Data are medians (interquartile range). CGM glucose data were obtained after completion of the 13- and 26-week visits with the CGM group using an unblinded device and the control group using a blinded device.
↵*P values were from three methods described in research design and methods: ANCOVA model based on van der Waerden scores, ANCOVA model with truncation of outliers, and ANCOVA model with square root transformation.
↵†One subject in the CGM group was missing sensor data.
↵‡Two subjects in the control group dropped out before the 26-week visit. MAGE, mean amplitude of glycemic excursion.
