Retrospective Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM) Study on Glycemic Response and Body Composition in College Students (RCSOGRABCICS)

8 september 2026 bijgewerkt door: He Eye Hospital

A Retrospective Study of Individual Glycemic Response Based on CGM Wearable Devices in Weight and Body Composition Management Among College Students

This retrospective study evaluates the real-world effect of individualized glycemic response-guided dietary management, based on continuous glucose monitoring (CGM), on weight and body composition in overweight and obese university students. All data for this analysis were retrospectively retrieved from the archived records of a randomized controlled trial conducted at He University, in which 60 students (body mass index [BMI] ≥ 24 kg/m² or elevated body fat percentage) had worn CGM sensors for 4 weeks. The archived records show that the exposed group (n = 30) had received individualized dietary guidance generated from their own glucose responses, including structured CGM reports, meal composition and eating-order advice, and standardized feedback, whereas the non-exposed group (n = 30) had worn CGM without receiving any dietary guidance. One non-exposed participant was excluded from this retrospective analysis for missing primary outcome data, leaving 59 participants for analysis. The archived dataset contains body composition (weight, body mass index [BMI], body fat mass, percent body fat, skeletal muscle mass, visceral fat level) and eating behavior records at Day 0, Day 28, and Day 90. This analysis examines whether the 4-week intervention produced sustained, fat-mass-driven improvements in body composition and whether changes in eating behavior mediated these effects.

Gedetailleerde beschrijving

Background: continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) technology is expanding from diabetes care to weight management in healthy populations. Individualized glycemic response-guided dietary management may improve weight loss efficiency, but whether a brief 4-week intervention produces sustained body composition benefits remains unclear.

Design: This is a retrospective analysis of data collected in a two-arm, parallel-group randomized controlled trial conducted at He University, Shenyang, China. No new intervention was administered and no new measurements were performed in the present study; all data were retrospectively extracted from existing archived records. Participants were classified into two cohorts according to the exposure documented in the archived data of the parent trial. The archived records document that 60 overweight or obese university students (aged 18-25 years) had been randomized 1:1 by a random number table in the parent trial, and that both groups had worn the GX-01S continuous glucose monitoring system for 4 weeks (28 days). The archived records show that the exposed group had received an individualized glycemic response-guided dietary intervention: weeks 1-2 served as a dietary behavior observation period (CGM glucose profiles and electronic food diaries), and weeks 3-4 comprised the individualized intervention, including structured CGM reports (glucose trend graphs, traffic-light food lists, individually glucose-sensitive time windows), dietary guidance on meal composition and eating order, and standardized researcher feedback. The archived records show that the non-exposed group had worn CGM without dietary guidance; CGM data were visible during weeks 1-2 and blinded during weeks 3-4.

Assessments: The archived dataset contains body composition measurements recorded with the InBody 120 bioelectrical impedance analyzer at Day 0 (baseline), Day 28 (end of the 4-week period), and Day 90 (follow-up), together with Dutch Eating Behavior Questionnaire (DEBQ) records at the same three timepoints. All values were retrospectively extracted; no additional measurement was performed for this study.

Outcomes: Primary outcomes of the parent study were time above range (TAR) change and body weight change, both derived from the archived records. This analysis focuses on body composition outcomes: weight, body mass index (BMI), percent body fat, body fat mass, skeletal muscle mass, visceral fat level, and segmental body fat across five body compartments, together with exploratory mediation analyses testing whether DEBQ subscale changes (restrained, emotional, and external eating) mediated the intervention effect.

Ethics: The parent study was approved by the Institutional Ethics Committee of He University, and all participants provided written informed consent. For this retrospective analysis of anonymized data, the ethics committee approved a waiver of renewed informed consent.

Studie Bevolking

Overweight and obese university students (aged 18-25 years) at He University, Shenyang, Liaoning, China, whose records are contained in the archived dataset of a randomized controlled trial of a 4-week continuous glucose monitoring (CGM)-guided personalized dietary intervention. Participants had a body mass index (BMI) ≥ 24 kg/m² or elevated body fat percentage (≥ 25% in men, ≥ 32% in women) and self-reported at least two unhealthy eating behaviors. Of the 60 participants enrolled in the parent trial (30 per group), 59 were included in this retrospective analysis (30 exposed, 29 non-exposed); one non-exposed participant was excluded for missing primary outcome data. All participants were free of diabetes, prediabetes, and other exclusion conditions defined in the study protocol.

Groep / Cohort
Exposed (n=30)
Participants whose archived records from the parent trial indicate that they had received a 4-week individualized glycemic response-guided dietary intervention based on continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) data: dietary behavior observation during weeks 1-2, followed by structured CGM reports, dietary guidance on meal composition and eating order, and standardized researcher feedback during weeks 3-4.
Non-exposed (n=29)
Participants whose archived records from the parent trial indicate that they had worn the CGM system for 4 weeks without receiving dietary guidance or feedback. CGM data were visible during weeks 1-2 and blinded during weeks 3-4. Participants maintained their usual diet and lifestyle. One of the 30 non-exposed participants enrolled in the parent trial was excluded from this retrospective analysis for missing primary outcome data.
