Abstract
Results The rate of good adherence to SMBG recommended by a doctor was 85.0%. We identified three clusters: cluster 1 (low SMBG test frequency but high reference to Libre data, 17.7%), cluster 2 (high SMBG test frequency but low reference to Libre data, 34.0%), and cluster 3 (high SMBG test frequency and high reference to Libra data, 48.3%). Compared with other clusters, individuals in cluster 1 were younger, those in cluster 2 had a shorter Libre duration, and individuals in cluster 3 had lower time-in-range, higher severe diabetic distress, and high intake of snacks and sweetened beverages. There were no marked differences in the incidence of diabetic complications and rate of wearing the Libre sensor among the clusters.
