The high disease burden of type 2 diabetes seriously affects the quality of life of patients, and with the deep integration of the Internet and healthcare, the application of electronic tools and information technology to has become a trend for disease management. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of different forms and durations of E-health interventions in achieving glycemic control in type 2 diabetes patients. PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, and Clinical Trials.gov were searched for randomized controlled trials reporting different forms of E-health intervention for glycemic control in type 2 diabetes patients, including comprehensive measures (CM), smartphone applications (SA), phone calls (PC), short message service (SMS), websites (W), wearable devices (WD), and usual care. The inclusion criteria were as follows: (1) adults (age≥18) with type 2 diabetes mellitus; (2) intervention period ≥1 month; (3) outcome HbA1c (%); and (4) randomized control of E-health based approaches. Cochrane tools were used to assess the risk of bias. R 4.1.2 was used to conduct the Bayesian network meta-analysis. A total of 88 studies with 13,972 type 2 diabetes patients were included. Compared to the usual care group, the SMS-based intervention was superior in reducing HbA1c levels (mean difference (MD)-0.56, 95% confidence interval (CI): -0.82 to -0.31), followed by SA (MD-0.45, 95% CI: -0.61 to -0.30), CM (MD-0.41, 95% CI: -0.57 to -0.25), W (MD-0.39, 95% CI: -0.60 to -0.18) ...
