741-P: More Time-in-Range during Days with Structured Exercise vs. Sedentary Days in Adults with Type 1 Diabetes

Abstract

Structured exercise can help patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) achieve physical activity targets, however the effects of exercise type on percent time in range (TIR) and glucose variability are unclear. The Type 1 Diabetes Exercise Initiative Pilot Study provided the opportunity to examine glycemic control on structured exercise days compared to sedentary days. Adults with T1D ([mean ± SD] age= 32 ± 14 years; HbA1C= 7.8 ± 1.6%), using a continuous glucose monitor, were assigned to complete twice weekly aerobic, interval or resistance exercise sessions, using study-developed instructional videos for a period of 4 weeks. TIR was higher (Figure 1) and mean glucose concentration was lower overall on exercise days compared with sedentary days (160 ± 52 vs. 176 ± 49 mg/dL, P<0.001). Glucose variability was similar between exercise and sedentary days (coefficient of variation: 36 ± 12% vs. 37% ± 12%). In summary, participants had lower 24-hour mean glucose levels and a greater percent time in range on active days compared with inactive days. Disclosure M.
