 33 %) improved HbA1c in 2021 compared to 2018 (p < 0.001). Conclusions: Changes to models of care delivery driven by the pandemic showed significant associations with HbA1c shortly after the pandemic outbreak and 2 years of follow-up. The association appeared independent of the concomitant increase in technology use among youth with type 1 diabetes.]]> Wed 17 Apr 2024 15:23:53 AEST ]]> Characteristics of men classified at high-risk for type 2 diabetes mellitus using the AUSDRISK screening tool https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:22229 90cm; 93%), age (>44 years; 79%), physical activity level (<150minwk-1; 59%), family history of diabetes (39%) and previously high blood glucose levels (32%). Men with AUSDRISK scores ≥20 had higher (mean±SD) HbA1C (6.0±0.4% [42±4.4mmol.mol-1], P <0.001), FPG (5.3±0.6mmol.L-1, P =0.001) and waist circumference (113.2±9.8cm, P =0.026) than men with scores of 12-15. Mean FPG for the sample was 5.0±0.6mmol.L-1, whereas mean HbA1C was 5.8±0.5% [40±5.5mmol.mol-1]. Pre-diabetes prevalence was 70% and metabolic syndrome prevalence was 62%. Conclusions: The AUSDRISK tool identified men who were mostly older than 44, and had large waist circumferences and elevated HbA1C. These findings provide evidence supporting the usefulness of the AUSDRISK screening tool for T2DM screening in clinical and research settings.]]> Wed 11 Apr 2018 12:50:49 AEST ]]> Zinc supplementation for improving glucose handling in pre-diabetes: a double blind randomized placebo controlled pilot study https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:30265 p < 0.001) as well as compared to their own baseline (5.37 ± 0.20 mmol/L vs 5.8 ± 0.09, p < 0.001). Beta cell function, insulin sensitivity and insulin resistance all showed a statistically significant improvement as well. Conclusion: To our knowledge this is the first trial to show an improvement in glucose handling using HOMA parameters in participants with prediabetes. Larger randomized controlled trials are warranted to confirm these findings and to explore clinical endpoints.]]> Wed 06 Apr 2022 14:00:37 AEST ]]> Healthy weight and overweight adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus do not meet recommendations for daily physical activity and sleep https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:54313 Tue 20 Feb 2024 14:29:22 AEDT ]]> Physical activity and health-related quality of life in individuals with prediabetes https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:9378 Sat 24 Mar 2018 10:45:35 AEDT ]]> Disturbed hemodynamic cardiac exercise stress test response in non-smoking, normolipidemic, normotensive, diabetic subjects https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:12193 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:08:27 AEDT ]]> Severely obese people with diabetes experience impaired emotional well-being associated with socioeconomic disadvantage: results from diabetes MILES - Australia https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:19393 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:52:04 AEDT ]]> High burden of diabetic foot infections in the top end of Australia: an emerging health crisis (DEFINE study) https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:25926 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:27:48 AEDT ]]> Flexible eating and flexible insulin dosing in patients with diabetes: results of an intensive self-management course https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:4848 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:18:52 AEDT ]]> Testing for gestational diabetes during the COVID-19 pandemic.
