Identification of individuals with diabetes who are eligible for continuous glucose monitoring forecasting

Predicting glucose levels in individuals with diabetes offers potential improvements in glucose control. However, not all patients exhibit predictable glucose dynamics, which may lead to ineffective treatment strategies. We sought to investigate the efficacy of a 7-day blinded screening test in identifying diabetes patients suitable for glucose forecasting. Participants with type 1 diabetes (T1D) were stratified into high and low initial error groups based on screening results (eligible and non-eligible). Long-term glucose predictions (30/60 min lead time) were evaluated among 334 individuals who underwent continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) over a total of 64,460,560 min. A strong correlation was observed between screening accuracy and long-term mean absolute relative difference (MARD) (0.661–0.736; p
