CGM in type 2 diabetes

Continuous glucose monitoring for people with type 2 diabetes.

Key point

CGM is strongly recommended for people with type 2 diabetes treated with insulin and those not treated with insulin, particularly when HbA1c is ≥7%.

How these numbers are counted

PubMed query, searched in titles and abstracts by publication date:

("continuous glucose monitor*"[tiab] OR CGM[tiab]) AND "type 2 diabetes"[tiab]

Trials: ClinicalTrials.gov studies first submitted in each 12-month window that match the same terms. A query can miss synonyms or catch unrelated papers, so treat counts as approximate.
