Overview
Islet transplantation is associated with drastically improvement glucose control in people with type 1 diabetes. This treatment resulted in the disappearance of severe hypoglycemic events. However, its long-term effectiveness is limited by progressive loss of graft function. Currently, there is no standardized method to detect early dysfunction of the transplanted islets.
This study aims to determine whether a parameter derived from continuous glucose monitoring (CGM), Time in Tight Range (70-140 mg/dL), is associated with pancreatic islet grafts function.
The study hypothesis is that a decrease in Time in Tight Range reflects early loss of islet graft function.
