Skin problems from insulin injections in children with type 1 diabetes
Part of Genetic & congenital, Hormones & metabolism, Skin clinical trials.
This study looks at what causes skin problems at insulin injection sites in children with type 1 diabetes. By joining, you help doctors find ways to prevent these skin issues and make injections more comfortable for your child.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child must have a type 1 diabetes diagnosis (as confirmed by a doctor).
- Your child must have had this diagnosis for at least 6 months.
- You (or another family caregiver) must be able to read and understand the survey.
- You (or another family caregiver) must spend at least 6 hours a day caring for your child.
- Your child must not be in urgent need of treatment for a diabetes complication or other serious illness.

This study looks at how diabetes devices like insulin pumps or continuous glucose monitors affect the skin barrier. If you have type 1 diabetes and use one of these devices, you may be able to help researchers understand skin health better.
This study tests two devices, Buzzy and TickleFlex, to see if they can reduce pain and fear during insulin injections in children with type 1 diabetes. It may help make daily injections more comfortable.
This study looks at immune (defense system) and blood-sugar changes in people with type 1 diabetes, and in some other diabetes or autoimmune hormone conditions. It includes people who will have a specific abdominal surgery so doctors can safely study lymph node tissue.
This study looks at immune cells in children who were recently diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. It involves one extra blood draw to better understand how the immune system attacks the pancreas. If you join, no new treatments are given—just observation and analysis of your child's immune cells.
This study looks at stomach and bowel problems in children with type 1 diabetes compared to healthy children. It may help doctors understand and manage these symptoms better.
This study tests whether using ultrasound scans in diabetes clinics can help people avoid insulin-induced lipohypertrophy (lumps under the skin from injections). It is for people with diabetes who use insulin injections or a pump and have unstable glucose levels despite using a continuous glucose monitor.
