Discrepancies in glycemic metrics derived from different continuous glucose monitoring systems in adult patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Continuous glucose monitoring systems have been widely used but discrepancies among various brands of devices are rarely discussed. This study aimed to explore differences in glycemic metrics between FreeStyle Libre (FSL) and iPro2 among adults with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM).

Methods

Participants with T1DM and glycosylated hemoglobin of 7%-10% were included and wore FSL and iPro2 for 2 weeks simultaneously. Datasets collected on the insertion and detachment day, and those with insufficient quantity (<90%) were excluded. Agreements of measurement accuracy and glycemic metrics were evaluated.

Results

A total of 40 498 paired data were included. Compared with the values from FSL, significantly higher median value was observed in iPro2 (147.6 [106.2, 192.6] vs. 144.0 [100.8, 192.6] mg/dl, p < 0.001) and the largest discordance was observed in hypoglycemic range (median absolute relative difference with iPro2 as reference value: 25.8% [10.8%, 42.1%]). Furthermore, significant differences in glycemic metrics between iPro2 and FSL were also observed in time in range (TIR) 70-180 mg/dl (TIR, 62.8 ± 12.4% vs. 58.8 ± 12.3%, p = 0.004), time spent below 70 mg/dl (4.4 [1.8, 10.9]% vs. 7.2 [5.4, 13.3]%, p < 0.001), time spent below 54 mg/dl (0.9 [0.3, 4.0]% vs. 2.6 [1.3, 5.6]%, p = 0.011), and coefficient of variation (CV, 38.7 ± 8.5% vs. 40.9 ± 9.3%, p = 0.017).

Conclusions

During 14 days of use, FSL and iPro2 provided different estimations on TIR, CV, and hypoglycemia-related parameters, which needs to be considered when making clinical decisions and clinical trial designs.

Project description:BackgroundContinuous glucose monitoring (CGM) has shown potential in improving maternal and neonatal outcomes in individuals with type 1/2 diabetes, but data in gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is limited. We aimed to explore the relationship between CGM-derived metrics during pregnancy and pregnancy outcomes among women with GDM.MethodsWe recruited 1302 pregnant women with GDM at a mean gestational age of 26.0 weeks and followed them until delivery. Participants underwent a 14-day CGM measurement upon recruitment. The primary outcome was any adverse pregnancy outcome, defined as having at least one of the outcomes: preterm birth, large-for-gestational-age (LGA) birth, fetal distress, premature rupture of membranes, and neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) admission. The individual outcomes included in the primary outcome were considered as secondary outcomes. We conducted multivariable logistic regression to evaluate the association of CGM-derived metrics with these outcomes.FindingsPer 1-SD difference in time above range (TAR), glucose area under the curve (AUC), nighttime mean blood glucose (MBG), daytime MBG, and daily MBG was associated with higher risk of any adverse pregnancy outcome, with odds ratio: 1.22 (95% CI 1.08-1.36), 1.22 (95% CI 1.09-1.37), 1.18 (95% CI 1.05-1.32), 1.21 (95% CI 1.07-1.35), and 1.22 (95% CI 1.09-1.37), respectively. Time in range, TAR, AUC, nighttime MBG, daytime MBG, daily MBG, and mean amplitude of glucose excursions were positively associated, while time blow range was inversely associated with the risk of LGA. Additionally, higher value for TAR was associated with higher risk of NICU admission. We further summarized the potential thresholds of TAR (2.5%) and daily MBG (4.8 mmol/L) to distinguish individuals with and without any adverse pregnancy outcome.InterpretationThe CGM-derived metrics may help identify individuals at higher risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes. These CGM biomarkers could serve as potential new intervention targets to maintain a healthy pregnancy status among women with GDM.FundingNational Key R&D Program of China, National Natural Science Foundation of China, and Westlake Laboratory of Life Sciences and Biomedicine.
