<p>Self-Monitoring of Blood Glucose and Hypoglycemia Association During Fasting in Ramadan Among Patients with Diabetes</p>

Abstract: The study aims to assess current practices of patients with diabetes to control blood glucose levels during Ramadan. Patients and Methods: A cross-sectional approach has been used for collecting data through a structured and interview-based questionnaire to assess the association between self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) and hypoglycemia. The questionnaire has recorded information about demographics, duration of diabetes, and treatment of diabetes, and hypoglycemia complications faced during Ramadan. The… Show more

“…Fifth, if they had asymptomatic hypoglycemia, and finally, if they felt and treated hypoglycemia without checking. Mansouri et al 15 carried out a study on self-monitoring of blood sugar during Ramadan. They concluded that sugar levels fluctuated with age, and with better understanding and change in lifestyle, fasting can be made safe.…”

“…The risk prediction of hypoglycemia based on a physiological model is achieved by establishing equations based on pathological/physiological fundamental laws. Physiological models are mostly established based on patients' blood sugar data [14][15] , but only focusing on blood sugar changes makes it di cult to comprehensively assess the risk of hypoglycemia. In addition, a continuous glucose monitoring system is not affordable for everyone, so the promotion and applicability of this method are greatly limited.…”
