Blood Glucose Control

Continuous glucose monitoring was once reserved for endocrinology clinics. Today, integrating CGM into primary care is essential as guidelines recommend earlier and broader use in both type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Yet many clinicians still feel unsure about how to interpret reports or fit CGM into a busy visit. …

Hospital discharge should mark a fresh start. However, for many patients, the period after a diabetes hospital discharge becomes a danger zone. The days following a hospital discharge for diabetes are often marked by hypoglycemia, medication confusion, and missed follow-up visits. In fact, the first 30 days often determine whether …

GLP-1 receptor agonists have transformed type 2 diabetes care, improving glycemic control, supporting weight loss, and reducing cardiovascular risk. However, disparities in GLP-1 use and access are becoming harder to ignore. Why do some patients gain access quickly while others face barriers at every step? Data suggest that prescribing patterns …

What if your next diabetes appointment started before you even walked in—an algorithm already having reviewed your CGM data, flagged risks, and drafted a care plan? That’s not science fiction. It’s the emerging reality of AI-powered workflows for diabetes care, where intelligent systems work behind the scenes to support clinicians …

Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming many aspects of diabetes care, and smart insulin management powered by AI is quickly becoming one of its most promising innovations. Tools that read continuous glucose monitor (CGM) data and suggest insulin changes are rapidly entering clinical use. But while these tools are powerful, they …

Menopause marks a major transition in a woman’s life, defined not only by the end of menstrual cycles but also by profound hormonal and metabolic changes. One often under‑recognized shift is the acceleration of cardiometabolic risk. Women in midlife frequently experience increased central adiposity, changes in glucose regulation, rising blood …

Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) continues to be one of the most dangerous acute complications faced by people with diabetes, particularly those on insulin or SGLT2 inhibitors. While traditional approaches rely on intermittent blood ketone checks, a new frontier is emerging—continuous ketone monitoring for DKA prevention. This article explores how this technology …

AI decision support in diabetes care is reshaping how clinicians manage continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) and insulin dosing. These tools deliver quick data-driven recommendations, raising key questions: How do we preserve clinical judgment? Where does AI end and provider expertise begin? This article explains how to safely evaluate and use …

With the release of the ADA 2026 diabetes sleep guidelines, the American Diabetes Association has officially elevated sleep and circadian rhythm health to core pillars of diabetes care—right alongside nutrition, physical activity, and medication. These new standards mark a significant shift toward more holistic and behavioral-focused approaches to managing diabetes. …

With diabetes technology evolving rapidly, clinicians face more choices than ever before. From continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) to insulin pumps and patch devices, today’s tools can transform diabetes care—but only when matched to the right patient. This article provides a comprehensive diabetes technology comparison, helping you understand each option’s features, …
