Correlation Between A1c (A1c) and Continuous Glucose Monitor Time in Range in a Cohort of Pediatric Patients with Type 1 Diabetes

Diabetes Technol TherPublished Retrospective cohort study

Authors' conclusion

TIR correlates with A1c in children with type 1 diabetes.

Study context

Population
Patients with T1D aged <22 years with ≥70% continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) usage, 2018 through 2020
Participants
2,393 patients
Outcome
Association between HbA1c and TIR (70-180 mg/dL)
