Ilaria Perversi"Lontano, lontanissimo"Edizioni Lapiswww.edizionilapis.itMartina è l'unica bambina della sua classe a compiere gli anni durante le vacanze estive. Ogni anno, alla fatidica domanda “Dove vuoi festeggiare il tuo compleanno?”, la risposta è sempre la stessa: “Lontano, lontanissimo!”. Così, tra montagne innevate, giungle misteriose e metropoli sfavillanti, Martina spegne le candeline in posti incredibili.Ma quest'anno qualcosa va storto. Un imprevisto la costringe a rimanere a casa, e Martina si ritrova ad affrontare una paura che non aveva mai voluto ammettere: e se, restando qui, nessuno si ricordasse del suo compleanno?Quello che scoprirà, però, è che l'affetto delle persone non ha bisogno di grandi viaggi per farsi sentire. Il vicino di casa finalmente può farle gli auguri il giorno giusto, la zia la chiama senza problemi di segnale, e la sua migliore amica è lì con lei. Alla sera, con una fetta della sua pizza preferita e un atlante tra le mani, Martina spegne le candeline senza esprimere un desiderio: non ce n'è bisogno.Un albo illustrato che parla di attese, insicurezze, della paura di essere dimenticati, del calore di chi ci vuole bene - ovunque ci troviamo - e dell'importanza di dare agli altri la possibilità di dimostrare il loro affetto. Età di lettura dai 5 anniIlaria PerversiNata e cresciuta a Milano, dopo un diploma in Digital Animation, decide di dedicarsi primariamente alla letteratura per l'infanzia in qualità di autrice e illustratrice con diverse case editrici italiane, ma Ilaria Perversi anche disegnando per giochi, magazine, video animati, app interattive.

La Corte costituzionale impartisce l'ennesima lezione di educazione civica al governo

La Corte costituzionale ha depositato la sentenza sull'Autonomia differenziata, dopo che a novembre era stata annunciata la dichiarazione di parziale incostituzionalità della riforma voluta dalla Lega e scritta dal ministro Roberto Calderoli. Nella sentenza firmata dal giudice Giovanni Pitruzzella, si specificano esattamente su quali questioni il parlamento dovrà intervenire con una modifica costituzionalmente orientata. Tra i rilievi vi sono le materie intrasferibili che erano state fissate all'articolo 117 della Costituzione e che sono state violate dalla legge illegittima voluta dal governo. Sono le materie in cui, dice la Consulta, “predominano le regolamentazioni dell'Unione europea” come la politica commerciale comune, la tutela dell'ambiente, la produzione, trasporto e distribuzione nazionale dell'energia e del sistema elettrico e le grandi reti di trasporto e di navigazione, le norme generali sull'istruzione che hanno una «valenza necessariamente generale ed unitaria», le funzioni relative alla materia delle “professioni”, in particolare quelle ordinistiche, e i sistemi di comunicazione (elettronica o di internet) che hanno finalità di tutela dei consumatori e dunque afferiscono alla materia “tutela della concorrenza”. Come nel caso dei migranti in Albania un tribunale deve ricordare alla maggioranza di governo che esiste una gerarchia delle leggi che deve essere rispettata e che nulla ha a che vedere con il “mandato del popolo” o altre sciocchezze elementari simili. Di solito il concetto di norme superiori e norme inferiori si studia in educazione civica nella scuola secondaria di primo grado, alle scuole medie. Ma evidentemente al governo urge un ripasso generale. #LaSveglia per La NotiziaDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/la-sveglia-di-giulio-cavalli--3269492/support.

