Continuous glucose monitoring has transformed diabetes care, but are we fully using the data it provides? In 2026, time in range is moving beyond a simple CGM metric and becoming a formal therapeutic target in diabetes care. While A1C remains important, time in range (TIR) offers a more dynamic and …

The arrival of a once-weekly basal insulin option marks one of the most meaningful advances in insulin therapy in decades. For years, daily basal injections have been the standard of care for people with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. However, many patients struggle with adherence, missed doses, and therapeutic …

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. …

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 …

Could continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) soon become the norm in primary care? Once considered a specialty tool reserved for endocrinologists, CGM is now recommended far earlier in diabetes treatment — even for patients with type 2 diabetes on basal insulin alone. Despite these guideline shifts, primary care adoption has lagged. …

Could the conventional “lifelong treatment” model for type 2 diabetes be rethought? Recent trials suggest that short‑term intensive therapy may offer more than transient glycemic control—it might trigger lasting remission in newly diagnosed patients. Such interventions, combining aggressive pharmacologic therapy or insulin with lifestyle change, show potential to preserve β‑cell …

Diabetes is a chronic disease that affects millions of people worldwide. Insulin therapy is an important component of diabetes management, as it helps to regulate blood sugar levels and prevent serious complications. In recent years, advancements in insulin therapy have made it easier and more effective than ever before. This …

Insulin pumps are an invaluable tool for diabetes management, allowing patients to better regulate their blood glucose levels. While the technology behind insulin pumps is fairly straightforward, optimizing the settings can be a challenge for clinicians. This article will provide a guide for clinicians on how to assess patients for …

Insulin therapy is a cornerstone of diabetes management and can help individuals with diabetes regulate their blood sugar levels. Understanding the types of insulin, when and how to administer insulin, and how to titrate the dosage is essential for effective insulin therapy. This guide provides an overview of the different …
