A study in Diabetes Care showed that type 2 diabetes patients who used mDiabetes, a smartphone-based app with an individualized diabetes management algorithm, significantly improved their A1C levels and had more significant A1C reductions below the 7.0% threshold after 24 weeks, compared with those who used a paper logbook. South Korean researchers recruited 172 patients, ages 19 to 80, and found that 31.1% of those in the mDiabetes group experienced a drop in A1C levels below 7.0% without experiencing hypoglycemia, compared with 17.1% among those in the logbook group.
