Unlocking Potential: Personalized Lifestyle Therapy for Type 2 Diabetes Through a Predictive Algorithm-Driven Digital Therapeutic

J Diabetes Sci TechnolPublished Pre-post study

Authors' conclusion

These results indicate that the DTx has clinically relevant effects on glycemic control and weight reduction for patients with both well and poorly controlled diabetes, whether through single or repeated usage. It is a noteworthy improvement in T2D management, offering a non-pharmacological, fully digital solution that integrates biofeedback through CGM and an advanced AI algorithm.
