Continuous Glucose Monitoring Identifies Youth with Prediabetes at Risk for Glycemic Progression
Key Points
To evaluate the effectiveness of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in identifying youth with prediabetes at risk of glycemic progression.
Compared CGM metrics to HbA1c levels in youth with prediabetes
Analyzed short-term glycemic progression outcomes
Assessed the predictive accuracy of CGM for identifying risk
CGM metrics were more effective than HbA1c in predicting glycemic changes
Youth identified with CGM had a higher likelihood of progression to diabetes
CGM may serve as a useful tool for early intervention strategies
Abstract
CGM metrics outperformed HbA1c in predicting short-term glycemic progression in youth with prediabetes, supporting CGM as a promising adjunctive tool for early risk stratification.
