AimTo compare using propensity score analysis the outcome of beginning insulin therapy with basal, premix, mealtime+basal or mealtime insulin on the basis of data from 3031 people from the observational CREDIT (Cardiovascular Risk Evaluation in People with Type 2 Diabetes on Insulin Therapy) study. This approach overcomes likely confounding in baseline and unknown characteristics common to observational studies.MethodsEfficacy and safety outcomes were collected at baseline and at 1year in previously insulin-naive people. Propensity score matched groups using all available baseline data were defined to compare outcomes by pairs of insulin regimens.ResultsFrom 2659 people with available data, propensity score matches were achieved for 686 people starting premix or basal insulin, 542 starting basal+mealtime or premix insulin and 400 starting basal or basal+mealtime. HbA1c reduction did not differ between the three pairs of insulin regimens. However, the relative risk of overall and nocturnal hypoglycaemia was lower (p=0.010 to p
