Abstract
Although continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) devices are now considered the standard of care for people with type 1 diabetes mellitus, the uptake among people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has been slower and is focused on those receiving intensive insulin therapy. However, increasing evidence now supports the inclusion of CGM in the routine care of people with T2DM who are on basal insulin-only regimens or are managed with other medications. Expanding CGM to these groups could minimize hypoglycaemia while allowing efficient adaptation and escalation of therapies. Increasing evidence from randomized controlled trials and observational studies indicates that CGM is of clinical value in people with T2DM on non-intensive treatment regimens. If further studies confirm this finding, CGM could soon become a part of routine care for T2DM. In this Perspective we explore the potential benefits of widening the application of CGM in T2DM, along with the challenges that must be overcome for the evidence-based benefits of this technology to be delivered for all people with T2DM.

Abstract
Currently, glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) has been widely used to assess the glycemic control of patients with diabetes. However, HbA1c has certain limitations in describing both short-term and long-term glycemic control. To more accurately evaluate the glycemic control of diabetes patients, the continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) technology has emerged. CGM technology can provide robust data on short-term glycemic control and introduce new monitoring parameters such as time in range, time above range, and time below range as indicators of glycemic fluctuation. These indicators are used to describe the changes in glycemic control after interventions in clinical research or treatment modifications in diabetes patient care. Recent studies both domestically and internationally have shown that these indicators are not only associated with microvascular complications of diabetes mellitus but also closely related to cardiovascular disease complications and prognosis. Therefore, this article aims to comprehensively review the association between CGM-based glycemic parameters and cardiovascular disease complications by analyzing a large number of domestic and international literature. The purpose is to provide scientific evidence and guidance for the standardized application of these indicators in clinical practice, in order to better evaluate the glycemic control of diabetes patients and prevent the occurrence of cardiovascular disease complications. This research will contribute to improving the quality of life for diabetes patients and provide important references for clinical decision-making.

Effectiveness of Continuous Glucose Monitoring on Metrics of Glycemic Control in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials.

Abstract
PURPOSE To provide a systematic review and meta-analysis synthesizing the findings of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) in the management of adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) on glucose control and clinical outcomes. METHODS MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane were searched for RCTs that assessed the effectiveness of real-time CGM (rt-CGM) or flash CGM (FGM) in adults (≥18 years) with T2DM that reported on at least 1 of the following outcomes: hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), time in range, time in hyperglycemia, or time in hypoglycemia. The GRADE approach was used to assess certainty of evidence for primary outcomes. RESULTS Fourteen RCTs assessing CGM were included, with 825 patients in 9 RCTs using rt-CGM and 822 in 5 RCTs using FGM. Moderate certainty of evidence indicated that use of CGM had a modest but statistically significant reduction in HbA1c levels of about 0.32%. Our analyses of each device type separately showed similar reductions in HbA1c (0.34% and 0.33%, respectively, for rt-CGM and FGM), with trends for improvement in other glucose metrics favoring rt-CGM over self-monitored blood glucose. CONCLUSION Both rt-CGM and flash CGM led to modest but statistically significant declines in HbA1c among individuals with T2DM, with little heterogeneity in the results. However, the duration of the included RCTs was relatively short and few studies reported on important clinical outcomes, such as adverse events, emergency department use, or hospitalization. Longer term studies are needed to determine if the short-term improvements in glucose control leads to improvements in clinically important outcomes.

Evaluation of association between time in range, a continuous glucose monitoring metric, and cardiac autonomic neuropathy in type 2 diabetes patients. Ann Afr Med 2024; 23:19-24.

Abstract
Introduction Time in range (TIR), a metric of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) provides better information regarding the individual's glycemic variability than a static measure like glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c). TIR is emerging as an independent risk factor for diabetic complications, both microvascular and macrovascular complications independent of HbA1c. Hence, this study evaluates the association between TIR and cardiac autonomic neuropathy (CAN) in type 2 diabetic patients. Materials and Methods A total of 42 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus were enrolled in this study and underwent a 3-day CGM using the "FreeStyle Libre Pro Flash Glucose Monitoring System Sensor" along with tests for CAN within the 3 days of attaching the CGM. Results Out of 42 patients, 36 patients (85.7%) were diagnosed with CAN (early CAN 57.1% and definite CAN 28.6%) and the mean TIR was 64.4% ±23.5%. Out of those with TIR <70%, 42.9% were affected with definite CAN compared to only 14.3% among those with TIR >70%. Patients with more severe CAN were found to have a lower TIR (P = 0.115). Conclusion The study found a high prevalence of cardiac autonomic neuropathy (CAN) of around 85.7% in type 2 diabetes patients. Lower TIR values were associated with a higher incidence of definite CAN (42.9% vs. 14.3% in TIR <70% vs. >70% groups). The findings suggest TIR is inversely associated with the presence and severity of cardiac autonomic neuropathy in type 2 diabetic patients and also a potential link between TIR and CAN severity.

