Impact of Dietary Intervention Within an Interprofessional Cooperative Protocol for Prandial Insulin Dose Adjustment in People Living With Type 1 Diabetes (INSUDIETCOOP)

September 22, 2026 updated by: Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris

This retrospective multicenter cohort study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of an interprofessional cooperative protocol allowing dietitians to adjust prandial insulin-to-carbohydrate ratios in adults living with type 1 diabetes receiving functional insulin therapy. Glycemic outcomes will be assessed using continuous glucose monitoring data collected during routine clinical care. The primary endpoint is the change in Time in Range (TIR) between baseline and 6 months.

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

Type 1 diabetes requires continuous adjustment of insulin doses according to carbohydrate intake. In France, an interprofessional cooperation protocol implemented in 2023 authorizes trained dietitians to adjust insulin-to-carbohydrate ratios under physician supervision.

This retrospective multicenter cohort study will evaluate whether this organization improves glycemic control in routine clinical practice. Data will be collected from medical records and glucose monitoring platforms without modifying patient management.

The primary outcome is the difference in Time in Range (0.70-1.80 g/L) between baseline (M0) and Month 6 (M6). Secondary outcomes include differences in hypoglycemia, hyperglycemia, glucose variability and Glucose Management Indicator (GMI) assessed between baseline and follow-up visits at Month 3 and Month 6.

Study Population

Adults aged 18-69 years with type 1 diabetes or insulin-deficient diabetes receiving routine care under an interprofessional cooperation protocol for prandial insulin dose adjustment. Eligible participants must have had diabetes for more than 6 months, be treated with multiple daily insulin injections or an insulin pump, and have completed structured education in functional insulin therapy. Patients with unstable proliferative retinopathy, pregnancy, other types of diabetes, temporary treatments affecting insulin requirements, legal protection measures, or who object to the use of their data are excluded

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Male or female, aged 18 to 69 years.
  • Receiving routine clinical care under an interprofessional cooperation protocol for prandial insulin dose adjustment (protocol implemented since January 1, 2023).
  • Living with type 1 diabetes mellitus or insulin-deficient diabetes, confirmed by the presence of anti-GAD, anti-IA2, anti-ZnT8, or insulin autoantibodies, and requiring optimization of insulin therapy.
  • Diabetes duration greater than 6 months.
  • Treated with multiple daily insulin injections or an insulin pump (open-loop or hybrid closed-loop system).
  • Completion of a structured therapeutic education program in functional insulin therapy (individual consultations and/or educational workshops).
  • Able to understand study information and procedures.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Unstable severe proliferative diabetic retinopathy.
  • Any type of diabetes other than type 1 diabetes or insulin-deficient diabetes.
  • Pregnant women with type 1 diabetes.
  • Current treatment with temporary therapies that may affect insulin requirements (e.g., chemotherapy or systemic corticosteroid therapy).
  • Individuals under legal guardianship, curatorship, or any other legal protection measure.
  • Objection to the use of personal data for research purposes
