Smartphone Bolus Feature Increases Number of Insulin Boluses in People With Low Bolus Frequency.
Article in Journal of diabetes science and technology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
backgroundThe t:connect mobile app from Tandem Diabetes Care recently added a feature to allow t:slim X2 insulin pump users to initiate an insulin bolus from their personal smartphone. User experience and user interface considerations prioritized safety and ease of use, and we examined whether the smartphone bolus feature changed bolus behavior in individuals who bolused less than three times/day.
methodsWe performed a retrospective analysis of t:slim X2 insulin pump users in the United States who had remotely updated their insulin pump software to be compatible with the smartphone bolus version of the app and who gave less than three boluses per day prior to the smartphone bolus update.
resultsOf the 4470 early adopters who met these criteria, the median number of boluses was 2.2 per day (prior to smartphone bolus update) versus 2.7 per day (after smartphone bolus update), equating to approximately half a bolus more delivered per day (
conclusionThis analysis found a significant increase in bolusing behavior among early adopters of the smartphone bolus feature of the t:connect mobile app.
