Table 1.

Assessment of intermittently scanned continuous glucose monitoring (isCGM) performance by means of median absolute relative difference (MARD) and median absolute difference (MAD). RCPG = rate of change in plasma glucose; n = number of points of comparison; OGTT = oral glucose tolerance test. Values are given as median (interquartile range).
