The Effects of Lowering Nighttime and Breakfast Glucose Levels with Sensor-Augmented Pump Therapy on Hemoglobin A1c Levels in Type 1 Diabetes

Abstract

Breakfast period glucose improvement had the greatest effect on lowering HbA1c levels in patients with type 1 diabetes. Improving glucose control overnight resulted in subsequent improvement in the breakfast period. Although glucose control should be improved at all times, methods to improve overnight and post-breakfast glucose levels may be of primary importance in improving glucose control in patients with type 1 diabetes.
