Glycemic Management

A 15-day integrated continuous glucose monitor registered accurate glucose values similar to those measured through venous blood samples, according to a presenter.

Data from the Barbara Davis Center for Diabetes at University of Colorado show pilots with type 1 diabetes are not just thriving in the air, but also with their diabetes management.

The prevalence of diabetes in the U.S. did not significantly change from 2013 to 2023, but the percentage of adults with diabetes achieving glycemic control fell after 2020, according to a research letter published in JAMA.

Researchers found that women with hypertension who followed a very low-calorie ketogenic diet had lower systolic and diastolic blood pressure at 6 months than those who participated in intermittent fasting or had no dietary restrictions.

The FDA has approved the first rapid-acting biosimilar insulin product for glycemic control in people with diabetes.

Continuous glucose monitoring can lower mortality risk in addition to improving glycemic control for people with diabetes, according to a speaker at the World Congress on Insulin Resistance, Diabetes & Cardiovascular Disease.

In a small study of patients with type 1 diabetes using an automated insulin delivery system, semaglutide improved glucose control vs. placebo, researchers reported at the European Association for the Study of Diabetes Annual Meeting.

Adults with type 2 diabetes at high risk for cardiovascular events were more likely to sustain an HbA1c of 6.5% or less at 2 years with tirzepatide if they lost more weight and had improved beta-cell function, according to new data.

Pregnant women with diabetes can use automated insulin delivery systems with settings optimized to achieve tight glycemic targets, according to two speakers at the Association of Diabetes Care and Education Specialists annual meeting.

A majority of people with diabetes rely on their primary care provider for diabetes management and believe using drugs such as GLP-1 receptor agonists are enough to manage their disease, according to survey results.
