Summary

This study tests whether using a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) helps kidney transplant recipients with type 2 diabetes keep their blood sugar in a healthy range. Eighty adults who received a kidney transplant within the past year and use insulin will wear a Dexcom G6 sensor that tracks glucose levels 24/7. The goal is to see if real-time monitoring improves 'time in range' compared to a blinded sensor that only shows data after 10 days.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Dexcom G6 continuous glucose monitor
What this could lead to
If it works, this could show that continuous glucose monitoring helps kidney transplant patients keep their blood sugar in a healthy range more consistently.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with only 80 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The device itself does not treat diabetes—it only tracks glucose levels.
