Publication Open Access Impact of an mHealth and tailored physical activity intervention on the management and outcomes of children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus: a comprehensive approach to incidence, usability, and hypoglycemia risk(2025) Hormazábal Aguayo, Ignacio; García Hermoso, Antonio; Ezzatvar, Yasmin; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun ZientziakEsta tesis doctoral se basa en un proyecto de investigación llevado a cabo por la unidad de "Actividad Física en la Infancia y Juventud" del Centro de Investigación Biomédica Navarrabiomed, en colaboración con el grupo E-FIT (Ejercicio Físico, Salud y Calidad de Vida). Incluye datos tanto de un estudio de cohorte longitudinal, denominado Estudio de Cohorte Diactive-1, como de un ensayo controlado aleatorizado (ECA) titulado Diactive-1: Manejo Integral de Niños y Adolescentes con Diabetes Mellitus Tipo 1 (DMT1) a través del Ejercicio Físico Personalizado y Control Glucémico Utilizando un Sistema eHealth. Este proyecto ha sido financiado por el Instituto de Salud Carlos III (PI_2020/140) y se ha llevado a cabo en la Unidad de Endocrinología Pediátrica del Hospital Universitario de Navarra (HUN) (España). La investigación tiene como objetivo comprender el efecto de un programa de ejercicio físico personalizado y multidimensional, que incluye control dietético y terapia con insulina, sobre el control glucémico y la adherencia al tratamiento en niños y adolescentes con DMT1, a través del uso de una aplicación móvil. Esta Tesis Doctoral consta de tres estudios publicados en revistas científicas internacionales. El primer estudio (Capítulo 1) tuvo como objetivo determinar la incidencia global de DMT1 en niños y adolescentes menores de 20 años desde el año 2000 hasta 2022, incluyendo un subanálisis de los períodos pre-pandemia y pandemia de COVID-19. El segundo estudio (Capítulo 2) se centró en analizar la relación entre los parámetros de actividad física, los niveles promedio de glucosa y los eventos de hipoglucemia nocturna durante 7 días, buscando estimar un umbral de dosis de insulina para prevenir eventos de hipoglucemia nocturna en niños y adolescentes con DMT1. El tercer estudio (Capítulo 3) presenta un protocolo de estudio para un RCT cuyo objetivo principal es comparar los efectos de una intervención de 24 semanas con la aplicación Diactive-1 frente al cuidado estándar en los requerimientos de dosis de insulina en niños y adolescentes con T1DM. Los objetivos secundarios incluyen evaluar el impacto de la intervención con la aplicación Diactive-1 en el control glucémico, el perfil cardiometabólico, la composición corporal, la función vascular, la condición física, los comportamientos de movimiento de 24 horas, los hábitos alimentarios y el bienestar psicológico en comparación con un grupo de control que recibe el cuidado estándar, durante el período de intervención de 24 semanas. El cuarto estudio (Capítulo 4) se centró en evaluar la usabilidad de la app Diactive-1, diseñada para apoyar el entrenamiento de fuerza muscular en niños y adolescentes con DMT1, en línea con las directrices de la Sociedad Internacional de Diabetes Pediátrica y Adolescente y la Asociación Americana de Diabetes.Publication Open Access Youth with type 1 diabetes mellitus are more inactive and sedentary than apparently healthy peers: a systematic review and meta-analysis(Elsevier, 2023) Huerta Uribe, Nidia; Hormazábal Aguayo, Ignacio; Izquierdo Redín, Mikel; García Hermoso, Antonio; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun Zientziak; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate PublikoaAims: To conduct a meta-analysis of differences in physical activity, sedentary behaviour, and physical fitness between children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes and their healthy peers. Methods: The databases EMBASE, PubMed and SportsDiscus were searched for studies. Pooled effects were calculated using random effects inverse-variance models with the Hartung–Knapp–Sidik–Jonkman adjustment. Results: Thirty-five studies were included, comprising a total of 4,751 youths (53% girls, 2,452 with type 1 diabetes). Youth with type 1 diabetes were less physically active (Cohen’s d = − 0.23, 95%CI − 0.42 to − 0.04), more sedentary (Cohen’s d = 0.33, 95%CI 0.06 to 0.61), and had lower cardiorespiratory fitness (Cohen’s d = − 0.52, 95%CI − 0.73 to − 0.31) than their healthy peers. This corresponds to –12.72 min/day of moderate-tovigorous physical activity, 63.3 min/day of sedentary time (accelerometry) and –4.07 ml/kg/min of maximum/peak oxygen consumption. In