Adherence and Persistence to Basal Insulin Among People with Type 2 Diabetes in Europe: A Systematic Literature Review and Meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Diabetes is associated with a number of complications, particularly if glycaemic targets are not achieved. Glycaemic control is highly linked to treatment persistence and adherence. To understand the burden of poor persistence and adherence, this systematic literature review identified existing evidence regarding basal insulin adherence/non-adherence and persistence/non-persistence among people with diabetes in Western Europe (defined as the UK, France, Spain, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Ireland, Austria, Portugal, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Italy, Germany, Iceland and Belgium).

Methods

Eligible studies were systematically identified from two databases, Medline and Embase (published between 2012 and June 2022). Conference abstracts from ISPOR and EASD w
