Remote Patient Monitoring in Diabetes: How to Acquire, Manage, and Use All of the Data
Open accessAbstract
The ability of patients and health care providers to use various forms of technology for general health has significantly increased in the past several years with the expansion of telehealth, digital applications, personal digital devices, smartphones, and other internet-connected platforms and devices. For individuals with diabetes, this also includes connected blood glucose meters, continuous glucose monitoring devices, and insulin delivery systems. In this article, the authors outline several steps to facilitate the acquisition, management, and meaningful use of digital diabetes data that can enable successful implementation of both diabetes technology and telehealth services in primary care clinics.

From Talk2Care: An LLM-based Voice Assistant for Communication between Healthcare Providers and Older Adults (2024) · cites this paper as [58]
The Abstract discusses telehealth and remote monitoring in diabetes care, not LLM-based public health interventions—the part of the sentence to which this citation is attached. Searches for LLMs, public health interventions, and related AI applications found no passage addressing that claim in our copy. (LLM, conf=0.74)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredGiven the limited work in multi-stakeholder contexts, our work uncovers AI's capability to address challenges in patient-provider communication.
“Given the limited work in multi-stakeholder contexts [58], our work uncovers AI's capability to address challenges in patient-provider communication.”
From Talk2Care: An LLM-based Voice Assistant for Communication between Healthcare Providers and Older Adults (2024) · cites this paper as [58]
The citation is attached to the assertion that work in multi-stakeholder contexts is limited, not to the citing authors’ finding about AI. The paper discusses roles for patients, clinicians, and clinic staff in remote diabetes monitoring (Abstract, page unavailable), but does not assess how much research exists in multi-stakeholder contexts. Searches for that research-gap claim found no supporting passage. (LLM, conf=0.73)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measured

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.