Abstract
Background: The glycemia risk index (GRI) is a new composite metric derived from continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) data to assess the quality of glycemia. This study investigates the association between the GRI and albuminuria. Methods: Professional CGM and urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) data from 866 individuals with type 2 diabetes were retrospectively reviewed. Albuminuria and macroalbuminuria were defined as one or more UACR measurements ≥30 and ≥300 mg/g, respectively. Results: The overall prevalence of albuminuria and macroalbuminuria was 36.6% and 13.9%, respectively. Participants with a higher UACR had a significantly higher hyperglycemia component and GRI score than those with a lower UACR (all P < 0.001), although the hypoglycemia component did not differ among the groups. Multiple logistic regression analyses that adjusted for various factors affecting albuminuria revealed that the odds ratio (OR) of albuminuria was 1.13 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.02-1.27, P = 0.039) per increase in the GRI zone. The results were similar for the risk of macroalbuminuria (OR: 1.42 [95% CI: 1.20-1.69], P < 0.001), and that association remained after adjusting for glycated hemoglobin (OR: 1.31 [95% CI: 1.10-1.58], P = 0.004). Conclusions: GRI is strongly associated with albuminuria, especially macroalbuminuria, in type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
AIMS Diabetic retinopathy (DR) can occur even in well-controlled type 2 diabetes, suggesting residual risks of DR in this population. In particular, we investigated the combined effect of thyroid function and glycaemic control assessed by an emerging metric, time in range (TIR) with DR. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this cross-sectional study, a total of 2740 euthyroid patients with type 2 diabetes were included. Thyroid indicators, including thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), free triiodothyronine, free thyroxine, thyroid peroxidase antibody and thyroglobulin antibody, were measured. TIR was measured using continuous glucose monitoring data. RESULTS Overall, the multivariable-adjusted odds ratios (ORs) for DR across ascending tertiles of TSH were 1.00 (reference), 1.06 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.85-1.32), and 1.48 (95% CI 1.19-1.85). Even in well-controlled participants who achieved a TIR target of >70% (n = 1449), the prevalence of DR was 23.8%, which was significantly related to TSH (OR = 1.54, 95% CI 1.12-2.12, highest vs. lowest TSH tertile). Participants were then classified into 6 groups by the joint categories of TIR (>70%, ≤70%) and TSH (tertiles), and the multivariable-adjusted ORs for DR were highest in TIR ≤70% and the highest TSH tertile group (OR = 1.96, 95% CI 1.41-2.71) when compared with the TIR >70% and the lowest TSH tertile group. CONCLUSIONS In type 2 diabetic patients with well-controlled glycaemic status, higher TSH within the normal range was associated with an increased risk of DR. The combination of suboptimal TSH and TIR further increased the risk of DR.

