4N=173 and 158 for 0-12 week and 12-24 week, respectively;
Abbreviation: BBT=basal bolus therapy (glargine at bedtime plus mealtime insulin lispro); LM=lispro mix 50/50 (50% insulin lispro protamine suspension and 50% lispro); LS Mean=Least square mean; SE=Standard error; NB = Negative binomial; PWNB = Piecewise negative binomial
