Evaluation of an Automated Insulin Delivery System in the Management of Postprandial Glucose Levels During a Pediatric School Camp: The Control-IQ Potato Challenge
Authors' conclusion
Despite differences in glycemic index and fat content, the Tandem t:slim X2 Control-IQ system effectively maintained satisfactory glucose control within the 3-h post-meal period for both fried and boiled potatoes.

P = 0.075
- Mean glucose change from pre-meal to 3-h post-meal
- P = 0.517
- Mean glucose change from pre-meal to 3-h post-meal: comparable between groups; −34.3 vs. −25.4 mg/dL, group order not stated
Glucose AUC
- No significant differences in area under the curve of glucose levels
