Mean (SD), n (%), or median (IQR).

a

Adjusted for baseline value of dependent variable, age, prior CGM use, prior pump use, and clinical center (random effects). P values and confidence intervals adjusted for multiplicity using the false discovery rate.

b

At least 15 consecutive minutes >300 mg/dL (>16.6 mmol/L).

c

At least 15 consecutive minutes <54 mg/dL (<3.0 mmol/L).

d

For one participant in control group, the 26-week visit was outside the prespecified window, thus their HbA1c value was excluded from analyses.

TIR, time in range.
