Key finding
Initial results showed benefit from DSMES with greater A1c reduction in those randomized to RT-CGM.
This study evaluated culturally tailored diabetes self-management education and support with real-time continuous glucose monitoring in Latino adults with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes, finding potential benefits in HbA1c reduction.

Study focus
This study evaluated culturally tailored diabetes self-management education and support with real-time continuous glucose monitoring in Latino adults with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes, finding potential benefits in HbA1c reduction.
This study highlights the importance of culturally tailored interventions in managing diabetes, particularly among Latino populations who may face unique challenges. Improved HbA1c levels can significantly reduce the risk of diabetes-related complications, making effective education and support vital for this community.
Effectiveness of interventions remains unclear due to mixed results. Sample size and demographic limitations may affect generalizability. Potential biases in self-reported outcomes could influence findings.

HbA1c reduction was greater in the RT-CGM group compared to education only.
Nutrition questionnaire scores improved slightly in both groups, with RT-CGM showing a score of -1.64.
Vigorous physical activity days increased by 1.08 in the RT-CGM group.
