ANO “Children’s Camp FOX CAMP (Lager’ Lisonok)” has been operating in Russia since 2019. Changes of observations in the Moscow region, Sochi, Kaliningrad region, Sochi, Gelendzhik, Chelyabinsk region, Altai. In the period from 2019 to 2022, 796 children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM1) visited the shifts and active tours of the ANO “Children’s Camp FOKS CAMP (Lager’ Lisonok)”. The priority of children’s recreation is a focus on increased activity: marathons at various distances, football matches, basketball, alpine skiing and long hikes in the mountains, rafting. It is known that activity in patients with type 1 diabetes increases sharply by the level of blood increase, by a decrease in this indicator. In order, to prevent the development of hypoglycemia during heavy exercise, it is very important to quickly determine blood glucose using a glucometer and take the necessary measures to stop it. Thus, the presence of sufficient shifts is necessary to quickly and accurately carry out self-monitoring, sometimes in various and difficult conditions (on mountain trails, on a suspension bridge, when rafting on a mountain river, on the beach). This article presents the development of events on elevated blood levels in children and adolescents with DM1 in the conditions of the marathon, running at various distances in the conditions of the summer shift in the Moscow region of the children’s health camp ANO “Children’s Camp FOX CAMP (Lager’ Lisonok)”.

Aim: Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is one of the most common chronic conditions in children and adolescents. Approximately 1.5 million young people are currently living with T1D throughout the world. Despite recent improvement in overall indices of metabolic control in children and adolescents with T1D, control remains suboptimal and additional approaches are needed. The aim of the study was to conduct a systematic review and meta‐analysis of educational and psychoeducational self‐management interventions, to help optimize future interventions including physical activity support.Methods: A systematic review and meta‐analysis were conducted according to our registered protocol (PROSPERO CRD42022295932) and are reported in line with the PRISMA 2020 guidance. We searched five databases (MEDLINE, EMBASE, PsycINFO [via Ovid], CINAHL [via EBSCO], Cochrane Library) from 1994 up to May 2024. We included randomized controlled trials assessing the effectiveness of self‐management interventions. Outcomes of interest included HbA1c and quality of life (QoL) as well as self‐care behaviors, diabetes knowledge, and self‐efficacy. Meta‐analyses were conducted using a random effects model.Results: In total, 46 papers were included, reporting on 30 interventions. Meta‐analyses showed small short‐term improvements in HbA1c (MD = −2.58 mmol/L, 95% CI −4.44 to −0.71, p = 0.007) and QoL (mean difference [MD] = 1.37, 95% CI 0.19–2.54, p = 0.02). Prespecified subgroup analyses suggested no significant difference in effectiveness of psychoeducational and education‐only interventions. Quality of included studies was low with 27 having a high risk of bias.Conclusion: There is a lack of robust evidence that current self‐management interventions result in clinically meaningful improvements in HbA1c and QoL. Future research should focus on redefining approaches to supporting and encouraging self‐management.

Background/Objectives: Diabetes camps for children and adolescents with Type 1 Diabetes mellitus (T1DM) offer the opportunity to have a camping experience in a safe and supportive environment where they can receive diabetes skills education, such as glucose self-monitoring, insulin injections, management of hypoglycemia/hyperglycemia, and nutritional recommendations, including meal planning and carbohydrate counting. The ultimate goal of diabetes camps is to educate children to manage their condition independently, without parental involvement. Additionally, attending a diabetes camp is an excellent opportunity to meet peers and share their experiences and concerns about their condition, enhancing their confidence and reducing diabetes-related emotional distress. The aim of this review was to assess whether the nutritional planning and education offered at diabetes camps has a favorable effect on the glycemic control of attending children and adolescents. Methods: A literature search in PubMed and Scopus databases was performed. Eligible for inclusion were studies evaluating the effect of nutritional education offered in diabetes camps on glycemic control of children and adolescents with T1DM. Results: The majority of identified eligible studies supported the beneficial impact of the nutritional education offered in diabetes camps on glycemic control during and after the camp sessions. The favorable effect, though, seemed to be temporarily sustained (<6 months). Conclusions: Continuous nutritional education is required to prolong the duration of these beneficial outcomes. Further interventional studies are required to evaluate the direct effect of nutritional education provided at diabetes camps on glycemic control of children and adolescents with T1DM and the actual duration of favorable outcomes.