addition, young people with type 1 diabetes were less likely to meet the international physical activity recommendations than their healthy peers (odds ratio = 0.44, 95%CI 0.31 to 0.62). Conclusions: Keeping in mind the heterogeneity between studies in the design, population and assessment, our findings show that children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes seem to be less active, more sedentary, and have lower cardiorespiratory fitness levels than their healthy peers.Publication Open Access Development and validation of a scale measuring perceived barriers to physical activity in Spanish for children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes: the Physical Activity Barriers Scale for pediatric type 1 diabetes (PABS-1) questionnaire(Elsevier, 2025-06-01) García Hermoso, Antonio; Huerta Uribe, Nidia; Hormazábal Aguayo, Ignacio; Muñoz Pardeza, Jacinto; Chueca-Guindulain, María J.; Burillo Sánchez, Elisabeth; Ezzatvar, Yasmin; López Gil, José Francisco; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun Zientziak; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate PublikoaAims: To develop and validate the psychometric properties, reliability, and criterion validity of the Physical Activity Barriers Scale for pediatric type 1 diabetes (PABS-1) in Spanish-speaking children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes. Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted with a sample of 93 Spanish-speaking children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes. The PABS-1 questionnaire was developed by experts and refined with patient feedback. Its validity was assessed by comparing results with accelerometer data, linking scores to objective physical activity measures. Results: The PABS-1 showed good internal consistency, with a Cronbach’s alpha (α) coefficient of 0.89, indicating strong reliability. Confirmatory factor analysis supported a four-factor structure, with physical, diabetes-related, psychological, and environmental barriers showing good fit indices (comparative fit index [CFA] = 0.94, root mean square error of [RMSEA] = 0.06, standardized root mean square residual [SRMR] = 0.05). Although the associations were small, the total PABS-1 score was significantly negatively correlated with cardiorespiratory fitness (Spearman’s rho [ρ]= -0.15, p = 0.035) and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (ρ = − 0.12, p = 0.039). Among the four factors, motivational barriers exhibited the strongest associations with physical activity and fitness, showing significant negative correlations. Conclusions: The PABS-1 is a valid and reliable tool for assessing perceived barriers to physical activity in Spanish-speaking children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes.Publication Open Access Incidence of type 1 diabetes mellitus in children and adolescents under 20 years of age across 55 countries from 2000 to 2022: a systematic review with meta-analysis(Wiley, 2023) Hormazábal Aguayo, Ignacio; Ezzatvar, Yasmin; Huerta Uribe, Nidia; Ramírez Vélez, Robinson; Izquierdo Redín, Mikel; García Hermoso, Antonio; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun ZientziakAims: the aim of this study was to determine the global incidence of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) in children and adolescents under 20 years of age from 2000 to 2022. Materials and methods: two reviewers searched three electronic databases (PubMed, Web of Science, and CINAHL) for studies published between January 2000 and November 2022. Pooled estimates of T1DM incidence with a 95% confidence interval (CI) per 100,000 person-years were calculated by country/region, sex, age, and COVID-19 pandemic period (pre-COVID-19 and pandemic). Results: the study included 126 studies from 55 countries and 18 regions. The incidence rate (IR) of T1DM from 2000 to 2022 was 14.07 (95%CI, 12.15-16.29) per 100,000 person-years. Finland and high-income North America had the highest IR, with 56.81 (95%CI, 55.91-57.73) and 28.77 (95%CI, 26.59-31.13) per 100,000 person-years, respectively. The IR was 13.37 (95%CI, 10.60-16.88) per 100,000 person-years in boys and 13.87 (95%CI, 11.51-16.70) per 100,000 person-years in girls. There were statistically significant differences among different age ranges: 0-4 versus 5-9 and 10-14 years old (p < 0.001); 5-9 versus 15-19 (p < 0.001) and 10- 14 versus 15-19 years old (p = 0.003). Finally, during the pandemic period (2020-2022), the IR was 24.84 (95%CI, 17.16-35.96) per 100,000 person-years, which was higher but not significant compared with the