DRC Director's Update - March 2023

The treatments available for persons with cystic fibrosis and for persons with diabetes have both been advancing rapidly over the past half-decade. It is no surprise therefore that care for persons with both conditions, termed cystic fibrosis-related diabetes (CFRD), is advancing as well. An updated set of treatment guidelines for CFRD have been issued by the International Society for Pediatric and Adolescent Diabetes. The guidelines have been indexed in Pubmed and can be found here (https://doi.org/10.1111/pedi.13453). The lead author of the guidelines is Dr. Katie Larson Ode, who is one of the FOEDRC faculty.

She is from the Division of Endocrinology and Diabetes of the Stead Family Department of Pediatrics. Her co-authors include CFRD experts from Minnesota, Colorado, Indiana, Philadelphia, Australia, Canada, Italy, and Germany. We are fortunate to have Dr. Larson Ode’s expertise and leadership in this field. Dr. Larson Ode international reputation stems from clinical studies she directed relating to diabetes in persons with cystic fibrosis. 

She was chosen by the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation to mentor a cadre of physicians across the country in the endocrine care of persons with cystic fibrosis and related clinical research. She has published multiple manuscripts in this area as well and is regularly invited to talk across the country and even internationally on this subject matter.
