Impact of Daily Physical Activity as Measured by Commonly Available Wearables on Mealtime Glucose Control in Type 1 Diabetes.


ABSTRACT: Objective: In contrast with exercise, or structured physical activity (PA), glycemic disturbances due to daily unstructured PA in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) is largely underresearched, with limited information on treatment recommendations. We present results from retrospective analysis of data collected under patients' free-living conditions that illuminate the association between PA, as measured by an off-the-shelf activity tracker, and postprandial blood glucose control. Research Design and Methods: Data from 37 patients with T1D during two clinical studies with identical data collection protocols were analyzed retrospectively: 4 weeks of continuous glucose monitoring, carbohydrate intake, insulin injections, and PA (assessed through wearable activity tracker) were collected in free-living conditions. Five-hour glucose area under curves (GAUCs) following the last-bolused meal of every day were computed to assess postprandial glucose excursions, and their relation with corresponding antecedent PA was analyzed using linear mixed-effects regression models, accounting for meal, insulin, and current glycemic state. Results: Datasets yielded 845 days of data from 37 subjects (22.8 ± 11.6 days/subject); postmeal GAUC was negatively associated with total daily PA measured by step count (P = 0.025), and total time spent performing higher than light-intensity PA (P = 0.042). Patients with higher median total daily PA exhibited lower average postprandial GAUC (P < 0.01). Additional analyses indicated that daily PA likely presents an immediate and delayed impact on glucose control. Conclusion: Daily PA assessed by commonly available sensors is significantly associated with glycemic exposure after an evening meal, indicating that quantitative assessment of PA may be useful in mealtime treatment decisions.
