The use of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) was linked to a reduced risk for diabetic retinopathy, a debilitating complication in adults with type 1 diabetes.
The study reviewed electronic health records for adults with T1D who were seen at both the Johns Hopkins Endocrine and Diabetes Center and the Wilmer Eye Institute in Baltimore, Maryland , from 2013 to 2021.During the 8-year period, 62.7% of patients used CGM ; 58.2% used insulin pumps; and 47.5% used both.
The primary outcome was the development of proliferative or nonproliferative diabetic retinopathy with or without macular edema.Overall, 44.4% of patients were diagnosed with diabetic retinopathy; 11.1% and 49.2% had nonproliferative diabetic retinopathy with and without macular edema, respectively, while 11.9% and 27.9% had proliferative diabetic retinopathy with and without macular edema, respectively.
