Table 4. Comparison of variable parameters of continuous glucose monitoring between patients with mild fibrosis (F0–2) and severe fibrosis (F3–4).
Variable | Mild fibrosis (F0-2) | Severe fibrosis (F3-4) | P value | ||||
Average median blood glucose (mg/dl) | 108.1 | ± | 12.2 | 131.5 | ± | 34.3 | <0.00001 |
Average standard deviation (mg/dl) | 17.4 | ± | 5.2 | 39.7 | ± | 17.8 | 0.0022 |
Minimum blood glucose (mg/dl) | 81.7 | ± | 28.7 | 72.5 | ± | 26.4 | 0.9221 |
Maximum blood glucose (mg/dl) | 118.8 | ± | 12.5 | 237.5 | ± | 65.1 | 0.0019 |
ΔMin–max blood glucose (mg/dl) | 115.2 | ± | 22.8 | 165.0 | ± | 69.6 | 0.0029 |
Average median blood glucose: average median glucose of the patients during the 24-hour monitoring period.
Average standard deviation: average standard deviation of blood glucose of the patients during the 24-hour monitoring period.
Minimum and maximum blood glucose values: lowest and highest values, respectively, during the 24-hour monitoring period.
ΔMin–max blood glucose: difference between minimum and maximum blood glucose. Data are expressed as median ± standard deviation.