prepandemic period (2017-2019) of 13.56 (95%CI, 7.49-24.56) per 100,000 person-years (p = 0.090). Conclusions: the IR of T1DM in children and adolescents under 20 years of age is substantial, especially during the pandemic period, although it varies across regions. More reliable data from additional countries are needed to determine the worldwide incidence of T1DM.Publication Unknown Physical fitness and activity levels as predictors of subjective well-being in youths with type 1 diabetes mellitus: a 2-year longitudinal analysis of the diactive-1 cohort study(Wiley, 2025-03-05) Muñoz Pardeza, Jacinto; López Gil, José Francisco; Huerta Uribe, Nidia; Hormazábal Aguayo, Ignacio; Yáñez-Sepúlveda, Rodrigo; Ezzatvar, Yasmin; Izquierdo Redín, Mikel; García Hermoso, Antonio; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun ZientziakSubjective well-being (SWB), including cognitive and affective components, may be influenced by the management of type 1diabetes mellitus (T1DM). Physical fitness and adherence to physical activity (PA) are associated with better glycaemic stabilityand diabetes management. However, the relationship with SWB is not yet understood. The aim of the study was to determinethe relationship between physical fitness, PA, and SWB over two years in youths with T1DM. This longitudinal study involved83 participants (aged 6–18 years; 44.6% girls) from the Diactive-1 Cohort. Physical fitness was assessed by spirometry (peak ox-ygen consumption) and dynamometry (handgrip strength). PA domains were measured using triaxial accelerometers, whereasthe number of days participating in muscle-strengthening activities was assessed using a question. The Cuestionario Único deBienestar Escolar was used to determine SWB. Glycaemic stability was determined when glycosylated hemoglobin < 7%, coef-ficient of variability ≤ 36%, and time-in-range target > 70% were met. The linear mixed models used considered three assess-ments and subject variability, showing significant associations between overall physical fitness (unstandardized beta coefficient[B] = 1.778, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.413–3.158; p = 0.012) and total PA (B = 0.034, 95% CI 0.005–0.063; p = 0.020) withSWB. Although time did not moderate the association with physical fitness (p = 0.116), this was true for PA only in the secondyear (p = 0.020). In contrast, glycaemic stability did not moderate the associations (p > 0.05). In conclusion, physical fitness andPA are associated with greater SWB in young people with T1DM, which may play a role in the psychological aspects of diseasemanagement.Publication Unknown Is physical fitness associated with leucocyte telomere length in youth with type 1 diabetes?(Springer, 2024-11-14) Muñoz Pardeza, Jacinto; López Gil, José Francisco; Huerta Uribe, Nidia; Hormazábal Aguayo, Ignacio; Ojeda-Rodríguez, Ana; Martí del Moral, Amelia; Izquierdo Redín, Mikel; García Hermoso, Antonio; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun ZientziakBackground: in type 1 diabetes, telomere length (TL) may predict complications and could be influenced by glycaemic control and physical activity, but its relationship with physical fitness in youths remains unexplored. The aim of the study was to assess the association between physical fitness and TL in youth with type 1 diabetes, both at baseline and one year later. Methods: eighty-three children and adolescents (aged 6-18 years; 44.6% girls) with type 1 diabetes from the Diactive-1 Cohort Study were involved in this study. Physical fitness was assessed using spirometry on a cycloergometer (i.e., peak oxygen consumption), dynamometry, and maximal isometric strength (one-repetition maximum [1RM]), and muscle power. Leucocyte TL was assessed using multiplex monochrome real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Results: positive cross-sectional associations were identified between 1RM (unstandardized beta coefficient [B] = 0.042, 95% bias corrected and accelerated [BCa] confidence interval [CI] 0.012-0.069), muscle power (B = 0.056, 95% BCa CI 0.02-0.250), and overall physical fitness (B = 0.043, 95% BCa CI 0.015¿0.071) with TL independent of maturation, glycated haemoglobin, and diabetes duration. However, no associations were observed one year later. Conclusion: higher levels of fitness, particularly muscle strength, may play a role in telomere dynamics in youth with type 1 diabetes, suggesting that strength training exercise could be beneficial. Impact: this is the first study to examine cross-sectional and longitudinal perspectives on the correlation among muscle