Brief Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the impact on blood glucose control and quality of life in children and youth with type 1 diabetes in Mali by switching the insulin regimen from human insulin via needle and syringe to long-acting biosimilar insulin glargine delivered by reusable pens combined with short-acting insulin via needle and syringe
Detailed Description: Analog insulins are widely used in middle- and high-income countries However use of analog insulin remains limited in lower-income countries due to their increased cost and lack of access and human insulin remains the mainstay of treatment in these settings

Long-acting basal analog insulin such as glargine have the benefit of a longer duration up to 24 hours and a minimal peak action and generally only one injection per day is required Although glargine insulin has been shown to reduce the risk of overnight hypoglycemia consistent improvement in blood glucose control measured by HbA1c when compared to human insulin has not been shown and its impact on quality of life is also inconclusive Furthermore these studies have all been done in highly resourced countries

Life for a Child LFAC has been providing diabetes supplies insulin syringes meters and strips for blood glucose self-monitoring diabetes-related education mentoring and technical support to Santé Diabète in Mali since 2008 In 2021 LFAC commenced supplying Basaglar glargine insulin with insulin pen devices HumaPen Ergo ll This provided a unique opportunity to investigate the effect of introducing glargine Basaglar insulin in the low-resource setting of Mali one of the worlds poorest countries