ROMA (ITALPRESS) - “Senza Comuni coraggiosi e capaci non ci sarà transizione Ecodigital e nemmeno benessere dei cittadini. E auguro buon lavoro all'amico Gaetano Manfredi, primo sindaco di Napoli a ricoprire la presidenza dell'Anci, un uomo di cultura e un innovatore”. Lo dichiara Alfonso Pecoraro Scanio, presidente della fondazione UniVerde, promotore della rete civica Ecodigital e già ministro, che aggiunge: “Occorre che il Governo aumenti le risorse e gli strumenti a disposizione dei comuni con particolare attenzione a tutti i piccoli centri a rischio spopolamento che presidiano un territorio fragile e ancora abitato da milioni di persone. Trascurare i Comuni fa male all'Italia. Manfredi avrà l'autorevolezza necessaria per ottenere dal Governo più attenzione e l'elezione all'unanimità sarà d'aiuto”.sat/gsl

XX New study shows screening kids at risk for type 1 diabetes only once – at age ten – is very effective in detecting the condition by the age of 18. These researchers also say “Almost no one” who is islet autoantibody negative at age 10 years despite a high familial risk for type 1 diabetes will develop clinical diabetes by the age of 18. Full study published in the Lancet. https://www.medwirenews.com/diabetes/age-10-years-optimal-type-1-diabetes-screening-point/23957596 https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanchi/article/PIIS2352-4642(22)00350-9/fulltext?fbclid=IwAR2kRNyGg6lnq3ZWsFkXnCvkeNiisg9mE2bbN_OnGiLrUpcHKXAaff3OkE4 XX The nonprofit public health advocacy group the Physicians Committee issued a formal complaint that a recent CBS "60 Minutes" segment was a promotion for Novo Nordisk's obesity drug, Wegovy, that was dressed up as a news segment. The Washington, D.C.-based group has filed a complaint with federal bodies alleging that the CBS "60 Minutes" segment that aired on New Year's Day breached the FDA's “fair balance” rules for drug ads. The Committee said in a release that the feature failed to talk about alternatives to the drug or about other weight-loss methods; that only experts “paid by Novo” were used in the program; and that the piece used overly promotional language. This has caused Wegovy supply issues for Novo which, coupled with manufacturing problems, only deepened bumps in production last year for the drug and led to an official shortage of the drug in 2022. A spokesperson for Novo Nordisk told Fierce Pharma Marketing: “Novo Nordisk did not provide any payment or sponsorship to CBS 60 Minutes for their reporting on obesity as part of a news segment that aired on January 1, 2023, and we did not control any of the content or have any role in identifying or selecting the doctors and patients featured in the news segment.” https://www.fiercepharma.com/marketing/health-group-lambasts-novo-nordisk-60-minutes-paid-news-program-weight-loss-med-wegovy XX Some researchers have pulled out of a trial investigating the use of an old tuberculosis vaccine to treat children with Type 1 diabetes only months after they began enrolling participants. This is part of the Faustman study of the BCG vaccine. Some recent research suggests that the vaccine, first administered in 1921, also may protect against Covid-19 and respiratory diseases because of its broad effects on the immune system. The lead investigators of the pediatric trial are proceeding with the study, but N.Y.U. Langone's abrupt withdrawal could potentially jeopardize its viability if they are unable to collect data on the children at the N.Y.U. site. An earlier study by the scientists at Massachusetts General found that two doses of B.C.G. vaccine reduced blood sugar levels to near normal in a very small group of adults with Type 1 diabetes. Other studies of B.C.G., using different versions of the vaccine and following Type 1 diabetes subjects for varying periods of time, have yielded mixed results. The lead investigator of the trial, Dr. Denise Faustman, director of the immunobiology laboratory at Massachusetts General Hospital, said that N.Y.U.'s withdrawal was a serious deviation from trial protocol that may call into question the final results. