Structured population data were available for 3 of 3 supporting studies. 3 studies described participants with type 1 diabetes. 1 study described adult participants.

Evidence uses heterogeneous comparison contexts: active_comparator, usual_care.

Mediterranean diet group

Core clinician-reference fields are available or not applicable.

Participants followed a low-carbohydrate diet with 50-80g of carbohydrates per day.

Low-carbohydrate diet group

Individuals were randomly assigned to the intervention LC diet group or the MED diet group in a 1:1 ratio.

Participants followed a Mediterranean diet rich in vegetables and low in red meat.

Authoritative quality diagnostic: age group conflict.

Traditional Diabetes Diet

Participants followed a moderate carbohydrate diet for 4 weeks.

Moderate Carbohydrate Diet

Adults with T1D (N = 54) and inadequate glycemic control (HbA1c ≥ 7.5%) were randomized in a cross-over design to a moderate carbohydrate diet (30 percent of total energy from carbohydrates) for 4 weeks.

CC (carbohydrate counting)

Participants received individualized carbohydrate meal sizes using the mylife CamAPS FX system.

SMA (simplified meal announcement)

Participants underwent two 3 month periods with the mylife CamAPS FX system to compare SMA (individualised carbohydrate meal sizes) with CC, in a randomly assigned order.
