Brain development in children with type 1 diabetes using an automated insulin system
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at how an automated insulin delivery system affects brain development in young children with type 1 diabetes. It may help understand if better glucose control early on benefits thinking and learning.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child must be between 5 and 8 years old.
- Your child must have been diagnosed with type 1 diabetes less than 6 months ago.
- Your child must already be using an insulin pump and a Dexcom glucose sensor.
- You (the parent or guardian) must be able to speak, understand, and read French.
- Your child must not have any major neurological or psychiatric conditions, and must have been born full-term (after 37 weeks of pregnancy).

This trial tests whether starting automated insulin therapy soon after diagnosis helps children and teens with type 1 diabetes control their blood sugar better. It uses a system that automatically adjusts insulin delivery based on continuous glucose monitoring.
This study tests a new automated insulin delivery (AID) system that connects your insulin pump to your glucose monitor to help keep your blood sugar in range. It is for both children and adults with type 1 diabetes who have not used an AID system before.
This study tests whether a “ketosis” state changes brain function in adults with type 1 diabetes. You may be asked to follow specific diet/food delivery plans and use devices that track glucose, which could help researchers understand how metabolism affects the brain.
This study looks at brain health in teens with normal weight, overweight, or obesity who are at risk for type 2 diabetes. It may help researchers understand how weight and diabetes risk affect the brain, using MRI scans and learning/memory tests.
This study observes how well the Control-IQ insulin pump system works for teenagers with type 1 diabetes who exercise at least twice a week. It aims to see if the technology is safe and effective during regular physical activity.
This study looks at how insulin resistance in the brain affects brain health. If you have type 1 or type 2 diabetes and are between 50 and 80 years old, you may be able to join to help researchers understand brain changes.
