Introduction: As a CGM-derived indicator, 'time in range' (TIR) is emerging as a key indicator for accurate assessment of glycaemic control. However, there is few report focusing on the correlation of TIR with albumuria and renal fuction. The aim of this work was to investigate whether TIR, as well as nocturnal TIR and hypoglycaemic events is related to the presence and severity of albuminuria and decrease of eGFR in type 2 diabetes.

Background: Time in range (TIR), a novel proxy measure of glucose control, is found closely related to diabetic microangiopathy and some other chronic complications, but the correlation between TIR and lower limb angiopathy has not been studied yet. Our purpose is to explore the relationship between TIR and abnormal ankle-brachial index(ABI) in type 2 diabetes.

Methods: We retrospectively collected patients' information from the database and performed cross-sectional analysis.

Aims: The aim of this retrospective single-center is to research the relationship between time in range(TIR), an important novel metric of glycemic control, assessed with continuous glucose monitoring(CGM) and brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity(BaPWV), a unique index of systemic arterial stiffness in type 2 diabetes.

Methods: Study participants included 469 hospitalized patients with type 2 diabetes and no history of serious cardiovascular disease who underwent CGM and BaPWV measurements. TIR of 3.

Background: Several recent studies have found that Osteocalcin (OCN), a multifunctional protein secreted exclusively by osteoblasts, is beneficial to glucose metabolism and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, the effects of OCN on islets function especially islet ɑ cells function in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus characterized by a bi-hormonal disease are still unclear. The purpose of this cross-sectional study was to investigate the relationship between serum OCN and the secretion of islet β cells and ɑ cells in Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Background: Osteocalcin, a protein secreted mainly by mature osteoblasts, has been shown to be involved in glucose metabolism through various pathways. However, few studies has explored the association between osteocalcin and Time in range (TIR). Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) -derived metrics, such as TIR and other indexes have been gradually and widely used in clinical practice to assess glucose fluctuations.

Aims: To exlpore whether time in range(TIR) was associated with orthostatic blood pressure(BP) changes in type 2 diabetes(T2DM).

Methods: A total of 342 T2DM patients were recruited. TIR was defined as the time percentage spent within the target range(3.

Background: Time in range (TIR) is advocated as key metric of glycemic control and is reported to be associated with microvascular complications of diabetes. Sudomotor dysfunction is among the earliest detectable diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). We set about to research the relationship between TIR including overnight TIR and sudomotor function detected by SUDOSCAN with the intention of exploring the correlation of TIR including overnight TIR and early DPN in type 1 diabetes (T1D).

Background: Time in range (TIR), as a novel metric for glycemic control, has robust relevance with diabetic complications. Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is characterized by sudomotor dysfunction.

Aim: To explore the relationship between TIR obtained from continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) and sudomotor function detected by SUDOSCAN in subjects with type 2 diabetes.