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/01/20/health/diabetes-bcg-nyu.html XX A new smart insulin pen sensor can also be used to track dosing of GLP-1 medications. Brand names for GLP-1 medications include Trulicity and Ozempic. This device, called Mallya, attaches to the injector and connects it to a mobile app. It's already cleared in Europe and should be available in the US in the next few months. The device is compatible with most popular insulin pens, including Lilly's Kwikpen, Sanofi's Solostar, and the Novo Nordisk FlexPen. Biocorp also announced that it has partnered with Novo Nordisk, Sanofi, and Roche Diabetes Care to improve Mallya's current design moving forward. According to the Mallya website, the device's lifespan is two years before a replacement is needed, and in no way does it change the way that users operate their insulin pen. The device can be charged via USB and, with average use of three to four injections per day, requires charging once a month. Also, for those who have different pens for multiple types of insulin, the app can connect multiple Mallya devices, one for basal insulin and another for bolus, for instance. https://diatribe.org/fda-clears-smart-injector-pen-device-mallya XX Tempramed/ VIVI Cap XX New features popped up this week in the latest version of The Sims – after an update, players can opt for their characters to wear a CGM – Libre or Dexcom Freestyle Libre in the Sims 4 game. Search for CGM or Libre XX The Jonas Brothers officially have a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. On Monday, Nick, Joe and Kevin Jonas were honored during a ceremony on Hollywood Boulevard where their careers as musicians were celebrated. Their star was dedicated in the category of Recording and the trio was introduced by Monte and Avery Lipman of Republic Records, Ryan Tedder and writer and producer Jon Bellion. While the brothers still maintain their own separate projects -- Nick Jonas is set to produce and star in the upcoming film "Foreign Relations," Joe Jonas recently starred in the film "Devotion," and Kevin Jonas hosts the ABC series "Claim to Fame" -- they continue to make music together and are slated to release new songs this year. The group closed out Monday's ceremony by announcing big news about their upcoming new album, which will be released in May. They also said they'll be going on tour again.

I'm Stacey Simms and these are the top diabetes stories and headlines of the past seven days. we go live on social media first and then All sources linked up at diabetes dash connections dot com when this airs as a podcast. XX In the news is brought to you by T1D Exchange! T1D Exchange is a nonprofit organization dedicated to improving outcomes for the entire T1D population. https://t1dexchange.org/stacey/ XX The Federal Trade Commission will launch an inquiry into the prescription drug middleman industry.. requiring the six largest pharmacy benefit managers to provide information and records. They're looking at PBMs such as CVS Caremark; Express Scripts, Inc.; OptumRx, Inc.; Humana Inc and more. The largest PBMs are now vertically integrated with the largest health insurance companies and wholly owned mail order and specialty pharmacies. In these roles, pharmacy benefit managers often have enormous influence on which drugs are prescribed to patients, which pharmacies patients can use, and how much patients ultimately pay at the pharmacy counter. https://www.ftc.gov/news-events/news/press-releases/2022/06/ftc-launches-inquiry-prescription-drug-middlemen-industry?utm_campaign=https://www.ftc.gov/news-&utm_content=1654622484&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter XX Confirming what many of you have known for years.. an open-source automated insulin delivery system -- also known as a do-it-yourself system -- was both safe and effective for patients with type 1 diabetes. This is from the CREATE trial, designed to test DIY system, presented for the first time at the ADA Scientific Sessions. This system was made up of the OpenAPS algorithm from a version of AndroidAPS implemented in a smartphone, paired with the DANA-i insulin pump and Dexcom G6 continuous glucose monitor. The researchers previously published additional information in the Journal of Diabetes & Metabolic Disorders. https://www.medpagetoday.com/meetingcoverage/ada/99109 XX Stem cell study showing great results. Sernova says the first three patients of six total continue to be insulin independent following treatment. One of the patients has been insulin-free for more than two years, while the other two have been free of the need for medication injections for six months and three months, respectively. At this point, the other three patients in the study have not had the device long enough to determine measurable results. The first three all have A1Cs in a normal, nondiabetic range. Sernova's Cell Pouch is an implantable device that releases the primary donor islets. The device is implanted under the skin in a minimally-invasive procedure. We're talking to Sernova for next week's show; long way to go here but another good result for stem