Abstract
Recent advancements in the management of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) have significantly improved outcomes and quality of life for patients, particularly children. Technological innovations, such as continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems and insulin pump therapy, including hybrid closed-loop systems, have enhanced glycemic control by providing real-time data and automated insulin delivery. Ultrarapid-acting insulins and adjunctive pharmacotherapies, like sodium-glucose transport protein 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors and glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists, offer improved postprandial glucose management and reduced insulin requirements. Immunotherapy and beta-cell replacement therapies, including stem cell research and encapsulation devices, aim to preserve or restore endogenous insulin production. Digital health platforms and telemedicine have expanded access to education and support, fostering better self-management. Future directions in precision medicine, artificial intelligence, and microbiome research hold promise for personalized and potentially curative treatments. Collectively, these advances are transforming T1DM management, reducing disease burden, and enhancing the prospects for children with T1DM.
