Meeting time in range and time below range targets is not associated with psychological outcomes in type 1 or insulin-treated type 2 diabetes in the Hypo-METRICS study
Authors' conclusion
Meeting the composite target of time in range (TIR) >70% and time below range (TBR) <4% was not associated with differences in diabetes distress, fear of hypoglycaemia, depression, or anxiety in participants with type 1 (T1D) or insulin-treated type 2 diabetes (T2D) in the Hypo-METRICS study.
Study context
- Population
- Participants with T1D or insulin-treated T2D in the Hypo-METRICS study
- Exposure
- Meeting composite TIR >70% and time below range (TBR) <4% target vs not meeting it
- Outcome
- Diabetes distress, fear of hypoglycaemia, depression, anxiety
Main finding
As reported in the abstract
- Meeting TIR >70% and TBR <4% target not associated with differences in diabetes distress, fear of hypoglycaemia, depression or anxiety in T1D or insulin-treated T2D
Observational data: associations, not effects.
Further findings
