Summary: | Aims
Intensive glycaemic control is associated with substantial health benefits in people with type 1 diabetes. We sought to examine clinical and demographic factors associated with meeting glycaemic targets in type 1 diabetes.
Methods
We conducted a cross‐sectional analysis of 4594 individuals with type 1 diabetes. The primary outcome of the study was assessing factors associated with meeting HbA1c targets. Secondary endpoints included factors associated with continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) use and persistent C‐peptide secretion.
Results
Socioeconomic deprivation was strongly associated with a lower likelihood of achieving an HbA1c |
