What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Summary

This study investigates how women with type 1 diabetes manually adjust their automated insulin delivery (AID) systems to manage blood sugar changes during their menstrual cycle. Researchers will interview 69 women to catalog strategies like entering fake carbohydrates or changing insulin settings, and measure how often these adjustments are needed. The goal is to gather data that could help design smarter AID algorithms that automatically account for menstrual cycle-related insulin sensitivity shifts.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this study could help design automated insulin delivery systems that automatically adjust for menstrual cycle changes, reducing the burden on women with type 1 diabetes.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study with a small sample size (69 participants), so findings may not apply to all women. It identifies problems but does not test a solution.
