Performance of the MiniMed 780 G system on mitigating menstrual cycle‐dependent glycaemic variability

Diabetes Obes MetabPublished Pilot study

Authors' conclusion

The fully automated adaptive algorithm of the MiniMed 780G system mitigated menstrual cycle-dependent glycaemic variability, successfully attaining the recommended glycaemic outcomes with a TIR greater than 70% throughout the entire menstrual cycle.

Study context

Population
Adolescent and young adult females with T1D and regular spontaneous menstruation
Participants
15 participants
Comparison
Luteal vs follicular phase, during open loop period (OLP) and advanced hybrid closed-loop (AHCL) period with MiniMed 780G
Outcome
Mean TIR during OLP
Follow-up
3 months
Methodological detailswithin-patient comparison of OLP and AHCL periods, Each period (OLP and AHCL) lasted 3 consecutive months
  • Within-patient comparison of OLP and AHCL periods
  • Each period (OLP and AHCL) lasted 3 consecutive months

Main finding

As reported in the abstract

TIR during AHCL period

TIR comparable during both phases

Auto basal and Auto correction insulin during AHCL period

Increase in Auto basal during luteal phase
13.55%
Increase in Auto correction during luteal phase
