The Relationship Between Percent Time <70 mg/dL and Percent Time <54 mg/dL Measured by Continuous Glucose Monitoring

Diabetes Technol TherPublished Pooled analysis of randomised trials

Authors' conclusion

The T<54 : T<70 ratio increases with greater T<70, and the ratio generally is higher with blinded than unblinded CGM data, with the latter appearing to be similar to AID system data.

Study context

Population

Comparison
Blinded CGM vs unblinded CGM without automated insulin delivery (AID) vs unblinded CGM with AID
Outcome
Relationship between CGM-measured T<70 and T<54
Methodological detailsnine T1D randomized trials, Dexcom CGM data, penalized B-spline regression
  • Nine T1D randomized trials

Pooled result

As reported in the abstract

Predicted T<54 when T<70 was 4%

P < 0.001 comparing blinded versus unblinded and AID

T<54 : T<70 ratio, blinded data: from T<70 <1% to T<70 ≥7%
19% to 44%
T<54 : T<70 ratio, unblinded data: from T<70 <1% to T<70 ≥7%
15% to 42%
