What’s New in Paediatric T1DM TCH Paediatric Multidisciplinary Diabetes Team 10 July 2013 Learning objectives • Recognise clinical signs and symptoms to allow for the earliest possible diagnosis and referral of children with new-onset T1DM. • Describe current insulins and regimen options available in 2013. • Develop an understanding of the various technologies available for the management of T1DM at home. • Understand strategies for and review sickday management plans for children with T1DM in your practice. Case study1 • 4 yr old boy • GP presentation: 3 week history of weight loss, polyuria and polydipsia. • 2 day history of sore throat • Woke up in the morning with ‘heavy breathing’ • Past medical and family history were unremarkable. Case study2 Physical examination • • • • • • • Alert GCS score 15/15 Kussmaul breathing present PR 136 bpm, RR 44, BP 92/58 >5% dehydration Dry cracked lips Weight 16kg (~3kg weight loss in 4 weeks) • Pharyngitis Case study3 • At GP surgery: BGL 25mmol/L – referred to ED In ED: • Capillary blood gas: pH 7.18, bicarbonate (HCO3) 12 mmol/L, BGL 25 mmol/L, Na 136 mmol/L (corrected = 142) , K 4.9 mmol/L Corrected Na = measured Na + 0.3 (glucose – 5.5) Case study4 Management: • 10ml/kg bolus Normal saline • Re-assessed: PR 118, RR 36, BP 96/58 • IV insulin infusion: 0.1U/kg/hr • Fluids: N/S + 40mmol/L KCL at maintenance + 5% replacement over 48 hrs • Transferred to HDU – further management as per DKA protocol Case study5 At resolution of ketoacidosis: • Initiated on MDI: Levemir at bedtime; Novorapid with meals using an insulin dosing card. • DNE / Dietician / Social work involvement • Discharged home on day 5 with nightly contact with on-call Paediatric Endocrinologist for dose adjustments Classification of Diabetes Diabetes Care 2013;36(suppl 1):S11. Criteria for diagnosis of Diabetes A1C ≥6.5% OR Fasting plasma glucose ≥7.0 mmol/L OR 2-h plasma glucose ≥11.1 mmol/L during an OGTT OR A random plasma glucose ≥11.1 mmol/L Diabetes Care 2013;36(suppl 1):S13; Table 2. Criteria for Prediabetes Categories of increased risk for diabetes (prediabetes) IFG: 5.6–6.9 mmol/L OR IGT: 2-h plasma glucose in the 75-g OGTT 7.8–11.0 mmol/L OR A1C 5.7–6.4% *For all three tests, risk is continuous, extending below the lower limit of a range and becoming disproportionately greater at higher ends of the range. Diabetes Care 2013;36(suppl 1):S13; Table 3. Pathogenesis of T1DM • Autoimmune destruction of the pancreatic islet cell • Hallmark = lymphocytic infiltration of islets • Progresses over years • Leads to insulin deficiency • Glucagon production is preserved but impaired action Incidence of T1DM in Australia Australian incidence (NDR) in children 0-14 years between 2000-2006 Diabetic Medicine 2009; 26(6): 596-601 Genetics of T1DM 1 • Susceptibility to T1DM is an inheritable trait BUT >85% cases occur in the absence of first-degree relative • Lifetime risk: first-degree relative (5%) vs general population (0.3%) Genetics of T1DM 2 • Twin concordance: monozygotic (3050%) vs dizygotic (6-10%) • Risk increases with early age at diagnosis: 3-5 fold increase risk if first degree relative diagnosed <5 years age Genetics of T1DM 3 Susceptibility loci: HLA-DR3 and HLA-DR4 • At least one locus: 95% T1DM vs 3% general population Protective loci: HLA-DR2, HLA-DR5, and HLA-DQB1*0602 • 1 in 15,000 people with HLA-DQB1*0602 develop T1DM Environmental factors in T1DM • Cow’s milk protein exposure (bovine serum albumin and β-lactoglobulin) • Vitamin D deficiency • Viruses: coxsackie A or B, enterovirus, rubella, cytomegalovirus, ECHO virus, EBV, mumps, retrovirus • Drugs & toxins: eg alloxan-like or streptozotocin- like agents that induce oxidant beta-cell damage • Stress The Environmental Determinants of Diabetes in the Young (TEDDY) study Islet-specific autoantibodies1 • Islet cell autoantibodies (ICA) • Glutamic acid decarboxylase autoantibodies (GADA) • Insulinoma-associated 2 autoantibodies (IA-2A) • Insulin autoantibodies (IAA) • Zinc transporter autoantibodies (ZnT8A). Multiple and specific combinations of autoantibodies more predictive Diabetes Care 2009;32:2269-74 Islet-specific autoantibodies2 • Not causative • Present months to years before onset of symptoms • Persist for varying duration after onset • 90-95% T1DM have at least one at diagnosis Cell Mol Life Sci 2007;64:865-72 Ann Intern Med 2004;140:882-6 J Clin Endocrinol Metab 2004;89:3896-902. Diabetes 1999;48:460-8 The Pathogenesis of T1DM Atkinson MA & Eisenbarth GS. Lancet 2001; 358; 221-229 Normal glucose homeostasis Meal Insulin secretion Fasting blood glucose is not an appropriate screen test for T1DM Clinical Presentation • Polyuria – 95% • Weight loss – 61% • Fatigue – 52% Polyuria is often missed on history The EURODIAB study Diabetologia 2001;44(Suppl 3):B75-80. Goals of T1DM Management • Utilize intensive therapy aimed at near-normal BG and A1C levels • Prevent diabetic ketoacidosis and severe hypoglycemia • Achieve the highest quality of life compatible with the daily demands of diabetes management • In children, achieve normal growth and physical development and psychological maturation • Establish realistic goals adapted to each individual’s circumstances DCCT and EDIC Findings • Intensive treatment reduced the risks of retinopathy, nephropathy, and neuropathy by 35% to 90% compared with conventional treatment • Absolute risks of retinopathy and nephropathy were proportional to the A1C • Intensive treatment was most effective when begun early, before complications were detectable • Risk reductions achieved at a median A1C 7.3% for intensive treatment (vs 9.1% for conventional) • Benefits of 6.5 years of intensive treatment extended well beyond the period of most intensive implementation (“metabolic memory”) Intensive treatment should be started as soon as is safely possible after the onset of T1DM and maintained thereafter DCCT/EDIC Research Group.

Incidence of Severe Hypoglycemia: T1DM Exchange Garg S, et al. Presented at 5th International Conference on Advanced Technologies & Treatment for Diabetes, Barcelona, 2012. Causes of Hypoglycemia in Toddlers and Preschoolers • Unpredictable food intake and physical activity • Imprecise administration of low doses of insulin • Frequent viral infections • Inability to convey the symptoms of low blood sugar J Pediatr. 2002;141:490-495.
