Effect of daily step count and elevated meal event count on glycemic outcomes.

Glycemic Variable	Time-in-range (54–140 mg/dL) Percentage of total time (%)	Average glucose mg/dL
Variable of interest	Estimate (standard error, t-test p-value)	Estimate (standard error, t-test p-value)
Elevated meal event count 0–1	−1.1 (1.3, 0.41)	1.7 (1.2, 0.16)
Elevated meal event count 0–2	−4.0 (1.3, 0.003)	5.8 (1.3, <0.0001)
Elevated meal event count 0 to ≥3	−8.1 (1.5, <0.0001)	7.7 (1.4, <0.0001)
Daily step count (1 unit = 1000 steps)	0.07 (0.1, 0.63)	−0.3 (0.1, 0.02)

Time-in-range (54–140 mg/dL) refers to the percentage of total time glucose values between 54 and 140 mg/dL. The effects of elevated meal event count were computed after adjusting for confounders, namely baseline glucose, duration and daily step count. Similarly, the effects of daily step count were computed after adjusting for confounders’ baseline, glucose, duration, and elevated meal event count. The sample size n = 369.
