Abbreviations: n: number of patients, age: mean or median age of the participants at each study, F: female; M, male; DKA: diabetic ketoacidosis; NR: not reported; PR: partial clinical remission at any time; DR: duration of remission; IFCR: insulin-free clinical remission. All studies used IDAA1c [HbA1c (%) + [4 × insulin dose (units per kilogram per 24 h)] to define the occurrence of partial clinical remission. An IDAA1c value ≤9 was considered indicative of partial clinical remission.
