Impact of Body Composition and Anemia on Accuracy of a Real-Time Continuous Glucose Monitor in Diabetes Patients on Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis

Diabetes Technol TherPublished Exploratory analysis of a continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) accuracy study

Authors' conclusion

In summary, this real-time CGM demonstrated good accuracy in CAPD with minimal influence from body composition and anemia.

Study context

Population
Patients with diabetes on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD); age 64.7 ± 5.6 years (mean ± SD), 23 men, BMI 25.4 ± 3.9 kg/m², Hb 10.7 ± 1.3 g/dL941 paired readings
Participants
30 patients
Primary endpoint
MARD between paired sensor and YSI 2300 STAT venous glucose readings
Follow-up
8-h in-clinic session
Methodological details8-h in-clinic session with glucose challenge, Body composition evaluated using bioimpedance
  • 8-h in-clinic session with glucose challenge
  • Body composition evaluated using bioimpedance

Primary result

As reported in the abstract

Overall MARD, sensor vs YSI 2300 STAT venous glucose (n = 941 paired readings)

Overall mean absolute relative difference (MARD)

10.4%

95% CI 9.6–11.7

Further findings

Correlation of body composition with MARD

No correlations between BMI, extracellular water, relative hydration index, and lean or fat mass with MARD

Correlation of Hb with MARD

No correlation between MARD and Hb (r)
0.016, P > 0.05
