Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Glargine treatment can improve the clinical features in Cystic Fibrosis patients affected by glucose derangements

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

To evaluate the effect of glargine treatment on BMI, lung function, acute pulmonary infections and HbA1c in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients with different glucose derangements, eighty-seven patients were screened for glucose derangements with fasting hyperglycaemia or abnormalities at the oral glucose tolerance test. They were classified on the basis of a "gluco-score" ranging 0-5. Patients with gluco-score \> 1 were treated with glargine. We report on the results of the first 20 patients who completed 12 months of treatment. BMI z-score, forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1), number of acute lung infections in the previous year and HbA1c were the study outcomes.