strength, peak oxygen consumption [VO2peak] and telomere length in youths with type 1 diabetes. Higher physical fitness levels, as assessed by measures such as one-repetition maximum, muscle power, and overall physical fitness, are positively associated with telomere length in youths with type 1 diabetes. Understanding this link could improve management strategies, prioritizing muscle strength training for better long-term health in type 1 diabetes.Publication Open Access Handgrip strength, cardiometabolic risk and body composition in youth with type 1 diabetes: the Diactive-1 Cohort Study(BMJ Publishing, 2024-12-04) Huerta Uribe, Nidia; Hormazábal Aguayo, Ignacio; Muñoz Pardeza, Jacinto; Chueca-Guindulain, María J.; Berrade-Zubiri, Sara; Andrés Sesma, Carlos; Burillo Sánchez, Elisabeth; Ezzatvar, Yasmin; Yáñez-Sepúlveda, Rodrigo; Izquierdo Redín, Mikel; García Hermoso, Antonio; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun ZientziakObjective: this study aimed to explore the association between handgrip strength, cardiometabolic risk (CMR) and body composition in youth with type 1 diabetes. Methods: for this prospective cohort study, muscular fitness was assessed via handgrip test and relativised by weight, and body composition, evaluated through dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry in type 1 diabetes patients aged 6-18 years. CMR score included z-scores for total body fat, blood pressure, glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and triglyceride-glucose index. Results: eighty-three patients were analysed at baseline and 1-year follow-up (44.6% females, mean age 12.77 years). Individuals with high handgrip strength tended to have lower CMR and body fat compared with those with low handgrip strength. Over a year, individuals with high handgrip strength showed reduced HbA1c, CMR and subcutaneous fat. Consistently meeting high handgrip strength criteria resulted in reductions in HbA1c levels, CMR score and subcutaneous adipose tissue compared with those who never complied or lost compliance during follow-up. Additionally, subjects classified with high handgrip strength both at baseline and follow-up had a lower likelihood of being classified with high CMR (OR=0.241, 95% CI 0.121 to 0.947, p=0.044). Conclusions: high handgrip strength was associated with significant cardiometabolic and body composition benefits in youth with type 1 diabetes. This tool could be considered of potential clinical value for incorporating assessments like handgrip tests to monitor and address cardiometabolic health.Publication Open Access A before-school physical activity intervention to improve cognitive parameters in children: The Active-Start study(Wiley, 2019-08-19) García Hermoso, Antonio; Hormazábal Aguayo, Ignacio; Fernández Vergara, Omar; González-Calderón, Nicole; Russell-Guzmán, Javier; Vicencio-Rojas, Francisca; Chacana-Canas, Cesar; Ramírez Vélez, Robinson; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun ZientziakThe aim of the study was threefold: (a) to test a before-school physical activity intervention (Active-Start) on academic performance, selective attention, and concentration capacity; (b) to test the effect of the Active-Start intervention on anthropometry, body composition, and physical fitness parameters; and (c) whether the physical fitness components are moderators of the effect of the Active-Start program on academic performance, selective attention, and concentration capacity in Chilean children. The Active-Start intervention was a RCT which comprised 170 children (8-10 years old) from three public schools with low socioeconomic status from the city of Santiago (Chile). The exercise intervention was delivered daily, before starting the first school-class (8:00-8:30 am) for 8 weeks. Changes in academic performance, selective attention and concentration capacity, anthropometric, body composition, and physical fitness parameters were measured. The analyses used were mixed regression models for repeated measures over time. No statistically significant changes in attention and concentration capacity were found. However, significant changes were seen in language (0.63; 95% CI 0.49-0.77) and mathematics (0.49; 95% CI 0.32-0.66) performance (P < .001). Also, improvements were seen in fat mass, fat-free mass, muscular, and cardiorespiratory fitness (all P < .05). The Johnson-Neyman technique revealed a significant relationship between the effect of intervention and attention and concentration when change in cardiorespiratory fitness was above, but not below, 3.05 and 0.70 mL/kg/min, respectively. Implementing