摘要
Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of blood glucose self-monitoring on glycemic control in patients with non-insulin-treated type 2 diabetes by performing a meta-analysis.Methods:Randomized controlled trials(RCTs)of the efficacy of blood glucose selfmonitoring were collected from the PubMed,EMBASE,Cochrane Library,CNKI,and VIP databases.Data were analyzed by RevMan 5.1 software.Results:Seven RCTs were included in this meta-analysis.The results indicated that blood glucose self-monitoring significantly reduced the glycated hemoglobin(HbA1c)level by 0.41%.Subgroup analysis showed that while implementation of a diabetes management regimen based on the blood glucose self-monitoring results effectively reduced the HbA1c level by 0.42%,no significant improvement in HbA1c level control was observed with the implementation of blood glucose self-monitoring alone.Conclusion:Blood glucose self-monitoring combined with diabetes management effectively improves glycemic control in patients with non-insulin-treated type 2 diabetes.
