  1. Outcomes were any occurrence of severe hypoglycemia, mean updated glucose coefficient of variation (CV) or average real variability (ARV). Model 1, adjusted for glucose-lowering group; Model 2, additionally adjusted for baseline age, race/ethnicity, diabetes duration, HbA1c, body mass index and eGFR; Model 3, additionally adjusted for insulin and sulphonylureas use. Data are Odds ratios (OR) or standardized β-estimates (95% CI) per 1 SD of C-peptide levels
