Glycemic control status, diabetes management patterns, and clinical characteristics of adults with type 1 diabetes in Japan: Study of Adults' Glycemia in T1DM subanalysis.

ABSTRACT:

Aims/introduction

Type 1 diabetes is rare in the general Japanese population, but becoming more common in adults with increased longevity owing to advancements in treatment. We aimed to examine the current state of glycemic control and diabetes management using real-world data on Japanese adults with type 1 diabetes in different age groups.

Materials and methods

This was a subanalysis of Japanese participants from a multinational, cross-sectional, observational study of adults with type 1 diabetes aged ≥ 26 years conducted in 2018 (Study of Adults' Glycemia in T1DM). Glycemic control achievement rate and goal setting, incidence of hypoglycemia, and diabetes management of individuals aged 26‒44 years, 45‒64 years, and ≥ 65 years were summarized.