Abstract
PURPOSE Time in range (TIR) has surfaced as a key continuous glucose monitoring (CGM)-derived metric, which was linked to diabetes-related outcomes. We aimed to investigate the association of TIR with the risk of lower extremity atherosclerotic disease (LEAD) among patients with type 2 diabetes. METHODS A total of 1351 adult patients with type 2 diabetes were prospectively recruited from a single center in Shanghai, China. TIR was obtained from CGM data at baseline. LEAD was measured with color Doppler ultrasonography. Cox proportion hazard regression analysis was used to assess the association between TIR and the risk of incident/progressive LEAD. RESULTS During a median follow-up of 7.4 years, 450 participants developed incident/progressive LEAD. The multivariable-adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) for incident/progressive LEAD across different levels of TIR ( > 85%, 71~85%, 51~70%, and ≤50%) were 1.00, 1.15 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.87-1.52), 1.37 (95% CI 1.04-1.80) and 1.46 (95% CI 1.10-1.94) (P for trend = 0.004), respectively. With each 10% decrease in TIR, the multivariable-adjusted risk of incident/progressive LEAD increased by 7% (95% CI 1.02-1.11). Similar results were found in the association between TIR and incident LEAD as the secondary outcome (P for trend < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The current study found an inverse association of TIR with the risk of LEAD among patients with type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION During acute feeding trials, consuming a large dose of whey protein (WP) before meals improves postprandial glucose regulation in people with type 2 diabetes. It is unclear if the reported benefits of premeal WP supplementation are translatable to everyday care or are associated with clinically meaningful, real-world glycemic outcomes. This study examined the application of a novel, premeal shot containing a low dose of WP on parameters of free-living glycemic control in people with type 2 diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS In a randomized, placebo-controlled, single-blind crossover design, 18 insulin naive individuals with type 2 diabetes ((mean±SD) age, 50±6 years; HbA1c (glycated hemoglobin), 7.4%±0.8%; duration of diabetes, 6±5 years) consumed a ready-to-drink WP shot (15 g of protein) or a nutrient-depleted placebo beverage 10 min before breakfast, lunch, and dinner over a 7-day free-living period. Free-living glucose control was measured by blinded continuous glucose monitoring and determined by the percentage of time spent above range (>10 mmol/L), in euglycemic range (3.9-10.0 mmol/L), below range (<3.9 mmol/L) and mean glucose concentrations. RESULTS Mealtime WP supplementation reduced the prevalence of daily hyperglycemia by 8%±19% (30%±25% vs 38%±28%, p<0.05), thereby enabling a 9%±19% (~2 hours/day) increase in the time spent in euglycemia (p<0.05). Mean 24-hour blood glucose concentrations were 0.6±1.2 mmol/L lower during WP compared with placebo (p<0.05). Similar improvements in glycemic control were observed during the waken period with premeal WP supplementation (p<0.05), whereas nocturnal glycemic control was unaffected (p>0.05). Supplemental compliance/acceptance was high (>98%), and no adverse events were reported. CONCLUSIONS Consuming a novel premeal WP shot containing 15 g of protein before each main meal reduces the prevalence of daily hyperglycemia, thereby enabling a greater amount of time spent in euglycemic range per day over 7 days of free-living in people with type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The metrics generated from continuous glucose monitoring (CGM), such as time in range (TIR), are strongly correlated with diabetes complications. This study explored the association of perioperative CGM-derived metrics with major amputation risk in patients with diabetic foot osteomyelitis (DFO). METHODS This study recruited 55 DFO patients with grade 3-4 wounds according to the Wagner Diabetic Foot Ulcer Classification System, all of whom underwent CGM for 5 days during the perioperative period. The CGM-derived metrics were defined in accordance with the most recent international consensus recommendations. RESULTS Patients with major amputation had significantly less TIR and higher time below range (TBR) (all p < 0.05). In binary logistic regression analyses, a lower TIR was associated with the risk of major amputation (odds ratio: 0.83 (95% confidence interval: 0.71-0.99), p = 0.039). This association remained statistically significant after adjustments for age, sex, body mass index, type of diabetes, smoking, drinking, durations of diabetes and DFU, ankle-brachial index, albumin, estimated-glomerular filtration rate, Society for Vascular Surgery wound, ischemia, and foot infection (WIfi) stage, multidrug-resistant organisms, and hemoglobin A1c. Further adjustment for the mean amplitude of glycemic excursion (MAGE) reduced this association. TBR was also independently associated with the risk of major amputation (odds ratio: 1.60 (95% confidence interval: 1.17-2.18), p = 0.003); this association persisted after adjustment for MAGE. CONCLUSION Perioperative TIR (3.9-10.0 mmol/L) and TBR (<3.9 mmol/L) were significantly associated with major amputation in hospitalized patients with DFO.

Cardiovascular Autonomic Reflex Tests and 7 Heart Rate Variability Indices for Early Diagnosis of Cardiovascular Autonomic Neuropathy in Type 2 Diabetes Individuals. Curr Diabetes Rev 2022; 18:e270821195908.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy (CAN) is a common complication of type 2 Diabetes mellitus (T2D), and prevalence varies according to the methodology used. CAN should be diagnosed in the subclinical stage when an intensive treatment of T2D could avoid the progression to irreversible phases. OBJECTIVE Determine the prevalence of early involvement (EI) of CAN in T2D individuals comparing two methodologies. METHODS This was a cross-sectional study that included 183 T2D individuals who were monitored in a Tertiary centre. The diagnosis of CAN was based on the results of four cardiovascular autonomic reflex tests (CARTs: expiration-inspiration index, Valsalva maneuver, orthostatic test, and changes in blood pressure after standing) and of seven heart rate variability (7HRV) indices (CARTs plus the spectral analysis). The findings were validated in an independent cohort comprised of 562 T2D individuals followed in a Primary care setting. RESULTS With the use of 7HRV, 30.6% and 77.8% of individuals in the Tertiary and in the Primary centers, respectively, were classified as without CAN; 25.1% and 15.3% as EI and 44.3% and 6.9% as definitive CAN, respectively. The use of CARTs decreased the proportion of individuals without CAN in both centers (7.1% and 47%) and increased the frequency of EI (30.6% and 36.6%) and definitive CAN (62.3% and 16.4%), respectively. The concordance between both evaluated methodologies was weak. CONCLUSION Higher proportions of T2D individuals were diagnosed with EI and with definitive CAN with the use of CARTs.

