Continuous Glucose Profiles in Healthy People With Fixed Meal Times and Under Everyday Life Conditions
Authors' conclusion
By defining the time of meal intake, a clear pattern of distinct postprandial glucose excursions in participants without diabetes could be demonstrated and analyzed. The presented glucose profiles might be helpful as an estimate for adequate clinical targets in people with diabetes.
Study context
- Population
- People without diabetes; mean age 23.7 ± 5.7 years
- Participants
- 36 people
- Exposure
- Fixed meal times vs everyday life conditions
- Outcome
- Median glucose concentration
Methodological detailsdescriptive statistics, two simultaneously worn continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) sensors, CGM for up to 14 days; first 3 days run-in, excluded from analysis, Sensor data averaged and adjusted to capillary plasma-equivalent glucose values
- Descriptive statistics
- Two simultaneously worn CGM sensors
- CGM for up to 14 days; first 3 days run-in, excluded from analysis
- Sensor data averaged and adjusted to capillary plasma-equivalent glucose values
