Adherence to the Mediterranean diet and sleep quality are inter-correlated with flash glucose monitoring (FGM)-measured glycemia among children with type 1 diabetes.

Background: We examined the inter-correlation between diet quality, objectively measured sleep duration, and subjectively measured sleep quality with flash glucose monitoring (FGM)-measured glycemia among young patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D).

Materials And Methods: Following cross-sectional design, Fitbit accelerometers were used to objectively assess sleep duration, while the validated questionnaires Pittsburgh sleep quality index and Mediterranean diet (MD) adherence were used to subjectively assess sleep quality and diet quality, respectively. Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and FGM-reported glycemia components among children with T1D were assessed as well.