BMJ Open Diabetes Res Care 2022; 10:10/1/e002573. [PMID: 34980591 PMCID: PMC8724710 DOI: 10.1136/bmjdrc-2021-002573] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/27/2021] [Accepted: 11/09/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM)-derived time in range (TIR) correlates with hemoglobin A1c (A1c) among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM); however, there is a paucity of data evaluating its association with microvascular complications. We conducted this systematic review to examine the association between TIR and microvascular complications of diabetic retinopathy (DR), diabetic nephropathy (DN), and diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). We conducted a comprehensive literature search on PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science online databases following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. Full-text original articles that evaluated the association between CGM-derived TIR and risk of microvascular complications and were published between 2010 and June 2021 were included in our systematic review. The quality of the included studies was evaluated using the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute Quality Assessment Tool for Observational Cohort and Cross-Sectional Studies. Data were analyzed using qualitative synthesis. Eleven studies on a total of 13 987 patients were included in the systematic review. The median sample size, baseline A1c, and diabetes duration were 466 patients (range: 105-5901), 8.2% (SD 0.5%), and 11.3 years (1.0), respectively. Majority of the studies were conducted in Asia (10 out of 11). Four studies evaluated the relationship between CGM-derived TIR and DR and CGM-derived TIR and DN, while seven studies evaluated the relationship between CGM-derived TIR and DPN. A 10% increase in TIR was associated with a reduction in albuminuria, severity of DR, and prevalence of DPN and cardiac autonomic neuropathy. In addition, an association was observed between urinary albumin to creatinine ratio but not with estimated glomerular filtration rate. This review summarizes recent evidence supporting an association between CGM-derived TIR and microvascular complications among patients with T2DM. A larger-scale multicenter investigation that includes more diverse participants is warranted to further validate the utility of TIR as a predictor of diabetic microvascular complications.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the effect of discontinuing continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) after 8 months of CGM use in adults with type 2 diabetes treated with basal without bolus insulin. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS This multicenter trial had an initial randomization to either real-time CGM or blood glucose monitoring (BGM) for 8 months followed by 6 months in which the BGM group continued to use BGM (n = 57) and the CGM group was randomly reassigned either to continue CGM (n = 53) or discontinue CGM with resumption of BGM for glucose monitoring (n = 53). RESULTS In the group that discontinued CGM, mean time in range (TIR) 70-180 mg/dL, which improved from 38% before initiating CGM to 62% after 8 months of CGM, decreased after discontinuing CGM to 50% at 14 months (mean change from 8 to 14 months -12% [95% CI -21% to -3%], P = 0.01). In the group that continued CGM use, little change was found in TIR from 8 to 14 months (baseline 44%, 8 months 56%, 14 months 57%, mean change from 8 to 14 months 1% [95% CI -11% to 12%], P = 0.89). Comparing the two groups at 14 months, the adjusted treatment group difference in mean TIR was -6% (95% CI -16% to 4%, P = 0.20). CONCLUSIONS In adults with type 2 diabetes treated with basal insulin who had been using real-time CGM for 8 months, discontinuing CGM resulted in a loss of about one-half of the initial gain in TIR that had been achieved during CGM use.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To provide evidence-based recommendations regarding the use of advanced technology in the management of persons with diabetes mellitus to clinicians, diabetes-care teams, health care professionals, and other stakeholders. METHODS The American Association of Clinical Endocrinology (AACE) conducted literature searches for relevant articles published from 2012 to 2021. A task force of medical experts developed evidence-based guideline recommendations based on a review of clinical evidence, expertise, and informal consensus, according to established AACE protocol for guideline development. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Primary outcomes of interest included hemoglobin A1C, rates and severity of hypoglycemia, time in range, time above range, and time below range. RESULTS This guideline includes 37 evidence-based clinical practice recommendations for advanced diabetes technology and contains 357 citations that inform the evidence base. RECOMMENDATIONS Evidence-based recommendations were developed regarding the efficacy and safety of devices for the management of persons with diabetes mellitus, metrics used to aide with the assessment of advanced diabetes technology, and standards for the implementation of this technology. CONCLUSIONS Advanced diabetes technology can assist persons with diabetes to safely and effectively achieve glycemic targets, improve quality of life, add greater convenience, potentially reduce burden of care, and offer a personalized approach to self-management. Furthermore, diabetes technology can improve the efficiency and effectiveness of clinical decision-making. Successful integration of these technologies into care requires knowledge about the functionality of devices in this rapidly changing field. This information will allow health care professionals to provide necessary education and training to persons accessing these treatments and have the required expertise to interpret data and make appropriate treatment adjustments.
