Data are mean ± SD unless otherwise noted.
*One participant in the CGM-only group and one in the CGM+BGM group never came in for a follow-up visit and therefore had no CGM data;
†P values obtained by including an interaction term in each ANCOVA model adjusted for baseline value and site as a random effect. Continuous variable used in the models for age, duration, HbA1c, and baseline time in range;
‡education missing for one participant in the CGM-only group and three participants in the CGM+BGM group.
