FIGURE 1
Hypoglycaemia endpoints, by baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) subgroup. Overall symptomatic hypoglycaemic events were defined as severe (requiring third‐party assistance) or confirmed blood glucose <3.1 mmol/L [with symptoms]). Nocturnal symptomatic hypoglycaemic events were defined as severe or blood‐glucose confirmed with symptoms, occurring between 00:01 and 05:59 am. The number of hypoglycaemic events was analysed using a negative binomial regression model (log link) with the logarithm of the time period in which a hypoglycaemic event was considered treatment emergent as offset. The model included treatment, number of oral antidiabetic drugs, region, gender, dosing time and interaction of kidney function group with treatment as fixed factors, and age as a covariate. Because of a very low number of events, severe hypoglycaemia was analysed using a simplified model. CI, confidence interval; degludec, insulin degludec; glargine U300, insulin glargine 300 units/mL

Change from baseline to end of treatment (EOT) in glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c), by baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) subgroup. Mean change in HbA1c from baseline to EOT was analysed using a mixed model for repeated measures with an unstructured residual covariance matrix. Treatment, number of oral antidiabetic drugs, region, sex, dosing time, and interaction between treatment and eGFR category were included as fixed factors. Age and baseline HbA1c were included as covariates. The model included the interaction between visit number and all explanatory variables. CI, confidence interval; degludec, insulin degludec 200 units/mL; glargine U300, insulin glargine 300 units/mL; SD, standard deviation
