The scientific approach applied at mySugr in diabetology, algorithms or psychology, is aimed at improving the lives of people with diabetes. Together with partners across the globe, we explore and communicate the impact of mySugr as well as new ways to make diabetes suck less.

In a clinical study to evaluate the efficacy of the mySugr logbook, a statistically significant reduction of diabetes distress was shown in T1D, T2D and gestational diabetes. The use of mySugr led to a significant improvement in diabetes distress after 3 months of use.1
Besides improving diabetes distress, there is evidence that the mySugr logbook can also improve glycaemic control. After 3 months of using mySugr, more participants in a clinical trial achieved better glycaemic control compared to the control group. The chance of achieving optimal glycaemic control nearly doubled in the intervention group compared to the control group.2
The use of the mySugr app significantly reduces the occurrence of severe hyperglycaemic and hypoglycaemic glucose measurements. In a clinical trial the intervention group had a 33% lower risk for severe hyperglycaemic events and a 25% lower risk for severe hypoglycaemic events compared to the control group.1