cells. https://www.biospace.com/article/sernova-cell-pouch-device-keeps-type-1-diabetes-patient-insulin-free-for-two-years/ XX Getting closer to once-a-week basal insulin. New study says Novo Nordisk insulin icodec achieved better results than Lantus in some aspects of the study and that overall it was – this is interesting wording – non-inferior. Another previous study showed it also matched well to Tresiba, but that Tresiba caused fewer lows than the once-weekly basal. This study was about type 2 diabetes but insuln icodec is in other trials for people with type 1. https://www.biospace.com/article/novo-nordisk-scores-phase-iii-insulin-win-strengthening-market-position/ XX New partnership between Diabeloop – which makes an automated insulin algorithm - and SOOIL which makes pumps. These are two French companies that have been working together since 2020 but this new announcement was delayed by COVID. They want to bring the product – Diabeloop's DBLG-1 I controller and SOOIL's Dana ACE Pump to the US, Europe and Korea. https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/diabeloop-sooil-automated-insulin-diabetes/ XX Civica continues to move ahead with the development of its affordable insulins. They've announced they'll partner with the German company Profil for the clinical trials. Civica plans to set a maximum recommended price to the consumer of no more than $30 per vial and no more than $55 for a box of five pen cartridges. Contingent on FDA approval, Civica anticipates that its insulins will be available for purchase beginning in 2024. https://www.healthcarepackaging.com/supplier-news/news/22262909/civicarx-civica-selects-profil-as-clinical-trial-partner-for-affordable-insulin-initiative XX New study out of Israel shows that obesity in teenagers may lead to type 1 diabetes a few years later. The study, of nearly 1.5 million Israeli teenagers, found that those who were obese were twice as likely to develop type 1 diabetes by young adulthood, versus those in the normal weight range. The senior researcher on the study says it's not clear why obesity would raise the risk of type 1. They think it may the a trigger in people with genetically susceptible. Obesity also has other effects — including vitamin D deficiency and alterations in the gut's bacterial makeup — that could impair immune function. https://www.usnews.com/news/health-news/articles/2022-06-06/obesity-in-teen-years-might-trigger-type-1-diabetes XX Right back to the news in a moment but first we've got a new sponsor. As I mentioned, The T1D Exchange Registry is an online research study, designed to harness the power of individuals with type 1 diabetes. It's a research study conducted online over time, designed to foster innovation and improve the lives of people with T1D. Personal information remains confidential and participation is fully voluntary. Once enrolled, participants will complete annual surveys and have the opportunity to sign up for other studies on specific topics related to T1D. By sharing opinions, experiences and data, patients can help advance meaningful T1D treatment, care and policy Sign up at T1DExchange.org slash Stacey (that's S-T-A-C-E-Y). XX XX XX On this week's long format episode, you'll hear my conversation with Dexcom's CEO Kevin Sayer.

XX The news is brought to you by The World's Worst Diabetes Mom: Real Life Stories of Parenting a Child With Type 1 Diabetes. Winner of best new non-fiction at the American Book Fest and named a Book Authority best parenting book. Available in paperback, eBook or audio book at amazon. XX Our top story this week.. Dexcom gets the CE Mark for it's new G7 system, which means it's approved in Europe. The approval is for people ages 2 and up, including pregnant women. I'm putting the full screen photo up here and I'll post this on the website and in the FB group for those listening.. interesting to finally get a good look at the much smaller applicator – as expected looks a lot like the Libre. Also interesting, all the PR for this has said, developed in partnership with Verily.. remember them? That was part of google, probably best known for saying they were going to develop a contact lens that would monitor glucose. I've reached out to Verily, love to know more about this partnership. Anyway, we've done a ton on G7, I'll link up some of our recent conversations with the folks at Dexcom. They submitted to the US FDA at the end of 2021, no firm timeline on US approval. https://www.medicaldevice-network.com/news/dexcom-ce-mark-g7-cgm-system/ XX Some good news about living longer with chronic conditions, including diabetes. This was a 20-year British study that