Trial summary

Only 24.9% of the Belgian adults (25-50 years) with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) achieve a good glucose control. This can be explained by the challenging day-to-day diabetes management which places a substantial burden on this population. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: INTERPLAY WITHIN THE DAY: Optimizing Intra-day Glucose Control by Intervening on the Day-to-day 24-hour Movement Behavior Patterns in Adults With Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus.

Only 24.9% of the Belgian adults (25-50 years) with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) achieve a good glucose control. This can be explained by the challenging day-to-day diabetes management which places a substantial burden on this population. However, a tight glycemic control is fundamental in order to prevent the development of acute and chronic complications. Despite the added value of continue glucose monitors to glucose control, optimizing daily glucose levels is still problematic in adults with T1DM. In addition to self-monitoring of blood glucose, a healthy lifestyle with sufficient physical activity (PA), limited sedentary behavior (SB) and sufficient sleep time and quality is crucial for a good glucose control. A recent shift in health promotion stresses the importance of considering all these behaviors (i.e. PA, SB and sleep) in one 24-hour day instead of focusing on one behavior in isolation. The aim of this study is to investigate the association between the day-by-day 24h-MB patterns of adults (25-50 years) with T1DM and their intra-day glucose control (i.e. time in range and coefficient of variation) on the one hand. On the other hand, associations between he 24-h MB patterns and explanatory variables and cardiometabolic health markers will be investigated. To gain insight into the 24-hour behavior of adults with type 1 diabetes, 150 adults with type 1 diabetes will wear an Actigraph accelerometer, for 14 consecutive days. Daily glucose control will be measured using the participant's continuous glucose meter. Information about the explanatory variables and cardiometabolic health will be obtained by means of a questionnaire, diary and a few measurements (blood pressure, weight, length, Advanced Glycation Endproducts, hip-and waist circumference) during a one-off visit to one of the recruitment- and testing centers namely University hospital of Ghent or University hospital of Antwerp. The results of this cross-sectional study will inform future interventions focusing on the 24-hour movement behaviors in adults with T1DM.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Adults with type 1 diabetesAdults with type 1 diabetes (25-50 years) will wear an accelerometer to objectively measure their 24-hour movement behaviors. An online questionnaire and food diary will be completed to gain insight into the explanatory variables of 24-hour movement behaviors. Information on glucose control will be collect through the continuous glucose monitor of the participant.
Receives: Behavioral: 24-hour movement behavior

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. 24-hour movement behaviors

    All the movement behaviors performed within one day (i.e. PA, SB and sleep) will be objectively measured using an Actigraph wGT3X-BT accelerometer. The participants will wear the accelerometer for 14 consecutive days. At daytime, the accelerometer will be worn at the right hip, at night the accelerometer will be switched to the non-dominant wrist.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average 1 year

  2. Coefficient of variation (in %)

    Coefficient of variation is a measure for intra-day glucose control and will be measured by the continuous glucose monitor of the participants. Raw CGM data of 14 consecutive days will be downloaded from the receiver of the participants with the programme compatible with their CGM (i.e. Libreview, Dexcom studio, Glooko).

    Measured: Through study completion, an average 1 year

  3. Time in range

    Time in range is a measure for intra-day glucose control and will be measured by the continuous glucose monitor of the participants.
