Dose‐Normalised Time in Range ( dn‐Time in Range (TIR) ) Improves Following Hybrid Closed‐Loop ( HCL ) Therapy in Type 1 Diabetes: A Real‐World Cohort Study From Australia and the United Kingdom

Diabetes Obes MetabPublished Retrospective cohort study

Authors' conclusion

HCL/AID therapy improved TIR relative to TDD in two real-world cohorts.

Study context

Population
People with T1D commencing HCL/AID therapy in Australia and the United Kingdom (UK)
Participants
86 vs 288
Exposure
Before vs after commencing HCL/AID therapy
  • Australian = 86
  • UKn = 288
Outcome
Dose-normalised time in range (dn-TIR) (TIR 3.9-10.0 mmol/L divided by TDD) and its log relative change Δdn-TIR = log[(TIR/TDD)post/(TIR/TDD)pre]
Methodological detailstwo-cohort, real-world
  • Two-cohort
  • Real-world

Further findings

TIR, Australia (pre to post)

TIR increased from 53.2% ± 20.7% to 70.4% ± 14.6% (n = 86)
P < 0.001

Mean TDD, Australia (pre to post)

Mean TDD changed from 53.3 to 52.0 units/day (n = 86)
P = 0.724

TIR, UK (pre to post)

TIR increased from a median 54% [34, 68] to 66% [54, 74] (n = 257)
P < 0.001

Mean TDD, UK (pre to post)

Mean TDD changed from 44.1 to 46.3 units/day (n = 242)
P = 0.152
