Objective: To compare the effects of real-time continuous glucose monitoring (RT-CGM) and an Internet blood glucose monitoring system (IBGMS) on glycated hemoglobin levels in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus treated with insulin.
Methods: Fifty-seven patients with type 2 diabetes treated with insulin were assigned randomly to 1 of 2 groups. Group 1 had the results of their self-monitoring of blood glucose level monitored biweekly using an IBGMS.
Objective: To assess the long-term effect of an Internet blood glucose monitoring system (IBGMS) on patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus and patients with type 2 diabetes.
Methods: In all, 1200 patients were offered to be taught to communicate with their endocrinologists using standardized glucose level reports by e-mail, and received feedback within 24 hours. The first 926 patients enrolled were reviewed consecutively from March 2011 to October 2013.
Aims: To compare treatment satisfaction between real-time continuous glucose monitoring (RT-CGM) and internet-blood glucose monitoring (IBGM) in adults with type 2 diabetes treated with insulin.
Methods: This study recruited 40 patients who completed a parallel randomized controlled trial comparing a RT-CGM to an IBGM. Patients in the RT-CGM group monitored their blood-glucose levels bi-weekly and emailed results to their endocrinologist.
Objective: To compare the effects of real-time continuous glucose monitoring (RT-CGM) and an Internet blood glucose monitoring system (IBGMS) on glycated hemoglobin levels in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus treated with insulin.
Methods: Fifty-seven patients with type 2 diabetes treated with insulin were assigned randomly to 1 of 2 groups. Group 1 had the results of their self-monitoring of blood glucose level monitored biweekly using an IBGMS.
Objective: To assess the effect of an Internet-based glucose monitoring system (IBGMS) on A1C levels in patients with type 2 diabetes treated with insulin.
Research Design And Methods: This trial involved 50 patients randomly assigned to receive either conventional treatment alone or with additional follow-up through an IBGMS for 6 months. Patients randomized to the intervention group uploaded blood glucose readings every 2 weeks to a secure Web site for review and receipt of feedback from their endocrinologist.
Objectives: To investigate apolipoprotein B (apoB) levels in adult patients with type 1 diabetes with no history of cardiovascular disease and not receiving lipid-lowering therapy.
Design And Methods: Subjects (n=169) were divided into two groups based on gender. Primary analysis examined lipid parameters and glycosylated hemoglobin.
Objective: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in people with type 2 diabetes. Apolipoprotein B (apoB) is known to be a better marker of CVD risk than low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C). This study investigated apoB levels in people with type 2 diabetes.
