About this trial

The goal of this observational study is to explore inter- and intra-individual determinants of postprandial glucose response in patients with type 1 diabetes using continous glucose monitoring (CGM).

Blood samples and anthropometrics will be collected during hospital visit. Participants will be asked to:

* record a seven-day food diary * complete EPIC food frequency questionnaire * complete questionnaires on sleep hygiene * collect a stool sample

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Postprandial glucose response

Postprandial glucose response wil be calculated by the trapezoidal method as the area under the curve above the baseline value (iAUC). The association between iAUC and gut microbiota composition derived from the analysis of faeces samples will be assessed. The association between iAUC and energy intake and dietary composition derived from the analysis of 7-days food record and EPIC will be assessed.
