RESUMO
Differences in the effectiveness of real-time continuous glucose monitoring (rtCGM) and intermittently scanned continuous glucose monitoring (isCGM) in type 1 diabetes (T1D) are reported. The impact on percent time in range of switching from an isCGM with glucose threshold-based optional alerts only (FreeStyle Libre 2 [FSL2]) to an rtCGM (Dexcom G7) with an urgent low soon predictive alert was assessed, alongside other secondary outcomes including hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and other continuous glucose monitoring metrics. Adults with T1D using FSL2 were switched to Dexcom G7 for 12 weeks. HbA1c and continuous glucose data during FSL2 and Dexcom G7 use were compared. Data from 29 participants (aged 44.8 ± 16.5 years, 12 male and 17 female) were analyzed. After switching to rtCGM, participants spent less time in hypoglycemia below 3.9 mmol/L (70 mg/dL) (3.0% [1.0%, 5.0%] vs. 2.0% [1.0%, 3.0%], P = 0.006) and had higher percentage achievement of time below 3.9 mmol/L (70 mg/dL) of <4% (55.2% vs. 82.8%, P = 0.005). Coefficient of variation was lower (39.3 ± 6.6% vs. 37.2 ± 5.6%, P = 0.008). In conclusion, adults with T1D who switched from isCGM to rtCGM may benefit from reduced exposure to hypoglycemia and glycemic variability.

Intensive lifestyle interventions are effective in preventing T2DM, but evidence is lacking for high cardiometabolic individuals in hospital settings. We evaluated a hospital-based, diabetes prevention program integrating cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for individuals with prediabetes. This matched cohort assessed individuals with prediabetes receiving the prevention program, which were matched 1:1 with those receiving standard care. The year-long program included five in-person sessions and several online sessions covering prediabetes self-management, dietary and behavioral interventions. Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression models estimated the 60-month T2DM incidence rate. Of 192 patients, 190 joined the prevention program, while 190 out of 10,260 individuals were in the standard-care group. Both groups had similar baseline characteristics (mean age 58.9 ± 10.2 years, FPG 102.3 ± 8.2 mg/dL, HbA1c 5.9 ± 0.3%, BMI 26.2 kg/m2, metabolic syndrome 75%, and ASCVD 6.3%). After 12 months, the intervention group only showed significant decreases in FPG, HbA1c, and triglyceride levels and weight. At 60 months, the T2DM incidence rate was 1.7 (95% CI 0.9-2.8) in the intervention group and 3.5 (2.4-4.9) in the standard-care group. After adjusting for variables, the intervention group had a 0.46 times lower risk of developing diabetes. Therefore, healthcare providers should actively promote CBT-integrated, hospital-based diabetes prevention programs to halve diabetes progression.