ended in 2011, so one caveat here, it doesn't include COVID. Men gained 4-point-6 years of life expectancy; women gained 2-point-1. When it comes to disability-free life expectancy, men gained about a year less and women stayed the same. This included people with chronic conditions including those with diabetes. These researchers do point out that while they'd expect to see the same increase in the US – the lack of health and social safety net programs could make a negative difference here. But they point to CGM technology and better medication as making a big difference for those with diabetes. https://www.healthline.com/health-news/why-people-with-chronic-conditions-such-as-diabetes-are-living-longer-without-disability#Cognitive-impairment-is-the-exception XX Children who develop type 1 diabetes show epi-genetic changes in the cells of their immune system long before the antibodies of the disease are detected in their blood. An epigenetic change affects how our genes work. Outside factors such as environmental, viral infections, are usually the cause. These researchers say these are previously unknown changes that signal the increased risk of developing type 1 and could give an even earlier indication than the anti-body marker tests available now. https://www.news-medical.net/news/20220316/Epigenetic-changes-could-be-a-biomarker-for-early-detection-of-type-1-diabetes.aspx XX Could text-messaging with their doctors help people with type 2? A new team in Chicago is looking at text-based intervention in underserved communities. The intervention will deliver personalized information directly to patients through text messages, including reminders about self-monitoring and prescription refills, interactive office hours and general information about diabetes, motivational support and answers to frequently asked questions. These doctors say the idea is to create more opportunities for patients to meaningfully engage and reduce barriers by employing technology already in people's hands. https://today.uic.edu/an-sms-solution-for-type-2-diabetes XX Last week we told you about the effort by Civica RX to make affordable insulin. Civica, is a nonprofit generic pharmaceutical company. JDRF directed funds to this effort and CEO Aaron Kowalski wrote an op ed that I'll link up. In it, he talks about the success Civica has had lowering the costs of other medications. We'll have Kowalski on the show soon and I've reached out to Civica as well. This would lower the price to $35 a vial no matter your insurance. Congress still hung on a $35 co-pay cap for those with insurance. https://www.healthline.com/diabetesmine/op-ed-jdrf-leader-on-insulin-affordability-for-all-americans XX Over in the UK they keep moving forward – covering all 400-thousand Britons with type 1 for the Libre CGM. Former guest of the podcast, Dr. Partha Kar, says everyone with type 1 will be able to get a CGM if they want one by the end of March. It will no longer be restricted by who doctors think need it the most. By the way, Briton means someone from England, Scotland or Wales.

Spare a Rose reports that individual donations so far have totaled more than 115-thousand-dollars. I'll keep linking up places to donate https://www.jdrf.org/blog/2022/03/02/helping-the-diabetes-community-in-ukraine/ XX Reaction to Pixar's Turning Red. I loved this.

Winner of best new non-fiction at the American Book Fest and named a Book Authority best parenting book. Available in paperback, eBook or audio book at amazon. XX Non-profit drugmaker Civica expects to launch lower-cost versions of insulin in the United States. Civica said it would produce three copycat versions of insulin, and make them available at roughly the same price for all customers, once approved by U.S. health regulators. The company's products, which would be available as both vials and pre-filled pens, are biosimilars to Sanofi Lantus, Eli Lilly's Humalog and Novo Nordisk's Novolog. The maximum price would be no more than $30 per vial and no more than $55 for a box of five pen cartridges. Civica, which was launched by seven health groups to make essential medicines available at affordable prices, expects to file for regulatory approval in 2023 with products available in 2024. https://www.saltwire.com/atlantic-canada/news/civica-aims-to-launch-low-cost-insulin-in-us-by-2024-100701260/ XX Tandem has issued an urgent field safety notice. This in Europe ONLY and is for the t-slim X2 pumps with Basil IQ technology. According to the notice, a user could inadvertently program and confirm a basal rate with an incorrectly placed decimal point. That could mean giving too much