Automated insulin delivery system use and physical activity levels in adults with type 1 diabetes: A BETTER registry analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Aims

To explore the association between using automated insulin delivery (AID) systems and physical activity (PA) levels among people with type 1 diabetes.

Methods

Cross-sectional study including 1156 participants from the BETTER Type 1 Diabetes registry.
