Table 2.
A comparison of the performance in terms of glycaemic metrics and risk indices between different configurations of the BiAP: meal announcement (BiAP-MA), meal detection (BiAP-MD), and without either detection or announcement (BiAP-NMA). p-values calculated with Wilcoxon signed-rank test are underlined.
