Health‐related quality of life of people with type 1 diabetes: An IMI2 SOPHIA post hoc analysis of FUTURE and ADJUNCT ‐ ONE

Diabetes Obes MetabPublished Post hoc analysis of pooled baseline data from the FUTURE and ADJUNCT-ONE studies

Authors' conclusion

In our population of people living with T1D, higher BMI may have adversely impacted physical domains of quality of life, but larger differences between the high- and low-quality-of-life cluster indicate that more factors play a role.

Study context

Population

Participants
2,256 individuals
Comparison
Cluster 1 vs Cluster 2; BMI categories
Primary endpoint
Health-related quality of life (36-item Short-Form questionnaire), stratified by BMI and clustering
Follow-up
Baseline

Primary result

As reported in the abstract

SF-36 health-related quality of life
  • All QoL domains slightly lower than 50 (general population mean), except vitality
  • BMI ≥30 kg/m²: lower scores for bodily pain, physical functioning, general health and vitality
  • Cluster differences exceeded differences between BMI categories
  • Cluster 1 vs Cluster 2: P < 0.001
  • Cluster 1 vs Cluster 2: P < 0.001
