How temperature affects blood sugar and insulin absorption
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study looks at how outside temperature affects blood sugar levels and how the body absorbs insulin in adults with type 1 diabetes. It might help doctors understand how to adjust insulin doses in different weather to keep blood sugar stable.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have type 1 diabetes for more than 2 years.
- You speak and understand French.
- You are generally healthy, with no major health problems other than diabetes.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding (if you are a woman).
- You have not had a viral infection recently.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at how starting insulin soon after type 1 diabetes begins affects the body’s “blood fats” (lipoproteins). It may help researchers understand whether insulin changes these levels in early disease.
This study tests whether controlled exposure to cold—which causes your body to shiver and produce heat—can help your body use insulin better. You'll undergo repeated cold sessions over several weeks while researchers monitor your blood sugar control and metabolism.
This study looks at whether changes in blood sugar (“sugar swings”) affect brain functioning and eating behaviors in adults with type 1 diabetes. You would likely track your blood sugar and complete computer-based tasks or questionnaires to help researchers understand these links.
This study tests whether using an automated insulin delivery system (a smart pump that adjusts insulin based on sensor readings) can help improve blood sugar control and bone health in adults with Type 1 diabetes who have high and unstable blood sugars.
This study tests how exercising in hot conditions affects blood sugar levels in people with type 1 diabetes. It aims to help you understand how to manage your glucose when it's warm.
This study watches blood sugar changes over time in people who do not yet have diabetes but have test results that suggest risk for type 1 diabetes. The goal is to see whether “blood sugar variability” can predict when high or low blood sugar may happen, even before symptoms.
