Background: Continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) have had a significant impact on the management of diabetes mellitus. We present the results of a multinational evaluation of the Cascade CGM (“C-CGM”) over 14 days of in-clinic and home use. Method: Each of the 57 enrolled type 1 diabetes mellitus and type 2 diabetes mellitus subjects wore 2 C-CGMs on the abdomen for 14 days. One part of the evaluation was the performance versus reference glucose values generated for 12 -hour in-clinic sessions on days 1, 4, 7, 10, and 14. Glucose blood samples were drawn every 15 minutes and analyzed with the Yellow Spring Instruments (YSI) 2300 glucose analyzer. The performance assessment on in-clinic days was based on paired YSI/CGM data points and on home-use days was based on paired fingerstick BGM (blood glucose monitoring)/CGM data points. Results: A total of 17 823 CGM/YSI data points during in-clinic use was analyzed. The mean absolute relative difference for glucose values between 100 and 400 mg/dL (MARD) and mean absolute difference for values between 40 and 100 mg/dL (MAD) were 11.5% and 15.1 mg/dL, respectively. The system accuracy during home use was 12.7% and 15 mg/dL for MARD and MAD, respectively. There were no serious adverse events or infectious complications reported. A modified algorithm “Hybrid Algorithm” was used in a prospective analysis of the in-clinic data, resulting in a MARD of 9.9% and MAD of 14.5 mg/dL. Conclusions: The performance of the C-CGM device over 14 days meets the safety and efficacy standards of CGM systems for managing blood glucose levels in people with diabetes. This was further confirmed when the C-CGM system was given approval for CE Mark in October 2019.

SUMMARY Objective: To evaluate the retention of information after participation in multidisciplinary group in patients with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) through a phone contact. Method: 122 pregnant women diagnosed with gestational diabetes were included. After diagnosis of gestational diabetes, the patients were referred to the multidisciplinary group where they received medical, nutrition and nursing guidelines related to the disease. After three days these patients received one telephone call from a nurse, who made the same questions regarding the information received. In the statistical analysis, results were presented as absolute and relative frequencies. Results: Most patients 119/122 patients (97.5%) were managing to do self glucose monitoring. Twenty-one patients (17.2%) reported having difficulty performing the blood glucose, especially finger pricking. When questioning whether the woman was following the proposed diet, 24/122 (19.7%) patients said they did not; the meal frequency was not reached by 23/122 (18.9%) of the women, and forty-seven (38.5%) of the women reported having ingested sugar in the days following the guidance in multidisciplinary group. Conclusion: Regarding the proposed treatment, there was good adherence of patients, especially in relation to blood glucose monitoring. As for nutritional control, we observed greater difficulty in following the guidelines demonstrating the need for long-term monitoring, as well as further clarification to the patients about the importance of nutrition in diabetes management.

Objective of the Review: To systematise the information on the incidence of diabetes mellitus (DM) in patients who had the novel coronavirus infection; on the features of virus mechanism activation and pathological cascades in the body; on potential ways to control blood glucose during COVID-19. Key Points. During the novel coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) associated with high death toll in all countries, specific groups of patients were identified, where the death rate was higher than the mean figures. These groups include DM patients. DM is associated with a high risk of severe coronavirus infection and is the second common comorbidity during COVID-19. DM, degree of its compensation and complications progression impact prognosis, coronavirus infection clinical course and survival. Therefore, effective teamwork of the healthcare professionals and patient is essential. The primary objective of coordination is creation of a clear algorithm of DM management during COVID-19: strict blood glucose monitoring and prompt intensification both of antihyperglycemic therapy and specific ethiopathogenetic management of COVID-19. Conclusion. DM patients require special attention and timely adequate assistance both in outpatient and inpatient settings. Long-term follow-up of DM patients after COVID-19 to minimise the risk of DM complications is also very important. Keywords: COVID-19, diabetes mellitus, novel coronavirus infection.
