Outcomes Following Infusion of Insulin Into Ultrasound-Detected Hyperechogenic Tissue in Youth Using Automated Insulin Delivery: A Paired Post Hoc Analysis

J Diabetes Sci TechnolPublished Post hoc paired analysis of a prospective study

Authors' conclusion

In this paired analysis, binary ultrasound classification alone did not explain short-term glycemic variation.

Study context

Population
Youth using AID with both hyperechogenic and normoechogenic findings at the most recently used infusion site across 3 visits of a prior 4-week prospective studypaired
Participants
17 participants
Comparison
Insulin infusion into hyperechogenic vs normoechogenic tissue
Primary endpoint
Insulin dose and CGM metrics
Follow-up
Days 1 to 2 after infusion-set placement
Methodological detailspaired within-participant comparison
  • Paired within-participant comparison
