Safety and effectiveness of long-acting versus intermediate-acting insulin for patients with type 1 diabetes: a systematic review and individual patient data network meta-analysis (IPD-NMA)
Impact:
- Aims to evaluate the comparative safety and effectiveness of long-acting insulin analogues (detemir/glargine) versus intermediate-acting (NPH and lente) and long-acting insulin in different subgroups of patients with type 1 diabetes
- The individual patient data network meta-analysis (IPD NMA) results of this study will provide tailored evidence to improve existing guideline recommendations and inform decision-makers (e.g., the American and Canadian Diabetes Association, and the European Association for the Study of Diabetes) about the safety and effectiveness of these interventions
