Background: The erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) is a widely used haematological test that indirectly measures inflammation in the body. It is influenced by various factors, including age, sex, and physiological condition. Altitude is another critical factor due to its impact on red blood cell physiology and plasma protein composition.

Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder that affects millions of individuals worldwide. Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) offers a prevalent method for continuously monitoring interstitial glucose levels instead of traditional self-monitoring of blood glucose (BG), eliminating the need for finger pricking and providing only discrete data. However, challenges in accuracy persist in CGM, including substantial noise interference and tissue fluid erosion, as well as the pH fluctuations in the localized ISF microenvironment during acute inflammation periods.
