The aim of the study was to explore the relationship between daily glycemic variability (GV) and visit-to-visit glycemic variability (VVV) in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM). A total of 156 outpatients with T2DM who had undergone continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) for 5 days were included in this study. Indices of GV, i.e., standard deviation and coefficient of variation (CV) of glucose, mean amplitude of glycemic excursion (MAGE) and mean of the daily differences (MODD) were calculated from the CGM data. VVV was calculated as CV of HbA1c or glycated albumin (GA) from HbA1c or GA measured for 3 years. Relationships among clinical parameters, GV and VVV were evaluated. Age was positively, and BMI and C-peptide index were inversely correlated with GV such as CV glucose and MAGE, while BMI was positively correlated with VVV. Mean glucose rather than GV was correlated with VVV. In contrast, time in range (TIR, 70-180 mg/dL) was correlated with both mean HbA1c or GA and VVV. In conclusion, GV and VVV were differently correlated with clinical parameters and were hardly correlated with each other. TIR was correlated with both mean HbA1c and VVV, suggesting that efforts to achieve optimal TIR are practical strategies to reduce VVV in patients with T2DM.

Objective: This study compares ambulatory glycemic profile and glycemic variability between pregnant women diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) receiving pharmacotherapy and healthy pregnant women without diabetes and assesses their correlation with fetal outcome.
Method: This was a case-control study involving 60 pregnant women (40 with T2DM and 20 healthy controls) in the third trimester of pregnancy. A flash glucose monitor device was applied over the upper arm to obtain the ambulatory glucose profile.

Background: Hemoglobin A1C (A1C) is a measure of long-term glycemic control. In a previous study using a single measure of A1C, we showed that it is related to postmortem cerebrovascular pathology. Here, we use annually collected A1C data to study the relationship of A1C average and variability over time with neuropathology in a large number of older adults with and without diabetes.

According to the federal register, up to 3,77 million elderly Russians have a confirmed diagnosis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2), the most important criterion for the effectiveness of treatment of which is the achievement of therapeutic control targets. At the same time, the structure of the algorithm for their assessment in elderly patients is quite complex and involves the analysis of many different parameters, including indicators of geriatric status. The aim of the study was to develop a digital clinical calculator for determining individual goals of DM2 control in elderly patients based on the principles of evidence-based medicine.

Aims: This study aimed to explore the association between glycemic variability (GV) and postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) incidence.
Methods: In this retrospective study, we included patients undergoing cardiac surgeries. GV was calculated as the coefficient of variation of blood glucose and categorized into tertiles based on its distribution.

Diabetes mellitus represents a significant and growing global health challenge, with its prevalence steadily increasing. Insulin therapy remains a cornerstone of diabetes management. Since its discovery in 1921, insulin has undergone substantial advancements, evolving from crude animal extracts to highly refined recombinant formulations and biosimilars.
