Initial Clinical Testing of a Holographic Non-Invasive Contact Lens Glucose Sensor
Abstract
INTRODUCTION: The purpose of the present study was to determine the effectiveness of a new holographic contact lens glucose sensor for the non-invasive monitoring of blood glucose. METHODS: One fasting normal subject was given an oral challenge consisting of 44 g of glucose. The contact lens hologram signal and fingerstick blood glucose were measured over a 26- min period. RESULTS: The contact lens hologram signal appeared to track blood glucose well. The contact lens was comfortable and well tolerated. CONCLUSION: The holographic contact lens glucose sensor shows promise as a non-invasive home glucose monitor.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
