Context: For the last 10 yr, continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) has brought up new insights into the accuracy of blood glucose analysis.Objective: Our objective was to determine how islet graft function was able to influence the various components of dysglycemia after islet transplantation (IT).Design and Setting: We conducted a single-arm open-labeled study with a 3-yr follow-up in a referral center (ClinicalTrial.gov identifiers NCT00446264 and NCT01123187).Patients: Twenty-three consecutive patients with type 1 diabetes (14 islet alone, nine islet after kidney) received IT within 3 months using the Edmonton protocol.Intervention: Intervention included 72-h CGM before and 3, 6, 9, 12, 24, and 36 months after transplantation.Main Outcome Measure: Graft function was estimated via beta-score, a previously validated index (range 0-8) based on treatment requirements, C-peptide, blood glucose, and glycated hemoglobin.Results: At the 3-yr visit, graft function persisted in 19 patients (82%), and 10 (43%) remained insulin independent. Glycated hemoglobin decreased in the whole cohort from 8.3% (7.3-9.0%) at baseline to 6.7% (5.9-7.7%) at 3 yr [median (interquartile range), P < 0.01]. Mean glucose, glucose SD, and time spent with glycemia above 10 mmol/liter (hyperglycemia) and below 3 mmol/liter (hypoglycemia) were significantly lower after IT (P < 0.05 vs. baseline). The four CGM outcomes were related to beta-score (P < 0.001). However, partial function (beta-score >3) was sufficient to abrogate hypoglycemia; suboptimal function (beta-score >5) was necessary to significantly improve mean glucose, glucose SD, and hyperglycemia; and optimal function (beta score >7) was necessary to normalize them.Conclusion: The four components of dysglycemia were not equally affected by the degree of islet graft function, which could have important implications for future development of beta-cell replacement. A beta-score above 3 dramatically reduced the occurrence of hypoglycemia. (J Clin Endocrinol Metab 97: E2078-E2083, 2012)