before-school physical activity programs such as the Active-Start to enhance the cardiorespiratory fitness may benefit attention capacity and academic success among schoolchildren.Publication Open Access Association of physical activity patterns with nocturnal hypoglycemia events in youth with type 1 diabetes(Oxford University Press, 2024-07-02) Hormazábal Aguayo, Ignacio; Huerta Uribe, Nidia; Muñoz Pardeza, Jacinto; Ezzatvar, Yasmin; Izquierdo Redín, Mikel; García Hermoso, Antonio; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun ZientziakAims This study sought to elucidate the interactions among physical activity (PA) patterns, mean glucose concentrations, and the incidence of nocturnal hypoglycemia events in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes, examining the moderating influence of daily dosage on these associations.Methods Eighty-two participants aged 6 to 18 years (43.9% girls) from the Diactive-1 Cohort Study, diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, were included. Data collection involved continuous glucose monitoring, accelerometry to assess real-world PA, as well as documentation of daily insulin doses and carbohydrate counting over the same 7 days.Results A total of 19 participants experienced at least 1 nocturnal hypoglycemia event over a span of 574 measurement days (106 days with and 451 days without nocturnal hypoglycemia). Higher levels of vigorous PA (VPA) were associated with lower same-day mean glucose levels (P = .014). Additionally, higher levels of moderate PA (P = .023), VPA (P = .011), and moderate-to-vigorous PA (P = .010) were associated with a greater number of nocturnal hypoglycemia events. Specifically, a significant association was identified between VPA and nocturnal hypoglycemia events when the daily insulin dose was at or above 1.04 units per kilogram of body weight per day (P = .016).Conclusion Daily VPA is associated with glucose reductions, potentially leading to more hypoglycemic episodes, particularly when there is an excess of daily insulin. This highlights the need for careful insulin management in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes engaging in VPA.Publication Open Access Nonpharmacological interventions on glycated haemoglobin in youth with type 1 diabetes: a Bayesian network meta-analysis(BMC, 2024-07-01) Muñoz Pardeza, Jacinto; López Gil, José Francisco; Huerta Uribe, Nidia; Hormazábal Aguayo, Ignacio; Izquierdo Redín, Mikel; García Hermoso, Antonio; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun ZientziakThe available evidence on the impact of specific non-pharmacological interventions on glycaemic control is currently limited. Consequently, there is a need to determine which interventions could provide the most significant benefits for the metabolic health of young individuals with type 1 diabetes mellitus. The aim of this study was to identify optimal nonpharmacological interventions on glycaemic control, measured by glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c), in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes. Systematic searches were conducted in PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and SPORTDiscus from inception to July 1, 2023. Randomised clinical trials (RCT) investigating nonpharmacological interventions (e.g., physical activity, nutrition, and behavioural therapies) were included. Primary outcome was change in HbA1c levels. Secondary outcome was change in daily insulin dose requirement. Seventy-four RCT with 6,815 participants (49.43% girls) involving 20 interventions were analysed using a network meta-analysis. Most interventions showed greater efficacy than standard care. However, multicomponent exercise, which includes aerobic and strength training (n = 214, standardised mean difference [SMD] =– 0.63, 95% credible interval [95% CrI] – 1.09 to – 0.16) and nutritional supplements (n = 146, SMD =– 0.49, – 0 .92 to – 0.07) demonstrated the greatest HbA1c reductions. These interventions also led to the larger decreases in daily insulin needs (n = 119, SMD =– 0.79, 95% CrI – 1.19 to – 0.34) and (n = 57, SMD =– 0.62, 95% CrI – 1.18 to – 0.12, respectively). The current study underscores non-pharmacological options such as multicomponent exercise and nutritional supplements, showcasing their potential to significantly improve HbA1c in youth with type 1 diabetes. Although additional research to confirm their efficacy is required, these approaches could be considered as potential adjuvant therapeutic options in the management of type 1 diabetes among children and adolescents.