or too little insulin. Tandem says you can continue to use the pump after confirming basal rates are correct. A software update is coming. Again, this is Europe only and this is NOT an issue for any pumps on Control IQ https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/tandem-diabetes-warns-on-some-tslim-x2-insulin-pumps/?fbclid=IwAR0dV04W49iQ1LavAIQMkpleif77XiVqKq7ZrhUiFTrpylem-ZHIByRN8nw XX Interesting new potential treatment for diabetic retinopathy. Retinopathy happens when the disease damages tiny blood vessels in the eye, reducing blood flow to nerve cells in the retina. Treatment can be injections or laser surgery. These scientists are looking at photo-bio-modulation – which involves irradiating the eye with far-red to near-infrared light. This increases oxygen-rich blood flow to the retinal cells. They use an LED contact lens to get the light exactly where its needed. No human tests yet.. so it's a far way off. https://newatlas.com/medical/led-contact-lens-diabetes-blindness/ XX I don't have much of an update about diabetes aid to Ukraine except that it's still very much needed. If you're so inclined, we'll link up where you can donate. One partnership I didn't mention last week is one between the Ministry of Health of Ukraine, a group called Direct Relief, and the International Diabetes Federation. They are working closely together to understand where supplies are short, secure donations within and deliver them quickly to where they're needed. Lots of links to vetted organizations in the show notes and here on our fb page. https://sparearose.org/ https://www.jdrf.org/blog/2022/03/02/helping-the-diabetes-community-in-ukraine/ XX The ordinary blood pressure medication verapamil continues to show benefits in treating type 1 diabetes. Patients taking verapamil required less insulin two years after their type 1 diagnosis and also showed evidence of other surprising benefits. These researchers caution that their study is small and needs to be confirmed by larger clinical studies. There are a few other going on right now.. but the preservation of some beta cell function is very promising. https://www.uab.edu/news/research/item/12670-an-oral-medication-shows-benefits-treating-type-1-diabetes-for-at-least-two-years-after-diagnosis XX Two pieces of good news about insurance coverage. Our friends in Ontario, Canada will finally get CGM coverage. Starting March 14th the Assistive Deices Program will cover funding for a CGM and related supplies for people with type 1 . https://www.baytoday.ca/local-news/people-with-type-1-diabetes-to-get-government-funding-for-real-time-continuous-glucose-monitors-5126997 XX And in the US military families will have pharmacy coverage for Abbott's Free Style Libre 2 under Tricare Health. This should make the Flash Glucose Monitor available with zero copay to Tricare members. It begins next month. https://www.pharmacytimes.com/view/military-members-families-and-retirees-get-simplified-access-to-abbott-s-freestyle-libre-2-system-through-tricare- XX Bringing some awareness of how common a misdiagnosis is when an adult has type 1 diabetes.. professional golfer JJ Spaun is speaking up. He was diagnosed with type 2 but after a couple of years of struggling he found the right doctor and the right diagnosis. He next plays in the Players Championship this weekend we'll see if we can spot the Libre on his arm. https://www.golfchannel.com/news/after-diabetes-misdiagnosis-jj-spaun-feeling-new-person XX Our long format episode this week is all about Pixar's Turning Red. There are two background characters in the movie with diabetes and we've got the behind the scenes story why. Next week: why the star trek community pushed a T1D kickstarter campaign over the top.

The pharmaceutical industry, like many others, has room for improvement when it comes to diversity. Most recent studies show that approximately 1/3 of the top 50 pharma companies have no women on their board and only 8% of board seats are held by ethnically diverse directors, compared with 14% of the Fortune 500 overall. But there are signs that the industry is heading in the right direction by focusing more on diversity. Civica is an example, with women making up about half of the company's leadership team, the board of directors and leading critical parts of their business. On this episode of Dimensions of Diversity, host Lloyd Freeman talks to Jennifer Spalding, General Counsel and Chief Compliance Officer at Civica. The two discuss the need for improvement in diversity within the Pharma space and what Spalding and Civica are doing at her company to make a leading difference.
