Core Tip
Core Tip: Although blood glucose monitoring is the standard and most established approach for informing diabetes therapy, continuous glucose monitoring has seen a rapid increase in the number of users in recent years. Abnormal glucose metabolism in highland populations is a major health concern worldwide. This study focused on the accuracy of the FreeStyle Libre FGM system in highland populations.
