Beyond Traditional Glycemic Measures: CGM Glycemic Profiles Reveal Associations With Cardiometabolic Risk in Individuals Without Diabetes.
Article in Diabetes care, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveFasting plasma glucose (FPG) and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) may not fully capture the heterogeneity underlying dysglycemia or its associations with cardiometabolic risk factors (CMRFs). We cross-sectionally investigated whether continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) measures and glycemic profiles could reveal 10-year cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk and individual CMRFs among individuals without diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND
methodsWe included 1,356 participants without prevalent diabetes or CVD from the Framingham Heart Study, who wore a blinded Dexcom G6 Pro CGM for up to 10 days. CGM glycemic profiles were characterized using 1) binary classification of glycemic burden and variability and 2) unsupervised clustering of CGM measures. We performed multivariable-adjusted linear and logistic regression models to examine associations of CGM measures and profiles with 10-year CVD risk estimates (PREVENT equations) and individual CMRFs.
resultsParticipants' mean was age 59.3 years; 55.8% were women, and 92.6% were non-Hispanic White. CGM measures were positively associated with 10-year CVD risk estimates and CMRFs. For example, 1 SD higher % time >140 mg/dL (15.4%) was associated with 2% higher 10-year CVD risk estimates and 21-26% higher odds of hypertension and dyslipidemia, even after adjusting for FPG. Glycemic profiles representing higher CGM dysglycemia revealed discordance with traditionally defined glycemic status (FPG and HbA1c). Although 48.1-84.2% of individuals with traditionally defined prediabetes were included in CGM profiles representing higher dysglycemia, such profiles were associated with 6-7% higher 10-year CVD risk estimates, in addition to worse CMRFs.
conclusionsGlycemic measures reflective of continuous glucose dynamics may provide additional insights into cardiometabolic risk beyond traditional measures.
