    Assessing the Pathophysiology of Hyperglycemia in the Diabetes RElated to Acute Pancreatitis and Its Mechanisms (DREAM) Study: From the Type 1 Diabetes in Acute Pancreatitis Consortium (T1DAPC)
    (Wolters Kluwer, 2022) Dungan, Kathleen M.; Hart, Phil A.; Andersen, Dana K.; Basina, Marina; Chinchilli, Vernon M.; Danielson, Kirstie K.; Evans-Molina, Carmella; Goodarzi, Mark O.; Greenbaum, Carla J.; Kalyani, Rita R.; Laughlin, Maren R.; Pichardo-Lowden, Ariana; Pratley, Richard E.; Serrano, Jose; Sims, Emily K.; Speake, Cate; Yadav, Dhiraj; Bellin, Melena D.; Toledo, Frederico G.

    Objectives: The metabolic abnormalities that lead to diabetes mellitus (DM) following an episode of acute pancreatitis (AP) have not been extensively studied. This manuscript describes the objectives, hypotheses, and methods of mechanistic studies of glucose metabolism that comprise secondary outcomes of the Diabetes RElated to Acute pancreatitis and its Mechanisms (DREAM) Study. Methods: Three months after an index episode of AP, participants without pre-existing DM will undergo baseline testing with an oral glucose tolerance test. Participants will be followed longitudinally in three sub-cohorts with distinct metabolic tests. In the first and largest subcohort, oral glucose tolerance tests will be repeated 12 months after AP and annually to assess changes in β-cell function, insulin secretion, and insulin sensitivity. In the second, mixed meal tolerance tests will be performed at 3 and 12 months, then annually, and following incident DM to assess incretin and pancreatic polypeptide responses. In the third, frequently-sampled intravenous glucose tolerance tests will be performed at 3 months and 12 months to assess the first-phase insulin response and more precisely measure β-cell function and insulin sensitivity. Conclusions: The DREAM study will comprehensively assess the metabolic and endocrine changes that precede and lead to the development of DM after AP.

    Baseline Quality Improvement Capacity of 33 Endocrinology Centers Participating in the T1D Exchange Quality Improvement Collaborative
    (American Diabetes Association, 2022) Marks, Brynn E.; Mungmode, Ann; Neyman, Anna; Levin, Laura; Rioles, Nicole; Eng, Donna; Lee, Joyce M.; Basina, Marina; Hawah-Jones, Nana; Mann, Elizabeth; O’Malley, Grenye; Wilkes, Meredith; Steenkamp, Devin; Aleppo, Grazia; Accacha, Siham; Ebekozien, Osagie; Pediatrics, School of Medicine
    This article describes the evolution of the Type 1 Diabetes Exchange Quality Improvement Collaborative (T1DX-QI) and provides insight into the development and growth of a successful type 1 diabetes quality improvement (QI) program. Since its inception 8 years ago, the collaborative has expanded to include centers across the United States with varying levels of QI experience, while simultaneously achieving many tangible improvements in type 1 diabetes care. These successes underscore the importance of learning health systems, data-sharing, benchmarking, and peer collaboration as drivers for continuous QI. Future efforts will include recruiting additional small- to medium-sized centers focused on adult care and underserved communities to further the goal of improving care and outcomes for all people living with type 1 diabetes.

    Recruitment and Retention Strategies for the Diabetes RElated to Acute Pancreatitis and Its Mechanisms Study: From the Type 1 Diabetes in Acute Pancreatitis Consortium
    (Wolters Kluwer, 2022) Yazici, Cemal; Dyer, Anne-Marie; Conwell, Darwin L.; Afghani, Elham; Andersen, Dana K.; Basina, Marina; Bellin, Melena D.; Boone, Leslie R.; Casu, Anna; Easler, Jeffrey J.; Greenbaum, Carla J.; Hart, Phil A.; Jeon, Christie Y.; Lee, Peter J.; Meier, Shelby; Papachristou, Georgios I.; Raja-Khan, Nazia T.; Saeed, Zeb I.; Serrano, Jose; Yadav, Dhiraj; Fogel, Evan L.; Type 1 Diabetes in Acute Pancreatitis Consortium (T1DAP); Medicine, School of Medicine
    Recruitment and retention of patients with acute pancreatitis (AP) in clinical studies can be challenging. While some obstacles are similar to other clinical conditions, some are unique to AP. Identifying potential barriers early and developing targeted solutions can help optimize recruitment and retention in AP studies. Such preemptive and detailed planning can help prospective, longitudinal studies focusing on exocrine and endocrine complications of AP in accurately measuring outcomes. This manuscript highlights the challenges in recruitment and retention strategies in AP studies and reviews available resources to create opportunities to address them. We describe the multifaceted approach used by the Recruitment and Retention Committee of the Type 1 Diabetes in Acute Pancreatitis Consortium (T1DAPC), which builds upon earlier experiences to develop a recruitment and retention plan for the DREAM (Diabetes RElated to Acute pancreatitis and its Mechanisms) study.
