Disparities in Time to Technology Initiation in the Year Following Diagnosis of Type 1 Diabetes among Youth: A Retrospective Cohort Study.
Article in Journal of diabetes science and technology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundDespite rapidly evolving diabetes technology and evidence that early access to technologies improves outcomes, there is disparate use based on socio-demographic factors. We sought to characterize technology uptake in the year following diagnosis of type 1 diabetes in youth based on race/ethnicity, insurance, and household structure.
methodsWe conducted a retrospective cohort study of 692 youth diagnosed with and treated for type 1 diabetes between 2016 and 2020 at a children's hospital. Medical record review provided outcomes of interest, including time to initiation of continuous glucose monitors (CGMs), insulin pump therapy, or both. We used cumulative incidence curves and competing risks regression to compare time to initiation by socio-demographic groups.
resultsThere were 692 youth, 59% male, diagnosed at a mean age of 10.8 (±4.2) years, in the sample. The majority (83.2%) were White, English-speaking (94.4%), and privately insured (76.7%), with 71.7% living in two-parent households. Cumulative incidence curves and competing risks regression showed that publicly insured youth had a lower likelihood of starting diabetes technologies in the year following diagnosis than privately insured youth. Black and Hispanic youth were less likely than white youth to start CGM and insulin pumps. Youth from non-intact households similarly exhibited lower rates of technology uptake. Hazard ratios for time to both technologies were comparable to those for time to insulin pump.
conclusionsThese findings highlight the importance of developing interventions to advance diabetes technology use from onset of type 1 diabetes for all youth.
