Data are means ± SD or median.
*P values for the comparison of baseline vs. month 12 for all subjects pooled. For variability, the unadjusted and adjusted P values for mean glucose are both given: unadjusted (adjusted).
†Baseline data are from blinded CGM use for approximately 4–7 days prior to randomization.
‡Self-reported blood glucose meter monitoring.
§Subjects required to have at least 24 h of glucose data at all three time points to be included in analysis. One subject with zero use in month 12 and one subject whose CGM use in month 12 was imputed with the self-reported data at the month 12 visit as a result of a missing download data were excluded.
‖Total area under the curve <70 mg/dl reflects both percentage and severity of glucose values in the hypoglycemic range.
¶Blood glucose index (ref. 8).
#Total area under the curve above 180 mg/dl.
**SD divided by mean glucose.
