Real-world data (RWD) provide valuable insights into their long-term eﬀectiveness beyond the controlled conditions of randomized trials. Objective: This study evaluates the eﬀectiveness of the mobile diabetes app ESYSTA in improving glycemic control using realworld evidence.  \nMethods: A retrospective analysis of 475 users was conducted to assess HbA1c changes after 6 months of usage and also longterm usage (12 and 15 months) . A linear mixed model was used to adjust for confounding factors.  \nAfter 6 months, ESYSTA users achieved a signiﬁcant HbA1c reduction of −0.59 (−0.70; −0.48) percentage points compared to baseline, which was maintained for up to 15 months. Users with higher baseline HbA1c showed greater reductions. Seventyﬁve percent of users tracked their blood glucose values consistently during the whole observation period.  \nConclusion: These real-world evidence ﬁndings demonstrate the eﬀectiveness of a mobile diabetes app in improving glycemic control over an extended period. While statistical adjustments addressed potential biases, missing data remain a challenge. Further research, including controlled studies, is needed to conﬁrm these real-world results and further explore the underlying mechanisms of sustained HbA1c improvement.  \nKeywords: diabetes mellitus; digital health intervention; eHealth; HbA1c; real-world data; real-world evidence; self-management  \n1. Introduction  \nFor insulin-treated people with diabetes, digital diabetes management tools have become a relevant therapy component to improve patients’ self-management and ultimately diabetes-related health outcomes [1] . Glycemic control has been shown to prevent both hypo- and hyperglycemicevents, thereby lowering the risk of diabetes-related microand macrovascular complications, like diabetic retinopathy or neuropathy and cardiovascular diseases [2, 3] .  \nStudies have demonstrated that blood glucose monitoring (BGM) in patients with both type 1 (T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) mellitus is associated with improved glycemic control. Continuous blood glucose monitors (CGMs) have been shown to increase the time in range and decrease  \nHbA1c levels [4] . However, (structured) BGM remains atime- and cost-eﬃcient alternative that can be as eﬀective for managing diabetes as CGMs [7–9]; for example, the self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) has been shown to improve the understanding of blood glucose trends and enhance the precision of medical therapy decisions and adjustments [8] .  \nThis retrospective, observational study is aimed at analyzing real-world data (RWD) from a digital device (ESYSTA, Emperra GmbH E-Health Technologies, Germany) that incorporates both CGM and BGM data to enhance the glycemic control and self-management of insulin-treated people with diabetes. Its eﬃcacy has been shown in a previous RCT and a controlled real-world study [10, 11] .
