Efficacy of automated insulin delivery in pregnant women with type 1 diabetes: a meta-analysis and trial sequential analysis of randomized controlled trials

Automated insulin delivery (AID) devices have shown to be a promising treatment to improve glycemic control in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). However, its efficacy in pregnant women with T1DM remains uncertain. PubMed, Scopus, Cochrane Central and ClinicalTrials.gov were systematically searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing AID to standard care (SC), defined as use of sensor-augmented pump and multiple daily insulin injections. Outcomes included time in range (TIR), nocturnal TIR, time in hypoglycemic and hyperglycemic ranges, among others. Sensitivity and trial sequential analyses (TSA) were performed. PROSPERO ID: CRD42023474398. We included five RCTs with a total of 236 pregnant women, of whom 117 (50.6
