Summary

This study tested a mobile app called Diactive-1 that guides children and teens with type 1 diabetes through resistance exercises like squats and band pulls. Over 24 weeks, researchers tracked whether the app helped lower daily insulin doses. The trial enrolled 62 participants aged 8-18 and measured changes in insulin use, blood sugar control, and fitness levels.
