Description
Darkhabani and Ahmed traced glucose monitoring's evolution in this review from twenty twenty-five. Finger-stick meters ruled diabetes care for decades. Continuous monitors now stream readings from under the skin, with trend arrows and low-sugar alarms. The review compares the two technologies' strengths and limits.
It follows meters from early reflectance strips to connected modern devices. Monitors evolved from clinic-only retrospective tools to factory-calibrated personal wearables. Future paths include needle-free sensing and smarter algorithms. The Middle East and North Africa get special focus, given their high diabetes rates. The authors project strong growth in continuous monitor use there through twenty thirty-five, even as meters stay essential.
