Technology use and clinical outcomes in a racial-ethnic minority cohort of children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes
Objectives Technology use has been shown to improve diabetes control, but minority youths tend to have low rates of technology use and exhibit suboptimal glycemic control. We examined the impact of continuous glucose monitors (CGM) and continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) on glycemic control in a racial-ethnic minority cohort of children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes (T1D). Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted among 140 pediatric T1D patients seen at a multidisciplinary clinic. From January to November 2022, data on demographics and glycated hemoglobin ($ HbA_{1c} $) levels were collected. Patients were categorized as technology (CGM, CSII, or both) or non-technology users (finger stick meter (FS) and multiple daily injections (MDI)). Results The majority identified as Hispanic (79 %) and had public health insurance (71 %). Sixty-nine percent used technology. Compared with non-technology users, technology users had significantly lower mean $ HbA_{1c} $ levels (9.60 vs. 8.40 %, respectively) (p=0.0024), though no group (CGM + CSII, CGM + MDI, FS + CSII, and FS + MDI) achieved a mean $ HbA_{1c} $ level of <7.0 %. Regarding minority status, no significant differences in mean $ HbA_{1c} $ levels existed between Hispanics and Blacks in the CGM + MDI and FS + CSII groups (p=0.2232 and p=0.9224, respectively). However, there was a significant difference in mean $ HbA_{1c} $ levels between Hispanic and Black non-technology users (9.19 vs. 11.26 %, respectively) (p=0.0385). Conclusions Technology users demonstrated better glycemic control than non-technology users. Further research is needed to investigate factors affecting glycemic control in minority youths with T1D..
